Stabilizing Madness

Chapter 93: tame

"Tower 1, please report today's internal situation."

In the No. 5 outer tower, there is a department responsible for the communication and supervision of each tower.

The young lady in a tight-fitting miniskirt uniform is confirming the situation at each branch tower according to the daily stipulated time.

Soon, a reply came from the other side.

"Everything is normal in Tower 1. The safety system data in the tower has been uploaded synchronously."

The evil tower covers a very large area.

Five of the towers are far apart from each other. Except for the transfer of military personnel, the staff between the towers rarely have direct meetings and interactions.

More often than not, they just rely on official communications within the tower to communicate.

The outermost Tower No. 5 has a department dedicated to monitoring the external security of each tower.

Mainly for building damage, enemy or foreign invasion alarm. This is also the biggest problem faced by the evil tower as an independent place. Other than that, all defense mechanisms have a stable history of hundreds of years. They are confident in the staff stationed and the security system, and in most cases they will not deliberately go back and forth every day to confirm.

Especially in the evil tower, besides the official staff, there are only E-types.

If it was a crazy E-type, even if he accidentally escaped from the torture room and started to go crazy, his speed of hurting people would be far slower than the staff in the tower, and he would definitely have time to pass the news to other towers.

Therefore, when all the people who entered Tower 1 never returned and were unable to successfully convey their experiences to other towers, no one would immediately realize that something was wrong inside the tower.

This resulted in Mu Ziyue entering Tower 1 for several days without leaving, and no one realized the problem.

—After all, there were research projects led by him and people he wanted to execute, so it was common for him to stay in there for a long time.

The young lady said in a gentle and cheerful tone: "Okay."

She glanced at the quiet perimeter of Tower 1 and asked a question that had puzzled her for a while: "By the way, the supervisor happened to see the surveillance cameras around Tower 1 yesterday and wanted me to ask you why there haven't been any military patrols outside Tower 1 in the past few days?"

Even if there are any, there are only a few kittens.

There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment.

Then another more mature male voice was heard saying with a smile: "This is the order of His Highness, we dare not ask more."

The young lady who asked the question recognized the voice and chuckled, "Now that the tower master said that, I understand."

As for Mu Ziyue, it is normal for him to give some strange orders.

While calling up the sensor data uploaded from Tower 1, her eyes were turned to the several computers with many small split screens on the left.

I saw on one of the surveillance screens that two people from the Gold Wing and Silver Dragon were fighting in a corridor. After confirming their numbers, I contacted Tower 3: "45th floor, F corridor, two of your staff members are in physical conflict. I suggest you go up and check the situation."

Under normal circumstances, some internal conditions of Tower 5-2 will also be monitored in real time.

The only special thing about Tower 1 is that it is monitored only by internal personnel and is not allowed to be disclosed to outsiders. At most, they communicate with Tower 1 every day to confirm whether there are any problems or whether they need to request support.

After finishing the record and before ending the communication, the lady kindly reminded: "By the way, according to the weather forecast, there may be thunderstorms during this period. If necessary, please remember to turn on the wind and lightning protection system to prevent the circuit system in the tower from being affected and causing accidents."

The tower leader's tone was still cordial: "Tower 1 received it, thank you for your concern."

This is the end of my simple daily newsletter.

Xu Qingran operated the console to shut down the communication, as skillfully as if he was an old employee who had worked here for many years.

The slightly plump tower commander stood beside him and watched him, his hands handcuffed with the same shackles they had used on countless criminals.

He chuckled.

It's a rare opportunity for me to experience what it feels like to be a prisoner.

Xu Qingran put the communication station into standby mode so that any notification could be transmitted to his communicator at any time, and then he said to the tower commander: "Thank you for your cooperation, let's go."

The communication station on Tower 1 can only be operated by designated personnel whose identity information has been registered by the system.

So during this period of time, no one suspected that there was any problem with the people who were in contact with them inside Tower 1.

After all, who would have thought that Xu Qingran had a lightning ability that could help him destroy all the electrical control systems in Tower 1 in a short period of time and take control of it? He even threatened the tower leader. Now that he was helping to cooperate, the people in the other towers would be even less suspicious.

There are still a small number of innocent staff members in the tower.

These people had never participated in any innocent massacres, so he didn't kill them for the time being. In addition, in order to torture Mu Ziyue, he needed them to go out occasionally to cover for him and buy more time.

Among the staff, some have some connection with Mu Ziyu.

They also have a close relationship with the tower commander. When they were under control, they were quite obedient in order to thank Colonel Xu for not killing them.

The elevator is slowly descending to the -3rd floor.

There were only Xu Qingran and the tower master inside.

The head of the tower suddenly said: "To be honest, I always thought you and Shen Tingyu were the same type of people."

“Now I realize that I was wrong.”

Hearing this, Xu Qingran turned his head to look at him.

No reply.

The tower leader shook his head and chuckled, saying in a leisurely tone: "You are like a beast that can't bark."

"Looks clean, well-behaved and docile, calm and rational."

"But when it comes to biting people, they are even more ruthless and crazy than those E-types, and they will not stop until they die."

The tower leader didn't seem to be criticizing him, but just sighed: "I was wrong at the beginning."

Xu Qingran looked at him again, then turned his gaze away without saying a word.

He then went on to say: "I only made mistakes twice."

"The first time was Shen Tingyu, the second time was you."

In the years since Shen Tingyu left the Evil Tower, the tower master always felt worried every time he met him again.

Worried about his hypocrisy, worried that he had some uncontrollable conspiracy, worried that he would become a madman who, after climbing to a certain position one day, would turn around and lead a group of demons back to destroy the entire empire.

But as things have developed to this point, Shen Tingyu's situation is much better than he expected.

It would be better to say that after not having much in-depth contact for a few years, Shen Tingyu's thoughts have changed.

When Xu Qingran was first sent to the evil tower, Shen Tingyu called his office.

Before his men went to bring Xu Qingran over, Shen Tingyu had a brief chat with him. He used his status as the general of the Golden Wing Battalion to put some pressure on him, and in an imperative tone asked him to ensure that Xu Qingran was safe before Mu Ziyue came.

We also learned from the call that he was about to go on an important mission that had been widely rumored in the outside world recently.

Although his tone was as nonchalant as ever, the tower leader could hear an inexplicable determination in his voice - a result that was contrary to his guess. It was as if something had successfully pulled him back, and seemed to have made him change the trajectory of his life plan.

And Xu Qingran.

When he first entered the Evil Tower and experienced the fighting arena, he did leave people with an extraordinary impression.

But no matter how cruel he behaved, the tower master didn't think he would do anything evil after leaving the evil tower.

Especially when he learned that his soul was shaped into a ruler, he was not even surprised. Because when Xu Qingran was first sent to the evil tower, he felt that there was some kind of "divine" brilliance in this child.

But I didn't expect it.

He made a wrong judgment.

What Xu Qingran has is not the great kindness and love of gods.

It was a ruthless judgment of his target. There was even something that was his bottom line, and once it was touched, his judgment would become unrestrained.

The tower chief thought that Mu Ziyue was probably the person who touched that line.

In the silence, Xu Qingran suddenly let out a pleasant chuckle.

He said without any context, "That's quite appropriate."

These days, Xu Qingran's main job in Tower No. 1 was to take Mu Ziyue to experience all kinds of torture instruments in the tower.

On the first day, the electric chair gave him the strongest level of pain.

The dignified prince of the empire, the one who paid the most attention to manners and cleanliness, was directly irritated to the point of foaming at the mouth, rolling his eyes, and even excreting. When he was awake, he could only use the most vicious eyes and tone to scold him, and the scolding was particularly violent and unpleasant.

Whenever this happened, Xu Qingran would remain silent and continue starting.

—In the previous life, and even in this life, when Shen Tingyu was imprisoned in the evil tower, Mu Ziyue liked to torture him using this method of training obedience the most.

But Mu Ziyue couldn't tolerate it as much as Shen Tingyu.

After a few times, I wisely chose to shut up.

In addition, there were also whipping, needle pricking, fire roasting, charcoal burning... everything that could be used was allowed for him to experience personally.

There is a particularly interesting one, where you smear a layer of honey on a person, and then release some kind of insects with sharp teeth from this world. They will be attracted by the honey and bite off flesh from the person while eating.

They are not big in size.

They are only slightly larger than ants, and they don't bite off too much flesh from people. They are not fatal, and even such wounds will heal quickly for high-level psychics, but the biting action is very painful, so these insects are also used as tools to torture people.

Xu Qingran is more straightforward.

He stripped Mu Ziyue naked, leaving him without even underwear. He poured honey all over him, threw him into a large vat filled with those bugs, and stood outside watching him being tortured, smiling with his eyes curved.

To be precise, whenever he saw Mu Ziyue being tortured, he would laugh like a pervert.

The system expressed extreme fear.

Every day I feel that I and my other colleagues are not assigned the same task script.

There are also the medicines that Mu Ziyue asked people to research.

Xu Qingran also used it on him.

For a single type of medicine, Mu Ziyue would double the amount based on the maximum amount that he had ever used on Shen Tingyu at one time.

She didn't worry about whether he would die or not, nor did she care how painfully he screamed, or how hideous his body became. Her expression of cold-eyed indifference was even more like a demon than the Mu Ziyue in Shen Tingyu's memory.

No one can be blamed.

Who asked Mu Ziyue to invent a special medicine that can keep people alive

Every time he felt that he was about to be tortured to death by drugs, Xu Qingran would inject him with a special medicine.

It can always pull people back from the brink of death, and then continue to do new things over and over again.

Mu Ziyue felt unprecedented humiliation from Xu Qingran.

This man would even put a metal ring with a chain around his neck every day, forcing him to crawl in humiliation like an animal.

Mu Ziyue tried to resist in the early days.

He was at least a 3S-level psychic, with a strong physique, muscular body, and even perfect chest and abdominal muscles. Since childhood, he had studied various self-defense techniques and fighting.

Every time Xu Qingran scolded him, it was his only chance to fight back.

But he didn't understand. He should be better than Xu Qingran, a young master who changed his career halfway, in every aspect, but he just couldn't get any good out of him. Even the spiritual class that should have been suppressed by him was so evenly matched.

The most important thing is that there is a strange power in Xu Qingran’s mental strength.

A kind of lightning force that is infinitely close to electric shock... or even more powerful. When it strikes a psychic who is already easily affected by electric current, it has a double effect.

So no matter how Mu Ziyue tried, he just couldn't beat Xu Qingran.

Especially Xu Qingran's methods, compared with his, he was even worse. He didn't care about his status as the eldest prince at all. Once he showed resistance, he would whip him and trample on his dignity through force.

"Mu Ziyue, don't you like to train people like dogs?" Xu Qingran held the chain connected to the metal ring on his neck as if he was walking a dog.

There was a cold smile in his eyes: "I will satisfy you now and let you experience for yourself how good it feels to be a dog."

Be content.

He has never been so cruel to the white dog.

Xu Qingran recalled the dream he had at Bishui Villa that night.

He walked up to Mu Ziyue, stepped on his head, lowered his head and ordered with a half-smile: "Mu Ziyue, bark and let me hear it."

This scum also humiliated Shen Tingyu in this way in his previous life, right

·

Xu Qingran dug out a bunch of purple rice hallucinogen from the laboratory, which Minghai had used on Shen Tingyu in Xicheng.

I vaguely remember that Shen Tingyu had endured ten times the dose at one time.

The batch that Xu Qingran found was quite a lot in number.

There were probably about twenty of them, he didn't count them carefully and poured them all into the liquid-mist conversion instrument.

Today, Mu Ziyue was tied to the adjustable medical recliner again.

Xu Qingran pushed a shelf in the room to his side and looked down at him with a faint smile.

The skin on Mu Ziyue's body is now ugly and hideous.

Only the remaining left eye was intact. In addition to the wounds from insect bites that had not yet healed, there were many scars of varying depths on his body, from being beaten by fists or whipped with tools.

Including his mouth.

From the moment it was torn into pieces by Xu Qingran, it has never been intact again.

After several days of physical and mental torture, Mu Ziyue's mental state is now much worse than before.

He changed different potions day by day, sometimes he felt like he was in deep heat, sometimes he felt like he was freezing cold, and sometimes he felt like he was insane and had nightmares. In a trance, he seemed to have gradually lost his will, his thoughts became dull, and he couldn't recognize where he was.

All he remembered was the handsome man who used to bully him every day with all kinds of tricks.

Those peach blossom eyes that always had a ruthless smile, no matter how cruel and indifferent the expression inside, were still beautiful and unforgettable. Every time I saw him, my chest was filled with all kinds of emotions, the strongest of which was anger.

But when his eyes fell on the other person, he couldn't help but feel a strange desire and morbid fascination.

As the eldest prince of the Kaian Empire, Mu Ziyue felt humiliated to be beaten like this.

But what was even more humiliating was that while being beaten by Xu Qingran, he gradually felt the strange sensation of chopsticks, which was intertwined with his rational mood. Although his mind was extremely disgusted, his body was uncontrollably obedient.

Just like many years ago.

When he was retaliated by Shen Tingyu and was set up by someone. That was his dark past that he didn't want to mention. Compared with Xu Qingran's venting, the E-type who messed with him really regarded that kind of thing as a perverted hobby to play with and torture.

But at that time, he felt a strange pleasure from such pain.

Afterwards, he simply couldn't face the facts.

After executing the person, he suppressed this unspeakable preference. After so many years, he thought he had long since gotten out of that state, but he never expected to be put into that state again by Xu Qingran.

With his thoughts in a mess, Xu Qingran took an oxygen mask from the instrument and tied it to Mu Ziyue's face.

Mu Ziyue's eyes gradually became unfocused again, staring blankly at the person beside the chair.

—Who wouldn’t want to have some exciting fun with someone who is so good-looking and has such a special temperament

"I can't stand it anymore. I didn't expect Mu Ziyue to be such a trembler..."

The system couldn't help but complain, and out of professional ethics it didn't finish saying a certain banned word.

Xu Qingran sneered.

As for Mu Ziyue's personality, he has figured it out during this period of time.

But he had no interest in playing any letter games with him, let alone satisfying his special hobby.

He just wanted to make him live a life worse than death.

After putting on the mask, Xu Qingran started the machine without hesitation, converting the medicine into mist for Mu Ziyue to inhale.

In fact, he had only inhaled less than one-tenth of the amount, but he already began to feel pain.

This is different from the pink potion that Xu Qingran was almost injected with by Xu Qingan in the bar before.

It does not have the effect of forcing people to solve physiological needs, but it will make people feel extremely uncomfortable and fall into a state of hallucination. If it is not solved in time, they will have to endure the maddening pain until the effect of the drug wears off.

As for how long the drug lasts

It must be that the more you consume, the longer it will take.

Shen Tingyu almost lost his mind after being shot by ten bullets, forcing him to shoot himself.

It is conceivable that the torture Mu Ziyue faces now is twice as much as he faced back then.

The person on the chair was so red that his blood vessels looked like they were about to explode.

No matter how he struggled, how he abandoned his dignity and begged for mercy, Xu Qingran's heart did not move. He leaned against the wall near the door from beginning to end, watching the game from a short distance.

The next second, he raised the corners of his mouth and laughed out loud: "Hahaha."

Dog man.

From now on, no one will make you feel uncomfortable anymore.

In the room, there were the heart-wrenching and hysterical cries of the tortured person.

In this place where such sounds echo all year round, it seems so normal.

"Colonel Xu."

1In the tower, there is a canteen where the staff can have meals.

Xu Qingran left a cook behind so they had something to eat every day.

That day, Xu Qingran met the tower master in the cafeteria again.

He sat alone in the corner eating. The other staff members didn't dare to approach him. Only the tower master walked towards him with a tray of food as if nothing had happened.

Sit down in front of him.

The tower leader still had a smiling expression on his face: "How is the eldest prince?"

All the survivors in Tower 1 knew about Xu Qingran's torture of Mu Ziyue.

But they dared not say anything or ask anything.

Xu Qingran replied calmly: "I won't die."

It would be too easy for him to just die.

The tower commander nodded.

Then, he said in a tone that sounded like concern: "The Highness is down in Tower 1. There is only him and his personal guards, so you can still suppress them."

"But Colonel Xu, if it's the army of the All-Sky God System or even the Golden Wing and Silver Dragon Battalions, are you sure you can deal with all of them?"

The tower master asked.

Mu Ziyue is a son that Queen Su Ya supports wholeheartedly, and she is determined to help him ascend to the throne.

If she knew that her eldest son, whom she had focused on training, was crippled by Xu Qingran, she would definitely not let him go. Now that the old king was critically ill, the power of the empire fell into her hands. As long as she gave an order, the two camps of the Golden Wing and Silver Dragon belonging to the empire would obey her orders and capture Xu Qingran.

Given Su Ya's concern for Mu Ziyue, she would definitely notice something unusual soon.

When she finds out the truth, how could she let Xu Qingran go

The tower commander and others had never seen Xu Qingran actually use his lightning ability, nor had they seen him use it to knock down nearly a hundred guards around Mu Ziyue at once, so they believed that with his limited personal strength, he would most likely die if he was surrounded.

Of course, the number gap between Mu Ziyue's guards and the imperial army is still quite large.

If Xu Qingran could use the strongest explosive power from his previous life, he could not kill everyone in an instant, but at most he should have no problem dealing with a thousand soldiers at a time.

—Although, this is just like drizzle in front of the huge military group.

"Pooh."

The system despises.

"Obviously, the problem is huge."

"If you really dare to use it like this, you will be killed right after killing a thousand people. Do you believe it?"

Xu Qingran did not respond to the system, but only said to the tower master: "Thank you for your concern."

“I just believe that there is always a way out. No matter how big the difficulties are, there will always be a way out.”

It depends on whether you can find it.

And whether you can grasp it.

Seeing how determined he was, the tower commander thought that he had indeed reached a point of no return, so he stopped trying to persuade him.

Three days later.

Xu Qingran received a contact request from Tower No. 5 during non-reporting hours.

He went to the communication station and heard the lady in Tower 5 say, "Tower 1, there is a communication request from the commander-in-chief of the Silver Dragon Battalion. He hopes to speak to Mr. Xu Qingran who is currently detained in your tower."

Mu Ziyu

Xu Qingran was silent for a moment, then replied, "I understand. Transfer his communication to Tower 1 first."

"OK."

About half a minute passed.

On the other end of the line, came the familiar voice of Mu Ziyu, with the pride of being the Third Prince in his tone: "I want to talk to Xu Qingran."

Xu Qingran chuckled silently and said slowly, "If you have to fart, do it now."

Mu Ziyu: “…?”

So fast? He thought he had to wait for a while before the tortured and dying Xu Qingran was slowly brought up from Tower 1.

Also, why does Xu Qingran's tone still sound so light

Didn't he say that his elder brother went to Tower 1 to cause trouble for him more than a week ago? Is his elder brother still capable? He looks much weaker than when he tortured Shen Tingyu. He worried for nothing!

"Xu Qingran, my father just woke up for a while." Mu Ziyu didn't waste any time and went straight to the purpose of the call.

"I went to the palace as soon as I heard the news and got the official letter from him. I can send someone to get you out right away!"

It was evening now.

It was raining heavily in the area of the evil tower. Looking out from the window of the communication tower, one could occasionally see powerful lightning falling from the clouds like a dragon.

Full of pressure.

After listening to Mu Ziyu's report, Xu Qingran thought for a moment and said, "Okay, thank you."

His tone was exceptionally calm, and there was no sense of relief at the impending release.

Mu Ziyu: "... That's it?"

Xu Qingran: "Then I'll give you a red envelope?"

"Are you short of money? Is ten thousand yuan enough?"

Mu Ziyu: “…”

Is that what he meant?! He meant to say, how can someone be so calm after hearing that he is about to be released from the evil tower! People who don’t know would think that he went to Tower 1 to inspect and visit during this period!

Mu Ziyu said unhappily: "Don't be too happy too soon."

"There's a reason why I took so much trouble to get you out. The demons have been making big moves recently and are approaching the territory of the Kaian Empire. The demons in the disaster-stricken areas have also sensed the tribe's big moves and have been attacking fiercely recently. The camp is almost overwhelmed."

"When you come out, you have to help me lead the army and resist those guys in the disaster area!"

Xu Qingran didn't care much: "It's a small matter."

"Not small at all!" Mu Ziyu's tone was very worried, "You don't even know that the army sent by the Empire to the station 60 light years southwest has not returned yet."

"It was fine a few days ago, they responded to messages, and everything was normal after landing. But a few days ago, they suddenly lost contact. We can't get in touch with them at all, and there's no sign of them coming back. Now we have to send a support team over to check on the situation."

Mu Ziyue complained loudly: "That's a large team that includes the elites of two battalions, please don't let anything serious happen!"

"Oh, by the way, your future uncle Shen Tingyu is also among those who have lost contact."

"You said that with such a strong general leading the Golden Wing Battalion, the army shouldn't have any major problems, right?"

After Mu Ziyu asked, he heard no response from the other end of the line.

He suspected that the communication signal was not good. Just as he was about to ask for confirmation, he heard Xu Qingran ask him: "What did you say?"

The tone is strangely calm.

Mu Ziyu had simple thoughts, and hearing Xu Qingran's normal tone, he didn't notice his true mood.

He obediently told Xu Qingran roughly what happened outside while he was captured in Tower 1, including the plan to repair the important power station 60 light years away.

"It is said that General Shen took the initiative to propose to take on the task of commanding the team."

"He's so confident, there must be no problem, right?" Mu Ziyu asked uneasily.

Xu Qingran on the other side did not respond again.

He sat alone at the communications desk, holding an older wired communicator in his hand, his eyelids slightly drooped and his lips pressed into a straight line.

The hand holding the communicator tightened more and more.

It was so many days ago.

And Shen Tingyu, this bastard, actually went on the mission without saying a word and without telling him anything.

Xu Qingran's mind was still clear.

When Mu Ziyu got impatient and started to call him to confirm whether he was online, he asked him, "When will the support team heading to the site leave?"

"It seems that their resources and warships are almost ready. They should be ready tomorrow morning?" Mu Ziyu replied.

The support operation involved two battalions of troops, so the assembly point was at the military base on the Queen's Star.

Coincidentally, it’s only about a two-hour flight away from the Evil Tower.

Xu Qingran said: "You don't have to send anyone to pick me up."

"I want to participate in this support operation."

Mu Ziyu: “…?”

He was a little confused: "But... the situation here in the empire is also very critical. We need someone as capable as you to take charge of reducing the pressure on the affected areas."

Xu Qingran asked him: "Where is Lu Cheng?"

"Isn't he a good conductor?"

Mu Ziyu had a headache: "He is also one of the support personnel this time."

Xu Qingran said confidently: "Then why don't you let him stay to command the disaster area and give me his support quota?"

Mu Ziyu: “…”

"But I'd rather you stay..."

After a few seconds of pause, he explained in a somewhat embarrassed tone: "Xu Qingran, I'll tell you honestly, the mission operation at Site 60 is more dangerous."

"If you're not careful, you might lose your life there."

"If we stay in the Empire, even if we cannot resist the invasion of the demons in the future, the supplies on land will be sufficient and timely, and the survival rate will be much higher than if we were sent abroad!"

The conversation between the two fell silent again after Mu Ziyu said these words.

After a long while, Xu Qingran asked coldly, "Mu Ziyu, do I look like someone who is so afraid of death?"

No matter how slow Mu Ziyu was, he should have been able to hear the displeasure in his tone.

He said nervously: "That's not what I meant..."

Xu Qingran suddenly interrupted him: "Mu Ziyu, let me tell you this."

"If Shen Tingyu can't come back, I will blow up the empire before the demon army reaches the empire."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

It's really a headache to have an outstanding colonel who has such a good relationship with the general of the enemy camp!

Xu Qingran had already said this, so Mu Ziyu naturally couldn't stop him anymore.

He believed that Xu Qingran was really capable of doing such a cruel thing. After all, he looked like a crazy and cruel person who didn't care about the lives of others.

Before ending the call, Mu Ziyu realized something was wrong.

Asked Xu Qingran: "Wait, you are still detained in Tower 1. If I don't send someone to pick you up, how can you get out?"

But if he goes to the evil tower from here, he may not be able to catch up with the departure time of the support team.

Just as Mu Ziyu finished thinking, he heard Xu Qingran say, "You don't have to worry about this."

"I can find a way out myself."

Mu Ziyu: “???”

That was Tower 1, which was famous for its strong defense. It was not a place that could be easily escaped with a few punches or a bit of madness!

I was about to retort, but when I listened again, the other party had hung up the call.

Mu Ziyu: “…”

Fine, fine, he didn't care. It was Xu Qingran's fault if he couldn't come out anyway! If he couldn't catch up, it would be his wish!

At this time, it was exactly nine o'clock in the evening.

This place is in the same hemisphere as the military base, so there is not much time difference and he still has plenty of time.

After Xu Qingran hung up the call, he immediately walked out of the communication desk and went downstairs.

When he arrived at the negative 3rd floor, the space where all the living people in Tower 1 except him gathered, those people were gathered together and talking boredly.

Seeing Xu Qingran suddenly appear at the window, everyone was startled and the room fell silent.

Soon, he was seen walking slowly to the control console outside the room and suddenly operating the buttons on it.

The next second, the ceiling of the room slowly opened and several objects similar to cannon muzzles dropped down.

Everyone stood up in shock.

Although this is not a gun that can launch a mental attack, it can emit a spray. The specific effect of the spray depends on the choice of the person outside.

In the system settings, there are ordinary ones that weaken human strength, some that make people dizzy and vomit, some that make people sleep for a whole day and night, and some that are highly poisonous and can take people's lives.

The mist was colorless and odorless, and they had no way of distinguishing its type. They could only stick together in fear, begging Xu Qingran to spare their lives.

—Through Xu Qingran’s cruel methods during this period, they have already assumed that he would choose a deadly poison to take their lives.

In the room, only the tower master was the calmest.

He seemed like someone who had experienced countless storms and was able to face any outcome calmly.

No matter how the people in the room begged, Xu Qingran outside the room never responded to them.

After making the choice he wanted, he left in the direction he came from without looking back.

The moment they saw the spray coming out of the muzzle, everyone in the room felt desperate.

Until they began to feel dizzy and extremely sleepy, and fell down one after another.

On the corridor, Xu Qingran walked silently.

For a moment, he really wanted to use poison, after all, this was the least troublesome option.

But before taking action, he remembered that Shen Tingyu had a good relationship with the tower chief.

Shen Tingyu was not a person who would blindly make friends with others. Those who could talk to him were mostly those who had never hurt him in his past life or had helped him. He was not sure whether the tower leader was the one, so he would just let him live.

—Although Xu Qingran kills without blinking an eye, he also clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment.

After Xu Qingran knocked down the group of people, he did not leave Tower 1 immediately, but took the elevator all the way down to the most confidential -5th floor.

This is where all experiments and research are carried out.

Almost all the people in the research institute have left.

He came to a computer room at the deepest part.

There were many mainframes inside, and it was also the only place connected to the Internet in Tower 1. These computer systems were filled with experimental records, including the video recordings of their experiments using the E-type.

He even found a video of Shen Tingyu from many years ago.

There was a small part that also included Mu Ziyue. These were hidden files that could only be opened by Mu Ziyue, who currently held the highest control over the evil tower.

But now, with the cooperation of Xu Qingran's special abilities and its own system, the system of the evil tower has handed over all control to him.

He could open it easily, and even in the first few days after he discovered it, he would sit here every day and play Shen Tingyu's video over and over again, as if he wanted to record all the pain he had suffered.

And today, Xu Qingran returned to the control room again.
