Very impressive

Li Ang had seen all sorts of grand spectacles, so he chuckled and attached a flashlight to the drone, maneuvering it to fly in through the main entrance.

The first-floor lobby, resembling a cement sarcophagus, was extremely spacious. The artificial sunlight bulbs, originally installed for a trendy, modern look, were all extinguished after the power outage.

A beam of light tore through the almost eternal darkness.

Using the 4k camera's two-times optical zoom, Li Ang clearly saw the lobby's appearance.

It was a world of flesh and blood.

The ground, walls, ceiling – everywhere was covered in writhing flesh.

These chunks of flesh were generally bright red, covered with a thin layer of white fascia. The fascia contained a network of fine tubes.

Whenever the flesh trembled, the tubes within the fascia would pulsate, like pumps, delivering dark yellow pus to every corner of the flesh.

Tumors as tall as a person, like fruit on branches, densely covered the flesh carpet, greedily absorbing the pus delivered by the fascia.

The tumors would contract and expand every few seconds, constantly cycling, like hearts that never stopped beating.

Bizarre, grotesque monsters, even stranger and more terrifying than the Mothman Li Ang had encountered, were sleeping comfortably and peacefully on the flesh carpet.

An elephant whose tongue had been replaced by a large slug;

A winged tiger that looked like it had been skinned alive;

A chimera of cockroach and mantis;

A three-legged goat with hundreds of human arms growing from its back;

All the monsters seemed to have sprung from the most insane and chaotic nightmare of the Creator. They were covered in tubes that grew from the carpet, like patients hooked up to IV drips.

The tubes writhed, slowly and steadily injecting pus into the monsters, and discharging a clearer liquid through another set of tubes on the other side.

Outside the building, Wanli Fengdao, who was standing next to Li Ang watching the display panel of the controller, felt a tickle in his throat.

The chaotic scene inside was filled with malice toward human reason.

Even without hearing the sounds inside or smelling the odors,

Simply looking at the images was enough to cause physiological discomfort.

The drone's light beam did not attract the attention of these monsters at all. From time to time, the monsters in their sleep would subconsciously move their heads, swallowing the tumorous fruit that was close to their mouths.

With a "pop" sound, accompanied by splashing juice, they chewed the leather-balloon-like tumor and swallowed it.

"What the hell..." Wanli Fengdao resisted the urge to vomit and said disgustedly, "What are all these things?"

"Aberrations."

The Stonemason said seriously, "These things are aberrations. We tried to sneak in through the front door before, but as soon as we stepped on the flesh carpet, we were discovered by the monsters.

That carpet seems to have a detection and sensory function. Any change in weight will trigger the carpet's stress response,

Awakening the aberrations on the flesh carpet and launching an attack on intruders."

The Stonemason's team could easily deal with one aberration. They could barely handle two or three.

But in this hall, a rough count showed at least thirty or forty, not counting the small aberrations hidden in the shadows of the tumors.

"In short, we'll climb from the windows on the outside of the wall to the third floor later, and use the ropes we set up earlier to descend to the first floor without touching the ground, approaching the elevator lobby on the first floor step by step."

The Stonemason looked at Li Ang and the others standing not far away and said solemnly, "We just touched the flesh carpet a little bit earlier and were chased half a street by a giant leopard.

Pay attention later, and be sure not to trigger the carpet's automatic counterattack function."

The players nodded. Li Ang remained calm and composed, ordering the drone to hover in place.

He then followed the Stonemason and the others to the base of the building's wall, climbed up to the third floor using the vines, climbed through the window, and crouched on the window frame.

With a few windows, the third floor of the building was not

extremely dark.

With the faint sunlight, they could see the steel ropes that the Stonemason and the others had left in the room before.

The ropes were suspended in the air, one end tied to an iron nail on the outside of the wall, and the other end firmly fixed to the wall on the other side of the room with a launcher.

The Stonemason took the lead, grabbing the rope like an ape and climbing up.

Without touching the ground, he slowly moved along the rope towards the other side of the wall.

The remaining players began to imitate him, acting as Tarzan for a while.

After the Stonemason climbed to the other side of the wall, he took out a launcher from his backpack and nailed the nail tied with the rope to the doorway.

*Poof*

The steel nail pierced the area around the flesh without attracting the attention of the carpet. The group, like masked thieves infiltrating a vault,

Quietly descended to the left rear of the first-floor lobby without triggering the carpet traps at all.

The flesh carpet in this area was thinner, and there were fewer fruit-like tumors.

Correspondingly, seven medium-sized aberrations roamed here. Although their size was not as exaggerated as a jaguar, they were all as big as a bus or a small car.

Perhaps because the flesh carpet was too thin, these aberrations were still very awake, shaking their heads and pacing slowly in place.

Whenever a new tumor fruit appeared, the aberrations would swarm forward, snatching the fruit and swallowing it.

To this end, they did not hesitate to attack each other, scratching each other until their heads were covered in blood.

The elevator lobby was the only passage to the main area of the underground laboratory.

But to enter the elevator lobby, one had to pass in front of these seven aberrations.

In fact, the six players were not afraid to face these aberrations head-on, and were even quite confident that they could end the battle in a very short time.

The only problem was that once the battle started, they would inevitably come into contact with the flesh carpet, arousing the carpet's vigilance,

Attracting the many aberrations in the hall.

At that time, whether to escape or attack, the difficulty would be much greater, and a slight carelessness would result in casualties.

The Stonemason, crouching on the steel rope, took a deep breath and took out a jaguar carcass as big as a car from his backpack, throwing it onto the carpeted ground.

The moment the two came into contact, the carpet immediately reacted. Dozens of tubes danced like octopus tentacles,

Digging into the jaguar's incomplete body, sucking on the fresh flesh like straws.

The Stonemason gave a look to several companions. He jumped down from the rope, landing right on the jaguar's incomplete body.

An aberration resembling a three-headed ostrich seemed to hear a sound, turned its head, and saw the Stonemason. Just as it was about to scream to warn others, a rapier pierced the neck of its left head.

Hei Shengzi and Zhuang Pengpai each dropped corpses to complete their landing, while Li Ang and the others also jumped down from the ropes, assisting the others in killing the aberrations that had noticed them.

Eliminating everyone who discovers you is the true meaning of "infiltration."
