Chapter 6: The Cruelty of Facts
"The gap is too big!"
Not to mention fighting, you may not even know that you are slaughtered, and speed is not a level at all.
From the very beginning, Li Yu had never seen Echo's movement clearly, only knowing that she appeared here in an instant, and there in another moment. Can't catch it at all. And the hand thunder that Li Yu had just thrown out had been split in half at some point.
Li Yu closed his eyes and waited for the severe pain to come.
β¦β¦
"Eh......" originally thought that Ai Ke would treat him like that special soldier, but who knew that Ai Ke actually stopped, did not make any movement, just stared at Li Yu's eyes with his big eyes open. There was no expression that made it impossible for Li Yu to guess what she was thinking.
"Who the hell are you?" Echo asked coldly. "Your pulse rate is too different from Su Yi's, which means that there is no blood relationship."
"Uh......" Li Yu was stunned, but the current situation is best to tell the truth, God knows if she can take a lie test if she holds her pulse, "I'm Su Xiaoxin's friend......"
"Oh." Inexplicably, Echo didn't continue to make any movements, and turned away.
Li Yu made up his mind in an instant, and he must not let them catch him.
One turned, used his fastest speed, and rushed towards Sue, intending to escape.
But before he had run two steps, he stopped.
At some point, Ai Ke had already walked in front of him, leaned an arm on his shoulder, put his head in his ear, and said, "Please don't resist any more...... I'm going to die. β
When the word "will die" appeared in Li Yu's ears, although he didn't have any feelings, Li Yu believed that as long as Ai Ke was willing, he would not stand now.
Swallowed a mouthful of spit, "Why ......"
"Because I'm weak." The four words were like four sharp swords, piercing Li Yu's heart.
Li Yu trembled and gave up the idea of escaping.
Ai could see that Li Yu was in a trance, so he calmly walked up to Su Yi and carried her up.
Walking up to Li Yu, he didn't say anything more, just glanced at him silently, grabbed his wrist, and dragged him into one or two white transformation cars.
It was an old man who was driving, and when he saw Echo getting into the car, he stepped on the accelerator.
Late at night, abandoned gas stations, deserted highways, only a white remodeled car drove away......
β¦β¦
After several hours of running, the car finally stopped, and Li Yu got out of the car under the escort of Aike.
Only then did they find that they had reached the edge of the city, although it was the edge, but there were many high-rise buildings. The car stopped in front of what looked like it was about three stories tall, and the glass on it was still covered with old blue transparent paper.
Su Yi was hugged by the old man and walked out of Li Yu's sight.
Controlled by Ai Ke, Li Yu could no longer take care of Su Yi, and could only watch her being taken away.
Although he looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, Li Yu's hand, which was grabbed by Echo, was like being stuck in a vice, and he couldn't move.
In this way, he was brought into the building in front of him by Echo.
When I went in, I realized that the building was just a faΓ§ade on the outside, and there was not even any decoration done inside.
The two of them walked directly to the stairwell, and what made Li Yu feel strange was that the stairwell here was unusually large, at least two meters wide horizontally.
As a matter of course, Ike chose to go down the stairs.
At the end of the stairs was a huge iron door, and she took out a card from her pocket and swiped it gently.
Li Yu only listened to the sound of countless gears turning around him, and the heavy door in front of him slowly opened, accompanied by mist, and a thick fishy smell came from inside.
It was a white, somewhat bluish space, surrounded by panels of unknown material, without any light source, but it was a little dazzlingly bright. On the opposite side of the wall is a hexagonal glass observation chamber.
Without saying anything all the way, Ai Ke just mechanically took Li Yu to an oblique iron plate bed in the center of the space and tied it with a special belt.
"It's the largest underground research facility in the country, with six floors, each with its own purpose." It was the old man who had just taken Su Yi away who spoke, "Hello, my name is Zhang Hui, and I am the director of this supernatural research institute. β
"That girl...... Where is that girl? Although Li Yu was afraid, he still said recklessly, "Don't do anything to her!" β
"Oh yo yo, okay, she is a precious experiment for us, how can she act rashly, besides, you are afraid that you will make trouble, in fact...... I'm here for your own good, you participate in my experiment, what if I suddenly succeed? Aren't you going to be a superpower? Zhang Hui said seductively, "Isn't it possible to be a superpower person on your own?" You can rest assured, I am just a researcher, not the boss of either side, and my task is only to complete the experiment. β
"That's a nice thing to say, didn't you just say that you never succeeded?!" Li Yu said sharply.
"Hahahaha...... Zhang Hui laughed nervously, "that was before, before this thing appeared." As he spoke, he took out a small bottle from his coat pocket, which contained a small blue stone.
Zhang Hui shook the small bottle in his hand and said, "See?" This, this is a meteorite that came to Earth from outer space after a long journey. Although it is a stone on the surface, but! It is constantly influencing the creatures around it. Let's take a look at this ......" Zhang Hui was like an old friend to Li Yu who he hadn't seen for several years, and kept showing him his research, only to see him take a tablet from Echo's hand, and on it was a video, in a room, all kinds of strange creatures, like a pig with an elephant's trunk, and an eagle with four wings...... But what they all have in common is ...... The size is huge! This was evident from the humans standing next to them watching, the smallest being as tall as two people.
"These are all creatures around the meteorite landing site, in order not to cause panic, we secretly caught all the others except those that were hidden very deeply, for us to study, but we have not been able to find infected humans to study......" Zhang Hui opened his mouth as he spoke, "However, now it is different, with the help of those mercenaries, we have found the humans who are most likely to be infected!" Sue is one of them! For that, I would like to thank you in particular! Protected her from the hands of the white Grim Reaper. β
Hearing this, Li Yu's pupils quickly shrank, and the events of that night resurfaced in his mind.
"You know the situation?! How is Su Xiaoxin? Is she still alive? Li Yu was a little excited.
"What are you excited about? I'll tell you! That Su Xiaoxin of yours is at most a lv3 level, and that white death is lv4, or the most cruel and terrifying kind of person! Zhang Hui patted Li Yu on the shoulder, "Alas, what am I talking to a dirt bun, anyway, the target who escaped from the hands of the White Death has not yet appeared!" This is also the origin of his name. β
Li Yu gasped, and the whole person fell into a state of almost collapse, and he didn't even feel the inexplicable tears flowing from the corners of his eyes, because the only chance for him to be rescued was gone.
"Hey, you're going to have to hold on! If you die, the only normal person I have to experiment with now will be gone! I've been able to extract the original recipe from those monsters lately! But the two hundred people before all died inexplicably, and obviously the recipe was not wrong......"
"Echo, go get another syringe and a vial of the solution I configured."
Eco nodded, and strolled away.
"Isn't she a superpower? With so much effort, why don't you experiment with her? Li Yu, "Could it be that you are reluctant?" β
"She? Who said she was a superpower? She was...... Similar to androids...... The same cannot be said of it...... She's a human being I've modified! "I replaced her internal organs with my own artificially cultivated internal organs." Because I bred her, I made some modifications to her internal organs, causing her to lose her expression, but gain great strength, and extreme speed! That's why the country would find a biologist like me to do this. β
"You're just a weirdo!" Li Yu said tremblingly.
"Haha, huh? A lot of people say that. Zhang Hui smiled and took the medicine bottle and needle in Echo's hand.
Insert the glass filled with blood-red liquid from above with a syringe and slowly draw the solution into the syringe.
After pulling it out, it faced upwards and squeezed out the air, and the half-joking expression before disappeared completely, "Li Yu, this is the superpower-stimulating potion I researched, but two hundred people were tortured to death by it before." If you succeed, it means that the potion works. I can then abandon my research on Su Yi and turn to you! β
Li Yu's originally confused eyes suddenly disappeared when he heard this, and said, "If I can keep this strange person away from Su Yi, I won't die!" β
"Well, just wait for you to say that, don't die......" As he spoke, Zhang Hui rolled up Li Yu's sleeve, inserted the needle into his arm, and injected the solution into his body.
A tingling pain came from his left shoulder, and Li Yu instantly gritted his teeth.
Suddenly, it felt as if electric water had been injected into the body, and a sharp pain began to spread from the arm.
From the left shoulder, to the left hand, to the chest, and then spread all over the body! The whole body began to convulse and convulse, like countless rushing currents violently passing through every vein of the body.
"Quick! Hold him down! Zhang Hui shouted.
Ai Ke immediately stepped forward to help Zhang Hui hold Li Yu.
"Ah!!h A scream of pain came from Li Yu's mouth.
The severe pain made Li Yu want to roll on the ground, but he couldn't move at all because he was tied to the belt, and could only frantically grasp the steel plate bed with his fingers.
Blood gushed out of his nose at the beginning, followed by ears, eyes, and finally mouth.
There were even a lot of blood beads oozing from the skin.
The piercing pain made Li Yu unbearable, and he even began to have a trance in his consciousness......
"Or ...... Failed...... Ha ha...... Hah......" Zhang Hui raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Alas...... It seems that we still have to adjust the formula...... Let's go......"
After speaking, Zhang Hui and Aike didn't look at Li Yu again.
He was left alone bleeding and died tragically on the cold test bench......
