This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]

He Yu returned to the laboratory just as Dr. Ganlun came from Zhen Xing's laboratory into the one where Ling Buchen and the others were.

The moment he saw He Yu return, his eyes slowly swept over him from head to toe. Federation citizens were generally tall, and Dr. Ganlun stood slightly taller than He Yu. His scrutinizing gaze carried an oppressive weight.

But He Yu remained perfectly composed, calmly meeting his gaze.

Compared to the Federation people, he looked slender and frail. Yet simply by standing there straight-backed, he refused to be overwhelmed by anyone's presence.

Wanrenzhan couldn't do it.

Zhen Xing couldn't do it.

Eugene couldn't do it.

Dr. Ganlun certainly couldn't.

Dr. Ganlun spoke in a low voice.

"You went to see No. 7?"

No. 7—Eugene.

He Yu nodded, idly twirling his wristband with one finger. A trace of anger flashed through his eyes.

"Doctor, I think if No. 7 isn't useful anymore, you might as well kill him."

[Bullet Screen: "Holy shit! Does He Yu really want Eugene dead?!"]

[Bullet Screen: "What's going on with those two? Why did they suddenly fall out like a pair of elementary school kids fighting?"]

[Bullet Screen: "No idea! Don't kill Eugene!"]

Dr. Ganlun's expression turned icy.

"You don't have the authority to make decisions for me."

He walked toward the laboratory, leaving behind a single sentence.

"People from Mechanical Planet are rare. He's an excellent experimental subject as well. I'll study him when I have the time."

He Yu shrugged and leisurely followed after him with long, unhurried strides.

Inside the laboratory—

Ling Buchen and Qiong were desperately absorbing the medicine. They had already been injected with three doses each.

Duan Yuchen and Siya were in even worse condition. Their bodies, strapped to the operating beds, convulsed nonstop.

"Are you still going to inject them?" He Yu asked.

Dr. Ganlun nodded.

"Of course."

Madness flickered in his eyes.

"No. 5 has already received three doses plus one and one-third doses of the enhanced serum without losing consciousness. It looks like No. 2 and No. 9 can also be given the enhanced serum."

As he spoke, he picked up an enhanced serum and carefully injected half into each of them.

The instant the medicine entered their bodies, both began convulsing violently.

Ling Buchen, who was already in poor condition, coughed blood from the corner of his mouth. His face turned deathly pale.

Qiong's complexion became equally ashen. Her body struggled violently, her neck repeatedly slamming toward the dangerous weapon beside her. Fortunately it hadn't activated yet, but her neck was already covered in bloody wounds.

The sight only drove the doctor into an even greater frenzy.

His eyes drifted toward Duan Yuchen and Siya. Seeing how terrible their condition was, he reluctantly looked away and continued observing Ling Buchen and Qiong.

Throughout the entire process, He Yu merely watched with complete composure.

He said nothing.

Nor did he lend a hand.

[Bullet Screen: "Damn... I seriously can't tell anymore whether He Yu's acting is just too good or if he's actually defected to the doctor!"]

[Bullet Screen: "I firmly believed he wanted to clear the instance together with his teammates, but now... even I'm wavering."]

[Bullet Screen: "Wavering my ass! Our He God is just exceptionally calm!"]

He Yu truly was astonishingly calm.

At three in the afternoon, Duan Yuchen and Siya's condition improved slightly, pulling them back from death's doorstep.

He suddenly spoke.

"Doctor, I think they should also try the enhanced serum. That way you'll have a better comparison."

Dr. Ganlun glanced up, somewhat hesitant.

He Yu asked,

"Are you reluctant to waste the medicine?"

Dr. Ganlun looked at him.

"Shouldn't I be? These two experimental subjects are still inferior to No. 5. No. 2 serves as No. 9's control group. If I inject No. 6 and No. 10 as well, of course it pains me."

After a brief pause, as though thinking of something, he continued,

"Fine. Give them a try. One-third of a dose. Any more than that, and they definitely won't survive."

He Yu nodded, personally picking up the medicine and injecting the enhanced serum into the two of them.

Obviously, however, he injected far more than one-third.

Only one-fifth remained inside the vial.

Of the remaining four-fifths, one-third went to Siya, whose condition was worse.

Everything else was injected into Duan Yuchen.

Holding the empty tube, He Yu blinked innocently.

"Doctor... it seems I accidentally used just a tiny bit too much."

Dr. Ganlun merely glanced at it without paying much attention.

"I believe now that you've truly given up on your friends and sincerely wish to join my research."

—This was practically sentencing them to death.

—If they were truly teammates, he wouldn't have injected them at all.

—Much less pushed them to their absolute limit.

He turned away again and continued observing Ling Buchen and Qiong.

Somewhat surprised, he muttered,

"No. 2 looks weak, yet his willpower is astonishingly strong. Just like No. 9, he survived... and his improvement is incredible."

His voice grew increasingly excited.

"Excellent... Excellent!"

He Yu smiled faintly and looked toward the Duan Yuchen and Siya he had been watching over.

The enhanced serum was incredibly potent.

Ling Buchen and Qiong had first dispersed part of the energy before confronting the remaining energy inside their bodies.

Duan Yuchen and Siya, however, couldn't release any energy at all.

Their entire bodies shook violently.

Veins bulged across their skin.

Their eyes snapped open, bloodshot crimson, filled with agony and desperate resistance.

Clearly, they were fighting with everything they had to preserve their consciousness and keep themselves alive.

Through his blurred vision, Duan Yuchen saw He Yu watching them.

He Yu sat upright beneath the dazzling ceiling lights.

Backlit by the glaring lamps, he resembled a compassionate deity overlooking mortal suffering.

Yet with the last trace of reason remaining, Duan Yuchen could still see He Yu's expressionless face.

Those cold, indifferent eyes.

He was almost unable to hold on.

Then he suddenly remembered what He Yu had once said—

Stay alive.

As long as you stay alive, I'll get all of us out.

Strength returned to his body.

He desperately wrestled with the rampant energy tearing through him, refusing to surrender his consciousness or allow himself to die.

His skin began splitting apart.

Blood flowed freely.

Within the crimson blood, a faint trace of green had already begun to appear.

Siya's condition was even worse.

Her eyes were beginning to change...

Watching them, He Yu slowly spoke.

"Is this all?"

"So this is as far as you can go?"

"If this is your limit, then even if you survive today... you'll still die later."

His voice was gentle.

Yet every word pierced directly into the fragments of consciousness the two of them were desperately clinging to.

—That's right.

—If they couldn't even endure this...

—Then even if they cleared this instance, they would never survive the next one.

Hold on.

They had to hold on!

"AAAHHH—!"

Duan Yuchen roared, his blood-red eyes widening as the energy inside him surged madly.

Siya's convulsions became even more violent as she stubbornly resisted.

The sudden change finally caught the doctor's attention.

His eyes widened.

He shot to his feet and rushed over, his eyes shining.

"My heavens! These two are unbelievably resilient! Their willpower is several times stronger than any previous experimental subjects!"

He immediately reached out.

Not only did he unlock their handcuffs—

He also reached for their wristbands.

The handcuffs had been installed by Dr. Ganlun himself, so removing them was simple.

The wristbands were another matter.

Only Warden Lan Ersi could remove those.

Previously, it had also been Lan Ersi who had unlocked Zhen Xing's wristband.

"Hurry! Lan Ersi! Come help me remove these!"

He contacted Lan Ersi through his smart device, his voice filled with excitement.

At this moment, nothing else mattered.

He was obsessed with research.

These two had shown him extraordinary value.

Lan Ersi arrived quickly.

Tall and slender, standing over two meters in height, he radiated overwhelming pressure.

His brown eyes were exceptionally cold.

He walked with swift, powerful strides, carrying himself with effortless confidence.

After previously dealing with Dr. Ganlun and Lan Ersi's projections, He Yu had never once considered using Lan Ersi as his breakthrough.

—Because this man was both cold and rational.

The moment he arrived, Lan Ersi said flatly,

"Dr. Ganlun, you've already removed two wristbands. Removing two more may have very negative consequences for the prison."

Dr. Ganlun hesitated for only an instant.

On the operating beds, the two hovered between lucidity and delirium.

As though sensing the outside situation—

As though realizing this was the decisive moment between life and death—

Their struggles became even fiercer.

Lucidity even began overwhelming the chaos.

Dr. Ganlun immediately threw all caution aside.

"Remove them! My experiment is going to succeed! They're only wristbands—they can't escape!"

Lan Ersi looked as though he wanted to object.

His brown eyes flickered.

But in the end, he said nothing.

He stepped forward and efficiently unlocked the wristbands without the slightest hesitation.

The instant the wristbands came off, part of the energy dispersed.

Both of their lives were saved.

Lan Ersi turned toward He Yu.

Their eyes met.

He Yu stared directly into his eyes.

His expression never changed.

Yet the corners of his lips subtly lifted, unable to suppress themselves.

Lan Ersi asked,

"Should I remove his as well?"

—The "him" referred to He Yu.

Dr. Ganlun glanced back before replying indifferently,

"No. There's no need."

He wasn't stupid.

Everyone else was lying on operating beds with restraints around their throats.

Only He Yu could freely walk around.

Although he believed He Yu wouldn't foolishly oppose him, he still had to be cautious.

As things stood, He Yu only had two combat power.

He couldn't accomplish anything.

Perfectly safe.

—Research didn't require combat power anyway.

Hearing that, He Yu raised a hand.

His slender fingers lightly adjusted his rimless glasses, a simple motion made graceful by him.

He spoke calmly.

"If the doctor doesn't trust me, then there's no need to remove my wristband."

While speaking, however—

He stared unblinkingly into Lan Ersi's eyes.

Lan Ersi stared back.

He remained standing exactly where he was.

Not even his feet showed the slightest intention of moving.

[Bullet Screen: "Holy shit! Why does it feel like sparks are flying between these two?!"]

[Bullet Screen: "Oh my god, why is my heart suddenly beating faster?"]

[Bullet Screen: "This isn't normal. Absolutely not normal. Even the way He God pushes up his glasses somehow became ridiculously sexy. My god!"]

[Bullet Screen: "He God really has chemistry with everyone. Even with an NPC prison warden! Why do I suddenly think this warden is handsome? I never noticed before!"]

"Lan Ersi?"

Dr. Ganlun turned around, puzzled.

"Aren't you busy today?"

Lan Ersi responded with a calm acknowledgment before turning toward the exit.

As he passed He Yu—

Their sleeves lightly brushed against each other.

Then his figure disappeared completely.

He Yu said nothing.

He calmly withdrew his gaze.

—

Six in the evening.

Five hours remained until Chaos Night.

Ling Buchen, Qiong, Duan Yuchen, and Siya had stabilized for the time {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} being.

Dr. Ganlun hurried off to check on Zhen Xing.

He Yu followed behind him.

After reviewing Zhen Xing's real-time data, Dr. Ganlun's eyes blazed with excitement.

"Hahaha! His base combat power has already reached 1000! And he still hasn't lost consciousness! It can continue increasing!"

1000!

That was base combat power.

Base combat power was extraordinarily difficult to raise.

It represented one's own physical capabilities without any equipment bonuses.

In the Federation, S-rank already qualified someone as a top expert.

Zhen Xing's base combat power had now reached SS-rank.

[Bullet Screen: "Holy shit! That's insane!"]

[Bullet Screen: "If he survives this instance, he'll have turned disaster into an incredible opportunity."]

[Bullet Screen: "The others too... Only He Yu hasn't been strengthened..."]

[Bullet Screen: "He God has it so rough..."]

The Bullet Screen was sympathizing with He Yu.

He couldn't see it.

For some unknown reason, throughout this instance he had only seen the Bullet Screen once, and only briefly.

Besides, even if he had seen it, he wouldn't have cared.

—He could control external energy.

—Whenever he wished, he could pour an immense amount of energy into his own body.

—But now was not the time to become stronger.

The finals had yet to begin.

The truth behind the mastermind had yet to be exposed.

For now, he was perfectly satisfied.

He Yu thought having a combat power of "2" was wonderful.

It made him feel very safe.

Shaking off those thoughts, he looked toward Zhen Xing lying quietly on the bed.

His face remained pale.

Yet he no longer carried that lifeless aura.

He truly was alive.

Alive without ever having lost consciousness.

Only...

He was still unconscious.

Dr. Ganlun picked up another enhanced serum.

Madness filled his eyes as he walked toward Zhen Xing.

Clearly—

He intended to continue the experiment.

Another enhanced serum.

If Zhen Xing received one more, he would certainly lose consciousness.

And it was already six o'clock.

He Yu reached out and blocked Dr. Ganlun.

The doctor frowned.

"What do you mean?"

He Yu answered calmly,

"Doctor, you can't inject him with another enhanced serum. He won't survive it."

Dr. Ganlun had already become half-crazed.

"Why wouldn't he survive? He definitely can!"

He brushed away He Yu's hand and continued forward.

"You'd better remember your place as my assistant. If you want to help him, then encourage him to endure."

He Yu sighed.

"Doctor... I actually dislike people telling me what to do."

"Rather than encouraging him to endure..."

"I'd rather stop you."

Dr. Ganlun froze before laughing in amusement.

"What did you say?"

"Stop me?"

"Are you dreaming?"

He Yu reached toward Dr. Ganlun's neck.

The moment his fingers touched the man's skin, they struck an invisible barrier.

Pain shot through his fingertips.

Throughout the entire process, Dr. Ganlun never dodged.

He was utterly fearless.

He sneered.

"Did you think I'd have no defenses?"

"And even if I didn't..."

"Would I be afraid of someone with only two combat power?"

He Yu's hand remained suspended before his neck.

Tilting his head slightly, his rimless glasses resting loosely on the bridge of his nose, he smiled.

"Of course I know you have defenses."

"So why would I ever choose to confront you head-on?"

As soon as those words fell—

A vial of medicine appeared in his hand.

He Yu smiled curiously.

"I wonder..."

"...whether you're afraid of the medicine you created yourself."

Dr. Ganlun paused before raising an eyebrow.

"You think you can subdue me and inject me with it?"

He looked at He Yu as though he were an idiot.

Completely arrogant.

Completely self-confident.

Leaving aside the barrier capable of blocking any attack—

With He Yu's mere two combat power, subduing him was impossible.

He Yu smiled faintly.

"No."

"I never intended to subdue you."

"So..."

"...this medicine vaporizes."

The instant those words left his mouth, he pinched the vial between several fingers.

With a graceful flick against Dr. Ganlun's defensive barrier—

Smooth.

Elegant.

Natural.

Crack!

The glass shattered.

The medicine inside instantly vaporized.

At the very same moment—

He Yu curled the fingers of his other hand, placed them between his lips, and blew a sharp, ringing whistle.

The whistle shot through the doorway and echoed down the corridor.

In another room—

The instant Eugene heard the whistle, he sprang to his feet, flung aside the handcuffs that had already been unlocked, and exploded in rage.

"Damn it! We were only acting, He Yu! And you actually slapped me across the face!!"
