Undead

Chapter 82

Zhou Rong hadn't reacted to Si Nan's counterattack so quickly, and he hadn't even seen the movements clearly. But Zhou Rong had the advantage of speaking frankly and openly, so after being momentarily stunned, he immediately clapped his hands and said defiantly, "Well done! Nice coordination!"

Hmm? Si Nan wondered if we had been coordinating?

With a gun pointed at his forehead, Tan Hao's expression was particularly distorted. Si Nan holstered the gun and stopped looking at him, turning to the search and rescue team. He made a hand gesture to Zhou Rong, indicating that his part was done, and now it was up to him.

Before Zhou Rong could even take action, he heard voices from behind.

"Oh yeah!" "Si Nan is so handsome!"

Yan Hao, Cao Dingshi, and Chun Cao's figures rushed forward, lifting Si Nan high in the air and huddling around him to calm him down.

"...?" Zhou Rong's embrace froze in mid-air, but he quickly acted as though nothing had happened. He calmly rolled up his sleeves, hands on his hips, and approached Tan Hao, asking coldly, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Tan Hao clenched his teeth, seemingly in intense inner turmoil. Zhou Rong stared at him up close, his gaze pressing. After a long silence, Tan Hao finally managed to say through clenched teeth, "If it comes to the last step, I'm willing to do whatever it takes to rectify the situation."

Zhou Rong scoffed and gestured to the special forces behind him. "If there was a chance to grab the antibodies with a human bomb, this place would have been broken long ago. Do you think you, with your old arms and legs, could outcompete these young guys?"

Tan Hao was rendered speechless by the rebuke.

Zhou Rong looked down at him from above and asked, "Where is Romuel hiding?"

"..." Tan Hao finally reluctantly admitted, "Behind the forested hill. I need to take you there."

Inside the antibody crate were three samples, all of them unfinished prototypes. Romuel's condition was to bring Si Nan in exchange for one of the samples. As for Si Nan, he could be maimed or even killed. However, negotiation with a tiger was extremely dangerous. The White Eagle Base wanted to have complete control over the antibodies, and after Tan Hao used Si Nan to regain one of the samples, Romuel was even more likely to kill him to eliminate loose ends.

A team of special forces trekked through the jungle, crossed streams, and in the distance, a vegetation-covered hill appeared.

"Umm," Si Nan contemplated for a while, then said, "Romuel is very self-repressed."

Zhou Rong paused and handed Si Nan a pair of binoculars, encouraging him to continue.

"It's said that he had a good reputation when he attended military school, very disciplined, an extreme Alpha elitist dictator, and he hated Omegas. Later, the hatred turned into resentment and gradually became paranoia. Perhaps it's due to the psychological distortion caused by extreme repression."

Zhou Rong, observing the hilltop from afar, said in a low voice, "He turned his fear of self-repressed into hatred towards ** objects, classic A-cancer."

Si Nan seemed very relaxed. "Something like that."

As Zhou Rong adjusted the binoculars, the distant scene continued to zoom in. A muddy off-road vehicle was parked on the hilltop, and it was unclear if there were people inside. Romuel was leaning against the car door, and a fierce, blonde Alpha woman had appeared from somewhere, offering him a cigarette.

"Daughter," Zhou Rong instructed everyone to quickly hide behind the trees and said, "The woman who bullied you last time has shown up again."

Chun Cao immediately rushed forward indignantly. "What? Where is she?"
