The information Zhang Lang brought about regarding the survivors was seen as a hidden mission by the reincarnators. While it seemed strange to Dr. Bard, it was ultimately less important than the immediate task at hand. The most urgent task was to find the research data and the original virus sample.

In short, after a brief rest, the group, led by Dr. Bard, continued their journey deeper into the underground research institute.

According to Dr. Bard, the research data was on the seventh basement level, accessible by elevator from the lobby. However, after glancing at the surveillance cameras still flashing red, the reincarnators decided to take the stairs instead.

But as soon as they entered the stairwell, they heard a series of mechanical sounds. Looking up, they saw machine guns protruding from the walls of the stairwell, opening fire on them!

"Barrier!" A man with a small mustache waved his hands, and a huge barrier appeared, changing shape at will, as if a large blanket covered everyone, blocking the machine gun bullets.

"There's such an automatic defense system?" Ning Chengyu looked at Bard, but the old doctor shook his head: "No, this is a research institute, not a military base. There are just some armed security guards..."

"It seems the hunter's intelligence was accurate." Catherine pushed up her glasses. "There are indeed people here... or highly intelligent monsters. They've modified the research institute. Dr. Bard's experience may no longer be relevant."

"It's alright!" Fujita Shinichi stepped forward and chuckled, "No matter how much it's modified, it's still just a weapon controlled by electronic devices. It's nothing to be afraid of me!"

As he spoke, the man's eyes widened, lines of code flashed in his pupils, and an invisible wave spread out. Almost instantly, the machine guns stopped firing, their muzzles drooping as if paralyzed.

The Machine Buster is a rare enhancement. Its principle is to implant a special chip in the brain that can paralyze electronic devices within a certain range, and can even be used to my advantage.

With Fujita's abilities, the group no longer needed to worry about the research institute's defense system and proceeded downwards, arriving at the sixth underground level in the blink of an eye.

Unlike the previous floors, the sixth floor has a very high ceiling. The group walked up and down the stairs several times before they saw the sign leading to the seventh floor.

"Why is there no road ahead?" Kang Hai, who was leading the way, suddenly shouted. Everyone looked over and saw that the stairwell leading to the seventh floor had been completely blocked by concrete.

"Are there any other paths?" Ning Chengyu asked Dr. Bard.

"This is the east stairwell. There's another one on the west side, but you have to go through the entire sixth floor..." Dr. Bard hesitated for a moment, then frowned and said, "The sixth floor is the war laboratory, designed to collect combat data from experimental subjects. It has a very high ceiling and the largest area. The walls and floors have been reinforced and are particularly sturdy..."

"You could think of it as a huge, single-level prison..." Catherine pushed up her glasses. "Since they've modified the weapon systems, they must have considered the possibility of an intrusion. Sealing off the staircases is to prevent intruders from reaching the sixth floor, so..."

"There's definitely a surprise waiting for us on the sixth floor!" Ning Chengyu chuckled, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. "Is my score finally going to be credited to my account?"

The reincarnators protected the scientists who were not capable of fighting in the middle, and those with auxiliary abilities released shields and ballistic deflection abilities in advance. Xiao Mo followed Dr. Bard closely, and with Kang Hai and other assault troops leading the way, the group marched into the sixth floor in a grand manner.

Directly opposite the stairwell is a wide corridor, nearly ten meters high and about twenty meters wide. A group of more than forty people walked through it without feeling crowded at all.

Looking around, the corridor is nearly a hundred meters long, with doors on both sides of the walls, and at the end stands a huge and heavy iron door.

"Your institute's design is quite unique..." Kang Hai swallowed and looked back at Dr. Bard.

"This isn't the layout we used to know." Dr. Bard shook his head, looking uneasy. "This floor seems to have been drastically altered, and frankly, I have no idea where these doors lead..."

"The location of the stairs won't change, will it?" Ning Chengyu asked, carrying his knife. "Just tell me where the stairs on the west side are, okay?"

"The west staircase corresponds to the east location..." Dr. Bard pointed ahead: "Judging by the direction, it should be about fifty or sixty meters behind that iron door, following this corridor."

"Then let's move forward!" Ning Chengyu was about to walk forward, but Catherine stopped him.

"Fujita, unleash your full power!"

Fujita's eyes flashed with code: "It's already turned up to the maximum, but there don't seem to be any complicated electronic devices on this floor."

Catherine's glasses also gleamed: "I haven't seen any reaction from the monster, so for now, it seems safe... probably."

The other reincarnators also used their reconnaissance abilities, and only after confirming that there were no ambushes did they begin to move forward.

But just as the last reincarnator stepped into the corridor, with a bang, the door leading to the stairwell behind him suddenly slammed shut, and judging from the continuous mechanical noise behind the door, it must have closed more than one floor!

"Are we trapped in the corridor?" Catherine felt a surge of unease. "Fujita, didn't you say there weren't any traps?"

Fujita also felt wronged: "There are definitely no electronic devices, it's probably just something purely mechanical..."

"Whatever it is!" Arcee picked up her oversized sniper rifle, aimed at the sealed door, and fired a shot!

"boom!"

A deafening gunshot rang out, and a regular bullet hole was shot into the iron gate, but the stairwell behind it could not be seen through the bullet hole.

"Didn't it penetrate?" Arsi frowned. "I used armor-piercing rounds. This door is incredibly sturdy..."

"Looks like they're determined to keep us here!" Kang Hai cracked his knuckles. "But there are no monsters, no traps. Are they going to let us starve to death here?"

"No, there must be something here..." Catherine frowned, her eyes looking at the doors on both sides of the corridor.

Just then, all the doors except the large iron gate at the end opened simultaneously. At the same time, a flood of information flashed on Catherine's glasses, and even a beeping alarm sounded!

"This is... a monster's reaction!" Catherine's eyes widened. "So many! They were all hiding behind the door, there wasn't a single sign until the door opened!"

Upon hearing her warning, all the reincarnators raised their weapons and prepared for battle!

And finally, their opponents emerged from the two rows of doors in front!
