I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 293: Chapter 275: Talent Recycling Station, Karsas_2

As soon as the talent was recovered, the energy conflict within the body disappeared, and Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

"I’m fine now, and next, it’s your turn to be doomed."

Qin Tian rubbed his hands, just as he was about to start a killing spree, suddenly, the sensation of a Soul Seal was rapidly fading.

That is... Dr. Karl

Not good!

Qin Tian’s expression changed.

...

Two minutes earlier

"Beep beep beep"

An ear-piercing alarm sounded inside the laboratory.

"Empire starship attack, everyone get ready for battle!"

What, the Empire starship is coming!

All the experimenters’ faces changed dramatically, panic and fear surged into their hearts.

They knew very well that once the Empire learned of the experiments they had conducted, they would face harsh judgment.

Dr. Karl’s eyes flashed, the Empire starship indeed came.

Just as well, he had been dissatisfied with the Hundred Hunt Star Thieves’ makeshift experimental environment for a long time, if he could enter the Empire’s research institute, leveraging the Empire’s vast resources for experiments, even at the cost of personal freedom, he would be willing.

Moreover, if he could establish a foothold within the Empire’s research institute, it would be a good thing for his master.

The status, resources, and power possessed by a top scientist could even rival those of the military or high officials in other fields.

Dr. Karl walked to the central control panel, closed the laboratory door, then turned to the experimenters and said:

"With the Empire starship’s arrival, the Hundred Hunt Star Thieves are doomed, but we as researchers have some leeway to retreat. Immediately clean up the lab and back up all data, perhaps this data can save our lives."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the experimenters seemed to have grasped a lifeline and swiftly followed Dr. Karl’s instructions.

Dr. Karl watched the bustling scene and couldn’t help but nod slightly.

In fact, he had long since backed up all the information and data, but to make his defection appear more reasonable, he arranged it like this.

"Dr. Karl."

Just then, a female researcher approached and whispered:

"Are you planning to betray the leader and join the Empire?"

Dr. Karl frowned and said in a low voice:

"What do you mean betraying? The leader and I are in a cooperative relationship, there is no..."

Splurt!

Before he could finish, Dr. Karl’s head had separated from his body, his bulging eyes filled with deep shock.

Blood spurted out.

The blood-soaked and brutal scene stunned all the other researchers, each standing motionless in place.

"Anyone who betrays the leader must die!"

The once meek female researcher’s face now turned icy cold, gripping a silver scalpel with light yellow spiritual energy swirling around its blade, her distinct pupils shimmering with murderous intent.

Swish swish swish swish

The scalpel traced a sharp silver arc in the air, moving so fast it was nearly impossible to discern its trajectory.

In the next second —

All the researchers’ movements suddenly froze, their pupils slightly constricted, and an extremely thin blood line appeared quietly on their throats.

The blood line slowly expanded, and then —

"Shhh—!"

Blood burst out like a fountain, splattering onto the white walls and delicate instruments, painting a brutal picture of crimson in the laboratory.

The female researcher retrieved the scalpel unemotionally, blood droplets dripping from its blade leaving tiny dark marks on the ground. Her gaze was cold, as if the massacre was just a trivial matter of dusting.

At that moment, the female researcher’s nerves suddenly tightened, a cold murderous intent like a venomous snake struck from behind.

She spun around fiercely, her pupils swiftly constricting —

A stern-looking man had appeared behind her at some point, close enough to feel his breath. His eyes were as sharp as blades, the chilling murderous intent nearly tangible.

"You..."

Her voice had barely fallen —

Bam!

The man’s fist drilled through the air like a meteor, instantly penetrating her chest, flesh bursting, bones shattering, her body blown open with sheer force into a bloody hole.

The female researcher lowered her head, staring in disbelief at the massive hole in her chest, as blood gushed down like a waterfall.

Her lips trembled, as if trying to speak, but ultimately her eyes quickly dimmed, her body collapsing heavily like a severed marionette.

The man slowly withdrew his fist, shaking off the bloodstains, then fixed his gaze on the corpse on the ground.

Dr. Karl’s deformed head had been severed from his body, his wide-open eyes still frozen in disbelief.

Seeing this, Qin Tian’s fists clenched with a loud crack, burning with rage.

Dr. Karl was someone he greatly valued, his importance no less than Li Qi or Feng Mochuan, the two first-generation Night Demons.

According to his plan, after the mission ended, he intended to mass-produce the Youth Potion developed by Dr. Karl, thereby creating great wealth. Besides, Dr. Karl’s other creations, the Superman Potion, also held promising potential.

Furthermore, Dr. Karl could take this opportunity to infiltrate the Empire’s biological research institute, where he might develop more valuable scientific results in the future, bringing even greater benefits.

Yet, it was all destroyed by this woman standing before him.

He hadn’t anticipated the leader of the Hundred Hunt Star Thieves to have planted a spy beside Dr. Karl, and so decisively executed him by chopping off his head, leaving no chance for treatment or rectification.

What a shame.

Qin Tian sighed deeply, preparing to leave and continue slaughtering the Star Thieves.

However —

Buzz!

A strange psychic disturbance suddenly spread throughout the laboratory, the air seemingly frozen in an instant.

Qin Tian looked up abruptly, his pupils constricting suddenly.
