## Chapter 367: Hardcore Treatment, Everyone Who's Experienced It Says It's Good!
"Knowing too much isn't a good thing for you."
Xia Shang didn't want to explain, nor did he deign to explain. He used his psychic power to pull open the steel manhole cover concealing the entrance, then followed the dimly lit stairs down.
"Understood." Golden Boy closed his mouth and followed closely.
"Oh, it's Mr. Jervis." The two guards standing at the entrance immediately raised their automatic rifles and aimed their gun muzzles at Xia Shang the moment they saw an outsider intruding. However, when they saw Xia Shang's face, they immediately lowered their guns, saying apologetically, "We are very sorry, we thought it was an illegal intruder."
Since meeting Stan Edgar last time, Xia Shang had replaced the deceased Shetty and become the actual controller of this underground research base.
"Take me to see Dr. Cardosa," Xia Shang said softly.
"Please wait a moment."
One of the guards, wearing a helmet and goggles, put away his gun, turned around, and entered the password into the access control device. Click... creak, the iron door was slowly pushed open.
"Please follow me." The guard led the two through the narrow corridor, turning left and right, and finally stopped in front of a door. He extended his right hand, pressed the doorbell, and leaned his mouth towards the honeycomb-shaped intercom, saying loudly, "Dr. Cardosa, Mr. Jervis would like to see you."
A moment later, the door was pulled open from the inside, and Kaduosa, wearing a white coat, appeared before Xia Shang.
"Golden Boy?" Kaduosa was startled at first upon seeing Golden Boy, then immediately took a step back as if by reflex. "How could he be here?"
His voice carried a hint of fear, afraid that Golden Boy would kill him out of revenge.
"Relax, Golden Boy is one of us now. He voluntarily wants to continue participating in the previous enhancement experiment. What you need to do is use Sam's blood as quickly as possible to enhance Golden Boy's Superpowers to the limit."
Xia Shang's words caused Kaduosa's suspended heart to settle back down.
"No problem, but it might take some time." Since he didn't need to worry about Golden Boy suddenly attacking and injuring people, Kaduosa calmed down a lot. He then led Golden Boy to the room where Sam was held. Looking through the barred window on the door, Golden Boy finally saw his brother from his memory, Sam.
"Sam, can you hear me? Sam?" He stood at the entrance, calling out softly.
At this moment, Sam in the room immediately stood up from the bed and ran excitedly behind the door. Through the window, he saw Golden Boy's eyes. "How dare you still come looking for me! Three years ago, if it weren't for you, I would have escaped long ago!"
Furious, Sam instantly lost complete control. Like someone with a rage disorder, he swung his arms and frantically pounded the iron door in front of him. Bang! Bang!! The huge sound quickly attracted the guards' attention. They were just about to walk towards the room where Sam was held, but saw Xia Shang shaking his head at them.
"Three years ago? What exactly happened?" Xia Shang asked Kaduosa beside him.
"He was a psychiatric patient transferred from Sage Grove Center three years ago. At that time, he almost escaped the facility, and it was Golden Boy who stopped him," Kaduosa explained.
"I thought they could cure your illness, but it turns out I was wrong. I apologize for what happened before." Golden Boy's heart was full of guilt, and he blamed himself, saying, "I don't expect you to forgive me, but I promise you, I will definitely let you out and let you regain your freedom."
But what greeted Golden Boy was the sound of furious pounding on the door! "Shetty! I'll never forget you calling me a freak! Why? Why could Mom and Dad do that to me? I don't want any Superpowers at all, my brain is broken!" Sam frantically hit his own head, constantly muttering, "I just want to be an ordinary human, an ordinary human."
"Mr. Jervis, are you sure you can cure Sam's illness?" Golden Boy hadn't expected that his brother Sam was sicker than three years ago, and unlike himself, Sam's illness was caused by his Superpowers, while his mental problems stemmed from Cate's memory modification.
"Open the door," Xia Shang said.
"Sam's current condition is very unstable and very dangerous," Kaduosa advised.
"Open the door," Xia Shang's tone was firm and carried a sense of command.
"O-okay... Alright, everyone, get ready."
Kaduosa turned his head and signaled with his gaze to the guards not far away. The seasoned guards immediately aimed their guns at the room's iron door. They put their index fingers on the triggers. If the situation went wrong, they would not hesitate to pull the trigger.
Then, Kaduosa had the security personnel in the control room open the iron door to Sam's room.
The moment the door was opened, Sam rushed out like a wild beast. However, the next second, he was directly kicked back in by Xia Shang. With a loud bang, it was as if the entire room was shaking. Kaduosa's and the guards' hearts also trembled. Monster! They couldn't help but exclaim inwardly.
"Quiet down. Now listen to me finish speaking."
Xia Shang calmly walked into the room and looked at Sam, who was embedded in the wall.
But Sam, in his frenzied state, wouldn't listen to anyone. He roared, his eyes bloodshot, then spread his arms and pressed his palms against the iron wall, pulling himself out with strength.
"Die!" Sam's legs erupted with immense strength. After stomping several dents into the ground, he pounced fiercely at Xia Shang.
Bang! Xia Shang lifted his leg and kicked heavily on Sam's chest. Crack... Accompanied by a few faint sounds of bones cracking, Sam's complexion turned red, and his body instantly flew backward. Pfft! He sprayed out a large mouthful of blood. The bright red blood was like a sprinkler in the air. He landed back in the original position, only this time, Sam no longer had the strength to pull himself out.
"Want to become an ordinary human? A very simple wish." In an instant, a pillar of flames shot out from Xia Shang's chest. The violent flames instantly filled the entire room. Of course, under Xia Shang's control, Sam did not die, still having half a life left.
Beep beep beep!!! The smoke alarm on the room's ceiling suddenly sounded. Immediately after, a large amount of water sprinkled down, extinguishing the flames.
"Sam." Golden Boy rushed into the room and came to Sam's side to check his injury.
"My Superpowers are gone, my Superpowers are gone!"
Ecstatic, Sam felt his brain was more comfortable than ever before.
