"Meow!"
At that moment, the black cat in Xiao Feng’s arms let out a sound and then broke free from his embrace, leaping down.
"Xuanji!"
Xiao Feng instinctively called out the name.
However, to Xiao Feng’s surprise, the black cat abruptly halted and turned to look at him.
In its oil-green eyes, a fleeting hint of joy flashed.
Soon after, it dashed towards a door within the command post.
Xiao Feng hurriedly followed.
The behavior of the black cat was unusual, indicating there was definitely something wrong.
This command post was situated in the former official office building of the county.
Following the black cat’s erratic movements, Xiao Feng arrived at an underground warehouse.
Along the way, Xiao Feng saw many ordinary people armed with weapons.
All the previous evolved individuals had been killed by Xiao Feng, leaving only these ordinary people.
Upon seeing other evolved individuals dead, they immediately seized their weapons and went on the defensive.
Seeing Xiao Feng, these people opened fire immediately.
However, Xiao Feng effortlessly blocked all the bullets using his telekinesis.
Observing the heavily guarded underground warehouse, Xiao Feng’s interest was piqued.
The number of guards had multiplied significantly here.
The warehouse door was locked.
Finding the key to unlock the warehouse from the deceased guard nearby, Xiao Feng proceeded to unlock it.
"Meow!"
Suddenly, the black cat let out a cry and took two steps back slowly.
In response, Xiao Feng retreated as well, conjuring a protective shield using his telekinesis.
As the heavy door slowly opened, Xiao Feng noticed it weighed probably over a thousand kilograms.
It was constructed from reinforced concrete and steel bars.
Rat-a-tat-tat!
At the moment the door was opened, gunfire erupted, and a flurry of bullets shot out from inside.
Looking inside, dozens of evolved individuals behind the door were firing weapons wildly outward.
Due to the warehouse’s sealing, the evolved individuals inside hadn’t been affected by the gas canisters, ensuring their survival.
Moreover, there were surveillance devices inside monitoring the outside situation, providing a clear view of what was happening.
Xiao Feng’s telekinetic barrier blocked the frenzied attack, causing everyone inside to be instantly knocked over.
Walking in slowly, Xiao Feng was stunned by the sight inside.
What appeared to be an ordinary warehouse from the outside was actually a laboratory.
Several dozen researchers were crouched in a corner, trembling in fear.
Over a dozen evolved individuals were on the ground, unable to get up and wailing in pain.
"Send a few people to the underground warehouse over here!"
Xiao Feng dialed a number on his phone, immediately calling for reinforcements.
Approaching the trembling researchers, Xiao Feng sensed through his telekinesis that they were all ordinary people.
"These are all talented individuals!"
Thoughts raced through Xiao Feng’s mind.
The expansion of the resturant required a large influx of talent.
However, individuals with special abilities were the ones heavily sought after by various shelters.
It was certain that not all these people could be taken away.
At the arrival of individuals from Shelter No. 1, they would take direct control of this place.
Some of these talented individuals would naturally be recruited by them.
If they couldn’t discreetly gather some of the talent and important resources before their arrival, it would be a waste.
"What were you researching here?"
Xiao Feng asked, looking at the sophisticated instruments on the table.
"Don’t worry, all the evolved individuals outside have been eliminated by me. All the ordinary people here are safe now!"
"..."
The dozens of researchers tremblingly remained silent.
At that moment, Wang Qiang and others entered and directly eliminated the struggling evolved individuals.
Seeing this, these talented individuals finally believed in Xiao Feng’s words.
"You... Have you really taken over this place?"
At that moment, an elderly man with white hair trembled as he stood up.
"Professor Liang!"
A middle-aged man wearing glasses immediately stopped him.
"Even if they’ve taken over, it’ll just become another Wu Lin!"
Hearing this, everyone lowered their heads.
"Don’t worry! We won’t take over here. I’m the owner of a resturant in Yu Lin City. This place will be taken over by Shelter No. 1. When they arrive, if you want to come with me, you’re welcome. If you don’t, I won’t force you. I’m just curious!"
"You’re the owner of that resturant in Yu Lin City?"
At that moment, a young student asked in surprise.
"You know me?"
"I... When I was here, I heard about your resturant . You’re based between major powers, only doing business without getting involved in disputes. Plus, no matter who arrives at your place, you ensure their safety. You’re like the Peace resturant in the apocalypse!"
This student immediately recounted the reputation of Xiao Feng’s resturant .
"Hehe! Seems like I still have some fame!"
Xiao Feng chuckled.
His gentle and relaxed demeanor relieved everyone.
However, they still held some defensive thoughts.
"No need to say, with some of the devices here, I know what you’re up to!"
Xiao Feng slowly picked up a blueprint.
"You’re researching the internal structure of the mechs, right?"
The blueprint vividly depicted the external appearance and internal construction of some mechs.
It was too sophisticated for Xiao Feng to understand.
But...
Xiao Feng suddenly became puzzled.
If it was just some research, was it worth the Black Cat leading him here?
"Meow!"
At that moment, the Black Cat’s cry interrupted Xiao Feng again.
Looking over, the Black Cat was scratching in front of an iron door.
Curious, Xiao Feng walked over.
"Don’t go!"
The elderly professor immediately stopped Xiao Feng.
"Why?"
Xiao Feng asked skeptically.
The more unusual these people acted, the more important what was behind the door seemed.
"Behind that door is another laboratory!"
The old man walked slowly.
Other researchers followed suit.
"The underground of this building consists of several interconnected labs and research rooms!"
Professor Liang explained.
"Behind this door is another biological research lab, also guarded!"
Xiao Feng became curious.
However, he didn’t forcibly break it open. Instead, he dispersed his telekinetic power, allowing it to penetrate the iron door to observe the situation inside.
Looking in, he saw a lab of about 200 square meters behind the door.
There were seven to eight researchers being held hostage by a group of evolved individuals.
They had realized the situation here and, in desperation, were using these ordinary people as shields.
But these hostage-taking tactics had no effect on Xiao Feng.
Kicking open the iron door, Xiao Feng walked straight in.
In a distant corner, more than ten evolved individuals stood in front of the researchers, loudly threatening, "Don’t come any closer! If you do, I’ll kill them!"
But the next moment, a needle used for injections viciously pierced into the person’s head. After piercing through, it immediately flew toward the next person.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Feng used telekinetically controlled objects to eliminate them all.
