The other members, seeing Fang Tianhe open the life channel, hurriedly stepped onto the fixed frame and leaped up.

When they reached the 1st floor, the mutated zombies also entered Lin Xinghai's 100-meter perception range.

"How fast!" Lin Xinghai was shocked.

However, his attention quickly shifted because explosions were continuously coming from the right front.

The explosions were getting closer and more terrifying, as if they were about to collapse the entire research institute.

"What's happening now?"

This thought was still swirling in Lin Xinghai's mind when he saw Fang Tianhe run towards the direction of the explosions.

Lin Xinghai didn't have time to think much and immediately followed the team forward.

At this moment, Fang Tianhe was moving in a straight line, but his direction of advance had no passage, so he could only continue to crash through the walls to enter the rooms ahead.

Swoosh!

The Sky Splitting ability was used again. The surface buildings of the research institute had less stringent requirements than the underground ones, and the walls did not contain alloys, only high-strength steel and concrete.

So this time, Fang Tianhe didn't have as much difficulty crashing through, but his aura still dropped significantly, clearly indicating a considerable consumption.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The zombies in the room immediately pounced on Fang Tianhe, but Fang Tianhe reacted even faster. He raised the hand cannon in his hand and fired three consecutive shots, blasting away the twenty or so zombies that rushed over.

Using the hand cannon at such close range could quickly clear the zombies, but Fang Tianhe himself had to endure a certain degree of shockwave.

He dared to do this only because of his powerful physique.

Lin Xinghai was the second to enter the room. At this moment, the room was still filled with smoke, making visibility extremely low.

In such a situation, it was very difficult to aim and shoot.

But this referred to ordinary people. Lin Xinghai was different. At such close range, his perception could already determine the positions of the zombies.

Relying on this, he quickly fired, instantly completing the follow-up shots and killing the five zombies in the room that hadn't been blown up.

A flash of surprise crossed Fang Tianhe's face. If it were any other time, he would definitely stop to see how Lin Xinghai did it.

But at this moment, the mutated zombies were only 60 meters away.

Even with his hearing, he could still hear a strange swishing sound, as if it were the sound of some liquid flowing.

Fang Tianhe dared not pause for a moment and immediately crashed into the wall of the next room.

At the same time, a loud explosion came from the adjacent room.

When Lin Xinghai rushed into the opposite room through the hole Fang Tianhe had created, he saw Fang Tianhe pressed against the wall, with a trace of fresh blood at the corner of his mouth.

He had been hit back by the shockwave from the explosion.

"Captain, are you okay!" Lin Xinghai asked hurriedly.

"Nothing serious, let's go out quickly." Fang Tianhe detached himself from the wall and continued running forward, though he was injured, he could still hold on.

Lin Xinghai looked ahead, and at this moment, all the walls in front of them had been breached.

They should say, they had been blown through.

Following this blown-out passage, they only needed to run another 100 meters to get out.

At the end of the passage, there was the snow-white Frost Sky mecha. The missile protection cover on its leg was open, and the miniature missiles inside had been reduced by a large amount.

It was clear that this passage had been directly blown out by the miniature missiles.

"Really simple and brutal!" Lin Xinghai couldn't help but comment, but it was indeed very practical.

With the path cleared, the group's speed increased. When they were about to reach the exit, the mutated zombies also caught up to this passage.

Lin Xinghai turned his head and saw the wall being pushed aside, and then a humanoid monster emerged from it.

This mutated zombie was quite strange because it had no claws or horns anywhere on its body. Instead, it was very smooth and elastic, as if it were made of soft plastic.

The first feeling Lin Xinghai got from this thing was that, except for its size, it seemed harmless.

However, when the others saw it, their faces changed dramatically.

"Damn, how unlucky, to encounter this thing." Roger couldn't help but curse.

"What is it? Is it very scary?" Lin Xinghai asked.

"This thing is called a Blood Demon, or Blood Devil for short. When the disaster broke out, it was the sudden appearance of this thing that spread the virus, causing so many humans to turn into zombies." Roger explained.

The Blood Devil let out a strange roar, its voice sounding as if it were coming through water.

Of course, no one was paying attention to this at the moment because the Blood Devil was charging forward, and its speed was extremely fast, leaping forward several meters in one jump.

"Get out of the way!" Shen Han's cold voice echoed through the loudspeaker on the mecha.

She had already raised the electromagnetic railgun and used the Frost Sky ability.

Lin Xinghai and the other mercenaries immediately dodged to the side.

In the next instant, a white trace condensed in the air in front of them.

Pfft!

The bullet accurately shot into the Blood Devil's body, which, composed of blood, instantly froze over, making it difficult to move.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two miniature missiles followed closely, directly hitting the Blood Devil's body.

Boom! Boom!

With two loud explosions, the Blood Devil's massive body was torn apart into pieces.

Lin Xinghai was a bit stunned, "This... is too easy to deal with!"

He cast a puzzled look at Roger, but the latter immediately dragged him and ran out of the research institute.

Only then did Lin Xinghai have the chance to look back, but this glance made his eyes widen.

Because the pieces of the Blood Devil's body, after being torn apart, turned into blood balls, and these blood balls could still bounce forward, still chasing after them.

During this process, the blood balls would come together and quickly merge.

When these blood balls chased out of the shelter, they had completely merged back into the Blood Devil, with no trace of injury.

This made Lin Xinghai's scalp tingle, but fortunately, they had already run out, and Fang Tianhe had also activated the Sky Splitting mecha to come over.

"Let's go, back to the car, don't cause trouble here." Roger said.

Soon, they joined up with the team waiting outside, and the energy crystals were placed on the multi-functional off-road vehicle.

Fighting against a monster of the level of a mutated zombie without a mecha was impossible.

So the group escorted the multi-functional off-road vehicle, quickly moving away from the battlefield.

With the cover of the Sky Splitting and Frost Sky mechas, it wasn't difficult for the group to move away from the battlefield.

But if they couldn't kill or severely injure the Blood Devil, with its pursuit, they wouldn't be able to safely leave the city center.
