The Chef Rules the Last Days-Chapter 658 - 656: Worlds Apart

Now, behind Su Mo and Lu Chen were not only spiders but also swarms of zombies climbing up through the ventilation ducts.

In Su Mo’s eyes, no matter how one looked at it, apart from focusing on the modification of zombies and mutant creatures, this laboratory was incomparable to Su Yao’s lab.

She and Lu Chen jumped down in a restroom.

Right next to them, a foreigner squatting in the bathroom was cursing in broken English, "Hey, what the hell!"

He also forcefully slapped the door with his hand.

The two walked out of the restroom, and the man still squatting heard another loud noise from the stall next to him, not knowing what had fallen down, he instinctively looked up.

In the quiet bathroom, an air vent in the ceiling had broken open a large hole at some point, and a pitch-black mechanical leg was perched on the door.

"Aaaaaahhh!"

These monsters’ every move was monitored by the laboratory on the third floor, and soon they noticed something was amiss and immediately halted all mutant creatures’ trajectories.

Someone shouted, "Go, find the people!"

The third floor covered an even larger area, and all of the surveillance cameras began operating as Su Mo and Lu Chen made their way toward the Central Control Room, avoiding the cameras along the way.

The hallways here were winding, and the surroundings were filled with offices of all sizes, housing too many departments.

Anatomy, research, genetic engineering...

Jianxiong, who came down from the elevator shaft first, leaped onto a cable bridge and punched a large hole in the top of it with his bare hands before jumping in.

Outside the elevator, it was already crowded with people. They used their superpowers to slowly watch the door being pulled open...

Now the third floor was truly caught in a pincer attack by Su Mo’s team.

On the monitors, these foreigners couldn’t find the two of them at all, but the lights overhead suddenly flickered and then all went dark.

In the electric distribution room, Su Mo looked at the cut wire ends, an eerie smile on her face, "We have to speed up now, I believe those creatures will soon break free from control."

The darkness gave Jianxiong and the others an excellent opportunity.

His entire body hardened, he charged forward as a shield in the front, protecting Li Qian, Zhao Changsheng, and Li He as they descended.

In the darkness, both sides fought fiercely, with only the sparks from the superpowers visible.

As Su Mo and Lu Chen were just coming out of the electric distribution room, a group of special forces soldiers arrived to inspect the area and blocked their retreat.

This time they were facing a group whose overall strength was not low, and Su Mo sensed two Level 6 superpower users.

One of them had the Water Element Attribute.

In the darkness, her bright eyes accurately captured the Water Element Superpower User, "I’ll take him on, you handle the rest."

A high-level Water Element Superpower User could control the moisture within their body, and only Su Mo could contend with him.

For her, the only real threat was that Water Element Superpower User.

The long Thunder Whip cracked through the air, but Su Mo bent down to dodge it before her hands transformed into vines, grabbing hold of the whip crackling with electricity.

The suppression in terms of levels meant that the electric current only tingled slightly when it reached her hands. Su Mo’s vines abruptly swelled and clamped onto the Thunder Element Superpower User’s neck, attempting to twist it off. Meanwhile, the Level 6 Water Element Superpower User gathered a large mass of water planning to conduct the electricity to Su Mo.

She swiftly twisted the man’s neck, meeting his gaze as she did so.

The water within Su Mo’s body began to boil, her sweat scalding her skin, while she manipulated the blood in the opponent’s body to do the same.

The unbearable pain made the other beg out loud first.

Just one level’s difference meant a world of disparity.

Blood flowed from the Water Element Superpower User’s eyes as he covered them to avoid Su Mo’s gaze—no longer endangered by her ominous power. But how could Su Mo miss such an opportunity?

Despite the smoking sensation in her throat and the pain of her cracking skin due to dehydration, she gripped the Tang Blade, utilized her speed superpower, and ran forward at a high velocity. She leaped up and with one swift movement, severed the opponent’s head.

Over with Lu Chen, the space around him froze and formed abundant Cold Ice, numerous tiny ice crystals and Spatial Strangulations instantly killed some lower-level superpowered special forces. The only one who posed a challenge was a Level 6 Fire Element, who was no threat to Lu Chen at all. The Ice Giant Sword he had formed in front of him effortlessly pierced the man’s abdomen, pinning him against the wall.

After dealing with these enemies, both of them drank some Jasmine Tea and Biluochun Tea before directly rushing towards the Central Control Room.

At this moment, all mutant creatures had lost control. From the breach on the third floor, masses of mutants and mutant creatures began to spill out.

The foreigners trapped in the Control Room were now caught between a rock and a hard place, with only a spare machine left under their control. This machine linked directly to the satellites was incapable of integrating with the multitude of mutants to halt their inherent feral outbreak.

Su Mo and Li Qian, and their team unexpectedly gathered in the Central Control Room all at the same time.

Reunited, they knew they didn’t have much time left.

Jianxiong, without a second word, started smashing the main door of the Central Control Room. His arms, solid as steel, dented the door severely.

The continuous pounding resounded like a hammer on the hearts of the researchers and special forces, making someone break down and scream aloud.

"Oh God, what kind of monsters have we created!"

"We’re going to die! It’s all those alliances’ fault—we’re all going to die!"

Eventually, it was with Su Mo’s help and Jianxiong’s full effort that the door to the Control Room was opened.

Bullets flew out immediately, but to Jianxiong, such ammunition had become ineffective.

Using his body as a shield, he protected Lu Chen and the others as they entered, while Li He continuously threw Light Balls onto him from behind.

With healer Li He’s enhancement, everyone was ferociously unstoppable; even if a bullet penetrated their flesh, Li He could heal the wounds instantly.

The inside of the Control Room was in complete chaos. Su Mo and Lu Chen set their sights onto the control machinery. She grabbed one operator by the head and slammed it onto the console, "Destroy all the satellites you’ve placed up there, I can bring you out."

She leaned down and whispered in his ear, "Only you can make it out alive."

This statement ignited a spark of hope in the despairing face of the foreign operator, "Are you... telling the truth?"

Su Mo nodded with a mischievous smile, "You’ve got 5 seconds to consider."

She offered five seconds, but in reality, as soon as her words ended, the researcher’s hand was already on the joystick. Su Mo let go, allowing him to enter a string of commands on the electronic screen.
