Chapter 221 Big Shopping Spree! Midnight Murder!
Blood Clan!
Since the Assimilation War broke out, the Void Zerg gave birth to a Zerg King.
Even on the Subspace Demon side, powerful existences like Demon Lords appeared.
But the Blood Clan seemed to have vanished, with no news of them whatsoever.
As one of the few Calamity-level existences during the Assimilation War, it was impossible for the Blood Clan to remain so silent; they must be secretly plotting an even grander scheme.
Lu Jin's gaze turned towards the Hall of Destiny. If the Blood Clan's most powerful ability was transformation, then a Blood Clan True Ancestor could transform other beings into their Dependents, thereby gaining control over them.
Currently, the Hall of Destiny gathered proxies from many powerful factions.
If the Blood Clan attacked here and transformed all of them into Blood Clan, it could be said that the Blood Clan would instantly gain control over most of the factions.
Thinking of this, Lu Jin frowned deeply.
"Uncle Qin Lie, I already know about this matter."
"But I cannot leave here right now."
Hearing this, Qin Lie, on the other side, seemed to have anticipated this outcome.
He placed his hand on Lu Jin's shoulder.
Even Qin Lie had never imagined that this young man before him could reach his current position.
Now, Qin Lie knew Lu Jin had his own reasons, and could only sigh.
"Kid, I know you have your reasons for staying."
"I've delivered the message; I'll leave first."
"If one day you really can't make it, come to Qingyang Star and find me."
With that, Qin Lie turned and left.
Lu Jin looked at the Qingyang Star compass Qin Lie had given him and smiled faintly.
Putting away the Qingyang Star compass, Lu Jin returned to his room.
In his room, Old Fifth Huang, Eve, and Cui Yuxin had already been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Lu Jin return, Eve and the others seemed to have seen a savior.
"You're finally back! You wouldn't believe how many factions want to join our Cosmic Alliance now."
"Just the Planet Lord factions wanting to join our Cosmic Alliance number over a thousand."
"But don't worry, we've already screened them, and the list we have now is full of promising candidates."
It must be said that the efficiency of Eve and Cui Yuxin was beyond reproach.
They had compiled the list of all potential members in the short interval while Lu Jin was talking with Qin Lie.
Meanwhile, Old Fifth Huang next to them was looking up at the ceiling, appearing completely idle.
As he had said before, he had handed over all permissions to Lu Jin, and he himself only needed to provide appropriate assistance from the side.
Lu Jin looked at the people in the room and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
When he sat on the sofa, he looked at Cui Yuxin beside him.
"Cui Yuxin, put the list aside for now; I have a more important task here."
"Your Gem Family, as a commercial organization, certainly has many channels for purchasing materials, right?"
"I have a list here. Immediately use all available permissions to purchase all these items."
Saying that, Lu Jin sent the item list to everyone's personal terminals.
When everyone saw the items on it, they couldn't help but look confused.
Red Sun Peach Wood, Scarlet Cinnabar, Beiluo Chicken Blood, Compound #34 Flame... these items were disorganized, but fortunately, they were not rare; in fact, they were quite common.
And on Planet Zero, where the company headquarters was located, purchasing these items was extremely easy.
They didn't even need to exert much effort; they just needed to hand over the list, and a specialized attendant could be arranged to procure them.
Before long, all the items Lu Jin needed were delivered to the room.
The living room of the room was directly filled with various materials.
Old Fifth Huang struggled to find a place to step among the many materials and couldn't help but look at Lu Jin.
"What are you doing?"
"Making some self-defense items."
Self-defense items?
Before Mermaid Eve and the others could react, Lu Jin looked at Cui Yuxin and the others again.
"Tonight, don't go back."
Hmm?
These words fell into the ears of Eve and Cui Yuxin, and both couldn't help but look at Yin Yue.
Old Fifth Huang next to them was stunned for a moment, then pointed at himself.
"Me too?"
"If you're not afraid of being assassinated, you can go back."
Assassination?
Old Fifth Huang's brow furrowed slightly. This was Planet Zero, where the company headquarters was located.
And the Hall of Destiny was heavily guarded; how could an assassination occur?
But coming from Lu Jin's mouth, everyone believed it a little.
"Who wants to kill us?"
"I don't know for now, but I personally suspect it's the Blood Clan."
"So, the materials you're looking for are to deal with the Blood Clan's assassination?"
"That's right."
Everyone exchanged glances, and finally, Old Fifth Huang spoke up.
"I have no problem."
Since Old Fifth Huang said he had no problem, Eve and Cui Yuxin naturally thought it was fine.
Moreover, gathering together would allow them to better look out for each other.
There were many other rooms inside this room, so even if they lived together, it wouldn't feel crowded at all.
Eve actively went to Yin Yue's side and said playfully, "Tonight, our safety is entrusted to you."
"With me here, everyone can rest assured."
At this moment, Yin Yue also gripped her weapon tightly, assuring everyone.
Night gradually fell, but the entire Hall of Destiny showed no signs of quieting down.
After all, not all Star Sea races needed rest.
With the enhancement of psionics, Lu Jin could maintain a long period of sleeplessness.
After Lu Jin finished making the last item, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
He hoped the target of this attack on the Hall of Destiny was the Blood Clan.
Otherwise, his items would be useless.
Lu Jin leaned on the sofa, wanting to rest for a bit.
But before he could close his eyes, a loud commotion came from outside.
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Immediately proceed to Room S001!"
"Damn it! How could something like this happen? This year's year-end bonus is definitely gone!"
"Still thinking about the year-end bonus? If we don't handle this well, we're all doomed!"
"Everyone, move faster!"
Hearing the commotion, Lu Jin opened his door.
He saw a large number of soldiers in power armor running swiftly down the corridor.
One of the soldiers, upon seeing Lu Jin open his door, immediately came before him.
"My apologies. Due to an emergency in the Hall of Destiny, we've intruded."
"If we've disturbed your rest, please report it to the hotel service software, and we will have someone specifically compensate you for your losses."
It was clear that this soldier was a full-time employee of the company, and only full-time employees would have the regulations memorized so well.
But Lu Jin's mind wasn't on the so-called compensation; he was more interested in understanding what exactly had happened.
+++
Chapter 222 Someone's Dead! Personality Crystal!
"What happened here?"
Without much pleasantry, Lu Jin directly asked the other party.
Seeing that the soldier opposite him was still hesitant, Lu Jin decisively showed his identification.
sixth seat, Cosmic Alliance Leader, Lu Jin.
When they saw Lu Jin's identification, the soldiers opposite were visibly shocked.
The Cosmic Alliance Leader, who was rumored to have stirred up trouble at the meeting, was actually such a young Blue Star Human.
After regaining his senses, the soldier hesitated for a moment, then told Lu Jin the information he knew.
"The Holy Spirit Empire's envoy was attacked!"
What?
Upon hearing this news, even Lu Jin couldn't help but frown slightly.
Someone from the Holy Spirit Empire was attacked?
He had originally thought that those Blood Clan would cut in from the weakest link.
But he didn't expect that the first to have an accident was actually the strongest Holy Spirit Empire?
Thinking of this, Lu Jin couldn't sit still and went directly to the scene of the incident.
At this moment, the entire room was already surrounded tightly.
Jeffebu stood in the room, looking at the traces on the ground, his expression becoming extremely serious.
Just now, he received a message from the Holy Spirit Empire.
Without their knowledge, the spokesperson sent by the Holy Spirit Empire was actually assassinated.
When Jeffebu received this news, he could hardly believe it.
Someone actually dared to act under the nose of their company, and the target was the spokesperson of the Holy Spirit Empire.
If it weren't for the Holy Spirit Empire's reminder, they might still have been kept in the dark.
At this time, Lu Jin successfully entered the crime scene through his identity.
His gaze quickly swept across the room.
There were no signs of a struggle in the room, and his gaze fell on the ground.
One could clearly see a scorched mark left by an energy body.
This was the death mark caused by the energy dissipation of the Holy Spirit Empire person before his death.
Lu Jin continued to survey the surroundings, wanting to find all suspicious locations.
Upon seeing Lu Jin arrive, Jeffebu immediately stepped forward and asked.
"Mr. Lu Jin, have you found any clues?"
Facing Jeffebu's question, Lu Jin shook his head.
But just then, another soldier rushed in.
"Bad news, the guest in Room C294 is also dead!"
What?
Someone else was assassinated?
At this, even Jeffebu became a little unsettled.
Who exactly is it?
But before he could think carefully, another soldier rushed in.
"Bad news, the guest in Room B297 is dead!"
"Report! The guest in Room A765 is missing!"
"New situation! Unidentified individuals found in Sector E of the Hall of Destiny!"
The death of the Holy Spirit Empire's spokesperson seemed to trigger a chain reaction.
For a time, bad news came one after another from various parts of the Hall of Destiny.
Even Jeffebu, being a Cyberian, felt his body become even colder at this moment.
It was obvious that the Hall of Destiny had been targeted, and this group of people was extremely powerful.
If this continued, then their Interstellar Infinite Company might as well not hold any meetings.
This single malicious incident would be enough to ruin the Interstellar Infinite Company's reputation.
As a commercial organization, the most important thing is its credit value.
Once the credit value is cleared, their strength will be greatly reduced!
At this moment, Jeffebu could no longer sit idly by.
He pulled out a storage box from his arms, and when he opened it, a large number of crystal cores of various colors were displayed inside.
Jeffebu took out a scarlet crystal core from it and decisively inserted the crystal core into his personality storage space.
In an instant, Jeffebu's eyes became extremely scarlet, and his entire mechanical body seemed to undergo earth-shattering changes.
The surrounding soldiers, seeing this, couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"It's the War Crystal Core! It is rumored that Mr. Jeffebu possesses multiple personality crystal cores, but he usually uses the Business Crystal Core to handle company business."
"Now that he has switched to the War Crystal Core, it means that Mr. Jeffebu is really going to get serious."
Lu Jin, who was nearby, was also a little curious.
Logically speaking, in an organization like Star Sea Infinite Company.
To be able to become a member of the board of directors means that Jeffebu also has extraordinary talent.
But during their brief contact, all he saw was Jeffebu's side as a businessman.
If he only had this much ability, he probably wouldn't be enough to become a member of the board of directors.
Now he could finally see another side of Jeffebu.
Jeffebu, after loading the War Crystal Core, his eyes became different.
"Squad A2, listen to my command, immediately proceed to Sector E to assist the security team in apprehending the suspects."
"Squad B6, Squad B7, proceed to Sector S to first calm down our S-class guests."
"I will contact the heavy security team to immediately blockade the Hall of Destiny."
"No! Blockade the entire core area, mobilize the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad!"
With that, Jeffebu opened the storage space on his arm.
In a flash, two revolvers appeared in his hands.
The revolvers were loaded with several powerful armor-piercing explosive bullets!
At this moment, the businessman-like Jeffebu changed his usual demeanor, becoming like a true hardened criminal.
Seeing Jeffebu's transformation, Lu Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The Cyberian's personality crystal core is indeed a magical thing.
Jeffebu, who had switched to war mode, came to Lu Jin's side, he glanced at Lu Jin, then gestured to the soldier next to him.
"Send this guest back to his room first. Please stay in your room until the culprit is investigated."
Lu Jin waved his hand, signaling the soldier not to rush him.
After returning to his room, Eve and Cui Yuxin were also woken up.
The two of them stood in the living room, asking Lu Jin what had happened outside.
Lu Jin pointed to the window, through which they could see the central public area of the Hall of Destiny.
At this moment, in the central public area, many guests were forcibly escorted back to their rooms by soldiers.
Immediately after, a large number of soldiers in armed combat suits appeared in the public area.
They moved back and forth, exchanging information, and began to apprehend the so-called suspects in the Hall of Destiny.
After observing the situation in the public area, Eve looked at Lu Jin.
"I heard someone has already been killed?"
"That's right, the Holy Spirit Empire's spokesperson is dead, and other guests have also been killed to varying degrees."
What?
The Holy Spirit Empire's spokesperson is dead?
This news shocked Eve and Cui Yuxin greatly.
During the day, they had also seen the Holy Spirit Empire's spokesperson, although his energy level was only that of a Fourth-Level Psionicist.
But he represented the Holy Spirit Empire, and someone actually dared to provoke the Holy Spirit Empire?
"The most crucial thing is that I examined the crime scene, and there were no signs of a struggle."
"If someone else really killed him, then the opponent's strength must be above that of a Sixth-Level Psion!"
+++
Chapter 223 Taking the Initiative! Competition Between Vampires!
After listening to Lu Jin's analysis, Eve and Cui Yuxin's expressions both became incredibly solemn.
One must know, a Level 6 Psionicist is not someone ordinary people can deal with.
However, in this current situation, even if they wanted to leave, it would be difficult.
After switching his personality core, Jeffebu decisively chose to lock down all the rooms.
Now, outside their room, there was a squad of fully armed corporate soldiers standing guard.
These corporate soldiers were there, firstly, to prevent guests from running around, and secondly, to prevent the murderer from striking again.
But could this truly stop the murderer?
Just then, Silver Moon's nose twitched slightly; she smelled an unusual scent.
It was the smell of blood!
Silver Moon instantly became alert. She drew her weapon and looked towards the door.
At that moment, the door clicked open.
After the door opened, an unfamiliar figure appeared in everyone's sight.
"Those idiots from the company, do they really think their soldiers can stop us?"
Before the words finished, Lu Jin decisively made his move.
With a wave of his hand, psionic energy erupted, and several pre-prepared sharp blades shot straight towards the figure in front of him.
The opponent's gaze fell on the incoming blades, and her crimson eyes analyzed the composition of the blades in just a moment.
"Heh, weapons that aren't even alloys, do you think they can harm me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the opponent immediately noticed the unusual scent on the blades.
Her expression changed, and she instantly dodged the blades' attack.
But clearly, Lu Jin had no intention of letting her go.
As psionic energy was mobilized, a large number of red threads immediately appeared around the room.
The red threads instantly wrapped around the opponent's body.
Though they were extremely thin red threads, they directly bound the opponent in place.
It was at this moment that Cui Yuxin and Eve realized that the figure who had suddenly burst in was actually a delicate young girl.
The girl struggled, trying to break free from the red threads on her body, but she found that her strength was suppressed.
"What in the world is this?!"
"My strength is suppressed; these are definitely not ordinary red threads!"
These were indeed no ordinary red threads!
The red threads were originally made of nano-grade material, and after Lu Jin's processing, they became as they were now.
Of course, if these red threads were used against an ordinary Psionicist, the opponent could easily tear them apart with force.
But now, the opponent was firmly suppressed by the red threads, which meant she could only be one thing.
A Blood Clan member!
"Be careful, this guy is a Dependent of the Blood Clan."
"The soldiers at the door have probably already been turned into Blood Servants by her."
"You two, keep your distance; who knows what other tricks this guy has up her sleeve."
Hearing Lu Jin's words, Eve and Cui Yuxin immediately heightened their vigilance.
A hint of resentment appeared in Cui Yuxin's eyes; it was the emergence of the Blood Clan that had brought the Brilliant Galaxy to the brink of collapse.
Unexpectedly, she had encountered the Blood Clan again today.
The Blood Clan's strength seemed to have grown even stronger!
Silver Moon stepped forward, drawing her weapon, a cold glint flashing.
"Captain, should I kill her directly?"
"Wait a moment, use the potion I formulated. The potion can destroy the Blood Clan's cellular structure and completely eliminate them."
Saying this, Lu Jin handed a bottle of potion to Silver Moon.
Silver Moon took the potion and gradually approached the Blood Clan girl in front of her.
The Blood Clan girl's gaze fell on the potion; at this moment, she actually felt a fear originating from the depths of her bloodline.
The contents of this potion bottle were absolutely a deadly poison for the Blood Clan!
She immediately began to struggle, and a layer of mist even appeared in her eyes.
"Wait, I'm not a bad person!"
"Bad people don't say they're good people either."
Seeing the other party getting closer and closer, the Blood Clan girl quickly began to struggle.
But no matter how much she struggled, how could she break free from the trap tools meticulously set by Lu Jin?
And just then, a voice came from the Blood Clan girl's body.
"Lu Jin, this child was sent by me to protect you."
This voice... Is it Qin Mowu?
How does Qin Mowu know the Blood Clan?
This Blood Clan girl in front of him, she was sent by Qin Mowu to protect him?
How did she get involved with the Blood Clan?
Lu Jin frowned, and although he had a myriad of questions in his heart, he still released the other party.
The Blood Clan girl slumped to the ground, her eyes filled with fear as she looked at Lu Jin.
Now, she no longer had her previous arrogant demeanor; instead, she resembled a pitiful little kitten.
Immediately after, she pulled out a communication device from her pocket, and Qin Mowu's voice came through again.
"I'm very sorry, I can't meet you directly right now."
"I'm sure you've guessed it; I've already been turned into a Blood Clan member."
"I know you hate the Blood Clan, but I'm also looking for a way to turn back."
"If one day I truly can't turn back into a human, I will ask you to kill me with your own hands."
"This child is named Jiaer. She is a child I took in. She was on the verge of death from a serious illness, and with her consent, I transformed her into a Blood Clan member."
Lu Jin's gaze fell on the Blood Clan girl in front of him.
Under Lu Jin's gaze, the Blood Clan girl, Jiaer, quickly curled up to the side.
And then, Lu Jin once again focused his gaze on the communication device in front of him.
"This attack was orchestrated by a Blood Clan True Ancestor. His plan is to transform the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny into his puppet."
"Of course, I also have my plan. My target is this Blood Clan True Ancestor."
"The reason I'm telling you this is because, for now, our goals are the same. Perhaps we can cooperate."
"The other party has probably already targeted you. I left Jiaer by your side to prevent them from attacking you."
"However, it seems my worries were superfluous."
On the other side of the communication device, Qin Mowu held the device, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly upwards.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jin had grown to such an extent; he truly was the man she had her eyes on.
However, after glancing at her pale skin, the smile on Qin Mowu's face gradually disappeared.
And in the distant sky, several armed spacecraft landed above the Hall of Destiny.
The spacecraft doors opened, and several armed personnel in power armor jumped down without a word.
Boom!
Accompanied by a cloud of dust, the armed personnel landed on the ground.
"The Anti-Terror Mobile Squad has arrived at the target site. Commencing mission now!"
"Received!"
The corporate armed personnel quickly entered the Hall of Destiny. The surrounding corporate soldiers couldn't help but swallow hard as they saw the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members arrive.
This incident had probably far exceeded their expectations.
The Anti-Terror Mobile Squad—that was the strongest armed security team at the company headquarters!
+++
Chapter 224 Blood Transformation! Suppression and Law Enforcement!
"Everyone, move aside!"
As soon as the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members entered the public area, they initiated a series of actions.
Numerous unknown instruments and devices were placed in various corners of the public area.
Lu Jin, standing by the window, narrowed his eyes as he watched the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad's actions.
Even he had heard of the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad's reputation.
It was a security team built by the company with significant investment, and the Anti-Terror V Power Armor they wore alone cost tens of millions of credit points per suit.
In addition, the power armor was equipped with a large number of suppression tools, capable of quickly responding to various situations.
Crucially, none of these Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members were Psionicists.
This was because the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad's equipment included many special suppression devices specifically designed for Psionicists.
Although these individuals were not Psionicists, under the company's drug modification, even without their power armor, their combat power far exceeded that of ordinary people.
As expected, one Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member quickly located the suspect's hiding place after just a brief scan.
"Reporting to the captain, we have found the suspect's movement trajectory!"
A fluorescent trail appeared before all the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members.
This was a trail of clues composed of various DNA information, which only the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad's precision equipment could reveal.
After confirming the suspect's movement path, the next step was to implement an arrest strategy.
The Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members immediately changed their equipment: 100,000-volt suppression tasers, psionic anesthetics, and finally, armor-piercing energy guns!
With everything ready, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members quickly began their operation.
The guests in the Hall of Destiny, seeing the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad's efficient actions, couldn't help but praise them repeatedly.
"Is this the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad that the company spent a fortune to build? Their efficiency is truly remarkable!"
"It looks like this farce should be resolved very quickly."
"After all, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad has been dispatched. If they can't solve the problem even at this level, then the company is too useless."
"Don't worry, that's the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad; they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers."
The guests' words reached the ears of the company's soldiers from all directions.
While some soldiers showed no change on the surface, they felt particularly uncomfortable internally.
In their opinion, these Anti-Terror Mobile Squad guys were just luckier than them.
With so many resources piled on them, even a pig could take flight.
In a place like the company, merely working hard is not enough to get ahead.
"That's enough. From beginning to end, we've been doing all the dirty and tiring work, but in the end, the credit goes to those Anti-Terror Mobile Squad guys."
"Shh, just do our job. What's the point of complaining now?"
"There are plenty of such things in the company. You've been with the company for so many years, aren't you used to it yet?"
"Sometimes, the only difference between us and those guys is an opportunity. Just work hard; you don't want your bonus deducted, do you?"
Several company soldiers conversed in low voices, their words filled with unwillingness, but at this point, they could only resign themselves to their fate.
Just then, the figures of several other company soldiers appeared in their sight.
Seeing these company soldiers walking towards them, these few, though suspicious, did not enter a state of alert.
"Hey, which squad are you from?"
Before he finished speaking, the company soldiers opposite decisively rushed over.
Before they could react, those company soldiers extended a syringe from their hands.
Pfft... The syringe directly pierced through the power armor's protection in the most vulnerable area.
The liquid inside was injected directly into the company soldier's body.
The ambushed company soldier pushed the opponent away, and after retreating a few steps, only felt an extreme chill within his body.
"You... who exactly are you?!"
Before he finished speaking, a flood of memories surged into their minds.
When the company soldiers had fully processed all the memories, they looked at their hands in disbelief.
They had been turned into blood kin?
And the company soldiers opposite were clearly also converted blood kin.
"Brothers, I'm sorry."
"Now we are all blood kin, still good brothers."
"You should have all received the memories in the blood, right?"
Saying this, the company soldiers opposite again took out several syringes filled with blood.
"These syringes have all been professionally processed, and the needles are made of nano-alloy."
"Your next task is simply to use these agents to convert others into blood kin."
"Of course, it would be even better if you could convert an Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member."
But before their transaction could be completed, the voices of the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members sounded behind them.
The gaze of one Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member fell on the blood kin potion.
With a click, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member pulled out a 100,000-volt suppression taser.
"Reporting to the captain, I've found suspicious company members here, suspected of treason."
"Suppress them immediately."
"Understood!"
The Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member disengaged the taser's safety, and the taser immediately erupted in a series of electric arcs.
The color of the power armor worn by the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member gradually began to change.
Seeing this scene, the company members who had been turned into blood kin immediately felt a chill down their spines.
"Run!"
Before he finished speaking, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member directly gave a thumbs up.
"Requesting authorization, shut down target power armor!"
The company soldiers who were about to escape found their power armor immediately ceased to function.
The power armor, originally equipped to protect them, instantly became a prison trapping them.
Seeing this, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad member directly raised the taser in his hand.
Amidst screams, Lu Jin's gaze in the room fell upon the blood kin girl, Jiaer.
Jiaer was curled up on the sofa, looking timid and helpless.
Her gaze never left Lu Jin, her eyes filled with fear.
In her opinion, this man before her was simply the bane of blood kin.
His understanding of blood kin was so profound that even she, a blood kin, felt inferior.
Among the numerous items in the room, she didn't even know which ones could restrain their blood kin actions.
Therefore, in her view, this room was no different from a prison filled with torture instruments.
"Wuwuwu, Captain, I want to go home."
Just then, Lu Jin spoke again.
"Now the entire Hall of Destiny is controlled by the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad. If the other party wants to act, how can they commit a crime right under the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad's nose?"
"Relying on your blood kin's blood assimilation ability? These little tricks might not be enough for the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad."
+++
Chapter 225 Blood Mist Eruption! A Feint Attack!
"If you ask me, the other party definitely has another move up their sleeve."
Even Eve and Cui Yuxin saw through it.
What happened in the Hall of Destiny seemed grand, but its impact on the company was minimal.
Next, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad only needed to complete the suppression work.
After that, if the company promised some benefits, the impact of this incident would be minimized.
Lu Jin glanced at the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members outside the window, pulled the curtains shut, and couldn't help but stroke his chin.
Just as Cui Yuxin and the others said, the other party must have another move.
Ding!
Just then, Lu Jin's personal terminal lit up.
It was a message from Yu Tiancang!
At the same time, Eve's and Cui Yuxin's personal terminals also lit up.
Opening their personal terminals, everyone received a message.
The planetary defense system of Planet Zero had suddenly activated!
The moment they saw this message, Lu Jin and Cui Yuxin recalled past events.
Could it be that those Blood Clan intended to use the same old trick?
And just as Lu Jin and the others had predicted, the moment the planetary defense system activated, large amounts of blood mist suddenly erupted from various locations across Planet Zero.
The blood mist came with formidable force; its power was simply incomparable to the blood mist that had erupted in the Brilliant Galaxy before!
In less than ten minutes, Lu Jin saw a large amount of blood mist permeate the interior of the Hall of Destiny.
Seeing this sudden appearance of blood mist, the company's soldiers were all somewhat at a loss.
Meanwhile, the Blood Clan hidden within the company, upon seeing the blood mist, quickly began to act.
Bang!
One of the doors was kicked open.
The guests inside the room didn't even have time to react before they were directly injected with Blood Clan serum.
Immediately after, the blood mist continued to spread, and people in the lower-level rooms had already begun to be transformed into Blood Servants.
The hotel's service staff were numerous, and they naturally became the primary targets for transformation into Blood Servants.
As more and more Blood Servants appeared, the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad members in the hotel were also caught off guard by the sudden change.
"What's going on? What the hell is this blood mist?"
"Everyone, be careful! Do not inhale this blood mist. The composition of this blood mist is highly likely the same as the serum we confiscated."
"Captain, all those who inhaled the blood mist have been transformed into monsters of varying degrees."
"Listen to my command: for targets on the guest list, use stun guns to suppress them."
"If they are not on the guest list, kill them on sight!"
The members of the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad were not to be trifled with.
In the current chaotic situation, all they could do was complete their mission as much as possible while protecting themselves.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
For a moment, a series of gunshots echoed throughout the Hall of Destiny.
Not only the entire Hall of Destiny, but the entire Planet Zero was enveloped by blood mist at this moment.
And in the room, the Blood Clan girl Jiaer, seeing the blood mist erupt, quickly explained to Lu Jin.
"You must not go out. The main component of this blood mist is the blood of the Blood Clan True Ancestor."
"If you inhale this blood mist, it's equivalent to ingesting the blood of the Blood Clan True Ancestor, and it won't be long before you are transformed into Blood Servants or Dependents."
Who knew, before Jiaer could even finish speaking, Lu Jin had already handed a special gas mask to Cui Yuxin and the others.
In addition, Lu Jin also gave Cui Yuxin and the others some self-defense tools.
From the moment he saw the blood mist, Lu Jin knew that this blood mist was completely different from the previous one.
Therefore, he had to be fully prepared!
Seeing that Lu Jin and the others were already prepared to deal with the blood mist, Jiaer couldn't help but frown.
"The main component of this blood mist is the blood of the Blood Clan True Ancestor. Your things might work against me."
"But this blood mist is a part of the Blood Clan True Ancestor. Do you think your tools will still be useful?"
Before she finished speaking, a wisp of blood mist seeped into the room through the door crack.
But the next second, Lu Jin directly took out a layer of spray.
After the spray and the blood mist intertwined, the blood mist actually disappeared directly into the air.
Seeing this scene, Jiaer's eyes widened; she could hardly believe what she was seeing.
The blood mist was eliminated?
This works?
Lu Jin, meanwhile, added a cup of an unknown liquid to the humidifier.
Through the operation of the humidifier, the internal liquid turned into a spray that permeated the entire room.
This way, the blood mist should not be able to harm Lu Jin and the others for a short period of time.
"This... what exactly is this?"
Even Jiaer, at this moment, couldn't help but feel utterly bewildered.
What exactly was this thing?
It could actually counteract the effects of the blood mist?
Lu Jin glanced at her: "A proprietary secret recipe."
Hearing this, Jiaer was somewhat displeased, but she didn't dare to directly refute Lu Jin and could only continue to sit on the sofa.
Lu Jin looked out the window at the public area outside, where the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad was fighting against the company members who had been transformed into Blood Clan.
He wondered if the company, with its strength, could overcome this crisis.
If even the company couldn't solve it, then his intervention would be useless.
Just as the Blood Clan girl in front of him said, this blood mist was a part of the Blood Clan True Ancestor.
As long as the Blood Clan True Ancestor did not voluntarily withdraw it, or if its main body died, this blood mist could only be counteracted, not completely eliminated.
Therefore, they still needed to actively find the Blood Clan True Ancestor.
And just then, everyone's gaze turned to the door, and Jiaer quickly became alert.
Because she sensed the aura of a kindred spirit outside the door.
"Oh? Someone has already gotten a head start?"
Bang!
The door was violently kicked open.
A charming woman holding a scythe stood outside the door, and when she saw the scene inside the room, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
This room was actually not covered by blood mist?
But she quickly discovered the key secret: the unknown liquid on the table.
"Interesting, I seem to have opened a surprise box."
"Mr. Lu Jin, the sixth seat of the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny, and the leader of the Cosmic Alliance."
"Are you willing to become a member of the noble Blood Clan and serve our True Ancestor Galas alongside me?"
Before Lu Jin could speak, Jiaer stepped forward.
Her gaze was fixed on the charming woman in front of her.
"Pah! Kala, you wretched woman, with me here today, I will absolutely not let your scheme succeed!"
"Hehe, little one, you should go back to sleep. This is not a place you should be…"
Before she finished speaking, Lu Jin's attack had already arrived.
The charming Blood Clan Kala clearly hadn't expected Lu Jin to act so decisively.
When she saw the attack method in front of her, she couldn't help but let out a light laugh.
Could some pointed weapons that weren't even alloys truly harm her?
