Human Shackles - Chapter71

The four guards outside the door were currently leaning against the wall and dozing off. When they saw the door open, they instinctively straightened their bodies and saluted. It was at this moment that Luo Kai moved as fast as lightning. His hands grabbed the heads of two guards and fiercely twisted them. At the same time, his legs flew up and kicked the hearts of the other two guards. Following a series of muffled groans, the four guards simultaneously fell to the ground.

Luo Kai dragged the corpses of the four guards back into the room. He picked up a handgun and equipped it. The movement of a gun was too great, so he still needed a cold weapon. It would be best if he could find his own bayonet. He carefully recalled the structure of this building. Not only was this place used by the Dragonshark Pirates to imprison blood thralls, it was also a storage area for some important items.

Other than the fixed guards, there would be patrolling soldiers passing by every few minutes. He didn't have much time left, so he quietly walked out of the door. There were rows of fluorite lamps hanging on both sides of the corridor. The thick smell of blood assailed his nostrils. He carefully walked to the next room and stuck his ear close to it to listen. He fished out a key and opened the door. Even though he already understood the situation inside, he still couldn't help but change his expression when he saw it with his own eyes.

This room was much bigger than the one he was imprisoned in. There were more than ten people densely packed inside. All of them had deathly pale skin and were breathing weakly. The long period of anesthesia injections had already caused them to fall into a deep coma. According to medical theory, they were all in a vegetative state. Even if they could receive timely treatment, only a few of them would survive.

Luo Kai expressionlessly closed the door. He then checked a few more rooms and found that they were all the same. After muttering to himself for a while, he walked even deeper underground. The guards there were even tighter. There was a sentry every five steps in the corridor. Fortunately, these guards clearly weren't too focused today. All of them were lying on the ground drowsily.

To Luo Kai, these people were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. He was like an assassin hiding in the shadows. He silently crept up to two guards and twisted their necks before moving on to the next pair of targets. The silent slaughter continued. In less than five minutes, all the guards in the corridor had been dealt with.

Opening the door of a room, he saw rows upon rows of shelves filled with all kinds of weapons. Surprisingly, his Three-Bladed Stiletto was among them. After regaining his weapon, Luo Kai finally let out a sigh of relief. His chances of escaping had increased.

In addition to the weapons, there were also two solid wooden chests filled with shiny gold coins. Each gold coin was worth ten thousand star dollars, which was estimated to be no less than ten million. Even Luo Kai couldn't help but feel excited. He casually grabbed a handful of gold coins and stuffed them into his pocket.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a glass tank in the corner of his eye. There was a finger-shaped transparent crystal floating in the tank. This thing should also be a valuable item. He walked over and stuffed it into his arms.

Carefully leaving the room and reaching the end of the corridor, Luo Kai suddenly stopped. His face showed a struggling expression. After a moment, he turned around and walked to the door of another room. He opened the door according to the number on the key. There was a cast iron cage in the room. On a large bed inside, there was a monkey with red hair tied up. It was the Blood Monkey!

Compared to the Blood Monkey he saved last time, this Blood Monkey was much larger. It was almost the size of an adult. A pair of long fangs protruded from its lower jaw. Its face was very fierce. What was frightening was that there was a small hole in its chest. Its squirming heart could be clearly seen.

Luo Kai thought of the method of raising bears to extract their gallbladder in his previous life. People would open a hole in the gallbladder of a bear and connect it to a catheter. Without harming the bear's life, the catheter would continuously extract the bile. It was the same now. As long as the Blood Monkey condensed blood essence, it could be directly extracted. Life was just a tool to them.

This Blood Monkey's physique was extremely strong. It seemed to have sensed the arrival of an outsider. It struggled to open its eyes. Its red eyes were filled with tyranny. Its mouth full of fangs slightly opened and closed as if it wanted to roar loudly. However, its current condition made it unable to even commit suicide.

Luo Kai secretly sighed. He stepped forward to open the iron cage and cut off all the steel ropes that bound it. Looking at its huge body, he was a little worried. If he carried such a huge animal on his back, he would not be able to escape. He wondered if he could use the water to dissolve the drug in its body.

He tried hard to calm his thoughts. His consciousness gradually seeped out of his body, looking for a frequency that could resonate with him. Unfortunately, there were no water pipes here. The mist in the air was too thin. After a long time, he was only able to condense a fist-sized water droplet.

Moreover, when his consciousness came into contact with the Blood Monkey, it immediately triggered a rebound. The frequency of life clearly had a kind of free will. It was impossible to resonate with him.

After a long time, he finally gave up. Thinking about it, if he could control the blood of other life forms, wouldn't he be invincible?

"I'm sorry, I can't take you out of here." Luo Kai waved his hand to disperse the water droplet and turned to leave.

As Luo Kai moved step by step, the tyranny in the Blood Monkey's eyes gradually faded. It stared at him strangely. When it saw that Luo Kai was about to leave, it immediately became anxious. The hair on its body stood up, and a low and hoarse sound came from its throat.

Luo Kai helplessly turned his head. "I can't save you now. I'll think of a way to save you after I go back and recuperate."

The Blood Monkey obviously did not understand what he was saying. Its pair of big eyes kept moving. The direction of its movement was slanted downwards, pointing at its chest.

Luo Kai was slightly puzzled. He walked forward and looked into the small hole in the Blood Monkey's chest. A walnut-sized blood-red sarcoma hung below its heart. He probed, "This is the blood essence?

You mean you want me to take it off? "

The Blood Monkey hurriedly rolled its eyes up and down.

Luo Kai hesitated for a moment. He reached his hand in and pinched the blood-red sarcoma between his two middle fingers. It was very hard. It didn't feel like a sarcoma, but more like a rock. He confirmed with the Blood Monkey again. "I'll really take it off?"

After getting confirmation, he gently took it off with his two fingers. He held it in front of the Blood Monkey and said, "And then?"

The Blood Monkey opened its mouth and saliva kept flowing out. It seemed to be expressing that it wanted to eat the blood essence.

"Oh." Luo Kai nodded and put it in front of its mouth.

The Blood Monkey's eyes showed anxiety, but its body was completely out of its control. Its throat moved, and the blood essence automatically slid down.

This made the Blood Monkey even more anxious. It tried its best to stick out its tongue and make a vomiting gesture.

Luo Kai was puzzled. His time was limited. He didn't have time to waste here. He waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving. Don't worry, I'll come back to save you when I recover!"

Seeing Luo Kai's figure disappear, the Blood Monkey's face showed a depressed expression. In fact, it wanted to let Luo Kai eat the blood essence. But this human in front of it was so stupid. He actually fed it!

…

The commander of the Dragon Shark Camp, Pang Kun, was lying in bed. He had just severely reprimanded the subordinate in charge of logistics. Today, a large number of soldiers in the camp showed signs of dizziness and vomiting. It seemed like some kind of food poisoning. The hygiene of the camp had always been worrying, but the pirate soldiers were used to being lazy. They couldn't be disciplined like the regular army.

Originally, he wanted to have a good sleep. However, no matter how he tossed and turned, he couldn't fall asleep. When one's body arts reached a certain level, their sixth sense would become more and more accurate. With a heavy heart, he got up and patrolled around the camp. Tonight, the Dragon Shark Camp was very quiet. The soldiers didn't even have the mood to gamble. Even the patrolling soldiers didn't have the energy to do so. They all found a corner to sleep.

Pang Kun came to the logistics and equipment department building with a gloomy face. Naturally, there weren't any forces in Longyang County that dared to sneak attack the Dragon Shark Camp. However, it was better to be safe than sorry. He had to discuss with his fourth sister and take precautions.
