Passenger plane to Jiangcheng, first class.

The sky is clear and clear, through the porthole, you can see the flowing clouds and rolling up, the scenery is beautiful, and the beauty is breathtaking.

However, Zhao Qian had no intention of watching.

"Dayan, what's the situation?" he frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

"Rest assured, the situation is under control...... "The Great Operator said vaguely.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Qianyan couldn't help but look dazed when he heard this, and asked again and again, "Also, as far as I know, there are no mechanical beasts in the No. 3 laboratory, and there is a lack of parasites, how did the Lethe virus break out?"

"When you get there, you'll know. The Great Yan Mechanic didn't answer directly, and the reply was still a cloud mountain fog cover.

Zhao Qian frowned.

No wonder he was worried.

It must be known that the Lethe virus in the workshop is by no means an ordinary thing.

The Lethe virus comes from the "brain in a jar" and is a variant of the Dead Virus, and the Dead Virus is the culprit of the zombie beast!

The Dead Virus is a silicon-based virus that specifically parasitizes mechanical beasts, causing them to become unconscious, bloodthirsty zombie robots. This virus is very terrifying, but fortunately, it can only survive in the giant beast mound, and once it leaves, it will lose its vitality and die directly.

The reason for this is that the genetic sequence of this silicon-based virus is quite fragile and needs to be stabilized under a specific magnetic field, but if it is separated from the magnetic field, the gene will disintegrate.

For Zhao Qian, this deceased virus is simply first-class material.

It can only survive in a specific magnetic field, this virus is naturally easy to control, and with a little improvement, it may become a powerful biological weapon, and it can become a killer weapon to restrain the beast tide and even the mechanical race!

Therefore, Zhao Qian specially opened a laboratory to speed up the mutation of the deceased virus by artificial inducement, hoping to cultivate a specific "killer virus".

Unfortunately, countless attempts have failed.

Over the past few days, he has tried all kinds of methods, such as nitrous acid, hydroxylamine, high temperature, genetic recombination, etc., but they have not made much progress, which makes him a little discouraged.

There is a saying called "unintentional willow insertion", Zhao Qian did not expect that he had just left the handicraft workshop, and there was new progress in this research.

And what he didn't expect was that this progress was completely different from his previous speculations, but responded to his casual joke!

- T-Virus!

Regression.

"I'll see, what's going on?" Zhao Qian muttered, and went straight into the third laboratory.

Not to mention the biochemical suit and gas mask, he didn't even bother to change his shoes.

The reason is simple, as a silicon-based virus, Lethe virus cannot parasitize carbon-based organisms. In addition, the Lethe virus can only exist in Laboratory 3, which is densely packed with a special magnetic field, and once it is out of the range of the magnetic field, the gene will immediately disintegrate.

"Huh?"

Zhao Qian paused, staring straight ahead, stunned.

In the room, a wrist-length broken beast claw lay on the ground, its flesh and blood were shriveled and withered, but the sharp claws formed an arc-shaped barb, like a curved crescent, and the chill was bitter.

"So, there is a mechanical beast breaking into the third laboratory?" Zhao Qian was stunned, and then whispered suspiciously, "Looking at the claw shape, it is completely different from ordinary mechanical beasts, but it is a bit like a dragon's claw...... Also, how does this beast's claw look like it's dry?"

"You guessed it wrong, it's not a beast's claw. The Great Yan Mechanic said, "Yes...... Hand. ”

"It's not a claw, it's a hand?" Zhao Qian thought of something, looked up in one direction, and his face changed greatly, "The hand that kills the gods?"

I saw that in the corner of the room, the snow-white god-killing god was half-squatting and half-sitting, and his left hand was nowhere to be found, leaving only a charred black section.

"Dayan, what's going on?" Zhao Qian's eyebrows were raised, and he was already furious.

He understands why Da Yan has been vague, and his feelings are evading responsibility?

"This ......" the big man hesitated for a moment, and then said, "There is not enough culture medium in the laboratory, so I remotely controlled the robot to drive the god-killing transport, but unexpectedly this happened." Don't worry, I sensed that something was wrong, and immediately cut off the infected left hand of the godkiller and canceled the magnetic field around it, and it will be fine. ”

"So, I still have to thank you?" Zhao Qianpi smiled and said with a smile.

"Who would have thought that the Lethe virus could actually parasitize the clay man mecha?" said in an innocent tone, "The Dead Virus doesn't have this ability......"

Zhao Qian nodded, indeed, in the giant beast barren mound, no clay man mecha was infected.

He understood the cause and effect, only to feel that his head was full of bags, rubbed his hair and said: "However, the left hand of the god-killing is gone, so it's not a big deal?"

"Don't worry," said in a calm tone, "The regeneration ability of the clay man mecha is extremely strong, and it can grow back in a few months with just one hand." Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you can't recover naturally, for you, making a manipulator is not a matter of minutes?"

Zhao Qian was helpless, and he didn't bother to argue with Dayan anymore, so he simply squatted down, half-squinted his eyes, and looked up and down at this form of the manipulator that had turned the world upside down.

"The effect of this Lethe Virus Type 1," he guessed, rubbing his chin, "is it to turn the clay man mecha into a dried corpse?"

Airplanes!

The big manipulator is bright, the streamer floats, sweeping the manipulator again and again, reading the data.

Zhao Qian was not surprised and waited patiently on the side.

"Huh, it seems to be ......" The Great Yan Robot seemed to notice something, and suddenly said, "Zhao Qian, put this robot into the biological warehouse." ”

"Biowarehouse?" Zhao Qian was stunned when he heard this, "You mean, 'it' is still alive?"

......

In the jar-like biological warehouse, the manipulator is faintly suspended, and the surrounding nutrient solution is like boiling, and countless bubbles are churning upward, as if giant claws are breathing.

Looking through the transparent glass of the bulkhead, Zhao Qian couldn't hide his shock, and his expression changed.

"What is this?" he muttered for a long time.

In the biological warehouse, the originally dry giant claws have more than doubled, the claws have become sharper and sharper, and teardrop-shaped scale armor has grown on the surface, and there are even thick knotted blood vessels surging under the skin, rolling endlessly like evil dragons.

The flesh and blood of the giant claw squirmed, and a trace of tyrannical killing machine overflowed, it no longer had the appearance of a mecha palm, it was more like the claws of a war beast, which could break hearts and bones!

"The current form of this mechanical hand is like a weapon specially created for killing!" Zhao Qian pondered for a while, and said suspiciously, "The effect of the Lethe virus is to transform the basic form of the mecha and create a war troll?"

He was secretly terrified.

"Hmph! It's much more than that!" Da Yan suddenly spoke, and a projection floated, "Zhao Qian, look at this!"

Zhao Qian followed the sound and saw that in the dark gray projection, countless silicon-based cells were swimming back and forth, running again and again, like an endless river.

"Is this ......," he realized, pointing to the giant claw, "its cellular activity?"

"Yes. The Great Yan Mechanic replied, and said, "Do you know? For silicon-based lifeforms such as clay figures, mechas, and mechanical beasts, there is actually another special name,—— inert life. ”

"Inert life?" Zhao Qian seemed to think.

"Hmm. "Silicon-based life has a more stable structure, stunted metabolism, slow growth and reproduction, and an extremely long lifespan, so it is also called an inert life." ”

It paused, and then said in a deep voice: "But this infected manipulator has not only changed its form drastically, but even the speed of metabolism has increased by more than three times!"

"Three-fold?" Zhao Qian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he asked again, "If the entire mecha is infected, what will be the effect?"

"First, the form changes, turning into a killing machine. "Second, the speed of metabolism has skyrocketed, and its strength, speed, and recovery ability will all skyrocket, and it will gain terrifying abilities that transcend the ranks, or even leap several levels!"

"Even the next few steps?" Zhao Qian's heart was beating for a while, but he didn't lose his mind, and continued to ask, "What about the side effects?"

He naturally knows that this kind of power will naturally not come without a price.

"First, the foundation of the mech will be damaged, and the mecha will lose its potential for advancement, and second, I guess that the life of the mecha will be drastically reduced, leaving about thirty years. "In addition, as you can see, this form consumes a lot of nutrients and requires a lot of nutrient solution. ”

"Nutrient solution is not a problem, a small device can meet the conditions......"

With a wave of his palm, Zhao Qian's projection of the cube lit up, and he immediately wandered away, leaving a metal round jar and more than a dozen silver pipes in the projection, turning into mecha equipment similar to a diving device.

"Even, we can adjust the performance of each part of the entire mecha by adjusting the transmission and distribution of the nutrient solution, forming an effect similar to 'variable speed gear'. He kept his hands on it, and explained slowly.

"Gear shifting?Zhao Qian, you're really a fucking genius!"

"However, where can I find the clay figure mecha?" Zhao Qian smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders, "Moreover, the cost of losing the foundation and lifespan is too great! ”

"Are you an idiot?" said the Great Mechanic suddenly, "Just look for the clay figure mecha that has already broken its foundation and is on the verge of death?"

"It's easy to say!" Zhao Qian snorted, and asked rhetorically, "You say, where to find it?"

"- Second-hand mobile armor auction house!"

The answer of the Great Yan Mechanic made Zhao Qian's eyes light up.

"Why didn't I think of that?" he patted the back of his head and said with a smile, "Dayan, you finally came up with a good idea!"

"Finally?" said in a disgruntled tone, "When did I have a bad idea?" and besides, this thing you designed is too rudimentary, and there are still many things that need to be optimized. ”

"Yes. Zhao Qian nodded, spread his hands and said, "I was just a casual drawing just now......

One person was talking with one hand, and the silver-white lines swept across the projection, and the originally simple device gradually became clear and complex, and even revealed a bit of flamboyant and domineering atmosphere, full of oppression.

Zhao Qian crossed his arms and tilted his head: "This project is called the Nirvana Project!"

"Hurry up, go to the auction house!" "Da Yan's hand is still anxious, "I've already booked tickets online, let's go immediately!"
