Rules of Horror: Yan Shuangying's Causality-Defying Bullet Trajectory
Let go!
Sing Sing was still lying on the iron plate in the distance. When he saw Li Ding'an being pulled over with his knife, he shouted at the top of his lungs.
Without needing any prompting, Li Ding'an released his grip the moment the blade sent a jolt back.
He kicked off the test subject's forearm and used the momentum to flip backward.
The ultimate living weapon in the white mist swung its broken blade, grazing past Li Ding'an's scalp.
Different colored energy patterns moved beneath the pale skin of the experimental subject.
A metal core was embedded in his chest, alternating with the beating of the three hearts inside his body.
Beside her, Miss Sinister stood up, large granulation tissue sprouting from the wound on her left shoulder, the injury healing rapidly.
"Cough... you almost succeeded."
She wiped the blood from her chin, and her forehead lit up again as a scarlet beam of light entered the back of the test subject's head.
The experimental subject, whose eyes had been vacant, tensed up, and his head clicked twice.
"Come on, let me give you a grand introduction to this artwork created by the Silver Peak Consortium at a cost of tens of billions of US dollars!"
Miss Sinister floated back to a height of three meters in the air, arms outstretched, her voice filled with the madness of someone who had survived a near-death experience:
"Laser, keratinous bone armor, extreme cold breath, molecular oscillation, high-frequency bone blades... plus the cell deformation gene purified from Jacob Jr. as a bridge!"
"I have perfectly integrated twelve top-tier dominant variant abilities into this body. There are no weaknesses, no fears, and no computational delays!"
"Stephen Chow, you and your ridiculous Five Insurances and One Housing Fund, go be the first appetizer for my masterpiece!"
The test subject's empty eyes began to focus, and after taking in all eight people, red light instantly emanated from them.
"Get down!"
Yan Shuangying pulled Xu Xi back into the left pillar, the heat wave sweeping over their coats.
Sing Sing climbed over another pillar, and as soon as he peeked out half his face, his Heat Vision followed him along the pillar.
Yang Jianhua and Shi Xiaoyan rolled to either side of the main control panel, their original footings instantly burned through.
When the attack subsided, Yan Shuangying leaned out from behind the grille and fired four shots in quick succession at the test subject's forehead and chest.
The test subject's skin hardens into bone armor before being hit, preventing the Negasonic Teenage Warhead from penetrating the surface.
Yan Shuangying's gaze remained fixed on the experimental subject's chest.
"The bone armor will thicken as it's attacked; continuing to hit the head will only recalibrate its defense."
"I forced it to change its tactics, watch carefully."
Before Yan Shuangying could even make a move, Chan Ka-kui, that reckless brute, couldn't wait any longer. "Watch this!"
He darted out from behind the cover, grabbed the thick rubber hose overhead used to deliver nutrient solution, and swung high into the air with the force of his sprint.
Using the centrifugal force of the swing, Chan Ka-kui kicked the test subject in the back of the head with both legs together!
"Old Six, are you crazy?!" Sing Sing exclaimed in shock.
The test subject didn't turn around at all.
Just as Chan Ka-kui was about to kick it, several bloody holes tore open in the flesh below its shoulder and back.
Five or six spiraling Bone Spears, like venomous snakes emerging from their holes, pierced towards Chan Ka-kui in mid-air!
"Fuck your mother!"
Ma Jun was closest, roared and charged into the attack line, using all his strength to block two of the Bone Spears that were aimed directly at Chan Ka-kui.
Pfft!
The sharp Bone Spear easily tore open the outer side of the Ma Jun's forearm.
The other Bone Spears, though deflected, still grazed Chan Ka-kui's thigh and right rib.
"You bunch of insects, you're making so much noise!"
Miss Sinister in mid-air frowned in disgust, and a mental shockwave shot straight at Shi Xiaoyan, who had just poked her head out.
Shi Xiaoyan let out a muffled groan, and two streams of blood flowed down her lips from her nose.
Xu Xi, who was standing nearby, pushed the person away, but she herself endured the remaining mental impact.
Bright red blood seeped from his ears, and he staggered back two steps, nearly falling to his knees.
Yan Shuangying kept his eyes fixed on the experimental subject, recalling the changes in the bone armor caused by the impact points.
He keenly noticed a detail:
Whenever the test subject's abilities change, the core on its chest will dim briefly at the same moment, and the red mark on Miss Sinister's forehead in mid-air will also dim for a fraction of a second.
Yan Shuangying raised his gun and pointed it at the experimental subject.
When the bone armor retracts, that's the last part of the body to close.
It shares a neural control circuit with the core in the chest.
As if confirming Yan Shuangying's judgment, the Bone Spear that had just pierced Chan Ka-kui's shoulder and back began to retract.
The bony skin also began to transform into a semi-liquid, flexible state, preparing for the next attack.
The gunshot rang out a microsecond before the transformation was complete.
The sixth strange tale of Yan Shuangying's rules: No matter what you're going to do next, Yan Shuangying will always be one step ahead of you.
Bang!
Bullets whistled through the air.
The test subject sensed the danger, twisted his right shoulder, and tried to block the shot with the thickest part of his body.
But the bullet made a slight turn in mid-air as it passed its rotating right shoulder, and went straight into the gap in the softening bone armor!
A burst of black blood erupted.
Sing Sing was stunned for a moment. "No way, Lao Yan, you've even studied gene alignment?"
"I know a little."
The Tenth Strange Tale of Yan Shuangying's Rules: Yan Shuangying always knows a little more than you.
Yan Shuangying's gun was still in aiming position.
Sing Sing quickly formed a finger gesture with both hands.
Open your Heavenly Eye!
The twelve completely different and violent energies within this experimental subject were all squeezed into this stitched-up body, and were distributed to various nerves entirely by the core in the chest.
Right on the left side of the third thoracic vertebra, there was a bullet that Ling Ling'er had fired!
"I knew it! You old hag, all that fuss was just a pot of raw rice in there!"
"Brothers! Old Yan has found the right place!"
Miss Sinister, suspended in mid-air, had a livid face and a bright red mark on her forehead.
Kill them all! Now!
The experimental subject's body continued to expand irrationally, and in just one second, its right arm transformed into a high-frequency vibrating bone blade.
The left arm transformed into a bio-plasma cannon barrel!
Miss Sinister wasn't idle either; two telekinetic chains appeared out of thin air, blocking Yang Jianhua and Shi Xiaoyan's escape routes on both sides.
At that moment, the bone blade capable of slicing through tanks was mercilessly slashing down towards the heads of the two men!
Shi Xiaoyan's oil-paper umbrella was reduced to just a few bare, intact ribs, offering no protection whatsoever.
Although Yang Jianhua's Hundred-Refined Soft Sword was flexible, it could not withstand the head-on slash.
At the critical moment.
A slender figure stood in front of the two, his eyes showing no fear.
Facing the high-frequency bone blade that was slashing down from above, Xu Xi did not back down and met it head-on at the relatively thicker parts on both sides of the bone blade.
The Great Shift of the Universe!
The experimental subject's terrifying slashing force was redirected to the ground by him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The ground beneath Xu Xi's feet emitted a series of popping sounds.
The gap in strength remains stark.
Although the high-frequency oscillating bone blade neutralized most of the downward force, its edges still mercilessly sliced open the edges of Xu Xi's palms.
Blood soaked his sleeves, but the bone blade stopped.
Xu Xi's usually gentle and reserved face was now filled with resolute determination.
The fatal bullet hole in the test subject's back was now exposed to Yan Shuangying's gun.
