Chapter 151: Chapter 137: Bright Future
âWhereâs the big guy? Isnât he coming with us?â
As Xu Yijing was tuning a motorcycle, which belonged to An Zhijieâs adoptive father, Mr. An, she was somewhat surprised to see Tao Yu arrive alone.
âThe motorcycle canât fit both of us, so I arranged for him to do something else.â
Tao Yu had already hidden Wino in the shadows, anyway, he tried not to do such things in front of others.
You never know when it might become an ace in the hole.
Showcasing oneâs edge to gain benefits is certainly necessary, but what needs to be hidden must be hidden.
âŠ
Tao Yu, who often overcame strength with weakness, certainly didnât want to become such a targetâŠ
âThe research institute is not far, and I also discovered online that before things broke out, he had already posted relevant warnings. Itâs feared that problems had arisen before the descent of the Rainforest.â
Xu Yijing finished tuning the motorcycle, then got on it directly, and Tao Yu also sat in the back seat, letting her drive and lead the way.
âLetâs go.â
With the twist of the throttle, the motorcycle left the underground garage and headed toward their destination.
Monsters occasionally appeared on the road, but ordinary monsters really didnât have much they could do against a high-speed moving motorcycle.

Although Tao Yu left behind two ordinary assault rifles to lighten his load, he still carried the AT200 and the Warlordâs Sidearm with him.
Though the Warlordâs Sidearm auto-replenished only one round per minute, it was just enough for this situation.
Any fool who didnât have eyes would get a bullet as a reward.
They then smoothly arrived at a research institute.
However, it was quite apparent that something significant had happened at this institute. Not only was it devoid of people, but bloodstains and corpses were everywhere, and there were even bodies of fully armed personnel.
âThere definitely is a problem; otherwise, it wouldnât have turned out like this. Why does it seem like some people were shot to deathâŠâ
Tao Yu was not too surprised by the scene before him.
Sometimes, humans can indeed be scarier than monsters.
âHis office is this way; letâs go in and look around.â
Xu Yijing led Tao Yu upstairs to her fiancĂ©âs office.
But the scene was a mess, with various items scattered on the floor. There was not a single piece of research material; the file cabinets appeared to have been emptied.
There were also many bloody handprints on the glass, which seemed rather eerie.
Xu Yijing went straight to her fiancĂ©âs desk and began to rummage around. According to her fiancĂ©âs habits, she indeed found a tablet hidden in a compartment between two drawers.
âWeâve got something.â
Xu Yijingâs face showed a hint of joy, but just then, Tao Yu frowned, looked outside, and said in a deep voice,
âBe careful, someone is coming in. Donât move from this spot.â
Upon hearing this, Xu Yijing was also startled; she nodded and then hid behind the desk.
Although she was once a special forces soldier with strong operational capabilities,
She had seen what he was capable of; there was really no need for her to drag him down!
The approaching people tried to lower their voices as much as possible, but Tao Yu could still hear their footsteps.
And there were quite a few of them!
From the sounds of friction, they were likely armed personnel.
He hadnât expected to be targeted just yet, having not made it to the military base, but simply coming to an abandoned research facility.
âIt looks like someone has been keeping an eye on this place, otherwise they couldnât have arrived so coincidentally.â
Since there was nobody here anymore, they wouldnât come over for no reason; the only possibility was that theyâd detected the presence of both him and Xu Yijing.
Clearly, the newcomers did not have good intentions!
If this had happened in the past, Tao Yu, in broad daylight against a group of fully armed personnel, would have had to think twice, and his best course of action would have been to slip into the shadows stealthily, find a good angle for a surprise attack, and strafe them.
Just like when he dealt with the Wild Wolf Gang.
But now, at least in this world, his options had increased!
âIf you come up here, I will shoot you dead, so tell me, what do you want?â
Tao Yu stood at the corner of the stairwell, without exposing himself to the line of fire, directly issuing an inquiry and a warning, wanting to understand their motives.
Places like research institutes are always about gaining benefits, right?
He had initially thought of pocketing some research materials, but the files had already been emptied, most likely by the very people before him.
But obviously, Tao Yuâs words carried almost no deterrent effect.
The next moment, a concussion grenade was tossed from the top of the stairs.
It bounded off the walls, heading straight for Tao Yuâs direction.
It was just a simple, precise throw, but it was clear that the thrower was well-trained.
However, Tao Yu, who had been on alert the whole time, was unfazed.
The moment the concussion grenade appeared, he had already flashed towards the window, his body shrouded with a surge of black mist that cloaked him entirely!
This time, under Tao Yuâs deliberate control, the black mist also enveloped his clothes without tearing them to shreds!
âThe Meditation Technique is truly divine, with so many interactive abilities.â
Tao Yu thought contentedly that it was his continuously refined and purified mental power and thoughts that allowed him to control it so effortlessly.
Otherwise, the Demonization Skill at just LV1 certainly wouldnât be so easy to handle!
Bang~
When the concussion grenade exploded, Tao Yuâs claws, now covered with a black keratin, had already pierced into the wall outside the window.
The surging Free Energy continued to pour into his body, compensating for the consumption of the Demonization.
Tao Yu felt that it wouldnât be a problem to maintain the Demonization state at all times in the current world!
He then quickly scurried around to the stairwell like a gecko climbing walls and plunged straight in through the window!
An armed personnel who had just heard some noise and turned his head was immediately struck by a palm, which caved in his skull and slammed him against the nearby wall, killing him instantly.
Roar~
A tiger-like roar seemed to appear in the ears of everyone present; amid the sudden assault and this intimidation, there was simply no time to react.
With one swipe per person, Tao Yu killed the majority with his paws.
In the end, only a team leader was left alive.
âI didnât expect the team leader to be a great beauty, quite the charmer,â he mused.
The remaining team leader, seeing Tao Yuâs ferocious Dragon Armor and hearing his mocking words, her eyes were full of shock.
âA special infected who can control themselvesâŠâ
But before she could finish her sentence, Tao Yuâs fingertip had flicked across her face, leaving a deep bloody gash.
âI really donât like your tone, you need to understand your situation.â
âYouâre a rational special infected, you need to cooperate with our research, we can create a vaccine, we can save all mankind!â
The woman, ignoring the wound on her face, said somewhat hysterically.
âSave all mankind?â
Tao Yu sneered and flicked his finger.
With a spur of power, her arm drooped, and she let out a scream of pain.
âYou canât even save yourself.â
âReally, we had a special infected who escaped earlier, and we managed to develop a vaccine from himâŠâ
Even as cold sweat beaded on her forehead from the pain, the woman still tried to continue persuading.
Tao Yuâs eyes brightened upon hearing this.
âA vaccine from this? Whereâs the research data? I want to see to confirm.â
He hadnât expected that a purely conceptual thing like this would have a vaccine.
The power of Demonization was strong, even the ordinary version of Demonization. The power, deriving from oneâs desires, could likely be complementary and cohesive abilities.
A beggarâs version of the Kaleidoscope Sharingan for the physical body.
But itâs too contaminated, and besides, you need to withstand it for fifteen days to acquire it; the side effects are too massive.
This also led to a great decrease in the inherent value of the skill itself.
If they really could develop a vaccine, then bringing it to Floating City for research could substantially reduce the side effects, enhancing the original value of this world.
âIf the vaccine is hard to get, its very price is high enough to be exchanged for money; if the vaccine is easy to get, the price of Yuan Force skills in this world would increase, either way, I profit.â
Tao Yuâs heart gradually lifted with excitement.
If it was the original version of Demonization, the efficiency of hunting for Yuan Force might not be better than that of hunting Aliens, but if the vaccine was easy to acquire, with the massive boost from this world, he could recklessly hunt.
Even if not for the lacking talent Yuan Force, just with some time, before the prices of skills crashed, he could Deify several key skills!
At the very least, he could sell the rare and expensive vaccines at a high price, never a lossâŠ
