Chapter 36: The Mist
Eerie, gloomy, cramped, crowded
This is Qiu Chen's first impression of the underground building of the fashion manor. Compared to the opulence of the above-ground superstructure, the underground building is simply another world. In addition to the laboratory on the first floor, the other three floors are built like a labyrinth. Only the torches provided a faint light in the passage, and the dim light of the fire reflected the shadows of people on the walls like ghosts
There were no rooms on the third basement floor, only prisons fenced off with iron fences, each filled with all sorts of prisoners, young and old, men and women. Although their bodies were still relatively strong, their spirits were all sluggish, and looking at their expressions, Qiuchen thought of the animals in the slaughterhouse
The gap between the surface and the inside is like a small imperial capital, which looks gorgeous and brilliant on the surface, but on the inside it is not known to what extent it has been darkened
"These prisoners all signed contracts with me for the purpose of commuting their sentences" opened their arms and walked in the gloomy corridor step by step. Only when he passed by did the prisoner in the cell raise his head, and when he walked past, it was business as usual: "They will be my stepping stones to the completion of my greatest works of art, my scaffolding, but their lives are meaningful compared to those out there who don't even know the meaning of their existence."
Qiuchen didn't respond, but reached out and scratched it in the air, rubbing it between his fingers as if he had caught something
Didn't hear Qiu Chen's response, Shi Shi looked back at his visitor in confusion, and saw that Qiu Chen just wanted to look around like an ordinary person, he confidently pushed down his glasses and stretched out a finger, "Emperor Gu, I think there are very few people in the empire who don't know about Di Gu, about Di Gu, many people's common sense is that no one can make a new Di Gu now, the largest imitation four hundred years ago, and only made a bunch of inferior products that can only be called vassal tools"
"I've heard Seleuc say that your ultimate goal is to create a new imperial tool?" Qiu Chen looked at the fashion expressionlessly, "The method of making the imperial tool has long been lost, and there are no books that record the relevant techniques or what materials need to be used in addition to dangerous materials, can you imagine all the production methods out of thin air?"
Hearing Qiuchen's rhetorical question, Fashion laughed in a low voice, "Your vision is always limited by your knowledge, that's why I will say that there is no bright spot in your life, only those who are at the forefront can experience the most fashionable things, but those people outside are sad and backward"
Listening to Fashion's arrogant tone, Qiu Chen pouted in puzzlement, "Where did you come to such a conclusion, when you laugh at others as frogs at the bottom of the well, are you sure that others will not look at you with the same eyes?" But what's the point of you telling me that?"
"If you still can't understand it, then I can't help it" Fashion held his forehead in distress, and seemed to be very unhappy with Qiuchen's lukewarm attitude, "It's really displeasing that you put the most cutting-edge, fashionable, and greatest plan in front of you, but you don't know how to appreciate it"
"yes, I'm sorry I wasn't instigated by you as easily as Seleuc," Qiuchen looked around, and he had already walked into an open square secret sealed room under the fashion lead. There were a number of experimental instruments on the walls of the room, some of which had traces of blood on them, "By the way, it was not a wise decision to use your own testing site as an ambush site"
"But I think that the corpse of the test subject is the best time to conduct experiments when he has just died" Dr, the stylish arm waved subconsciously, as if a diner with a tricky taste had found a delicious dish, but the things he liked really couldn't resonate with Qiu Chen, "Especially when I got the most perfect test object at this stage, and this test subject was most likely to realize my dream of making an imperial tool, my excitement made me want to find it immediately and try to make it, If it weren't for the advisor who advised me to be cautious, how could I have risked the destruction of my lab equipment and brought you to my precious laboratory."
"So the reason why Seleuc mentioned you to me was because of your instructions?" Qiuchen asked with his hands behind his back
"That silly girl is too easy to take advantage of" Fashion shook her head "I originally thought that she would become a powerful weapon for me, but I didn't expect that she would actually know you, this is the most valuable part of her plan for me, but this is enough for me to reward her well, um~ I've been thinking about the leg transformation weapon recently, and I will remodel her legs after your problem is solved, the human body is really fragile, but this level of transformation is still a big gap compared to the highest emperor tool......"
"Who is your advisor" Qiu Chen suddenly interrupted the fashion that was immersed in his imagination and asked, "I'm quite interested in meeting him"
"Oh~ You really don't understand what I mean" Fashion clutched his chest sadly, and his hands were clutched like crazy, "Don't you understand my impatient mood!" At this point, are you still unwilling to contribute your strength to my most fashionable project! ”
Qiuchen took a deep breath, "I said, after hearing you say so much, my only interest is the advisor who wants to meet you, that's all"
Seeing Qiuchen's statement, Dr. Fashion sighed, "It seems that the only way to solve the problem is to use the most backward violence, and it really hurts me to damage the test subject."
With that, Dr. Fashion snapped his fingers, and dozens of iron bars rose from the ground, just separating Qiuchen from him, and behind Qiuchen, a bunch of strong men in strange underwear poured in from the doorway, just looking at their appearance, Qiuchen felt that they were no different from the walking dead
"You still have a chance to regret it" in a fashionable tone, as if he had won the battle, "I'd rather experiment with a complete test subject"
Qiu Chen's hand behind his back was withdrawn, and the Ash Messenger jumped into his hand, "You gave me one more reason to kill you, just relying on this group of puppets, do you think you can solve me?"
"You'll find out if you try it," Fashion pushed his glasses, "I'm honored that you're the first person to see my latest work after that friend provided me with a perfect biopotion."
"You are also the first person in the imperial capital who makes me want to do it seriously" Qiu Chen grinned at the corners of his mouth and put on a fighting posture, "Throw all your garbage out, let me see how many things you have that make me sick!" ”
