Chapter 775 - 637: He Likes Her? (3)
The insight honed from years of fighting has long been like spiritual power, clearly perceiving the surrounding atmosphere and movements.
Shen Tang saw more clearly with spiritual power,
The person was dressed in tight night raid attire, wrapped thoroughly, and approached the window. Seeing the two seemingly asleep, they used a precision instrument to melt a corner of the glass and released colorless, odorless smoke inside.
Shen Tang smelled that abnormal scent again, the same as last time when Jin went into a frenzy!
Jin’s breathing suddenly intensified, unable to hold back anymore, his figure flashed out like lightning!
The window shattered in response, and immediately followed the sounds of intense fighting.
Shen Tang rushed over as well.
"Impossible... I clearly used the Frenzy Potion, how can you still remain conscious?" The person in black stared at Jin in front of him, full of shock.
It seems the black shadow that escaped in the crowd last time was him.
The person in black was incredulous, the potion was specially tailored for Jin, just inhaling a bit would immediately send him into a frenzy. But why did he look better than before?
The person in black was no match for Jin and turned to flee, but Shen Tang had already blocked the retreat, four ice walls rose from the ground, sealing the surroundings tightly.
Primordial Beast Level ice ability, unbreakable!
The beastman trapped inside the ice walls could only make cracks with a full force strike, unable to escape.
Jin’s eyes glowed red, about to deliver a killing blow, Shen Tang hurriedly stopped him, using spiritual power to form invisible chains to bind him, "Keep them alive! Find out who sent them and what’s going on with that potion that frenzies you!"
Yet the person in black immediately opted for self-destruction.
Shen Tang swiftly used spiritual power to invade his consciousness, her enhanced spiritual power had the mermaid’s "Soul Search" ability.
But before she could question, black blood flowed from the person’s mouth as he poisoned himself.
The specially made poison rapidly broke down cells, in a flash, the person turned into a pool of black water.
Even with Shen Tang’s current healing ability, she couldn’t save him. Fortunately, before the body decomposed, she found that vial of potion from the clothes and handed it to the system for scanning.
After system detection, the voice became serious, [Host, this is a very High-level Frenzy Potion. And if I’m not mistaken, it was specially developed for Jin’s body...The potion itself isn’t lethal, only causes frenzy, but the scary part is, the other side can develop such a special potion, showing they fully grasp Jin’s bodily data.]
Upon hearing this, Shen Tang’s heart sank sharply.
She had already guessed who the mastermind was.
On the potion bottle, there was a spiraling gene symbol.
Identical to the markings of those people from the Beast World Continent’s laboratory!
"Jin, I have something to tell you...Where’s the person?" Shen Tang turned her head and found Jin gone.
She hurriedly searched and found the beast-like Jin a few kilometers outside the shelter, still affected by the scent and somewhat losing control.
Fortunately, the intensive spiritual treatment in recent days was effective, this loss of control was far less severe than before. But he still feared hurting Shen Tang, so he ran out alone.
"Ah Jin, it’s me, I’m here." Shen Tang approached slowly.
"Awoo..."
Jin turned to look at her, suppressing the urge to attack with his remaining rationality. Shen Tang quickly used spiritual power to dispel the black aura surrounding him.
Xiao Jin’s dark golden eyes gradually regained clarity.
He transformed back into human form, his clothes already torn during beastification. Shen Tang deftly took out a new outfit from the space and tossed it to him, "Put it on quickly."
Thanks to her frequent shopping trips for the beast husbands, sometimes forgetting to send them, she had a lot of clothes stored in the space... ahem, various reasons; she had quite a collection there, among them, Xiao Jin had the most.
After Jin changed into new clothes, the two returned to their place, closed the doors and windows, and set up an energy barrier. Shen Tang handed him the potion and told him everything she knew.
Jin stared at the spray in his hand, especially the symbol on the bottle, and his eyes flashed red, "It’s those haunting figures again."
Shen Tang, "You recognize this mark?"
Jin nodded, replied coldly, "That group secretly ran a hidden laboratory, I remember very clearly, the laboratory’s mark is this spiral gene pattern."
Shen Tang’s heart tightened, she asked gravely, "The ’group’ you mentioned is ’Hand of Creation’, right?"
Jin looked at her with some surprise; in this world, ’Hand of Creation’ is seen as a supreme and divine presence by most people, yet she guessed it.
Indeed, she is different.
Jin, "What exactly is your identity?"
Shen Tang, "That’s not important, you’ll naturally know in the future. The key now is you, they’re targeting you. How do you know the relationship between the laboratory and the Hand of Creation?"
Actually, Shen Tang had already guessed the connection between the two, but previously without definitive evidence, now she was truly sure.
Xiao Jin furrowed his brow, seemingly lost in memory, then covered his head, showing a pained expression, "I... I remember, I saw this mark, I seem to have been there..."
"You’ve been to the Lord of Creation’s laboratory?"
"Head hurts so much... can’t remember." Jin’s memory became chaotic again, but he was certain that mark belonged to the Hand of Creation’s underground laboratory.
He should... have truly been to that place.
Shen Tang saw his pained expression; her heart felt tightly gripped. The suspicion in her mind became even clearer.
She lightly held his hand, placing it on her cheek, softly saying, "If you can’t remember, don’t think about it now, your memory might have been interfered with by spiritual means."
If she continued, it would only intensify his pain, possibly even triggering a loss of control.
Shen Tang put the potion back into the space.
The sky soon brightened.
After breakfast, Shen Tang intended to go for a walk, but soon heard a clamor in the distance, with many gathered together.
Curiously, she used spiritual power to look over, and saw a familiar figure.
Her expression changed immediately,
Yue Lin?
How did he find his way here?!
