Less than two minutes had passed.

Ma Xiwei, who had gone to the door to retrieve a package, returned carrying a large cardboard box.

Lin Zichen glanced at the cardboard box, his gaze falling upon the slip pasted on top of it.

The sender was anonymous.

It was impossible to tell what was being sent.

Liu Chuanwu stepped forward, took the cardboard box from Ma Xiwei's arms, and said with bewilderment, "Who would go through all this trouble to be so secretive?"

With this question in mind, Liu Chuanwu brought the cardboard box to the table, tore off the sealing tape, and was about to open it.

It was the moment he tore off the sealing tape.

Lin Zichen's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly spoke out to stop him,

"President, don't open the box, it's dangerous!"

[Danger Perception] was throbbing violently!

Opening the cardboard box would bring about enormous danger!

Hearing this, Liu Chuanwu stopped and immediately stepped back from the box to create distance.

The others, seeing this, also retreated.

"Zi Chen, what's wrong with this box?"

Song Yuyan looked at Lin Zichen, asking uneasily.

Lin Zichen's expression was grave, "I don't know, but I just sensed danger."

With that said, he focused his mind, levitated the box through the air, intending to toss this unknown dangerous cardboard box out of the research institute before dealing with it.

But at the moment the box rose into the air.

An accident happened!

The surface of the cardboard box suddenly sprouted vivid blood-red buds at a speed visible to the naked eye.

No sooner had these buds appeared than they instantly matured and bloomed, releasing a plethora of red pollen.

[You are suffering from an erosion by the flower poison of a high-level exotic plant, Red Matchmaker, poison resistance +1+1+1+1+1...]

Along with this prompt, Lin Zichen felt his body losing sensation.

He had been poisoned.

But with the blessing of [Immunity to Hundred Poisons], his sensory perception recovered completely in the next second.

"Hold your breath, don't inhale the pollen!"

Realizing that the pollen was toxic, Lin Zichen immediately warned the others around him.

At the same time, using the [Storage Space] biometric attribute, he collected his thoughts and stored the cardboard box inside, addressing this security threat for the time being.

On the other side, the few individuals nearby had already held their breath, not inhaling even a speck of the pollen. Continue reading at m|v-l'e -NovelBin.net

However, the red pollen didn't need to be inhaled; it could immediately incapacitate the prey just by contacting the skin.

In less than two seconds,

Everyone except Lin Zichen, one after another, collapsed to the ground, poisoned by the pollen, unable to stand up again.

They were merely weak in the limbs, yet still conscious.

"What's going on, who's attacking us?"

Song Yuyan asked, filled with unrest.

Liu Chuanwu remained comparatively calm, "Judging by this tactic, it's almost certainly Divine Plant Cult's doing."

"Lin Zi, the Divine Plant Cult's target is you, run quickly, don't worry about us!"

Shen Qinghan said urgently.

Ma Xiwei, lying beside her, wanted to say something too, but her vocal cords were paralyzed, and she was unable to speak.

Lin Zichen stood still, not leaving his colleagues behind.

He knew he could not escape.

His parents were here, and so was Shen Qinghan; if he were a person from Divine Plant Cult, once they failed to capture the target, they would surely go after the family.

Quiet the mind—

Focus the spirit—

The spiritual realm unfolded in an instant!

With the effect of [Advanced Spirit], Lin Zichen dispersed his spiritual power to cover the whole Shanhai University, scanning every corner.

He first scanned for his own parents and those of Shen Qinghan.

Thankfully, both sets of parents were safe and sound.

Lin Yansheng and Zhang Wanxin were watching TV in the living room.

Shen Jianye and Xu Meng were napping in their room.

The parents were okay, which was a relief.

But at this moment, Lin Zichen's brows were deeply furrowed, and there was no relaxation in him.

He had scanned the entire Shanhai University.

Yet there were no abnormalities to be found.

There was no sense of any exotic plants.

"Could it be someone other than Divine Plant Cult?"

Lin Zichen was somewhat doubtful for a moment.

However, he did not let his guard down.

Continuously dispersing his spiritual power, he repeatedly sensed every corner within his realm.

Several seconds later,

He detected seven powerful energy bodies in the direction of the administrative building, swiftly approaching the research institute.

Upon closer inspection, he saw they were all faculty members of the school.

Leading them was the Director of Academic Affairs of the school.

The remaining six were instructors from Evolution College.

Just after an incident in the lab, or rather, right after the cardboard box was handled, these seven people from the Academic Affairs office immediately rushed towards the research institute.

Without looking, it was clear that there was something off about these seven people!

With that thought, Lin Zichen did not stay in the research institute waiting for doom.

He headed immediately toward the populated teaching building.

He possessed [Social Animal], a special biometric attribute.

The more Earthlings there were within a certain range, the stronger he became.

Alas, he had barely burst out of the research institute when the Director of Academic Affairs, who had suddenly sped up, blocked his path.

"Lin student, why are you running so fast in the school? Is there some kind of emergency?"

Zhou Xiaohui, the Director of Academic Affairs, asked in the tone of a school leader.

Lin Zichen did not respond but instead took a quick step forward and threw a fierce punch at the other party.

Zhou Xiaohui did not expect him to strike suddenly, but he did not panic, just slightly sidestepped and easily dodged the sudden punch.

"So strong! He's a Rare Level Fighter!"

Lin Zichen was shocked internally, and immediately his heart sank to the bottom.

He couldn't understand how the mere Director of Academic Affairs from the school could have a Biological Level as high as Rare Level.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"
