NovelEnglishCongratulations for what? He had indeed coveted that badge once, but now he didn't even reach out to touch it.
Instead, Phil toyed with the badge in his palm for a moment before solemnly pinning it to Philip's chest.
Suddenly, Philip felt like he was suffocating; his heart weighed down as if something was trying to burst out of its cage.
He took a deep breath, glanced down at the badge on his chest, and swatted Phil's hand away. Phil shot him a wary look, then
stood up and headed towards the door.
After the door closed, Philip felt a wave of irritation engulf him, a kind of restlessness he couldn't put into words.
He took another deep breath, pulled out a cigarette from aside and lit it, just as a roar erupted from outside. It was like the roar of
a beast.
He flicked the ash, got up and walked to the hallway to investigate. The hallway was in chaos. Subject 8 had been released, and
gunshots filled the air.
Apart from the gunfire, a white mist was rising, spreading rapidly and soon the space was shrouded in a foggy haze.
The researchers in the hallway panicked, curling up in corners, fearing they would becthe target of the lethal weapon. He had
a particular disdain for researchers; at least ten had perished under its wrath.
Without the protection of glass walls, the unarmed researchers were nothing but ants in his eyes.

lan had thought to flee with the crowd, but then he heard Walter's voice.
"What in the hell is this?!"
Normally, each compartment was secured with a code lock, but this weapon was unstoppable - it simply smashed the locks with its
fists, like an untamed beast.
A glint appeared in lan's eyes, and he instinctively moved closer to Subject 8. Walter was shoved back a few steps by the weapon,
never having seen anyone so strong, especially someone who looked to be just a teenager.
"Bang bang bang!"
The weapon tore through countless locks, causing sparks as wires short-circuited, and soon a fire broke out. lan grabbed Walter
and tossed him a handkerchief.
"Cover your nose."
"What's this?"
Before he could finish, lan strapped a mask over his mouth, "Time's almost up."
Walter noticed lan's pocket was stuffed with more masks, all with a peculiar scent - they had clearly been soaked in schemical
solution.
Remembering lan's instructions from the previous night, Walter quickly made use of the handkerchief and mask.
lan had learned about the effects of the drugs from Sarah and how to compress them into gas. He had placed dozens of canisters
of compressed gas in the air ducts, which would soon spread throughout every corner with the direction of the air flow.
He didn’t dare to do it before, worried that the vents didn't reach the higher-ups' location and the plan would fail. But now that he
was sure they were all in North America, there was no need to worry.
The compressed gas was a hallucinogenic drug that made people see their worst fears and fall into terror. Soon, the hallways
echoed with screams and wails.
"Walter, follow me."
Subject 8 was heading towards another access point. The place led to the beast pens, where the most ferocious creatures were
kept to discipline anyone who thought of escaping.
To call it discipline was a euphemism; it was more like feeding the disobedient to the beasts. There were thirty ravenous beasts in
those pens, always kept in a state of hunger.
lan approached the massive gate and used one of the already dazed guards to scan for entry.
With a ding, the gate swung open. Walter's eyes narrowed violently at the sight of the roaring animals.
"lan, if these beasts get out, the research base is going to lose more than half its staff."

"Everyone, stay right there."
After that command, a piercing bell rang out.
lan's brow furrowed, and then he realized the bell seemed to have a magical power; those who had been trapped in nightmares
instantly woke up as if nothing had happened.
The voice spoke again, "You have ten minutes to restore order. Someone will cto repair the broken gates and find out the
cause of this chaos."
