572: Chapter 561: I Want a Genetic Potion 572: Chapter 561: I Want a Genetic Potion Facing the tight encirclent of the Fang Guild, the likelihood of breaking through was almost negligible.
Xu Ruolan knew the four people beside her were masters, but equally clear was the fact that she was their likely target.
The situation now allowed no room for multiple choices; Xu Ruolan could only make such a decision to prevent any harm coming to the four warriors.
“No, if we hand you over to them, how can we explain to Ning Fan?”
Ale was the first to disagree, staring firmly at Xu Ruolan.
Xu Ruolan shook her head, a bitter smile in her heart and a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
If not to go with them, would they choose to fight to the death?
She did not want the four warriors to lose their lives futilely because of her.
From their conversation, Xu Ruolan had realized that they had already fallen deep into the enemy’s den.
Resisting further was futile.
Xu Ruolan was calm, knowing that just with the four warriors, burdened with her, they could not break through.
Their only option was to survive and wait for Ning Fan.
anwhile, a killer wearing a lion mask also received a signal from Apollo.
“Miss Xu Ruolan, please, Lord Apollo has already agreed to your terms.”
As soon as he had spoken, countless warriors of the Fang Guild dropped down from the trees, completely surrounding them.
The four warriors prepared themselves for a big fight, while Xu Ruolan looked at them with pleading eyes and whispered softly, “Don’t do anything foolish!”
Ultimately, at Xu Ruolan’s persistent insistence, the group could only choose to surrender.
Five minutes later, several jeeps arrived across the savanna, and Xu Ruolan and her companions were led onto different vehicles.
This was North Africa, filled with high-minded anti-governnt militants and the nominally legitimate governnt forces, both factions liking to drape themselves in the banner of righteousness, yet engaging in inhumane acts.
The Fang Guild held a dominant position here with their headquarters situated in a border town between Egypt and Sudan.
In the town, child soldiers were a common sight, as arming them with an AK could make them killers.
Here, a chicken could be traded for a gun.
rcenaries and various ard factions were the visible majority in the town, but they were rely a front.
Secretly, it was the Fang Guild that controlled the town.
As the vehicles transporting Xu Ruolan and her companions entered the town, everyone hid.
This was the territory of the Fang Guild, and no one dared to show themselves at this ti.
So of Xu Ruolan’s group were blindfolded and weren’t unblindfolded until they had walked about half a kiloter after disembarking.
“Where are they?” Xu Ruolan asked while looking around.
The four warriors were no longer beside her, and she was now in a descending elevator.
The elevator sank a kiloter underground, where there was a steel base about the size of a small city, the headquarters of the Fang Guild.
Constructing this base had cost the Fang Guild imnse financial and human resources, taking a full two years to barely complete.
The assassin beside Xu Ruolan didn’t answer her, and the mont the elevator ca to a stop, he pushed her out.
A blinding light made it hard for Xu Ruolan to open her eyes, but as her vision slowly returned, she began to glimpse just the tip of the iceberg of this underground base.
The architecture had a strong sci-fi feel, with cold-toned steel and warriors wielding weapons that seed straight out of a sci-fi movie.
On the tallest building at the far end, the Fang Guild’s large flag was prominently displayed.
Xu Ruolan didn’t have extra ti to observe the whole scene as the person behind her hurried her to leave the area.
About five minutes later, she was taken into a room that resembled a space capsule.
Inside, a man stood with his back to her; he was evidently the master of this place.
“I warmly welco your arrival, Miss Xu Ruolan!”
Apollo turned around, his handso face adorned with an elegant smile, full of charm.
But for Xu Ruolan, Apollo’s charm was completely ineffective.
As Apollo took in Xu Ruolan’s beauty, a flash of astonishnt crossed his eyes, and he couldn’t help but inwardly comnd Asura on his good fortune to have a woman as angelically beautiful as her by his side.
Thinking about it, Apollo found his heart stirred by Xu Ruolan and also felt a twinge of jealousy towards Ning Fan.
“What exactly do you want?” Xu Ruolan coldly stared at Apollo.
Her expression was impactful even without seeing her smile—her cold poise had a flavor of its own.
Apollo chuckled softly and extended his fingers towards Xu Ruolan, saying, “You’re misunderstanding .
I’ve long heard of Miss Xu Ruolan and your accomplishnts in researching the Genetic Potion far exceed ours…”
The Fang Guild had always been researching the Genetic Potion, trying to cultivate a group of Super Warriors to conquer the globe, but they had been unable to overco key challenges.
However, that changed with Xu Ruolan’s arrival; they saw a light at the end of the tunnel.
After she completed her research on the Genetic Potion, they had sent people to seize it from her.
Unfortunately, their plan was perceived by Ning Fan, which led to a failed attempt—not only did they not get the material, but they also had their pieces in Zhonghai destroyed by Dragon Gate, and they lost a significant number of elite mbers.
After Apollo took over the Fang Guild, he also took the matter of the Genetic Potion very seriously, driven by ambitions even more grandiose than those of DiGulas and the others before him.
“Genetic Potion?
Don’t delude yourself, I will not aid you in researching the Genetic Potion!”
Xu Ruolan didn’t even consider before rejecting Apollo; all her knowledge about the Genetic Potion was locked in her mind, and she would never disclose it, not even in death.
Apollo had anticipated Xu Ruolan’s refusal, so he didn’t lose his temper but spoke with profound aning, “Don’t rush to reject ; who knows what might happen in the future?
Just because you refuse to assist us with the Genetic Potion now doesn’t an you will not in the future!”
Xu Ruolan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, a bad premonition rising in her heart, always feeling that the man in front of her harbored so conspiracy.
anwhile, as Apollo carefully sized her up, his gaze suddenly beca very aggressive, causing Xu Ruolan to beco extrely alert all at once.
“Oh right, I almost forgot, I still need to inform Asura about your visit here!”
