Click.

The young man closed the door and locked it.

The eyes behind the lenses were extremely bright, and he quickly glanced around the room.

It finally fell on the middle-aged man who was the leader.

"Wang Wu, how is the situation of this mission? Is there any resistance or other abnormalities on the target?"

The middle-aged man known as "Wang Wu" immediately bowed and answered respectfully:

"Master Jia, we found the target you mentioned at Teahouse."

"At that time, he was talking to a very young man, and there were two boxes of cash on the table, as if he was conducting some kind of transaction."

"We pretended to be robbers and threatened him to hand over the money. The target himself did not resist, but the man he was talking to seemed to be Martial Artist, and suddenly stopped him."

"I am ashamed that I am no match for that man, so the test mission can only be interrupted."

His words were evasive and he deliberately concealed the huge amount of cash, not to mention the embarrassing process of being subdued by one move.

Just simply attribute Fang Cheng to a "kung fu master".

Black Ox and Mouse, who were standing aside, also had their heads lowered and their expressions were restrained, without any trace of resentment as before.

"Meeting a master? Even you are no match..."

The young man pushed up his glasses, his eyes lingered on the bruised and swollen faces of Black Ox and Mouse for a moment, and then he fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed slightly.

The whole person seemed to have changed from a lazy domestic cat to an alert cheetah in an instant.

Without any warning, he took a step back, and his figure floated behind the door like a ghost. With one eye close to the peephole, he quickly scanned the corridor outside the door.

After confirming that no one was there, he rushed to the window and opened a corner of the curtain.

His sharp eyes were like a falcon, carefully searching every corner of Street downstairs.

Throughout the entire operation, his techniques were skillful and his body was agile, just like an experienced agent.

It wasn't until he was sure there was no one following him that he breathed a sigh of relief and stood back in the center of the room.

The eyes behind the lenses flickered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Wang Wu cautiously said:

"Master Jia, our brothers have completed four tasks for you. Where is the medicine you promised to give us?"

As he spoke, he pointed at the two men behind him, one fat and one thin.

"Black Ox and Mouse, they have been injected with medicine once before, and their recent observation performance has been very good."

"Is "Pioneer Talent Selection Program" eligible to join your organization now?"

Upon hearing this, Black Ox and Mouse immediately raised their chests and raised their heads, their eyes filled with unabashed anticipation.

The young man pondered for a moment, seeming to weigh the pros and cons.

Finally, he nodded and took out a portable medicine box from Canvas Bag behind his back.

There was a soft "click" sound and the box was opened.

It was covered with black Velvet, and next to a brand-new syringe, five tubes containing light Blue Liquid injections were lying quietly.

The liquid shone with faint fluorescent light in the dim light, as if it contained some mysterious magic power.

Wang Wu swallowed subconsciously, and his eyes couldn't help but heat up.

Black Ox and Mouse's breathing suddenly became heavy, and their eyes were fixed on several tubes of liquid.

That kind of greed and desire was even a hundred times stronger than when they saw the two boxes of banknotes at Teahouse.

Because, this is "Pioneer's Blood"!

It took Noah Organization decades to successfully develop a magical medicine with Supernatural magic power.

According to outside legend, it can enable a helpless person to transform into Superman in a short period of time.

How could they not be excited about something like this that can change Fate?

Especially Black Ox and Mouse, they have already witnessed the magical effect of this medicine with their own eyes.

The reason why their boss became so powerful was because of its effect, which allowed his strength to increase several times.

Seeing the three people acting like this, the young man's mouth curved:

"This is a new medicine for you."

"Wang Wu, you take three copies, Black Ox, Mouse, you take one each."

With that said, he handed over the medicine box.

Wang Wu's face flashed with joy and he immediately took it.

His fingers gently rubbed the cold Glass tube, as if he were touching a rare treasure.

Black Ox and Mouse also hurriedly came over, staring at the potion, scratching their ears and cheeks, feeling itchy.

Seeing them look like drug addicts, the young man smiled and said:

"After this injection, if you two have no severe adverse reactions during the two-week observation period, I can make the decision and formally include you in the "Pioneer Talent Selection Program."

"Thank you Master Jia! Thank you Master Jia!"

When Black Ox and Mouse heard this, they were overjoyed and nodded and bowed.

Wang Wu also thanked his brothers and handed the two potions to them respectively.

The two of them held it carefully in their hands as if they had found a treasure.

The young man's eyes flickered slightly, and when he saw the three of them just holding the potions and caressing them lovingly, he spoke again:

"Why don't you try it now?"

Mouse swallowed and seemed to want to do this, but had some scruples:

"Master Jia, didn't you say that this medicine has serious side effects? You need to adjust your condition before injection and prepare enough nutritional supplements."

"Yes."

Black Ox also echoed angrily, looking like he was still frightened:

"After the last injection, my neck was swollen for several days. My body was itchy and I had a lot of red rashes."

The young man still had a gentle smile on his face:

"Don't worry, this drug has been improved many times by the organization Laboratory and has been upgraded to version 2.0. Its safety and tolerability have been greatly improved."

"You can try it now. I'll take some preliminary experimental records by the way."

As he spoke, he also took out a notebook and a pen from Canvas Bag.

When Black Ox and Mouse heard this, their eyes suddenly shone, and there was no hesitation.

Wang Wu moved his lips, wanting to say something.

But looking at the excitement of the two brothers, they didn't stop them in the end.

Black Ox took the lead and eagerly opened the syringe package, inserted the needle into the rubber stopper of the medicine, and drew out the entire tube of light blue liquid.

Then, he raised his head, pointed the needle at his neck, plunged it in, and quickly pushed all the liquid into his body.

Mouse followed closely and completed the injection of medicine just as quickly.

The young man watched the two men move, then turned his head and looked at Wang Wu, who was motionless at the side:

"Why don't you inject?"

Wang Wu quickly bowed and answered:

"Master Jia, I just fought with that man at Teahouse, and my body suffered some internal injuries. When I go back and adjust my condition, it won't be too late for another injection."

"That's fine."

The young man nodded and did not pursue further.

His eyes returned to Black Ox and Mouse who had completed the injection.

The pen in his hand was suspended above the notebook, as if he was preparing to record data.

There was a hint of inexplicable expectation in his eyes.

It was quiet inside.

Outside the window, the sunset has sunk into the horizon.

The light is getting dimmer, making this dilapidated house look even more gloomy.

Wang Wu stood aside, vaguely feeling that the atmosphere seemed a bit depressing.

A few minutes later.

"Uh..."

Mouse suddenly frowned and let out a painful groan.

The young man's eyes suddenly lit up behind his lenses, and he immediately asked:

"What's wrong? Do you feel anything special?"

"This medicine is weird..."

Mouse's face turned red, and large beads of sweat oozed from his forehead and slid down his cheeks.

"I feel... so hot! So itchy!"

He kept raising his hands to wipe his sweat, his movements became more and more rapid, and he even began to scratch his neck.

"Me too!"

Black Ox tore off his T-shirt, revealing his fat belly.

At the same time, he was panting heavily and his tongue stuck out like a dog:

"Did you not turn on Air Conditioner... It's so hot! So hot! I can't stand it..."

He seemed to be dizzy due to a high fever and his speech became incoherent.

Wang Wu saw this, his face changed, and he asked nervously:

"Master Jia, what's going on? The side effects of this medicine are so strong?"

The young man seemed unusually calm and spoke calmly:

"No problem, just wait and see."

However, the situation shows no signs of easing.

Instead, it became more and more severe as time went by.

The skin of both of them turned into the shape of cooked shrimp, red and swollen.

Green veins were crawling under the skin like earthworms, and hot white smoke began to emit from the whole body.

Even the muscles began to swell abnormally, making the clothes on his body tighter and tighter.

Shila! Shila!

The clothes couldn't bear the bulging body and eventually burst.

"It hurts... it hurts so much!"

Mouse's facial features were distorted, and he lowered his head blankly, looking at his body, his eyes full of horror and confusion.

"I... I seem to have grown taller? Also gained weight?"

At this moment, his body continued to expand, and his skin turned from blood red to dark purple.

Cracks began to appear on the surface, like a dry riverbed.

Immediately afterwards, the muscle fibers were torn everywhere, exposing the dense white bones.

"Ah--"

There was a shrill scream, followed by a "click" sound, and his left leg was broken at a weird angle.

Mouse could no longer stand steadily and fell heavily to the ground, rolling and wailing like a dying beast.

On the other side, Black Ox is still barely holding on.

His figure has also grown larger, and his waistline has become as thick as a bucket.

"It feels so uncomfortable... my body... seems like it's going to explode!"

He roared in pain.

The eyeballs were completely filled with bloodshot eyes, turned into a frightening red color, and were constantly protruding outwards, as if they would be squeezed out of the eye sockets at any time.

"Boss... help me... I... why can't I see?"

Wang Wu was horrified to see it and backed away repeatedly until his back was against the cold wall.

Pointing at the two men who had undergone horrific changes, he looked at the culprit who caused the accident:

"What... what's going on?"

"Master Jia, didn't you say that this medicine has been improved and is very safe with very few side effects?!"

The young man slowly put down the notebook in his hand and pushed up his glasses.

The lenses reflected the last bit of light outside the window, making the smile on his face look extremely weird.

"I said, do you believe it?"

"You?!"

Wang Wu was shocked and angry, his questioning words were stuck in his throat, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

At this moment, the strong Black Ox finally couldn't hold on any longer.

He let out a roar that didn't sound like a human voice, his body stiffened suddenly, and then he collapsed.

The two of them were twitching in pain on the ground, their struggles became smaller and smaller, and finally they gradually became silent.

Deathly silence returned to the house.

There was only a strong smell of blood and burnt smell filling the air.

The young man stepped forward, stretched out his fingers, and probed the breath and Carotid Artery of the two corpses.

"Did you still fail..."

He murmured to himself, then squatted down, took out his notebook, and began to check and record carefully.

Opening Black Ox's eyelids, observing the dilated pupils, the tip of the pen wrote "swish" on the paper.

Suddenly, a fierce wind sounded from behind him!

The young man reacted very quickly, without looking back, and jerked his body to the side.

However, the Pistol he had inserted into his back belt had been taken away by a big hand.

"Don't move!"

A roar sounded.

The young man turned around and saw Wang Wu holding a gun in both hands, with the black muzzle pointed at his head.

"Asshole!"

Wang Wu's eyes were red and he looked like a crazy tiger. "You know clearly that this medicine is poisonous, but you still deliberately harm us!"

The young man snorted softly and faced the gun with no fear on his face:

"If I were you, I would put down Pistol and cooperate with me to complete this drug test record."

"If you are lucky enough to survive the effects of the medicine, you may have the opportunity to join our organization and become a formal cadre in the future."

"Besides, they are just two gangsters. If they die, they will die. What's the pity..."

"Fuck you! How dare you lie to me!"

Wang Wu was completely angered and pressed the trigger without hesitation.

Bang!

The fire burst out, Gunfire deafening.

The moment Wang Wu pulled the trigger, the young man's body suddenly dwarfed, and Exert Force stood at his feet.

The whole person did not retreat but advanced, rushing forward like an arrow from a string!

At some point, a dazzling cold light appeared in his hand.

Whoosh--

The bullet hit an afterimage.

"Ah!"

Almost at the same time, Wang Wu let out a cry of pain and staggered back.

I saw that his right hand holding the gun, together with the Pistol, was cut off at the wrist and fell to the ground.

"You're too slow."

The young man smiled softly, and suddenly there was a sharp Military Dagger in his hand.

He kept walking, his figure was like lightning, and he was approaching Wang Wu again in an instant.

Wang Wu endured the severe pain, with a cruel look in his eyes, clenched his fist with his remaining left hand, and smashed it hard.

I want to fight to the death!

The cold light flashed again.

The two passed by each other.

Wang Wu's movements stopped abruptly.

His eyes widened and he made a "ho ho" sound in his throat.

It seemed like he wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.

A subtle line of blood slowly appeared on his neck, then slowly expanded and spread.

Plop.

His head rolled off his neck and rolled to the corner, with an expression of shock, anger and unwillingness still on his face.

The young man shook off the blood beads on Dagger and inserted it back into the Leather scabbard at his waist.

Then he looked at the dead head and said softly:

"Isn't it enough to be obedient? Why do you have to force me to do something to know that the rules of the organization cannot be violated?"

After saying that, he turned to look at the two corpses on the ground that were no longer human and sighed.

"I wanted to take advantage of you a few more times. Since I'm so eager to seek death, I might as well become a qualified drug tester and make my final contribution to the organization. This will save me the trouble."

He took out his notebook again and squatted down to continue recording.

He reached out to flip the corpse's eyelids, carefully observing the changes in the pupils, while writing something in his notebook.

"April 3, Experimental Subject codenames: Black Ox, Mouse. Observer: Jia Liang."

"Experimental Subject injected enhanced version"Pioneer's Blood"2.0, severe rejection occurred within five minutes..."

After writing the last line, the young man named Jia Liang stood up and shook his head:

"The effect of the medicine is still so overbearing. Until the success rate is greatly improved, even I dare not use it easily."

As a Senior Cadre of Noah Organization, one of his main tasks is to observe the Unofficial Experimental Subject injected with medicine and record detailed data.

However, due to recent internal turmoil within the organization, the situation was complicated, and he had no choice but to take on another task.

Jia Liang put the record book back into Canvas Bag, took out another Black Notebook, and opened it casually.

There are many names densely recorded on it.

In one line, the name "Xiao Jianren" of Xiaosa appears.

The marked identity is the godson of Red Tiger Gang Leader Chen Chen.
