Chapter 188

The door was smashed to pieces.

What came into view was a long stone corridor.

Hoshino Ki walked along this stone corridor.

Electric lights were installed on the walls on both sides of the corridor for illumination.

It seemed this was indeed their main base, as it even had specialized lighting equipment.

Many stone doors were also set up along both sides of the corridor.

Behind each stone door, there should be an independent space.

The noise of Hoshino Ki kicking the door had clearly alarmed many people.

Because sounds were coming from those stone rooms.

Hoshino Ki chose one direction and rushed forward instantly.

Just then, two people walked out holding pistols.

They died under his scythe the moment they looked at Hoshino Ki.

Hoshino Ki peeked into the stone room.

He discovered it was a small dormitory.

The conditions were decent; other than being a bit small, there were no issues.

The other people in this room saw Hoshino Ki's figure.

They all screamed in panic.

Hoshino Ki didn't waste words and finished them off directly.

He continued to fly forward.

Since he had been discovered...

Then let's have a thorough party!

He couldn't kill people casually outside...

But here, that wasn't necessarily the case!

He was doing a good deed.

It was a major task for the country and the people!

The stone doors were opened one by one, and the people inside rushed out with weapons.

Hundreds of people surged into the long corridor instantly.

Hoshino Ki observed the terrain while swinging the scythe in his hand.

Occasionally, he had to switch weapons, pulling out dual pistols to fire indiscriminately.

This kind of "reckless slashing and chopping" attack was truly...

Refreshing!

Finally!

After killing everyone in the corridor, he reached the end of the stone hall.

"Click-clack! Snap-snap..."

Hoshino Ki reloaded his guns and tucked them back into his waist.

He had reached the turn.

0

Hoshino Ki turned and continued walking.

This time, two sharp long swords came toward him.

"Clang!"

The long swords shattered into four pieces the moment they collided with the scythe.

Just mere scrap metal swords.

Did they deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as his Death Scythe?

The next second.

Hoshino Ki swung his blade and severed the heads of the two.

He raised his head and looked at the two who had fallen.

There were still quite a few people left.

The deaths of the two just now didn't bring any fear to those behind.

They rushed toward Hoshino Ki with long swords in their hands.

Hoshino Ki looked toward the front of the road.

It was still an endless corridor.

However, there were no more rooms on either side of this corridor.

Clearly!

The front of the road was the entrance to this stone chamber.

There were too many people!

But Hoshino Ki's movements didn't stop.

The Death Scythe spun and danced continuously under Hoshino Ki's movements.

Hoshino Ki was now like a god of slaughter possessed.

He didn't feel tired, nor could he feel any pain.

Even if they hit Hoshino Ki with the long swords in their hands.

It wouldn't have any effect on his body at all.

Inside the corridor!

Blood splattered, limbs fell!

Hoshino Ki moved forward while keeping an eye on the corridor entrance.

Personnel were constantly pouring out from the entrance.

While passing a stone room where no personnel were pouring out.

Hoshino Ki saw signs labeled "Long Sword," "Shield," and the like on the stone door.

It looked like this was a place for storing weapons.

Another bloody storm.

Hoshino Ki continued to walk forward.

His dark eyes glanced around.

The corridor here was wider and deeper than other places.

He could already see the end of the corridor.

At the end was a tightly closed stone door, with heavy guards stationed in front of it.

"He's killed his way to Exit 5, hurry up and get in there!"

A one-armed man behind Hoshino Ki shouted loudly.

So it was an exit?

And it was Exit 5!

It seemed there were quite a few exits here!

Hoshino Ki noted the locations of the passages one by one.

He passed another stone room.

The label on the stone room door was "Test Subject 2002."

The door was locked with an iron chain.

Hoshino Ki looked toward the glass window on the stone door.

He saw a man locked in that room.

The man's eyes were bloodshot, and he began to roar crazily the moment he made eye contact with Hoshino Ki.

Hoshino Ki turned his gaze to other stone rooms again.

He saw the stone doors were labeled "Test Subject 2003, Test Subject 2004..."

There were more and more people blocking the way ahead.

Getting past easily wouldn't be a simple matter...

Hoshino Ki once again cast his gaze toward the test subjects inside the stone room.

A flash of inspiration struck him, and he drew his dual pistols, aiming at the lock on the stone door.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound of gunfire rang out, and the stone door opened.

"He’s let the test subjects out!"

A staff member standing not far from Hoshino Ki screamed desperately.

"Bang!" A loud crash echoed.

That staff member was instantly struck by an unknown attack and pulverized into a pulp of flesh.

"Hahahaha!"

Maniacal laughter reverberated through the long corridor.

Dozens of test subjects walked out from the stone room.

They were the "failures" of scientific progress.

Thus, there was no humanity to speak of in them.

They killed anyone they saw.

The entire corridor had become their playground.

Screams suddenly erupted, shaking the very heavens.

Confidence is a good thing.

But a person’s true worth lies in self-awareness.

Although Hoshino Ki was strong—incredibly strong—

facing hundreds of people who didn't fear death, it was unlikely he could walk out alive.

Even if his body wouldn't suffer any serious injuries,

there would always come a moment when his energy was exhausted.

Hoshino Ki nimbly dodged the attacks of the test subjects.

He leaped up, kicked off the wall, and soared forward.

Using the heads of the people below as leverage,

Hoshino Ki reached the end of the corridor in the blink of an eye.

He jumped to the entrance and pushed the stone door shut.

Using the stone door as a boundary, he isolated himself from those people outside.

Screams flooded in from all sides.

If they wanted to play, they could all play together.

Why keep them locked up all the time?

They were truly immoral.

Hoshino Ki turned and continued walking without a shred of pity.

No matter how they pounded on the door outside, his heart did not soften.

The flames on the stone walls ignited automatically as Hoshino Ki entered.

After reaching the end, there was another passage leading underground.

Hoshino Ki took a leap and jumped straight down.

He followed the deep tunnel, constantly descending.

Before long, he arrived at the second underground level.

Just as he walked in,

there was another familiar corridor, still lit by the automatic flame lighting equipment.

Hoshino Ki ran along the corridor.

Just as he was about to run out of the corridor, a large amount of panting sounds came from within.

"???"

How could such sounds exist in a place like this?

Hoshino Ki hid his body and slightly poked his head out.

The scene before him was truly shocking.

The structure of this level was clearly different from the one above.

This place had been built into a massive flat plaza.

The plaza was enormous.

Large enough to accommodate thousands of people.

There were also many exits set up around the plaza

to facilitate the movement of personnel.

The shocking part was not the size of this plaza.
