A Night of Desperation-Chapter 237: Resistance at 235

Three teams arranged for the strength-enhanced individuals to hold transparent ballistic shields, blocking in front of Chen Yaofeng, Yan Yuqiu, and Zhan Yongwen.

As the highest-ranking official present, Chen Yaofeng was very friendly towards Hong, voluntarily standing together with Yu Hong and Yan Yuqiu, and using real-time monitoring to observe the situation inside the factory.

There was no need for the people to enter, standing a hundred meters away from the factory on an open ground, they could completely see the inside of the factory on a large portable tablet screen.

The computer displayed five square small screens, showing the situation inside from five different angles.

Yu Hong glanced and immediately spotted Lin Yiyi, who was cautiously hiding in a corner.

His heart tightened slightly, but he didn’t act immediately, still standing next to the three officials without moving.

“Mr. Yu’s good friend Lin Yiyi is also here, it seems she is safe and sound,” Chen Yaofeng remarked sharply, noticing a slight fluctuation on Yu Hong’s face, and smiled.

He had received intelligence from the internal department of scientific research as soon as he arrived.

The incident of Yu Hong knocking out a level three strength-enhanced individual had already spread.

Putting aside Yu Hong’s more important tag as a scientific researcher, just this individual martial strength alone was worth him taking the risk to come and recruit.

Now, with his father’s health deteriorating, he, as the heir, did not feel optimistic about the future situation. To stabilize the situation in Aurora City No. 2, he had to try everything to combat the Black Disaster and the increasingly dire situation.

And this required gathering more outstanding talents under his command.

“Indeed, it’s also luck to see her safe and sound;it gives me peace of mind,” Yu Hong nodded. “But what about that figure draped in black blood? A new type of Black Disaster humanoid?”

He had also never seen the form of the Black Blood People. Now, confirming Lin Yiyi was safe, his attention rapidly shifted to the Black Blood People.

“We’re not sure, the Red Value detectors did not respond, and even the enhancement detectors invented by Mr. Yu showed no data fluctuations, it doesn’t seem like a Black Disaster,” Chen Yaofeng shook his head. He then turned to look at the old man Yan Yuqiu from the scientific research department.

“Old Yan, what do you think? Does anything in your department’s database match this category?”

“No…” Yan Yuqiu frowned deeply, staring at the Black Blood People being targeted by the hunters.

“It looks quite strong, though…” Chen Yaofeng marveled.

Bang bang bang bang!

By now, the intense anti-material gunfire could barely suppress the actions of the Black Blood People.

He continued growling lowly, waving his arms wildly, trying to block the armor-piercing bullets flying from all directions.

Though unable to block them, his body healed at an astonishing speed each time he was shot through.

Outside the factory, soldiers with a deer insignia had quietly approached, preparing to rendezvous with Xue Ningning, Li Han, and the others.

Roar!

Suddenly, the Black Blood People dove forward, exploding into pieces mid-air.

Not torn by the bullets, but his body actively splitting into five.

This bizarre change threw off the hunters’ tactics.

The five pieces dodged the gunfire, soared over a distance of more than ten meters, caught up with Xue Ningning, Li Han, and the others, and suddenly merged back into the Black Blood People mid-air.

Boom!

He dove down, fiercely knocking down a soldier named Li Han who was blocking the front.

Then he dashed forward, seizing a Radiation Hand Grenade thrown by a deer soldier.

Boom!

The grenade burst out a circle of negative radiation and simultaneously blew out a strange layer of white powder.

“Get down!”

Someone shouted.

Xue Ningning and others reflexively threw themselves down, and along with them, they also pressed down Lin Yiyi and An’an with one hand each.

Bang!

A gunshot sounded outside.

The powder on the Black Blood People was instantly ignited, bursting into an enormous orange-red flame.

Boom!

A huge explosion.

All the windows and doors inside the factory were blasted open by the massive airflow. Xue Ningning and the others were thrown ten meters away by the blast wave, unable to get up for a while.

Lin Yiyi, being protected underneath, was relatively unharmed, stood up, and helped the two move further away.

The deer soldiers approached again from a distance, prepared for the rendezvous.

Roar!!

The Black Blood People, incredibly still alive, rushed out from the flames, pouncing towards the group.

Outside the factory.

Yu Hong’s body tensed slightly, ready to move in.

But Chen Yaofeng patted his arm.

“Don’t worry. The strength of the deer is not just this. Moreover, there are other elite squads watching all the time, nothing big can happen.”

Yu Hong was watching the monitor, about to speak, when he suddenly saw a blurry white figure rush into the monitoring area and deliver a heavy punch directly to the Black Blood People.

Bang!!!

The factory floor trembled slightly. The white figure withdrew its arm, fighting the Black Blood People to a standstill.

He bent and sidestepped, avoiding a claw strike aimed at his head from the Black Blood People, stretched out his hand and scattered a large amount of white powder, which immediately stuck to the Black Blood People.

As soon as the powder touched its surface, thick white smoke rapidly billowed from the Black Blood People’s body, it staggered, its body starting to shrink rapidly.

Before the surveillance, seeing the situation, Yu Hong’s tense body slowly relaxed.

“What is that?” he asked.

“According to the real-time data analysis from the expert group, the main method this humanoid monster uses to repair itself involves fluid movement. Thus, if we find a way to restrict this liquidity, we could successfully terminate its exaggerated regenerative power,” Yan Yuqiu explained in detail. “Afterwards, by utilizing luminous stone weapons and materials powered by sunlight, we can completely destroy it, achieving a fatal blow while doubling the efficiency.”

“Impressive!” Yu Hong exclaimed.

“It’s just that, apart from the Evil Shadow which follows bizarre rules of the Black Disaster, other threats can only cause us minor inconvenience at most,” Chen Yaofeng sighed.

Yu Hong nodded in agreement.

He had heard before that enhanced humans only had so much enhancement data and found it quite dangerous. After all, what was the extent of the Black Disaster outside? This little data might not even qualify them to stand in front of certain Black Disasters.

But now, it seemed that the battle mode of the enhanced humans was not based entirely on physical fitness and Martial Arts but on various technological weapons and comprehensive tactics determined by the expert group.

He glanced at the three officials, none of whom showed any signs of surprise, which meant they had high confidence in the person taking action at this moment.

“Enhanced humans, complemented by various modern weapons, indeed produce significant amplifying effects,” he nodded approvingly.

“That’s right. In modern warfare, strength is mostly used for bearing weight so one can wear thicker, safer protective gear. Speed is for rapid movement, entering and exiting the battlefield to react swiftly and move freely. Vitality ensures completing mission objectives in various harsh environments. The qualities of enhanced humans, when combined with firepower equipment, are greatly enhanced,” Yan Yuqiu nodded. “Essentially, in modern warfare, the limitation of weapon equipment power mainly depends on the person;the emergence of enhanced humans has greatly lifted this limitation.” He pointed to the surveillance screen.

Yu Hong followed his direction.

He was slightly startled.

At that moment inside the factory, apart from the white shadow, another person had entered.

This person was incredibly burly, wearing heavy protective clothing, and carried a massive silver canister on his back, holding a milky white hose in his hand.

Hiss!

In an instant, a thick red and white flame sprayed from the hose.

The flame covered the entire body of the Black Blood People, even enveloping its surroundings, making it impossible to escape the pursuit of the flame no matter how it moved or dodged.

“The ones taking action now are the captain of the Moose Squad, Ou Nanyun, and the vice-captain, Li Kai. Both of them are top-ranked fighters within the city,” Chen Yaofeng said with a smile and a hint of pride.

“Ou Nanyun ranks fourth in strength and second in speed in the city, possessing a rare dual-enhanced physique. Combined, his explosive power is extremely exaggerated.

And Li Kai is the second strongest in terms of strength, second only to the strength king. The equipment and weapons he is wearing now weigh nearly 800 kilograms, which no ordinary person can bear.”

“That is a high-temperature sprayer, a new type of weapon made by integrating the Rune System with some special artifacts left over from the Black Disaster,” Yan Yuqiu explained.

Yu Hong raised an eyebrow.

“Black Disaster artifacts? You’ve also discovered the use of these things?”

“Of course,” Yan Yuqiu nodded. “This high-temperature sprayer can spout a flame pillar 3.6 meters long and 0.3 meters in diameter. The temperature of the flame pillar ranges from 2000 to 2400 degrees Celsius. This temperature can melt most materials that exist in reality, such as stones, steel, and any common items people can see.”

Yu Hong nodded, seeing in the surveillance feed that the Black Blood People had been submerged by the flame pillar, turning more and more into char.

After a little more than ten seconds, the Black Blood People collapsed backward, curled up, and completely stopped moving.

The ground around it was scorched and melted, forming a shallow disk-shaped pit.

“It’s over.”

The two from Moose squad exchanged glances, turned off the sprayer, and the captain Ou Nanyun stepped forward. He pulled out a retractable short stick from the back of his waist, stretched it into a metal grip, and began to check on the Black Blood People.

Even now, they maintained a safe distance from the Black Blood People to prevent any high-speed regenerating species from suddenly attacking.

Just then.

Puff!

The Black Blood People, which had already been burnt to a lump, suddenly split open, and a stream of black blood flew out, hitting the nearby Ou Nanyun!

He quickly backed away, but it was too late;his frontal protective suit was stained and began to emit a hissing corrosion sound.

It was only because Ou Nanyun managed to take off his protective suit in time, or he might have been corroded to death inside it.

Huff!

The fallen protective suit was once again covered by the high temperature of the sprayer and burned intensely.

This close call made everyone at the scene tense up.

“It seems that it has truly ended now,” Chen Yaofeng had leaned forward during the unexpected moment, looking slightly nervous.

“See if there are any remaining artifacts,” Yu Hong nodded and spoke in a low voice.

The encounter with the Black Blood People had inexplicably given him a sense of déjà vu.

In a cylindrical black building located in a corner of Aurora City No. 2.

Inside a dim, spacious office.

Xin Zhilei stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the desk, watching a live feed of the factory projected on the wall.

“You all have been too sloppy in handling this;the situation has become troublesome. It’s all because of your initial actions that weren’t decisive enough,” she observed, as the faces of Chen Yaofeng and others nearby grew increasingly grim.

“Indeed, it’s our fault. The executors didn’t expect these people to cause so much trouble, nor did they expect the reinforcements from the other three sectors to arrive so quickly,” a burly figure wearing a black metal mask slowly emerged from the shadows.

Unlike the previous lazy masked man, this burly figure spoke with a dominating tone, and even in apologizing to Xin Zhilei, he didn’t fall short.

“This situation was caused by you;you are responsible for resolving it,” Xin Zhilei turned back and looked at the person.

“…The personnel from the three sectors have already gathered. The association says that the USB list must absolutely not be leaked, all possibly informed individuals must be eliminated,” the burly masked man spoke calmly.

“You’re saying…” Xin Zhilei’s eyelids twitched. She had thought that some madmen in the association were crazy, but she didn’t expect them to dare to be this crazy!

Understanding the other party’s intention in a flash, she fell silent.

“I disagree, and I do not permit it.”
