Chapter 987: Blockaded Laboratory?! I Heard You've Been Telling Everyone I'm Dead?
"Beep—"
The alarm sound suddenly rang out.
The corridor flashed red, and the space connecting to the outside was immediately blockaded.
The two remained unmoved, still watching inside.
The re-modification had already exceeded the usual ten minutes.
But they no longer had time to mind it.
After all, it's not that they didn't want to stop.
It's that they couldn't stop!
Electric flashes kept flickering, enveloping the whole room.
Explosions kept echoing, each one stimulating the two's nerves.
Their hearts also involuntarily kept beating along.
"With such a big setup… we won't get blown up, right?" Lao Liu worried.
"Pah pah pah, don't say such ill‑omened things, beware of a self‑fulfilling prophecy!" Lao Liao hurriedly covered his mouth.
"Sss—"
Suddenly, the big door at the end of the corridor opened.
More than ten Mecha Soldiers entered, guns drawn.
Seeing this, the two's eyelids twitched, and they instinctively raised their hands.
"What are you doing, treating the Company like a bomb laboratory?"
At that moment, a man in a suit slowly stepped out.
He bore a black lotus seal mark on his brow, his expression exuding an aloof superiority.
"Deputy Manager Gao?!"
The two saw the newcomer's complexion turn pale instantly.
Lao Liu hurriedly explained, "The Machine had a minor fault, so…"
Lao Liao promptly nodded in agreement.
Manager Gao glanced inside, his face darkening, "Overloaded transport, you two have such nerve!"
Lao Liu swallowed hard, forcing a dry laugh, "I guarantee I'll bear all the consequences."
"You'll take responsibility?" Manager Gao slightly lifted his chin, sneering, "You're just a researcher, what can you offer as collateral?"
Before Lao Liao could speak to compensate, he continued, "Your name is Liu Quan, right? I remember you."
"The last incident with the Strength Testing Device was caused by your department,"
"Now you're pointing the spear at the new instrument."
"Are you planning to empty the Company's assets completely?"
Lao Liao, seeing the unfavorable turn, flattered, "Manager, we don't have that much audacity."
Manager Gao ignored it, his eyes flashing suddenly.
He caught a glimpse of a silhouette amid the flickering electric light.
His pupils then contracted sharply.
"Gene Modification Warrior?!"
How could that be possible?
Who could survive in such a terrifying environment?
With that thought, he immediately ordered, "You several, go in and bring the people out!"
A Mecha Soldier hesitated, "Manager, the people inside may already be dead to the core."
Manager Gao's features twisted slightly, sneering, "Even a single corpse is worth more than all of you combined!"
"Right now, go in and bring the people out for me!"
Liu Quan and Liao Fei, hearing this, immediately retreated a few steps, obediently yielding their positions.
If they could truly bring the people out.
They had no objection.
At that moment, another Mecha Soldier suggested, "Manager, how about cutting the power first?"
Manager Gao glanced at him, retorting, "Do you think you're clever?"
"Each Laboratory is connected to an independent power source; only those above Supervisor level may access the main switch."
"Do you intend to blow this up, or make the Supervisor know that this Deputy Manager can't even handle such a trivial matter?"
At those words, everyone fell silent.
Since the incident had already occurred, the natural course was to minimize the loss first.
Now the major Laboratories are all undergoing re-modification; the Supervisor cares about the outcome.
She has always disliked hearing bad news.
With that in mind, the Mecha Soldier slowly approached the door.
He took a deep breath, gripped the Door Handle tightly, and then slowly opened it…
"Boom!"
A terrifying wave of heat surged out, instantly blasting the person away.
"Bang!"
The body slammed heavily against the wall, the front Mech Suit seemingly melted away completely.
The flesh and blood inside also dissolved together.
"Sss!"
The crowd, seeing this, couldn't help but gasp a breath of cold air.
Manager Gao's Brow tightened, a hint of fear showing in his eyes.
He never expected that overloaded transport would unleash such terrifying energy.
Even the Mecha Soldier couldn't withstand the First Place.
Then the Gene Modification warriors inside...
Is there still a need to rescue them?
Or perhaps...
Can the value of the corpses really outweigh so many people?
After weighing pros and cons for a moment, Manager Gao immediately ordered, "Blockade Laboratory!"
What?!
Liu Quan became frantic and said, "Absolutely not, there are still people inside!"
Liao Fei also said, "Yes, Manager, I can guarantee he is still alive!"
Once Blockade, it is tantamount to declaring destruction.
At that time, the Demon comrades inside would thus fall into permanent ruin.
They would die on the spot.
"Do you think I look like a three‑year‑old child?" Manager Gao said coldly.
"No!"
Liu Quan organized his words and said, "Inside is the sole talent of our department; all this is to ensure the Re-modification goes smoothly!"
Pressed into a corner, he had to reveal the truth.
He hadn't said earlier because he didn't want Su Yang inside to take the blame.
He also didn't want to make the matter blow up.
At the same time it was to buy time.
But he didn't expect him to be so decisive.
"Audacious! What status do you have, and you dare direct my work?" Manager Gao waved his hand.
Immediately the Hand Ring Projection displayed the Company management interface.
He quickly operated, pulling up the 70‑level Laboratory management page.
Then he applied Electric Shock to Lab No. 45, pressing "Blockade".
"Please enter the permission code."
Manager Gao's eyes flickered, and without hesitation entered four digits.
"Blockade begins!"
Sight this, Liu Quan and Liao Fei were utterly despondent.
They thought, "It's over!"
A thick wall suddenly rose from the ground, sealing all six sides.
Then it kept pressing inward.
The so‑called Blockade is literally that.
It is also a physical‑level measure.
When the Blockade is complete, Su Yang inside will inevitably be crushed into mush.
Then it won't just be a minor failure.
They will also face cruel punishment.
By then nothing will remain.
Thinking of this, both felt a myriad of bitterness.
"Had we known it would be like this, we should have listened to you from the start, steady and sure," Liao Fei sighed.
"Saying this now is useless; we can only pray not to be shot," Liu Quan felt as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
"Alas, fate plays tricks on us," Liao Fei shook his head helplessly.
Since encountering Su Yang, nothing good seems to have happened.
That guy truly lives up to his name.
A proper Demon.
"Beep beep—"
The Hand Ring suddenly emitted a sound.
Manager Gao's Brow furrowed, and he stared.
"Blockade terminated!"
Hm?
It was his first time encountering this, and he kept ordering to continue.
But the wall remained unmoved.
"What's going on?"
Manager Gao's face showed puzzlement.
"Dong!"
Suddenly, a huge bang echoed.
A metal wall several meters thick instantly bore a fist imprint.
Thump thump!
Again, two successive explosions roared, their Vibration so great that the ground trembled as well.
Sight this, a flash of brilliance passed through Liao Fei and Liu Quan's eyes.
Their Brain suddenly flashed with a possibility.
Could it be…
Rumble!
The next moment, the wall was instantly ripped open by brute force, leaving a huge hole.
A naked Silhouette slowly stepped out from it.
Manager Gao, right?
I just practice a bit of Electrotherapy…
I heard you told people outside that I was dead—what's the story?
