Chapter 43: Viruses

"What the hell is this?"

After Zhao Yue walked in, he looked over and was so frightened that he almost jumped up.

Everyone else, including Chen Mu, was taken aback.

Because what appeared in front of me was a head, a head without a body, but with various tubes inserted!

A head is nothing, after all, even Zhao Yue, who is a newcomer, has seen a lot of bloody things, but the most strange thing is that this head is still alive.

And this face is very familiar, exactly like Ben, Dr. Z, etc.

After seeing Chen Mu and the others, his eyes blinked a few times, as if he was wondering why some strangers came.

"Zero is dead?"

After looking at everyone, the head seemed to have guessed something, and his face showed a little sadness.

"Who are you? Or rather, what are you? ”

Chen Mu asked, after a moment of shock, he had calmed down, but with a little curiosity, he carefully looked at the head.

The head is placed on a transparent cabinet that appears to be connected to the entire cabinet. From the transparent cabinet, tubes can be seen extending from under the neck of the head, delivering fluids of various colors.

And at the neck below the head, there is a circular pillar that supports the head, and the head can also be slightly turned in the direction it is facing with the help of this circular column.

"Me?" Hearing Chen Mu's question, his head hesitated, as if it was a very difficult answer at this time, and he had to think about it carefully.

After a moment, the head said, "I used to be called Ben No. 1, but Zero likes to call me 'fool', you can call me whatever you want." It's a pleasure to meet you, it's been a long time since I've seen anyone other than Zero, especially you outsiders. From your situation, since you were able to get in here, and Zero didn't stop it, I think Zero should be dead. I once advised Zero ......"

Ben No. 1?!

Hearing this title, Chen Mu and the others all glanced at each other with a little surprise. Unexpectedly, this head turned out to be Ben's 1 among the clones, second only to Dr. Z. But why is he the way he is?

They had been listening to Ben 1 talking, intending to hear more about the island and about the clones, but Ben 1 seemed to be caught up in memories and kept talking about things between him and Zero, as if he had endless things to say!

Chen Mu listened to Ben No. 1 tell all kinds of nonsense, and he didn't stop it, but walked straight to the side and checked everything in the laboratory.

The first thing that caught his attention were the various test tubes and bottles, which contained a variety of colorful liquids, all of which were numbered. Other than that, there are more tools and catheters, and the whole laboratory is like a normal chemistry lab in the outside world. Chen Mu checked around and found nothing abnormal.

"What kind of monster is this?"

A voice caught Chen Mu's attention, and he turned his head to see Zhao Yue looking at a piece of fur hanging on the wall in distraction.

The fur was estimated to be about a square and hung on the wall, with a dull gray color. After a cursory sweep, the fur was like the fur of an ordinary canine, but after looking closely, especially after seeing the head with its mouth open and baring its fangs, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

The head is about the same size as the head of an ordinary large dog, but it is more hideous and terrifying, and the two dark green eyes are like glass balls, but they reveal a ferocious feeling. Although it is just a fur and a specimen, if you look closely at those eyes, it gives you the feeling that they are alive and about to attack you.

Its teeth, with only a pair of incisors in the upper and lower jaws, look like rodents. However, the pair of incisors were as long as fingers, and even had some curves, and at first glance I thought they were knives.

"Hah, you've noticed it! It's just a test subject, just a test test that fails! ”

Ben 1 stopped talking, turned his head slightly, looked at the fur and laughed.

At this time, Chen Mu finally stopped observing the laboratory, and instead walked to about a meter in front of the cabinet where Ben No. 1 was, looked at Ben No. 1, and said, "I think, we need to have a good understanding." ”

"Great, I thought so too. So let's introduce ourselves happily first. My name is Ben No. 1, but zero likes to call me 'fool', you can call me whatever you want. I ......"

Ben 1 seemed happy to have someone to talk to him, and once again spoke cheerfully.

Chen Mu frowned impatiently at first when he heard his nonsense, but as Ben No. 1 continued to explain, Chen Mu listened more and more carefully. He found that in most of the nonsense of Ben 1, there was still a lot of useful information.

Chen Mu occasionally asks a few questions to guide the narration of Ben No. 1. Ben No. 1 obviously has nothing to hide, and at the same time has a strong desire to communicate, telling everything he knows.

Combined with what he saw in Dr. Z's diary, as well as his own understanding and observations, Chen Mu gradually gained a clearer understanding and understanding of the entire Kloon Island.

From Ben No. 1's mouth, Chen Mu knew that Ben was working in a biological company called "Ambrera" before coming to Clone Island. Later, the work did not go well, and some personal problems caused Ben to leave the company and come to this island. Also brought to the island were research materials from the company Ambrera and a tube of reagents.

Ben was very afraid of that tube of reagents, and just kept it. And he only relied on the information of the "Ambrera" company to develop cloning technology, began to create clones, and became the master.

What happened after that, similar to what Chen Mu saw in his diary, he successively created a large number of clones, including Dr. Z and Ben No. 1, and also discovered the fatal flaws of the clones themselves, such as weak bodies, easy to get sick and short lifespans.

Later, the clones rebelled against Ben, and Ben Zero became the ruler. Ben Zero, who was respected and trusted by everyone at the beginning, changed his personality greatly after taking power, and he became even more inhumane than Ben.

And in order to overcome his shortcomings as a clone, he found and began to study the reagent that Ben brought from the "Ambrera" company, and also discovered the horror of the tube. However, the results are also remarkable, and after a lot of experiments, he finally found a way to overcome the defects of human cloning in a short time, and successfully used it on human cloning.

"What exactly is that tube of reagents? What's so scary? ”

Hearing that Ben No. 1 had said the most important place, but he was vague, Chen Mu opened his mouth to ask.

"That tube of reagent ......" Ben 1 was silent for a moment, as if he didn't want to mention it, but he still sighed and said, "It's actually a virus, a very strong and energetic virus. It allows cells to divide rapidly, mutate, and even lead to genetic recombination and mutation, and grows and proliferates indefinitely like cancer cells. This is a miraculous virus that can change the bodies of all human beings and even immortalize people! It's just that it has a fatal flaw......"

"What flaw?"

"The experiment with the reagent was done by me and Zero, and we only took a 0.1 milliliter of the amount, injected it into a mouse, and then ......"

"And then what's wrong?"

Ben 1 suddenly showed a strange look and looked at the fur hanging on the wall: "Then the mouse suddenly mutated, almost a monster, crazy and murderous, it destroyed the laboratory and even bit my throat...... It cost Zero a great deal to kill it and hang it on the wall of the lab......"

"What, you say it's a little mouse?"

Zhao Yue pointed to a square or so fur on the wall with a look of disbelief, and when he looked at it from a distance, it really looked like a mouse.

Ben No. 1's expression undoubtedly affirmed Zhao Yue's statement, which surprised everyone even more.

"Wait, you said you got bitten off your throat, so how did you ......"

"Hehe," Ben 1 smiled wryly, "I thought I was going to die, and Zero had even arranged to bury me." But I didn't expect to survive, although I only had one head left, but I still survived. ”

"Then why ......"

"This virus is very contagious, and I was infected by mutated mice. Luckily, the dose was very small, so I didn't mutate, but was able to survive because of the nature of the virus. This virus has even improved my flaws, and if nothing happens, it can even keep me alive...... Hehe, this used to be my pursuit with Zero, but I'd rather die! ”

Ben No. 1's words, with a kind of bitterness and helplessness, continued: "Later, Zero realized that the virus was too active, even if the dose of 0.1 milliliter was still very large, so he diluted it many times and continued to experiment until it could improve the body without making people crazy and murderous. ”

"So if someone ...... What happens if someone injects an entire vial of reagents? ”

Wang Shun, who was listening silently on the side, couldn't help but speak at this time.

All the people who saw the scene of this mutation had a slight change in their expressions at this time.

"A whole one?"

Ben No. 1 was stunned for a moment, then looked at everyone carefully, rolled his eyes a few times, and then said slowly: "If you are not directly killed by the virus, then there is no doubt about becoming a monster." Did anyone do that? The reagent was obtained by someone else? ”

"What happens if you become a monster?"

Chen Mu asked quickly, but did not answer Ben No. 1.

Ben No. 1 said: "You will lose your mind, and you will only know how to kill and devour!" ”

"Devouring?"

"That's right! Viruses promote mutation in the body and consume a lot of energy, so they will be very hungry. This monster kills everything and then devours everything, using all the energy to support the mutation, which in turn does not stop...... So this killing and devouring will go on forever......"

Dong Hongfeng asked, "So how do you kill this mutated monster?" ”

Ben No. 1 suddenly had a sly smile on his face, "It looks like this kind of thing has happened, you guys are avoiding this monster, aren't you?" Ha, I've had enough of being here, and I won't tell you how to kill monsters unless you take me out of here. ”
