Chapter 274: Into the Tiger's Den

Wei Yi didn't say a word, and his body quickly disappeared in place. By the time he reappeared, the researchers were all lying on the ground. "Change into their clothes. Fast. Wei Yi dragged the researchers quickly towards the door.

Once they were all inside, the door closed silently again. Wei Yi searched carefully from the unconscious researcher and found a key card to open the door. He quickly put the key card in his pocket, and Wei Zitong each got a set of researcher's clothes, and quickly changed them.

They quickly changed their clothes and walked down the hallway inside the door. This is a very advanced research laboratory. All kinds of advanced equipment will only be available in Wei Yi's era. Wei Yi walked among the instruments, and his mood became heavier and heavier.

"Look at the way it looks here, they've been in business for a long time." Wei Yi said slowly, "If we can't stop them as soon as possible, I'm afraid there will be even greater disasters." ”

Everything here has completely exceeded the situation that Wei Yi could have imagined. It's not just these advanced instruments, but also the ever-expanding virtual world.

"Huh! So much equipment!" Wei Zitong exclaimed, "I haven't seen a lot of them. How can they be so advanced? ”

"Don't sigh yet, hurry up and find out if there is a controller or something. Since your brother is here, he must be locked up somewhere. Wei Yi said.

Wei Zitong hurriedly answered and searched for it with Wei Yi. But there is a lot of equipment here, and there are a lot of categories and varieties. Wei Yi's layman was at a loss at all. Even Wei Zitong knows a little bit about it.

They have been fumbling around here for a long time before they gradually have some clues. "Say, where did they get all these things?" Wei Zitong asked suspiciously.

Wei Yi shook his head and smiled, thought about it, but still didn't tell Wei Zitong the truth. He didn't know if he told Wei Zitong that these devices might come from a future time and space, then Wei Zitong would continue to ask. Once Wei Zitong continues to ask, then she will inevitably ask all the details of Wei Yi. That's not good.

Who can't be interested in people and things from the future? If, because of this, something unexpected happens, it will be really bad.

"Who knows!" Wei Yi shrugged his shoulders and said casually, "Maybe they developed it themselves." In short, our focus is not on this issue now, let's quickly find out where the heat stroke controller is. ”

Wei Zitong glanced at Wei Yi, nodded, and stopped asking. They continued their search in silence.

"Look, this one looks like the hub controller." Wei Zitong suddenly said to Wei Yi. As she spoke, she walked up to the largest instrument and looked at it carefully. After a moment, she reached out and pressed a key.

The sound of the machine lifting and lowering quickly sounded after Wei Zitong pressed the key. The center of the entire research room suddenly opened on its own. A huge tank, in front of Wei Yi and the others, slowly rose from the ground.

After the tank was fully raised, Wei Yi could see the situation inside the tank clearly. The tank is filled with a light blue liquid. At the center of the liquid, a person was suspended in the middle of it. Countless tubes were inserted into his body. But it seems that his life is still going on.

What made them even more strange was that many of the pipes connected to this person were not transporting liquids, but transmitting some kind of signal to the outside.

As those signals are transmitted, the liquid in the tank is constantly decreasing. But soon new fluids began to fill in. And with the appearance of this tank, many screens suspended in mid-air also appeared in the air.

On those screens, all kinds of images were displayed. But there are a few pairs of them that Wei Yi and Wei Zitong are very familiar with. It turned out to be the city of the virtual world they had entered.

"God, that's Longquan Village. It's the place you call Broken Soul Bridge Village. Wei Yi pointed to one of the pictures in surprise and blurted out.

But Wei Zitong did not respond to Wei Yi. She stared at the man in the tank in a daze, her eyes moistening. "Brother!" Wei Zitong walked to the tank, slapped the tank, and shouted loudly.

Only then did Wei Yi understand. He hurriedly walked up and helped Wei Zitong find the mechanism to be opened. But they fumbled around for a while, but found nothing.

At this moment, the person in the tank seemed to hear Wei Zitong's voice. He slowly opened his eyes, stared at Wei Zitong and looked at it, and suddenly became a little excited.

Wei Zitong wiped the tears from her face and said quickly, "You wait, I'll get you out." ”

As she spoke, she got up and quickly went find a wrench, and with a wave of her hand she was about to smash the tank open. But the person in the jar was desperately shaking his hand at Wei Zitong at this time, stopping Wei Zitong.

Wei Zitong stopped in confusion, and was about to ask in confusion, when a screen in the air suddenly changed, turning into the appearance of the person in the tank. "Xiaotong, listen to me." The man on the screen said to Wei Zitong.

Wei Zitong hurriedly looked up at the screen. "The liquid around me is mixed with the venom of the blue-ringed octopus. You should never open here. Once you turn it on, you and your companion will be poisoned to death. ”

Wei Zitong disagreed, she said stubbornly: "I'm not afraid." I'm going to get you out. ”

She raised her hand and tried to smash the tank with a wrench. The person on the screen hurriedly stopped Wei Zitong in a loud voice. "Xiaotong, I'm really happy to have you here." He said to Wei Zitong slowly, "I've been trapped in this place for a long time. To be honest, I would love to leave too. I long to leave every day. But I can't leave now. You see. ”

As soon as his words fell, several screens in the air also quickly flashed a lot of data. "They used my work to create a virtual world. And I was one of the cores of the virtual world. Wei Zitong's brother said slowly, "My body has been completely transformed. If I get out of here, I'm going to die. ”

As he spoke, he glanced into the distance longingly, and said to Wei Zitong again: "There is only one thing you have to do now, which is to understand my life immediately." Don't let me go on like this. ”

Wei Yi and Wei Zitong were shocked when they heard this. Wei Zitong looked at Wei Yi in a little panic, and didn't know what to do for a while. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, and her heart was a mess.

And Wei Yi also looked at the man in the air in surprise, almost unable to believe his ears. "Isn't there any other way?" Wei Yi took a few steps forward and asked.

The man stared at Wei Yi, shook his head, and said, "I can stay alive because my brain is one of the keys to maintaining the virtual world. You saw it too. The tank I'm in, the liquid in it, is highly toxic. But these highly toxic substances are one of the necessary substances to maintain the virtual world. I'm better off here than dead. ”

As he spoke, he said to Wei Zitong again: "Even if you insist on getting me out, you will find that as soon as I get out of this tank, life will be worse than death." I wouldn't have survived for a few minutes without anyone else's hands. Rather than let me live and die, I would rather be liberated. As long as you cut off the supply of these liquids, I will be liberated. Help me, Xiaotong. ”

He said, looking at Wei Zitong with an extremely eager look. Wei Yi couldn't bear to look at it from the sidelines. But there was nothing he could do. The person in front of him has obviously been transformed into something like an artificial battery. Even if Wei Yi could forcibly rescue this person, it would only make him die a painful death.

"Fulfill him." Wei Yi walked up to Wei Zitong and said slowly, "Help him get rid of his pain and let him be free." ”

Wei Zitong looked at Wei Yi blankly, and nodded for a while. There was a deep reluctance in her eyes, but there was nothing she could do. The relatives she had spent countless hours and energy saving turned out to be such a result in the end, which made Wei Zitong's heart very painful.

But she also couldn't watch her brother endure torture like this anymore. Wei Zitong nodded slowly with tears in her eyes and agreed.

She stared painedly at the man in the tank, and slowly pressed a red button on the central controller. The piercing siren sounded in an instant. The liquid in the tank, after Wei Zitong pressed the button, fell rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The man in the tank grinned slightly at Wei Yi and the others. There was a happy look in his eyes that had been completely relieved. He looked at the outside world yearningly, with infinite anticipation on his face.

In the last moments of his life, he reached out and stroked the inner wall of the tank, as if to wipe away the tears that kept flowing from Wei Zitong's face. But the thick walls of the tank completely cut him off from the outside world.

He looked at Wei Zitong quietly and said something slowly. Wei Yi vaguely guessed through his mouth shape that he was saying to Wei Zitong: "Live well." ”

There was a loud "boom", and suddenly, at this moment, it rang out violently from a distance. Wei Yi listened attentively and heard many hurried footsteps. He hurriedly ran to Wei Zitong's side and said, "Hurry up, they're in." ”

Wei Zitong stroked the tank with both hands, as if his spirit had disappeared, and he ignored Wei Yi's words. Wei Yi heard the footsteps in the distance getting closer and closer, and without thinking about it, he picked up Wei Zitong and ran into the distance.

But Wei Zitong seemed to have lost her mind at this time, she pushed Wei Yi away, screamed and ran to the tank, crying heartbreakingly. Wei Yi stomped his foot, and his body quickly disappeared in place.

When he reappeared, Wei Zitong fell to the ground and was stunned by Wei Yi's palm. "I'm sorry. Now that the situation is critical, I'll apologize to you when I get out of here. Wei Yi said apologetically to Wei Zitong, who had passed out in a coma, picked up Wei Zitong and quickly rushed out of the research room.
