Chapter 723: Control
Levi's actions startled both Wang Dong and Luo Qing, but what happened next shocked the two even more.
As the orb detached from Levi's forehead, he collapsed.
To be precise, it's like falling apart.
His body then turned into a puddle of blood at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned a dark gray of metal, as if he had died.
He's dead?
Isn't he not going to die?
Previously, Levi had mentioned that he was the same age as Emily's father, who joined Alamos Labs at the end of the 70s of the last century, and even if he was very young at the time, he must have been in his 20s, so he should be an old man in his 80s.
It's just that, looking at his appearance, he is only in his 40s.
Obviously, after combining with that substance, he did not age anymore and had an immortal body.
In addition, he also mentioned that if Wang Dong and Luo Qing had not come here, he would have stayed here, living a life that was worse than death, and would never be liberated.
So, how could he die?
Could it have something to do with that metal sphere?
Thinking of this, Wang Dong stretched out his hand and tried to grab the sphere hanging in the air.
The next scene startled Wang Dong.
Why?
As he reached out, the metal orb voluntarily retreated, keeping enough distance from him to avoid contact with him.
What's going on?
Almost at the same time, Wang Dong felt an abnormal movement in his body, as if something was resisting, preventing him from approaching the metal sphere.
"Hurry up!"
"Bang-"
Hearing this, Wang Dong realized that the sphere suspended in the air had begun to melt, and Luo Qing once again burst a liquid nitrogen tank.
Wang Dong tried again, and he shot extremely quickly.
Unfortunately, as before, when he tried to get closer, the metal orb voluntarily retreated, and the resistance in his body became more obvious.
"What are you doing?"
Luo Qing was already very anxious, because the sphere was not frozen by liquid nitrogen, ripples appeared on the surface, and it seemed that there was a very powerful force inside ready to be released.
"Here you go!"
Wang Dong didn't hesitate any longer, and after retreating, he threw a liquid nitrogen tank towards the suspended sphere.
"Me?"
"Less nonsense, that thing won't let me get close, you go and try."
"Bang-"
When Wang Dong shot and exploded the liquid nitrogen tank, Luo Qing made a move.
Unlike Wang Dong, when she approached, the metal ball did not retreat, she grabbed it, and then disappeared from her hand.
It was also at this time that liquid nitrogen was sprinkled and the suspended sphere was frozen.
"We need to get out of here right now."
Although Wang Dong didn't doubt what Levi said, he didn't think about staying here for the rest of his life, as for what human beings would be destroyed, Wang Dong felt that it was alarmist, at least not that serious, after all, no matter how powerful Emily's father was, he was just one person.
After saying this, Wang Dong rushed towards the door.
"Wait, don't go there!"
When Luo Qing shouted, it was already too late.
At the door, a sudden lightning bolt struck Wang Dong.
Actually, it's not lightning, it's electric light generated by hundreds of millions of volts, but the damage caused is no different from being struck by lightning.
Even Wang Dong will definitely not be able to bear it.
Fortunately, with Luo Qing's reminder, he had slowed down.
The moment he was struck by lightning, he stopped, and then he was bounced back by a huge force, which was actually the repulsion generated by the electric shock.
Almost at the same time, the floodgates hidden in the ceiling fell.
"Wang Dong ......"
"I'm fine."
Wang Dong gritted his teeth and got up, the right arm was slashed, the wound was very deep, it was burned red, it looked very scary, but it was fine.
"What's going on?"
"There's a detection device there, and whenever something tries to get out, it sends out a high-voltage electric current and closes the gate that's up to 2 meters thick." Luo Qing walked over, let out a long breath, and said, "Besides, the guards inside the base already know what is happening here, at least know that the things inside are trying to get out." In a few minutes at most, they will arrive and fill the room with liquid nitrogen. However, with the current situation, the guards will definitely not be able to arrive in time, so we have about 15 minutes left. ”
"How do you know?" Wang Dong looked at Luo Qing in puzzlement.
"It's all stored in that sphere, which is a computer-like thing that stores all the information that Levi has had over the last few decades."
"Controller?"
Luo Qing nodded and said, "Almost." There's a lot of other information out there, it's just that it takes time to sort it out. ”
"What now?"
"We have to block those pipes first." Luo Qing pointed to several pipe exits above him, and said, "When the guards activate the emergency refrigeration system, it can buy us a little time." Hypothermia does not harm us, but it can incapacitate us, that is, freeze. ”
Wang Dong didn't say anything more, and immediately started.
The solution is also very simple, directly destroy the gate of the pipeline outlet, so that the gate cannot be opened, and the liquid nitrogen inside cannot be excreted.
"What now?"
"That thing." Luo Qing pointed at the suspended orb and said, "Levi didn't lie to us, Emily's father was in there. Like Levi, he also has a controller that is able to control this substance, so Levi can't get rid of him on his own, he can only freeze him. If we can get rid of him, we'll be able to stop the matter from exploding, and we'll be able to get out of here. ”
"Explosion?"
Luo Qing nodded and said, "The power is very huge, dozens of times that of TNT explosives, enough to blow up a passage directly to the ground." Either way, we'll have to give it a try. By the time the guards arrived, they certainly wouldn't have treated us like Levi's. Even if one of us had to survive and continue to control that substance, there would be no reason to leave the other behind. ”
"Wait, you mean ......"
"Now, the controller is with me, so ......"
Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood, and grabbed Luo Qing.
"We have to do it now, we have to ......"
Wang Dong didn't explain much, but controlled the power in his body and showed it to Luo Qing.
When the metal sphere emerged from Wang Dong's forehead, Luo Qing was obviously startled, because she didn't expect Wang Dong to have this thing at all.
"You ......"
"Obviously, anybody, at most, can only have one controller, so I started to be unable to get close to that controller."
