A group of people quickly went upstairs, with many thoughts in their minds but no time to share them.
When they reached the seventeenth floor, Cai Zhi hurried down with his team, and they met each other here.
Cai Zhi anxiously said, "Liang Yuan, are you alright? Zhao Kai told me everything."
Liang Yuan shook his head, "I’m fine. How are things upstairs?"
"Everything is good upstairs. Zhao Kai and Old Ma are guarding the place, and I also had Yang Mei and my family lock the doors."
Liang Yuan felt a bit more at ease and said, "I’ve dealt with the enemies downstairs. Liu Feifei is injured in the head and might be unconscious. She needs to be taken back to rest."
"Don’t go near the twelfth floor either. There’s a large creature hiding there. Tell everyone to stay away for now."
"I need to go to Unit Four immediately; Ding Yan is still there."
He quickly gave orders, and Cai Zhi nodded and agreed to each one.
Handing Liu Feifei over to Cai Zhi and the others, Liang Yuan looked at Song Wen and said, "Since you’ve awakened your mutant ability, study what it is quickly. I’ll look for you when I get back."
Without waiting for Song Wen to respond, his figure moved like lightning, rapidly heading to the thirty-second floor.
In less than ten breaths, Liang Yuan had crossed several floors and reached the thirty-second floor.
At the doorway, Zhao Kai, Old Ma, and other patrol team members greeted Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan didn’t exchange pleasantries with them, he just said, "Guard Unit One properly."
After saying that, he immediately rushed towards the corridor.
The place was desolate; the previous chaos had driven the curious residents back into their homes.
When Liang Yuan reached Unit Four, he found that the bodies on the ground had been cleaned up.
Ding Yan, Zhang Peng, Wen Lili, and others were nowhere to be seen.
He looked at the blood stains on the edge of the corridor and understood at once.
It wasn’t just Chen Hong’s group of corpses that attracted the octopus.
Ding Yan and the others probably threw the bodies into the water too, attracting the mutant octopus with the blood.
His heart sank slightly, resolving anew to avoid disposing of bodies in the water around the building in the future.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the end of the corridor, in the direction of Unit Six.
Faintly, there seemed to be sounds of roaring and screaming.
Liang Yuan’s heart leaped, "Is that Ding Yan’s voice?"
He hurriedly rushed to Unit Six.
Passing through the corridor of Unit Five, there were still many corpses on the ground.
The corridor was stained with blood, being washed red by the rainwater coming in.
Liang Yuan quickly stepped over the bodies and rushed to Unit Six.
On the corridor of Unit Six, he saw Ding Yan wielding a dagger, fiercely attacking.
Zhang Peng, Wen Lili, and the others were scared and running downstairs.
What made Liang Yuan frown deeply was that Ding Yan’s explosive power was extremely strong with her empowered limbs.
But there was clearly no one in front of her; it seemed like she was fighting with the air, desperately battling.
This made Liang Yuan uncertain and apprehensive. He immediately rushed over and shouted, "Ding Yan! What are you doing?"
Unexpectedly, Ding Yan heard the commotion and abruptly turned around.
Her right foot stomped on the ground fiercely, the empowerment light flashed, and she instantly transformed into a shadow, rushing towards Liang Yuan at high speed!
Liang Yuan’s expression changed, he quickly stopped, and sidestepped.
Ding Yan’s dagger sliced through the air, producing a whistling sound.
Liang Yuan couldn’t help but shout, he didn’t understand why Ding Yan was attacking him.
Without turning her head, Ding Yan directly swung her arm, stabbing the dagger fiercely towards Liang Yuan’s abdomen!
Liang Yuan’s fury and shock intertwined, he could no longer hold back.
He kicked out forcefully.
The kick exploded with power, directly hitting Ding Yan’s abdomen.
Instantly, the empowerment light flickered on Ding Yan’s chest, only to shatter immediately.
Her whole body was sent flying by Liang Yuan’s powerful kick!
Liang Yuan’s power had reached a high of 4.9, nearly five times that of an ordinary person.
Even with her empowerment increasing explosive power and defense, Ding Yan could not withstand his immense strength.
Liang Yuan continued forward, his foot stomping the ground, and his body shot out, reaching Ding Yan in a flash.
Ding Yan’s mouth bled, but her eyes remained fierce. She reached for the dagger on the ground, preparing to continue fighting.
Liang Yuan stepped on her hand fiercely, pressing his palm down instantly, pinning Ding Yan’s head to the ground.
He shouted sternly, "Ding Yan! What are you doing?"
Ding Yan glared with hatred, cursing, "Beast, I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you!"
Liang Yuan’s eyelids twitched, realizing something was wrong.
At that moment, Ding Yan’s eyes were full of hatred and madness, as if she didn’t recognize him at all.
She struggled violently, her other hand glowing with empowerment light, swinging a punch towards Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan grabbed her fist with his other hand.
Despite the trembling of the light on her fist and the bulging veins, it was all in vain!
"What’s wrong with you!"
Liang Yuan shouted angrily, pressing down on her head with his hand, unable to hold back strength.
Ding Yan screamed and roared, becoming even more frantic.
Liang Yuan’s gaze became grim. Without a word, he struck with a chopping hand.
The hand chop landed directly on Ding Yan’s neck. Instantly, the defensive empowerment glowed on her neck.
Only to be shattered by the immense force, her eyes rolled up, her body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.
Liang Yuan finally released Ding Yan, turning to look at the terrified Zhang Peng and the others not far away.
"What the hell is going on? Zhang Peng, tell me!"
Zhang Peng, being called by name by Liang Yuan, instinctively shouted, "Brother Liang, Sister Ding has gone mad. We don’t know why, but she was chasing us trying to kill us."
