Chương 29: Full of Flame (2)

"That's because I, with certainty, will beat them up so much to the point they won't even recognize their mother again." Zhang Jue licked the blood from his lips and said with a smile.

As soon as the words left his mouth, the wounds on his legs and back began to regenerate at an alarming rate. This was the self-healing ability he got from Shirley back then, and at a much faster rate compared to when he was experimenting before.

It should be the dopamine and adrenaline secretion that accelerated the process. At this moment, Zhang Jue was still able to analyze calmly; he had not lost his mind but had entered a state of hyperactivity.

Mr. Samuel noticed the change in his body, narrowed his eyes, and let out a chuckle. "I really did underestimate you." With that, he added a few more shots to Zhang Jue.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! All of them hit Zhang Jue in the chest.

Zhang Jue was knocked back a few steps by the force of the bullet through his mouth, vomiting a mouthful of blood, and Yang Xue tried to check his injuries. Zhang Jue seemed to sense something and waved his hand backward.

"Stay down."

Yang Xue was a Foundation doctor, not the pretentious little girl in a romance drama who faced all those horrible anomalies and death all day long. Her self-control was much stronger than the average person, and in this situation, she chose to trust Zhang Jue without hesitation. She decisively stepped back, giving Zhang Jue enough space to avoid distracting him because of herself.

Hearing what Zhang Jue said, Mr. Samuel sneered, "You're quite confident."

Dr. Li, who was instinctively a bit afraid of Zhang Jue because of the beating he had received, hid behind Mr. Samuel and said, "Be careful, my lord, this man is a monster. When he looked directly into SCP-053's eyes, he was not even affected by it."

"Is that so?" Mr. Samuel raised his eyebrows, "Then I want to play with him even more. Li Chengming, I heard that you are good at making human specimens. After studying his ability thoroughly, he will be yours."

After Mr. Samuel finished speaking, the Colt in his hand unexpectedly turned into an MP5 submachine gun. "Kid, you have a fast self-healing ability." Mr. Samuel sneered, "But can you be faster than this?"

Seeing this scene, Yang Xue's heart was shocked that the other party could change the weapon in his hand at will. I don't know if it was his ability or the effect of an anomalous object. The enemy had broken into Site-14 alone and defeated all the security team by himself. His strength was incalculable.

Even though he believed in Zhang Jue, Yang Xue still couldn't stop worrying about him. Zhang Jue was unarmed, and now he was wounded. How will he defeat the enemy?

But Zhang Jue smiled faintly. How could he relax as if waiting for death at this moment?

Attacking was the best defense. "Suck my fucking [DATA EXPUNGED]!" He saw him stand up and leap, raising his right hand and heading straight for Mr. Samuel's face.

Yang Xue shouted, "Watch out!"

She did not know how to fight but knew that Mr. Samuel had prepared his gun to shoot. Zhang Jue leaped. There was nothing that could help him to stop his movement. Zhang Jue had become a living target for the enemy.

Mr. Samuel coldly sneered. Even the security team members combat skills were better than Zhang Jue's. He wondered how the mysterious man on the other side could be afraid of this kid.

Dr. Li froze, knowing that he had been beaten by him. Zhang Jue's combat skill was absolutely first-class. He shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake. People always say that the one who knows you best is your enemy. This saying was not wrong.

Apart from the mysterious man, only Dr. Li sensed the problem. Mr. Samuel was about to shoot Zhang Jue, who was still in the air. But he suddenly felt as if he couldn't move.

That kid's eyes seemed to be emitting magic, and the moment he saw his pupils. Mr. Samuel felt a tingling in his body, and he unexpectedly lost control of his body. He could only watch as Zhang Jue approached him every second of it in the air.

Bam!

Zhang Jue's punch propels Mr. Samuel up in the air with great force while destroying Mr. Samuel's face. Mr. Samuel was sent flying by him, spitting out a large mouthful of blood with two broken teeth mixed in – exactly as Zhang Jue had said.

The air suddenly fell silent. Zhang Jue posed with that punch for a long time. Dr. Li and Yang Xue opened their mouths wide, completely stunned by the scene.

What the hell just happened? Is Zhang Jue a monster? Why didn't Mr. Samuel shoot? A series of questions flashed through Dr. Li's mind, but no one could give him the answer.

As for Yang Xue, she was completely unable to understand what was going on. She only knew that Zhang Jue had once again changed her perspective. That Zhang Jue was truly miraculous. Anything that was left to him could be turned into a miracle.

Only the mysterious man shook his head and laughed helplessly in the middle of the scene.

"Mr. Samuel!" A few seconds later, Dr. Li ran to help Mr. Samuel up.

Mr. Samuel's originally serious and neutral face had been hit with a fist by Zhang Jue, looking quite miserable, and he had lost two teeth and no longer had the dominating aura that he just had. With the help of Dr. Li, he gradually regained consciousness and looked at Zhang Jue again, his eyes already filled with murderous intent.

"I'll fucking kill you!" Mr. Samuel gritted his teeth, but his threatening words sounded comical because he was missing two of his teeth.

Zhang Jue rubbed his wrist, "Mr. Samuel, before you speak, I suggest you count how many teeth you have left for me to hit."

Mr. Samuel was so angry that his body was twitching. Within the Chaos Insurgency, he belonged to the Top Agents and could carry special gear, but he hadn't expected to suffer a loss at the hands of this unknown brat. He must break this kid's bones to pieces!

Mr. Samuel forced himself to calm down. He had been hit because he was underestimating him. He said to himself that he wouldn't kill him now. Seeing that Mr. Samuel had fallen into his trap, Zhang Jue raised an eyebrow.

He had just used the ability he had acquired from SCP-1013 (Cockatrice). As long as he could look at someone briefly, he could immobilize them. The length of his ability seemed to be dependent on the opponent's mental strength and concentration, and Mr. Samuel, without his knowledge, had been used as a guinea pig for his experiments.

He called this ability Mind Freeze.

He also found that Mind Freeze with Terror Projection was surprisingly effective and could make someone with strong mental strength like Mr. Samuel completely immobilized. From his contact with Cockatrice to use the ability just now, the interval was about an hour. The minimum time he needs to "digest the ability".

Simply put, he had to process the ability for his body to adapt after being exposed to various SCP effects. He already knew the ability that he just used was Cockatrice's Ability.

He was looking at Mr. Samuel, who was back on his feet. Zhang Jue smiled faintly. Now it was time for him to try SCP-049's Ability.
