Chapter 483: Completely Fine


    The smell of something acrid burnt in their throats just as they neared Lyca''s quarters.


    "Sir, it seems that the explosion came from thisb."


    Xu Ke heard someone say. "Tell me something, I don''t already know!" Xu Ke hissed. "You take off your mask!" he pointed at the man who spoke.


    "But sir."


    "Do you want to die!?"


    The soldier stared at him. He doesn''t want to die, and that is exactly why he didn''t want to remove his mask. "Sir, I don''t think "


    "You "Just as Xu Ke was about to attack the man with his knife, the man turned around and tried to run away from him. Sadly for him, Xu Ke didn''t just bring a knife. XU Ke didn''t hesitate to shoot the man at the back of his head.


    "Now! Anyone else wanted to die?" He asked, a smug smirk was hidden beneath his mask. "Now! Take off your mask!"


    Without hesitation, the soldier took off his mask and, just as expected, he started to cough. This time, the man died in a few seconds without having the time to put his mask back on. This mad, Xu Ke frowned. It seems that the surrounding poison is getting stronger.


    He wanted to take off his mask and see if it would affect him despite his internal energy but decided against it when he thought that this must be Lyca''s way of killing herself and dragging him down to hell.


    That woman


    He needed to find her body as soon as possible.


    "Continue walking inside!" Xu Ke said.


    "Sir, the door is still intact. The green gas inside is dense. There is a possibility that once we open it, it would immediately kill us."


    Xu Ke didn''t say anything. He stared at the ss that is separating them from the thick gas inside as he wondered why the ss didn''t break.


    If the explosion happened inside, the ss should have.


    It is not inside theb!


    Xu Ke lifted his head and stared at the ceiling. The explosion happened in the venttion system. But how?


    How the hell did Lyca manage to cause such an explosion?


    "Sir what are we going to do now?"


    "Open the door. Brace yourselves, the poison is thicker and more potent inside." Xu Ke finally made the decision to go inside. As long as they didn''t take off their mask, they should be safe, right? "Password is  54215796352415963574830533674000ssfw255." If Lyca would hear him say the password, she would have cursed inwardly.


    Who has the time to memorize such a long password?


    The sound of the automatic door being opened made everyone alert. They then watched as the thick ss inside rush out, slowly filling the way. When Xu Ke notice that the gas is not affecting him, he smirked and started walking inside.


    That was when he heard his people started coughing.


    He turned his head and saw his men on the floor, trying their best to breathe. Seconds passed and almost all of them were already passed out on the floor. Hell, he wasn''t even sure if they are really dead or just fainted because of their mask.


    Sadly, he had no time to investigate. The fact that he wasn''t affected only meant that Lyca is not affected too. But that only applies if she found a mask to protect herself.


    Xu Ke didn''t put any masks inside theb. It would be impossible for her to get one inside. He slowly walked inside and eyed the two doors. One is Lyca''sb, while the other is Lyca''s room.


    Without having second thoughts, Xu Ke walked inside Lyca''s room. Just like the other part of this side of the facility, Lyca''s room was already full of thick greenish gas. His eyes zeroed in on her empty bed. The sight of it immediately made him infuriated.


    Seeing Lyca dead would have immediately made her feel better!


    He was about to walk inside theb when he felt a sudden tingling sensation in his eyes. After letting out a few curses, Xu Ke decided not to go inside theb, as he knew that this time the gas would affect him.


    "Looking for me?"


    It was as if Xu Ke saw a ghost when he saw Lyca walked out of theb without a mask.


    "You  " The fact that the gasses don''t affect her was incredible enough! Almost immediately, his eyes shone as he stared at Lyca, as if he was staring at the best specimen in this world. "Lyca I am so d that you are safe!" He immediately changed his tone as he tried to approach her.


    But the moment he took a single step towards her, Lyca went inside theb.


    "What are you doing?" Xu Ke asked. "This ce is dangerous. We need to leave here."


    Lyca only snorted. "Why would I leave? I am perfectly safe here."It turns out that those creatures are the key if making her immune to the gas that she created herself.


    During her scuffle with Xu Ke earlier, Lyca purposely hurt herself, making sure that stters of her blood would get into the creatures on the floor. And just as she expected, the creatures reacted to her blood and started reproducing then eating their infants until they exploded and die.


    The reason for the explosion is actually because they can''t survive without Lyca''s blood.


    The creature tried to get out of the ce in an attempt to find blood but the ce was sealed except for the venttion. And that was how they got into it.


    The explosion that followed was pretty self-exnatory. Even Xu Ke had seen it before. The difference is that the creature exploded outside of the tube.


    "Lyca what are you doing?" Xu Ke asked. Until now, he was still confused about how this woman managed to survive in a highly poisonous environment like this. But he was nning to find out soon once he gets her and erased her memories! "Come let me take you out of this ce." He tried to extend his hand inside theb only to feel his skin turned hot. The air inside had a tinge of acid. And it was hurting his skin.


    But it seemed that Lyca waspletely fine?
