Chapter 1: Awakening of Talent Chapter 24: Battle of Speed!
Wilderness town.
There is the ruins of a collapsed villa.
The ruins of this villa are now covered with vines.
But no one could have imagined that deep underground in the ruins of this villa, there was a mysterious experimental base.
The entire underground experimental base is half the size of a football field and is filled with a rough industrial style. It is more like a large prison than a base.
There are dozens of steel cages in the dimly lit base.
In each steel cage, there are dozens of numb-looking prisoners.
The air was filled with a shabby and unpleasant smell, a mixture of blood, sweat, and excrement, which completely stimulated people's sense of smell.
There were also dozens of fully armed guards patrolling back and forth, armed with guns.
"Manager, it's six o'clock in the afternoon. The sun is almost setting."
A man in combat uniform was reporting to the base supervisor, Anthony Wong.
Zhang Yaoyang put his feet on the desk, his eyes were gloomy and fierce, like a wolf ready to devour someone.
"Have all the test subjects been injected with Type B Beast Transformation Potion?"
Zhang Yaoyang said lightly.
"All the injections have been completed. Wait about 10 minutes for the B-type animal transformation potion to take effect."
The man in combat uniform quickly replied.
"Very good!" Zhang Yaoyang put his hands on the chair and stood on the desk suddenly, looking ferocious: "Open all the cages immediately and release all the test subjects."
"Let's ask the senior apprentices from the top ten high schools in Jiangcheng to help us test the effects of the Type B Beast Transformation Potion to see if there are any areas that need improvement."
The man in combat uniform immediately went down to carry out the order.
Soon after, ferocious roars were heard from deep within the base, as if countless monsters had been released from their cages.
…
On a shabby old street...
Boom!
Two figures that were constantly colliding and intersecting suddenly appeared here. The violent force directly shattered several abandoned old-fashioned cars around into countless scrap metal.
"No more fighting, no more fighting..."
Suddenly, a burly and strong figure retreated a dozen steps and stopped on the old street. He kept breathing heavily and sweat kept dripping from his head.
"Not so soon?"
Chu Zhou smiled as he looked at Shi Meng, whose body was covered with bloodstains.
Shi Meng rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Chu Zhou, you bastard, you are so mean."
"You had at least 50 chances to defeat me, but you gave up every time... Did you treat me as a tool to hone your fighting skills?"
"What a tool man! That's too harsh to hear... although it's true." Chu Zhou chuckled.
He actually admitted it directly!
Shi Meng's face was full of black lines.
If he was able to defeat Chu Zhou, he would definitely beat him until Chu Zhou’s face was covered with peach blossoms.
"Tsk tsk, Shi Meng, what's that look you have? The latest beggar's outfit? It's quite unique!"
A light laugh was heard, and a woman with long flowing hair and an elegant temperament appeared on the roof of the two-story bungalow next to her.
The person coming is Li Qingshi!
"Li Qingshi, what are you laughing at? I am not his opponent, but are you? If you have the guts, fight him too!"
Shi Meng looked at Li Qingshi on the roof and said with a roll of his eyes.
"Student Chu Zhou, are you okay?" Li Qingshi blinked mischievously.
"Yes! It must be done!"
Chu Zhou puffed out his chest. How could a man say no?
"Then I'll do it!"
Li Qingshi's figure disappeared from the roof in an instant.
The next moment, a sharp dagger appeared in Chu Zhou's sight.
“What a fast speed!”
Chu Zhou's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately used an arc-shaped hand knife to cut out an extremely sharp scarlet arc, cutting towards the dagger.
However, before the sharp scarlet arc could cut the dagger, the dagger suddenly disappeared.
Swish!
The dagger appeared from another direction and stabbed Chu Zhou again.
Another scarlet arc cut towards the dagger.
The dagger disappeared again, and suddenly appeared behind Chu Zhou, stabbing his back.
Chu Zhou suddenly turned around and slashed down with his knife, like a death scythe.
The dagger disappeared again.
In this way, the two sides fought dozens of times in a flash, but no formal collision occurred.
This way of fighting is extremely fast, thrilling and exciting.
If either party reacts slowly, they will be pierced by the dagger or cut by the extremely sharp hand knife.
It's like two artists dancing on the edge of a knife fighting each other, which creates an artistic conception.
"Chu Zhou is awesome!" Shi Meng was amazed at the lightning-fast exchange, "Even Li Qingshi, who has superb assassination skills, couldn't do anything to him, and couldn't even make him panic..."
He was well aware of Li Qingshi's superb assassination skills.
Every time, he was put in a very embarrassing situation by Li Qingshi's elusive assassination skills.
Basically, he relied on the Nine-fold Shock Fist to shake the air or the ground over a large area, forming a large-scale attack, forcing Li Qingshi to confront him head-on, and then turn the situation around...
In the end, relying on his more abundant physical strength, he dragged Li Qingshi down.
Chu Zhou's performance was obviously much better than Shi Meng's.
Shi Meng could see that Chu Zhou was actually able to handle Li Qingshi's elusive assassination attacks very easily.
Even the breathing rhythm was not disordered at all.
"Fuck, Chu Zhou, that bastard, is deliberately holding back his strength again, using Li Qingshi as a tool to hone his combat skills..."
Shi Meng glared and saw through Chu Zhou's intention, but he quickly smiled.
"Hehe, I'm not the one being the tool this time! That doesn't matter... Besides, I can't be the only one being the tool!"
Shi Meng chuckled and did not remind Li Qingshi.
He simply sat on the grass and watched the show.
Li Qingshi used all his strength to display his skills, combined with the assassination techniques he had practiced for many years, and attacked Chu Zhou again and again.
Her figure is like a ghost, and her dagger is even more elusive.
But after 108 consecutive unsuccessful assassination attempts, she suddenly realized something when she saw Chu Zhou's calm demeanor.
Chu Zhou's reaction speed is very fast now.
But...actually he can be even faster.
She knew that Chu Zhou also practiced the Blade Kick.
The blade kick, although it is an offensive skill, is not a physical skill.
But after all, it is related to the legs, and it can speed up to a certain extent.
Especially in short-distance speed burst, the effect of blade kick is very significant.
However, in the battle up to this point, Chu Zhou has never used the blade kick to increase speed.
Otherwise, the balance of victory would have tilted towards Chu Zhou long ago.
It was obvious that Chu Zhou deliberately retained his strength.
"This bastard is using me as a tool to hone his fighting skills."
Li Qingshi retreated dozens of meters and stared at Chu Zhou angrily.
"Hahaha, Li Qingshi, you finally figured out that Chu Zhou, that bastard, is using you as a tool..."
Shi Meng laughed.
"You're an asshole too!"
Li Qingshi glared at Shi Meng fiercely. Shi Meng found out the truth but didn't tell her. It was a pity that Chu Zhou had treated her as a tool for so long.
"Hey, none of you can do it! You are too weak and lack resilience! Besides...what's wrong with being a tool? Tools are also people!"
Chu Zhou sighed, and with a flick of his right foot, he suddenly cut towards a moss-covered bus next to him like a sickle.
With a "whoosh" sound, the bus was cut in half.
He looked slightly pleased. Through the training of two tools, Shi Meng and Li Qingshi, his blade kick had finally been promoted to the perfect level.
"Perfect blade leg?"
Shi Meng and Li Qingshi stared at this scene.
Then, he thought that Chu Zhou’s blade leg had been promoted to the perfect level, which was probably due to the contribution of these two tools.
Suddenly, they felt uncomfortable.
"Ling Zhan has a very accurate vision... This is indeed a very scary guy!" Li Qingshi exclaimed.
"Everyone says we are monsters... I think he is the monster. His artistic conception-level curved hand knife, perfect-level blade kick... Moreover, his life field energy is definitely not just 3.5, it must be at least 4. Have you ever heard of such a high school student?"
"Ling Zhan has really met his match this time."
Shi Meng said.
Li Qingshi nodded slightly, agreeing with Shi Meng's words.
They all knew how powerful Ling Zhan was... but after fighting with Chu Zhou, they thought that Ling Zhan might not be Chu Zhou's opponent.
"Ah! Help! There's a monster... There's a monster..."
Suddenly, a shrill scream came from not far away.
Chu Zhou, Shi Meng and Li Qingshi immediately looked in the direction of the voice and found a student with a broken arm running away in panic.
Suddenly, a humanoid monster with exposed muscles and as if its skin was peeled off chased up from behind, knocked the student to the ground, and then bit off the student's throat .
"What is that? That's not a monster!"
The expressions of Chu Zhou and the other two suddenly changed.
Soon, shrill screams were heard one after another near the street, and humanoid monsters with bare muscles kept appearing in the sight of Chu Zhou and the other two.
"Something is wrong! These humanoid monsters definitely don't exist in this town... I'm afraid something unexpected has happened."
Chu Zhou, Shi Meng and Li Qingshi all looked unhappy.
The occurrence of this sudden change made them all feel a huge crisis.
You can tell at a glance that the origins of those humanoid monsters are not simple .
Such a crisis is probably not something that senior apprentices like them can handle.
