Chapter 97 -77: Alarm
“Secret?”
Zhou Yuan furrowed his brows secretly. What secret could he possibly have?
“Never mind that for now, quickly ask Chen Guangxi if she’s seen the creature in the painting,” the second persona reminded.
He was referring to the second painting the old man showed later, depicting a man shrouded in a dark aura battling against a burly creature covered in beastly fur. The man’s face was precisely that of Zhou Yuan.
“Do you know what this thing is?” Zhou Yuan pointed at the beastly creature in the painting and asked Chen Guangxi.
Chen Guangxi shook her head, “Never seen it before, but I’ve already sent the painting to the Control Bureau, let them investigate. We should get some news soon.”
She looked around, “Let’s find Qin Youwen first.”
“Qin Youwen is in the fourth cell to my left. He hasn’t made any movement for more than six months,” said the old man in the cell.
Man and dragon quickly moved to the side and arrived at Qin Youwen’s cell.
The cell was very simple, one could say it was completely empty. There wasn’t even a bed, only a huge transparent crystal standing there, with Qin Youwen sealed inside, seemingly in a deep sleep.
Qin Youwen’s body had undergone several terrifying, horrifying mutations. Eyes opened on his arms, several baby arms grew out of his back, and an ugly, partially developed head sprouted from his abdomen.
This head’s eyes were closed tightly, but its mouth was open, as if screaming.

One of his hands was as large as a basin, while the other was as delicate as a child’s hand, tightly holding a phone, his only means of contact with the outside world.
The skin on his face and neck showed burn scars like those from electric shocks, forming a terrifying pattern. These burn scars were covered in knife cuts, crisscrossing in varying depths, making his face appear incredibly ferocious.
The second persona was shocked, “Turtles! He’s infected with twenty-five types of abnormal diseases, it’s a miracle he’s still alive! His vitality has surpassed that of a cockroach!”
Twenty-five… Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but gasp in surprise.
A biochemical host, an Unmatched Poison King.
So many kinds of abnormal diseases in one body would certainly cause severe conflicts, rapidly accelerating the pollution and mutation, no wonder Qin Youwen’s body had become like this. But this also indirectly proved his strength; he still hadn’t died…
This person was terrifying!
“Rank 5.”
Chen Guangxi coldly mentioned, clearly stating Qin Youwen’s rank.
“The Intelligence Department turned everything upside down and still couldn’t confirm that Qin Youwen was an extraordinary person. I almost believed he was an ordinary one. Now looking at this, it’s clear he’s a high-ranking steward from the Land of Truth hidden in Xinhu, responsible for the ‘Ten Calamities’ project.
But…”
After a brief pause, Chen Guangxi voiced her confusion, “Why did he come to this asylum?”
The intelligence said Qin Youwen developed a mental illness a year and a half ago, so his family sent him here, but that was obviously nonsense. His reason for being here was definitely more complicated.
Could it be… another ‘Ten Calamities’ was hidden here?
Whatever, let’s use the spell and do a soul search first.
Chen Guangxi immediately performed the Soul Searching Skill on Qin Youwen, pure white spell radiance accompanied by runes lit up, then abruptly extinguished.
The spell had failed.
“This glass can actually block spells.” Chen Guangxi was a bit stunned.
“Then we have to break the glass wall to get him out… but won’t that trigger the prison alarms?” Zhou Yuan frowned and then looked at the red patient uniform man unconscious on the ground.
Did this guy trigger the alarm when he escaped?
He searched for a moment and soon found an empty cell, with a corner of the glass wall shattered enough to allow a person to crawl through.
Chen Guangxi observed for a moment, “Looks like there won’t be any problem, he’s been out for so long and no one noticed.”
She didn’t waste time and slapped the glass wall of Qin Youwen’s cell. With a dull bang, the glass shattered.
Next second, a piercing alarm sounded, and red warning lights began flashing urgently.
“Uh…” Chen Guangxi was a bit embarrassed. Had she used too much force?
Thud thud thud…
The sound of chaotic footfalls came from outside, and within moments, a group of heavily armed guards carrying electric batons rushed in.
How did they arrive so fast? Like an NPC refresh… Zhou Yuan felt immense pressure from these guards and quickly spoke, “Don’t panic, I’m a doctor, I want to take this patient out for surgery.”
He was still wearing a white coat, signifying his identity as a doctor, hoping to bluff his way out.
“You damaged the hospital’s property and facilities. Even if you are a doctor, even if you were the chief, you still have to come with us to the security room!”
The guards didn’t buy it, one by one, they swung their electric batons fiercely and charged.
“I’ll do the soul search, you stop them,” Chen Guangxi flew directly into the cell.
“Do it quickly.”
Zhou Yuan immediately activated Aoneng Power.
Muddy Shadow Pool!
A large amount of dark matter surged from the ground; once the guards stepped in, it was like entering a muddy swamp. Their feet were firmly stuck, making movement difficult, and if they stumbled, they wouldn’t be able to get up again.
“Bunch of trash!”
The burly security captain charged in from the doorway, his face full of ferocity, like a small mountain. He stomped onto the dark matter fiercely, the terrifying force temporarily shattered the Muddy Shadow Pool, losing its form.
Thud thud thud!
Every step the security captain took felt like an earthquake, carrying a gust of wind, like a charging elephant.
Having fought with Chen Guangxi before, Zhou Yuan knew how to deal with strength-type opponents—kite them!
He instantly turned into a shadow and disappeared. Immediately, countless tempered shadow spikes erupted, shooting at the security captain from all angles.
“Useless, useless, useless!”
The security captain roared, flailing his fists so fast that numerous afterimages appeared. The incoming shadow spikes were all shattered into dark fragments.
He twisted his foot, suddenly turning and pouncing towards a corner, where Zhou Yuan had been hiding!
Sensitivity was sharp! Surprised, Zhou Yuan immediately used Teleportation to move out of there, appearing beside the red patient uniform man, kicking him towards the security captain to create a brief distraction.
Then he quickly took something out of the Storage Ring and carried it on his shoulder.
This mission was for the Control Bureau; there’s no way he wouldn’t bring the real deal.
The security captain slapped the red patient uniform man away and then saw what was on Zhou Yuan’s shoulder, freezing momentarily.
—A rocket launcher!
