Volume 2: The Stairway to Heaven (33)
"ZS1066, today is a turning point in your fate, do you have anything to say?"
Three years of battling loneliness and pain have made Hou Ping physically and mentally resilient, and he is prepared for the coming verdict - others must not invest money and energy in him for no reason, and one day they will come to reap their own fruits.
Hou Ping calmly raised his head and turned his face towards the camera, after many drug injections, Hou Ping's face grew all kinds of strange fat, which looked very terrifying:
"After today, can I go out?"
"Do you think you can still get out now? After many drug injections, your DNA structure has changed, and there is no longer your information in the data of the C area, and in the eyes of ordinary people, you are now a non-xenomorph! ”
Xenogene
How far away it was before!
After the starfall, there are often such powerful and brutal things in the world
Reports of biological disasters inflicting on local ecology, but those things are separated from ordinary people by a membrane that cannot be pierced. Their appearance has forcibly divided the world into two, and the evolutionary, natural skills, and all kinds of xenomorphs that occasionally appear in front of the world and are quickly suppressed by the army have become the hottest topics of people before and after dinner. People discuss them with the same enthusiasm as they used to discuss celebrities or political secrets, never thinking that they can shake the order of the entire human race.
In the past, Hou Ping was also one of them, thinking that this would be extinguished like the flu brought to the earth by the passing of comets in the past, but after coming into contact with this power in this base, Hou Ping felt a deep fear.
After being injected with a variety of potions, Hou Ping found that his body was maintaining his IQ while being superhuman: more sensitive senses, stronger physique, faster recovery, and greater endurance of life force, and his condition was constantly strengthening.
If this kind of biological species reaches a certain number, there is no doubt that the society will begin to turmoil, I believe that the establishment of this base is to see the potential danger and huge opportunities, by the strong support of some ** departments and the establishment of specialized research institutions, so that can silently collect so many experimental samples in the society.
I believe that each tube of injections that embodies the most cutting-edge biotechnology is worth a lot of money, and the limited resources are naturally impossible to support hundreds or thousands of test subjects, when the experiment reaches a certain stage, the screening of experimental subjects has become an indispensable step, Hou Ping just does not know the criteria and methods of their screening.
After listening to the words of the person in charge, Hou Ping lay back on the bed with a calm expression.
"You're not curious about what's going to happen today, aren't you?"
Seeing Hou Ping so calm, the person in charge was a little curious about his reaction.
"I know what's going to change?"
"Won't"
"So what does it matter if you know it? I'm not prepared for whatever you want to do to me, and instead of adding to my troubles, I'd better get my strength and spirit up before it begins. ”
The person in charge behind the scenes was silent after hearing this, and Hou Ping didn't know if he didn't speak, or if he had already left, none of which had anything to do with him.
, know the reason, begging bitterly, or desperately scolding, but the person in charge has never done anything beyond the scope of his job responsibilities, and Hou Ping doesn't even know that he is tall, short, fat and thin.
"Bang la la"
Two armed men wearing exoskeleton armor opened the door of Hou Ping's room and stood quietly on either side of the door. Hou Ping got up with interest and walked out of the experimental center behind one person, which reminded Hou Ping of the words of the person in charge just now, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
"Not going to the lab today?"
"No, I'll take you to the criticality test today"
The mouths of these soldiers are not as strict as those scientific researchers, and the corresponding knowledge is very limited, Hou Ping did not continue to ask, because it is probably meaningless, and Hou Ping has been secretly guessing what the meaning of the 'critical test' represents.
Two heavily armed soldiers led Hou Ping through the disc area, into an unmarked passage, and then handed him over in a room with two guards standing at the door.
Hou Ping cautiously looked at the new environment he was in, this was an observation platform made of hard metal and special glass, through those glass walls several meters thick, Hou Ping could see that inside the wall was a huge circular space, the bottom was almost 20 meters away from his current position, except for the part parallel to himself was a glass wall several meters thick, the rest of the structural parts were still heterogeneous and strong special alloys.
It wasn't long before the guards escorting Hou Ping motioned for him to enter an elevator to the right of the room, and there was only one layer of buttons in the elevator—this elevator only went back and forth between the square below and the room.
"Ding~"
The elevator door was opened, and Hou Ping had already reached the bottom of the square.
"Walk to the square!"
Hou Ping obediently stepped out of the elevator and stood in this square the size of two football fields.
Hou Ping was not unaware that there would be great danger in the square later, but he had seen the collar around the neck of a companion who did not obey the orders of the base administrator emitting a sizzling electric sound, and then turning into a half-cooked hot dog pounced on the ground. Whatever challenges are coming, it's better than annoying managers to be killed without resistance.
Hou Ping waited in the venue for nearly an hour, and some other creatures were sent down from other directions, from huge mutated creatures to xenomorphs as small as mice, of course, there were also some of his kind, and soon the originally empty field became a little crowded.
While the venue is constantly changing, Hou Ping has almost understood what the organizers want to do, these creatures from different research bases will compete here today for one or several kings worthy of their continued capital investment, as for the losers...... All the creatures present didn't mind turning the weak who were not qualified to continue wasting resources into a part of their own body's energy - and that included Hou Ping!
It can be said that there are no weaklings in this field, so the first few hours of getting along seem more harmonious, but the passage of time has made it impossible for some of the more metabolic species to remain silent, and hunger has prompted them to start to anxiously sweep their gaze over the weaker-looking targets, thinking about the gains and losses of their brazen attacks.
Hou Ping showed his claws at the beginning, and curled up in a corner to take a defensive stance. This is a battle like raising Gu, to see who can survive to the end in the end, this game is not only a test of their physical strength, the right strategy and keen insight are also essential. In the end, the one who can be stocked is not necessarily the strongest among them, but it must be the strongest comprehensive ability among them!
Hours passed, and some creatures had used their prowess to climb the glass wall at the top of the field to avoid being attacked from many sides underground.
The base side is also in a state of acquiescence to this kind of cheating, at least as far as Hou Ping is concerned, those administrators have not given corresponding punishments. It seems that as long as you don't want to destroy the wall and base equipment, the management of the base will not interfere too much with the energetic xenomorphs.
The battle finally broke out the next day, and several tall and ferocious predators, unable to bear the constant hunger pangs that constantly invaded them, attacked the small xenos that were already in their recipes.
The first to succeed was a giant bear, which had a unique advantage in this environment without obstacles, and its exponentially increased strength allowed it to easily use its claws to slice open the body of any creature, and the thick layer of fat on its body made it immune to most of the deadly attacks, and after rampage through the xenomorphs of the square for a while, it killed the big boar that it had always coveted at the cost of a few more cuts on its body, and dragged it to its side to enjoy it.
The pungent smell of blood became the catalyst for the battle, and the xenos were already hungry and pounced on their targets, and for a moment the whole square was splashed with blood and screamed, and the weak creatures howled and struggled in the mouths of the beasts, but everything they did was in vain!
Thanks to the supremacy of human beings on the earth, for the time being, no xenos have put their minds on the humans in the field, and in the subconscious of those xenos, they have always tried to avoid the inheritance of humans.
By noon, the first round of fighting was over, and the able-bodied xenos had been given their own food, and after eating and drinking, they crawled comfortably next to the corpse of their prey, recovering their strength.
As the overlord of the earth, several human beings did not dare to move at all. Although they have also evolved, their physical fitness has improved several times compared to before, but as humans who have long relied on convenient tools to create better living conditions for themselves, they are inherently weaker than those xenos in terms of physique, and now xenos do not attack humans just because they have been living under the influence of humans before, and they have an instinctive fear of humans.
But if they dare to act, revealing their weak nature is almost tantamount to condemning themselves to death, so the humans present are patient, restrained, waiting for a leader who will twist them all into a rope.
"Hey, should we cooperate? Such a chaotic scene, if we do not unite, the result is only a dead end!"
After a day and a night, an individual with the designation ZS986 proposed.
The officer's proposal clearly moved the hearts of a group of people, and they echoed his call, and they came together to form a small interest group.
Hou Ping scoffed at that kind of childish approach, and there was no basis for mutual trust, so what kind of cooperation could we talk about? I'm afraid that as long as the team has the slightest problem, they will be scattered as birds and beasts, and one by one they will become the food of those aliens!
