System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

"Fatty, what time is it and you're still joking?"

Zhang Hao rolled his eyes at the fat man, telling him that he should be mindful of the occasion when joking.

"Understood, Brother Zhang Hao."

When the fat man saw Zhang Hao glare at him, he immediately shut up and stopped talking nonsense.

"Uncle, there are monsters outside, and the few of us can't handle them. What should we do next?"

Wu Tianzhen saw that there were too many monsters on the other side of the iron gate, so it was definitely not possible to open the gate and go through.

"We can try going over from here."

Just then, Yi Sa pointed to a window that had been built up with bricks and said something.

When everyone looked over, they noticed that two bricks blocking the window had been removed, revealing what appeared to be a passageway on the other side.

So, the fat man and Ding Yudie started removing the wall bricks.

In the blink of an eye, a hole large enough for a person to pass through was dug open.

Zhang Hao and his group passed through the brick wall and entered the interior. There was no passage, and only one side was a wall made of cast iron.

Upon seeing the cast iron walls and the iron gate on top, everyone instantly realized that this was not an ancient tomb at all, but clearly a base built in modern times.

"Uncle, judging from the architectural style and the rust on the iron gate, this should be an experimental base built by the Japanese during the War of Resistance against Japan."

Wu Tianzhen carefully inspected the building inside and said.

"Tianzhen, you studied architecture. Since you say so, it's probably true."

Xie Xiaohua had great faith in Wu Tianzhen's judgment.

At this moment, the iron gate caught the fat man's attention. He saw that the iron gate was not locked, so he immediately opened it.

Then came the stench of rotting clothes.

Everyone immediately covered their mouths and noses.

"What is this smell? Why does it smell so awful?"

The fat man cursed and tried to close the iron gate.

Zhang Hao reached out to stop him, then leaned out to check.

Behind the iron gate was a huge chimney, and the four walls were covered with a sticky, foul-smelling substance.

Zhang Hao recognized the smell; it was the stench of a corpse.

In other words, the area around the chimney is covered with corpse oil.

The chimney is about four or five meters long and wide, and several tens of meters high.

The chimney was covered with a thick layer of corpse oil; how many corpses would it take to burn to achieve such an effect?

The Japanese soldiers must have been conducting some kind of experiment in the Ailao Mountains back then, which is why they burned so many corpses.

There is a row of ladders inside the chimney, and you can climb up by following the ladders.

Just then, a drop of viscous, transparent liquid fell from above.

Zhang Hao reacted quickly and dodged it.

As soon as the slime fell to the ground, a stench filled the air, a mixture of fishy and putrid smells that made Zhang Hao feel nauseous.

He immediately used the tortoise breathing technique to hold his breath, which made him feel a little better.

When he leaned out again to look up at the chimney, he discovered a humanoid unidentified creature perched atop it.

The monster looks basically like a human, except it has an uncivilized tail, just like the uncivilized creature, the Scaled Boa. In addition, there is a layer of sticky liquid on the surface of its skin.

When Zhang Hao saw him, the monster also saw Zhang Hao.

The monster seemed cowardly, disappearing into the chimney in a flash.

Suddenly, Zhang Hao noticed that there was also an iron door on one side of the chimney wall.

He walked directly into the chimney, used an entrenching tool to open the iron door covered in thick corpse oil, and discovered that there was a passage behind the iron door.

"There's a passageway in the chimney, everyone come over."

Zhang Hao gave a greeting and led everyone inside.

At the end of the passage appeared another iron gate, which was tightly closed and welded shut on all sides.

Zhang Hao punched open the iron gate and then went inside.

Behind the iron gate was a room of about 40 to 50 square meters, with tables around the perimeter piled with glassware of all shapes and sizes, and an operating table in the center.

Wu Tianzhen, Fatty, and the others entered the laboratory behind Zhang Hao.

Everyone knew what this place was for as soon as they saw the scene before them.

Wu Tianzhen cursed and said:

"It seems our guess was right. This is the base where the Japanese were conducting secret experiments hidden in the Ailao Mountains!"

"Boss, there are still some documents here that haven't been destroyed yet."

Suddenly, Ding Yudie handed Zhang Hao a stack of yellowed, moldy papers covered with writing.

Zhang Hao glanced at it; the paper was entirely written in Japanese script, which he couldn't understand at all.

"Xiuxiu, I remember you know Japanese. Take a look at what's written on it."

"Okay, Uncle."

Huo Xiuxiu took the stack of papers and began translating.

"The Japanese have been researching mysterious events all over our Great Xia, and the Ailao Mountains are one of them..."
