Chapter 52: Heidi's Dependents
The research base's cafeteria was across the street from the library, not far from Luo's room.
Lowe didn't expect to meet Heidi again in the cafeteria. Or rather, he was a little surprised that Heidi, the highest speaker of the entire base, would be here.
The so-called high-level personnel in the old era were accustomed to opening small stoves.
Heidi didn't seem to have eaten much, and compared to Lo, who had a large pile of roast meat in front of her, Heidi only ate a few greens and began to wipe her mouth.
"How much longer do I have to stay?"
Lo kept stuffing the roast into his mouth, not caring about his image in the slightest.
The wilderness is not a place of etiquette, and if you eat enough, you can live long enough.
"The basic body detection data is out, and tomorrow I will test you for your ability potential. As for the hidden dangers in your body, I will need to wait for the results of the ability potential test to come out before I am sure enough. ”
Heidi looked at Lo, who was still burying his head in his mouth and stuffing the roast meat into his mouth, and replied.
Lowe had eaten enough roast to fill a guard team, but he didn't seem to be full, and his stomach was still flat.
"How long will it take you to be sure?"
Lowe is not an easy person to change the subject.
"If you can't wait, we can start now. But I'm not 95% sure, and I'm not a person who likes to let luck decide success or failure, even though my luck has always been good. ”
Heidi finally took her eyes off the vanishing pile of barbecue in front of Lore, stood up and walked out the door.
"After you think about it, you can come to me at any time. Anyone here will tell you where my office is, and I'm never used to locking doors. ”
Luo Zhi waited until he had completely eaten the barbecue in front of him before he raised his head and looked out the door.
He decided to be a little more patient and wait until Heidi was sure enough to deal with his own genetic chain, although he thought that his luck was not bad, Heidi was an authority in the field after all.
It shouldn't be wrong to take the advice of an authoritative source.
Heidi's office at the research base was unlocked, not even a door.
The top floor of the entire research base is full of her office, and there are no rooms, only a dense collection of various cold instruments.
There are also various miniature mechanical creatures that jump over the instrument from time to time.
Heidi was standing in front of a large LCD screen, glancing at the innumerable, rapidly changing numbers on the screen.
This is the basic data obtained from Lowe's body fluids.
The short after-meal period was Heidi's break, and she was used to using this brief period of brain dullness to process tasks that didn't require much brain cell consumption.
For example, memorizing the data on the screen that beats dozens of times per second, such as browsing some internal information of the family.
"Your Excellency Heidi, the Begu family placed an order twenty minutes ago, ** a batch of combat mechanical beasts, the payment has been paid, please confirm whether to accept the order."
A mechanical synthesized female voice came out, somewhat similar to Heidi's peculiar voice.
"Give them the batch of tests that failed last time. In addition, the next order must be exchanged for "polonium", and gold coin transactions will no longer be accepted, and the exchange rate will be increased by 30% on the basis of the family agreement. ”
Polonium, the most radioactive metallic element known to man, is not one of them.
"Your Excellency Heidi, I would like to remind you that unilateral increases in the exchange rate are expressly prohibited in the family trade agreement."
The mechanical female voice sounded again.
"Then let them find someone else to buy it."
Heidi said coldly, reaching out and tapping on the screen in front of her. The fast-jumping numbers were still.
"Patriarch Murphy, your father, inquired about the progress of the Sleeper hunt, and gave you a top-secret order from the family, ordering you to hand in the genetic stock sample of this issue within three days, Lord Heidi."
Heidi's brow furrowed slightly, not because of the message from the synthesized female voice again, but because she seemed to have found some anomalies in the vast ocean of data in front of her.
"Tell Patriarch Murphy that the Sleeper has left the wilderness and most likely fled into the ice field, let the clean-up of the ice field continue the pursuit."
Heidi was still thinking about the anomaly, but she didn't delay her from giving orders. The ability to multifunction was already possessed when Heidi was a little girl.
But she didn't make any reply to the matter of the gene stock.
"Your Excellency Heidi, the family's internal training camp will start in half a month and last for three months, and the family dependents have the right to sign up."
The synthesized female voice sent a third message, but did not receive any reply from Heidi.
Heidi's fingers fluttered rapidly over the screen in front of her, and the basic stats of Lowe's body began to jump on the screen again.
Countless numbers are like mischievous children, fleeting in Heidi's eyes.
Heidi suddenly reached out and tapped on the screen.
The jumping of numbers stopped, and she looked at one of the inconspicuous lines of numbers on the screen in front of her, narrowing her eyes slightly.
Cell life: 53 years.
This is data from Lo's bodily fluids, his cells have been around for half a century?
The global nuclear war has only ended for half a century, and Lowe was born before the outbreak of nuclear war?
He doesn't look like he's underage!
Heidi is confident in her instrument and even more confident in her field, and she designs analysis programs that never go wrong!
"What's the third message?"
Heidi's mechanical, cold voice resounded in the lab again, she hadn't forgotten the answer to her inquiry, she just wanted to hear it again.
"Your Excellency Heidi, the third message is that the family's internal training camp will start in half a month, for a period of three months, and the family dependents have the right to sign up."
The intelligent mastermind is not implanted with the emotion of "impatience".
"Use my authority to book a spot, and be my dependent."
Heidi finally gave the order and looked at the screen in front of her again.
"The directive confirms that His Excellency Heidi Cadivin, the chief scientific research officer of the Cardivan family, has reserved a place for the family's internal training camp to be attended by his dependents."
Heidi gave Lo a basic physical test again, and in addition to drawing enough blood, she even removed a small piece of Lo's tissue cells.
Of course, this operation was carried out after Lowe had been given enough sedatives.
Lo had lost his ability to resist toxins, but the dose of sedatives sufficient to make a giant elephant sleep for a week was decomposed and absorbed by Lo's body within half an hour.
"You'd better not eat too much food today, I'll test your ability potential tomorrow, I don't want to compromise the accuracy of my test because you're busy digesting the food in your stomach."
Heidi turned the research materials she had obtained into the large specimen storage cabinet next to her, and commanded Lowe, who had already sat up from the examination table.
Lowe had no objection to Heidi's request, and he had eaten enough food to last him for a month without eating or drinking.
"By the way, you need to confirm the attachment process later, and become one of my dependents."
Dependents? Attached to Heidi?
Lowe doesn't seem to remember that there was such an agreement in his deal with Heidi.
"The family research base does not allow non-family members and people in the wilderness to stay for a long time, unless you can find other better attachments to the family, or choose to wait in the wilderness outside the base."
Lowe didn't think Heyman was better suited to cling to than Heidi, nor did he think that he could now sustain Heidi's unspecified generosity in the radiant wilderness.
He seems to have no other choice but to choose to cling to Heidi, who is always cold-faced.
"What do you get by attaching to it? And what does it take to pay? ”
Lowe felt compelled to get some facts straight.
"It's just a formality, I've never confiscated my dependents, and I don't need any assistance from them. Your attachment is just in exchange for the right to stay here, after all, I am not the biggest speaker in the family. ”
Heidi may be right, but Lowe still feels as if he's hiding something from him.
"As for what you can get, you can enjoy the genetic medicine given by the family, and as my dependent, the medicine you get will be more satisfactory than other people's dependents, both in terms of quality and quantity. Also, the relatives of the dependents can be protected by the family and enjoy some of the benefits of the family, but you should not need this. ”
Luo was silent, and he began to feel a little apprehensive about the woman in front of him, who had never guessed.
Because you can't guess, you don't know, and the unknown produces fear.
Lowe eventually sells herself out and becomes Heidi's sole dependent, feeling uneasy despite having no physical restraints.
There is no physical restraint on Hades' attachment to him, but he can still control Hades' fate.
It seems that from the moment she stepped into this research base, Heidi had arranged every step.
