A disorderly mess greeted the contestants in basement 4. This was clearly a research lab, but not a single researcher was in sight.
Glass shards from broken apparatus and notepads were scattered across the floor, alongside traces of sprinkled maroonish dried blood.
As they were about to proceed, Zi gestured a warning. She carefully surveyed around and followed a trail of blood, which led to a disinfection cabinet.
She then tapped the wall several times. Suddenly, the disinfection cabinet slid aside and revealed a metallic texture and thick door.
A warm bulb was flickering beside the thick door. Zi then gently stroked around the empty wall spaces of the door. With a light tap, the flickering bulb started flickering faster before this shiny and solid door noiselessly slid aside.
A hidden cell without anyone present but a shocking mess of blood stains. One could faintly observe the repetitive flickering of a nearby computer screen.

"…"
After seeing the list of notifications, the contestants realized they had actually confidently reached here only by bypassing numerous \'gates of hell\'. Simply put, it was mainly because the base construction wasn\'t completed yet.
On hindsight, Zi reckoned she wouldn\'t fail the mission if they missed the 48 hours deadline. Instead, the mission difficulty would double.
Zi furrowed her brows as she typed swiftly. Soon, the computer screen displayed rows of blood colored warnings.
[ Top authority granted to unseal the experiment ]
[ Warning, warning: Biohazard experiment beast will now undergo catalysis ]
[ Warning, Warning: Biohazard experiment beast completion rate is only 87%, control will be lost after catalysis ]
[ Warning, Warning: Biohazard experiment beast must consume loads of blood and flesh to stabilize body proponents… ]
The four contestants drew a breath of chill air.
Everything had been smooth sailing for them ever since stepping onto Isla Nublar. Sheyan thought they could maintain this fortune till the end, but now, it seems like Hammonds wasn\'t one to resign to extinction. He would rather gamble it all and release this hazardous beast, even to the extend of sacrificing his researchers to nourish his beast.
Death or live, success or failure; it all depended on this one gamble! There was no way out for him, living would lose its meaning even if he lost.
Zi inhaled deeply as she raised her brows, her dark pupils brimming with a cutting determination.
"We must hurry at once! No more delays, the earlier we reach it, the lesser strength that beast can recover!"
Sheyan nodded while contemplating.
The contestant quartet hastened out of this secret research cell and sprinted down a connecting cavern channel.
There wasn\'t a need to worry about traps here as it was the working space of researchers. If the place was filled with snares, who would be able to work in peace? Imagine a rifle barrel that could spell your doom facing you at all times, workers would undoubtedly be scared witless.
This cavern channel was extremely long and broad. Construction things like forklifts could be found occasionally, and channel was arrayed with two neat rows of massive tank cultures. Those bulk tank cultures were made of glass and filled with a translucent pink fluid, that seemed analogous to amniotic fluids.
On a closer look, the cultivation tanks contained strange and malevolent creatures that were as tall as 4-5 metres. Distinct signs indicated a possible hybrid between wild creatures of the earth and dinosaurs. For example, a hairless Deinonychus with a wolf head; an incomparably herculean lion with the body of a Brontosaurus; a hairless leopard with armored bones……
As they proceeded further, the dinosaurs found in the cultivation tanks got weirder and strangely, more human-like. Weird dinosaurs that grew human hair and orange skin with clear brown pigments. Claws that were shaped like thumbs and fingers. Fingernails that were insanely sharp, they caused people to cower in fear.
At present, the contestants caught scent of an exceedingly thick stench of blood. After making a bend, a brightly lit research hall came into sight.
Shockingly, an incomparably gigantic blender could be seen. The blender wasn\'t filthy like cement trucks, but was sparkled with a stainless steel shine. It was currently activated and emitted faint ringing sounds.
20-30 mashed up and mutilated corpses were piled up near the mouth of the blender. Three utterly naked individuals were tossing flesh and corpses into the blender, which followed by fracturing sounds that caused one\'s scalp to tingle. In a flash, all was blended into meat paste juice.
A rubber tube shooting out from the blender connected straight to an enormous cultivation tank in the middle of this research hall. The blended meat paste was rapidly squeezed through the rubber tubing and into that cultivation tank; causing the tank to be filled with blood.
An endless churning could be seen amidst the blood liquid, as though some terrifying creature was swallowing blood unceasingly. Blood and flesh paste was devoured quickly and fortunately, the blender was supplying an endless supply of more blood paste. Hence, the cultivation tank maintained its volume and concentrated mass.
By the cultivation tank, was a middle-aged male that wore golden tracer spectacles. He was smoking a redwood briar and engrossed in his calculations. Indeed, that was Hammond whom the contestants seeked.
Upon sighting him, Brother Black immediately pulled out his \'SN-9 Wasp\' and shot the cultivation tank without hesitation.
The \'SN-9 Wasp\' was an incredibly peculiar weapon; a revolver that acted like a long-range sniper. Thus, the revolver also uses the special 7N14 steep penetrator sniper ammunition.
Such bullets were exceedingly expensive if purchased officially from the nightmare realm, costing minimally 500 utility points a round!
Following Brother Black\'s trigger, a fire light whizzed out from the muzzle as a sonorous boom resounded in everyone\'s ears; resulting in an unavoidable buzzing. This was because the accelerating bullet created large shockwaves against the atmosphere as well.
One could fathom Mogensha\'s speedy improvement; at least, he couldn\'t fire that bullet in the past.
Only, before the screaming bullet struck the cultivation tank, one could clearly observe an unexplainable ripple occuring 10 centimetres away from the cultivation tank. Following the bullet puncturing through that ripple, it finally struck the transparent glass tank.
Yet strangely, though the bullet created a thumping ring upon impact, the transparent glass remained utterly fine.
What Sheyan and rest didn\'t know was, during previous experiments, the vicious nature of test subjects due to the dinosaur gene had directly led to many scenarios of creatures breaking the tanks. Although those terribly menacing creatures would perish after minutes from leaving their cultivation tanks, those few minutes of infrastructure destruction were still an exceedingly big headache.
After painstaking evaluations, the cultivation tanks were modelled with the theme of being an unbreakable prison. It was no wonder Mogensha\'s first shot couldn\'t penetrate through.
At this moment, Zi keenly grasped a vital point. Her long hair fluttered up as she released a palm towards the flesh blender!
A transparent \'Force Collision Wall\' swiftly congealed in mid-air and rumbled in like a sudden airstrike.
After a piercing boom, that flesh blender collapsed over and spilled all its thick, mangled flesh contents onto the ground. A blood stench that could induce vomiting instantly pervaded into the air.
Zi\'s attack was truly a drastic measure; quick witted and decisive, she was indeed worthy of going up against Zeus.
Meanwhile, Hammond also noticed them and spun around. His pupils instantly shrunk as he cried out, and immediately pulled down a red armrest by the side of his control desk. Then, he punched down onto a red button!
Instantaneously, sirens pierced the air as a computer generated voice announced out.
