Only after they left did Ji Ruxue heave a sigh of relief. Even though she appeared cold on the outside, it was just that her clenched fists were drenched in sweat.

However, time was of the essence, and Ji Ruxue did not have the time to lament over it. She took out the test tube she brought along with her, took out some samples from her experiment, and collected his testing data.

Xiao Die had been expressionless the entire time, looking like a paralyzed young girl. However, she was still a bit curious, and after seeing Ji Ruxue finish gathering the data, she revealed a conflicted expression. She still asked, "Miss Ji …" How do you know all this? "

Indeed, even the people inside the First Smoke Branch didn't know about these experimental reports, let alone her, a person from an organization opposite to the First Smoke Sect.

After such a long period of time, Ji Ruxue had already let go of her past. When she brought it up, she was no longer afraid, but only deeply angry.

Ji Ru Xue put her hand into the pocket of her lab coat and raised her chin at the youth lying on the ground. "Because I am of the first generation, all the modifications he underwent came from my genes. Strictly speaking, he still has to call me mother."

Hearing this explanation, Xiao Die frowned even more. She couldn't forget what she saw when she first came in. The experimental subjects that came and went in their hands were no different from animal experiments.

Only now that the data had been recorded did Ji Ru Xue begin to size up the lying youth. He looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old and his body was skinny. He gave off the feeling of a weak young man.

A head of golden hair was spread out on the table. The long eyelashes were also slightly golden. Under the light of the operating lamp, the face was covered with a shadow. He looked even younger.

However, Ji Ru Xue silently sized him up. It wasn't because her heart was cold and unyielding, but because she felt a sense of intimacy when she found out that he was her own second generation.

However, Ji Ruxue already had a plan in her heart. She had already made up her mind long ago to remove the initial smoke from her roots. She could save a child, but could she also save everyone like this?

Back then, Ji Mufeng had acted out of the blue and saved everyone while leaving Ji Ruxue alone to continue to suffer. She did not blame him, and Ji Ruxue understood that under those circumstances, she could naturally save as many people as she wanted. But now that it was Ji Ruxue's turn, she did not want to leave anyone behind to suffer such torture.

Ji Ruxue had an indescribable emotion in her heart as she pushed aside the youth's hair. There was a touch of gentleness in her eyes.

"What are you doing?" The laboratory staff who had rushed back saw Ji Ru Xue's actions and asked doubtfully. After all, people who came to inspect the experiment before wouldn't touch the test article. This made him suspicious.

Ji Ru Xue didn't withdraw her hand. Instead, she extended her fingernail and used it to scratch the test subject's skin. The researchers then moved closer to observe its recovery.

The wound healed very quickly, leaving behind only a red scar. However, Ji Ru Xue didn't stop there. She pressed down on the wound again and viciously cut into it.

The scar that had just healed was torn apart again, but the recovery was not as quick as it was before. On the contrary, the wound was even worse, taking more than half the time to heal.

Ji Ru Xue sniggered. A layer of cold sweat broke out on the back of the researcher next to her. "Is this how you do your research?" she asked. Then when we fight in the future, will we expose our flaws to others and open our doors to the enemy? "

The severity of the smoke was something they could not imagine. As long as the higher-ups said something, they could decide their life and death, even if they were core researchers.

Ji Ru Xue just emphasized to them, "The great war is coming soon. I hope that when we need to use them, it will be a perfect work of art. Do you understand?"

When the surrounding people saw the madness and viciousness in Ji Ruxue's eyes, they couldn't help but shiver. It reminded them of the true owner of the initial smoke they saw a long time ago.

"Alright, now that we have reached this point, show me the prevention and control map. In two days, there will be a new batch of drugs coming from Z Country, and these will be given to you to study in secret."

It was not the first time they had studied medicine alone, so they naturally believed in Ji Ru Xue. Ji Ru Xue used the excuse that she wanted Xiao Die and Number Ten to stand by her side, and since Xiao Die had photographic memory, it was not difficult for her to remember these routes. Since Number Ten had a lot of knowledge on firearms, he naturally had to think about how best to prepare these defenses.

While they were concentrating on memorizing the map, Ji Ruxue was talking at the side, using this to divert the attention of the researchers. After recording everything, Ji Ruxue impatiently said to them, "Alright, you guys continue to study. There's no need to report to the higher ups until you have no results."

Ji Ruxue left hurriedly. That's right, since she had already obtained important information, it was best for her to leave as soon as possible.

Just as they were about to return, someone called out to them. It was a man with a serious expression, "Which department do you belong to, daring to come out without a badge? Don't you know that this is against the law?"

Yes, walking around the laboratory of Chu Yan required a nameplate, but Ji Ruxue was not afraid of this. She directly said, "When will we get an A job? Do we need your permission?"

When Ji Ruxue said this, she lowered her voice, but he still heard it clearly. She immediately lowered her head in apology, as the A Department was the special operations office for the initial smoke, mainly because the higher ups were in charge of directly contacting some personnel. Ji Ruxue only dared to say this because she believed that this man was once a subordinate of the A Department.

The process from the initial smoke was exceptionally smooth. It made them feel rather relaxed. After covering their tracks, Ji Ruxue and the other two had to travel more than ten kilometers before they could rest.

The way back must not be followed, or else some traces would be left behind for others to investigate.

The three of them took away the necessities that they had previously hidden away. It was now seven o'clock at night and they had not seen the forest in the night. Even Ji Ruxue did not dare to act rashly.

However, the little butterfly lightly tugged on Ji Ru Xue's sleeve and pointed at a cliff behind her. Ji Ru Xue didn't understand what the little butterfly wanted to express, so she just stood up and walked towards the worth of the little butterfly.

The things she saw caused Ji Ruxue to turn pale in fright. She couldn't help but let out a small cry. At this time, Number Ten also walked over, fearing that he might encounter some sort of danger. However, after looking at it, she also lost her composure.

There was a platform at the bottom of the cliff, and below it was clearly an artificially raised snake den, densely packed with little snakes twisting together. At this time, Number Ten opened his mouth, "This is a Mysterious Ring Snake, highly toxic and endangered."

Ji Ru Xue then understood. "Chu Yan actually kept so many snakes here. What are they trying to do with the venom?"

However, Xiao Die shook her head and said softly, "Lame, the taste is the same." Before he came, Xiuyi had already introduced Xiao Die to Ji Ruxue. She was sensitive to taste and taste.

Although Number Ten was still confused, Ji Ru Xue understood now. This cripple was referring to Talley. Could it be that Talley was the one who raised the strange snake in this pond?

By borrowing the moonlight, Ji Ru Xue was able to clearly see what exactly Tally had fed the Chiru Snakes. Although the little snakes were large in size, they were still young and had a sole remaining on them.

On the back of her foot was an incomplete tattoo. Ji Ruxue's face was deathly pale. Of course she recognized this tattoo. It was one that everyone in the upper echelons of the initial smoke had.

What was the background of this Talley? If he could take care of the higher-ups, he would be able to raise such a huge group of snakes in the forest.

"Do you need me to grab a sample for you?" Ji Ruxue, who was thinking about all this, stopped him. "Once someone gets infected with the scent of an outsider, it's very easy to distinguish them. Don't act rashly or you might alert the enemy."

Before retreating, he took a long look at the group of snakes. It seemed like he had finally made the right decision this time. This Talley definitely wasn't as simple as a guide.

This was the second day they had come to the forest. On the third day, they had to go out, and their people would be waiting outside to receive them.

Number Ten and Little Butterfly encircled Ji Ru Xue and brought out their weapons. They vigilantly looked around them. Ji Ru Xue looked at the crossbow that was deeply embedded in the ground and narrowed her eyes with a dangerous expression.

If it wasn't for the whistling sound of the wind, the bolt would have pierced Ji Ru Xue's head. There was a rustling sound from the grass by her side as a person walked out.

It was Talley! So he had already discovered them at the time, but what did he mean by doing that? Did he just want to kill them to make the snake pond's feed?

Talley was limping, but no one looked down on him. They all put themselves on alert. Talley's expression was a little crazy now. He smiled sinisterly and said, "Dogs, they're all dogs from the beginning of time."

Could it be that Talley had had some sort of conflict with the cigarette? Ji Ru Xue replied, "I'm not from the initial smoke."

However, those words were too pale for Talley. He stared at Ji Ruxue and said, "I should have killed you long ago. You were wrong from the start."

Ji Ru Xue lowered her head and the arrow barely brushed past Ji Ru Xue's hair. A strand of hair floated down and covered Ji Ru Xue's eyes, making it impossible to clearly see her expression.

Regardless of whether he did it on purpose or not, he had already offended Ji Ruxue. Ji Ru Xue rushed up and kicked Talley's broken leg a few times.

However, the sounds of their fight were too loud. In this kind of forest, even if one didn't attract the attention of the initial smoke, it would still attract the attention of some large ferocious beasts.
