Supreme Gene Master - Chapter 21

Turning around, Han Ning followed the team forward.

The feeling Tong Bi gave him just now was like an ethereal iceberg. Although it made his heart beat, it was cold and threatening.

At this moment, the leader of the Sun family, He Shengliang, came over and asked with concern, “Are you alright, Han Ning?”

Han Ning nodded. “Thanks to the team member behind me, I’m fine.”

He Shengliang finally relaxed.

Assistant Han was someone his family wanted to protect at all costs. If anything happened to him, his life would be in danger.

Although Han Ning was fine, he felt a little regretful.

He did not know what species that dimensional beast was. Under everyone’s gaze, he could not stop to extract the genes.

However, his encounter raised the entire team’s vigilance.

After He Shengliang communicated with An Bixin, he immediately decided that someone had to open up the path ahead to avoid any possible threats.

The candidates to scout the path were naturally chosen from the ordinary soldiers.

An Bixin pointed at the two team members. “You, and you. The two of you move a hundred meters ahead of time and observe the surroundings carefully. If there is any danger, report back immediately!”

“Yes… Sir!”

The two team members hesitated for a moment before leaving the team.

There was nothing they could do about it. They were the weakest members of this group. Additionally, they were soldiers. With the orders from their commander, even if it was hell, they would still have gone right in!

With the scouts, the team continued to advance.

However, he had just walked fifty meters when a roar came from ahead.

Then, everyone only had time to hear a scream before they saw a team member running over in panic.

“Report! In front… Ah!”

Before he could finish, a tough and durable looking tongue flicked out from behind the soldier and instantly dragged him back into the darkness.

This scene sent chills down everyone’s spines.

Those two team members were killed just like that!

Han Ning followed in the middle of the group and swallowed his saliva.

There were tens of thousands of types of dimensional beasts, and the terrain here was rugged and complicated. Who knew when a terrifying existence would attack and kill a living person.

At this thought, he turned back to look at Tong Bi.

If she had not saved him, he would have ended up like the other team members.

Just as Han Ning was feeling nervous, An Bixin pointed out two more members.

This time, the two chosen ones were scared.

Not only were there soldiers in this team, there were also many elites from the financial groups. They usually only listened to the orders of their respective owners, they did not have the concept of “obeying orders is a natural duty”.

These two people were obviously the followers of some big shots in the financial groups.

Recalling the situation just now, one of them retorted, “Captain, going to the front is equivalent to seeking death. Why don’t we move together?”

“Bastard! How dare you disobey me?”

An Bixin cursed angrily and actually slapped him.

The power of the Ultimate Speed Realm was ten times stronger than that of the Ultimate Vitality Realm. With this slap, blood immediately spurted from the corner of that team member’s mouth.

Everyone’s heart skipped a beat.

An Bixin retracted his hand and said coldly, “Hurry up and scout the way. If you still want to disobey me, I will kill you the moment we get out!”

Under An Bixin’s threat, the two of them could only proceed forward cautiously.

Seeing this, Han Ning shook his head.

These people from the financial groups were indeed evil spirits that ate people without even spitting out their bones.

Even dimensional beasts knew how to work together in a group, but these people didn’t even care about the lives of their servants.

However, he only dared to think about it in his heart.

That An Bixin was clearly a petty person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Offending such a fellow was no different from creating trouble for himself.

Next, the entire team went deep into the caverns.

During this period of time, the two team members who had gone to scout the way had encountered some kind of beast attack. One of them was severely injured and on the verge of death, while the other was completely obliterated!

An Bixin, on the other hand, left the heavily injured member to fend for himself.

The leader of the Sun family, He Shengliang, also started to select members from his team to scout the path. After all, this operation was a collaboration between both parties. He could not always let the Qin family contribute.

Han Ning had a good first impression of He Shengliang.

The leader did not say a word from beginning to end. He did not treat his subordinates coldly either. Han Ning once thought that he was kind.

However, what happened next completely overturned Han Ning’s values.

He Shengliang obviously did not ask Han Ning to scout ahead. However, when one of the team members that he chose hesitated just for a moment, He Shengliang immediately broke two of his ribs!

He even let the team member scout ahead with injuries!

This method was even harsher than An Bixin’s.

Han Ning finally understood.

He was too naive.

The people from the financial groups were already used to being tyrannical. They rarely had any sympathy for the people below them. If not for the fact that he still had some value, he would probably be the one sent out this time!

This was because Han Ning realized that the people who were chosen to scout the path were the weakest and the weakest in the team.

An Bixin and He Shengliang were obviously sending weaklings to be cannon fodder!

Fortunately, the two members did not encounter any danger.

The team traveled for a few hundred meters and entered a slightly open area.

After reaching this place, An Bixin looked around and gestured to the two people in front, “Come back first.”

As if they had been granted amnesty, the two of them hurriedly ran to the back of the line.

At this time, An Bixin had arrived in front of a collapsed mound. He frowned.

“Researcher Bai, what is this?”

He was naturally shouting for Bai Yu.

Before the team set off, the information of the team members had already been sent to the leaders of both sides, making it easier for them to command during battle.

Bai Yu walked over and looked at the collapsed mound before looking around.

There were similar mounds scattered all over the open area.

However, these large and small mounds seemed to have been destroyed. Most of them had collapsed and ruptured.

Squatting down, Bai Yu took a closer look and said slowly, “These low mounds should be the nests of the Divine Blood Ants. Those taller ones should be the nests of the Longevity Worms.”

“The reproduction method of these two types of dimensional beasts is very similar to the ants on the ancestral planet. They build their nests on the ground and store their eggs in their nests, waiting for them to hatch.”

An Bixin was delighted.

“So, we can encounter a large number of Longevity Worms and Divine Blood Ants here?”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but smile.

The Longevity Worm and the Divine Blood Ant. Vitality genes could be extracted from the former, while the latter had superior strength genes. Both were things that the families and armies desired.

However, Bai Yu denied it. “Not necessarily!”

“The nests here have all been destroyed, long abandoned. There shouldn’t be any living creatures here, but we can explore a bit. Who knows, there might be unexpected rewards..”
