Chapter 2000 Control
Gu Qingzhu turned around and looked at Fang Heng again. Her lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but the words that came out of her mouth were words of gratitude.
"Thank you, Fang Heng. You are my first human friend."
After saying that, Gu Qingzhu stepped into the teleportation passage.
Fang Heng watched as the demi-humans filed into the teleportation passage one by one before he followed them right after.
...
On the other side of the teleportation passage in a large central research room at the bottom of the sea, a group of researchers were gathered in the main hall, doing research and development work. When they suddenly saw a player stepping out of the teleportation passage, they did not react immediately. They only felt that this person's face was very unfamiliar.
In the next moment, a sudden change occurred!
A black shadow swiftly surged out from the player's body and instantly charged towards the two guards standing at the sides!
"Not good!"
"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack!"
"Be careful!!"
"Sound the alarm!!"
The guards immediately reacted and raised their firearms to counterattack!
Suddenly, chaos erupted in the entire central research room. The guards sought cover to counterattack the invaders, while the researchers frantically activated the alarm devices. For a moment, everyone was at a loss on how to deal with the situation before them.
It was an invasion! They were being invaded!
This wasn't right!
In the past, all invasion plans, training, drills, simulations, and so on were carried out according to the external invasion method.
Why did it turn out to be real and the attack came from the inside of the teleportation passage?
The training was all for nothing!
The alarm went off, and the guards at the periphery immediately rushed into the research hall to provide reinforcement.
"Over there! Follow me!"
Gu Qingzhu led the demi-humans to quickly gain control of the guards around the teleportation passage. After glancing at Fang Heng, she immediately signaled everyone to attack towards the right area, blocking the approaching reinforcement from the security team.
The large teleportation passage device was set up in the center of the research hall. In the most ideal scenario, they would still need to rely on the teleportation device to return and leave. They had to ensure that the teleportation facilities were not affected by the battle and maintained a stable operation!
When the researchers saw that the intruders were taking control of the hall, they immediately wanted to escape and evacuate. A large number of researchers fled toward several emergency exits.
In the chaos, Fang Heng quickly scanned his surroundings and dashed forward. He grabbed a researcher who looked like a supervisor and grabbed his throat tightly.
"Stop!"
The researcher who was grabbed by Fang Heng felt like crying.
Why was he the only one caught out of so many people?
"I don't know anything. I'm just a hired researcher. Don't kill me, don't..."
"Shut up if you want to live. I'll ask you a question and you'll answer it."
The researcher quickly shut his mouth.
"Don't be nervous. What's your name and identity?"
"Dudley, Dudley Cardle, the leader of the research team here."
"Look, it's very simple. You just need to be obedient and cooperate with me, ok?" Fang Heng's tone softened a bit as he continued, "Let's go to the main control platform together now. I want to know all the defense arrangements on Frostmist Island."
The researcher's throat rolled when he heard that, and then he started to beg, "I don't know anything. Please let me go. I don't have the relevant authority. The security control authority of the entire Frostmist Island is separate from the research institute's authority. The highest authority is only owned by Mr. Miyamoto. I don't have the authority of the alarm department either and without the key, I can't connect to the defense system."
Fang Heng looked at the research coldly and asked, "Miyamoto Teru? Is he the owner of this place? Where is he?"
"I don't know. I've been staying at the research institute. I haven't left this place for five years. Mr. Miyamoto is the boss here, I..."
"Let's go! Go there!"
Under Fang Heng's coercion, Dudley dared not make any moves and was compelled to go to the main control platform of the research institute.
"Stop the alarm at the research institute first."
Dudley quickly pressed a few buttons on the instrument on the console.
"Authority confirmed, password confirmed...The alarm has been lifted..."
After the internal alarm system was deactivated, the buzzing in the teleportation hall finally stopped temporarily.
Fang Heng continued to ask, "Very good. Next question, where are the demi-humans being held captive?"
Dudley swallowed his saliva carefully and replied, "In the third basement."
"You answered so readily? If I'm not wrong, there's an ambush in the third basement, right?"
Dudley shook his head in fear and said, "I don't know. I don't know anything."
"Heh," Fang Heng let out a disdainful sneer and commanded, "Bring me all the blueprints of the laboratory's interior!"
Dudley, not daring to make any sudden moves, quickly brought up the map of the research institute and displayed it on the big screen. Then, he pointed at a certain floor above with a trembling finger.
"We're currently on the seventh basement. The demi-humans are imprisoned in the third basement. That's an isolated area. I heard that it was originally built to imprison demi-humans. I don't know if it's a trap. If you want to find demi-humans, you can only go there...I really don't know anything else. Let me go. I'm just someone helping out..."
Fang Heng glanced at the teleportation passage that was still operating and said coldly, "Shut up, continue to maintain the portal. The moment the portal fails, it will be your death sentence."
Dudley turned pale with fright when he heard that. He immediately lowered his head and began to check the various indicators of the teleportation passage on the main control panel.
At the same time, Gu Qingzhu and the demi-humans also cleaned up the first batch of research institute guards.
Gu Qingzhu came to Fang Heng's side and asked him, "Have you found the imprisoned demi-humans?"
"Yes, they are most likely trapped in the third basement. But we need to be careful of any ambush there."
"I'll bring people over! Stay here and be careful!"
Gu Qingzhu nodded at Fang Heng and signaled for three demi-humans to stay behind to protect Fang Heng. She led the rest of the people back to the passage area below.
Fang Heng turned his head and looked at Dudley, saying, "Switch to surveillance mode. I want to know what's going on outside."
"No, we don't have the authority of the security department module. We can't see everything. We can only see the surveillance coverage of the research institute area..."
Dudley explained and quickly pressed a few buttons on the control panel.
Soon, images of more than ten passages appeared on the big screen.
In some of the images, the guards were rushing toward the seventh basement.
On the other side, Gu Qingzhu and her group, who were rushing to the third basement, encountered quite a bit of trouble.
Everyone was running in the passage when suddenly, dark light spots appeared on the walls around them.
"Whoosh! Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh!!!"
The laser beam hidden in the wall was instantly activated!
Gu Qingzhu and her companions sensed something strange and immediately joined forces to set up a defensive net, only then did they manage to block all the beam attacks. However, many demi-humans were injured as a result.
The demi-humans had no choice but to temporarily stop in their footsteps to heal their teammates, causing their speed to decrease significantly.
