Chapter 494: Clones
Chapter 224: Clones
Behind the door is a semi-circular platform, and directly outside the platform is a huge laboratory measuring about 300, 100, and 20 meters in length, width, and height. Thousands of transparent containers are neatly arranged in the lab, each connected by a large number of pipelines. Each container was filled with a green liquid that seemed to have something inside.
"When did Fran's arsenal become a biochemical lab?" Lin Zaishan asked.
"Maybe it's just a septic tank."
Lin Zaishan jumped down from the platform to check on a container up close, and suddenly let out an exclamation. Fridge immediately followed up and was speechless when he saw the contents of the container. It was not a plant or a fish in the water, but a person, a naked-naked, young woman. This woman is covered with all kinds of pipes, slender and toned; But because it's in the green liquid, it looks very weird.
"Guess she's alive or dead?" As he spoke, Fritsch took out his phone and filmed vigorously.
"Monk, isn't it a bit obscene for you to shoot like this?"
"You know what? I'm going to leave evidence and report it to the Church of Latter-day Saints. ”
Lin Zaishan used his ability to probe the inside of the container, "She should be dormant. I'm curious about how a living person gets into a petri dish of biochemistry. ”
"Maybe she's just terminally ill, so she wants to prolong her life in this way."
"Really? Isn't it strange that an arsenal takes on this kind of business? ”
As the two men conversed, they looked around the other containers, and found that many of the people in the containers looked almost identical.
"I see." Lin Zaishan restrained his excitement, "These are not terminally ill people, but clones!" Fran Arsenal is conducting cloning experiments. ”
Fritsch seems to have anticipated this astonishing conclusion and continues to shoot the lab with professional action.
Dr. Sam let out a cheerful whistle in Lin Zaishan's mind, "You should understand by now, there are more perverted people in this world than me." It seems that the quality of their work is not bad, and I have been worried about the scarcity of able-bodied test subjects lately, and your findings are just the right thing to help me solve this problem. I'm now asking you to release a clone out and bring it to the surface, and I'm going to see how adaptable it is. ”
Lin Zaishan walked to a remote corner alone and replied softly, "Doctor, don't mess around anymore. These are cloned people, and there are a lot of ethical issues with releasing them. ”
"Ethical fart! It's the end of the lawless world, everyone only cares about their survival in the present 10 seconds, who cares about the ethical problems brought about by a clone? If you don't do what I ask, I'll reduce your vibrations to 10%. ”
"Okay."
There was no control panel on the transparent container, and Lin Zaishan walked to a control room in the distance. He used his ability to crack the electronic access control in the control room, killing the two Tier 1 zombies inside, and then sat down in front of the console and began to operate.
A dialog box pops up on the console computer asking for the administrator password. The difficulty of cracking the password of such a complex system is not the same as that of electronic access control, for the latter, as long as a switch is activated cleanly; For the former, if it is messed up, it is very likely to destroy the entire system.
Lin Zaishan said to Dr. Sam: "I don't have an administrator password, so I can't continue to operate. ”
"I'm sure you can crack it with your wisdom. Hurry up and don't force me to be rough. Dr. Sam threatened in his head.
Lin Zaishan turned around and bent down to search for the two corpses on the ground, and after finding nothing, he passed through the door behind the console and entered the locker room. It was much easier to crack the locks of these locker rooms, from which he managed to find a state-of-the-art-looking handheld computer. He charged the handheld computer with electric shock, then turned it on, rummaged through the files, and found a file called "My Personal Memo", and when he opened it, he found a large amount of private information inside, including the password to the giant lab console.
He returned to the console and entered the password he found, and smoothly entered the management system, from which he could monitor and adjust the situation of each container in real time, and recorded detailed historical information about each clone.
He found the option to release the clone in the menu, and then clicked on a random container, and a screen about the container popped up on the display, and the clone inside was a sturdy white man, and the pop-up form asked, "Do you want to release the clone?" ”
He was still hesitating, but Dr. Sam in his mind was urging, "No. 2222, if you don't want to die, click the OK button quickly!" ”
Lin Zaishan had no choice but to comply. Then a selection menu pops up on the display, and it says, "Please set the background information, personality traits, life memory, and knowledge and skills for the object you want to release." ”
"Huh? And this kind of setup? Lin Zaishan breathed a sigh of relief, so at least he wouldn't release a perverted demon. After carefully checking it, he selected the items such as "Middle-class Family, Friendly Personality, Ordinary Life, and Computer Expert", clicked to confirm, and then a progress bar appeared on the display, and the number slowly increased.
//////
"Tell me, what are you doing?" Fritch suddenly appeared behind him.
Lin Zaishan was taken aback, "Why are you like a ghost." Then he showed him a note that he had just secretly written in Chinese behind his back, and replied, "I want to release a clone and come out to see." ”
"Well, it's really worth giving it a try. If the people released are strong and perverted enough, the population of our country can be replenished to a certain extent, and the Saints of the Last Days and John will gain more new forces. ”
The two of them stared intently at the screen, and it took a full 30 minutes for the progress bar to reach 100% and the release was complete. A complex robotic arm reaches over the target container, opens the lid of the container, frees the clone from numerous pipes, and then packs the clone into a plastic bag and places it in a small self-controlled tram on the ground. The tram carried the clone slowly into another room next to the control room.
Lin Zaishan and Fritsch glanced at each other and walked to the room together. There are 10 separate transparent compartments in the room, and the clone has been placed on a bed in one of the compartments and secured. The clone had not yet awakened, his chest and abdomen heaving rapidly, apparently adjusting to natural breathing.
"You believe in God, don't you feel that this kind of industrial creation of man is against God's will?" Lin asked Fritsch in the mountains.
The latter replied indifferently: "Man was created in God's own image." To me, as long as a living being has the 'appearance of a human being,' then he is a human being. I don't care if it's a good guy or a bad guy, a saint or a pervert, born in a mother's womb, hatched from an egg, born on a tree, or cultivated from a container. In fact, as long as it will be useful to me and to the saints of the last days, even if it is a perverted demon, I can accept it. ”
Dr. Sam, who was in Lin Zaishan's mind, said loudly, "This time I stand on the side of this robed king. ”
"Poof", the clone in the isolation cell protrudes from a mouthful of water, opens its eyes, and turns its head outside. "How did I end up here? Where is this? What the hell is going on? ”
Lin Zaishan turned to Fritsch with a mountain face, "Wise man, why don't you explain it to your fellow countrymen?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't know if he will survive an hour."
Lin Zaishan comforted the clone and said, "Don't be afraid, you are just seriously ill, you have just been cured, and you have to be isolated for a period of time." ”
"Can I contact my family first?" The clone asked anxiously, alarmedly.
"If you die, you'll be able to see them." Fritch replied coldly.
The clones struggled desperately, but to no avail. After a few minutes he seemed to get weaker and weaker, and fell into a coma, eventually becoming motionless.
"This weak chicken is dead." Fritsch was as calm as seeing a dead ant.
Lin Zaishan sighed, "The problem is that he is not completely dead, and he is about to be transformed." ”
As soon as the words fell, the clone opened its eyes and looked terrifying, breaking free with a force far beyond ordinary people, and then pounced violently in the direction of the two, slamming into the transparent glass, and thrashing hard.
//////
Fritch said, "I'm going to the -17th floor to hunt for treasure." Then I went to the elevator room.
Lin Zaishan returned to the console and the management system prompted: "Clone M7681 failed to be released, is it cleared?" ”
He was convinced that the clone had been transformed, and he did not hesitate to choose to be sure.
Flames erupted from above the cell, burning the corpse clone to ashes in the blink of an eye.
"Ninety-nine percent of people become infected after exposure to cadaveric poison." "As of now, there is no solution to the corpse poison. The so-called antidote to corpse poison only curbs the spread of corpse poison in the body, and it must be used in the early stage of infection to be effective. ”
"Thank you for your popular science, since most people will be infected with corpse poison, then let's not release clones indiscriminately."
"It is a great crime to leave such an important resource unused." Dr. Sam sneered, "I'm going to wronged you to suffer a little bit, I'm going to teleport Rachel over a long distance." ”
Lin Zaishan immediately noticed that the energy of the programmable particle control system in his body had skyrocketed, accompanied by great pain. He knew that moaning and shouting would not help at all, so he gritted his teeth and activated the state of cascading meditation, calmly observing the energy fluctuations of each light point in his body, and memorizing all the information he obtained into the sea of consciousness.
Soon, Rachel was teleporting over a long distance and began to hack and take control of the console computers of the giant lab.
"No. 2222, there's nothing to do with you here." Through the monitoring equipment in the control room, Dr. Sam saw Lin Zaishan lying on the ground. "I have to say that the information security work of the Fran Arsenal is still relatively strict, they have all the basic configuration information solidified in the hardware, if you want to permanently control this laboratory, you have to disassemble and assemble a large amount of hardware, which is almost impossible under the current technical conditions of the end of the world. So, Rachel is only temporarily invading the memory of the console computer, and once the computer restarts, we will have to hack again. ”
"Sounds disappointing." Lin Zaishan struggled to get up, he didn't want Sam, a pervert, to control this equally perverted laboratory, the consequences were too terrible.
"I told you you could get out of here." Again, Dr. Sam emphasized.
Lin Zaishan picked up his backpack and slowly left the control room. He first searched for some miscellaneous things in the back locker room, then walked around the giant laboratory for most of the time, found the maintenance room on this floor, searched inside, and finally came to the isolation room.
Another 10 clones were released and placed in quarantine for observation, 10 men of various shapes, males and females, of all skin colors.
After a few minutes, all the clones awoke, but 9 of them were transformed, and only 1 young female clone was still unconscious.
"What a bunch of useless stuff." Dr. Sam accused, "Why don't these fools at Fran's Arsenal choose some good genes as templates for cloning, and why don't they be genetically optimized when cloning?" ”
"I bet they've done all the work you're talking about." Lin Zaishan said: "But they are based on the environmental conditions before the end of the world. ”
"Rachel, clear these failed objects." Dr. Sam gave the order.
"Wait a minute." Lin Zaishan looked at the female clone, "She still has signs of life, and she moved just now, I didn't sense her corpse." ”
"Hmph, I don't take extra care of my subjects just because they have sexy bodies." Dr. Sam's tone was cold, "Rachel, let's do it now!" ”
Lin Zaishan couldn't tolerate a living person being burned to ashes in front of him, even if it was a clone.
He swallowed a crystal, cast speed, and rushed in front of the clone in the isolation chamber's fire, using the Concentrate Ice ability as protection to untie her, pick her up, and rush out.
"Sure enough, it's a loser who has never seen a woman." Dr. Sam taunts Lin Zaishan while watching the fire in the quarantine cell through surveillance.
The female clone in her arms had a very faint heartbeat and breathing, but was apparently alive. Lin Zaishan infused a wave of qi energy, and the vitality of the clone increased. "It seems that she has a very good chance of surviving."
Suddenly, Fritsch appeared behind a container and looked at Lin Zaishan in surprise, "I've only been out for such a short time, and you actually got along with a female clone?" ”
"This is the only one of the batch that was released just now that there are no corpses."
"Just now you mocked me for the obscene actions of filming, have you found that you are now greedily holding each other in your arms and looking extremely obscene?"
"It's not that I'm obscene, but this giant laboratory has been infected, and there is corpse poison everywhere, I'm afraid that after putting her on the ground, she will be infected with corpse poison if she is not careful, so won't it be wasted?"
"Whatever you want, no need to explain. I'm here to tell you to go to the -15th floor, it's full of useful individual equipment. ”
"I'll go, you've already searched for the 15th floor?"
//////
At this time, outside the arsenal, a strong wind blew, dispelling the fog on the sea, and a huge ship revealed a very sci-fi appearance.
Four helicopters took off from the ship and soon arrived over the arsenal. Two of the helicopters were hoisted with small excavators on top and bottom, and a total of more than 100 armed men dressed in mecha came down from the four helicopters.
"The excavation team will work immediately, and the rest of the teams will be on alert nearby." An officer dressed in a mech, of unusual color and style, commanded loudly.
Two small excavators were immediately up and running, and the powerful drill bits quickly pulled the reinforced concrete out of the big holes on the surface. An hour later, someone cheered, "The entrance has been found!" ”
The debris was quickly cleared, and a corridor was revealed.
"Teams 1-10 will go in and search immediately, and Team 11 will be on the ground."
100 armed men coordinated with each other with a high degree of skill.
//////
On the -15th floor, Lin Zaishan and Fritsch found an entire storeroom of individual equipment. This warehouse is not anyone's kitchen or storage room, but a warehouse with a length of 100, 40, or 10 meters in height, full of weapons and equipment.
"We should tell John to send a brigade of men and horses over quickly." "With this equipment, Castle John no longer has to look at the Black Diamond Group's faces. ”
"Wait." Lin Zaishan noticed that an intrusion alarm sounded in the control room on this floor, and the screen of an unknown armed person appeared on the monitor. "Fritsch, have you called for reinforcements?"
"Absolutely not."
Dr. Sam cursed in his head, "Fool, it was the people on that ship who broke in violently. These people are really good at timing, and if they come a few hours late, I might have managed to release a clone of the squad so I can go head-to-head with them. ”
Lin Zaishan said to Fritsch: "The other party is advancing from top to bottom, we will definitely be discovered, it's time to get ready for battle." ”
"It's yours who are ready to fight, and I'm going to get out of the way." Fritch said and vanished on the spot.
"Invisibility? If you have so many abilities, why don't you play with them? ”
"I'm not stunned." Fritsch laughed, "Good luck." By the way, a friendly reminder that in a critical moment, you can throw the beauty in your arms over, and the other party may be distracted and let you escape with your life. ”
"Fridge, do you think you can throw the pot on my back with invisibility? I'd also like to remind you that the other person has a pair of glasses in their masks, and if I'm not mistaken, these glasses aren't meant to be cool, but the eyes of truth. ”
“Fuck!” It was Friedch's turn to curse, "In that case, we'd better pick up some awesome gear to fight." Fritch reappeared.
"The other side is advancing layer by layer, and we should have at least 20 minutes or so." Lin Zaishan said, "Let's go find that kind of large mecha like the Grim Reaper." ”
"It's okay, guarding a weapons warehouse, at least you don't have to worry about running out of ammunition and food."
"If the other party has a master in charge, he will definitely not give us a chance to stick to it. There are at least 7 or more ways to force us out of the warehouse. "When it comes to post-apocalyptic combat experience, Lin Zaishan is definitely rich.
The two searched separately, and soon, Lin Zaishan found a single mecha with a height of 4 meters, and a name, called "porter". This mecha has two more small mechanical arms and a cargo hopper behind it, which can not only attack with force, but also carry heavy loads.
After Lin Zaishan investigated, he was sure that the mecha was structurally intact and functioning properly, so he put the clone into the cargo hopper, piled up a lot of things he had collected next to her, and also loaded a lot of energy batteries and ammunition by the way.
At this time, Fritsch, who was dressed in a beautiful red mecha, jumped out, "I have to say that high-quality mecha can indeed enhance people's physical strength. With this awesome mecha, our chances of escaping will be greatly increased. ”
"What kind of vision do you have?" Lin Zaishan reminded solemnly: "This mecha is just good-looking but not practical, its front armor is too weak, and a slightly more powerful bullet can easily shoot through." Coupled with the bright colors, which especially attract firepower, it is simply a moving tomb. ”
"I just like it, what's the matter with you?"
Lin Zaishan also had to persuade the militants not to give them a chance. Three teams appeared on this level, and were immediately aware of their presence:
"Suspicious people are spotted and ready to fight. There is an order from above, no prisoners will be accepted in this battle, and no matter how much they will be killed! ”
"It's time for me to charge." Fritch yelled excitedly, jumped into the hallway, and rushed towards the militants with grace.
//////
30 weapons were fired at the same time, and a dense rain of bullets fell on Fritsch's mech, which was pierced and fell to the ground on the spot.
"I'll go!" Lin Zaishan, who was full of expectations for the wise man's best performance, was stunned by the scene in front of him for a few seconds, "Brother Fritsie, you died too quickly, didn't you?" Don't give the other party a chance at all. ”
Lin Zaishan had no choice but to brace himself and face the strong enemy independently. He immediately thought of throwing a hand-grenade at the opponent, but before he could make a move, the opponent threw more than a dozen different types of hand-grenades, and the angle was still very tricky.
Although the thick mecha was on his body, Lin Zaishan still didn't want to resist, so he shrewdly dodged.
He lured them into the spacious warehouse, then jumped in the middle of them and began to wrestle. The three team leaders on the other side are all very strong in their personal abilities, and Lin Zaishan still can't defeat them with all his strength in the current situation.
He didn't dare to dwell too much, so he looked for an opportunity to break through, quickly rushed into another upward stairwell, and then ran all the way to the ground.
//////
The armed personnel guarding the entrance on the ground had already heard the communication reminder from their teammates: "There is 1 person wearing a porter mecha who is trying to break through, pay attention to interception, be sure to kill!" ”
"Roger." The armed men guarding the entrance were all armed with their weapons and staring intently inside.
Suddenly, a hurried voice on the communicator alerted: "The suspicious person has fled in the direction of the cliff, where there is a secret exit. Everyone, hurry over and intercept it! ”
"Cliffs? There is the sea below, and he can't escape. Let's go! ”
The guards immediately rushed to the edge of the cliff, but saw no one.
At this time, at the entrance where they were originally guarding, Lin Zaishan jumped out and shook off the communication helmet that he had taken off from the heads of the unconscious armed men, and he had just deceived the group of people guarding here with a false message.
Lin did not rush to escape after coming up the mountain, but calmly probed around. He saw the supership not far away at sea for the first time. This is indeed a very large ship, although Lin Zaishan lacks expertise in ships, but he can also roughly estimate that the displacement of the ship is almost 200,000 tons, which is enough to be called a giant.
"This is obviously the legendary ship that can sail around the world after the end of the world. If I want to go home, I'm afraid the only way to get on this boat is first, the question is how can I get on board safely? Now I can only go as a dead man. ”
"Suspicious guy over there!" The commander of the opposing party spotted Lin Zaishan, who strode along the way he came in the direction of John's Castle.
Armed men got into the helicopter and tried to hunt it from the air.
"What the hell! The helicopter could not start. A team leader shouted.
The commander who ran back from the edge of the cliff said: "-2 floor personnel reported that there are small off-road vehicles, immediately call someone to get a few of them, and the 1st to 3rd team will go in pursuit in off-road vehicles!" ”
The 30 militants quickly boarded the off-road vehicle and chased after Lin in the direction where Lin Zaishan had gone. They chased for several kilometers in a row, and then split up at a three-way intersection.
After the pursuers moved away, Lin Zaishan emerged from the bushes beside the road and chose another direction to continue moving.
He traveled more than a dozen kilometers and turned onto the main road. In his expectation, he just played hide and seek, and he could completely get rid of the other party's pursuit, who knew that after only 3 minutes of walking, there was the roar of off-road vehicles behind him, and there was more than one, there were 8 off-road vehicles rushing towards him together, and they kept shooting.
"It seems that the other party must have a tracking master." Lin Zaishan had no choice but to speed up and run. The porter mecha he used was completely a pre-apocalyptic product, and the reserves and efficiency of the energy battery were not very high. He hurriedly slowed down, hid behind a large tree, and took out other energy batteries to replace.
By the time he was doing this, the other party had already rushed to him.
"Surround him!" A group leader ordered.
"It seems that a hard fight is inevitable." Lin Zaishan secretly sighed that he was really ill-fated.
Suddenly, a behemoth jumped out from behind the bushes and rushed into the opposing formation, knocking the off-road vehicle on its back and overturning, and arching the armed men in all directions.
This behemoth turned out to be a sixth-level wild boar, and the breath of life was so familiar, it was obviously "pursuing" the boar in heat that had crossed the forest in the mountains on the way to come.
"Hurry up and fire!" The armed men quickly stopped the panic and opened fire with all their might.
The sixth-level wild boar had rough skin and thick flesh, and was covered with blood marks, and turned its head into the jungle, and the armed men followed it.
Lin Zaishan took the opportunity to escape, and his mouth was still struggling: "Brother Pig, thank you." Good luck along the way. ”
