On the other side, Alan looked at Dr. Dale and said solemnly, "What exactly are you researching here?"
Dr. Dale sneered, "Is this something you should be asking about? A bunch of lowly wretches!"
Alan replied, "I can tolerate your mockery, but don't forget that Rhine Corporation and the Android Alliance have signed an agreement. I have already activated the recorder. Everything you say, and everything in this place will be recorded."
"Agreement? Alliance? Recording?"
Dr. Dale paused for a moment, then put his hands in his pockets and burst into laughter, his laughter growing louder and more rampant.
"Are you kidding me?" Dr. Dale wagged his finger at Alan. "Your group from the slums, banding together and calling yourselves an alliance, thinks you can stand on equal footing with Rhine Corporation? Ridiculous!"
As he spoke, Dr. Dale paced forward.
"That so-called agreement was merely to keep you guys in line, in the slums, hunting mutated creatures, and guarding the area outside the barricades."
"Talking to you about ecological chain hunting and control, and food chain balance, a fool like you probably wouldn't understand anyway. You're just tools. Without the existence of the slums, the affluent districts can remain peaceful. If you wretches don't hunt the mutated creatures, do you expect us to?"
"So, you're actually talking to me about the Android Alliance? You think you can threaten me with that? Has your brain malfunctioned?"
"As for what happens here, you plan to record it?" Dr. Dale shrugged indifferently and gestured to Alan, "You can record it however you like. However, are you sure you can still leave here?"
*Snap, snap...*
As soon as Dr. Dale finished speaking, the weapons on the surrounding armed robots whirred to life and aimed at Alan and his companions.
Alan's expression turned serious, and everyone immediately entered combat mode, warily watching the front.
Bai Ye finally withdrew his gaze from his surroundings and looked in Dr. Dale's direction.
"No need to be nervous," Bai Ye said. "Just a pile of scrap metal."
*Snap!*
Bai Ye snapped his fingers casually.
In the next instant, electric arcs suddenly flickered across the bodies of the armed robots, emitting crackling sounds, and then one by one, the armed robots exploded, erupting in flames and black smoke.
With a single blow, all the armed robots, just as Bai Ye said, were reduced to scrap metal.
Dr. Dale's face immediately showed surprise.
Bai Ye, however, curled his lips, feigning disdain.
The ground-based armed robots were somewhat more troublesome, as it required an attack to use the current to disrupt the robots' circuit boards.
However, the ground and walls of the laboratory were inlaid with metal plates, and the surrounding instruments were also metallic. There were simply too many conductive objects.
In such an environment, Bai Ye could casually stomp his foot, and the current would flow along the metal plates on the ground into the robots, completely destroying them.
However, Dr. Dale quickly recovered from his surprise.
It was just the armed robots that were destroyed; he still had the mutant crystal people!
"Kill them! Kill them all!" Dr. Dale roared ferociously. "They absolutely cannot be allowed to leave here."
The mutant crystal people indeed obeyed. Upon receiving the order, they immediately surged forward.
Alan and the others wanted to fight, but Bai Ye stopped them with a hand gesture.
"You guys fall back," Bai Ye said. "Leave them to me."
Compared to Dr. Dale, Bai Ye was more concerned about Yimi hiding in the shadows.
However, since the other party refused to reveal themselves, Bai Ye observed for a while but couldn't pinpoint their location.
Since that was the case, he would first deal with the immediate threat.
Anyway, the second mission in the forbidden zone was to eliminate Dr. Dale, so he might as well claim the reward for the forbidden zone mission first.
Bai Ye thought as he took a step forward.
Having come this far, there was absolutely no need to hide his strength, but rather to...
Finish it quickly!
"Thunder Beast!" Thunder Beast (releases a giant beast-shaped lightning with physical attack effects, targeting ground attacks and defenses)
*Zzzzt!*
As Bai Ye let out a low cry, a large amount of current surged from his body, dancing wildly and expanding.
Soon, the current condensed, forming a colossal thunder beast that descended towards the ground.
*Boom!*
Upon landing, the thunder beast raised its massive claws and slammed them down onto the ground.
Amidst the rumbling, a large amount of current exploded, and the ground let out a deafening roar, directly being pulverized by the thunder beast's impact.
The current that splashed forward struck the bodies of several crystal people, instantly blasting them away, their crystals cracking.
After one strike, the thunder beast did not stop but charged forward.
Its massive body slammed into the crystal people ahead, sending them tumbling.
At the same time...
Bai Ye reached out his hand, and behind him, a vast expanse of golden light screen appeared.
Gate of Babylon!
On the golden light screen, golden portals continuously appeared, and in the center of these golden portals were various weapons.
In the next instant, Bai Ye swung his raised arm forward!
The weapons within the golden portals immediately shot forward.
*Boom, boom, boom!*
Weapons struck the ground, and continuous booming explosions resounded.
The entire laboratory trembled violently, and as it shook, the metal plates on the ceiling continuously cracked open, showering countless stone fragments downwards.
The ground began to shatter and crack, revealing deep pits.
After a moment, the swirling dust dispersed, revealing a scene of devastation.
A giant thunder beast stood there, with two crystal people beneath its feet, and currents crackling from its body.
The surrounding ground had completely collapsed, and scattered crystals were everywhere.
Some crystal people were impaled by spears and hung on the walls, others had their heads severed and lay on the ground.
Some crystal people's bodies were ripped apart as their crystals shattered, turning into a pile of mangled remains.
Some crystal people were not yet dead and were still struggling, crawling forward, as if seeking a sliver of survival.
But at this moment...
The colossal thunder beast raised its foot and stomped down forcefully on that crystal person.
*Snap.*
The crystal person's body disintegrated, and countless shattered crystal fragments exploded, splashing a large amount of bright red blood onto the glass wall beside them.
Dr. Dale's spirit jolted. Seeing the blood suddenly appear on the glass wall, he was quickly enveloped by fear.
