Chapter 56: The Final Experiment
Jaime stood outside the glass, Studio Karina busy. "I'll see you in a while......" he muttered to himself, but his eyes never left Jiang Ke.
Outside of Karina's studio, several researchers are inspecting the device and making final adjustments. Here, each of them has a container of their own. Because of the lack of material, they are ready to sacrifice themselves at any time.
One of them turned around, nodded at James, and motioned, "Dr. James, we're ready to go." β
Jaime took a deep breath and walked over to the console.
Although he has not spoken a word to his sister in the past few days. But the bonds and tacit understanding that grew up together since childhood, just through the data, Jaime can clearly know what his sister needs. And today, Jaime will help Karina as an assistant in the final step of this project.
He looked around the venue where he was, and at this moment, Dick was giving a passionate speech, and he proclaimed that this was the last holy war of mankind. He was surrounded by a handful of researchers and guards, their eyes full of faith. For them, this is not only the salvation of humanity, but also their final salvation.
On the other side of the field, there were many containers lined up with strangers with whom James had never met. At this moment, they are like dolls, floating in the liquid, with their heads bowed, waiting for their fate. Nadia was in the largest container in the middle, and Jaime didn't like or dislike Nadia, but when Nadia was subdued, her words still stung him.
In the end, James's gaze stayed on Jiang Ke's body. Although they didn't get along for a long time, the two were born and died together, and he had already regarded Jiang Ke as a family member. It's just Jiang Ke's state and behavior just now, he really doesn't understand why Jiang Ke did that, he hasn't even said hello to him yet. Jaime really wanted to have a good chat with Jiang Ke.
"Jaime!" Dick's speech was over, and he walked up to Jaime and nodded at him, "Let's get started." He just had a smug smile on his face, but there was more arrogance and no one in his eyes.
Jaime took a deep breath, put his hand on the instrument, and began to say to himself, "I'm a scholar now, I'm a scholar now...... According to the theoretical value, everyone will lose 7% of their body tissue, which is not enough to be fatal, it's okay, I'll explain it to Ke in a while! β
Jaime was still confused by Jiang Ke's strange appearance just now, and all he saw was the shadow of Jiang Ke's anger, and he couldn't concentrate.
Dick whispered beside him, "James! β
Jaime snapped, and the sound of Karina counting down came from the speakers. 3ββ2ββ1βββ
At the end of the countdown, Jaime pushed up the handle according to the steps he had prepared for many days, and turned on the device in cooperation.
"Infusion of ingestion solution." Karina's voice came again.
Jaime followed the instructions strictly. In an instant, the liquid in the container filled the crowd from blue to green. The originally peaceful value has also begun to rise wildly at this moment. Jaime monitors multiple indices at the same time, and these intricacies usually require about four people to work together. But these were minor problems for James.
What he has to do is that when there is a deviation in the value, he needs to correct it in time.
"Reaching the expected stable value." Karina said.
Jaime wiped his sweat and quickly adjusted the device.
"Ready to fuse, Dick ready."
The corners of Dick's mouth went up, and finally, at this moment of his dream, he took off all the clothes on his body. He picked up a needle and injected it into his vein, "This is how we all came into this world, and we will leave like this." β
As soon as he finished speaking, his body twisted violently, as if there was a monster inside him that wanted to break through his body.
Dick laughed wildly, "I'm going to embrace the new life in this way!" With that, Dick walked into the container with his head held high.
"Inject the SD extract."
Dick's container was filled with a turquoise liquid similar to patina, but it was visible to be shining silver when the light focused it. His face was quickly submerged in the liquid.
Jaime looked at Dick's physical signs, and the dashboard showed that every one of his values at the moment was well out of the safe range. But this is the case with Karina's theory, which is not broken, and if it is to be created, it must be destroyed first.
Just as Dick's body reached a value that could almost be described as crazy, the otherwise calm liquid inside the container began to move. Not chaotic fluctuations, but as if they were also alive, they began to flow rapidly in one direction.
"Fusion begins!" Carina gave the order, and Jaime pulled down the valves of the other containers one by one, and a large amount of blue liquid poured down from the top of Dick's head.
When the blue liquid touches the silver-green liquid, the silver-green liquid quickly devours the blue liquid as if it is eating. The liquid flows more rapidly, like a deep vortex.
Jaime had been wondering why he needed such a large container, and now he realized that the amount of liquid poured was much larger than he had estimated, but he wondered where the liquid came from.
Jaime checked the values on the monitoring table, and everything was normal, not even fluctuating. He muttered to himself, "Strange, does this mean that none of these containers are being used?" But in front of him, the blue liquid was still pouring into Dick's container.
He double-checked the connections of the instruments and turned away from the console.
Jaime walked quickly from container to container, checking the amount of liquid in each container, but nothing was out of the ordinary. And when he turned to look at Dick's container again, the blue liquid was still flowing into it.
This lasted for about 3 or 4 minutes, until the containers in front of Jaime began to be used, the liquid was pumped out, and new ones were added.
When Jaime saw this, he was shocked. He hurried back to the console, but to his surprise, the console seemed to be locked, and did not react to his control, just continuing to carry out the command.
On the dashboard, red alerts began to appear on the indicators of multiple living beings, and there were bursts of buzzing sound one after another, making people uneasy. Jaime stared at the numbersβmore than 10% of the body tissue had been ingested at the moment, and it was already life-threatening.
