The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 716 Let's do it

One o'clock in the morning, Guanhai Tower, Nanji District.

The elevator door opened, and Chen Ying swiped her card to enter Li's residence.

This entire floor is equipped with a heavily guarded security system, but as Li's personal assistant for more than ten years, Chen Ying has a privileged status and is familiar with the road, as if she is in a deserted place.

One minute later, she came to Li's library.

She found a fake book in the large bookcase on the third side of the study room and pulled it out. The bookcase opened to both sides, revealing a small black gold security door. This was naturally a "high technology" developed by Dr. Jia.

Chen Ying reached out and touched the door. The Wujin Gate immediately resonated with the energy in Chen Ying's body, verified Chen Ying's identity, and opened with a "click".

The secret room was not big, just a square space with pitch black inside.

Chen Ying turned on the flashlight and illuminated the round table in the middle of the secret room, with a suitcase placed on it.

Chen Ying stepped forward and opened the suitcase. There were two rune circuits inside. Chen Ying shined a flashlight on them, and thin lines of energy flowed secretly in the "circuit board" of the runes.

Chen Ying touched two cold and hard black gold discs with her hands. Yes, they were genuine damage rune circuits and life rune circuits.

Chen Ying closed the small suitcase and was startled as soon as she turned around.

"what……"

Chen Ying screamed and instinctively pulled out the black gold pistol. If the flashlight hadn't shone in time, she would have fired.

"...Mrs. Li?" Chen Ying saw clearly that in the corner of the secret room, Mrs. Li was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at her quietly, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

"You...why are you here?" Chen Ying was confused.

"I'm not here, am I sleeping at home, waiting for you to easily steal the runes?" Mrs. Li smiled half-heartedly.

Chen Ying reacted immediately.

Mrs. Li continued: "Chen Ying, I have already suspected you, so I am worried. I want to come over to change the security system and cancel all your permissions."

Chen Ying nodded.

"You noticed it in advance, followed it, snatched the runes in a panic, and rebelled in advance."

Chen Ying nodded again.

Mrs. Li looked at Chen Ying: "Then what are you waiting for? Just shoot. Don't worry, this secret room is soundproof."

Chen Ying didn't speak, her eyes became wet for a moment: "No, no..."

"Just shoot." Mrs. Li was very calm. "If you want to deceive others, you have to deceive yourself first. We all have to play our own roles well."

"..." Chen Ying slowly raised her gun, but her hands were shaking violently.

"Shoot!" Mrs. Li suddenly shouted.

"boom!"

Chen Ying fired, and Mrs. Li's body leaned back. The wheelchair followed and hit the wall with a clang.

Two seconds later, a blood-red mass bloomed on Mrs. Li's right chest, like a bright peony flower.

"Ha ha……"

Mrs. Li's face turned pale, "My marksmanship is okay, not unfamiliar... Come on, fire two more shots... Unless you are a professional killer, when a person is nervous... it is impossible to fire only one shot..."

Chen Ying felt unbelievable that she actually pulled the trigger.

The woman in front of her was her relative, her teacher, and her leader, but she shot her.

"Chen Ying... for your ideal..." Mrs. Li's voice was painful and weak: "How much can you... sacrifice?"

"everything."

A drop of hot tears fell from Chen Ying's face. Her eyes became colder and colder. She took a deep breath and tightened her fingers on the pistol again.

"Me too." Mrs. Li smiled weakly, "Then what are you waiting for...take action..."

"boom!"

"Bang!" Two more bullets hit Mrs. Li's abdomen and shoulder respectively.

Mrs. Li fell from the wheelchair and lay on the ground. A pool of blood soon appeared on the floor.

Mrs. Li's pale face was stuck in her own blood. Her glasses fell off and her eyes were a little blurry and dim. She tried hard to squeeze out a word through her teeth.

"Walk."

Chen Ying took back her pistol, turned around and left with her suitcase, without looking back.

Mrs. Li's life passed quietly. She endured the pain and counted silently in her heart for one minute.

One minute later, she pressed the emergency alarm button hidden in her hand. The next second, her consciousness was interrupted and merged into the boundless darkness.

……

Chen Ying escaped from the secret room and took the elevator to the underground parking lot of Guanhai Building.

After stepping out of the elevator, he quickly walked towards a small truck delivering fresh food. Guanhailou was in the restaurant business, so it was not surprising that small trucks often came to deliver goods.

Zhang Wei had already disguised himself as a delivery driver, while Ye Feng destroyed all the surveillance cameras in the parking lot and hid in the trunk with others.

Xiaotian turns on [Perception] throughout the entire process to ensure that there are no enemies or suspicious targets nearby.

Chen Ying took the suitcase and got on the passenger side of the minivan. She quickly took off her clothes, put her hair up, put on a hat, put on her work uniform, and transformed into a delivery person.

When the minivan drove out of the parking lot, Li, who was in the secret room, belatedly pressed the alarm button.

……

At three o'clock in the morning, the nine people in Chen Ying's group, plus Sha Ye and Wang Weizhen, totaled 11 people.

They drove to a nearby neighborhood of No. 11 Middle School, which had been closed for many years. Instead, they walked, avoiding the cameras, and sneaked into the old auditorium of No. 11 No. [-] Middle School.

Along the way, Xiaotian turned on [Sense] to ensure that no one was following him.

The 11 people entered the auditorium and did not dare to turn on the lights. They hid in a small room behind the stage of the auditorium. Yefeng blocked the windows tightly to ensure that no light would come out. He turned on the flashlight and placed it on a small dusty bench.

Everyone sat on the floor around the bench, each in silence.

"When will Jiu Si come?" Buzhou asked.

"Three o'clock." Chen Ying glanced at her watch, "It's been 10 minutes now."

"Is there going to be an accident?" Sha Ye was worried. She kept holding her daughter's hand and wouldn't let go for a moment.

"Sister Sha, think on the bright side." Kou Wo smiled happily: "Maybe this is Jiu Si's trap. They only want the runes but not the people..."

"Shut up." Li Zi glared at him.

"Be patient." Fusheng said calmly and calmly, "Wait a little longer."

Chen Ying glanced at Xiaotian: "Continue to [perceive], don't let down your guard."

Xiaotian nodded and closed his eyes again.

"Kouwo, look out for us."

"OK." Kouwo smiled easily. He took two steps back and his whole body quickly blended into the wall behind him and disappeared.

Kowo's [Shuttle] allows him to shuttle and hide within ordinary obstacles such as walls and floors. He is very suitable for watching out.

Just in case, Sha Ye puts a temporary mark of [Purification] on everyone, which can effectively prevent the curse for half an hour.

Time passed by minute by second, which was extremely difficult.

Everyone said nothing, each thinking about the defection with his own thoughts.

Waiting until four o'clock in the morning, Xiaotian opened his clear eyes. The continuous high-intensity [perception] made him very tired. His voice was weak:

"One...two people are approaching."
