The route to the underground laboratory didn't change much, and following the directions on the map, Qi Lin and Lucas quickly found a lift to go deeper underground.

The elevator, like the gate of the external passage, can be opened by swiping a card, and there are no other verification steps.

As the depth numbers on the display continue to increase, the elevator quickly descends to the depths of the earth.

The prom Foundation's lab, located on the basement floor, stops as the number on the screen turns to 65, and the elevator doors slowly slide open to the sides.

"Here we are."

Qi Lin and Lucas glanced at each other, and then walked out first.

At first glance, the design style of the foyer is quite similar to that of the 404 base, both the walls and the ceiling are made of silver metal plates that have been atomized, which is full of futuristic sci-fi atmosphere, but the floor under the feet is paved with a kind of jade marble, and the two brass lamps placed in the corner of the foyer are definitely rare works of art.

Although these are two diametrically opposed things, when the modern technology style of the introduction and the lavish classical art style merge with each other, the sense of incompatibility and conflict suddenly disappears, and it is clear that the designers of this underground laboratory have quite a high level of artistic attainment.

However, this was not something Qi Lin needed to care about, as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, his eyes first scanned a few corners of the ceiling, and to his surprise, not only was there not a single guard in this hallway, but even the surveillance cameras that could be seen everywhere in the shelter.

With the vision after turning on the Eagle Eye, even the pinhole camera Qi Lin could find it hidden behind a small hole a few millimeters in diameter, but the truth told him...... There is indeed not a single camera installed in this foyer.

However, while looking for the camera, Qi Lin found that there were a few drops of blood on the ceiling that had already dried up and blackened, these blood stains seemed to have been sprayed up, and he wanted to make human blood splash more than six meters above the ground.

Qi Lin didn't know what had happened here, but there must be a reason why the mastermind didn't install a camera here...... And one of the most likely reasons is secrecy.

There are so many secrets hidden in this lab, some of which are not allowed to be recorded, whether in the form of paper documents or electronic data.

Passing through the hallway is a straight corridor, there are airtight doors every ten meters on both sides of the corridor, but what makes Qi Lin feel a little headache is that these airtight doors are not like before and can be opened by just swiping a card, and there are fingerprint readers next to the door locks, which makes him have a headache.

For this kind of cryptographic system that needs to recognize fingerprints or iris, Qi Lin has not thought of cutting off the researcher's fingers and gouging out his eyeballs before...... But at that time, time was too tight, and Qi Lin had no means to preserve the "parts" taken from the corpse, so he dispelled this idea.

But the question now is how can they open the airtight door of the laboratory......

At this moment, an airtight door in the middle of the corridor suddenly opened from the inside, and a tall researcher in a white coat walked out of it, and when he saw Qi Lin and Lucas, he said, "Knox, why did you get there?" You've wasted twenty minutes of our group's time, and you must know that even with a continuous supply of oxygen, the subject's nerve cells only have a little over an hour to live after the death of the subject......"

The chattering researcher immediately stopped talking after making eye contact with Qi Lin, and in the next second, his hand was already reaching for the pocket on the white coat

"You're not Knox! Who are you?"

Before he could finish his words, Qi Lin had already taken out his gun first, and with one shot, he opened a hole the size of a basin in his chest, and a large area of minced flesh and blood plasma was immediately sprayed.

"It's exposed, rush straight in!"

Qi Lin whispered to Lucas, stepped over the corpse on the ground, and rushed into the laboratory!

There were only three researchers in the laboratory, and before they could react to what was happening, the Gauss pistol in Qi Lin's hand named them one by one, with the power of the Gauss pistol, even light power armor could shoot through, and these researchers, who basically had no protective gear on their bodies, could not even leave a complete corpse after being shot.

Although the scene looked a little bloody, at least it saved the trouble of checking and refilling the gun.

However, when Qi Lin's gaze shifted to the experimental table, his figure paused for a moment......

On the test bench lay the body of a girl**, her hair had been shaved off, her head was slightly tilted back, placed in a sink filled with ice cubes, hoses were inserted in her nostrils and mouth, and dozens of long steel needle-like electrodes penetrated her skull and pierced directly into her brain.

"Aya......

Qi Lin immediately rushed to the front of the experimental table, looking at the familiar face, he subconsciously reached out and touched the girl's arm......

Cold, bone-chilling, the girl's body had apparently just been taken out of the freezer, and she had been brutally killed before it could be placed in the freezer.

An indescribable rage surged through Qi Lin's chest, and he felt the urge to destroy everything he saw at all costs......

Despite his wisdom, he still had the upper hand in the end, but Qi Lin's mentality had fallen to the bottom.

I ended up being a step too late...... I can't do anything, I can't save anyone......

A huge sense of loss came up, and Qi Lin even had a thought of wanting to give up.

Is there really a chance of winning against the organization and mastermind who control all the resources of the entire human society with the power of one person?

"You...... Are you okay? She...... She can't be the girl you said you were going to save, right? Lucas saw that something was wrong and cautiously patted Qi Lin on the shoulder.

"I'm fine...... I was just...... I'm just a little ......."

"I just want to tell you that the girl you want to save may not be dead yet." Lucas suddenly picked up the experiment report on the experimental table next to him and handed it to Qi Lin.

"Not dead?!"

Qi Lin was stunned for a moment, glanced at the face of the corpse on the test table again, and then quickly snatched the report from Lucas's hand.

……

"Clones...... It's actually a clone......"

After reading the experimental notes, Qi Lin realized that the corpse lying on the experimental table was just a clone of Ayakui, and then, Qi Lin found a serial barcode on the sole of the corpse's feet that was exactly the same as the one on the experiment report, proving that the corpse was indeed the clone mentioned in the experiment report.

I don't know why, after knowing that the corpse was a clone, Qi Lin suddenly felt that the sense of loss had dissipated a lot, but the heavy pressure had not been reduced at all, but was still increasing.

Although this corpse is only a clone of Ayakui, Qi Lin's current safety of Ayakui herself is still unknown, the organization and the mastermind belong to the kind of existence that will do anything to achieve the goal, and Qi Lin cannot guarantee that Ayakui will still be alive now.

The fact that these researchers used Ayakui's clone for experiments does not mean that they are reluctant to use Ayakui's body for experiments, and in any case, if they want to get the best experimental results, the clone is definitely inferior to the main body.

Moreover, this is only a five-person research team, and judging from the size of this underground laboratory, the number of researchers in it is probably in the thousands, and this corpse is only one of hundreds of clones.

"Lucas, drag that body in the hallway in." Qi Lin walked around this laboratory while directing Lucas, but unfortunately, he basically didn't know much about those high-end experimental equipment, and the data displayed on the screen was even more confusing.

"I still suffer the loss of no culture...... I knew I should have kept a ...... alive."

Lucas dragged the corpse of the researcher outside, then pressed the "clean" button next to the airtight door, only to see the ceiling at the top of the hallway split to the sides, and a high-pressure mist mixed with disinfectant gushed out of the protruding nozzle, and the blood and minced flesh were washed into the drains on both sides of the corridor, and then washed away by the water gushing out of the drains.

It seems that these laboratories should often deal with similar things, so the cleaning facilities are also quite perfect, and in this case, it actually provides a lot of convenience for Qi Lin to destroy the corpse.

"This guy is that Conrad." Qi Lin collected the credentials of several researchers, and one of the three researchers he killed in the lab was Researcher Conrad mentioned by the guard, and he was also the leader of the research team.

Although Qi Lin couldn't understand the role of the experimental equipment and the data on the computer screen, he could still understand some of the experimental reports, and the goal of the experiment was to "extract" the mental consciousness of the clone Ayakui from her brain, and then import it into the brain of Lucas, who was supposed to be the test subject, to simulate the process of Qin's "seizure" of the clone.

However, judging from the previous experimental reports, they have experienced several failures, and the main reason for the failure is that they are completely unable to capture the mental mind of the clone in an unconscious state.

Psychic abilities are different from other abilities, their abilities cannot be completely copied by cloning, theoretically speaking, each clone of Ayakui can inherit different abilities from the main body, and there will even be "waste bodies" that have no ability inherited at all.

And these clones are all quick products, from embryonic development to this state, it took less than eight hours, and their own genetic sequences are also in a state that may collapse at any time, the situation is very unstable, like this kind of clones, the only value of itself is only to use it for ** experiments, their consciousness is completely in chaos, and they can't even open their eyes and wake up.

The reason why these researchers were experimenting with these clones was simply to extrapolate some data related to that experiment back then, and according to Qi Lin's guess, those data should have been recorded on the pages that were torn out of the file.

No matter who tore off those pages of the file, all in all, he did Qi Lin a great favor, and this move would at least cost Qi Lin dozens of hours.

"What are we going to do next?" Lucas closed the airtight door of the laboratory and turned to Qi Lin to ask.

"Search this lab first and see if you can find some useful information, if you can know where Qin and Ayakui are locked up now, it would be the best." Qi Lin said, sitting down in front of the computer.

It's just that looking at the screen in front of him, Qi Lin didn't know how to proceed with the next step at all...... The computer operating system used by these researchers was something Qi Lin had never seen before, neither the Windows operating system and the DOS operating system common for home personal computers, nor the military OS used in the military, but a completely new operating system, and the interface style was very different from the computer system of the old era.

"Damn it...... Lucas, will you use these computers? Qi Lin turned around and asked Lucas, who was rummaging through the filing cabinet.

"Uh...... No, the computer terminals we use on the surface are very simple touchscreen controls...... Well, just like the old days of smartphones, this kind of thing, to be honest, this is the first time I've seen it. ”

"Okay......"

Qi Lin looked at the screen, and then looked at the keyboard, but the keyboard didn't do any tricks, it was still the 104 keyboard that Qi Lin was familiar with, he tried to hit the esc key, but there was no reaction on the screen.

"That's not right...... ESC should mean exiting, no matter how the operating system changes, the input instructions of the keyboard should be the same......"

Qi Lin thought like this, and at the same time casually tapped the "enter key".

At the moment when the enter button was pressed down, a slight noise suddenly sounded inside a device placed next to the test subject, and faint arcs of electricity flashed over the needle-like electrodes inserted in the clone's head, and the clone corpse, which had been lying motionless on the test table, suddenly began to spasm and convulse.

This is not a "deception", but a conditioned reflex made by the muscles and nerves that have not yet completely died when they are stimulated, seeing this scene, Qi Lin immediately stood up and went around to the side of the experimental table.

Next to the clone, there was still an empty seat large enough for an adult to lie down, if Qi Lin guessed correctly, this position should have been prepared for Lucas.

And the enter key that I just typed started the experiment that the research team had not started because another test subject had not yet arrived! 2k reading web
