"Brother Bai!"
Amidst everyone's screams, Bai Yuchen's body flew backward into the laboratory like a falling meteor from the safety corridor. Scarlet blood splattered in the air, forming a glaring red trail on the snow-white tiles.
At the back of the group, Xi Jiu, who was providing cover, narrowed his eyes and swiftly rushed toward Bai Yuchen, catching him in his arms.
"Damn..." Bai Yuchen's face turned pale with pain, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood, "Brother Jiu... I—I almost got killed... some bastard ambushed me in the safety corridor!"
Ruan Qi walked over, grabbed his hand, and checked his pulse.
"You've suffered some minor internal injuries, take this medicine."
Bai Yuchen swallowed the small pill Ruan Qi handed him. Seeing he was fine, Xi Jiu pushed him off and gazed coldly at the open door of the safety corridor.
The slow and heavy footsteps could be faintly heard from within the safety corridor.
