6 Crazy Battle

Zeras slowly moved forward toward the direction where the red dot indicated. He could see there were no steps or elevators, and all he passed through were long white corridors, with a few turns and corners.

The labs were arranged next to each other with the Off-limits area at the far end of the map.

Looking at the map, he could immediately tell it was just a small base, with the Off-limits area taking up almost all the space on the map.

He slowly arrived in front of a lab door which had the word "4C" written at the top.

Zeras knocked thrice on the door but hearing no reply, immediately pushed open the door as he entered the place.

The intense ray of light made him zip his eyes into a close as they slowly regulated to the intensity.

Looking around the small lab, he noticed three scientists who were chatting leisurely with each other and didn't even bother to look at him at all, as if they already knew he was coming.

Two were men and they stood together chatting while the last one was a lady who sat at the far end of the lab operating a computer, her position facing against the wall, while her back was facing all of them.

A plan was formulated in his mind as he looked around the office and then at the charts placed on the walls.

They were different holograms of beasts' physiology, incredibly strange beasts that were like the fusion of different beasts or some kind of strange mutation.

The lab was the one responsible for experimenting on beasts and by the looks of it, he could already guess what was in the Off-limits area closer to the lab.

Zeras slowly walked forward towards the surgical bed and what he saw made him want to vomit out his stomach.

In front of him was a cat of about a meter in height, its body laid limply on the bed no doubt already dead.

But what made Zeras shocked was its skin. It wasn't the usual fur skin, but dark red scales grew out of its body enveloping its entire body amidst the oozing blood.

Its claws were three times larger than its head, gleaming with steel-like hardness while its tail was like that of a scorpion.

It seems the cat couldn't complete its mutation making Zeras wonder what kind of madness would be created if it completes the transformation.

Touching the scales, Zera's eyes narrowed

'The scales, they were about three times harder, just like the hardness of a metal.'

It's like they were trying to create some type of beast that could be used for war as with increased defense and three times more powerful claws, that was the only thing that he thought would make sense.

'Just what was the base? What are they trying to achieve.'

"Hey, You hear me?" A voice echoed out to Zeras making him quickly withdraw his hands from the cat.

It seems he had been distracted a little and didn't even hear one of the scientists calling him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Zeras said bowing to the man as he carried the cat into the bag and slowly buttoned it up.

"Hey, what's wrong with you." the man asked as he placed one of his hands on Zera's shoulder before forcefully turning him around.

"I called you thrice, E-grade, and you ignored my call. It seems you've been really good a little and felt you're finally something too, huh..." the man said as he dragged Zeras by his cuffs with a mocking look on his face.

The others couldn't care less as they only chuckled a little.

They knew Paul's character. It seems the repeated failures already cast a shadow in his heart as there was a limit to the number of failures a scientist like him could make before having his authority decreased.

So he needed something to cast all his pain on and the poor guy showed up at the right time.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Zeras said bowing his head repeatedly as his hands slowly moved towards his pocket, something the scientist didn't take notice of.

"Oh, you're sorry. You can say you're sorry and you think everything becomes good, huh? It seems you've forgotten you're just an E-grade trash that can be disposed of tomorrow like nothing.

You don't have a space in this world trash." Paul said as he slammed an uppercut on the face that was repeatedly bowing down making the poor guy move backward as he fell on both knees using one of his hands to cover his nose in pain.

Paul slowly walked towards the guy as he thought of venting his anger on him.

"Don't kill him, Paul, you know it will affect your authority a lot."

The second scientist with long dark hair, Jake, said as he watched Paul moving towards Zeras but there was no sign of him trying to stop Paul at all and instead prepared himself for a great show.

"Don't worry, I won't kill him, just reminding him of his position in this world," Paul said crackling his fists in his palms with a sinister smile on his face.

Arriving before the crouching guy, he slowly stretched out his hands as he dragged his head up with his hair but what he saw in the second made his smile immediately vanish.

This wasn't the E-grade trash. It was a strange boy with blue eyes who also had a sinister smile on his face while killing intent shone clearly in those eyes.

"Goodbye..." that was the last word he heard as his sense screamed for him to retreat but before he could even move back, a blade light slashed with speed towards his neck as a thin line appeared in his neck in the next second before erupting into a bloody wave.

Jake's eyes widened seeing the wave of blood coming from his partner's neck as his hands immediately moved towards his lab gown bringing out a dark plasma gun from his hand and shooting towards Zeras.

A smile widened on Zera's face as his heart pumped loudly in his chest. Seeing the dark-haired scientist bringing out a gun, he immediately placed Paul's dead body in front of him using it as a cover.

"Vroom, vroom vroom..."

Three shots moved with speed towards Zeras but they only dug into Paul's body as Zeras immediately advanced with Paul's body as a cover.

"Activate Dash," Zeras screamed in his mind as his body blitzed forward with double his normal speed, making him cover the distance between him and Jake.

Arriving before the man, he threw Paul's body towards him pushing the man back and destabilizing him, but that opening was all Zeras needed.

"GNRH"

Zeras slashed forward with all the strength he could muster towards Jake.

Jake's eyes widened as the knife passed through his neck slashing it off in the next second.

Within 20 seconds, he already dispatched two of the scientists.

Anna, the female scientist, immediately turned back hearing the sounds of gunshots, as she stood there fear-stricken by the sight of Paul's dead body and Jake being killed almost immediately.

Getting rid of her fear, her hand immediately reached towards the red button on the desk about 50 centimeters away but just an inch away from it, a blade flew forward with speed as a hand soared into the air followed by a shrill scream.
