Chapter 764: Lots of Fun in the Sanatorium 49, New Year's Extra Chapter

He turned his wrist, and the fine, sharp poison needles shot out.

Each poison needle was a tool for paralyzing nerves.

Several assassins didn't even have time to fire a bullet before the poison needles struck them squarely in the brow.

Bai Wenran seized the opportunity, quickly grabbed a few submachine guns, and began fighting the assassins.

Shen Yan moved swiftly and strangely; for a moment the assassins couldn't catch his silhouette.

Just seeing him meant another person would fall.

Seeing Shen Yan weaving through the hail of bullets, Jin Chen could no longer stand still and rushed forward to help.

The bearer of two E-crystals possessed speed and strength beyond ordinary comparison,

Jin Chen darted between the bullets, shaking off the pursuing Qiao Qing, gripping two military blades that had come his way, his sharp eyes hiding killing intent.

A black shadow flashed.

Several assassins dropped instantly, without any defense.

Just then, the battle turned.

Qiao Qing pressed his earring twice; half a minute later, the sound of helicopters rose, hovering above the sanatorium.

In midair, the doors of three helicopters opened, and dozens of high-precision weapons were mounted.

Smoke grenades were released first.

In an instant, smoke filled the entire beach, visibility plummeting.

Even face to face, one might not see the person before them.

In the thick smoke, Shen Yan could no longer keep jumping in the trees; he could only rely on instinct to jump down, then dodge sideways at the waist.

Smelling a familiar scent, he was greatly surprised and whispered, "Can you find me?"

"Of course, no matter where you are."

A low voice came from beside his ear; Shen Yan narrowed his phoenix eyes and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile.

Though the smoke remained thick, Jin Chen seemed utterly unaffected, agilely dodging bullets, taking the submachine gun from Shen Yan's hand, and firing single‑handed at the air.

Each shot precisely destroyed a weapon.

Continuous blasts echoed.

The smell of gunpowder permeated the air, and the battle continued.

After an unknown amount of time, bullets grew scarce.

When the thick smoke cleared, all the assassins on the ground had been dealt with.

The helicopters in midair were also destroyed by their own weapons exploding, crashing into the sea.

Qiao Qing was shot in the shoulder, his fingers trembling as he stared at the corpses on the ground; his gaze flickered, and he slowly lifted his head to see Jin Chen and the two others walking back.

Jin Chen's face still bore a wound, but it healed quickly; Bai Wenran also suffered several injuries, her eyes growing ever fiercer.

Only Shen Yan, under Jin Chen's deliberate protection, remained completely unharmed.

Jin Chen tossed aside the empty gun, wiped the blood not his own from his cheek with the back of his hand, and his eyes turned cold.

"I'll remind you one last time: Sheng Jiping has no vital signs left; you can't save him."

"Even if my blood were useful, it must be reserved for Shen Yan's transfusion; there's none left to give you."

"With this broken body, losing any more blood would kill him!"

Qiao Qing stiffly pulled at his lips and closed his eyes.

"I was right after all."

He stared at Jin Chen, his tone tinged with mockery.

"You've long since recovered, haven't you? Pretending to be ill while secretly investigating."

Jin Chen's body suddenly stiffened; he slowly turned to meet Shen Yan's surprised and angry gaze.

It's over, over, over!

He's going to be scolded by his wife!

"Forget it……"

Until his own situation was hopeless, he never imagined that Jin Chen, bearing two E-crystals, could be this formidable.

Qiao Qing clutched his shoulder, his eyes utterly desolate.

Being able to avenge Jiping left him quite satisfied.

He would never again see Sheng Jiping's fine smile in this lifetime—a real pity.

Liu Sheng brought out Chen Qing, who had a bullet lodged in his chest, cursing as he walked.

"Good heavens, Old Master! Jin Team, can you believe this? This thing is actually a robot—no matter how you kill it, it won't die; I even thought I'd seen a ghost in broad daylight!"

The bound Chen Qing slowly lifted his head toward Qiao Qing, tilted it slightly to sense danger, and tried to break free and rush over.

"Release him; the central weapon system has already been destroyed by you—he has no capacity to resist."

Qiao Qing's tone returned to calm, as if he had made a decision.

Liu Sheng glanced at Jin Chen, who nodded.

Breaking free, Chen Qing shielded Qiao Qing behind him at great speed.

"This is my final order to you."

Qiao Qing transmitted the command into his palm.

"……"

Chen Qing nodded in reply, accepting the order, but perhaps something was triggered, and he autonomously answered: "I suggest you not do this; the master said you cannot die."

Qiao Qing lowered his head, his eye sockets burning again.

"He gave you to me, so you must obey my orders."

"Yes."

Chen Qing's central system was damaged, already entered repair state, speech somewhat stuttering.

After delivering the command, Qiao Qing glanced at the noble clan, turned head and spoke to Jin Chen and them.

"My ship will arrive in half an hour."

"Not good! Jin Team!!"

Shangguan Hao's voice came from afar, his running posture very wild.

He ran while pointing at the sky.

"Jiang Qiu, that brat, has gone mad! He's going to destroy this island!"

Everyone's faces changed in shock, they looked up at the sky.

At the same time.

The sky lit up with a dazzling fireworks signal flare.

Thick smoke formed several characters.

"Countdown: one day."

"The second nurse who died was killed by Jiang Qiu!"

Qiao Qing also stared in shock, his gaze meeting Jin Chen's, inexplicably.

"This isn't something I told him to do!"

"Just now I was wondering where Jiang Qiu ran off to after poisoning!"

"Surprise~"

Jiang Qiu's voice came from the top floor of the sanatorium.

Everyone looked up.

He wore an exquisite black long windcoat, his slightly curled hair fluttering in the air, his handsome face now full of smiles.

He waved at the people on the beach, tone excited.

"Hey, do you like this surprise?"

"I am your beloved magician, Jiang Qiu."

The corners of his mouth always held a smile, his right hand rotated a few times in midair, placed over his heart, slightly bowed, extremely elegant.

Shangguan Hao shouted loudly.

"You little brat! What are you trying to do!"

"Don't rush, my friend, and listen to me explain slowly."

His index finger pressed to his lips, signaling Shangguan Hao to be quiet, Jiang Qiu looked at Jin Chen, smile radiant.

"Jin Team, actually I really dislike E-crystal."

"Since you started developing it, I've felt it's not a good thing, and still do."

"It causes me great pain."

"Do you know, the E-crystal inside my body has also begun to mutate, faster than Yi Fei An's."

Shangguan Hao and Bai Wenran exchanged glances, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

Jin Chen remained very calm, raised his head and said loudly: "I can remove it completely."

"It's a pity that my mistakes are no less than Yi Fei An's; I don't deserve to do this."

Jiang Qiu burst into laughter again, his laugh sounding bleak.

"The lab explosion actually had my share in it."

"But now I've figured it out; rather than trying every means to cling to life, it's better to leave with all the E-crystal."

"Let's die together."

As his words fell, he raised his hand and waved a few times, like dancing.

"Here... I've set up many electronic bombs; just press and they'll instantly explode."

"The power is enough to destroy this small island."
