Chapter 180: The Hidden Assassin
Wei Yi was so shocked by the information displayed on the opaque vessel that he was speechless for a long time. His mind was in a trance. This is too unusual for him. No matter how you look at it, Wei Yi feels that it is impossible for him to be parasitized.
"What's going on?" Wei Yi asked suspiciously.
Li Xiaohui shook her head and said, "I don't know how you were infected. But you do become a host for amoebae. The kind of symptoms you had at the beginning also speak volumes about this problem. Thankfully, it shouldn't be a big problem now. I'll give you a full check-up later. β
Wei Yi nodded. This situation is too weird for him. He had no idea when he became infected. If it can't be solved as soon as possible, it will be too dangerous for him. Wei Yi didn't want to continue the situation again.
That time, his consciousness was controlled, and if Li Mingyu hadn't made a timely move, he would have almost caused a catastrophe. But what about next time? It is impossible for Lee Mingwoo to be by his side at all times, and he cannot be so lucky every time. Therefore, this problem must be solved as soon as possible.
"Where did this strange bug come from?" Wei Yi thought for a moment and asked puzzled.
"Pool of blood." Li Xiaohui pointed to the map on the wall of the laboratory and continued to Wei Yi, "I carefully inspected the entire nest. A few hundred meters underground, there are more than a dozen pools of blood. It's full of these bugs. The density per square meter distribution is simply intimidating. β
As she spoke, she beckoned Wei Yi to slowly walk out of the laboratory. She now has to take Wei Yi for a comprehensive health check-up as soon as possible. After a period of observation just now, Li Xiaohui felt that Wei Mi's situation was not very serious. But this amoeba, once it enters the human body, it is extremely difficult to detect. Now only the equipment equipped here can be checked.
Li Xiaohui took Wei Yi all the way to the depths of the ground. As they went deeper and deeper into the ground, Wei Yu found that there were more and more guards patrolling and guarding around them. Not only that, but when they came to another research room deep underground, Wei Yi saw that the latest combat robots equipped by the army were guarding the door of the research room.
That's a combat robot that relies entirely on intelligent AI to automatically enforce security protocols. They don't require any actions or instructions, just a security protocol to be able to perform their tasks with ease. They are highly equipped and proficient in a variety of weapons and combat techniques, making them extremely fearsome fighters.
It is said that just one such combat robot can completely destroy a small country in a matter of days. Such a weapon of war, Wei Yi only heard Li Mingyu and others inadvertently mention it. Unexpectedly, he actually met here today.
"What's in this? Why is the level of security so high? Wei Yi looked at the robot not far away and asked Li Xiaohui.
"Inside is a whole set of equipment to detect amoebae. It was shipped just a few days ago. That's not the problem, though. The situation here is not optimistic. Li Xiaohui said, handing her and Wei Yi's identity cards to the robot who came to check them.
These robots are constructed almost identically to the human body. They have delicate facial features and a muscular body. Even the walking movements are almost identical. If it weren't for the fact that the uniforms on their bodies were specially made and iconic combat uniforms, Wei Wei wouldn't have been able to recognize that they were just robots and not real people.
The robot reached out and took the identity card handed by Li Xiaohui, and a blue light instantly shot out of his eyes. The light quickly covered the two ID cards, and in less than a second, they shrank back again.
"If you pass the identity, you can enter." The robot nodded at Li Xiaohui and Wei Yi. It handed back the ID card to Li Xiaohui, turned around and began patrolling again.
"Wow, that's pretty cool!" Li Xiaohui actually committed a nymphomaniac at this time. She held her ID card in her hand and looked at the robot she had just left. Wei Yi saw that the saliva at the corner of her mouth was about to flow out.
"Ahem, ahem." Wei Yi coughed a few times beside Li Xiaohui angrily as a reminder. But Li Xiaohui ignored Wei Yi's reminder, and was still looking at the robot with glowing eyes.
At this time, Wei Yi was not happy. Anyone who sees the woman he loves and expresses his affection for another person will feel unhappy. Even if it's not a human being, it's just a moving machine, which is extremely uncomfortable.
"I said, it doesn't matter if we should get down to business." Wei Yi reminded loudly.
"Uh-huh, I know, you wait. Let me see again. Li Xiaohui didn't look back.
After hearing this, Wei Yi rolled his eyes at Chaotian, and stood aside helplessly and waited. Who let this be the woman he loves?
"If you want to see it, you can watch it. It's not going to have children with you anyway. I have nothing to worry about. Thinking like this, Wei Yi simply found a place and sat down.
He waited quietly for a while, and Li Xiaohui reluctantly walked back to Wei Yi's side, pulled Wei Wei up and walked towards the research room, and said, "Ah Wei, haven't you noticed that these robots have very lively eyes?" β
Wei Yi was stunned. He hurriedly thought about it and realized that it was really like what Li Xiaohui said. The look in the eyes of the robot just now was really exactly the same as that of a real person.
Wei Yi nodded, and said as he walked, "Indeed." It's the first time I've seen a robot like this. Before, it was just listening to them pay lip service. β
"No, they're not exactly robots. To be exact, they are synths. It's a combination of a machine and a human body. Li Xiaohui said, and a sparkling look appeared in her eyes again, "This is a great technology." β
As she spoke, she put her mouth to Wei Yi's ear and whispered, "The state claims that this is the latest type of robot. Actually, that's just a faΓ§ade. If I can learn this technique, I might be able to develop something even more advanced. That's my biggest dream right now. β
Wei Yi really understood at this time. It turned out that Li Xiaohui was not a nymphomaniac with the appearance of the robot, she was obsessed with scientific research. Wei Yi couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt in his heart. It was so funny that he thought that he had just been eating inexplicable flying vinegar with a robot.
Wei Yi grinned when he thought of this. When he turned his head sideways and was about to tell Li Xiaohui about his funny behavior just now, suddenly, an extremely subtle sound of breaking the air reached Wei Yi's ears.
A strong sense of danger quickly spread throughout Wei Yi's body, causing the hairs on his body to explode. Without thinking about it, he hugged Li Xiaohui, slammed into the ground, and rolled on the spot.
There was a soft "poof" sound. Where Wei Yi and Li Xiaohui stood just now, several small holes several inches deep appeared in an instant.
Wei Yi hugged Li Xiaohui and rolled quickly, quickly moving away from the danger area. Without waiting for his body to stop, he pushed Li Xiaohui towards the robot that was hurrying over, and shouted, "Hurry up, I'll break off." β
As he spoke, he drew his short knife and jumped up. He used his body to protect Li Xiaohui, his ears moved slightly, and he instantly locked in a direction. He didn't have time to think about it, the short knife in his hand was like a sharp sword, and he slammed it in that direction.
A piercing sword flashed away from the short knife, drawing a pitch-black slit out of thin air. The originally invisible air around him was like a transparent plastic sheet that had been cut open, and it was divided into two in an instant. A strong spatial shock surged towards the distance in the direction that Wei Yi had chopped out.
"Poof". A burst of dark green juice suddenly erupted from the void air. A figure was instantly forced out of the transparent air by Wei Yi. It was a humanoid creature. Its limbs are slender, like many bamboo chopsticks tied together, and its head is pointed, like a prawn in a river.
"It's you again." Wei Yi's eyes narrowed, and he swung a knife in his hand again. But it was extremely slippery. As soon as Wei Yi's blade swung out, it disappeared again.
Wei Yu hurriedly took a few steps back and sealed the intersection to prevent the enemy from bypassing him to attack Li Xiaohui. Just then, a voice rang in his ears: "Please give way." β
Wei Yi was stunned, and before he could look back, a figure quickly spared him and rushed forward. It was only at this point that Wei Yi saw clearly that it was the robot that had spared him that had just checked their ID cards.
The robot's movements were extremely fast, and its form was fleeting. In the blink of an eye, it flashed in the air a few times in a row. And every time it appears, it is far away.
When the robot reappeared from the air, it suddenly threw a punch in front of it. A soft sound of "wave". A translucent creature was struck out of the air.
Without waiting for the translucent creature to react, a beam of particles suddenly shot out from the robot's hand, binding the translucent creature firmly. The robot grabbed the other man in the air and threw it hard at the ground.
There was a loud bang, and the creature was smashed into the ground. This scene made Wei Yi instantly think of some things that Li Mingyu had done.
"It's all violent." Wei Yi was dumbfounded, and subconsciously muttered to himself.
After the robot cleanly dealt with the enemy, it landed lightly to the ground. It walked a few steps to where the creature had landed, and bent down to lift the creature up from beneath the ground.
"Doctor, you've got the sample you wanted." The robot carried the captured translucent creature and slowly walked towards Li Xiaohui.
Wei Yi watched in a daze as the robot walked past him. When the robot passed by Wei Mi, he even praised Wei Mi: "Your kung fu is good." Let's learn from each other another day. β
Wei Yi shuddered at what he said.
"Fighting with you? No kidding, I haven't lived enough. Wei Yi muttered to himself, raised his legs and walked quickly towards Li Xiaohui with the robot.
At this time, Li Xiaohui was closely protected by many robots. She nodded at the oncoming robot and thanked her, "Thank you." Please help me put the sample in the lab. β
The robot answered, and walked into the research room with the captured enemy first.
