The Law of Heaven

Chapter 37 Remnants of the Shi Family
There was a roar.

Jiang Youqing clenched her slender fist, and dozens of heavy machine guns, having run out of ammunition, shattered and disintegrated in mid-air, the broken fragments scattering like a rainstorm suspended in mid-air.

As the killing intent flashed in her eyes, millions of sharp metal fragments fell like a storm!
With such a wide-ranging attack, there was nowhere to escape. The experimental subject was surrounded by countless metal fragments, and his scaled body was cut into countless holes, no less than a slow and agonizing death.

Thick, pungent blood gushed from the back of the test subject.

Izawa clung tightly to the thick snake tail that pierced through his chest. Even though the intense pain was almost making him faint, he still refused to let go, his expression as fierce as a Vajra.

At that very moment, Aihara sprinted out, his mental field suddenly unleashed, forcefully controlling the metal fragments embedded in the experimental subject's back, and pushed them away with all his might.

The sound of flesh tearing apart was horrifying.

Aihara clenched his right fist and twisted it backwards.

Metal fragments were deeply embedded in the test subject's chest cavity, shredding his organs like a meat grinder.

The experimental subject screamed in agony.

It sounded like a snake emitting a mournful hiss.

The teamwork was flawless. This hastily assembled combat group seized the opportunity and unleashed terrifying destructive power. Even the evolved Dead Apostles could not withstand it and were instantly critically injured.

However, the injury was not enough to kill him outright!
The experimental subject angrily turned its head and roared, unleashing countless fine wind blades that swept out like a storm.

Aihara raised a shield of mental energy to block, and the oncoming gale shattered in front of him, causing the airflow to scatter wildly.

Under Jiang Youqing's control, the remaining metal fragments were pieced together into a metal shield, which barely managed to withstand the wind blades, with countless sparks flashing and scattering in all directions.

However, both the mental shield and the metal shield were on the verge of breaking after only two seconds, unable to withstand the strain.

The experimental subjects' values ​​were actually higher than theirs!

Even Jiang Youqing's body of steel might not be able to withstand it.

Aihara, on the other hand, was nothing more than a body of flesh and blood.

Once their defenses are breached, they'll both be lying here.

The experimental subject roared in anger.

The experimental subject roared furiously.

This was a desperate last stand before his death, but blood was still flowing from his mouth, clearly indicating that he was at his last gasp.

Izawa wasn't within the range of the wind blades' attack. The test subject probably thought he was doomed and didn't bother with him anymore, which gave him an opportunity.

He suddenly pulled out the snake's tail that was piercing his chest, took out a grenade from his waist, and pulled the pin.

The test subject sensed something; its blood-red snake eyes caught sight of the man's subtle movements, but it was too late.

Izawa lunged forward and lay down, throwing the grenade into his mouth before rolling away to create distance.

The test subject's roar abruptly stopped.

His expression was one of astonishment, like a crying baby suddenly being given a candy and falling silent.

It seems they haven't figured out what happened.

With a bang, the grenade exploded.

The experimental subject was blown to pieces.

Blood fell like rain.

It stained the ground red.

The crisis has finally been resolved.

Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It must be said that this experimental subject was quite powerful. If it weren't for the fact that the three immortal beings present were all quite strong, they would probably have been wiped out in one fell swoop.

Aihara suddenly realized that if the group of robbers they encountered at Asahi Gymnasium had also successfully evolved, they might all have ended up there together that day.

He was exhausted, his spiritual energy was almost depleted, and he was currently only at the Creation stage. If it weren't for his powerful abilities, he wouldn't be able to participate in this kind of battle at all.

He plopped down on the ground, recovering.

Izawa was stunned by the aftershocks of the grenade explosion. He struggled to turn over, and something seemed to fall out of his combat suit.

"Ok?"

Aihara's senses were incredibly sharp; he spotted the thing immediately through the falling rain of blood, and his expression changed slightly.

Jiang Youqing strode over expressionlessly, looked down at her teammate lying on the ground, and pursed her lips: "Even Life Flea can't save someone with this kind of injury."

Izawa, his face covered in blood, gasped for air and said hoarsely, "I wasn't going to escape anyway, but just now in that lab up ahead, I found some blueprints and discovered some clues."

He paused for a moment, wincing in pain: "The room in front is the material room, and this room is the breeding room. This group of people mass-produces the monsters we just saw."

If I'm not mistaken, there should still be over a hundred of those monsters. They should all have been released by now to clear out the intruders. We've entered a place we shouldn't have, and in my condition just now... even if I survived, I wouldn't be able to leave alive.

Damn it.

Aihara was shocked by the number, and a chill ran down his spine.

But then he suddenly realized that he had come in as a clone.

That's okay.

"Why bother?"

Jiang Youqing remained expressionless, showing no emotion even as her teammate was about to die.

"I had no choice. Last year, in order to advance my level, I went to the jade market to gamble on ancient relics and lost a lot of money, accumulating more than ten million yuan in debt. The debt collectors are chasing me very closely... I dare not let my family know, otherwise my serial number will be revoked. Cough cough, I can only take out the immortal ring that my father gave me to pay off the debt, but I have to redeem it eventually."

Izawa's voice grew weaker and weaker as he whispered, "But later, the old master of the Izawa family found out. He privately approached me and showed me the immortal ring he had redeemed for me. He promised that as long as I entered the other side and found the serum that could cure the contamination, he would return it to me."

He can help me pay off my debts, and he can help me find the most suitable ancient artifacts. No one will know about my gambling addiction, and I will remain in the combat ranks.

Aihara eavesdropped nearby and roughly understood what was going on.

Gamblers deserve a terrible end.

Jiang You said coldly, "You're about to die, and you're still stammering. What you've done is definitely more than just gambling; there must be something worse." She paused, "I suspect you violated the Covenant of Humanity, persecuted ordinary people, and plundered their property. There were several attacks by suicidal individuals recently, and something clearly wasn't right."

Aihara was stunned.

Izawa was visibly taken aback, coughed up a mouthful of blood in pain, and said helplessly, "You're really clever. I can't hide anything from you anymore. I originally thought that this place only contained the ruins left by the Germans a hundred years ago, but I didn't expect that the remnants of the Shi family would also be hiding in this godforsaken place."

He closed his eyes: "You knew all along, didn't you?"

Jiang Youqing nodded: "We have studied the technical components of the serum, and the teacher realized that it was probably the work of the Shi family. But this is a classified mission and cannot be made public, otherwise the information will be leaked."

Jingze sighed at the end: "I don't blame you. Now that the remnants of the Shi family have appeared, it means disaster is coming. You have to take the serum and data I got and hand them over to the chairman. These things still can't fall into the hands of the old man of the Jing family... If that old guy gains power because of this, then the company will be... finished."

After saying that, he breathed his last.

Life is cut off.

Jiang Youqing remained silent.

Aihara didn't recognize the person and didn't react much.

Xiao Li, however, came over with a bag and put the captain's body inside. It seems she also has the job of collecting corpses in the team; she's a real jack-of-all-trades.

"A dying man's words are often good."

she whispered.

"Captain Jing is not benevolent, but hateful. The old patriarch of the Jing family is also a member of the board of directors. It is impossible that he did not know about the existence of the Shi family remnants, but he just didn't tell his good grandson."

This is the current state of the company; everyone is scheming against each other for their own benefit, and it's rotten to the core.

Jiang Youqing remained aloof. She raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, squatted down, picked up the backpack left behind by the captain, and carefully examined it.

What are the remnants of the Shi family?

Xiao Li was completely bewildered. It seemed that she was the only naive and clueless person in the group, knowing nothing at all.

"The Shi family, more than a hundred years ago, was the original long-lived family of this city. The Shi family betrayed the secrets of Fog Mountain to the Germans and secretly built a laboratory here. Later, the five major families expelled them and formed a union."

Jiang Youqing's words were concise and to the point, suggesting that such a secret was not new to most of the local longevity species.

They didn't even try to avoid Aihara.

But Aihara was a little confused.

Damn, this is yet another version.

Master Zhou is referring to one version.

Jiang Youqing's version is yet another one.

However, Jiang Youqing is relatively more credible, because she is obviously a super assassin secretly trained by the five major families, and her words are more reliable.

Master Zhou is merely a scholar.

Scholars certainly have a deep understanding of history.

But the problem is that history is just a little girl who can be dressed up as one pleases; how it should be written depends on the person.

Aihara suddenly thought of the German officer he had encountered and said thoughtfully, "Was the Deep Blue Alliance really established after the Germans were expelled?"

Jiang Youqing was rummaging through her backpack when she was suddenly startled by him, like a frightened cat.

"Can you stay away from me?"

She took a half step back and said coldly.

Aihara was displeased: "What?"

Jiang Youqing kept a straight face, but she looked surprisingly naive: "Don't you know you look scary? I... I'm a little scared."

Xiao Li went around behind her and nodded in agreement.

Aihara hesitated for a long time before saying, "This is the effect of a living spirit! I don't look like this, okay?"

Jiang Youqing stared at him: "Which organization sent you?"

To this day, she still cannot understand this mysterious person.

They were unable to ascertain the other party's identity.

They also couldn't figure out the other party's capabilities.

I don't know where this monster came from, it can even lead a horde of zombies on a rampage.

Especially his statement just now: "Was the Deep Blue Alliance really established after the Germans were expelled?"

It seemed to have a deeper meaning.

Jiang Youqing fumbled in her backpack, about to ask him if he knew anything, when she suddenly paused.

"Sister Youqing, what's wrong?"

Xiao Li asked curiously.

"Captain Jing's life slug has disappeared."

Jiang Youqing turned to look at her: "Inside the corpse?"

Xiao Li was taken aback and reached into her backpack to rummage around.

cough cough.

Aihara coughed lightly, gripped the wet, sticky worm in his pocket, and silently prayed.

Please, please don't look at me!
