Gurgle gurgle...
Accompanied by a grating sound, Xiao Zheng saw that the passage ahead was filled with a thick green liquid. Bubbles continually erged from the surface, only to burst and spew out a foul gas.
Evidently, this was one of the base’s defense chanisms. The thick green liquid in the passage was not only highly toxic but also volatile. Just standing outside could potentially lead to poisoning.
Black Rose murmured, "Previously, we snuck in quietly, so we didn’t encounter these. I didn’t expect the defense of this base to be so formidable. Forcing our way in is quite difficult."
Xiao Zheng said, "Follow ."
With that, a surge of Gang Qi emanated from Xiao Zheng, enveloping both of them. Then Xiao Zheng proceeded forward. Black Rose hesitated slightly but gritted her teeth and followed.
As a result, when they stepped onto the thick green liquid, it felt as if they were walking on solid ground, with no sensation of sinking, and the gas in the air was completely isolated outside.
"Amazing,"
Black Rose exclaid softly.
After passing through the passage, they found themselves in a spacious area, likely a leisure and relaxation spot within the base. Continuing inward should lead them to the central control room.
"Damn it!"
In the control room, the leader saw Xiao Zheng and Black Rose arrive unscathed at that area and couldn’t help but growl, his hand trembling.
He was sowhat afraid. He had never seen such a terrifying martial artist! All the defenses of this base seed non-existent in front of him.
At this mont, the base’s guards brought in Bai Mudan.
"Hehe, beautiful lady, how have you been faring here with us?" The leader smiled as he approached Bai Mudan.
"Hmph!"
Bai Mudan’s expression was icy cold.
The leader, noticing this, remained unbothered and chuckled, "Though treating won well is a gentleman’s necessary virtue, at this ti, I’m afraid I have to trouble you a bit."
Saying this, the leader’s eyes turned cold, and he ordered, "Open the death chamber!"
"Yes." A staff mber typed a command on the keyboard, and a red symbol with a skull flashed on the screen, appearing extrely dangerous, followed by a faint click.
The control room’s floor imdiately parted, revealing a large hole, and then a cylindrical transparent container slowly rose up.
The leader smiled coldly and waved his hand, prompting the soldiers holding Bai Mudan to violently push her into the container.
The leader stepped forward, pressed a red button on the container, and a layer of transparent glass slowly descended, trapping Bai Mudan inside.
"What are you doing?"
Bai Mudan shouted angrily.
The leader chuckled, "This death chamber, perhaps you don’t know what it is. Once sealed, it will slowly fill with a peculiar liquid until the entire container is full. During this process, you will feel death approaching step by step; that feeling, it’s quite wonderful."
Bai Mudan’s eyes showed no fear as she retorted coldly, "At worst, it’s just death. What’s there to fear!"
The leader laughed, "Perhaps it’s more than just death." With that, he snapped his fingers and said, "Show this lady the surveillance video."
"Yes." A staff mber brought up a video displaying the scene of Xiao Zheng and Black Rose in the spacious area.
"Black Rose!"
Seeing this, Bai Mudan exclaid.
Imdiately, she saw Xiao Zheng, her surprise deepening.
Why are they here?
At this mont, the leader said, "Let those two outside see this scene."
In that spacious area, a sudden flash of light appeared, and a projector displayed the control room’s scene on the wall, very clearly.
Xiao Zheng and Black Rose, walking towards the depths of the base, saw the video and stopped, their faces showing surprise.
On the screen, the leader seed to look through it at Xiao Zheng and Black Rose, pointed at Bai Mudan, and chuckled, "Do you see? This should be the person you’re looking for! Now she’s in my hands! I only need to give one command..."
At this, the leader snapped his fingers, and the thick green liquid in the transparent container slowly rose, subrging Bai Mudan’s ankles.
Bai Mudan let out a muffled groan, her face turning pale, but she still held back her scream, though her trembling body and the cold sweat on her forehead showed the horror of the torture she was enduring!!
"Bai Mudan..." Seeing this, Black Rose exclaid, her eyes turning red. She had been with Bai Mudan since childhood, their bond incredibly deep. Now seeing Bai Mudan being tortured before her eyes, yet being unable to do anything, felt utterly powerless.
The leader laughed heartily, "I want you to leave imdiately! Leave this base! Otherwise, this beauty..."
The leader walked up to the transparent container imprisoning Bai Mudan, tapping on the glass with his finger. Xiao Zheng said, ’She will et her demise.’
As he spoke, the thick green liquid continued to rise, now subrging Bai Mudan’s calves. It was clear that the skin and muscle below Bai Mudan’s knees had already started to rot due to the imrsion in the thick green liquid!
This scene defied description with re words like ’horrifying.’
Bai Mudan’s gaze was icy, and she spoke with a trembling voice, "Black Rose, Xiao Zheng, don’t bla . Break through this base! They must have a major plot against Huaxia. We can’t delay the big picture because of ."
The tremor in her voice was due to the unbearable pain caused by the corrosion of her skin and muscle. Yet until now, she hadn’t uttered a cry of pain or a moan.
Even the leader’s expression changed slightly, cursing, "What a tough woman!"
Through the screen, watching Bai Mudan’s agony, the pain in Black Rose’s heart was likely tenfold more intense!
She bit her lip hard, drawing blood, clenched her fists, digging her nails into her palms. She used all her strength to stay calm and not rush to save Bai Mudan imdiately.
Black Rose knew that at this mont, the bigger picture was the priority! Even if Bai Mudan were to sacrifice herself here, they couldn’t let anyone in this base escape, or else their conspiracy against Huaxia might succeed!
