"Burn it, wife," Eddie said to Ada.
Ada nodded, a hint of solemnity flashing in her beautiful eyes. Using her unique ability, she stomped her high heel on the ground, and the air began to burn.
Scorching flames continuously burned in the air, and the mycelium diffused throughout the air served as the best fuel.
The raging fire followed the mycelium spreading through the air, burning all the way into the mine shaft, igniting all flammable and explosive materials inside.
General Morgan and Lucas, who were preparing to retreat, were horrified to find that the flames had already burned in, and nothing could stop them.
Even if the door was closed, there was still mycelium in the air, allowing the flames to burn through and incinerate everything, even through the door.
The steel door at the rear was twisted into a pretzel by the scorching flames and mycelium, making it impossible for them to get out for a while.
With their retreat blocked, they could only go out the front, or else be trapped and die here.
However, the front was covered in overwhelming flames, trapping them in place, leaving them to watch helplessly as the fire spread.
Using the only fire extinguishing equipment they had was completely ineffective.
"What do we do now?" General Morgan felt an immense headache. That damned Eddie was still going to make a move against him.
"mycelium! mycelium is flammable. As long as we can absorb the mycelium in the air, we still have a chance to survive!" Lucas was indeed a genius. Despite his incredibly dark psyche, his sharp intelligence could not be ignored.
"What do you suggest?" General Morgan frowned.
Lucas grinned sinisterly and grabbed Neil. As Neil looked on in confusion, Lucas jabbed a needle into his neck and pushed him out.
Before Neil could react, his body began to convulse. Large amounts of mycelium spread throughout his body, starting to devour his muscles and bones, and even the consciousness in his mind began to fade.
Neil didn't die from Alex's Uroboros Virus, simply because Alex married Eddie and hadn't been playing that game for many years.
He was already content to have escaped one calamity and delayed his death by a few years, yet now he was calculated by Lucas, one of his own. This scene was so similar to how he was almost betrayed by Alex back then!
General Morgan was furious. Neil was, after all, one of his subordinates. "What are you doing? Lucas, you'd better give me an explanation!"
Facing the surrounding guards with their submachine guns, Lucas sneered, "I'm just making him do what he should do: become a Fungus Beast, absorb the mycelium in the air, and isolate the flames. Otherwise, what plan do you have?"
General Morgan fell silent upon hearing this. He didn't know what to say. If he didn't sacrifice a subordinate, they would all be finished. If he sacrificed a subordinate, it would be troublesome to rally people's support in the future.
This was a difficult choice. Regardless, as long as he didn't die himself, there would always be hope for the future.
Neil also played his final role, being controlled to absorb a large amount of mycelium, turning into a large fireball and burning into a pile of ashes.
It burned for a full fifteen minutes before stopping, and even the oxygen inside was becoming insufficient.
General Morgan and Lucas both began to suffer from oxygen deprivation. Burning in a sealed environment would deplete the air; this was a trap!
Without oxygen, most creatures would die, except for monsters.
Eddie and the others chatted outside for a while, even pouring lake water into the mine shaft to cool it down, before finally entering.
All the Fungus Beast monsters inside were burned to death. A faint stench lingered in the air, the toxic smell of filthy things burned and left behind.
With gas masks, Eddie and the others weren't afraid of these toxic gases. Even without them, with their physical fitness, their cells could directly filter out the toxic gases, turning the harmful parts into nutrients to absorb.
This was true evolution, already showing a taste of survival of the fittest.
They walked all the way to the end, where the instruments and traps had already malfunctioned.
They didn't need to hide and sneak around to reach the deepest part, where they saw a pile of ashes in the main hall.
Opposite the ashes was a sealed door, and General Morgan and Lucas were hiding inside!
Chapter 650: Miss Liang Gives You Courage
Knock, knock, knock, the sound of knocking rang out, followed by Eddie's playful taunting, "Hey, Morgan, right? Hello, old dog. What, seeing an old friend, do you need to hide? Come out, don't hide. Your wife ran off with someone else, and you're still hiding? You're being cuckolded, brother!"
Pfft, Ada, Sherry, and Zoe all chuckled. Sheva's beautiful eyes, in particular, sparkled as she looked at her boss; this young boss's words always made people burst into laughter!
Even the usually composed Morgan inside was furious. Damn it, being told every day that he was being cuckolded, who could endure that? Did a man's dignity mean nothing?
"You're the one being cuckolded, your whole family is being cuckolded! My wife died long ago, I have no mother, and no daughter. What can you do to me? Eddie, you pervert, go to hell, you bastard trash!" General Morgan began to curse furiously, disregarding his status!
He obviously knew Simmons' fate. Simmons didn't have a wife, but he still had a mother.
Simmons' mother was miserable; she couldn't die, but she lived very freely, at least the task of bearing children was left to her.
Morgan clearly didn't want to be like Simmons, ridden over by Eddie as a father. He would rather die than be humiliated and live like that!
Eddie's expression turned cold. "Originally, I was going to hand you over to the local agents, but now I've changed my mind. I want to watch you burn to death alive!"
These words sent a chill down General Morgan's spine. He knew this terrifying man meant what he said; this was no joke! "Come at me if you dare!"
Bang! The next second, Eddie kicked the door flying. The heavy door, weighing a full three tons, flew out and crushed several sturdy guards to death.
Dada da! Submachine guns began to spew out a large number of bullets, the sparks from the firing pins and bullets still appearing in the air.
All of this was in vain. With a wave of Eddie's hand, all the bullets directly hit the air. They Strangely remained suspended in the air, unable to move forward or backward an inch, and did not fall to the ground due to gravity.
This bizarre scene sent a chill through General Morgan's heart, while Lucas's eyes lit up. He seemed to have discovered a new continent; this brother-in-law had some tricks up his sleeve!
When the submachine gun bullets ran out, Eddie waved his hand, and all the bullets were returned in full, turning them into sieves.
Only General Morgan and Lucas were still alive. The next second, Neil, who had died in the hall as a cocoon, let out a roar.
The ruptured cocoon exploded and scattered. Like a strong man, his right hand was composed of countless black Uroboros tentacles. A Tyrant combined with a Uroboros mutated Neil appeared. Who would have thought they would encounter him again!
Lucas sneered, "Excellent, I knew that mold combined with Uroboros could definitely become the newest type of weapon! Kill him, my servant!"
Bang! The wildly laughing Lucas was directly slapped away by Neil. "You are my servant!"
Thump! Neil punched through the sealed back door, pushing General Morgan out. "General, you must fulfill your promise and turn the world into a new world!"
Thump! Another punch shattered the back door, sealing it, and then he turned to face Eddie.
From beginning to end, Eddie was watching the show. He had already locked onto General Morgan's position; even if the other party could run, it would be useless.
It was a cat-and-mouse game, and of course, he would only eat it after having enough fun.
Moreover, General Morgan, that dog, had cursed him, so he couldn't be forgiven. Simply letting the other party die was not enough to vent his anger. Eddie's true goal was to make General Morgan die a terrible death, to give hope in despair, and then suddenly turn that hope into despair, repeatedly tormenting him before finally killing him!
Neil turned his head. Although he had become a monster, he retained a certain degree of sanity. "Eddie, Claire is with you, right?"
"Yes, she's currently pregnant with our second child. I don't have plans for a third one yet. By the way, you're ugly, don't covet my wife, my wife is very beautiful. You're ugly, you don't have the right, trash. Do you have anything you want to say? Say it, anyway, your biological mother is gone." Eddie was completely impolite.
Neil was furious. "I'll twist your dog head off. Do you think you're so great? Heh, sooner or later you'll die at the hands of someone even stronger. Now I'll send you on your way!"
Bang! As soon as Neil finished speaking, the Uroboros Virus in his right hand was severed, and a flame began to burn out of nowhere.
