Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Would You Like to Come to My Base?

“Daddy…”

Yinyin plunged into the Lion’s embrace and sobbed uncontrollably, as if to cry out all the grievances she had suffered during this time.

The Lion couldn’t stop his tears either.

He looked up, wanting to share his joy with his wife Su Hui, but in the half-transfigured iron cage, he saw a flash of cold light pass through Su Hui’s hands.

His face stiffened, “Xiao Hui!”

Su Hui smiled faintly, “Live well…”

As her voice fell, she raised her hand and stabbed the hidden scalpel into her neck.

Warm blood sprayed all over the other zombies in the cage, instantly triggering their concealed bloodthirsty nature.

As he watched his wife torn and mangled beyond recognition, the Lion felt as if he had shattered into pieces.

Yinyin, witnessing the scene, collapsed softly into her father’s arms.

Ji Wanwan let out a sad and helpless sigh.

Coming back to her senses from the huge shock, Ji Wanwan’s body tensed up, realizing something was wrong.

Since the three of them had entered the laboratory, nearly 3 minutes had passed, and Baize still hadn’t shown up!

“Not good!”

Ji Wanwan suddenly turned around, looking towards the laboratory door.

At this moment, Wen Yuheng and the Lion also realized the danger. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

“Click—”

The sound of a mechanism came from the laboratory door.

The door opened, and in the corridor outside the laboratory, stood about a dozen people, led by Baize and assisted by Hu Peng.

Ji Wanwan’s brows furrowed, she grabbed Wen Yuheng with one hand and the Lion with the other, ready to flee at any moment.

The Lion hugged Yinyin close, his whole body tensed, staring dead at the people outside, ready to sacrifice himself for Yinyin at any moment.

Before Ji Wanwan could flee, Baize spoke, “The distance for a Level 6 Space Manipulation is 600 meters, which means, your maximum teleportation range is 600 meters.

Unfortunately, 600 meters away is still within my power, and my men are already waiting for you. I can’t guarantee that you and your companions won’t get hurt as soon as you appear.”

!!!

Ji Wanwan was shocked.

After a brief silence, she let go, giving up the struggle, “How did you know?”

Baize didn’t answer the question directly, “I won’t kill you, but if you want your companions to survive, you’d better behave.”

Ji Wanwan was stunned.

What’s the meaning of this?

Someone who had already died once, who are you trying to scare?!

Ji Wanwan felt a bit rebellious, “Are you threatening me?”

Baize didn’t deny it, “You could say that.”

The one being threatened couldn’t help but laugh, “Heh… what makes you think I care about the lives and deaths of others?”

Baize stepped into the laboratory, “If you didn’t care, why would you still be trapped here?”

That seemed somehow reasonable.

But logically speaking, she really hated the feeling of being threatened.

Although this Baize seemed quite odd, that didn’t mean she had no chance of winning!

Ji Wanwan smiled ambiguously, “You say I care about them, I agree with that, but if you want me to behave, it won’t be so easy.”

No sooner had her words fallen than Ji Wanwan executed a Space Cutting, directly severing the cages holding the zombies, and at the same time, created a Space Barrier to protect herself, Wen Yuheng, and the Lion.

These zombies were imperfect products of failed experiments; they possessed greater destructive power than ordinary zombies and were more brutal, but they were severely lacking in following orders, which was why they were imprisoned.

Now that the zombies were released from their cages, their keen sense of smell excited them, and they rushed towards the dozens of people at the door.

Baize remained calm, although his men could not help but panic.

Someone screamed in fright, immediately causing an uproar.

“Bang bang bang bang!”

Gunshots rang out continuously as Ji Wanwan quickly used her Space superpower to move several shadowless operation lamps in front of her, blocking both the line of sight and the bullets.

Baize instantly teleported, breaking directly into Ji Wanwan’s space cage.

At that moment, Ji Wanwan was sneaking up to the large iron cage holding ordinary humans.

Realizing that Baize had entered, she touched the tip of her finger to the cage, rapidly retracting it into the System Space, then grabbed Wen Yuheng and Lion and teleported away from the laboratory.

“Whoosh—”

No sooner had they landed than Ji Wanwan felt a void beneath her feet, her body falling downwards.

Such a huge pit!!

Only just stabilizing herself, Ji Wanwan then felt a shadow falling over her head.

When she saw several people throwing Hand Grenades into the pit, Ji Wanwan’s face immediately darkened.

To initiate another teleportation or Instant Teleportation, it would take at least 2-3 seconds, and clearly, they wouldn’t have that time before they would be blown to smithereens.

Ji Wanwan had a flash of inspiration and quickly used the Wood Element Superpower borrowed from Wen Yuheng to let countless Vines burst through the soil, protecting them within a giant ball wrapped in vines.

“Boom boom boom!!!”

The enormous explosion thundered through the sky.

After 10 seconds, the borrowed Wood Element Superpower ended, and Ji Wanwan seamlessly transitioned to teleportation, pulling the full 600 meters of maximum distance.

Upon landing again, both Wen Yuheng and Lion trembled all over, their faces a mixture of ecstasy and near-death experience.

Ji Wanwan: “?? What’s wrong with you two?”

Recovering, a blush crept over Wen Yuheng’s handsome face: “Cough, the superpower has recovered, it’s quite exhilarating.”

Ji Wanwan: “…”

After a speechless moment, Ji Wanwan’s eyes lit up.

So, had they left Baize’s control range?!

Realizing this, Ji Wanwan was thrilled; now with two more helping hands, they no longer needed to retreat in such a woeful manner.

If possible, for her next superpower, she wanted to awaken one like Xiang Rui’s, with strong explosive power and aggressiveness.

Without time to ponder, Ji Wanwan worried Baize would catch up immediately: “Let’s go, let’s go, we can talk once we’re back at the base!”

Wen Yuheng nodded: “Okay!”

Lion: “A base? You have one too?”

The three of them ran while chatting sporadically.

Ji Wanwan: “Yeah, want to come to my base? It’s even better than Baize’s!”

Lion: “…”

Why does this sound like hustling for guests?

But Yinyin indeed needed to stay in a safe place, it wasn’t good always following him around.

Lion: “Let’s go, we’ll talk about the rest later.”

The three alternated between running and teleporting, soon spotting the first line of defense leading into the underground gambling den, the makeshift iron fence.

The entrance to the iron fence was already closed, and several modified minibuses were parked nearby.

Ji Wanwan ran over quickly, tapping her fingertips, taking all the minibuses into the System Space.

Life is short, leave no regrets! Take everything that can be taken!

No sooner had Ji Wanwan finished taking the minibuses than she was about to continue teleporting with the two others when she saw Lion punch a hole in the iron fence.

Ji Wanwan: “…” Impressive!

After running out of the iron fence, Ji Wanwan let out a minibus, and the three immediately hopped in the car. Wen Yuheng took the wheel, speeding towards the refuge base.

Shortly after getting on the car, Ji Wanwan released all the ordinary people who had been imprisoned from the System Space one by one.
