Getting A System In A Modern World

Chapter 168: The Rescue Mission, The Depth Of The Organization

An ear-splitting scream with intense pain and agony echoed throughout the lab.

From where she stood, Luna looked at the man, who was screaming in pain and holding his hand—what was left of it—and also looking at it in disbelief.

She felt disgusted by the man's reaction. She wanted nothing more than to send him to his maker, but she doesn't want to get her hands dirtier than they already are.

She turned to look at the most eye-catching structure in the lab where she was standing—a massive glass that's twice the height of a human, filled with unknown blueish liquid, with a very young lady nakedly floating inside it.

The young lady looks extremely pale and has multiple small tubes, catheters, connected to her, and these tubes were filled with unknown fluid of different colors.

Luna walked to the glass pod and ran her hands on its surface, feeling it and assessing its quality.

She wanted to know what materials the glass pod was made of because it doesn't look like anything currently on the market.

She knocked gently on it, and she heard a dull sound.

"Not bad."

Luna didn't waste anymore time as she pointed one of her fingers at the glass pod, and a powerful energy blast was emitted from its tip.

Luna made a quick gesture, using her finger that was emitting a powerful energy blast, using it to draw a straight line on the surface of the glass pod. Her finger left a red, hot mark on the surface of the glass pod it touches.

After she had drawn a line that was nearly the height of a human, she started hearing a soft cracking sound as very vague cracks appeared on the surface of the glass pod.

The cracking sound got louder as the cracks spread even further along the surface of the glass pod.

The speed of cracks spreading increased, and the next moment, a loud crashing sound, followed by a loud gushing sound, was heard as the glass pod shattered completely, allowing the fluid inside the glass pod to rush out in full force.

While the cracks were spreading along the surface of the glass pod, Luna was already in the air, and immediately after it shattered and the fluid was gushing out of it, she flew in through a gaping hole in the pod and caught the young lady before she fell to the ground.

After she caught her, she flew out of the glass pod and landed on the floor.

She laid the lady on the table and walked towards a location in the lab. She wants to get some clothes for the lady, as she can't just fly her out of the lab facility and across the cold continent without any thread of clothing on her.

Luna walked towards what looked like a regular wall, and before she got there, the seemingly regular-looking wall opened, and a bundle of lab coats and fabrics suited for the cold was seen.

"Convenient." Luna nodded when she saw this.

She started selecting some of the clothes that she knew would fit the lady that lay on the table.

She made sure to pick clothes that were meant for the cold, and she chose a bundle of them because she knew that the lady was too weak at the moment to handle the cold. She would freeze quickly if she's to be exposed to it directly.

After Luna was done selecting the clothes she wanted, she walked back to where the lady was and started dressing her up.

She dressed her up in multiple clothes, making sure that she wouldn't be affected by the cold when they went out.

After Luna was done, she picked up the young lady and started carrying her out of the lab.

As she walked, the doors opened up automatically, allowing her to pass without trouble.

Luna hadn't walked far before she was met with a group of burly-looking men in matching uniforms.

"Who are you and what are you doing with the subject?" One of them roared as he pointed a peculiar-looking gun at her.

"Subjects? You bunch of vermins has fallen so low that your fellow human is nothing more than a subject to you." Luna asked, feeling very amused.

"I really don't understand why my master hasn't wiped you guys off the surface of the earth yet. You lots are nothing more than an infestation of parasites." Luna's cold voice pierced their ears.

Luna wasn't angry at the inhumane experiment the group was conducting; she has seen even ordinary people do something worse than it. She was angry because she has to deal with a bunch of filth and extend the time that it would take her to get back to her master's side.

"Who the hell are you to make an assumption? The scientists here are performing experiments that would benefit humanity greatly. It would put us out there, standing among or even at the top in the universe," the man with a name tag, Ben, said eloquently.

One could see that the man has practiced his speech a very good number of times.

Luna sneered at the man's words.

"For the benefit of humanity or for the benefit of the hyenas at the top of the world's politics and finance? You make it sound so righteous, but I'm not surprised as it's coming from someone like you, Ben Claude." Luna said his name with a sinister smile on her face.

Ben wasn't phased when he heard Luna call his name. His identity, the identity of everyone in the lab facility, and its structure are something he expects someone like her who was able to successfully infiltrate the lab facility to have knowledge of.

"I don't care who you are, but you won't be able to leave here, alive or with the subject!" Ben said as he gripped his gun harder.

The group of men behind him also did the same, as they waited for an order from him.

"You make so much noise, but you're without substance. I have wasted enough time chatting with you. Let me see how you actually intend to stop me from leaving," Luna said and took a step forward.

"Fire!!!" Ben barked and pulled the trigger of his gun.

Immediately, a blue wave shot out of the muzzle of his gun and that of others, and with incredible speed, it flew towards Luna.

Luna allowed the blue waves to hit her to feel their effect.

"Is this the source of your confidence? A cheap knockoff version of a pseudo-pulse gun? Now, I'm even more curious about what secrets the group is hiding," Luna said, intrigued.

She had already analyzed the energy level of the energy pulse that shot out of the gun. The reason she allowed it to hit her is because she wants to know its effect, and it was... laughable.

Not exactly laughable for a cheap knockoff version of a pulse gun, but it was still laughable.

"Since that's all you have to offer, then it's time for me to show you mine," Luna said, and the next moment, a loud blast was heard.

"Arghh!"

"Fuck!"

A series of screams filled with pain echoed through the hallway.
