Chapter 599: Rebellion
In the empty room, a heart-rending cry suddenly sounded, which startled Song Jian, even if his psychological endurance was strong, he was furious by this sudden cry.
Thankfully, after the letter burned out, the crying slowly faded away.
Song Jian calmed down and noticed that a strange smiling face appeared on the wall in front of him, which looked as if it had been painted on the wall with burning ashes.
Song Jian could be sure that there was nothing on this wall until he took out the strange letter;
"Pretending to be a ghost!" Song Jian snorted coldly, summoned the Red Fire Heart Ape Sword, and slashed towards the wall in front of him, a golden sword aura suddenly appeared, and Song Jian felt as if he had chopped into a ball of cotton, with nowhere to focus.
And in his ears, he suddenly remembered the sound of glass breaking.
At this moment, the wall in front of it suddenly recessed inward, making a "boom" sound, revealing a black hole.
It was pitch black in this black hole, and it was impossible to see what was inside;
At this moment, a terrible roar pierced out of the black hole in front of him, and a pair of scarlet eyes shone towards Song Jian like two lamps in the dark;
"Who are you? Is it an adventurer who doesn't know whether to live or die again? It's quite capable of discovering this......" A strange voice sounded in Song Jian's ears, sounding like the noise of two dry pieces of wood rubbing against each other.
"Who are you and how did you end up here?" Song Jian clenched his long sword tightly, with a vigilant look on his face.
The pair of red eyes in the darkness stared at Song Jian for a long time, and finally let out a light sigh;
Then, a faint red light lit up around him, allowing Song Jian to see the scene inside;
This is a secret room of only more than 20 square meters, surrounded by an open space, only in the center of the secret room, there is a protruding half-human high stone platform, on the stone platform, a creature that looks like a human is tied.
This creature is more than 100 percent, exactly like a human, except for a rag around his waist, and his body is almost naked;
To Song Jian's surprise, the surface of this human body's body actually appeared with a tree-like texture, if it weren't for a pair of eyes that emitted scarlet light, Song Jian would even think that it was just a tree carving;
"Surprised? Or even think I'm a monster? A mocking sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his scarlet eyes stared at Song Jian and said, "If I tell you that I was originally a human being, do you believe it or not?" ”
"Are you poisoned? Something happened to your body? Song Jian frowned slightly and asked.
"Actually, I was originally a researcher at this floating base!" The "wooden man" who was bound to his limbs said helplessly: "In the process of research, there was a sudden rebellion in the base, and most of the researchers were killed, and I was infected with the Safiline virus, a virus that can mutify people. ”
"Rebellion? What rebellion? And what are you guys working on? Also, who are you? Since you've been poisoned, why are you tied up here? Song Jian frowned slightly, and a series of questions were asked.
I don't know how many years this base has been abandoned, and now there are still original researchers surviving, which is incredible;
"You have too many questions, I don't know much about that rebellion, just speculation, it should be our research, there was a major breakthrough, which led to the rebellion that broke out when some people wanted to take it for themselves."
"As for me, you can call me Sea-Man, just an insignificant ordinary researcher in this base!"
"Our research, hahahaha, do you also want to know what exactly we are studying?" He-Man's wood-textured face suddenly showed a crazy smile, and he laughed: "Our research is something that everyone who lives cares about, no matter how powerful you are, no matter how much wealth you have, once our research results are published, they will be robbed by these people!" ”
"What we study is ......" Seaman stared at Song Jian and said word by word, "We are studying eternal life!" ”
"Eternal life?" Song Jian showed a sneering look on his face and said, "You mean immortality? ”
"Stupid mortal, you dare to laugh at the great ......" Seaman seemed to be enraged by the look on Song Jian's face, and his voice immediately became grandiose, but soon, he seemed to sense something, and continued to explain with a cold snort: "Hmph, what do you know, what do you think that thousands of the most outstanding biologists of our empire are in this huge metal cage, and they don't see the light of day all year round, for what? Do you think that your wisdom and knowledge can be compared to the thousands of elite biologists of the Great Empire? ”
Seaman's words suddenly made Song Jian fall into deep thought: "Could it be that what this strange guy said is true?" The original research of this floating base was for immortality, not to make weapons of war such as puppet beasts? ”
Song Jian always thought that the research of this base was to be used for the military, but he didn't expect that his guess was wrong from the beginning.
"Can you tell me more about your research, He-Man?" Song Jian asked curiously.
"Of course there is no problem!" A strange smile appeared on He-Man's face, and he said, "It all started when the Empire discovered a strange plant, and at that time, I was only a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, just starting out......"
Seaman told Song Jian about the whole incident, when a huge empire discovered a plant full of life energy, which was the life vine that Anna said.
The sap extracted from this vine of life can have the miraculous effect of bringing the seriously ill back to life, and drinking a drop of the sap extracted from it can make a person at least twenty years younger;
This discovery made all the nobles of the empire crazy, and they did not hesitate to gather biological scientists from the entire empire to come to this floating base to study this plant;
In the process of research, it was found that this vine of life exudes a kind of energy fluctuation all the time, which can also be said to be a kind of radiation, and any living thing often undergoes abnormalities in this radiation environment;
These mutations have a good side and a bad side, but the unknown will always stimulate human curiosity, some researchers after discovering the property of life vines, they gradually changed the direction of research and began to study in the direction of stimulating evolution, which is also the culprit that created so many puppet beasts and other plant monsters in the copy;
The divergence between the researchers in the field of immortality and the researchers in the field of evolutionary research grew wider, and eventually, when no one could convince anyone, the purge and slaughter inevitably began.
