But when the fighter plane reached the stratosphere, Du Ruo saw a different scene. This was a height he had never reached before when flying with a sword.
Because there are many things to consider, such as the possibility of encountering airplanes or being more easily captured by satellites, Du Ruo has never thought about flying above the clouds.
This time he got the chance to experience it, and at the same time he decided that he must try flying above the clouds with a sword in the future. It is really beautiful here, and this is the height that a sword should fly at.
As for the pilot's deliberate performance-like flying maneuvers, Du Ruo didn't take them seriously. With his current martial arts skills, although he couldn't catch up with the fighter plane in speed, he wouldn't feel uncomfortable riding in it.
On the contrary, at high speeds, as the load on his body increased, he felt quite comfortable. Although this pressure was not as direct as a gravel vortex, it was more comprehensive and detailed like water. The pervasive pressure made his body feel as comfortable as if he was soaking in warm water.
It’s a pity that the fighter jet only sent Du Ruo to the airport, and did not fly directly to the United States.
So it didn't take too long before we reached our destination.
This is also a military airport. When Du Ruo got off the fighter plane, before he could take a closer look, someone guided him into an ordinary car.
Then headed straight to the international airport.
This time there was no need for any complicated procedures, and nothing was delivered directly to the aircraft tarmac.
Du Ruo got off the car in the airport parking lot. After receiving the ticket and a mobile phone from the driver, he went through security check like other passengers and waited for the airport's arrangements.
Perhaps the only difference between him and other passengers was that when Du Ruo went through security check, he was slowly carrying a wooden box in his hand, which contained a long sword. When he passed through security check, no one came to ask him questions.
Today's flight was exceptionally punctual. Once we got on the plane, we were off to fly for more than ten hours.
The ticket prepared for him was a first-class ticket, which made Du Ruo feel much more comfortable during the ride. At least it was relatively quiet.
After getting on the plane, Du Ruo poured all the pills he had prepared the day before into his mouth, and then began to close his eyes and rest.
When the pill enters the mouth, it is immediately wrapped by the "Qi" and then sent into the stomach. You just need to disperse the "Qi" that wraps the pill when needed.
Then for a full twelve hours, Du Ruo just closed his eyes and rested without eating or drinking. Du Ruo knew that the next step would be a tough battle. During this process, no flight attendant came to ask questions or check on Du Ruo. Anyway, as long as Du Ruo did not make any requests, no one would come to disturb him.
It was not until the plane landed that Du Ruo opened his eyes, then got off the plane with his sword in hand.
Naturally, Du Ruo was stopped.
After all, the Tang sword that Du Ruo was holding was sharpened, so it would naturally be detected when he went through security check after getting off the plane. However, Du Ruo immediately took out an appraisal form and an invitation letter to the auction from the wooden box, and said that this was an antique long sword that was being auctioned, and then Du Ruo was released.
As for the invitation letter to the auction, it was naturally obtained by the people above. In the face of power, it is too easy to get someone to send an invitation letter.
However, after the customs officers checked the identification form, the US dollars under the form disappeared.
Yes, the reason why Du Ruo was arranged to go to the United States was to submit the Tang sword in his hand for auction.
Otherwise, Du Ruo wouldn't have gone to the United States for no reason, right?
Everything went very smoothly. When Du Ruo came out of the airport, he saw a sign with the words "Du Ruo" on it, and he walked over without feeling surprised.
The man holding the sign was blond and blue-eyed. He had a sturdy build and prominent muscle lines. Du Ruo just went over and said hello. The other party said that he was from the auction and had come to pick Du Ruo up. He even took out his ID to prove it.
Du Ruo just glanced casually and then got into the car.
The airport in the beautiful country, even though it was not Du Ruo's first time here, he was still choked by the smell.
The scenery outside the car window flew by, the buildings became lower and lower, and the vegetation became more and more. It was obvious that it was far away from the city, but Du Ruo remained silent the whole time, just sitting in the car waiting to reach the destination.
Even though anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was not the way to the airport, Du Ruo did not try to stop him or ask.
It was as if everything had nothing to do with him.
Du Ruo's attitude made the blond man who came to pick him up couldn't help but look at Du Ruo frequently through the rearview mirror.
Perhaps at this moment he was expecting Du Ruo to ask, so that his prepared words would not be wasted.
But Du Ruo had no intention of speaking at all.
Until the vehicles were getting farther and farther away, there were fewer and fewer buildings around, and there were fewer and fewer vehicles on the road, until only four cars were still moving along the road.
Yes, four cars. After Du Ruo got on the car at the airport, there were three cars following behind.
But Du Ruo still said nothing, and even stopped looking at the scenery around him. He began to close his eyes, as if he was catching up on his sleep.
"..."
About half an hour later, the vehicle stopped silently in front of a building complex. After the vehicle stopped, the driver quickly opened the door and ran into the building.
Du Ruo was left alone in the car, and even the three cars that were originally following behind had disappeared.
Only two drones were floating in the sky above the car, making a buzzing sound.
Du Ruo then opened his eyes, took out a mobile phone from his arms, took a look at it, and found that there was no signal at all. He simply threw it aside, then opened the wooden box that had been placed beside him and grabbed the Tang sword without a scabbard in his hand.
Du Ruo opened the car door, got out and looked at the buildings in front of him.
The buildings here are different from the cheap wooden houses with wooden frames and gypsum boards that are common in beautiful countries that we have seen along the way. This is obviously a reinforced concrete structure.
It is also obvious that this is a beautiful house that only rich people can live in. Of course, it is more likely that this place is not for people to live in, but for scientific research experiments or to detain some special talents.
Du Ruo had seen photos of this building. It was the research institute of biotechnology that Du Ruo had read about in the information he had read.
Obviously, the other party had been paying attention to him just as Du Ruo had thought, so he was brought here as soon as he got off the plane.
As for the purpose, it is self-evident.
"Haha, Boss Du, welcome, welcome~~"
A voice came, in standard Mandarin, accompanied by a team of people.
The two leaders were also old acquaintances. One was Inoue Sanzo, who had become thinner and had more slender hands and feet.
The other one became even more muscular, and seemed to be a blond man who was probably two meters tall. No, he shouldn't be called a blond man because his blond hair was completely gone.
"Why? You have switched to auction business now?"
Du Ruo withdrew his gaze and then looked at the two of them. After confirming that they had arrived at their destination, Du Ruo felt a lot more relaxed.
And now Du Ruo knew that ever since the car he was riding in arrived here, he had been under close surveillance. Even with his strong spiritual perception, he could sense many malicious gazes.
Occasionally, many parts of his body would feel slightly itchy, which made Du Ruo realize that many people were aiming weapons at him, but this was not enough.
What Du Ruo wants is to compete with modern weapons, not these guns and ammunition.
Even the most powerful sniper rifle is not enough for Du Ruo. After all, it is only useful if it can hit the target, so Du Ruo decided... to recruit the military personnel who cooperated with him.
"Haha, Boss Du, you are joking. We admire your strength, so we used this method to invite you here."
It was not known whether Inoue Sanzo was confident in his improved strength or he had forgotten that he was killed instantly by Du Ruo.
This time he spoke without any of the servility he had before.
"Really? But I don't really like being invited in this way."
Only then did Du Ruo retract his gaze from his surroundings and focus his gaze on Inoue Sanzo.
Du Ruo's tone was calm, and there was even a smile on his lips, but when his eyes fell on Inoue Sanzoro, Inoue Sanzoro felt his whole body hair stand on end.
He suddenly felt like he was being stared at by a tiger, or rather, it was not a feeling of being stared at by a tiger. After all, the tiger was not even a threat to him now.
This is an instinctive sense of crisis when facing a superior predator.
"Du...Mr. Du, you must be short of money, otherwise you wouldn't put a sword like this up for auction. We can give you a lot of money and also make a qualitative change in your strength."
When Inoue Sanzo saw Du Ruo's gaze, all his courage and confidence disappeared. He became servile again, and even the way he addressed others changed.
"Then let me see your transformation!"
Du Ruo didn't stop smiling, staring at the other person, taking a step forward while speaking, and then slapped Inoue Sanjiro with his empty left hand. Du Ruo's move had no skills or routines, and when he raised his foot and put it down again, he was already in front of Inoue Sanjiro, spanning a distance of three meters, and at the same time, he slapped the other person's face with the back of his hand.
"!!!"
Inoue Sanzo kept looking at Du Ruo, and when Du Ruo opened his mouth, his body instinctively gave him a great warning.
He stared at Du Ruo with wide eyes as he took a step forward and then slapped him with his hand. The adrenaline in his body surged and his body instinctively wanted to dodge, but he was surprised to find that he couldn't move at all. The speed he was proud of was like child's play in front of Du Ruo.
Moreover, Du Ruo's gaze seemed to contain a special deterrent power, which made his movements even slower.
He had just raised his foot and turned his body slightly, but before he could dodge, Du Ruo slapped him in the face with her backhand.
"boom!!!"
The seemingly slow collision between the back of Du Ruo's hand and face did not produce a crisp slapping sound, but a dull collision sound.
Immediately afterwards, Inoue Sanjiro's entire body was blown horizontally like a plastic bag blown by the wind, leaving only a trail of red and purple blood in the air.
"boom!!!!"
The body flew far away, and after landing, it rolled for a long distance before finally stopping.
Everyone looked over in shock.
Inoue Sanzo, who had already flown dozens of meters, fell to the ground, his hands still trembling and groping, and his feet seemed to have just reacted and wanted to lift his legs to walk, but they just kept stepping on the air.
His neck was drooping like a noodle, and half of his head had collapsed. From his mouth and nose, red-purple blood and squeezed white liquid flowed out...
At one glance, everyone knew that Inoue Sanzo no longer needed medical treatment.
Everyone withdrew their gaze and took several steps back.
"drink!!!!"
Only the hairless blond man let out a loud shout, and then his whole body seemed to be injected with hormones. His already very tall and burly figure swelled again, with blood vessels bulging and muscles knotted all over his body.
Then the bald blond man chopped Du Ruo on the head with a karate knife.
"boom!!!"
His burly body swelled to more than two meters in height, and he chopped down on the head of Du Ruo, who was less than one meter eighty, in a standard karate posture. The blow was fast and fierce, with great force and power, and there was even a faint sound of the hand knife breaking through the air when it fell. Du Ruo stood there as if stunned, allowing the hand knife to chop down on his head.
"Crack!!"
Like an egg hitting a stone, Du Ruo's body did not move at all, but the palm of the hairless blond man made a sound of bone breaking.
The hand knife chopped on Du Ruo's head, but his arm was twisted and deformed.
"drink!!!"
But the hairless blond man seemed to feel no pain. Before he retracted his left hand, he shouted again, and his left hand turned into a knife, stabbing towards Du Ruo's throat.
"Crack!!"
It's a pity that the stab with the hand knife only pierced Du Ruo's skin on the throat, and no blood flowed out. The red skin had healed, and did not hurt the underlying muscles, or even the esophagus and trachea.
Instead, several of his own fingers were broken again.
At this time, the hairless blond man's expression finally changed. He looked down and was about to raise his leg to kick Du Ruo in the crotch.
But Du Ruo did not give him a chance. He stretched out his left hand, which had just slapped Inoue Sanjiro, and grabbed his chest like lightning.
Du Ruo's hand was like a unheated fork inserted into butter. There was no sense of obstruction at all and it went straight into the other person's chest.
"Is this what you call a qualitative change? To be honest, the change is huge, but it's useless."
Du Ruo only started to speak at this time, but while speaking, he withdrew his hand from the other person's chest.
There was a beating heart in his hand.
The hairless blond man looked down at the reddish-purple heart in Du Ruo's hand, and then looked at his own chest.
Unfortunately, his enlarged body prevented him from seeing the huge hole in his chest.
"Tsk~ As expected, even the body organs have changed color. I'll give it back to you."
Du Ruo looked at the heart that was no longer beating but was trembling slightly, sighed, then stretched out his arm and stuffed the heart that had been taken out back into the heart that was open like a water pipe.
"what!!"
The hairless blond man seemed to have just reacted at this time. He did not die immediately because his heart was taken out. He screamed again and raised his leg to kick Du Ruo, which shows how strong and vigorous his vitality is.
However, Du Ruo didn't even look at him. He raised his foot and kicked the hairless blond man away. After landing, his heart fell out of his chest and finally rolled in front of the hairless blond man, making him face his own heart.
“Is this the only level you can reach?”
Du Ruo shook off the blood on his hands and spoke casually. His voice was not loud, but it could be heard far away.
At this time, the other people who had just followed Inoue Sanzo and the blond man stepped back again, looking at Du Ruo from afar, with unconcealable fear and shock on their faces.
The fighting power of Inoue Sanzo and the blond man can be regarded as the first-line fighting force in their biological company.
Both of them have outstanding martial arts attainments, and their physical fitness is top-notch due to years of training.
In addition, he had already injected a large amount of medicine, which further improved his physical fitness.
It was not until the company merged the Hill family's technological drugs that the improved drugs produced also took effect on them.
The Hill family's medicines are divided into many categories, which are usually taken to assist exercise.
The last injection given to Samuel was a short-term boost in strength, which could be considered an explosive and status-based one. Of course, the side effects were also obvious, as it directly burned vitality to gain combat power.
It can be said that the stronger the fighting power one bursts out, the faster one will die. Of course, if one dies early, the muscles will want to struggle a little longer.
Today's technology companies are going even further, directly combining the two. There is no training type or explosive type, but the two are combined into one.
It can not only speed up training efficiency, but also directly improve physical fitness, explosive power, etc.
As for the cost, the faster your strength increases, the faster your vitality will be lost, and it will be accompanied by some side effects.
Among these side effects, the most significant ones are nerve insensitivity and hair loss.
As for other things like brothers being insensitive, short-lived, and prone to sudden death, they are not worth mentioning.
This company was able to capture a large number of warriors for experiments, and the two of them also made considerable contributions. It was like a pyramid scheme, after they became rich, they always wanted their brothers to get rich as well.
"You...go and hold him steady! The troops are on their way."
In the command room where the institute was located, a pot-bellied man in military uniform patted the bearded man next to him. Before the other party could speak, he added:
"We absolutely cannot let him leave. It would be best if we can capture him alive. If we cannot capture him alive, we must keep him. Even if he is a corpse, it will be of great value. We will not hesitate even if it costs all the consumables here."
The man in military uniform's eyes sparkled as he watched Du Ruo in the video.
Orientals have strong personal combat capabilities and abnormal physical fitness. If they can be captured for transformation or experiments, they can definitely become the strongest warriors.
Even if he cannot capture him alive, with the fighting power that Du Ruo just showed, he can apply for more funds for research. Moreover, a person with such fighting power, even if he is a corpse, has unlimited value.
By then, we can just say that we found residues of biotech drugs from the Eastern superpower in the corpse, and we can also apply for a large sum of funding from above.
So this is a business that is sure to make a profit, but the prerequisite is that Du Ruo must be stabilized before the army arrives.
Now they dare not use guns at will, because Du Ruo just showed a speed far exceeding that of Inoue Sanzo, and was able to take all the attacks of the blond man without any defense.
With such a strong body, no one can guarantee that they can stop the person with a gun.
