From the end of the world

Chapter 196 Out of the Cage 2
It wasn't just the witchers' seals that were broken.

The cells throughout the secret base are covered with anti-detection barriers. Although this barrier that hinders perception will not sever the connection between me and the "Firefly", it will still be an obstacle when I need to remotely control the "Firefly" to transform into a key.

So while freeing all the demon hunters, I also unceremoniously smashed these troublesome things with my "eyes".

More than half of the anti-detection barriers inside the secret base were shattered at this moment, and the sound like an air raid alarm was blaring wildly in all directions. Through the "fireflies" set up everywhere, I saw the guards patrolling the corridors terrified, and I also saw the researchers who were torturing in the cells panicking - the latter was probably more because they saw the experimental subjects tied to the cross suddenly become free.

The demon hunters were like wild beasts out of their cages, baring their cruel fangs.

They may not remember the countless restarts in the past, but they certainly remember the death and pain engraved in their souls, as well as the hatred and rage that arose from it. These superhumans with powerful magic killed their tormentors as soon as they were freed, then smashed open the half-open iron door and came to the corridor, setting off a bloody storm.

There are more than sixty demon hunters trapped in this secret base, more than two-thirds of them are bad level, and the rest are just living level, not complete level; and the total number of guards, excluding those killed by me not long ago, is fifteen.

The guards are overwhelmingly outnumbered, but they are all at the highest level, well-rested, and have no weaknesses. If we really go to war with the demon hunters, we may not necessarily win, but we will definitely deal a heavy blow to them. I am also counting on the demon hunters who have escaped to find out Chen Long's background for me, so I can't let the guards do whatever they want.

I haven't yet recovered the hundreds of "Fireflies" that I was responsible for unlocking for the demon hunters. Now the guards are rushing to the front line as soon as possible. Before they fight with the demon hunters, I remotely control the "Fireflies" to take action.

Even if I don't have much strength now, it's more than enough to deal with these guards. The "firefly" turned into flaming sword energy and shot directly at the guards.

Some of the guards who had transformed into monsters were hit directly and turned into dry charcoal on the spot; some barely avoided it, but were still hit by the high-speed returning flaming sword energy, and turned into dry charcoal on the spot... Such scenes were played out in various places in the secret base, and in just a breath and a half, almost all the guards were dead.

The demon hunters who went berserk didn't even look at the guards, and started killing the other researchers who didn't have time to escape.

This was not only out of strong hatred, but also out of the plan that the girl Lu Chan had agreed with them at the beginning. As long as they acted like this in the base, there would definitely be people who would not stand it and would do their best to suppress the riot in the shortest possible time.

That person is Chen Long.

A terrifying wave of mana swept across the entire secret base in an instant, as if the gravity of this independent reality had increased countless times. The girl Lu Chan beside me couldn't help but reach out to hold the wall, almost falling to the ground, her face turned pale, her breathing was difficult, and obvious cold sweat oozed from her forehead.

Those demon hunters who were regarded as hunting targets became slow in their movements, and their expressions seemed as if they had just woken up from their hatred and rage. They looked in the direction where the magic power fluctuations came from.

By the time the nearest demon hunters turned around, it was too late. The source of the mana fluctuations passed by them first, and their bodies seemed to have just realized their own death and were half a beat slow to explode and scatter.

Some demon hunters began to flee far away in order to kill a few more researchers before they died; while more demon hunters showed even more hateful expressions, intentionally rushing towards opponents whom they were destined to be no match for.

"Traitor——" "Chen Long!"

Colorful spells bombarded the galloping Chenlong.

At the same time, the girl Lu Chan also stretched out her hand, pressed it on my shoulder, and cast a spell to connect with my spirit.

Now, she can see the perspective of the "firefly" by synchronizing her mind with mine, observe Chen Long's movements from all angles, and analyze the secret of Chen Long exerting his full strength inside the stronghold; and I can also share her perspective and even see the normal stronghold scene.

When I heard about her plan, I was curious about what the scene of the normal base would look like, and wanted to connect to her perspective in advance. However, she reminded me that doing so might destroy my "filter" for the secret base.

My distorted "filter" originally came from Lu Youxun outside, and since the young girl Lu Chan and Lu Youxun are essentially the same person, her normal cognition is likely to cover the distorted cognition brought by Lu Youxun. Because the "filter" was still useful until just now, I didn't do that for the time being.

And now it has been proven that her prediction was correct.

At this moment, the stronghold in my eyes underwent a drastic change.

The wire mesh floor that revealed a fiery red glow, the dirty white-painted walls covered with blood, the half-broken light tubes that flickered on and off...all of these things slipped away from the field of vision like mud washed off the window glass, and were replaced by spacious corridors that were as civilized and hygienic as a hospital. The cells and torture props were turned into laboratories and experimental equipment, and the entrance was changed from a rusty iron door to a metal door equipped with a safety verification procedure.

I can’t seem to find that “filter” that seems scary but is actually convenient for the time being.

The bloody and cruel Purgatory Slaughterhouse has been transformed into a serious research facility, but the laboratories and corridors of this research facility are filled with unrecognizable corpses. At first glance, it looks like a research institute where a biochemical crisis accident has occurred.

The "super-powered zombies" that escaped from containment launched suicide attacks on Chen Long one after another.

This kind of attack was no problem for Chen Long. He galloped and killed people in the corridor at a speed faster than sound. Demon hunters with weak body defense could not even withstand the shock waves generated by his movement, and relatively strong demon hunters at the living level were shattered by his touch. The number of demon hunters was decreasing rapidly.

At the same time, he also noticed "fireflies" everywhere.

"——Zhuang Cheng, are you playing tricks on me?"

He let out a roar.
