Strike Back, Proud Goddess! Novel

“Well…” Before Qiao Liang finished, the female agent who was talking to Qiao Liang suddenly came over and showed him her cellphone. “Chris, I found this.”

Qiao Liang took a look at the cellphone screen and turned to walk out. He said as he walked out, “Blow this place up!”

That girl hurriedly followed Qiao Liang, but Qiao Liang suddenly turned around and looked at her after walking for several steps. He asked, “Alice, what kind of experiment base is here?”

“Human-body research. As far as I know, they started this research more than twenty years ago, when the technology was not developed enough, so they used a special potion to change the human constitution. It’s said that the potion was only one bottle and attracted many gangsters’ attentions, so the gangsters began to hunt the researcher, and the latter injected the potion into a man’s body before he was killed. After that, the man disappeared and no one can find him, so they don’t know whether their research succeeded or not. This lab was probably re-opened a decade ago.” Alice said as she walked out with him.

Qiao Liang frowned. “Can that potion really change the human constitution?”

Alice shook her head. “Not necessarily. I think it depends on the individual. Someone may become superman after being injected with that potion, whereas someone becomes feeble, or there is also another possibility that a weak person becomes strong with the help of the potion… But… no one has seen that experiment object. Perhaps he has died.”

Qiao Liang frowned. It had been quite a while before he looked back at Alice. “Why did they inject this potion into a stranger’s body before they escaped? What’s in it for them? They won’t get any benefit at all, will they?””

“Chris, governments may want perfect killing weapons, but for scientists, the greatest achievement is the success of their experiments. That means everything to them.” Alice took a look at Qiao Liang, then at the researchers who had been controlled by the agents and the people contained in huge test tubes, and said seriously, “These people aren’t human beings but just experiment objects in the researchers’ eyes. They are only interested in their research and care about nothing else.”

Qiao Liang looked at the people in the test tubes. Suddenly, he stopped in front of one of the test tubes. He drew close and stared at the strange face in it. Then he suddenly scowled and kicked the test tube; it broke and the man in it flowed out with the liquid in the test tube. Qiao Liang hurriedly carried the dying man in his arms, touched his face and felt his pulse. After making sure his pulse was still there, he began to compress his chest…

Five minutes later, in the others’ surprised gaze, Qiao Liang finally stopped. He stood up and looked down at the man, sweat dripping from his head. Then he squatted down and suddenly tore off a skin mask from his face. The others all gaped when they saw the man’s real face. Alice shouted. “Oh my god! He’s Wilson!”

The man who had been following Qiao Liang froze. Qiao Liang immediately carried Lu Li who was dying and coldly said, “Kill these researchers! Spare no one’s life!”

He didn’t need this kind of technology, nor would he let any other person get it!

Qiao Liang couldn’t imagine if he hadn’t noticed the man in this test tube looked a bit familiar to him, this place would have been blown up as ordered by him. Then everyone here, including Lu Li, would be killed!

Damn it!

Qiao Liang walked out carrying Lu Li. The man following him took a look at Qiao Liang and said, “Let me carry him.”

Qiao Liang coldly stared at that man, elbowed him away and continued to walk. The man looked at his back and closed his eyes with sadness. Qiao Liang was blaming her.

Qiao Liang who had never blamed her hated her now.

Yes, she was to blame. Damn her stupid belief! Damn the stupid job! The agency she had been serving almost killed the man she most loved!

Qiao Liang carried Lu Li up to the ground and yelled. “Give him a nutrient infusion! Suture his wounds! And his hands and feet…”

Finding that Lu Li’s hamstring had been cut off, Qiao Liang clenched his hands hard and went speechless. It had been quite a while before he growled, “Tell No.3 Base to prepare the operations for Lu Li, and find Luo Feng right away!”

Lu Li was injured too seriously. Except for Luo Feng, no one could save him. He might have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, and he might not even be able to hold a pen!

He swore he must avenge Lu Li!

Alice nodded. “I’ve contacted Luo Feng. He happens to be traveling in Mexico and he will soon arrive here in a helicopter.”

As soon as they left, with loud thuds, the abandoned factory suddenly shook and was then blown up.

When Tang Xi received the call from Qiao Liang, she happened to reach the capital. Hearing Qiao Liang’s sad and regretful voice, she felt as if her heart was clenched by a giant hand. Having no idea how to comfort him, she could only say gently, “He will be fine.”

Qiao Liang fell into silence. Tang Xi pursed her lips and called to him, “Ah Liang…”

It had been quite a while before Qiao Liang said in a low voice, “Xixi, I won’t allow anything bad to happen to you.” He paused and went on, “And, thank you.”

If she hadn’t told him Lu Li was still in Mexico, he might have gone to the US. With one day more, Lu Li might have been suffocated in the test tube.

Tang Xi took a deep breath and said, “You don’t have to thank me. Besides… you found that place because of Chu Ling and it was you who found Lu Li.”

Qiao Liang sitting in the corridor gazed at the light in the operating room, and prayed Lu Li could be alright. He said hoarsely, “If I hadn’t found Lu Li… I would have had that factory blown up. Then what would have happened? Would Lu Li have died?”

It hurt Tang Xi to hear him speak like this. She whispered, “But he is alive now.”
