Chu Changqing's Power
Drip—drip...
Drops of water seeped from the old faucet, landing on the bathroom floor and echoing in the dull, narrow room.
The crimson light from the neon sign outside the window filtered through the curtains, illuminating the dim room and stretching Chu Changqing's shadow in the wheelchair like mottled branches...
He kept his head lowered, his eyes shimmering with a faint cyan glow that looked like translucent emeralds in the darkness. Pitch-black strokes of ink and brush branded his joints, making him look like a powerless puppet.
The clock on the wall ticked by, minute by minute. Chu Changqing glanced at the time and spoke slowly,
"I need to use the bathroom."
"Again?" A university student sitting in the corner frowned. "Didn't you just go half an hour ago?"
"I have claustrophobia. It's too dark and cramped in here, and with the windows closed, I get nervous."
"..."
The two university students exchanged a glance, seemingly hesitant.
"If I can't hold it in later, you'd better be prepared to clean me up," Chu Changqing added flatly.
"..."
The two university students imagined the scene and immediately felt disgusted. In the end, they nodded.
"Go, but don't try any tricks."
As one of the university students raised a hand, the ink and brush Chancellor Han had left inside Chu Changqing loosened slightly, giving Chu Changqing enough room to barely move.
Chu Changqing pushed against the armrests of his wheelchair with great difficulty, stumbling to his feet. Leaning on the foot of the bed and the wall, he inched toward the bathroom.
The bathroom in this guest house was enclosed by frosted glass. Even from the room, one could vaguely see the outline of the person inside through the frosted glass. At this moment, the two university students were staring intently at the shadow staggering into the bathroom, their eyes full of vigilance.
Chu Changqing first used the toilet, then raised his hand to flush. Under the watchful eyes of the two outside, he slowly moved to the sink.
Drops of water were slowly seeping from the faucet, and in the corner behind it, a small spider web drifted silently.
On the web lay a spider the size of a fingernail, sprawled on its back as if it were already dead. Around it, tiny spider eggs glowing with a faint cyan light were gently quivering.
Chu Changqing's eyes narrowed slightly.
He turned on the faucet, and the sound of rushing water instantly filled the room. However, Chu Changqing didn't wash his hands. Instead, using the noise as cover, he gently sliced open the pad of his pinky finger and touched his fingertip, smeared with a minuscule amount of blood, to the spider eggs.
A wisp of faint cyan light separated from his blood and drilled directly into the eggs.
A faint glow flickered in Chu Changqing's eyes as if he were analyzing something. The DNA structure within the cells of the eggs was scrambled by some hand of God in this moment, rapidly shattering and restructuring!
In the next second, the eggs began to tremble violently!
...
"Are you saying they live right upstairs from us?"
At the staircase of the guest house, Yang Xiao, who had just rushed back, looked at the key to Room 301 in his hand with a fascinating expression.
"That's right." Lu Xun nodded. "I thought they would be more cautious, hiding Chu Changqing in a bridge underpass or even taking over a residential house... I never expected them to actually check into a guest house. That saves us a lot of trouble."
"They probably never imagined that the owner of this guest house is Dr. Lu's maternal uncle," Su Zhiwei chuckled softly.
"So, what do we do next?"
"I've already confirmed it with my maternal uncle. There are only two university students with Chu Changqing. With the three of us joining forces, taking Chu Changqing from them won't be difficult... The problem is that we are too close to the Meeting Immortal Guest House. We must minimize the commotion of our attack as much as possible, or we'll alert Bureau 749 and the Emperor's people."
Su Zhiwei pondered for a moment.
"Those two university students are only in the Third Tier. As long as we strike fast enough, they most likely won't have time to react."
"Dr. Su has fought those two before, so you should be very familiar with them. Dr. Su will lead the charge this time." Lu Xun turned to look at Yang Xiao. "I'll be responsible for moving Chu Changqing later. Yang Xiao, you'll be in charge of using your ability to reinforce the windows and walls. Don't let them break anything and make a commotion."
"No problem."
The three quickly finalized their tactics and walked silently up the stairs to the third floor...
The entire third floor was dead silent. The sunlight from outside couldn't reach the corridor, leaving only two dim lights to barely illuminate the area. Between the peeling wallpaper, two doors stood silently.
The three of them walked to the door of Room 301, exchanged a glance, and nodded slightly.
Yang Xiao placed his hand over the door lock. Instead of using the key to open the door, he directly manipulated the metal structure within the lock core, turning it slowly... Not only was there no sound of a key being inserted, but the door also unlocked incredibly fast.
"Go!!"
The moment Yang Xiao unlocked the door, he shouted. Almost simultaneously, Su Zhiwei's figure shot directly into Room 301 like a bolt of white lightning!
But the next moment, Su Zhiwei froze in place.
As the door fully opened, Lu Xun and Yang Xiao, who were preparing to rush in right behind her, also stood frozen like statues when they saw the scene before them...
Drip—drip...
The faint sound of dripping water echoed in the room.
The curtains, dyed deep red by the neon lights, fluttered silently. Countless spider webs covered nearly every corner of the room, making it look as eerie and terrifying as a spider demon's lair. In the center of the dense webs, two figures were wrapped in pale cocoons, swinging silently from the ceiling...
On the ceiling, walls, and floor of the room, bizarre spiders turned around simultaneously. Their bodies were fully the size of adult men, covered in white markings. Their legs were as sharp and slender as a praying mantis's scythes, and on their heads grew eighteen eyes, each one as pitch-black as ink.
The creatures before them were definitely not native species to Earth. They looked more like xenomorphs from outer space in a movie, making one's blood run cold with just a single glance!
Even Su Zhiwei at the forefront couldn't help but take half a step back, her expression incredibly ugly.
"This is..."
"The Calamity Director Chen mentioned? Has the Calamity already invaded??"
"No, these creatures seem a bit different from the Calamity... Damn it, what the hell are these things??"
Just then, a slightly surprised voice sounded from behind the dense spider webs.
"Lu Xun?"
Lu Xun felt the voice was somewhat familiar. He frowned and looked in that direction, only to see all the giant spiders crawling along the webs toward it, using their sharp legs to slice open a gap in the thick webbing.
In the next second, a figure in a wheelchair slowly moved forward from the crimson light.
Long hair fluttered in the breeze from the window, and a pair of faint cyan eyes stared at the three people at the door, seemingly full of surprise... He emerged just like that, surrounded by ferocious spiders, revealing a familiar face to the three of them.
The moment he saw the person, Lu Xun spoke in disbelief,
"Chu Changqing???"
