Chapter 722: Retirement after Accomplishment

nyi's feelings."I understand. It was my oversight. You guys go rest, I'll handle the rest.""Junyi, go and see your elder sister!"Wan Guifen immediately adjusted her expression, shooing the father and...Ripple recognized the tentacles immediately. It was a lantern tree, but a mutated one. Don't ask her why she was so sure; she wasn't just hanging around in the vampire holy land for nothing. She had looked through many Blood Clan records about lantern trees.

The ordinary lantern trees are rather fragile, so when targeting a subject to extract their genes, they would only stealthily extend one tentacle and then quickly retract it. However, this particular lantern tree extended at least seven tentacles, dragging most of the employees of the Biocreation Company into its grasp.

Ripple wouldn't wait for this mutant species to give birth to a "second generation of humanoids" and cause trouble for herself, so she flashed her figure and entered the slowly rising gate. However, the scene before her still shocked her.

In just a few dozen seconds, the seven people who had been pierced in the brow were reduced to puddles of blood. At the same time, the gigantic lantern shattered, and seven identical figures rose from the transparent liquid. Their eyes, shifting from dazed to clear, were now fully mature.

"What a bother!"

Ripples turned her wrist, firing the deadly silk at the newly matured "Second Generation Anthropomorphs." At the same time, she flashed, eliminating the remaining creators of bioengineered beings. These people couldn't continue to provide genes for the Lantern Tree nor become its nourishment.

The deadly silk of the ripple was powerful, instantly splitting seven "Second-Generation Humanoids" into pieces. Just as she retracted the deadly silk, those scattered fragments began to merge with each other. In less than ten seconds, the seven people came back to life again, only this time they became a three-meter-tall giant.

"You reap what you sow!"

The ripples whispered a word, this was clearly the vampire's self-healing and immortality. And the three-meter-tall giant had sharp teeth and claws, which were the characteristics of a werewolf. At the same time, the special smell on the other party almost suffocated Ripples.

The giant didn't seem to care about the ripples at all. He twisted his neck and then swung a claw towards Ripple's neck.

R ripples flashed, leaving its original position, and in the next second it leaped onto the opponent's shoulder. The deadly silk also wrapped around the opponent's neck. She twisted her wrist, instantly severing the opponent's head. As she turned to leap away, she reached out towards the opponent's chest, but couldn't grab their heart. She could only flash and immediately leave the opponent.

The headless giant seemed to see the ripples, and the other claw swiped over too, its speed increasing.

Ripples frowned, the other party's learning speed was too fast, no wonder they could destroy an entire plane! She couldn't even find words to criticize these humans, how could they create such a monster. But her movements were not slow, the Death Silk wrapped around the opponent's wrist again, severing one of their hands.

The next second, the giant's head returned to its body, and the other hand grabbed the severed hand and pressed it onto the wrist. The right hand was reattached. The opponent's eyes stared straight at Ripples, twisted their neck, and vanished in an instant.

"Oh no!"

Ripples whispered a warning, and the next second a massive fist slammed into her, sending her crashing against the wall like a human battering ram. The impact left a dent in the shape of her body and forced blood from her lips.

The giant seemed quite pleased with himself for hitting Ripples, a smug grin spreading across his face. But that smile looked awkward no matter how you looked at it, unnatural, like it didn't belong on a human. After all, he had just dismembered those seven "Second Generation Personifications" - piece by piece - but not a drop of blood was spilled. Only some transparent fluid leaked out instead.

Ripple is very certain that this "second-generation anthropomorphization" is fundamentally still a plant. It's just that its reproductive ability is extremely strong, which makes it look like a human. Moreover, this is the pinnacle creation of bioengineering.

These things flashed through her rippling mind. She had already pulled herself off the wall, her eyes turning completely red, teleporting behind the other person, with a sword in her hand, it was her Lei Yao.

This time, she didn't choose to dismember her opponent. Instead, she stepped on the opponent's lower back, leaped onto their head again, and directly inserted the sword flashing with purple lightning into the top of their head.

As the sound of “crackling” rang out, the giant knelt directly on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably. Apparently, Lei Yaojian's thunder force had severely wounded him.

"Still useful!"

The ripples whispered.

She did this based on her experience in the cultivation world. Among all creatures capable of cultivation, plant spirits fear heavenly thunder the most. In essence, no matter how powerful its replication ability is, the "Lantern Tree" cannot change the fact that it originates from a plant.

The giant was shrinking, even starting to devour the remaining five people he had eliminated in a brutal way, attempting to replenish his strength to fight against the chaotic lightning power within him. However, the power of "Second-Generation Human" was also growing, and so was the lightning power, constantly suppressing it.

The ripples then moved, installing a time bomb at the fastest speed possible. Nothing in this underground laboratory could leak out, otherwise, there would be an endless stream of "Second Generation Personifications" being created.

In just three minutes, the giant had completely turned into a pool of transparent liquid, but Lei Yao Jian showed no intention of returning to Lian Ri's hand. It continued to unleash its thunder power toward the pool of liquid.

Lian Yi directly raised his hand, putting the Lei Yao Sword into his space, then threw a burning bomb. Watching the special laboratory engulfed in flames, he left through the warped door and swiftly returned along the original path.

Halfway there, he ran into Rossi who had just finished his task.

"Guide, my mission is complete!"

Evacuate the laboratory immediately. The self-destruct sequence has been initiated. We have three minutes before detonation!

Ripple said solemnly.

"Yes!"

Both figures flashed simultaneously and left the original passage.

Rossi let out a sharp shriek, all the blood clan received it, their figures flickered and left the ground above the underground laboratory, Ripples and Rossi joined with the clansmen guarding the exit after they also teleported away.

The next second, a deafening "rumble" came from the ground. The entire town of Brook trembled, and the buildings above the laboratory began to collapse. When the tremor subsided, half the town had collapsed into a deep pit.

Ripples and Rossi, Ang joined them, directly asked:

"Is the task complete"

"Guide, finishing up."

"Hurry up, we need to get out of here as fast as possible. The bio company will know their efforts have been burned down and they'll definitely come after us."

"Yes!"

Fifteen minutes later, all the blood clan members gathered again, vanished in a flash and returned to the car, then turned their heads and drove away from the checkpoint.

And the startled Raven and Morgan rushed towards the only entrance, just bumping into a group of bloodsuckers coming out. Ripples made the driver stop his car beside them.

The car window rolled down, revealing her delicate face with ripples of laughter. She smiled and said to the two people:

Our mission is complete. All the "Personoids" have been eradicated. The rest is up to you.

"Miss Ripple, what was that explosion just now"

Morgan then asked.

"You should ask those who followed us in!"very little thing. This way, she could stand invincible, gaining both sympathy from Senior Uncle Yun Ruibin and making some ordinary disciples into her allies.Everything was going smoothly at first, a...
