Chapter 431: Chapter 246: The Final Blitzkrieg
The night wind of November already had a tendency towards cold, as Jiang Shu and his group hurriedly moved through the alleys, their long coats being constantly blown up by the wind, rustling.
The group remained silent, their serene expressions conveying a fiercely commanding aura.
Before long, they halted before a brick and stone wall.
This wall appeared no different from the others around it, but in reality, it was a metallic, movable door. "We’ll split into two teams—Fox, Lang Tai, you go find Diller and Dr. Seboll, while I’ll head to the experimental area base alone."
"Going there by yourself?" Fox asked, somewhat surprised. "Isn’t the experimental area obviously more dangerous?"
"It’s fine, let the dangerous places be my responsibility," Jiang Shu nodded, not saying much more. For him, infiltrating the research base alone was preferable.
The Optical Invisibility Technique could only cover him and four Tablet Spirits, and could not extend to Fox or Lang Tai, so having them nearby would instead hinder Jiang Shu’s ability to fully utilize his strength.
"Be careful," Fox nodded toward Jiang Shu, then he patted a full set of metallic arm armor attached to his right arm, reassuring himself.
He was also participating in this mission, and unlike in the past when facing mechanical enemies, he now possessed different capabilities.
Fox had acquired the "Imaginist" Prosthetics previously taken from Diller, and Liu Tingruo had helped him remove Diller’s usage traces from it, applying new encryption techniques. Even if this equipment were to reappear before Diller, he wouldn’t be able to take control of it.
In the past few days, Fox had almost fully mastered this T1 Research Sequence equipment, so he now had adequate self-protection ability.
Although puzzled why Jiang Shu preferred acting alone, Lang Tai did not question his decision. He was always like this, only knowing to follow orders without additional personal thoughts.
Lang Tai merely glanced beside Jiang Shu, where there were only three Tablet Spirits; usually, there would be four.
However, that wasn’t his concern, so he just activated his wristwatch, bringing up Dr. Seboll’s laboratory and began analyzing the terrain there.
The group then went their separate ways, both boarding common black taxis that headed in different directions.
It was late at night, yet the streets were still bustling, filled with the lively scene of cars and people, all seemingly harmonious.

"Do you mean that this rat also comes from that place?" Diller stood slightly stunned upon hearing Dr. Seboll’s lab results.
"Yes, its size is larger, a rare strong type within the rat population, with enhanced agility and endurance, and it also possesses superior intelligence," Dr. Seboll continued. "Generally, one can assume that mere city garbage wouldn’t be able to produce such strong individuals, but I’ve already captured seven similar ones. According to the lab results, they all originated from the same place."
Diller frowned, this comment almost instantly leading him to the most likely answer, "So, is it very probable that someone has been feeding them?"
"Yes, exactly, and it’s been happening for a long time," Dr. Seboll nodded. "According to the lab results’ location data, that rat nest is situated in the sewer system of E9 district, but I once organized an expedition as an environmental volunteer with no results."
"I understand, thank you, Doctor," Diller saluted Dr. Seboll. He was direct, "Our Dick Family will assess your project, and you will receive a certain amount of research funding."
"Much appreciated." Having attained his desired outcome, Dr. Seboll respectfully bowed slightly in gratitude.
But suddenly, a blue light flickered within Diller’s Prosthetic Eye, and his expression drastically changed.
It was a message from the black-clothed Hunters nearby, informing him that a man had broken through and appeared near the laboratory, and they had already launched an attack on him.
"Boom—" Suddenly, the laboratory’s wall was pierced by a long blade, then easily and smoothly sliced open like tofu.
After remaining stationary for a brief moment, the wall began to tilt toward the inside of the laboratory, appearing on the verge of collapse.
"What!" Dr. Seboll was shocked upon witnessing this scene. That spot was exactly where he normally conducted his research, containing numerous specimens and data waiting for analysis. If that wall were to fall, his work for the month would essentially be for nothing.
However, things did not escalate as he feared. Suddenly, a pair of hands reached through the newly cut gap, grabbing the sliced piece of the wall from both sides.
Then, the piece of the wall slowly slid to the right, eventually being casually tossed aside by the person behind the wall, resulting in a loud clanging sound of metal striking metal.
And the person behind the wall finally revealed his true guise.
He was tall and burly but not cumbersome, with his upper and lower limbs forming an almost perfect bodily proportion. His black clothing fluttered without any wind, seemingly stirred by the formidable aura of the newcomer, and on his face, there was a fuzzy Wolf Face mask.
