United States.
New York State.
Northern region.
A secluded manor deep in the mountains.
Underground.
Nurous scientific researchers are busily at work.
Aside from clocks, it’s difficult for them to tell whether it’s morning or night; their internal biological clocks are all out of sync due to long hours in the laboratory and the loss of ti awareness caused by focusing on their work.
Normally.
The tedious research makes for a somber atmosphere.
However.
Today.
The place is bustling.
In a side hall on the third sub-level.
Over a dozen brawny, bare-chested n are sweating profusely, continuously punching and kicking against a punch force tester, striking with full force. Exerting themselves beyond their physical capabilities, their bodies flush red.
Outside the circle of glass surrounding them.
Stand dozens of researchers related to the project.
This place.
Is Kovalro’s second largest experintal base.
Thanks to technology sharing with Jars, they are aware of the effects of the Transcription Fluid and have produced quite a few finished products based on the data, ready for further testing, with two labs moving forward in tandem.
The reason is simple.
Insurance.
Otherwise.
If only one laboratory does the work and soone secretly withholds information, that would be problematic. Therefore, for important experints, there are always control groups. Currently, this lab is conducting the sa experints as Jars’s side.
Looking at the promising data.
Many researchers are buoyed up with excitent.
Such stimulant drugs.
Are rely the beginning; many of their revolutionary experints are based on this, and now that the foundation has been laid, it’s akin to a materials revolution, bringing about technological leaps of breakthrough proportions.
"Get more experintal subjects; we can’t fall behind Jars."
The head of the base ordered enthusiastically.
"Yes," replied the head of security.
Experintal subjects.
It is no less difficult to find them in the United States than in other countries.
Co nightfall, the streets are full of holess people, whose existence they see as a waste of food and a threat to social order; they believe it would be better to let them contribute to the grand cause in their remaining capacity.
Imdiately.
The head of security made a phone call.
Using the organization’s nurical code language.
He tasked soone in New York with the preparation.
While everyone was eagerly discussing the experintal data and envisioning the future, what they didn’t know was that a tiny spider robot had descended from above, landing stealthily behind them.
A roll.
It made its way under a table in the side hall.
A flicker of light.
An object the size of a brick.
Suddenly appeared.
Then, the magnet on it quickly attached to the iron underside of the table. The ’brick’ was the sa color as the table, and even if soone saw it, they would only think it was a part of the table.
Imdiately after.
The robot, like a hardworking little bee.
Buzzed through all the key locations.
This experintal base.
Tang Qing actually knew about it long before.
Previously.
When his second uncle and Liu Qian followed Chai Ren to visit here for the first ti and went hunting in the forest, they encountered a large pack of wolves, which was the creation of this laboratory, though the details remained unclear.
But less than a day after those wolves died, the laboratory sent quite a few people to investigate and perform autopsies on the wolves; in the end, the issue ca to nothing—after all, they couldn’t expect Mu Jian and the others to pay compensation.
This ti.
Tang Qing had no intention of completely destroying the place; otherwise, he would need to find another playing field for his next move, which would be quite troubleso. He simply decided to place his pieces on this chessboard and not rush to flip it yet.
Laboratory.
Data room.
Small-scale data center.
Key corridors.
Elevator.
Ergency escape routes.
...
’Bricks’ were placed in all of them; in total, they didn’t exceed two tons this ti, a very ’polite’ move. Finally, when the last ’brick’ was placed in the designated spot.
Countdown.
Begin.
00:09:59.
The whole process.
Not a single fighter appeared.
Technology.
Changes the world.
That’s what’s happening right now.
In so infiltration tasks, these robots perform so well that after being disguised, they can lurk in a place for a year and a half as if it’s nothing, and even find ti to recharge occasionally.
...
Ten minutes.
Passed quickly.
Side hall.
’Boom~~~’
The huge shockwave made every person in the side hall et their maker, ’Boom boom~~~’ At the sa ti, all the ’bricks’ emitted deadly flashes of fire.
"Sizzle... Boom... Boom... Boom."
All three elevators fell at once.
Chaos.
Began.
Everyone headed towards the ergency exits to evacuate, but although Tang Qing didn’t plan to destroy the place, he didn’t intend to let them get away safely. If everyone got out unscathed, how would they attract the rescue teams?
The main lighting failed.
The entire base was shrouded in the dim light of ergency lighting.
"All elevators have been destroyed, the ergency exits have collapsed." A group of surviving researchers rushed to a main gate, and after a struggle, managed to pry it open, only to hear bad news from those coming from the other side.
"What do we do?"
"Is there another way out?"
"There is a ventilation duct underground that leads to the mountains."
A security personnel said.
"Then let’s go."
"But the duct’s exit is over a hundred ters up a cliff; even if we get out, it’s no use... I don’t have the clearance to know about evacuation routes." He was just a regular security officer and truly didn’t know about the base’s escape routes.
...
Normally.
These people, who treat human life like dirt.
Also panicked.
When they conducted experints, they didn’t care about others’ lives, but that doesn’t an they didn’t cherish their own lives. Their lives are ant for the pursuit of truth, they can’t die in such a place.
...
What happened here.
Quickly.
Was reported back to headquarters from this place’s second control center.
For a mont.
The upper class of ’Kovalro’ were all shocked.
xico.
"Check, find out who did this," the Caucasian angrily ordered. With such a big incident, he definitely couldn’t shirk responsibility. Now, the main thing was to try to mitigate the damage.
Without his command.
His subordinates started to get busy.
They retrieved the surveillance footage.
Suddenly.
"We found it."
The revelation sent a jolt through the Caucasian man. That was fast.
When his eyes focused on the large screen, his heart was racing like hundreds of alpacas galloping and jumping. The scene that unfolded before him was like sothing out of a Jas Bond movie.
A man.
Dressed in security personnel uniform.
Entering and exiting various important rooms, then, from the backpack he carried, he took out ’bricks’ one by one, like he was in his own ho, and placed them in those concealed spots.
Especially in the ’side hall’.
Dozens of researchers were there.
The man brazenly continued to tie his shoelaces.
And positioned the devices.
Dozens of people.
Failed to notice the bomber, ’Bang...’ The person in charge punched the screen in front of him, his expression was so angry it seed like he was about to bite soone. It was infuriating.
Have they all gone stupid?
Such a big living person ’planting mushrooms’ right under your noses, and you didn’t have the slightest clue.
The security was as good as non-existent.
Personnel seed extrely lax.
If this video gets back...
He won’t be chewed out by the higher-ups for nothing! Looks like he really can’t hold onto his position.
