Apocalypse Meltdown

This cubicle differed from the others as there was no transparent window to see through. There were only walls and a door. Nobody knew what would happen once the door was opened.

Wangcai stretched its head out of Chu Han's pocket and stared at the name on the door in astonishment. The fake troop should not belong to the army, but they were powerful. They had taken Chu Han's parents but ignored Jiang Tianqing who was downstairs. The three blue lines under the name of Chu Han's mother should stand for something special. 

What surprised Wangcai was it could find nowhere the name of Chu Han's father.

Chu Han stretched his hand hesitantly and pushed down the handle and opened the door.

'Creeeak-'

——————

Ding Siyao moved as soundlessly as he could and reached the wooden cabinet, hiding the first door. He had no time to complain about the manufacturer's poor concealing skills and just entered inside.

When Ding Siyao reached the locked door, he reached in his pocket and grabbed a little device, which he then placed on the password panel. With swift movements, he installed the device and in less than a minute the door, which had nearly blocked Chu Han's advance, opened just like that. 

He entered inside and was attracted by the bright corridor leading to the lab. After sweeping the lab, the second concealed door, which was wide open, and stared at it with a complicated expression. Although he could open the first door with the help of the little device, he would fail to do so with the second one. However, when he looked through the door, he saw Chu Han standing at the end of the corridor.

Ding Siyao was confused as to why Chu Han knew the password.

——————

When Chu Han opened the last door in the corridor, Wangcai nearly screamed, but suppressed it and calmed down, while looking at Chu Han worriedly. 

Chu Han's body was shaking, and his eyes turned bloodshot. At the same time, he was clenching his fists so tightly that his fingernails torn open his palm and blood dripped slowly down the floor. As for his facial expression, nothing could describe it better than ferocious. 

In the room was a chair with a middle-aged woman tied on it. She was very slim, and she had bloodstains in her wrists due to the rope binding her tightly. In front of her, were a few bottles of dark red liquid. The content of some of the bottles had become dry, while in others it was still fresh.

What was really appalling were two suction tubes extending out of her back. One tube contained a black liquid while the other an extremely scarlet liquid. The suction tubes' liquids were being transfused into her bloodstream through her vertebra. 

The woman was not dead, but her breathing was weak. Suddenly, she raised her head when she heard the door's creaking sound. She had a beautiful face, and the air she exuded was something one could hardly see from people of the same age. Even though she was tied and weak, she had still her wits.

Even though Wangcai had seen Chu Han's family pictures, it was shocked by how beautiful she looked up close, even in such a state.

'What a beautiful aunt!'

The beautiful woman's dim eyes regained their luster the instant she saw Chu Han. Yuan Xiye's pale and dry lips trembled, and tears flooded her beautiful eyes. At the same time, there was not the slightest trace of blame in her eyes. Instead, she wore a broad a smile, which saddened Chu Han. It was as if thousands of needles were pricking his heart.

Her voice was hoarse, but she tried hard to pretend that she was doing well, "Son, you're back?"

Chu Han's pain in the heart intensified when he heard the surprise and myriad other emotions in his mother's tone. He dashed to his mother without a second thought and hugged her as hard as he could without injuring her. Chu Han raised his head again and stared at the suction tubes connected to his mother's back. His exploding anger and tyrannical aura seemed to be able to destroy the entire universe.

Beasts!

They had mixed zombie and hybrid blood and then transfused it to his mother!

Beast!

Chu Han's thick killing intent exploded as he wanted to slaughter every single person who had contributed to his mother's current state!

At the same time, the sound of footsteps came from behind. Ding Siyao, who had run to the end of the corridor, stopped in his tracks and what he wanted to say was stuck at his throat when he saw Chu Han's body and then the name on the door- Yuan Xiye.

Ding Siyao was already shocked by what he had seen in the cubicles, and he was still in the dark about what was happening, when he found the name of the woman he had been searching for. However, his shock only grew when he stepped into the room and saw the two suction tubes with scarlet and black liquid connected to Yuan Xiye's vertebra and Chu Han with his back to him hugging Yuan Xiye who lay prone on Chu Han's shoulder with unstable breathing.

At that moment, Yuan Xiye said something to Chu Han with great difficulty. She looked she was going to leave her last breath at any time.

Ding Siyao heard the words 'your father', 'Mensa' and 'Long Ya'. He couldn't hear anything else clearly.

Ding Siyao was thunderstruck. Yuan Xiye was Chu Han's mother!?

Ding Siyao had been assigned for this mission with his partner by Hu Ya's Headquarters. They had been sent to Anluo in order to protect and bring Yuan Xiye safely to Shangjing. Who could have thought that she was Chu Han's mother? It was a shocking coincidence!

Suddenly, he snapped out of his dazed state and wonder why Yuan Xiye knew about Long Ya and who Chu Han's father was. What was Mensa? Why had Chu Han's mother been caught and treated her as a test subject?

He was extremely puzzled by every question that came to his mind, and couldn't help but look at Chu Han. Yuan Xiye's identity should be special since she knew about Long Ya and was in their protection list!

However, did Chu Han know anything about it?

Chu Han was aware that someone was standing behind him, but he did not look back. He kept hugging his mother quietly and listened to what she had to say; her voice was really weak. He had never heard any of this in his previous life. Chu Han would have remained confused for the rest of his life if she had not said the keywords.

No wonder he had met Long Ya before entering Anluo; no wonder Hu Ya's special members, Ding Siyao was present; no wonder the fake troop had come to pick his parents and totally ignored Jiang Tianqing; no wonder the beasts had locked his mother in this place and experimented on her!

Everything was so clear now. The only missing piece of the puzzle was that Chu Han's parents were Mensa's members!
