Pretending To Be A Boss

Akasi was startled.

The doctor had just taken Tang Suoye away, saying that there were some matters to discuss. He had been waiting here for Tang Suoye, who, after this mission, was supposed to become an official Hunter like himself.

No longer needing to endure those cruel experiments. His only responsibility would be to complete the tasks in the mining area.

But the current situation was clearly undergoing some changes.

"Subject 19 is no ordinary case, the organization has found a Calamity-class creature, the serum of Eden's Deer, and now they want to experiment on Subject 19 with it," said Langnu, standing behind him, was Michelangelo, the subject from the United Kingdom Fortress, designated number 14.

Michelangelo's abilities were related to psychic powers.

Under his gaze, Akasi felt his consciousness slowly slipping into chaos.

"The last time you made a fuss to save Subject 19, the organization lost a lot of good seedlings. This time, they won't let you cause trouble," Michelangelo said with an eyepatch on.

Another powerful Hunter appeared, number 12, Yuan Du.

Akasi had been on missions with Yuan Du before and knew that his abilities were also related to speed, but the most troublesome part was not his speed, but his ability to conceal his presence.

Those with single-digit numbers who were still alive were all exceedingly powerful beings; each of them could dominate the Hunter rankings among humans.

"I've never agreed with the doctor's favoritism towards you. Although you can withstand the serum of the Calamity-class creature Lei Xiao, you have no other distinguishing features besides your speed. Once your legs are bound, what do you have left?"

Akasi looked at Yuan Du, Langnu, Michelangelo, and a few other experiment subjects with unfriendly expressions around him.

He said, word by word:

"If anything happens to Tang Suoye, I will kill you all."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the great Akasi is actually concerned about a little girl. But you should know that to date, the only people who survived after being injected with Calamity-class creature serum are you, number one and number two. If you think about making a move here..."

Yuan Du's eyes shimmered with excitement:

"Even if you are number three, inside Pyramid, you'd still be killed."

Powerful currents coursed through Akasi's body.

He gritted his teeth, having not expected to encounter such a great crisis upon completing this mission.

"As long as I can't move, anyone here can kill me. Of course, you can also pray that Subject 19 passes her test. Then we can all live in peace."

Yuan Du looked at Akasi with a mocking smile:

"But even if she survives, she will be locked in a cage. You know, after the serum injection, we always need to test the power, don't we?"

Pupils contracted.

Being locked in a cage, for those in Evolution Area, they all knew what that implied.

A sharp dagger plunged into Langnu's arm. The moment Langnu winced in pain, Akasi bit his own tongue, using the sharp pain to regain clarity.

The next second, Akasi's figure flashed, a fierce thrust slicing through the air.

Yuan Du narrowly avoided it, his heart skipped a beat, realizing that had Akasi not been in his current weakened state, he might have...

"Stop him!"

All the surrounding subjects closed in, and Akasi, seeing his dwindling space to maneuver, started planning his next move.

The doctor's sudden actions gave Akasi the idea to flee the Evolution Area.

But there was a tracking device hidden within the vertebrae of his spine that couldn't be forcibly removed.

Even if he managed to escape... probably awaiting him and Tang Suoye would be an endless flight.
