Volume 3 The War of the Insects Chapter 200 The Lone Hero (5)
The old man was still trembling, but he chose to answer Morning Star. His voice, though also trembling, was an extremely oppressive tremor.
"Wait a minute, it'll be right away!"
Under the gaze of the morning star, the old man's body finally changed, the muscles on his back gradually bulged, and then he was pierced by the bone spurs that broke out of his body, his height increased, his limbs became stronger, and the hair on the top of his head, which had already turned white, quickly fell off, turning into thick strips of flesh like tentacles. Turning around, the old man's skin was no longer wrinkled, because it had fallen off one after another, leaking bright red muscle structure. Strong pectoral muscles, angular abdominal muscles, thick arms and thighs, everywhere show the strength of this mutated body.
The annihilation in Morningstar's right palm had taken shape, and at this moment it was as quiet as an ordinary leather ball, slowly turning under the caress of Morningstar's left hand.
"It's done! That's it! It worked! With the old man's shout, he stood up completely, and the old body had completely disappeared, replaced by the muscular giant in front of him.
"How? Have you ever seen such a great invention, reversing fate and rejuvenating the body! My research is the right direction for human evolution! The old man seemed to be very pleased with the changes in his body, and shouted excitedly at the morning star.
Although Morningstar wanted to satisfy the last bit of vanity of the elderly scientist before he died, he always felt that something was wrong, and after frowning and thinking for a long time, Morningstar gently tapped his head left and right, because he did find something wrong. The old man's key organs, which were not very strong in the first place, but kept shaking because of his naked body, are gone!
"Old man! Your Tintin is gone! Kindly, Morningstar reminded.
"Ignorant child, what do you know, my great invention will free mankind from the backward way of reproduction, which is the sign of the new humanity! A great step forward! The old man didn't care about the disappearance of his key parts, but excitedly said that this was a sign of a new humanity.
"But your Tintin is still gone!"
Morningstar didn't believe that this was a sign of a new humanity, and was more willing to trust the choices of the Prisenchus than the results of such crazy experiments that had not yet been verified.
"In the end, you still haven't become what I want to see, old man, a man has no Tintin, I think you don't have the face to live in this world, I'll give you a ride." Morningstar was disappointed, after seeing Cynthia, he once thought that it was the research results of this director that led to the birth of Azazler, but looking at the transformation of this director, it was obvious that Morningstar guessed wrong. Since you didn't see the results you expected, it's time to end the farce here and continue your mission.
The transformed old man obviously didn't realize the great power of annihilation in Morningstar's hand, but walked up to Cynthia's side, raised his hand around her shoulders and said to Morningstar, "You're still too young, you think you can ......"
"Shadow Walk!"
Morning Star didn't let the old man finish his words, and the phantom flashed in front of two creatures who were not human or ghostly.
"Annihilation!"
It was very quiet, just like the soft tone of the morning star when he shouted "annihilation", when the morning star pressed the black energy ball in his hand on Cynthia's body, there was no loud noise, no flash, no brilliant explosion, Cynthia's body was as if it had been torn by a black hole, twisted, deformed, and finally disappeared completely. And the old man's arm on Cynthia's arm also disappeared with this strange scene. Almost in the blink of an eye, the powerful black shockwave brought by annihilation directly smashed through the walls of the room, shattering the ground, and a huge cave that was as smooth as a mirror and stretched for a hundred meters appeared almost out of thin air.
"Nope! My hand! Cynthia! ”
The old man's wail rang out, but it was too late, his beloved Cynthia died, and his self-proclaimed body was struck by the morning star and an arm was taken away, and the furious force of annihilation almost drained all the blood in his body. The old man fell to the ground, and the muscles that had been high and bulging quickly atrophied.
Morning Star walked in front of the old man, squatted down and reached out to hold the old man's wrist, looked at his gradually obscene body, and said lightly: "Your research direction is not wrong, it's a pity that you are in a hurry, and you are missing some key things." ”
"No, my theory is very mature, ahem!" The old man didn't believe Morning Star's words, he wanted convenience, but he couldn't suppress the blood that kept spitting out of his mouth.
Morning Star sighed lightly, his momentum was released, and his physical and spiritual energy was mobilized, and the old man felt this key force through the position of contact with the old man.
"I see! I get it! ”
……
The old man died, to be honest, Morning Star still likes an old man very much, calm, calm and enthusiastic, a little indecent makes this old man full of humor, if it weren't for being in the opposite camp, Morning Star thinks that he and the old man are likely to become friends. But now, there is no such possibility. After the old man was injected with "that", his body did get a new life, especially the sentence "reversal of fate", which still made Morning Star quite emotional. Since the age of the home planet, there have been countless people who have struggled to fight against fate, and this fate is the natural law of birth, old age, sickness and death. Whether it's the twilight of the hero or the growing old, these will make people feel sad, but there is nothing they can do. For thousands of years, although human beings have increased the average life expectancy by several decades through various methods, they still cannot cross the threshold of life and death.
Reaching out and closing the old man's eyes, Morning Star turned his head to look at the young man who was already frightened and bloodless, and asked in a cold tone, "How do you want to die?" ”
The man was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly knelt down at Morning Star's feet and begged, "Let me go!" Leave me alone! You can do whatever you want me to do! Please spare me! ”
"What can you do? Envoy? Morning Star's face was slightly cold, and his voice was a little colder.
Morning Star's words stopped the young man, and for a moment he really couldn't think of what he could do for Morning Star. But after all, he is still an envoy, not the kind of fool who will think about things when he encounters something, forcing himself to calm down, and the young man replied after thinking for a while: "I, I can provide you with all the information in this base." yes, all the information, you, oh no, you certainly didn't come here to kill us, did you? If you're just going to kill us, you can attack with a large army, and since you're on your own, there's got to be something you need, something you can't destroy, right? ”
The young man's analysis made a lot of sense, and Morning Star pursed his lips after hearing this, and his eyes motioned for the man to get dressed, because his naked body was making Morning Star look very awkward. The man thanked Dade for his ship's shirt and trousers, and then said, "According to the information in the Heavenly Mandate Sect, you definitely don't want those dead plague viruses, you, you are the guardian, not the destroyer, so the dead plague virus is meaningless to you!" ”
Morningstar nodded, motioning for the other party to continue his analysis.
Seeing Morning Star's expression, the young man knew that his life was saved for the time being, but thinking about Morning Star's terrifying methods before, he still didn't have the courage to escape. Grabbing his head and pacing in place, after a long time, the young man seemed to think of something, and said excitedly: "You, you must be the research data of the dead epidemic!" Yes, the Empire has taken many infected people from Lief-2, so you must research the data to develop a vaccine! ”
"Yes, he really deserves to be an envoy, he is quite smart, and his analysis is completely correct. What I want, can you provide it? Morning Star's face began to slowly become calmer, no longer hideous.
The young man grabbed the straw that saved his life, and hurriedly changed to a flattering smile and said, "Yes, I can take you to find those materials, I have permission." However, if I can provide you with some additional information that you need, can you let me go? ”
"Huh?" Morning Star frowned and looked at the young man and asked, "Other information?" What information? ”
The young man seemed to have confidence, straightened up and said, "It must be what you need, it depends on whether you can agree to let me go!" ”
Hearing this, Morning Star laughed and said, "I thought you were quite smart just now, why did you start to be stupid again this time?" I want to kill you, do you think any of these miscellaneous fish under your command can stop me? If I'm not mistaken, that Cynthia should be the highest combat power in your base, right? ”
The young man took two steps back when he heard Morning Star's words, his face was full of fear again, he stared at Morning Star and asked, "Are you still going to kill me?" ”
Morning Star's figure flashed and appeared beside the young man, and as soon as he raised his hand, the young man roared and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands. Morning Star smiled helplessly, pulled the other party's back collar and picked it up and said, "Get up and work!" I can kill you without killing you, or I can destroy you, but whether you can run away or not depends on your creation. ”
"This, this!" Morningstar's words did not make the young man feel the slightest relaxation, but even more anxious.
Morningstar raised his leg and kicked the young man's ass and threatened, "If you are not satisfied with my arrangement, then I can also kill you now, and then go find the information myself, how do you feel?" ”
"Don't, I'll take you, I'll take you!" Even if he was anxious, the young man knew how to choose at this time, shook his head like a rattle, and walked in front of the morning star bent over to lead the way.
When Morningstar followed the young man out of the room, he understood why there was so much movement in the room, and not a single security officer showed up. On both sides of the 100-meter-long corridor, there are only a few rooms, all surrounded by special glass that is well insulated. Morningstar walked in the hallway, seeing the people in the room on both sides talking, but he couldn't make any sound, even if there was an occasional slight explosion, he could only see a bright light, not the sound of an explosion.
"This base has cost a lot of funds from the Heavenly Mandate Sect, and it looks more advanced than mine." Morningstar strolled down the hallway, turning his head back and forth at the scene in the laboratories on both sides, and suddenly asked.
The young man took a look, but he didn't dare to stop, and replied stupidly: "I joined relatively late, and I don't know the specific cost, but people say that this place has been built since more than ten years ago, just for this special dead epidemic virus." ”
"More than a decade ago? You mean, the Mandate of Heaven Sect has been around for more than a decade? Morning Star asked with some surprise as he looked at the young man's side face.
The young man was even more surprised, this man who was almost on the Heavenly Mandate Sect's must-kill list actually didn't know anything about the Heavenly Mandate Sect? After thinking for a moment, the young man replied in order to curry favor with Morning Star, "Your message may be a little wrong, the Heavenly Mandate Sect has existed much longer than more than ten years. Although I am an envoy, I am not a core member of the sect after all, so I don't know much. However, I can tell you responsibly that the Heavenly Mandate Sect has existed for at least a hundred years! ”
As soon as Morningstar asked the question, he realized that his performance might leak a lot of information, and although it was too late to change his words, the necessary disguise could still be done. But just as Morning Star was thinking about how to cross this topic, the young man actually took the initiative to tell the history of the Heavenly Mandate Sect.
"When I was promoted to special envoy, I once met the core members of the Heavenly Mandate Sect, and from their conversations, I heard many stories about the century-old operation of the Heavenly Mandate Sect, which is quite inspiring."
The young man was a little talkative, and he couldn't seem to stop at the beginning. Although Morningstar wanted to have a long talk with him, but time didn't allow it at all, and now his body was in danger, so he was in the mood to chat with this guy, so Morningstar interrupted: "Inspirational? It's a shame that you came up with this word, isn't it good to be a good human being? Gotta be in the company of those monsters. Besides, there is no need for that Destiny sect to have more inspirational stories among human beings? ”
The young man sensed Morningstar's displeasure and hurriedly accepted Morningstar's criticism.
Morningstar pursed his lips, thinking to himself that this guy was really capable of bending and stretching, and the identity of his envoy was also patted nine times out of ten.
"The base can't be full of scientific research, right, what about your security forces?" Until he walked out of the hallway, Morningstar didn't encounter a single security officer, and asked in confusion.
The young man mustered up the courage to turn his head and glance at Morning Star, desperately trying to find fear on Morning Star's face, but unfortunately Morning Star's performance disappointed him. At this moment, the morning star is like a visitor walking in a zoo, standing in front of a sign that says Lamb, looking for the lambs in the field, except for curiosity, there is no slightest fear.
"Isn't that about to be evacuated? There are still a lot of dormant bugs underneath the base, and security personnel have been redeployed to that side. Although the young man's words were not fully explained, Morning Star still understood the meaning, and was deployed to the side of the dormant insects, which should be to assist those crazy scientists to extract the special substances on the insects, and I don't know how many living insects there are, if possible, Morning Star really wants to help these insects. But the most important thing at the moment is to obtain research materials on the dead epidemic, and other ideas will have to wait until this task is completed.
After walking around the young man for nearly ten minutes, the two finally came to the office of the director that the young man said he was talking about, which was the office of the old man who was killed by Morning Star. Here are all the research materials of this base from its construction to the present. From the conversation with the young man, Morningstar knew that this base was not only researching the dead plague virus, but also responsible for a part of the research on human evolution. The human evolution project in the Heavenly Mandate Sect is actually the dead soldiers that Morning Star saw before. It's a pity that the technology of the Heavenly Mandate Sect is too immature, and the success rate of the transformation of the dead is very low, and even if the transformed humans survive, they will also encounter the problem of losing their emotions. And the old man before, that is, the supreme person in charge of this base, was taken a different path by the guy who became the director, and made a genetic potion that Cynthia called "that", which completely solved the problem of transforming human emotions and lost emotions, although there was no Ding Ding, but this was more or less a kind of progress.
Due to the imminent evacuation, the research materials of the Heavenly Mandate Sect had already been transferred to a portable storage by the director, which also saved Morning Star a lot of trouble. But the dense folders on the dozen or so file shelves in the room made Morning Star interested. Even the young man didn't know what the contents of these folders were, except that the director regarded them as treasures and would not be allowed to touch them. Unable to read and distinguish them in detail, seeing the boxes stacked on the wall of the room, Morningstar guessed that the director had prepared them to carry the documents.
Opening the box and packing the folders into several boxes according to the classification on the shelves, Morning Star breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at the young man, only to find that the other party was taking out a thick stack of papers from a safe hidden in the wall, and walked up to Morning Star as if offering a treasure and said: "This is the research data on the death plague vaccine, in order to prevent the people in the base from being infected with the death plague virus, those scientists have also produced many vaccines while studying the death plague. Although the vaccines were later destroyed, the director kept the information. This should save your team a lot of detours. ”
Morningstar results briefly flipped through the information, and there were all kinds of formulas in my eyes, and I couldn't understand it at all. Nodding, Morning Star threw the stack of materials into the box, looked at the young man with a wicked smile and said, "Given that you took the initiative to confess the facts of the crime and provided so much useful information to the righteous me, your life should be in your hands, at least I am not going to kill you!" Hearing Morning Star's words, the young man almost jumped up in excitement, but how could Morning Star make him so excited, and continued: "Come on, help me find a way to get out of here, and after sending me out, you can run for your life." ”
Escape? Although the young man didn't want to hear this, what Morningstar said was indeed the truth. Morningstar has already got what he wants, as long as Morningstar leaves this base, the attack of the Empire will follow, not an escape or something?
