"At that time, Vermand had killed many Germans in the entire Soviet Union..."V was still saying, and he didn't seem to want to take off his mask and drink tea to moisten his throat, "Especially in the last year, after he acted alone, the rate of increase in human life on his hands became even more terrifying, and even his name has become thunderous throughout Europe, of course, not his real name... They called him 'The Red Ghost', TheREDGHOST, though they knew that Vicand was no longer with them, only the Soviets who were also fighting. ”

"After Vimande's arrest, there seems to have been some disagreement among the Nazi upper echelons about the treatment of him... And the point is that Vicand was no longer a Bolshevik. In the sense of struggling for hemorrhoids, it seems that they have just caught a simple murderer. ”

Xiao Yun interjected: "That is, this guy is not a human being who has been mixed inside and out, right?" ”

V nodded, acknowledging this not-so-nice statement, "So the plan to publicly execute the 'Red Ghost' to deter all Soviets was thrown into the furnace by Goebbels, Germany's propaganda minister." But the Germans, who had captured Vimande, were clearly very reluctant to the words 'secret execution', so they had another idea..."

"This powerful Viking warrior, his physical fitness has been honed over the years of fighting to surpass that of most humans, and Nazi Germany at that time just wanted to create a more powerful and new weapon... So the scientific department and the Gestapo hit it off, and only nominally executed Vermande. ”

"Vermand really became a ghost that didn't exist, and the first part of my story ended here..."

"So..."Xue Qiong seemed to have guessed something in the middle, and he asked directly: "The first part ended in 1948, what about the second part?" From which year? ”

V glanced at Xue Qiong deeply. This guy was in a kind of teasing his girlfriend from the beginning, as if he was not listening, but compared to the bald head who listened carefully from beginning to end, but showed a puzzled expression when Xue Qiong asked this question, he actually heard his own off-string sound first...

Thinking like this, V confirmed Xue Qiong's guess, "The second part didn't start until 2009, that is, the 58th year of the imperial calendar... And this part is much easier and more boring than the first part. ”

One night in the 58th year of the Imperial calendar, in the former British territory, then the German territory, and then a grassland on the British island belonging to the empire, one had basically turned black, most of the skin peeled off, and even in some places directly exposed the palm of the white bones, suddenly dug up the ground from below, and in this way stretched directly into the sky on the grass.

The palm of the hand touched the side of the hole, and as if it felt the touch of grass, it waved twice in the air excitedly. Next, the forearm and big arm came out from the back of the palm, but after the whole dirty, rotten arm came out, the back part seemed to be stuck... After struggling for a few moments, he raised his middle finger with his palm to the sky, then retracted his arm back into the ground, and then heard the sound of digging from underground.

It wasn't until an hour later that a ragged, skinny man with barely a piece of good meat on his body, like a zombie who couldn't eat enough, finally dug himself out from under the ground.

The first thing the man did after appearing on the ground was to use his already leaky lungs to frantically breathe in the fresh air of the night. And the second thing is to roll on the grass like a fool...

After rolling over, he seemed to finally realize that it looked silly, even though no one saw him, and he went on to do something even more silly... He began to pull weeds and stuff them into his mouth, even the dirt brought up by the roots of the grass, and the occasional few high-protein critters in the soil.

For more than a year after his arrest, from 1948 to 1949, he was placed in a state of "absolutely impossible" activity by the German army. Specifically, he was fixed on an operating table, his hands and feet were tied firmly, his head was trapped by an iron hoop, and his mouth was stuffed forever...

Every muscle in his body, except for his eyelids, was restricted. Even the basic eating, drinking, and lazing were all handed over to nasogastric tubes, urinary catheters, and fecal bags.

Every day, Vimande was injected with all sorts of strange drugs, many of which seemed to be sedatives, so that the total amount of time he was awake each day was only about twenty minutes at most, and most of them were choking on nasal feeding.

Occasionally, Vimande would wake up to find that a part of his body had been cut open, and the Nazi scientists, dressed in white coats and gas masks, were still standing at a table a few meters away, looking at a liver, a kidney, or something in the tray in front of him... Then those people would find out that Vimand was awake, and Vimande would be given a large dose of sedative. And when he woke up again, he would find that the horrible incision on his body was gone, which made him wonder if the last time he woke up was actually just a dream.

In this kind of hellish day when he couldn't even kill himself, Vimand actually survived... Whoever looks at it, it's a miracle of miracles. And when Vimand woke up for the last time, he vaguely heard the people talking about things like "the transformation is complete", "the final stage", "brainwashing", "the glory of Germany", and then the familiar sedative.

But this time is different from before, Vimand has never really woken up again.

Nazi scientists, using drugs, machines, and all sorts of means, tried to brainwash Vimand, but the results seemed to be far from ideal...

Vermand seemed to have forgotten who he was, and when he asked him his name, he could only remember the first sound.

Vermand also forgot everything he was born in, grew up in, and fought in... But the knowledge, and the ideas, are still there.

But for the Nazis, the most important part, the "obedience" they needed the most, was never in Vimand's mind after dozens of brainwashings.

And when the Nazi scientists were ready to take a desperate gamble and give up brainwashing, but directly turn Vimande into a complete idiot, using machine remote control... The Kuomintang entered this research institute.

Due to the fact that Vimande showed too much strength and too much uncontrollability during several tests, the Nazis simply used the newly developed culture tank technology and soaked him in a large tank of nutrient solution mixed with anesthetic... And several layers of steel plates were added to the outside. After the Nationalist Army killed everyone in this underground base, they directly blew up the place, and the cultivation tank with steel plates in Vimande seemed to be regarded by the Kuomintang as some kind of high-pressure gas tank or something, so it was directly ignored, and because the steel plate was thick enough, the cultivation tank was not destroyed in the explosion.

"When I woke up in the glass jar where the culture was all gone, but the steel plates outside had been corroded by the seeping groundwater, I had forgotten everything." V's masked face still doesn't change in any way, "But I remember two things. Aside from the fact that my name should start with V, there's one more thing..."

"Let's not talk about it, we all understand..."

Xue Qiong stopped V from saying the point, but V seemed to be relieved and felt relieved, because he knew that Xue Qiong understood what he meant.

He finally sat down on the sofa again and said to Xue Qiong and the others, "You should know the next story. I went incognito, put on a mask, called myself V, and then met Ditrick and found a way to find out the story of Vimand... Although everyone in the story back then, except for Vimande, is dead. In particular, the village, during the Nazi occupation of the Soviet Union, had been slaughtered by the SS directly. ”

"He also analyzed my blood, muscles, and even bones before undergoing Dietrick's mechanical modifications, and concluded that... What the Nazis injected me with at that time, the composition is very complicated. Not just dozens of viruses, but even things like bacteria, fungi, and parasite eggs. Until now, even Ditrick didn't know what the Nazis were up to, and how they knew that all these things would work together without killing me... But in the end, I gained superhuman speed, strength, and reflexes, immortality, and the ability to digest any organic matter and use it to repair myself.

"Oooh!" Xiao Yun reacted, but it was the bald head who was a doctor who said first: "So after you return to the ground, the first thing you do is pull weeds and eat?" “

"That's right. But Ditrick said that my physical condition was extremely unstable and could destroy itself at any moment... So in the past few decades, I have successively replaced most of the organs in my body with machinery. I've been reinvented again, but my strength has actually gotten a little weaker..."

"Hey, hey, hey, hey..."

Xue Qiong suddenly laughed meaninglessly, he looked at the Mao-Ze-Dong mask on V's face, and asked bluntly: "Then V, what is the purpose of these stories?" As far as I know, you're not the kind of person to be sentimental, and it's unlikely that you've been holding back for too long, just trying to find someone to talk to. ”

V glanced at Xue Qiong again. It's been a long time, he's thinking, he's choosing.

In V's eyes, Xue Qiong is very similar to herself in many places. And the things that this person shows are more like an innate thought driving him than what he says about his "mission"...

"Tomorrow... No, this afternoon. V looked at the wall clock on the wall, the time on it was long past midnight, "I have a wonderful feeling that in this afternoon's battle, I will die." ”
