As the steel doors closed behind them, only one person remained alive on the platform at the entrance of the Workspace. There were also scattered corpses. Judging from their clothes, most of these corpses were the ordinary residents of the base. Their deaths had been extremely tragic and had happened a thousand times in a flash. The body was lying on its stomach on the work platform, on the floor, strangled by cables, or pinned to the wall by sharp objects.

The power supply in the base had been destroyed, the lighting had failed, and only the emergency red warning lights flickered. Under the red light, the blood from the corpses turned into a pool of blood. As he walked across the platform, the military boot was stained with blood, as if it was walking through hell.

After turning onto the path leading to living area, his pupils suddenly shrank.

At the entrance to the corridor lay several bodies, dressed as soldiers. One of them was Zouger!

The man who had said to Zero that "daggers should be aimed at the enemy instead of companions", the man who had refused to leave him even when the change occurred to his body. But now, he was quietly hiding in the corner.

One of Zouger's arm was missing, his entire lower jaw had been removed. With a hole in his stomach, his rectum was dragged in and placed in Zouger's mouth.

An English word was written in red blood beside the corpse.

"FRUK."

Then, he squatted down and wiped the English language away with his hands. Then, he took the rectum from Zouger's mouth and stuffed it into his stomach. In the end, Su Yun helped to catch Zouger's chin and put the machine gun on Zouger's body. Zouger looked much more peaceful, as if he had fallen asleep. But he would never wake up.

There were countless of warheads scattered beside Zouger's body, and Zero turned to look at the passage. The golden right eye kept adjusting its vision, clearly seeing the situation in the passage.

The alloy walls of the passage were riddled with bullet marks, but they were not evenly distributed. The distance between them and the disparity between them was enormous. The shortest distance was about one meter, while the longest was as far as five meters. The width of the tunnel was three meters. In such a narrow space, a leaps could be made. This meant that the enemy's movement speed was extremely fast.

Zero closed his eyes and simulated the scene in his mind.

The enemy's speed was bound to be extremely fast, which was why Zouger and the rest were trying to lure the other party into this narrow tunnel, in an attempt to restrict the enemy's speed through the environment. Unfortunately, this strategy seemed to have failed. The opponent's speed was way faster than Zouger and the others could imagine. Zouger and the rest could not even catch the opponent's shadow with their firepower, which was why they formed this kind of jump attack.

Zero estimated that if he were to be ambushed in such a narrow space. Although he could dodge the attack, that was only limited to linear movement. For example, this kind of curvature evasion, the enhancement of agility should be able to reach the third step left and right side. Otherwise, their speed would have caught up, but their reflexes were far inferior.

The power that could tear apart the human body with its bare hands was at least at the third stage of strength enhancement. In other words, the invading base had at least the third stage of strength and the enhancement of agility.

This reminded Zero of the figure he saw half a month ago in the valley, who tore apart the Corpse wolf with his bare hands.

It, or he!

Zero turned the corner and entered the living area. The living area was also littered with corpses, as though the entire population of the Whole Base had been massacred. Zero went to the infirmary and opened the window with his gun. The infirmary was surprisingly tidy, and Zero could not find the body, which made him feel slightly relieved.

He changed his direction and headed towards Old Jack's residence. On the side of a staircase, Allen's body was lying on the ground. The young sniper's head was twisted 180 degrees. On Allen's forehead, there were wounds that were like bullet holes.

The bloody hole seemed to have been shot through Allen's head, but in reality, it was not.

A human's skull was the toughest bone in the body, or a conventional machine gun. Unless it was fired at close range, it wouldn't be able to cause such penetrating damage. However, if it was a machine gun, the blunt energy produced by the bullet would tear off Allen's entire skull. For an injury like Allen, it was more like he was inserting his finger directly into it.

A guy with the strength enhancement of the third step was indeed capable of such a feat. But was the finger so long?

Maybe it was because the organs in the body could multiply in an instant?

After checking on Allen's sniper rifle, he found that there were sufficient ammunition in the gun box. This meant that Allen had killed him before he had even shot.

Looking at the wide-open eyes of the corpse, he thought that this young man must have died a very bitter death.

He stood up and continued onward.

After a moment, Zero arrived at Old Jack's residence. The door of the house was split in half, with a depression in the middle. It was obvious that the huge force had destroyed it from the outside. The house was quiet, furniture littered the floor. He took out the M500 revolver with both hands and started moving in the direction of the study.

Half the room in the study was dark, the other half exposed to the red light. Old Jack was still sitting on his leather chair, both his feet on the desk, looking exactly the same as usual. However, his chest was like a huge door that had sunk in. This level of injury was not something that an ordinary old man like him could bear. Su Yun silently estimated. He knew that Old Jack's breastbone had already been broken, and at the same time, the broken bones had pierced all sorts of organs in his body.

Zero put away the gun and walked over to the old man. He saw the pipe under the table, and the cigarette scattered on the floor. These two things were Old Jack's favorites, so he bent down to pick them up for him.

In his line of sight, Old Jack's fingers suddenly twitched.

With his eyes wide open, he immediately took out a pocket oxygen inhaler from his backpack and put it on for Old Jack.

Breathing in the fresh oxygen, Old Jack's eyes slowly opened. An unnatural flush appeared on the old man's face. It was the afterglow of the setting sun. Old Jack seemed to know this too, he raised his hand with all his might and removed the oxygen machine.

"Give me a cigarette, man." Old Jack said weakly.

Su Yun put away the oxygen, lit a cigarette for him, and put it in Old Jack's mouth.

Old Jack took a deep breath and said, "Hans is here."

Su Yun squinted: "That Hans?"

"Yes, that's him. "He didn't die ?" Old Jack laughed miserably, "But he became a monster. That terrifying strength and speed allowed him to easily kill that child Allen. Right now, Zouger should also be ? "

Zero nodded heavily.

Old Jack suddenly grabbed onto Zero's hand: "Help me protect Leah, that bitch Hans said he wants to ruin her. 'Zero, protect her for me! ' This is my last request, but ? "I don't have any compensation for you ?"

As his voice grew weaker and weaker, Old Jack died just like that, without being able to catch his breath.

His mouth loosened and more than half of the remaining cigarette fell to the ground.

He bent down, picked up the cigarette, and took a long drag. Then, he placed the cigarette on Old Jack's table.

"I'll take your reward ?"

"The commission is valid!"
