"Brother, speak your mind."
Ren Yuanhao clasped his fists again, taking out three photos from his pocket. The three women in the photos were all beautiful and graceful, possessing a charm that could captivate a kingdom. These three were naturally Shen Lanni, Ye Lan, and Yang Lingxue.
"To escape safely from the esper-users and guards, one can only create chaos. Amidst this chaos, I hope everyone can keep an eye out for these three women. If you encounter them, do not hesitate to rescue them with all your might. I, Ren Yuanhao, will be eternally grateful and repay you even with my death!"
"Brother, you are too kind. Your risking your life alone this time is already a great fortune for us. Since these three are your friends, we will naturally do our utmost."
The crowd took the photos and passed them around, each one being examined. In no time, they had all seen them. Just then, a heart-wrenching wail echoed from the sixth floor. Ren Yuanhao shivered, realizing he had forgotten about Xiao Chong. He immediately rallied them, "Everyone, the counter-attack and escape battle begins! Activate the secret medicine Zoom to its fullest!"
As soon as he spoke, everyone present felt a wave of coolness wash over them. As esper-users, they knew this was the legendary group buff. Their admiration for Ren Yuanhao deepened. They surged out of the room in a mighty tide, heading straight for the sixth floor!
The sixth floor was already swarming with people. The control room had predicted that Ren Yuanhao would ultimately try to rescue the three women. By waiting here, they were confident of achieving their objective, so they had concentrated their forces here.
In the control room, Tao Ge's portly body was constantly secreting cold sweat. His eyes were fixed on the terminal screen, awaiting the boss's final command. However, after waiting for so long, the boss not only had no instructions but also showed no signs of having read their messages.
"Brother Tao, I think the boss might not have guessed that Ren Yuanhao would make a move today. At this moment, I'm afraid that..."
"Shut up!"
Tao Ge's expression suddenly changed. The hand holding his phone trembled continuously, and even his tone shifted.
"Don't try to guess the boss's thoughts. Instead of overthinking, think about how to capture that brat surnamed Ren. I only know one thing: if that Ren fellow successfully escapes, our heads might not be spared."
Tao Ge feigned composure, then pointed to the surveillance footage on the seventh floor. The screen was filled with black and white static, all monitors showing as offline.
"We need to immediately dispatch people to keep a close watch on those damned esper-users. They are the boss's greatest acquisition in the past ten years. If even one escapes, the boss will probably twist your and my heads off and use them as footballs."
"I'll mobilize the personnel right away."
"Forget it, you monitor here, I'll go."
Tao Ge swayed his plump body out of the control room, still clutching his phone, desperately hoping for a decisive message from the boss to reassure the troops.
There was a hidden passage connecting the control room and the seventh floor. After navigating through two or three turns and taking the elevator for barely ten seconds, he emerged cautiously from the stairwell, a powerful revolver clutched in his hand.
The seventh floor was eerily silent, devoid of any noise, while the sounds of battle raged below.
As he walked along the corridor, the sparking surveillance wires sent a chill of foreboding down his spine, followed by the smell of burnt wires.
He quickened his pace, his palms sweating. As he stepped through the metal door, pulled open by Mei Cunxue, his mind buzzed. The sounds of flushing water and chains he usually heard on the monitors had completely vanished. He boldly walked a few more steps, and as he entered the room where the esper-users were confined, his heart leaped into his throat!
"N-no one? Where did they go?"
Without a moment's hesitation, Tao Ge immediately called the control room.
"Brother Tao, what's the situation?" the man on the other end of the line sensed a bad omen from his heavy breathing.
"This is an emergency, all esper-users on the seventh floor have disappeared!"
"W-what?"
"Mobilize all personnel in the control room immediately, investigate all surveillance feeds, and find any trace of the esper-users. Also, initiate Level One combat readiness. Strengthen defenses at the front and back doors, allow no one to enter or exit. Hurry!"
The control room had become like ants on a hot pan. Previously, one person only needed to monitor seven or eight main surveillance screens, but now, that number had doubled. However, no matter how carefully they looked, they still couldn't find any trace of the esper-users, who had vanished like walking corpses. Da Feng Novel Network.
Meanwhile, the esper-users, empowered by Ren Yuanhao's secret medicine Zoom, had engaged the guards head-on. However, the guards only felt gusts of wind passing by, unable to see anything. Even their gunfire proved useless. With this shift in momentum, more and more guards were being taken down.
Ren Yuanhao led the charge. To minimize casualties, he simply disarmed the guards, making them experience the sensation of being incapacitated by the anesthetic.
Finally, after observing for a while, the control room noticed that the guards on the sixth floor had been inexplicably knocked down. They realized that Ren Yuanhao was likely responsible. However, before they could observe further, the surveillance footage was instantly cut off.
"If he continues to disrupt things like this, we'll eventually become blind. Quickly, gather forces, mobilize all esper-users, and intercept Ren Yuanhao on the sixth floor from both sides! Notify the guards watching those three damned women. If necessary, use them as hostages to threaten them! If necessary, make an example of them!"
As the order was issued, a series of cold laughter echoed from a hidden room on the sixth floor.
"Hey, you three, did you hear that? If necessary, they can make an example of someone. So, who wants to be that chicken?"
The man had dyed his hair yellow, his face showing signs of excessive indulgence. He was gaunt, with sunken eyes, bloodshot pupils, and a nose that looked like it had been kicked squarely from the front, like a broken staircase. His features were severely disfigured, beyond any medical help.
He licked a narrow blade with his long, slender tongue, covered in yellowish-green coating, and slowly approached Ye Lan.
"Tsk tsk, Goddess Ye Lan, you're even more beautiful than on screen. Fair skin, tall figure, big where it should be big, perky where it should be perky. I wonder, though, if your cries are as wild when you taste it?"
The three women were tightly bound with restraints, their mouths stuffed with cloth. No matter how much they struggled, they couldn't break free from the specially designed restraints.
The blond-haired man slowly walked towards Ye Lan, a strange excitement in his eyes. As he got close, he pressed himself against Ye Lan's abdomen as if smelling a flower, his expression intoxicated and extremely lewd.
"Goddess Ye Lan, I didn't expect you to be a virgin!"
The blond-haired man suddenly burst into uncontrollable laughter, his eyes gleaming with evil. His dry, sallow hand caressed Ye Lan's abdomen, causing him to tremble with excitement.
"Goddess Ye Lan, I never dreamed I'd have the chance to... Heh heh!"
