Chapter 891: Chapter 260: Effortless

Near the corpse pit, Chen Ming didn’t see anything that resembled artificial construction.

This should be just Zuo Jing’s dumping ground; their real operations must be elsewhere.

In Chen Ming’s patient wait.

The spaceship quickly dumped all the stored corpses into the pit.

He suddenly noticed that only one cargo bay of the spaceship opened to dump a large number of corpses into the pit, but there was another cargo bay that remained inactive.

It seemed that it wasn’t filled with corpses.

Chen Ming immediately moved the metallic liquid to this cargo bay and continued to wait.

Once the spaceship had leveled the corpse dumping bay, it restarted its engine and flew towards another location on the planet.

After a ten-minute journey, the spaceship arrived at its destination.

A small mountain.

Not too far from the pit, only about thirty kilometers away.

Below this small mountain was a hidden large door.

When the spaceship landed, the door opened, revealing a passage leading deep underground.

Though the passage was big enough to accommodate the spaceship, it didn’t enter directly but waited on the spot.

A few minutes later.

A device followed the tracks of the passage from underground to the surface.

This device extended several sturdy mechanical arms and connected with the cargo bay that hadn’t opened or dumped corpses.

The spaceship and device simultaneously emitted mechanical sounds as the cargo was transferred to the device.

The device then operated again, carrying the cargo bay underground.

The metallic liquid originally attached to this cargo bay entered underground along with it, swiftly descending on the elevator of the long sloped passage.

After passing through a completely dark passage.

Chen Ming’s metallic liquid finally sensed bright light.

This allowed him to see a white and clean environment, inconsistent with his impression of Zuo Jing, resembling a laboratory.

Moreover, at the end of this passageway stood a group of fully armed Zuo Jing operatives.

After the cargo bay slowly entered the platform, the Zuo Jing leader instructed his personnel to open it, immediately ordering several people to surround the cargo bay door, aiming guns inside.

He even shouted into the cargo bay, "Get out!"

As the Zuo Jing leader spoke, Chen Ming also saw the interior clearly.

The cargo bay was filled not with corpses, but with living people.

Individuals of different ages and genders, none looking alike—just ordinary people.

They looked at the Zuo Jing operatives outside with eyes filled with despair, fear, and anger, but in the face of gaping gun barrels, they could only choose to comply.

Zuo Jing indeed partakes in human trafficking.

Chen Ming guessed that the Space Station above served as a transfer hub.

They send kidnapped people and bodies from experiments in the core area of the Space Station to this planet laboratory.

He felt a bit of sympathy for these people, but he couldn’t rescue them directly now.

His main goal here was to find clues linking Zuo Jing to the dimension infection from the Cai Mo Star Realm.

He would only try to rescue them under the premise of not affecting his primary objective, or do something else.

As the Zuo Jing operatives transported these individuals deeper into the laboratory, Chen Ming’s metallic liquid had already flowed from the cargo bay into the laboratory’s floor, beginning to infiltrate the lab’s interior.

However, a familiar scene unfolded.

Most parts of this laboratory were protected by films made of Silent Alloy, dividing it into different zones like the Space Station.

The passageways with doors yet to be closed were also densely monitored, making direct entry impossible.

Fortunately, as the Zuo Jing operatives were moving these captured individuals inside the lab.

Chen Ming adhered his metallic liquid underneath the feet of these Zuo Jing and ordinary folks, blending into the laboratory.

He soon discovered auxiliary robots in the laboratory moving unrestrictedly across zones separated by Silent Alloy films.

Once inside, even without the Zuo Jing operatives and the captured individuals, the metallic liquid could use these robots for tasks.

It seemed the internal security of the laboratory wasn’t stringent.

Nevertheless, Chen Ming only just entered the lab and was unfamiliar with its layout.

The laboratory hadn’t placed an open map at its periphery, leaving him to explore slowly via the robots, wandering between regions.

During this process, the laboratory’s corridors and pristine white walls gave Chen Ming a sense of familiarity.

Just like the time he personally visited Dusk in the underground to study clone results but instead triggered dimension infection in that laboratory.

Though much of Dusk Laboratory’s white walls were covered in grotesque flesh, the original appearance was barely discernible.
