Chapter 27 The Miracle II

At this time, somewhere more than a hundred kilometers away, in a six-story building covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters, there was a display screen twice as large as Helen's side hanging in the central room, on which were also nude portraits of Su from all angles.

Dr. Connor's office is located on the upper level of the central room, with floor-to-ceiling windows facing a huge hanging screen. The silver-haired doctor sat behind his desk, his hands folded, and a pair of bloodshot eyes stared at the magnified full-length portrait of Su more than ten meters away. There was a display screen next to him, and a large number of dynamic numbers were scrolling.

Unlike Helen, who was alone, a dozen assistants were working intensely in Dr. Connor's central room. They each have their own division of labor, desperately parsing the newly generated numbers. And regularly observe the results in thousands of petri dishes, and record even the slightest changes at any time.

Dr. Connor's office rang with a pleasant ringing bell, and he looked at the avatar that appeared on the screen, and with a press on the desk, the office door silently moved to the side. A middle-aged male assistant walked in and said to Dr. Xiang, "All of Su's genes have been imaged, but I think you need to look at this before the cracking results come out." ”

The floor-to-ceiling window in front of Dr. Connor darkened, cutting off the bustling scene on the lower level of the central room and turning it into a giant display. The middle-aged man pointed to the monitor, and a brightly colored genetic map immediately appeared on it.

The middle-aged man walked up to the screen and clicked twice on it with his finger, and most of the genes lit up, he said: "This section is completely a normal human gene, of course, it is the result of eliminating the genes related to the ability domain." From a genetic point of view alone, Sue can be called the purest human being, almost exactly the same as the humans of the old era. Analysis of the ability domain genes showed that all of Su's abilities were autogenerate, and there was no trace of formula abilities at all. In addition, his genetic structure is very stable, even more stable than the original genes of humans, which means that he rarely uses genetic evolution potions, or even does not use them at all, and all the evolution points should be obtained from battles. ”

"A born warrior." Dr. Connor nodded and said, "It seems that the Fabregas family has not lost for nothing. ”

"He's smart enough." The middle-aged man added, "Scans of his brain show that his memory area is about 30% more developed than normal, and although the use of the brain domain is only about 10% higher than the normal standard, which is the entry standard for a smart person, it should be noted that almost all areas of his brain have signs of use, although the traces are very thin." This includes a lot of areas that are not yet known to us for our technology. ”

The middle-aged man continued: "These are not enough to explain Second Lieutenant Su's unconventional combat effectiveness. Any of our simulations have shown that with his current capabilities, it is impossible to survive the training base. And his wounded Yan zhΓ²ng Cheng dΓΉ, even the most powerful mutant creatures could not survive. Finally, the more SCP-2101 is injected, the greater the cumulative side effects will be, and the greater the probability of flare-ups. According to theoretical calculations, after injecting 24 pieces of SCP-2101, the probability that human body tissues did not completely disintegrate is only ...... Two of the minus eleven squares. ”

At this point, the middle-aged man paused, pointed to a section at the end of the gene spectrum, and said, "I think the answer to every question can be found here." ”

He clicked on the screen, and the area at the end of the gene spectrum was magnified and magnified again, and finally Dr. Connor was presented with a dense patch of genes that were intertwined in incredibly complex ways. Not only are those genes intertwined, but many of them even grow directly together, and the tightness of the entanglement is not known to be many times greater than that of ordinary genes. Normally, only two or three genes can be placed, but a cursory look here shows that at least hundreds or thousands of genes are stuffed in!

This gene, like a 10,000-meter-tall building towering in the skyscrapers of the old era, will make all those who look up to it have boundless awe!

Dr. Connor's face grew pale, and he stood up abruptly, his fingers trembling and pointing forward, his lips trembling, and he squeezed out a sentence for a long time: "This...... It's ......"

The male assistant is an expert in genetic sequencing and decipherment, he has obviously been shocked, and he has some immunity at the moment, but when his gaze swept over the magnificent image, there was still an irrepressible tremor in his voice: "Dr. Connor, you are right, this is the gene lock!" It's bigger and more advanced than the gene lock that we haven't cracked yet! ”

Dr. Connor's eyes lit up, and he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, slowly sat down, and stared at the mysterious beauty of the gene lock for a full few minutes before slowly asking, "How much time will it take to break this gene lock?" ”

This time it was the male assistant's turn to be silent. He frowned, tried to calculate in his heart, and finally opened his mouth, and said: "If the planned number jΓΉ array composed of 1,024 comet supercomputing centers can be built, and all the computing power is used to break this genetic lock, then if you are lucky enough, you may be able to complete it in 12,000 years." ”

Dr. Connor's face turned pale, he believed his assistant's words, if it wasn't in the Biological Reality Center directly under the Bloody Council, but in any other Gene Reality Room, the middle-aged man in front of him could be qualified for the role of host, and the conclusions he made were not much different, if not authoritative. The problem is that even the Comet Supercomputing Hubs owned by the Bloody Council have only seven in total. At the current rate of building two units per year, it will take at least a few hundred years for the Academy of Sciences to build a fantastical array of machines.

Ding Dong! The sound of a new message entering the doctor's screen sounded again, and Persephone's avatar jumped out, shaking incessantly.

The doctor connected the communication line, and after a polite greeting, Persephone on the other end of the line went straight to the point: "Is there any progress in the research on the invaders?" ”

Dr. Connor looked at his assistant. The assistant immediately said: "I'm very sorry, General Persephone, we didn't find an intruder at all in Sue's blood sample. It's a strange thing, and I guess it's going to take time to figure out where the real source of the intruders is. ”

"Oh? Didn't find the intruder? Persephone looked surprised, but she seemed to trust the doctor's room, and immediately accepted the answer, and then said, "No, no, no, but according to the agreement, the responsibility for not finding the intruder is not mine, so the advance payment is not refundable." If nothing else, I hung up. ”

"Okay, there's any other progress in the research, I'll keep you informed."

After cutting off the communication, Dr. Connor looked at the genetic lock in front of him, his eyebrows furrowed, and asked, "Why can't you find an intruder in Sue's blood?" Could it be hidden in some organ? ”

The assistant shook his head and said, "It's very likely." But I have a feeling that the invaders are either hidden in a genetic lock, or they have another source, like ......"

"Like the thing that's frozen on the second basement floor?" Dr. Connor's eyebrows were almost wrinkled together.

"Yes, it's like that thing......" The air conditioner in the room was cold, but the assistant was starting to sweat.

On the road leading to the outskirts of the city, an off-road vehicle is driving crookedly, and every now and then it suddenly changes direction. It often starts in a straight line, travels a certain distance, then deflects to one side, then sprints to the other side of the road in a sharp turn, and then turns back at a faster speed until it is completely out of control, and then comes to a stop. Then there is a difficult start, a change of direction, and a quick and slow acceleration, and then a straight line to a shape, and then a repeat of the previous scene.

In the driver's seat of the off-road vehicle, Su was sweating profusely, breathing rapidly, and his hand gripping the steering wheel looked very stiff. He really didn't understand why it was so difficult to drive, Su, who could control his body and make countless difficult movements, was so nervous when he was driving, and the movements of his hands and feet were completely uncoordinated. It's as if as soon as he touches the steering wheel, all parts of his body begin to do things on their own, and his judgment of space, speed, and distance will often be incorrect, and he doesn't know if it's too nervous or for some other reason.

If it was in the old days, Sue might have crashed into an unknown number of cars. However, in the turbulent years, the population of Longcheng, which is known for its prosperity, was less than 100,000, and not a single car drove on the highway for half a day. After all, cars are just something that rich people can afford.

The off-road vehicle driven by Su does not know how many times he has rushed off the road, but fortunately, the special off-road vehicle equipped for the Dark Dragoon Lieutenant is by no means comparable to the vehicles of the old era, not only four-wheel drive, but also strong power, the suspension system that can be freely adjusted between 10 cm and 100 cm above the ground, the explosion-proof wheels that can each carry out 180-degree free steering, and the crawling mode under special terrain are the essence of the new era of vehicles, and it is also the guarantee that Su has been able to return to the road safely and repeatedly.

In any case, after four hours of hard work, Su finally succeeded in moving the car to Barracks 90 on the outskirts of the city. This distance, if Su runs over by herself, will only take an hour.

The 90 Barracks was the station of Captain Curtis. There are a variety of physical training facilities, as well as a machining workshop, but there are few living facilities. The whole station was as disorganized as a large processing plant, with all kinds of mechanical parts thrown everywhere, the standard-sized training ground was overgrown with weeds, and even the barracks, which had been converted from abandoned houses, were covered with dust. In the old days, it was originally a car repair shop, but it was later noticed by Captain Curtis and built his own 90 barracks here. Except for the training ground, which was planned and built later, all the other facilities were simply used in the original building, but judging from the situation that the playground was quickly turned into a grassland, even the newly built facilities were not properly maintained.

Captain Curtis lived in a house with three living rooms, which were very poorly furnished, except for an impressive room full of wine. However, Sue did not see the empty wine bottles that he thought would be everywhere in the captain's quarters, and it seemed that the captain would pay some attention to the cleanliness of his living environment.

Bang Dang! The captain directly twisted the bottleneck of a bottle of whiskey, poured a full glass in front of Sue, and then filled himself, saying, "It's rare that you still remember to find me, come, have a drink first!" Although you are much more beautiful than those, you are indeed a man at heart! ”

Su looked at the full glass of wine in front of him, looked very embarrassed, and kept smiling bitterly.

The room was large, but there was nothing but a bed and a couch that had been broken and sponged. The paint on the walls is peeling off in large chunks, and as for the chandelier, it is not expected to be bright at all. The captain sat on the couch, his wide frame completely filling the two-seater. Su sat in an office chair with only iron shelves that had been moved from the living room. The table between the two of them was actually an ammunition box that originally held cannonballs.

The room was fairly clean, which was all the more commendable considering that it was the captain himself cleaning and cleaning. After all, Captain Curtis had only one servant, and that was a lame old man.

Captain Curtis did not force Sue to drink, but took the wine in front of Sue, drank it dry in one gulp, then stood up, patted Sue on the shoulder, and said, "Boy, come with me." Since you're willing to come and see me, I think I've got something for you here. ”

Sue followed the captain to the mechanical maintenance workshop. The captain moved through a box with a large pile of disorganized parts, started a multi-purpose precision lathe, and in the blink of an eye, the cacophony of metal cutting filled the entire workshop.

"Boy, I heard that you have to stay in the hospital for a few more days, why did you run out now?" No amount of noise could drown the captain's voice.

"My injuries are healed. Also, I can't be hospitalized anymore, that would cost a lot of money. I owe Persephone a lot. Sue watched as the captain gestured skillfully processing the parts one by one.

The captain laughed: "It's okay! That woman is not like me, she has money! You can use it! You see, I don't have anything of value here except wine. ”

Su smiled and said, "I want to know how to get the money, I need this very much right now." ”

The captain was a little more serious: "It sounds like a very strict zhΓ²ng." How much do you owe her? ”

"36.51 million." Sue is very aware of her debts.

Crunch! With a screeching noise, one of the parts that the captain was working on was scrapped.

Curtis stopped what he was doing, looked at Su seriously, and suddenly grinned, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth: "Good boy, you have the ability, you can actually get so much money from that woman!" I asked her for 30 yuan to buy wine. It is also a state for a man to do this to the point where you are. ”

Su smiled bitterly, not minding the slight sarcasm in the captain's words. The captain had saved his life, and he could feel that genuine kindness.

"I need money." Sue emphasized once.

"Well, boy, money! How should a Dark Dragoon make money? It should be clearly written in the manual given to you, go out on quests, catch mutated creatures, and collect resources. There is also one item that is not written in the manual, which is to ask your family for money. Of course, you don't seem to have a family. From your future patriarch, Persephone, there shouldn't be any oil and water left. Or you might consider going to Haunted Street to be a duck, where you should be able to hang your head tag based on your looks. Those old women are going crazy for you, and they are willing to pay at least 1,000 dollars a night, and if you sue them that you have killed more than 40 men in Fabregas's house, you might get two hundred more. You see, you only need to work for ten years to pay back the money. Amid the roar of the machine tools, the captain was teaching him how to make money while machining parts of different sizes one by one.

Sue listened quietly, not correcting the captain's mistake of moving the decimal point to the wrong place.

"Actually, this is! If you make money in this way, then you don't want to pay off this debt in your life. If you want to make money, you have to look at the really rich people, such as those families, how their money comes from. The real way to make money is war! You'll have to open up your territory, explore the vast unknown, and then exchange the looted resources and women for more war resources and occupy more territory. And then there's the part that really makes the money: solidifying your territory and developing your own resources. If your territory is large enough and you have enough resources, then you have what it takes to build a family of your own. Of course, a lone wolf can't do that. You must find your companions, then your own subordinates, and then build an army that is loyal to you alone. Finally use this army to do whatever you want! ”

The captain finished all this in one breath, then removed a piece of the gun from the iron frame next to it, wiped the butter off the gun with a flannel cloth, and then placed the scattered parts on the gun in Kakacha. The ten fingers, which were as thick as steel drills, were indescribably dexterous when assembling firearms, and they had a rhythm that was pleasing to the eye.

In less than a minute, the captain assembled a rugged rifle that looked somewhat similar to Barrett's. He threw the rifle to Sue and said, "Boy, take it, this thing should suit you well." Of course, its performance is certainly not as good as that of the new-age stuff, but the biggest advantage of this guy is that it doesn't cost money. ”

Su stroked the rifle in his hand, and the calm and heavy body made him feel very comfortable. Without any calibration equipment, just a few casual glances, Su knew that the front sight of this rifle was unusually accurate, accurate to the point that he couldn't see any errors. The captain had no drawings at all, and without the help of special tools, he was able to make such a gun with an old machine tool with not very good accuracy and a bunch of parts by himself. With this skill alone, the captain should be a hundred and eighty times better off than he is now.

But looking at the captain with short hair like a steel needle, Su knew that the captain's temper was as dark and hard as his looks, and no matter who it was, it would be difficult for the captain to make a gun. Moreover, in this day and age, there are not many people in the Dark Dragoon who would use such a purely mechanical firearm.

The captain rummaged a few more times in a large box next to him, threw Su two boxes of ammunition, and said, "This is for you." Let's go, boy, I'm going to find a hot chick to drink with and talk about life and ideals. Remember, in the wilderness outside, only wolves can pull off miracles. ”
