Chapter 93: Talking about immortals and demons
When the footsteps of the last man faded away, the empty research hall finally fell silent.
I saw Xu Xian sitting alone on the computer screen, carefully studying the observation data of his colleagues during the day, and seemed to be immersed in it.
Frankly, the scene was a little scary when you think about it – imagine sitting alone in an extremely empty room, surrounded by nothing but countless jars of glass soaked in all sorts of humanoids.
Some of them can barely maintain their human appearance, some have grown with scales and have transformed into several slippery tentacles, and some have completely transformed into monsters with the head of a horse.
At the same time, for some reason, the air conditioner with strong refrigeration will blow cool air on the back of your neck from time to time.
That taste, tsk, is really only enjoyed by those who have actually experienced it.
And Wang Duofu is naturally a member of the army of bottles and cans.
It's just that at this time, he still maintains a state of being unable to move or speak normally.
In the entire room, except for the "pop" sound made by Xu Xian's occasional tapping on the keyboard, it seems that only the eternal "tick~tick~" sound emitted by the ECG monitor remains.
Just when Wang Duofu thought that the whole night would be spent in this palpitating boredom, that Xu Xian suddenly spoke!
"Hey, this gentleman, in fact, you can basically hear what I am saying now, right?"
Xu Xian didn't even look up, just whispered as if talking to himself.
His voice was originally not loud, but the entire hall was more quiet at this time, so that voice finally reached Wang Duofu's ears word for word.
It's just that the voice sounded in Wang Duofu's ears, but it was like thunder!
"How does he know I'm conscious?"
If the detection of electrocardiogram and brain waves at this time could be carried out normally, then Wang Duofu's data at this time was abnormal, and I am afraid that it would have already gone straight to the sky.
But apparently, there are no ifs.
"Oops, I almost forgot, with your current state, you can't communicate with me normally."
"But that's okay, I just need to know you can hear me."
"Anyway, the next thing to do is just for me to listen."
"Okay, if there's no problem, then we're just going to get started~"
“……”
Wang Duofu suddenly felt a slight pain in the egg.
Although it is said that the work of gathering intelligence has almost become an instinct after he enters the dungeon.
A free "intelligence peddler" like Xu Xian, who took the initiative to send it to the door, of course he did not refuse to come, and the more the merrier.
But he soon discovered one of these problems, that is, this Xu Xian in front of him was too wordy!
What can be said clearly in one sentence, he has to break it down into three or even four sentences to express it clearly.
And this contains a lot of meaningless, self-answering nonsense, but the other party just enjoys it.
What makes Wang Duofu feel even more uncomfortable is that the other party seems to be not very good at philology, and he doesn't know what the so-called "central idea" is, and he just thinks about where he goes.
As a result, it seems that the other party has said a lot of useful information, but in fact there is not a lot of information, and it takes a lot of experience to identify and filter.
But at this time, Wang Duofu had no choice, he could only listen carefully to every word that came out of the other party's mouth, and he was painful and happy.
But he said that Xu Xian was really a talent, and I saw that while he was talking, he didn't mean to stop what he was doing at all, as if he was possessed by a split personality.
"I think you're going to have a lot of questions right at this point, right? Like who I am, where I am, what will happen next for me, etc., etc. ”
"Okay, I'll answer your questions one by one."
"First of all, I'm sorry about the question of who you are, I don't know the answer either."
"Well, while this may sound like a, it's actually quite meaningful."
"For one, it makes you realize that you've lost almost all of your memories of yourself."
"As for the reason, I can only say that it is the result of the inevitable side effects of genetic modification technology."
"Second, for your life history, although there is no relevant record in the database."
"But according to the information I have, it is very likely that you, or you, were forcibly captured by the Black Dragon Society as an unidentified wandering beggar."
"This at least provides a glimmer of possibility for you to find your own background."
"As for what kind of place we're in right now?"
I saw Xu Xian pause slightly, and then pretended to stretch his waist, stood up straight, looked around and said:
"Geographically, we are currently located underground in a suburb of Xinhai City."
"By its specific nature and purpose, this is an illegal underground research institute that is destined to have no name."
"And this research institute is currently an industry belonging to the Black Dragon Society."
"You may ask, what is this 'Black Dragon Society'?"
"Well, to put it simply, the Black Dragon Society is a gangster!"
"Although as a Chinese, you may not have dealt with the underworld for many years."
"However, with the increasing openness of these international metropolises such as Shengjing City and Xinhai City, more and more foreigners have begun to come to China to study, start businesses, settle down, and even get married and have children."
"And with that, not only experts, scholars, professors, and international students, but also some people at the bottom of society and gang members who are looking for opportunities to get rich overnight."
"Among them, the gangsters of South Korea and Japan are the most."
"As far as I know, this so-called 'Black Dragon Society' actually has a long gang history."
"I heard that it was founded in a port city in South Korea about 20 years ago, and later made a lot of money in the increasingly frequent trade between China and South Korea, so I repositioned my eyes on China and prepared to open up a broader underworld market."
"But their infiltration of China did not go well at first."
"China is in good order, and the common people don't eat what they do in South Korea."
"As a result, it took more than half a year to toss, not to mention the loss of soldiers, and the loss of a lot of money."
"Later, I heard that they finally caught the line of a senior Korean official in ASEAN, and only then did they gain a foothold in China......
"Ah, it seems like a bit of a stretch, but it's not all nonsense, and I'll give you a science to help you sort out the next question - why you're here, and what your fate will be after that."
Speaking of this, I saw that Xu Xian's gold-wire glasses suddenly flashed with a layer of white light.
At the same time, his whole person's momentum also became slightly gloomy and angry.
"To put it simply, you're 'guinea pigs' for experiments."
"These gangsters have captured you here, implanted some animal genetic fragments into your bodies, and made you mutate to some extent."
"And after the mutation, you will have certain animal genetic qualities, such as the agility, reflexes and balance of a cat, or the ability to thermally image and secrete toxins like a cobra."
"But everything is balanced, and there is a price to pay for wanting to have these qualities."
"With very few exceptions, not only will your intelligence be greatly weakened, turning you into monsters that only know how to kill and eat, but your genes may collapse at any time."
"On top of that, you're at risk of being hunted by the Genetic Ethics Committee, oh, the legendary G-Agency."
"As for why would the gangsters do this?"
Saying this, the corners of Xu Xian's mouth began to sneer.
"Hehe, naturally it's because of the popularity of the genetic mutant underground gladiatorial industry."
"Through the live broadcast of mutant gladiatorial fights released on the dark web, and relying on this, the peripheral handicaps opened, as well as the buying and selling of mutant populations after the game, can create profits of up to hundreds of millions of yuan a year for them."
"Who would not be greedy for such a lucrative industry?"
Speaking of this, Xu Xian seemed to have finally fallen silent.
On the other hand, Wang Duofu was stunned when he heard it.
"When I first heard the name of the 'New White Lady' legend, I felt that something was not quite right, and after listening to the background introduction of the dungeon, I only felt more confused."
"Thinking about genetic engineering and the White Lady, what does it have to do with it?"
Wang Duofu muttered to himself silently in his heart, and then continued:
"I only realized when I heard Xu Xian's introduction, it turns out that this girl is a copy of a science fiction world!"
"It's just that the White Lady has anything to do with these?"
"Wait, huh?"
It seems that in order to verify the guess in Wang Duofu's heart, I heard Xu Xian suddenly say this:
"Oh, by the way, they seem to be more willing to call you 'demons' than genetic mutants!"
