Chapter 55: I Thought There Would Be Some, But I Didn't Expect This Many!

“Meow meow~ （Is this the underground laboratory? It really does have that research vibe. ）” Li Li looked around vigilantly after getting up from the ground.

He let out a sigh of relief when he found no zombies nearby.

The lab personnel did a good job of controlling this place, not letting zombies in. That meant as long as they successfully found the Evolutionary Potion, they could leave safely.

“Gulu gulu~ （How about it, Brother Cat? Where should we go now? ）” Matthew asked, looking at the pale lights. Now that they had arrived at the laboratory, where should they go to find the Evolutionary Potion?

“Meow meow~ （What else is there to say? Of course, we’re going to find the Evolutionary Potion. ）” Li Li replied and jumped over the counter, walking towards the long corridor ahead.

This underground laboratory was quite large. He hadn’t seen any place here suitable for storing the Evolutionary Potion, which meant it must be in a room further ahead.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Gulu gulu~ （Brother Cat, shouldn’t we be careful? What if zombies rush out? ）” Seeing Li Li leisurely poking his head around, Matthew said nervously.

“Meow meow~ （It’s fine, this place is very safe. If there really were zombies, the commotion we made when we rushed in would have attracted them. ）”

“Meow meow~ （And since no zombies have come running yet, it means there are no zombies in this laboratory. ）” Li Li said, his paws patting the door as his big head sniffed the air, searching for the location of the Evolutionary Potion.

Judging from the current situation in the laboratory, the researchers here must have immediately fled after learning about the zombie outbreak in the city.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain why the place was empty and many doors were left open.

“Gulu gulu~ （Really? Brother Cat, you’re so smart. ）” Matthew couldn’t help but admire Li Li.

“Meow meow~ （Of course. ）” Li Li replied, pushing open the door in front of him with his paw.

A funnel-like device appeared before him. He saw drops of green liquid flowing down the pipes into a glass jar at the bottom.

Li Li immediately realized that this was the Evolutionary Potion they were looking for.

However, he hadn’t expected it to be in such a large jar. He initially thought it would be in small test tubes.

“Gulu gulu~ （Brother Cat, you don’t think this is what we’re looking for, do you? ）” Matthew asked, staring at the large glass jar that was several times his height.

“Meow meow~ （From what we’ve seen, it should be this. After all, we haven’t seen it in any other rooms. ）” Li Li nodded his big head and said, “Meow meow~ （But now there’s a big problem: how do we take it away? It’s definitely not safe to consume it here. ）”

Although the entire laboratory was quiet now, there was no telling what the situation was like outside.

After all, when they came in, they saw that boss being besieged.

Moreover, the human teams and players seemed quite strong. Who knows what kind of destructive things they might pull out to k*ll that boss?

What if they were consuming the Evolutionary Potion here and bumped into those guys? With the Forest Elf’s slow casting speed, they would d*e a thousand deaths.

Upon hearing this, Matthew patted his chest and guaranteed, “Gulu gulu~ （This is easy to solve. I can put it in my Spatial Backpack. ）”

“Gulu gulu~ （But how do we get it out? ）”

The large glass jar was still inside the machine, and he had no idea how to operate the machine. How could he get the jar out?

“Meow meow~ （Isn’t that simple? If we can’t take it out, can’t we go in? ）” Li Li looked at Matthew and said, “Meow meow~ （You can directly use magic to pass through the glass cover and collect it. ）”

“Gulu gulu~ （That makes sense. ）” Matthew’s eyes lit up. Brother Cat was indeed quick-witted.

“Meow meow~ （Be quick, we can’t delay. Otherwise, it won’t be good if those guys outside break in. ）” Li Li urged.

“Gulu gulu~ （Oh, oh, oh. ）” Matthew replied and immediately did as Li Li instructed.

The huge glass jar was directly stored away, leaving only the empty glass pipes with green liquid still dripping inside. Judging by the dripping speed, it would probably take a long time to fill the jar again.

“Meow meow~ （Come on, let’s get out of here. ）” Li Li urged, seeing that Matthew had succeeded. Since they had obtained the Evolutionary Potion, there was no need to stay here any longer.

“Gulu gulu~ （Okay. ）” Matthew replied, jumping onto Li Li’s back. Li Li then rushed towards the entrance they came from.

When they exited the laboratory, they discovered that zombies had completely crammed the doorway, like sardines in a can.

Faced with this situation, Li Li stepped on the shoulders of the zombies and charged towards the outside.

The zombies crammed together roared frantically, opening their mouths and stretching their heads, trying to bite Li Li.

But their limbs were pinned down by their companions, and as soon as their heads stretched out, their companions squeezed them back in.

The zombies in the outer hall heard the commotion and charged over again, making the corridor even more crowded.

“Meow meow~ （Do these guys need to squeeze in so desperately? Aren’t there other humans outside? They should rush out! ）” Li Li complained as he stepped on the heads of the zombies. These incoming zombies were like a rolling cylinder, and whenever he managed to climb up, they would roll down and push him back to his original position.

“Gulu gulu~” Hearing this, Matthew on his back immediately chanted a spell.

Instantly, Li Li felt his entire body lighten.

He stepped on the heads of the zombies and rushed to the first floor in a flash. “Meow meow~ （Quickly use the Invisibility Spell, we’re about to leave the company. ）”

Seeing the shattered first floor, Li Li said.

Good heavens, how intense was the battle here? Although the first floor of the building was somewhat damaged before they entered the laboratory, at least the framework was still there. Now, when they came back out……

The entire entrance of the building looked like it had been hit by a gas explosion.

“Gulu gulu~” Matthew, sitting on Li Li’s back, waved his staff again with a pale face.

The figures of the cat and the elf disappeared on the spot.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

“Boom, boom, boom!”

At the razed warehouse, the fierce battle continued.

The over ten-meter-tall giant zombie roared towards the sky, swinging its fists and sending the steel mech flying.
