The Lizardmen on the Five-Cornered Lizardman, relying on their powerful strength and agile movements, moved freely among the Guards, as if entering an uninhabited land.

Although they carried no weapons, their hands were already incredibly sharp, instantly transforming into the most terrifying weapons, gleaming coldly; each swing brought forth a spray of blood, and the air was filled with a pungent, bloody smell.

The Guards, under their attack, were utterly defenseless, screaming and falling one after another.

Some were directly impaled by the Lizardmen's sharp claws, while others were sent flying by powerful blows, crashing heavily against the walls with dull thuds.

They engaged in close-quarters combat with the Guards; the shouts of battle and the clang of weapons intertwined, instantly turning the entire passage into a brutal battlefield.

After dealing with this group of Guards, the squad did not linger and continued towards the Experimental Zone.

Along the way, they encountered several Patrol Teams. The Guards in these Patrol Teams were also well-trained, with vigilant eyes, and upon discovering the Lizardmen Squad's presence, they immediately raised their weapons and attacked. But the Lizardmen Squad, facing the enemy's attacks, showed no fear.

In one skirmish, a Lizardmen accidentally grazed his arm with an enemy's bullet, and the moment a trickle of blood emerged, it automatically healed.

After a fierce battle, the Lizardmen Squad finally successfully dealt with all the Patrol Teams and arrived at the Experimental Zone's gate.

This door was sturdier than any they had encountered before, its surface covered with various complex locks and blinking electronic devices, exuding an intimidating aura.

Goro took a deep breath and, following the information provided by the parasitic member, carefully entered the password on the Experimental Zone's gate; with each digit he pressed, his heart was in his throat, fearing he would mess up the task assigned by the great Dominator.

With a series of "click-clack" sounds, the large door slowly opened, revealing a passage forged from steel before everyone's eyes.

The passage was filled with a cold metallic aura, and the dim, eerie lights reflected strange shadows on the metal walls, as if leading them into an unknown, mysterious world.

............

In a research lab deep within the passage, several people dressed in full white robes with numbers on their chests were staring intently at the monitoring screen, not missing a single movement from Goro and the others.

From the moment Goro and his group stepped through the base's main gate, they were like hunters lurking in the darkness, closely tracking these uninvited guests.

What was surprising was that, facing the Lizardmen Squad's rampant slaughter of the Patrol Teams within the base, there was no trace of panic in their eyes; instead, they gleamed with excitement, as if they had discovered a rare treasure.

The leader, with the number "1" on his chest, revealed a fanatical anticipation in his eyes. He turned to the white-robed person with "3" on his chest beside him and said, "Number 3, release the Messenger-level experimental subjects to test these guys' strength."

Number 3 nodded slightly, his eyes focused as he quickly entered a series of commands on the electronic screen.

At this moment, Goro and his group, who were slowly moving deeper into the passage, suddenly heard a dull mechanical rumbling from ahead.

Immediately after, the mechanical wall in front of them slowly opened, and a metal door slowly rose, accompanied by a pungent, putrid smell and a chilling roar.

Over a dozen monsters, resembling Lickers from zombie movies, rushed out. They were soaking wet, their skin a repulsive grayish-white, like skinned frog-men, crawling rapidly on all fours, their movements as agile as ghosts.

The moment Goro and the others saw these monsters, they felt a wave of revulsion.

It was not out of fear, but because the monsters' appearance was simply too ugly, completely violating intelligent beings' perception of beauty.

Their eyes protruded, emitting an eerie greenish glow, and their mouths were filled with sharp fangs, constantly dripping disgusting mucus.

Several Lickers first attacked Goro, their tongues darting out with lightning speed. These tongues were tough and powerful, whistling through the air, aimed directly at Goro's throat.

Goro's eyes narrowed; years of combat experience allowed him to react instantly.

He nimbly dodged to the left, the tongue grazing his cheek, bringing with it a gust of wind that made her cheek sting.

At the same time, he shouted loudly, "Everyone be careful, these monsters have high life strength, at least equivalent to a Five-Cornered Lizardman!" His voice echoed through the passage, filled with tension and vigilance.

The other Lizardmen, hearing Goro's shout, immediately entered combat mode.

One Five-Cornered Lizardman unfortunately had his arm entangled by a Licker's tongue. The tongue was like a tough rope, tightening more and more. He struggled with all his might, but felt the strength on his arm growing, making it impossible to break free.

A pained expression appeared on his face, veins bulged on his forehead, and the muscles in his arm tensed from exertion.

Just at this critical moment, a nearby companion rushed over without hesitation. The sharp blade in this Lizardmen's hand gleamed coldly; he leaped high, using his body weight and strength to fiercely stab the Licker's tongue.

"Pfft," a gush of green blood splattered everywhere like a fountain, its Fishy smell making one want to vomit.

The Licker cried out in pain with a sharp shriek, releasing the tongue that had wrapped around its companion, and then lunged at the attacker with bared fangs.

Laike, observing the battle, noticed that while these Lickers were agile, their attack methods were relatively simple, relying mainly on their tongues and sharp claws.

He nimbly dodged attacks while carefully observing the Lickers' movement patterns.

He saw one Lizardmen's gaze fixed on a Licker, noticing that before each attack, its body would slightly squat, which seemed to be a precursor to its attack.

Moreover, he also noticed that the Licker's abdomen was relatively soft, without hard outer skin protection.

So, Laike shouted loudly, "Attack their abdomens, that's their weakness!" His voice was firm and strong, like a battle horn.

The other Lizardmen heard the shout and immediately changed their attack strategy.

One Five-Cornered Lizardman's eyes lit up. Seizing the opportunity, he propelled himself upwards with a powerful thrust of his legs, leaping high.

He shed his disguise, revealing his Lizardmen body, his sharp claws gleaming coldly in the dim light, cutting a graceful arc in mid-air, striking directly at a Licker's abdomen.

"Puch," the sharp claws sank into the Licker's body, and green blood gushed out, splattering onto the Five-Cornered Lizardman.

That Licker struggled painfully for a few moments, its limbs twitching uncontrollably, then fell to the ground, motionless.

However, the Lickers were numerous, and wave after wave surged forward, making the Lizardmen gradually feel somewhat strained.
