636: 625 636: 625 The four carefully entered the first-floor lobby of the academic building and decided not to delve any deeper.
They all breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that the Bloodthirsty Vine did not penetrate further into the building.
The space inside the academic building was only sufficient in the first-floor lobby.
If they needed to hide inside, they would have to move in tight spaces, making it difficult to avoid traps in ti.
“Won’t co in, will you?
Then, I guess I shall co out, no difference after all,” a man dressed in a white tailcoat and a green top hat said as he stepped out from the shadows and, removing his hat, bowed deeply to the four.
Yan Xiu asked sternly, “Who are you?”
Although the man in the white tailcoat showed no overt hostility, Yan Xiu still felt a trendous pressure.
rely standing there, the occasional flash of his aura was far more powerful than Lin Zheyuan.
“Disaster Interdiate Sequence…
no, perhaps Upper Sequence.”
The man in the green top hat smiled, revealing bizarre teeth—each normal tooth was accompanied by an erald green false tooth, making them look decayed at a glance.
“You need not panic.
I am but a harmless botanist, surna Feng, given na Rao.
You may call Dr.
Feng.
I have invited you here rely to assist with a small experint,” he said.
You Han narrowed his eyes and asked, “Dr.
Feng?
More like Dr.
Mad.
What experint do you want to conduct?”
She did not believe this man was harmless at all.
Turning ordinary people into that state could only be the work of a human demon.
Dr.
Feng cleared his throat and said, “You see, I’ve hit a bottleneck in my botanical research.
No matter what, I can only produce this sort of thing; this bottleneck has troubled for many years.”
Clapping his hands, two rows of eight plant-human hybrids erged from the corridor and lined up in front of Yan Xiu and the others.
Dandelions, ivy, roses, Chinese cabbages…
These plant-human hybrids were so beautiful, so ferocious, so comical, but what they all had in common was the miserable state of their human hosts.
“While the power of the plant people ets my needs, they cannot infect other life forms like zombies can.
I have to personally take action to create each one, and the efficiency is just too slow.
Yet those that can infect and proliferate automatically all have fatal flaws.”
“He wants to use plants to infect other life forms!” Li Dazhuang was horrified.
If this thing could infect humans, what kind of massive disaster would that cause?
Dr.
Feng’s face broke into an uncontrollable mad grin: “So I simply ventured into cross-disciplinary research and started studying fungi.
Then I discovered a treasure trove I hadn’t noticed before.
As long as I thoroughly research it, I can fulfill my longstanding wish.”
The four exchanged glances.
They didn’t know what his longstanding wish was, but they were sure it wasn’t anything about strength, democracy, civility, or harmony.
If they didn’t eliminate him, he might brew a massive disaster.
But considering his power, they probably wouldn’t even be able to escape.
Dr.
Feng smiled and said, “Now, I’ve preliminarily completed a piece of research.
I want to know how powerful my new product is, so I need to use you to verify its effects and collect data.
When the ti cos, please resist as much as you can.
If you manage to escape from it, I absolutely won’t pursue you.”
He clapped again, and heavy footsteps sounded imdiately.
A massive purple Mushroom Person squeezed out from the corridor, walked to a plant person, grabbed a cabbage, and stuffed it into its mouth, then reached for another plant person.
With every plant person it consud, its size increased slightly, and the protrusions on its imnse cap gradually evolved into countless eyes, and sothing seed to be writhing in the folds beneath the cap.
After devouring them all, the Mushroom Person looked naively at Yan Xiu and the other three, each eye emitting a hungry emotion, making their scalps tingle involuntarily.
Dr.
Feng suddenly tapped his head and said, “Oh, I almost forgot to ask, have you ever heard of the Catastrophe Containnt Facility?”
All four showed confused expressions.
However, apart from Lin Lu, the other three were pretending; they were extrely shocked inside.
This was the first ti they had heard about the Catastrophe Containnt Facility from soone other than a Containnt Officer.
Dr.
Feng’s face showed disappointnt, “If you haven’t heard, never mind then.
I was entrusted by soone else, hoping I could study that miraculous place.”
The massive Mushroom Person began to sneer and charged toward the group like a tank.
They hurriedly dodged, and the Mushroom Person passed between them, smashing through the main door of the teaching building and running outside.
The Bloodthirsty Vine outside imdiately entwined the Mushroom Person, trying to drain it.
However, the Mushroom Person’s cap released writhing, bullet-sized spores that burrowed into the vines.
The infected Bloodthirsty Vine instantly beca weak and curled up into a ball.
Their body structure was rapidly transforming, seemingly from plant to fungus.
Witnessing this scene, Yan Xiu and the others felt their scalps tingle with horror.
What if they were also hard by that thing, would they beco Mushroom People as well?
Dr.
Feng said with a smile, “You really don’t need to be afraid.
I’d love to have it infect you too, but I haven’t managed to develop a strain that can infect superpower users yet.
Right now, it can only infect the plants I’ve modified.
I call them Hell Hungry Mushrooms because they are always in a state of hunger, which is a flaw that needs to be improved.”
After infecting the Bloodthirsty Vines, the Hell Hungry Mushroom looked at Yan Xiu and the other three again, dripping thick saliva.
“No choice, go!”
Yan Xiu took a deep breath, clasped his hands together, and a beam of white light, like a sword, shot out, charging at the Hell Hungry Mushroom.
Da Zhuang’s Doom Guardian also rushed towards it.
Lin Lu and You Han attacked from the left and right sides of the Hell Hungry Mushroom.
However, with countless eyes on its cap, it essentially had no blind spots and easily blocked everyone’s attacks without being touched by the Doom Guardian.
After the first round of collision, Yan Xiu’s group realized that, although this thing was strong, it wasn’t invincible.
If they could defeat it, they would have a chance to escape to safety!
Yan Xiu pulled out a revolver and started shooting at the Hell Demon.
Each bullet carried a True Word, and he also covered each bullet with his light energy, enhancing their attack power significantly.
You Han’s back sprouted a pair of blue butterfly wings, making her dance in the air like an elf, launching attacks at the Hell Hungry Mushroom from various angles.
As Da Zhuang watched You Han and Yan Xiu, why did he feel as if those wings and the revolver looked sowhat familiar…
