-I must get that healing-type subdued beast!- The idea could no longer be suppressed once it manifested.

Zhang Che couldn’t help but start thinking carefully about whether this trip was too risky.

First, the base was not in San Diego’s city area. Even if there were defenses in place, it would be tight on the inside, but lax on the outside. He only needed to break through the most important circle of defense to infiltrate the base, and escaping would become much easier.

Second, the pharmaceutical company’s human experimentation was done in secret. Due to its confidentiality, its defenses shouldn’t be too eye-catching. Perhaps the defenses put in place weren’t as tight as he imagined.

Lastly, Zhang Che had the Purple Crystal Tortoise. He could have it activate its Purple Crystal Armor skill if necessary, which would provide him an impenetrable physical defense for an hour, unless he was attacked by divine-tier beasts, and could also nullify a large fraction of elemental attacks.

At the very least, if the plan failed, Zhang Che could ensure his safe retreat.

Since that was so, why not take a gamble?

Seeing Zhang Che’s darkened complexion, Chen Lishan knew her request was too much.

However, this was the only straw of hope she could grasp onto. How could she be willing to let go of it so easily?

“Brother Sun, I know my request is too much… but if you’re willing to help me, I… I’ll do anything you want!”

Zhang Che waved his hand lightly. He asked, “You’re saying your brother went to that base with his superior and discovered the secret; he couldn’t bear the immorality of it and spoke to his superior about it, and immediately sent you the news after he was warned by his superior?”

A hint of hope flashed across Chen Lishan’s face. She nodded profusely, “Yes, that’s how my brother’s message went.”

“Then, in other words, your brother is very likely being held in that base,” Zhang Che nodded lightly. He continued, “But it’s been so long. You have to be mentally prepared for the worst.”

-Does that mean he’s agreed to it?- Chen Lishan was overwhelmed with joy. She nodded again, “I only want to confirm if he’s still alive. If there’s a chance, please save him as well. I… I’ll repay you with everything I have!”

Zhang Che sighed inwardly, -What use do I have for your “everything”? If it wasn’t for that shockingly effective healing-type subdued beast, I wouldn’t bother myself with this mess.-

“Alright, wait for me at home. No matter if I succeed or not, I’ll return by tomorrow morning, and we’ll set off for Hua Xia.”

After thinking for a bit, Zhang Che picked out the only two two-star gold-quality beast cards he had obtained from his recent trip to the beast world, together with another two-star silver-quality beast card, and passed them to Chen Lishan. He instructed her, “Activate these beast cards. You’ll be able to defend yourself if anything happens.”

“Thank you so much, Brother Sun! Don’t worry, I’ll do whatever I can to repay you!

Chen Lishan was deeply moved, nearly prostrating before Zhang Che and kowtowing to him.

Zhang Che hurriedly waved his hands, “Don’t. What age are we in now? You’re still talking in this manner. That’s all, then. Just wait for me at home! I’ll get going now.” After instructing Chen Lishan a little more, Zhang Che put on a set of clothing that belonged to her brother and silently left the apartment.

——

The night slowly deepened. Lights lit up everything in the city.

Zhang Che first entered a clothing store and bought a dozen or so sets of clothing, then ran over to an eatery and bought a mountain of food to go.

———

The pharmaceutical company’s secret base was located in the mountains to the northeast of San Diego, about sixty kilometers out. It was already late; there wouldn’t be any taxis willing to brave the dangers of leaving the city.

Zhang Che couldn’t be bothered to find one, either. Let alone the fact that it would delay him, he might not even find the place.

After arriving at the northern sector of San Diego, Zhang Che summoned the Purple Jade Condor and jumped onto it, flying northeast.

As for the first law about not allowing the summoning of subdued beasts in the city? To hell with it! Zhang Che directly flew out the city. No one would bother to care about this. It wasn’t the city center here, anyway…

——

As they flew northeast, approaching the exact location of the base, Zhang Che didn’t directly barge his way in. Instead, he had the Purple Jade Condor stop at the nearby hill. After that, he took out that big bag of cooked food from the Tortoise and started wolfing it down.

Nothing was more important than filling his stomach!

After eating for close to an hour, Zhang Che finally let out a comforted sigh, then took out a barrel of water and gulped it down. He was fully satisfied now!

He recalled the Purple Crystal Tortoise, then had the Purple Jade Condor take to the skies and circle around, scouting the situation outside the base.

According to the information Chen Qikun sent Chen Lishan, the outside of the base was disguised as a large livestock cultivation ground and processing plant, rearing large amounts of animals, and usually had all kinds of people coming and going.

No one would ever suspect that under this gigantic processing plant was hidden a human experimentation base! Many people were locked up in there, living a hellish life.

As Zhang Che had no idea where the entrance to the base was, he didn’t dare to approach it carelessly. He only sat on the hill nearby, waiting to see if the Purple Jade Condor could discover anything.

Regrettably, it was now deep at night. Although there was still a little bit of light coming from the processing plant above the secret base, it was still very difficult for the Purple Jade Condor to find out what the situation there was like.

After waiting for over half an hour, Zhang Che almost couldn’t hold it in any longer and wanted to forcibly barge right in, when a car suddenly drove out of inner area of the processing plant silently, heading straight to the main road outside.

Zhang Che’s instincts told him that this car shouldn’t be simple, because the plant above ground had already shut down for the night. It couldn’t be someone from the external area.

In that case…

———–

A surreptitious butterfly suddenly flew out. When the car was about to pass by the hill Zhang Che was atop, it flew above the car without anyone noticing.

In the next moment, the car suddenly came to a stop.

Zhang Che stood up and ran down the hill. He pulled the door open and sat down in the back seat of the car.

“Go back.”

The car quickly turned back and followed the route it had taken earlier, returning to the processing plant. It drove directly down to the inner area where security was much tighter, stopping at a sealed factory entrance.

“Hey Robert, didn’t you say you have something going on at home? Why are you back here?” A security guard who obviously knew the driver walked up with a doubtful look on his face. He knocked on the car window, and realized that the guy was, for some unknown reason, laying on the steering wheel.

“Damn, what’s with this guy? Is he feeling sick?” The security guard was shocked, thinking that this driver felt sick on his way home and thus drove back here. He hurriedly pulled the door open and dragged him out of the car.

“Help me out! Damn it, this guy is so heavy!” the security guard cried out. Two more guards immediately walked up and worked together to bring Robert to the side. After a simple check on him, they discovered that this guy had fainted and it was impossible to wake him up.

“Quick, go down and call for a doctor. He might have fallen into a comatose state from overwork… Curse it!”

One of the security guards at the factory entrance immediately opened the gates and ran inside in a hurry.

None of them noticed a near-invisible, distorted silhouette came out of the car and follow the security guard into the factory closely…
