Fast Travel Absurdity Sutra

After Cang Zhi, Ju Ye Lang, and Ji Lang Jun came out of the abandoned laboratory, they were filled with reluctance, but they had no choice. Although they stumbled along the way in the dense forest, they were still determined to continue searching.

They rushed through the mountains and forests for several days. Their shoes were worn out and their clothes were torn by thorns, but the evil spirit was still there, like a mad hound, biting its target tightly and not letting go.

That day, they finally arrived deep into Dongshan Mountain.

The forests here are deeper and quieter than the places I've been to before. Even the chirping of birds is rarely heard. The occasional low howls of unknown wild animals add a bit of eeriness.

The sunlight struggled to penetrate the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows on the ground.

"It's here. I can feel it. The lab is nearby."

Cang Zhi's voice was a little hoarse due to fatigue, but there was fanaticism in his eyes.

He took out the wrinkled, sweat-soaked fragment of the map again and compared it with the surrounding terrain.

The three of them searched everywhere in the mountains and forests, not missing any suspicious places.

Suddenly, Ju Yelang tripped over a protruding stone. He cursed angrily and was about to get up, but as he stepped on the stone, he found a hidden cave covered by vines and thorns slowly emerging from a hidden mountain wall.

"Come and see!" he excitedly called to his companions.

Cangzhi and Jiro-kun quickly gathered around. Cangzhi looked at the slowly revealing hole, an excited expression on his face: "Yes, this is it. The entrance to the laboratory should be around here."

They began to carefully clear away vines and thorns around them.

Cang Zhi and the other two stood in front of the tightly closed stone door, looking nervous yet excited.

Cang Zhi took a deep breath and slowly and carefully took out a yellowed notebook from his arms. The edges of the notebook were worn, and it was obvious that it had been read countless times.

His fingers trembled slightly as he opened the book carefully. His eyes quickly scanned the densely packed text and complex diagrams, comparing them with the cave in front of him.

"found it!"

Cang Zhi exclaimed in a low voice, his voice filled with suppressed excitement.

Juyelang and Jiro-kun immediately came over, their eyes fixed on the notebook.

"It's right here. Follow this sequence and press the special position on the door to open the stone door."

Cang Zhi pointed to a mark on the notebook and explained to the two.

The three of them turned their eyes to the stone gate and began to look for those special locations.

Ju Yelang was the first to discover the first mark, which was a tiny groove hidden in the patterns of the stone gate. It could not be found without careful observation.

He stretched out his finger and pressed it gently.

Immediately afterwards, Jiro-kun found the second location, which was a raised stone point located in the lower left corner of the stone gate.

He pressed hard, and the stone point sank firmly into the stone door.

Cang Zhize was concentrating on finding the last key position. His forehead was covered with sweat and his eyes revealed a hint of anxiety.

Finally, he found a small hole covered by dust in the upper right corner of the stone door. He quickly put his finger in and pressed hard.

As the last mechanism was triggered, a dull roar came from the bottom of the stone gate.

The three of them stared at the stone door nervously, only to see it slowly rise up, revealing a dark and deep passage.

"Success!"

Juyelang shouted excitedly.

Aochi and Jiro-kun couldn't hide their excitement either, and they walked into the passage cautiously.

As soon as they stepped in, darkness completely submerged them like a surging tide.

The dim light of the flashlight seemed so weak in the thick darkness that it could be swallowed by the darkness at any time.

Wherever the halo reaches, it can only barely reflect the vague outlines of the surroundings. A little further away, there is endless darkness, bottomless, and it seems like it leads to another unknown world.

Their figures seemed so small in the dim light, and the darkness around them seemed to carry a sense of oppression, weighing heavily on their hearts, making their breathing unconsciously become rapid.

At the same time, a damp smell hit me in the face, a mixture of earth, water vapor and decay, so thick that it made it almost hard to breathe.

Water drops kept seeping out of the wall, slowly sliding down the rough stone wall and gathering into puddles of muddy water on the ground.

With every step they took, there was a "puff puff" sound under their feet. It turned out that their shoes were sinking into the wet mud.

The ground was covered with thick moss and was very slippery. People could easily fall if they were not careful.

Their clothes were quickly soaked by the humid air and stuck tightly to their bodies. The coldness spread along their skin, making them shiver uncontrollably.

At this time, Lantian had already hidden his figure and was following the three people quietly like an invisible shadow.

Her footsteps were light and silent, and she took every step very carefully, for fear of making any sound and alarming the people in front of her.

Along the way, she kept a close eye on the three people's every move, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

In the passage, apart from the heavy footsteps and breathing of the three people, there was occasionally the sound of Lantian's clothes fluttering, but it was quickly swallowed up by the darkness.

The three of them walked cautiously into the laboratory, which was dark and damp.

Cang Zhi shone his flashlight for a long time before he found some worn-out oil lamps hanging on the wall. He lit the oil lamps, which flickered faintly in the darkness.

There were all kinds of strange-looking experimental equipment placed around, some of which were already rusty, and some of which even occasionally made a slight buzzing sound.

Cang Zhi hunched his body and walked very lightly, every step he took seemed as if he was afraid of disturbing the danger hidden in this silent laboratory.

His palms were covered in sweat as he gripped the pistol tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force.

"Everyone, be alert. This damn place might be hiding something deadly."

He lowered his voice and gave instructions to Juyelang and Jirojun beside him, with a barely perceptible nervousness in his voice.

The three of them carefully shuttled between the intricate experimental equipment. They were surrounded by all kinds of strange instruments. The liquid in the glass containers was flashing with strange light, silently telling of the danger here.

Their figures looked particularly thin in the dim light, and every slightest sound could make their nerves tense in an instant.

Just then, a chaotic and hurried sound of footsteps came from the front.

Cang Zhi suddenly stopped, his eyes flashed, and he made a quick gesture.

The three of them hid behind a pile of tall experimental equipment like well-trained agents, not daring to make a sound.

A group of people in black uniforms rushed into the laboratory. They looked quite aggressive, and each of them exuded a murderous aura.

Cang Zhi didn't recognize the leader, but the arrogant Ergou recognized him immediately.

This is Colonel Yamada.

Colonel Yamada is tall and although he is old, his eyes are as sharp as an eagle. The years have not dulled his sharpness, but have made him more experienced and majestic.

His eyes were like a sharp knife, scanning the laboratory, as if he wanted to see through every corner.

"Who are you? How dare you break in here!"

Colonel Yamada's voice was like a loud bell, echoing in the empty laboratory and making people's eardrums hurt.

There was unquestionable majesty in his voice, as if he was the master here and any intruder would be severely punished.

This was where he had lived for several years. He was too familiar with it.

Therefore, as soon as he entered the laboratory, he immediately discovered that someone had entered before them.

Cang Zhi knew that hiding any longer was useless, so he simply stood up.

There was a cold smile on his face, which revealed madness and determination.

"It doesn't matter who we are; what matters is this laboratory."

His voice was equally cold, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. There was a flame of greed burning in his eyes as he stared at Colonel Yamada.

Colonel Yamada looked them up and down, with a flash of undisguised disdain in his eyes, as if he was looking at three ants who overestimated their own capabilities.

After being released from prison, Colonel Yamada has been very unhappy.

He was depressed, feeling like he was living like a dog. It was unbearable. His former glory seemed like a thing of the past. Now, after much hardship, he had finally returned to the lab, to his turf, and finally regained his former confidence. He even began to become extremely arrogant.

"Just you? This is my place, how can you covet it?"

He snorted coldly, his voice full of sarcasm.

"Today, none of you will leave alive!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the men behind him immediately spread out in a fan shape, surrounding Cang Zhi and the other two. The weapons in their hands flashed coldly in the dim light.

Cang Zhi was not willing to be outdone, he made up his mind.

He raised his pistol and pointed the black muzzle at Colonel Yamada.

Cang Zhi seemed to be encouraging himself and shouted loudly: "If you want us to die, then try it! We have decided to take over this laboratory today. Whoever stands in our way will die!"

Juyelang and Jiro-kun also drew their weapons and stood beside Cangzhi. The three of them stood back to back, ready to fight to the death.

The atmosphere in the laboratory suddenly became extremely tense. The air seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder. Both sides were on the verge of a fierce battle.

Everyone was on edge, their eyes fixed on each other. At the slightest sign of trouble, bullets would fly out instantly, and blood would stain the cold ground red.

The two sides were on the verge of a fight and the atmosphere became tense in an instant.

Suddenly, Sozhi took the first step and shot at Colonel Yamada.

Colonel Yamada reacted quickly and dodged the bullet by turning sideways.

At the same time, he waved his hand and his men immediately rushed towards Cang Zhi and others.

A thrilling and fierce fight suddenly began!

In the laboratory, deafening gunshots rang out one after another, exploding like firecrackers; hoarse shouts resounded through the sky, as if to break through the roof; and the crisp sounds of various objects colliding with each other intertwined into a chaotic and heart-pounding symphony.

Although Aochi, Juyelang and Jiro-kun tried their best to resist, they were helpless because Colonel Yamada's men were not only numerous but also well-trained and skilled.

Faced with such a powerful enemy, they gradually fell into the dilemma of being passive and the situation became increasingly unfavorable for them.

Colonel Yamada was confident and knew the situation in the laboratory very well.

He knew very well that this was just a relatively unimportant place.

As for the true main core laboratory, its security measures were extremely strict, and it would be extremely difficult for outsiders to easily break in. It was precisely because of this that he dared to give it his all here without any scruples, and to engage in this life-and-death battle with the enemy.

At this moment, Colonel Yamada secretly made up his mind to capture Aochi and the other three in one fell swoop, and never allow them any chance of escape.

Because he knew very well that if these three people escaped from this laboratory today, other crucial laboratories would probably face huge threats.

At this moment, a figure quietly hid in the dark - it turned out to be Lantian who was watching all this silently.

She was like an agile cheetah, quietly lurking in the darkness, blending perfectly into the surrounding environment without attracting anyone's attention.

Lantian knew very well that this was not the best time for him to show up, and if he was not careful the whole situation might get out of control.

According to Desser Ergou, there are at least three more such laboratories in the Eastern Province. She must find all three of them.

Alas, it’s really a waste of time to show off Ergou.

He couldn't even find the exact location of these laboratories.

"But, host, there really is no specific location. You know, the hidden plot really won't be leaked."

The arrogant Ergou felt very aggrieved.

Well, the host has no moral principles and slanders the system at will.

It's really frustrating...

Lantian rolled his eyes and ignored the complaints of the arrogant Ergou.

She suppressed her inner urge and continued to patiently wait for the crucial moment that could turn the tide...

In the end, after a fierce chase and fight, Cangzhi, Ahua and Lao Lin unfortunately fell into the hands of the wolf-like and ferocious men led by Colonel Yamada.

They were pressed firmly against the cold, hard ground, unable to move at all, like three flying insects trapped in a spider web, struggling in vain.

"Tell me! Who are you? What is your ulterior motive for venturing into this place so boldly?"

Colonel Yamada walked up to Sozhi with a gloomy face, looked down at him condescendingly, and asked in an extremely cold tone.

However, faced with such harsh questioning, Cang Zhi clenched his teeth tightly and refused to utter a single word.

Seeing this, Colonel Yamada frowned slightly, and his already cold eyes instantly became even colder.

He snorted coldly, then waved his hand gently at the men beside him, indicating that they could start using some special means to force confessions from Cang Zhi and others.

But just when these ferocious men were about to make a move.

Suddenly, without any warning, the entire laboratory began to shake violently, as if it had encountered an extremely strong earthquake.

Immediately afterwards, the originally bright and stable light began to flicker continuously, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, casting a strange and terrifying shadow over the entire laboratory.

In the blink of an eye, the originally orderly laboratory suddenly fell into extreme chaos.
