As Xue Ba’s words fell, the entire auction hall erupted in a massive cheer, with some taking the opportunity to throw things and spit at others.
The screams and curses of those hit seemed like a drop of water falling into the sea, instantly vanishing.
“So many people are taking advantage of this chaos to cause trouble and get revenge!”
Ye Feng scanned his surroundings, feeling somewhat speechless.
Because he saw many people, taking advantage of everyone’s cheers and revelry, using the cover of darkness to stab others, then throwing the knives to have others catch them…
“Xiao Xiao, let’s go!”
Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao exchanged glances. He casually tossed aside bidding number 250, grabbed Xiao Xiao, and left their seats.
He didn’t want to wait foolishly for the blood race to auction off items one by one, and then see if the last item was an angel. He wanted to investigate himself.
Soon, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao, crouching low, made their way to the edge of the auction hall.
Since there was a large group of blood race guarding the entrance, Ye Feng couldn’t leave easily, and there were no detours when they entered.
So he decided to dig a hole to get out. After all, except for the auction stage in the center of the hall, everywhere else was pitch black.
“We will now begin the auction for the first exhibit, a War General-level fusion. Starting bid…”
“Whoosh~”
“I bid…”
…
“Clang! Clang!”
Amidst the bidding and cheers in the auction hall, there was a rapid cutting sound. In a short while, Ye Feng had dug a wall cavity large enough for him and Xiao Xiao to fit into at a corner.
“Whoosh! ~ Phew!”
Using the darkness and the noise of the crowd as cover, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao quickly entered the wall cavity and then re-sealed the cut-out section.
Ye Feng did not dig through the wall completely, as he did not know if there were any blood race or other beings on the other side.
He concentrated his attention to sense the surroundings, and his Tang knife flashed swiftly, instantly piercing through the wall.
Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao’s figures quickly appeared in a dimly lit corridor. Ye Feng swiftly scanned both ends of the corridor and then reattached the cut-out wall section.
“Yue Miao isn’t around here… or there’s no news of angels yet…”
Ye Feng glanced at a bubble contained within glass on his wrist and muttered to himself.
When Yue Miao left this afternoon, he had given Ye Feng a specially made bubble. According to Yue Miao, he would detonate the bubble to alert Ye Feng once he had news of the angels. Of course, if the distance was too great, Yue Miao couldn’t sense the bubble and therefore couldn’t control its detonation…
“Big Brother, which way do we go?”
Xiao Xiao whispered to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng looked at both ends of the corridor again. “Xiao Xiao, you choose a direction!”
“Hmm… Then let’s go to the right!”
Xiao Xiao thought for a moment and finally pointed to the right.
…
After a while,
“Big Brother, where did all the blood race go? We’ve walked for so long, why haven’t we seen a single one!”
Xiao Xiao’s expression was quite dejected.
According to Ye Feng’s plan, he wanted to capture a blood race member who could move around in the vicinity to ask for information. However, they had been walking for quite some time, and they hadn’t seen a single blood race member.
“This is a bit troublesome…”
Ye Feng scratched his head, feeling equally frustrated.
He had considered capturing the blood race members transporting the auction items before, but that would quickly lead to discovery. So Ye Feng decided to settle for the next best thing, to capture a blood race member with authority to move around the auction hall. But he hadn’t expected…
“Xiao Xiao, let’s go this way!”
Ye Feng pulled Xiao Xiao, who was walking forward, and pointed to a wall beside them.
Since there were no blood race members in the existing passages, Ye Feng decided to carve out his own path.
As he spoke, Ye Feng’s Tang knife began to cut into the wall.
“Clang! Clang! ~”
Ye Feng had only cut a few strokes when suddenly, he accelerated his speed, as he sensed movement on the other side of the wall.
“Clang!”
The moment the wall was breached, Ye Feng’s figure rushed in.
“Bang! Clatter! ~”
As soon as Ye Feng entered the room on the other side of the wall, there was a strange sound of bottles and jars breaking.
“Damn it!”
Ye Feng was speechless, as he had jumped in and landed directly on a platform full of experimental equipment.
“Who is it?”
“Gah! Roar!”
Two blood race men in white lab coats were slightly stunned, then immediately roared, their bodies flashing with red light, and lunged at Ye Feng.
“Bang! Crack~”
“Clang! Bang! Gah!”
After a series of rapid noises, the scene returned to calm. The two men in white lab coats had their joints dislocated by Ye Feng and were bound tightly to a large concrete pillar.
“Who are you two? How dare you trespass into the fusion research laboratory!”
“How did you get in?”
“Lord Blood Guard will flay your skin and rip out your tendons! Be sensible and release us! Otherwise, we’ll tear you to shreds!”
…
Although the two blood race men had their joints dislocated and were bound, there was no hint of fear on their pale faces. Instead, they roared fiercely at Ye Feng.
“Big Brother, these guys seem to be doing human experiments…”
Xiao Xiao frowned tightly as she looked at the human corpses on the operating tables, their bodies disemboweled.
“We’ll find out by asking these two!”
Saying that, Ye Feng’s hand flashed with light, and a long mithril blade instantly appeared.
The next second, he slashed the mithril long blade across the left arm of the blood race man on the left.
“Ah! ~”
“Sizzle~! Sizzle!”
The blood race man on the left screamed out in agony. His left arm was instantly severed, emitting a scorching sound. Flames flickered from the skin and flesh of the wound, finally turning into ash.
“Mith… Mithril… You t…”
What surprised Ye Feng was that even though the commotion he had caused was quite significant, no blood race members came to investigate.
After a round of interrogation, Ye Feng learned that this area was the highly important Zone 1 Experimental Area of the Brad Base.
Each blood race member was only allowed to conduct experiments and move within their own room. Unless permitted by one of the Ten Blood Guards, they were forbidden to go to other rooms.
Violators would be subjected to the most brutal form of immolation!
Therefore, even though many blood race members were curious and worried about what was happening in the adjacent laboratory rooms, none of them dared to investigate, which provided great convenience for Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao’s actions!
…
“What did you say? Impossible, you lied to me, you promised me!”
As Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao were about to leave after exploring this large area in a peculiar manner, a male voice that Ye Feng was quite familiar with rang out. It was Bao Yuting, whom he had parted ways with that afternoon.
“Ah! ~”
As Ye Feng was momentarily confused, Bao Yuting’s shrill scream sounded.
…
