The journey to the staircase leading to the top floor was terrifyingly silent. The dark red moonlight in the night sky shone in through the window, making this corridor even more Ghastly. And from time to time, the faintly audible footsteps of patrol sentries lingered on each floor.
At this time, in the form of Doctor Jeffrey disguised by Xia Leng, he was walking along the wall in the shadows.
As long as his keen hearing detected the approaching footsteps of sentries upstairs, he would slow down. Only when they left would he continue to step onto the next floor.
Xia Leng could have silently killed these mercenaries. But he didn't do so. Perhaps in his subconscious, only those mutant creatures and the Baptizers were his sworn enemies that he must eliminate. And devouring these ordinary people, except for serving as blood packs, would not strengthen his strength in the slightest.
Of course, if they took the initiative to provoke him or hinder his plan, Xia Leng wouldn't mind having a little snack.
Although he was cautious during the ascent, his speed was not slow. In less than two minutes, he reached the top floor where Parick's office was located all the way!
However, there were patrol sentries on every floor downstairs. On the contrary, on this most important floor, there were no sentries at all!
Xia Leng didn't walk out easily. He spread his perception ability over the entire floor to detect if there were hidden sentries or the like.
He didn't believe that with Parick's intelligence, there would be no precautions at all.
However, after detecting for a while, there was indeed no activity of any living beings detected on this floor. There were also no surveillance devices or the like.
After devouring the night demons, Xia Leng's night vision ability was enhanced again. He could even see the Obscure light spots formed by infrared devices!
Fortunately, Xia Leng didn't want to waste any more thought and time here. If he hesitated any longer, nothing would be accomplished.
Anyway, he had already transformed into the appearance of others. Even if he was discovered, it wasn't his own face. He could transform into the appearance of others again at any time and infiltrate.
So, Xia Leng took a step from the staircase and stepped onto this highest floor.
Although it seemed very safe along the way, he still understood the principle that the safer the place, the more dangerous it is.
At this time, the light in Parick's office at the end of the corridor was also off. Because at this time, he was still in the combat conference room on the second floor losing his temper at his subordinates.
No matter how one looked at it, one couldn't tell that a person who was usually gentle and refined would have such a loud voice when losing his temper that even on the top floor, one could still vaguely hear the anger in it.
After all, two teams of elite mercenaries were sacrificed. Coupled with the disappearance of the main target this time—the head of the living corpse king. This made it difficult for Parick to explain to his superiors. That's why he erupted with such great anger.
And Xia Leng took advantage of the fact that the meticulous Parick was not on this floor. So he seized the time to come here.
Taking advantage of the hazy night, Xia Leng walked with the darkness and came to the side of this "long-awaited" laboratory like a ghost.
Through the glass window, he locked his gaze on that place name written with formulas all over the whiteboard again—the Land of Corpse Coldness.
At this time, the room was also dark. But there was still a small compartment with a closed door. A glimmer of light transmitted from the crack of the door.
It seemed that these knowledge scholars who were so dedicated that they forgot to eat and sleep were still doing some research inside. Perhaps they were afraid of disturbing the boss in the adjacent office. So they all hid in the small compartment.
Xia Leng walked to the door and tried to gently turn the doorknob.
Creak~
Accompanied by a faint sound of metal rusting, the door was opened. Was the safety awareness of these guys so low?
Xia Leng naturally didn't believe it would be so simple. But now that he had come to this step, he had to go in and find out no matter what.
After entering, Xia Leng also locked the door from the inside. This was to prevent the "prey" from escaping.
As for why he wasn't afraid that locking himself in would cause trouble when encountering danger, it was because this ordinary wooden door was no different from a piece of paper to Xia Leng...
The instruments and facilities in this room were very complete. Demonstrating the wealth and power of Komodo Company. They still had the energy to support scientific research and development even in the apocalypse.
However, the environment inside was as messy as Xia Leng had imagined. It could be said that most of the highly intelligent scientists were too lazy to tidy up. As a result, all kinds of bottles and jars were piled up on the table and the ground.
But miraculously, these scientists could always easily find what they wanted quickly in this extremely messy environment...
Xia Leng didn't waste time on this pile of clutter. He walked straight to the several whiteboards hanging on the wall.
His eyes like a high-definition camera and his brain comparable to a super-strong storage system quickly scanned and memorized all the formulas and other contents on the whiteboards.
He wanted to connect the clues about the Land of Corpse Coldness. However, after a quick calculation in his brain, the results obtained from these complex formulas seemed to have nothing to do with this place name. Nor was it a geographical coordinate.
Of course, all this was only Xia Leng's own conjecture for the time being. Perhaps only those bald researchers understood the meaning of these formulas. As long as he interrogated them or "ate" them, he could get the result he wanted.
A trace of violence flashed in Xia Leng's cold eyes as he looked at the small compartment with the closed door.
After spreading out his perception ability, he roughly detected that there was only one living being inside.
Xia Leng was like an elegant ghost. Lightly stepping over the messy piles of bottles and jars on the ground. Without making a sound, he came to the door.
After approaching the door, the breathing sound inside became more and more frequent and heavier. And there was also a obscure electronic sound mixed in.
This immediately aroused Xia Leng's strong curiosity. So his eyes sharpened and he suddenly turned the doorknob!
Click~
The door opened. But the scene inside made Xia Leng's face instantly turn gloomy.
It was seen that in this small compartment less than ten square meters, there was a table. On the table was an old-fashioned big-ass monitor that was rarely seen even in the old era.
Beside the monitor, a tattered CD player was making a buzzing sound...
A bald middle-aged man in a white coat was sitting in front of the monitor at this time. Wearing headphones on his head. Completely unaware of the person who had suddenly broken in behind him...
Just when the picture on the monitor was switching to a black screen. This wretched man finally saw the figure suddenly appearing behind him through the reflection on the black screen.
