George told Merlin that . This Montana lab is a biomodification site. M's mad scientists are conducting experiments on biological modification that are not recognized by the outside world.

Among the many experimental projects, one is specifically aimed at, or rather, trying to replicate Merlin's Black Mist abilities.

. M scientists named the project "Grim Reaper".

It's really hard to say what the brain circuits of those scientists think, but Merlin is standing in front of this cylindrical confinement facility at this time, and he looks at the black mist test subjects that are constantly gathering in the glass container, and he feels that this thing is really far from the "Grim Reaper".

"Whew!"

The subject in the glass container seemed to sense Merlin's gaze, and he quickly gathered into the image of a sturdy man wearing only boxers, lying on the edge of the glass cabin, smashing the glass cabin with his fist like a beast, and roaring and roaring at Merlin outside the cabin.

"It looks like I've lost my mind."

Merlin frowned, looking at the biomodified test subject in front of him.

Probably due to the initial completion of the experiment, the storage box next to the glass cabin also stored some textual materials about the "Grim Reaper" plan.

Merlin reached out and took out the information, flipping through a few pages.

"By maintaining the subject's cell tearing state, the subject's body can appear as a particle, and it has the property of atomization for a short period of time. However, in the state of extreme cell tearing, the test subject will endure pain far beyond the limits of ordinary people, which makes the test subjects of the 'Reaper' project completely lose their minds after several experiments. ”

"The pain drove him crazy."

"If we can't solve this problem, then it means that the Reaper project has entered a bottleneck. But I have a new idea, if pain is unavoidable, then why don't we design a special device that can temporarily paralyze the pain nerves of the subject during the process of nebulization? Or simply destroy the experimenter's pain nerves through experiments. ”

"That's probably a good idea."

This document looks like a journal summarizing the experiment, with the date at the end of the document.

The first phase of the Reaper program was completed a week ago, and according to their plan, after half a month, they would begin the second phase of the trial.

"Pain far beyond the limits of living things..."

Merlin looked at the subject in front of him who was yelling at him in the glass cabin, and said:

"That sounds terrible, maybe I should end your suffering."

With that, he stretched out his hand and tried to open the glass cabin in front of him.

But just as Merlin raised his hand, something suddenly came from the side, like a hidden weapon.

"Smack"

Merlin took the object in his hand precisely, and when he glanced at it, he saw that it was a banana, or banana peel, to be exact.

He turned his head and looked at the corner on the other side of the storage vault, where a large black cage was placed.

In the center of the cage, a black-and-gray gorilla in a silver vest squatted on a small stool like a human, pinching a peeled banana in one hand and putting it in his mouth, while looking at Merlin with a blank face.

That posture is like a real bystander.

What surprised Merlin was that in the orangutan cage, there were not only the same beds as humans, but also washbasins, bathtubs, curtains, and even toilets specially designed for orangutans.

"What does that mean, man?"

Merlin pinched the banana peel with two fingers, and he looked at the cage of orangutans, and said:

"Is this a gesture of goodwill? Or is it a manifestation of malice? ”

Faced with his question, the orangutan tilted its head, shoved the banana into its mouth, and scratched its head, in a posture that looked like a real orangutan, and it seemed to not understand Merlin's words.

"Don't pretend!"

Merlin said expressionlessly:

"Here it is. M's storage bank, those scientists wouldn't put an ordinary orangutan here, I guess, you're going to talk... Right? ”

"Well, it seems that my acting skills are really poor."

The orangutan shrugged his shoulders very humanly, and he took another banana from the plate on the table next to him, and while peeling the banana flexibly, he said to Merlin in a very pure accent:

"I'm codenamed X-39 here, but I prefer someone else called Winston, how about you? Stranger. ”

"Winston?"

Merlin looked very interested, he walked to the cage, looked at the orangutan, and asked:

"Why Winston? And not Paul, George or something like that? ”

"Because the scientist who saved me and brought me here in the first place is called Winston."

Winston the gorilla scratched his head, and he said to Merlin:

"According to your human traditions, I shouldn't have a problem inheriting his surname, right?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

Merlin threw the banana peel into the cage's trash can, and he said to the gorilla in front of him:

"I mean, why would you want to give yourself a human name?"

"Well."

When the gorilla had finished eating the second banana, it clapped its hands and said to Merlin:

"It was Grud who taught me. It tells me that since there is wisdom, then it is no longer a pure beast, and with wisdom there is a true soul, and a soul needs a code, a name. Gruder thought the code names given to us by the scientists were very insulting, so he suggested that I give myself a human name. ”

Winston looked at Merlin, and said solemnly:

"According to Grude, we are no different from you on a soul level, and you are no more noble than us. Well, while he and I both maintain the gorilla tradition and like to eat bananas, it's nothing. ”

"Grude? Who's that? ”

Merlin asked:

"Sounds like your friend?"

"Yes, it's my friend."

Winston sat on his little stool, and he winked at Merlin, and said:

"Grud was born in this base, it is different from me, it belongs to the product of natural genetic modification, and has extremely high intelligence since childhood, but 1 year ago, Grud escaped from prison, it doesn't like this place, it longs for freedom, it is eager to find more, intelligent compatriots, for this, it also stole some drugs in the base."

"It almost failed, but it was lucky enough to escape from the base. It promised to come back to save me, but a year had passed, and Grud hadn't returned. ”

At this, Winston shrugged his shoulders with some regret, and said to Merlin:

"There's a good chance that the cunning guy will release my pigeon, well, of course, maybe it's already dead outside. After all, I've seen in the news that humans aren't really kind to animals like us. ”

"Grud is also an orangutan?"

Merlin asked:

"Like you?"

"No, no, no, no."

Winston yawned, and said a little lazily:

"Grud is a silverback gorilla, I'm a chimpanzee, and we're just what we look like. But Grud is bigger, more ferocious, and more disgusted with humans than I amused, and he has been subjected to biological experiments by the scientists in this base since he was a child, and he has super strength, super speed, great perception, and psychic power that can control other people. ”

"In general, Grude is dangerous, much more dangerous than me. This is probably because the scientists at the base often read books to it... There is not only knowledge in the book, but also some more unique ideas, and Grud is fascinated by those free thoughts, and I feel that he has been immersed in them and cannot extricate himself. ”

The orangutan looked at Merlin, and he said:

"But as you can see, I'm not interested in those things, I'm just a normal orangutan who can talk, and I'm nothing compared to Grude."

"Okay."

Merlin nodded, he pushed his glasses, and said to the orangutan in front of him:

"Then why did you throw me a banana peel just now?"

He said:

"I don't think you're just kidding, are you?"

"Because you're doing something dangerous."

Winston looked at Merlin, and said:

"That black mist test subject is dangerous, I've heard that it has gone out of control several times, and each time it gets out of control, it kills a lot of D-class researchers. You shouldn't have released him so rashly without the restraint of energy, he's gone completely insane... Alas, what a wretched man, I sometimes feel that you human beings are much crueler to your fellow human beings than you are to us. ”

The orangutan sighed, and he looked up at Merlin, and said:

"Why can't we get along well and hurt each other? Oh yes, your glasses are great, I love them. I've always wanted a pair of glasses of my own, but the researchers wouldn't give them to me, probably because my eyesight was always good. ”

"Oh, is that so?"

Merlin reached out and took off his glasses, handed them to the gorilla in the cage, and said:

"Then I'll give it to you, I'm going to have a new one anyway, but you probably won't be able to bring it, your forehead is too wide."

"It's okay, just give it a little makeover."

Winston cautiously took the glasses, and the orangutan seemed to be overjoyed, until it saw Merlin's magma-like eyes again, and it staggered back in fright.

From the animal's instinct for danger, it blew the mane on its neck, and then bared its teeth at Merlin.

But soon, it was quiet again.

"You... It's unique. ”

The orangutan said to Merlin:

"I've never seen a human like you, you're dangerous, even more dangerous than the mad Grude."

"You're interesting."

Merlin brushed his hair, and he said to Winston:

"Wait here, and when I'm done, I'll take you out with me... I think your wisdom should come in handy at my base. Are you willing to go out? ”

"Yes."

Winston picked up his glasses, put them in front of his eyes, and looked at them, and said:

"Why not? I'm tired of being here anyway. You must be using me, the scientists say I'm smarter than 90% of the world's human beings. ”

Merlin returned to the front of the creature chamber that bound the black fog test subject, he reached out and opened the test chamber, and under the worried gaze of the orangutan Winston, Merlin was enveloped in the howling black fog in an instant.

But the next moment, a thicker, more gloomy black fog burst out, and almost instantly, Merlin broke free from his restraints, and in his left hand he held a cloud of smoke that was scattered and screamed endlessly, like a choking of an invisible enemy.

"Rest in peace."

Merlin whispered.

The next moment, his fingers tightened like tightened iron pincers.

"Click"

With a crisp thud, under the gaze of Gorilla Winston, all the struggles of the already insane black fog test subject stopped, and a corpse smashed at Merlin's feet, which was quickly ignited by the sudden flames and burned to ashes in a matter of seconds.

"That's it."

Merlin put away all the materials in the storage box at hand, then he looked back at Winston the gorilla, and he asked:

"You've lived here for a long time, haven't you? Can you tell me what's the use of all these things in this storage vault? ”

"Of course."

Winston pinched the glasses in his hand, and he babbled to Merlin:

"You can start with the first box, where it is stored. Samples of individual armed systems that M has been advancing in recent years, which include a set of smart combat suits, multifunctional combat eyepieces, and a pulse gun that can fire at multiple bands. The crystallization of M mechanical technology, it can turn a helpless person into the best soldier in an instant. ”

"The second box contains the research materials for the individual armed system."

"In the third box is a suit of armor, which seems to be from a family in Germany. The custom-made armor here is very traditional, just like the armament of your humans in the Middle Ages, but there is also the power of high technology in it. ”

"In the fourth box is a set of flying armor, which was a research project of the military, but now it seems to have been shelved, so that set of flying armor has only made a prototype."

"The fifth box contains a test subject of a high-tech defense robot, which they call 'Bastion'. An upgraded version of the defense robot used inside the M may undergo a large-scale refurbishment next year or the year after. It is powerful, and most importantly, it is equipped with the most advanced artificial intelligence chip at present, and it has its own personality traits, and of course, it is also terrible to start a fire. ”

"Inside the sixth case is a pair of Frost Pulse Pistols, which can quickly freeze enemies and be powered by energy, but they are not yet complete and are still in the stage of further research and experimentation."

"The seventh box is pretty good."

The gorilla pursed its lips, and said to Merlin with great interest:

"That's . One of M's important research results is that it is a small photonic engine, which I call a 'time accelerator', which allows the wearer to move at the speed of light in a short period of time, which is equivalent to changing time. ”

A twinkle flashed in Winston's eyes, and he whispered:

"It's worth mentioning that the design of this photonic engine was done by me and Grud."

"Huh?"

Merlin looked back at the gorilla in surprise and said:

"You never told me you were still a scientist?"

"There's nothing surprising about that."

Winston said indifferently:

"Those scientists genetically modified me so that I could help them with some complex designs... I'm an orangutan, I'm a beast, I have a unique imagination that humans don't have, and they need my imagination once in a while. ”

"What about this?"

Merlin patted the eighth, and last, crate, and looked back at Winston, who thought for a moment and said:

"That's the most ordinary thing."

"It contains a map and a frozen compass... I don't know what it was for, but I remember that when these two things were brought back, the chief officer of the base was very happy, and he said..."

"The mysterious super soldier serum is no secret again."
