Lantern Sister is still very capable.

Chapter 217 Counterattack

Crimson eyes emitted an eerie light in the darkness, and unseen blades sliced ​​through flesh and blood, severing the source of power.

Pei Hanxing was curled up, trapped by the female insect, but his hands mercilessly slaughtered the insects that were courting him. Another insect crystal hidden in his left abdomen devoured his reason, and his violent killing intent was directed at the female insect.

Kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill

Pei Hanxing's unusual behavior could not be hidden from the laboratory's special cameras. Outside the lens, all the researchers watched the scene unfolding inside with bated breath.

“Mr. D, should we stop it?” one of the researchers of the Class A mutant insect asked.

"No need, I want to see how far he can go." Mr. D's voice was flat, seemingly unmoved by A1843's impending counterattack against A403.

"Thorn-"

Blue blood splattered everywhere, and the male insects clinging to the female insects surged, their sharp antennae protruding from their foreheads, aimed at Pei Hanxing.

Pei Hanxing stared blankly into the void as she broke free from the female insects' encirclement. Her hand, covered in ice crystals, held a small, ice-blue, rhomboid crystal, slightly smaller than the crystal core of an ability user.

Energy flowed within the insect crystal, reflecting into those scarlet eyes.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Pei Hanxing swallowed the insect crystal.

Without any buildup, Pei Hanxing, having consumed a crystal core, began slaughtering the male insects that tried to attack him.

The male insects were small and had limited attack methods. They swarmed towards Pei Hanxing, overwhelming him, but he killed them one by one. Those with insect crystals were dissected, and those without insect crystals were crushed. The entire laboratory was evenly smeared with the blue blood of the mutated insects. Even the cameras were covered with blood droplets. Due to the special material, the blood droplets slid off the cameras without leaving any trace.

Seeing Pei Hanxing recovering while killing the insects, Mr. D spoke up.

"End Experiment Five."

As soon as he finished speaking, the researcher in charge of Experiment No. 5 quickly pressed the button and breathed a sigh of relief.

The experiment where Pei Hanxing was located was sprayed with a layer of mist. After the liquid containing sedative and tranquilizing ingredients knocked out the test subjects, the cleaning robot began the cleanup work.

Under the influence of the medicine, Pei Hanxing slowly closed his eyes. The cleaning robot stepped forward to check on his condition, but was suddenly crushed by him.

"Bang bang—"

The endless stream of icicles emitted a chilling aura, concealing Pei Hanxing within them. The cameras in Laboratory No. 5 were covered in frost, making it impossible to see Pei Hanxing's subsequent actions.

"Close the base and send men to capture test subject A1843." Mr. D calmly issued the order, and the entire base began to close its passages from the outside in. Armed superhuman soldiers stationed there searched for Pei Hanxing's movements in the direction of Laboratory No. 5.

Inside Laboratory No. 5, the remaining Class A mutant insects wriggled, their bodies, stained with the blue blood of their kind, twisting as they moved forward. They devoured the bodies of the female insects whose insect crystals had been taken from them, while clinging to the traces left by Pei Hanxing, greedily absorbing the energy with a special scent left behind when he released his ice-type ability.

At the same time, Pei Hanxing's scarlet eyes dimmed slightly. With each breath, his black pupils recovered for a moment, but then changed again because the power came from another insect crystal that did not belong to a superhuman.

The crimson began to fade, the blue spread, and the black pupils became narrower and more distorted. In the blink of an eye, a pair of human eyes disappeared, and the black vertical pupils were surrounded by blue and white.

Pei Hanxing blinked his burning eyes. His entire visual system had changed. The human eye has a field of vision of only 220 degrees, but now he could see every direction clearly with almost no blind spots.

Feeling a little disoriented, Pei Hanxing shook her head and walked straight in the direction she remembered.

After swallowing the insect crystal, Pei Hanxing did not explode and die. On the contrary, he now felt a continuous surge of power. The insect crystal not only replenished his energy, but he also gained the memories of the female insect, from which he found a way to leave the experimental base.

The sound of pursuers' footsteps came from behind. Pei Hanxing turned around, raised her hand to release her ice-type ability, and paused after seeing the change in her left hand.

In an instant, the ice was released, blocking the entire passage.

The reflection on the ice surface revealed a striking layer of black insect armor on the back of Pei Hanxing's left hand, along with his inhuman eyes.

Within a single breath, Pei Hanxing's expression changed.

He stared at his reflection in the ice mirror, then turned and left in a panic.

Chu Deng seemed to see the despair hidden in those eyes.
