Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups-Chapter 245 - 192: Call Me Jiang Chen_3

"I’m curious to see, in this day and age, just how much strength the imperial government still retains?"

Professor Zheng felt a chill in his heart upon hearing this, and immediately nodded in agreement.

He was well aware that from the moment he made a deal with the devil in front of him and sold his soul, there would be no turning back.

He could only grit his teeth and shuffle forward step by step through the corridor that seemed to lead to Hell.

Behind him lay the path swallowed by darkness, and ahead, layers of fog and the unknown fear of the Abyss.

......

Rehabilitation Center second floor.

The former security monitoring room had been transformed into a tightly guarded Defense Center by the military.

In front of rows upon rows of flickering fluorescent CCTV screens.

Several monitors, who had been dozy, were jolted awake by the tsunami-like roars from outside.

They hurriedly pulled up surveillance footage to quickly ascertain the situation.

"The source of the noise should be on the fifth floor, in the critical care area, room 513’s door is open."

Immediately after, the camera inside the room was switched on.

"Two soldiers have already been killed."

"Eh, why is it Professor Zheng? And what’s going on with the patient he was talking to..."

At that moment, the lighting fixtures were successively shattered by the sonic waves, and the camera feed suddenly went dark, leaving only the silhouettes of people outlined by infrared.

The person in charge of the Defense Center tensed up and quickly issued a sequence of commands:

"Sound the alarm immediately, dispatch patrol personnel from the other floors to assist in surrounding the fifth floor and prevent the patients inside from escaping in the chaos."

"And notify the Special Search Team to provide support, just in case. The situation here must also be reported to headquarters..."

In the midst of talking, a few more cameras were sabotaged, making the situation on-site even more confusing.

At the same time.

Two members of the Special Search Team stationed at the Rehabilitation Center also woke up from sleep.

Hearing the converged wails and howls within the building, they suddenly realized.

"Not good!"

"It’s the resonance effect of the Ghoul, a Ghoul leader has appeared!"

......

An incessant sharp alarm kept sounding as if it could not stop.

The corridor was pitch dark, with blinding red lights flickering frequently from the ceiling.

What was once an orderly Rehabilitation Center had now turned into a chaotic, bloodstained battlefield.

Gunfire, shouting, screams, and roars continuously echoed through the floors.

Splatters of fresh blood stained the ceiling.

Tat-tat-tat—

Several soldiers wearing night vision goggles and carrying rifles fired and retreated backward simultaneously.

In the darkness, monsters bravely charged forward, each capable of claiming a life in the blink of an eye.

As their numbers dwindled, the hurried footsteps of the few remaining soldiers sounded; they contacted each other through their earpieces, heading to another rallying point.

The monsters, however, kept pursuing them with terrifying cries.

Unnoticed by all, at this moment, a figure lay on the ceiling, silently observing everything.

Fang Cheng had been hiding near the safety passage.

Previously, he had followed Professor Zheng to the fifth floor only to find it heavily guarded, replete with soldiers and cameras every few steps, making stealth impossible.

So he could only wait for the other party to come out again.

Little did he expect that in less than ten minutes,

The man had stirred up such a commotion inside.

Fang Cheng couldn’t help but regret it.

Had he known, he would have simply killed him outright.

There was no need to seek out whoever was behind it all.

Fang Cheng knew he could not wait any longer, so he took the opportunity to sneak in during the chaos, aiming to find Professor Zheng in the dark.

This approach was risky and problematic, but he couldn’t care less.

After such a commotion at the hospital, the military would surely respond with a thunderous approach and quickly suppress the situation.

No matter how ferociously those monsters released from the wards were strutting their stuff now,

When the time comes, a few missiles sweeping the area would turn them all to ash.

As carbon-based lifeforms, no matter how strong their bodies were, they couldn’t compete against modern military’s weapons of mass destruction.

In the midst of the melee, Fang Cheng occasionally dodged stray gunfire and scanned searchingly with rapid eye movements.

Then suddenly, a slightly crazed laugh reached his ears:

"Ha-ha, bullets can’t kill me, you guys are just too weak!"

Hearing this voice, Fang Cheng’s eyes hidden beneath his hood sparked brilliantly, like a wild beast hunting in the dark that had just locked onto its prey.
