783: Chapter 783: A Step Too Late 783: Chapter 783: A Step Too Late After two days of turmoil, filled with anxiety, Gu Fan and Su Hui arrived at a farm in a very remote place overseas.
On the surface, everything seed calm, they could even see farm animals moving around, but there wasn’t a single person in sight.
This farm was rely a facade to conceal the research base underneath.
Gu Fan rembered that the last ti he was here, there were two farrs, who were naturally there rely for pretence, to alert them of any outside situations.
Gu Fan shouted repeatedly but received no response.
He already had a bad premonition, but he still tried to stay calm and shouted again.
In the end, having no other alternative, Gu Fan and Su Hui had to venture inside, while being careful of their surroundings.
Following the mories from last ti, Gu Fan and Su Hui arrived at a warehouse.
Surprisingly, the hidden door that led to the underground research base was wide open, implying the situation might be unfavorable.
Gu Fan and Su Hui exchanged a glance, and then cautiously approached the door.
They could see that the light was still on, but the stairs leading down were empty.
After going down the stairs, Gu Fan and Su Hui took an elevator.
They were about to truly enter the underground research base and face whatever might have transpired there.
Despite their preparation, when the elevator doors opened, both were taken aback.
Just at the entrance, nurous bodies were strewn all over, blood everywhere.
It appeared there had been a savage battle.
The further inside they went, the more bodies they saw in pools of blood.
There were many bullet holes in the walls and items were thrown about chaotically.
The scene was very disorderly.
Unsure if there was any danger left, Gu Fan and Su Hui were on high alert, prepared for battle, fearing sothing might suddenly jump out at them.
However, they traveled quite so distance without encountering any danger, yet they remained on guard.
Upon reaching a laboratory, Gu Fan and Su Hui entered to find, as expected, that it had also been attacked.
Five people dressed like research personnel were lifeless on the ground.
What made Gu Fan despair was that the device that would have allowed ti travel was completely destroyed.
It seed to have been demolished by a forceful power, but there were no signs of an explosion around.
Based on this, Gu Fan inferred that Qian Ye was the one responsible.
She had co here, killed everyone, and then destroyed the ti-travel device, enabling her to stay in this era for good.
With a sigh, Gu Fan felt the burden of guilt, blaming his negligence for the unwarranted calamity that befell the people here.
If only he could have kept an eye on Qian Ye and watched out for her actions, she wouldn’t have found this place and massacred everyone.
However, upon further examination, Su Hui found sothing amiss.
There was another group of people among those lying in pools of blood apart from the research and security staff of the facility.
The clothing and weapons of this group differed from the security staff.
Most here had died from gunshots.
Could Qian Ye use firearms now?
But even if the bullets had all been deflected back by Qian Ye’s magic, not everyone here would have been hit.
Gu Fan thought Su Hui’s analysis made sense, and he began examining the bodies.
His assessnt showed that almost all of the research personnel and security staff had been shot, while most of the other ard n had died from having their necks twisted, with no breath left in them.
“Gu Fan, co and take a look at this person!” Su Hui seed to have made a discovery and imdiately called Gu Fan over.
When Gu Fan arrived and took a detailed look, it was Su Lei, but he was here?
How could this be?
By Su Lei’s outfit, it looked like he was part of the other ard group.
Gu Fan and Su Hui speculated whether Su Lei had led the ard n to break into this underground research base, exchanged fire with the security here, and then massacred everyone.
Guessing was of no use, so Su Hui and Gu Fan went to the monitoring room to check the recordings.
It turned out exactly as they had deduced; an ard group had suddenly stord in.
Going by the trend, the security here was simply no match, they were swiftly shot down; a great number of the research staff had also been hit by bullets.
It seed Su Lei didn’t want to perform a massacre, leaving several survivors with the intention of taking them away, even intending to move the research findings from the facility.
But just as they were about to retreat, Qian Ye ca out of the elevator.
What ensued was a fight between Su Lei’s group and Qian Ye.
Naturally, with Qian Ye’s supernatural power, she held an absolute advantage and took out all of Su Lei’s n, leaving none behind.
A few of the remaining research personnel who had recognized Lin Xi mistook Qian Ye for her, they seed to have listened to Qian Ye’s words and brought her to the ti-traveling machine.
Qian Ye made a move to destroy the ti-travel device, and then killed all the remaining research personnel.
Without the machine and the research personnel, the world would never see a ti portal again.
Upon watching this part of the surveillance, Gu Fan sighed.
Although the slaughter here was not entirely caused by Qian Ye, she had also tainted her hands with blood.
Gu Fan still felt guilty, feeling that he had let these people down.
“Alright, we know what happened here now, we shouldn’t stay.” Su Hui reminded, and Gu Fan agreed.
They promptly left the underground research base.
But just as Su Hui and Gu Fan erged and were leaving the place, ready to open the car door, they suddenly heard the sound of many engines.
Turning around to look, Su Hui and Gu Fan saw five vehicles speeding down the road towards them, their aggressive deanour suggesting they were headed their way.
It was too late to run, the exit of the farm was blocked.
Su Hui and Gu Fan could only get ready to defend themselves.
The five vehicles drove into the farm, and a group of ard n imdiately jumped out, pointing their guns at Gu Fan and Su Hui.
Judging by their attire, they appeared to be from the sa group that had invaded the underground research base.
Outnumbered and surrounded, with no place to run, Gu Fan and Su Hui could only reluctantly raise their hands in surrender.
The leaders of the group finally stepped out of their vehicles.
They wore sunglasses and had an imposing deanor.
However, when they saw Gu Fan and Su Hui, they paused for a mont, before taking off their glasses, exclaiming, “What are you guys doing here?”
“Yeah, I want to ask you the sa question, and I didn’t want to see you guys either.” Gu Fan and Su Hui secretly cursed their bad luck.
The two newcors were familiar faces, Qiao Ya and Dong Ni.
As the saying goes, enemies often cross each other’s paths.
Winding up in their hands, Gu Fan and Su Hui couldn’t help but wonder if they would show leniency in light of past acquaintances.
