After nightfall, the effect of the anesthesia during the operation gradually subsided, and the warden slowly woke up. His gaze was dull and numb, and although he was awake, his soul did not seem to have returned.

The warden felt a piercing chill in his heart, and then gradually felt warmth, more and more warmth, converging into a warm current and pouring into his body, and he could feel his frozen blood begin to flow again. The snow in his body had melted, his breathing had become smoother, and his mind was still a little foggy, but he could already make out the person standing next to him.

"Well, I saw that guy escaped." The warden struggled, trying to get a word.

"Don't worry, we are here, you have lost too much blood, you need to rest well, you must know that your body is very weak now." Kafka grunted, wondering if it was because his mouth was so fat, that even his voice had changed a little.

"If we don't get rid of that monster, none of us will be safe."

"Just let Frankimir take care of it, you said he could do it. Kafka is right, you are too weak, I will inject you with some nutrient solution, and immune-boosting drugs, the wound is very deep, and we are afraid that it is likely to be infected. Yulia said softly.

"I know I've been hit in the leg, tell me how I'm doing, will I be able to stand up in the future?"

"Honestly, it just depends on the situation."

"What a fucking damn one!"

"We'll try to help you."

"No, it's more important than my legs to get rid of that weird guy, or we're going to die. What the hell is that, haven't you ever heard of? ”

"No, not at all, unheard of. I'm an atheist, but I have to say, maybe that guy really came from hell. ”

"Franky Mir, you have proved by your heroic deeds that you are still our comrade. Now that my leg injury is preventing me from continuing to command on the front line, I hope you can take my place and get rid of that terrible monster. The fact that you managed to repel him just now gives us hope that if we can keep up the good work, we will soon be able to achieve the ultimate victory. Please, I hope you will accept this glorious mission, and I think this country will be proud of you. ”

"I'll do my best, if I can, we'll search the cave again tomorrow morning, the monster is already injured, and it's the best time to get rid of it. You can rest assured and wait for our good news. ”

Frankimir was also puzzled by this, and he had not stopped thinking about it since he left the cave, as would anyone who shared his experience. No one can see a monster that doesn't belong to this world and act as if nothing had happened. Where did the cave come from, and is it really the entrance to hell? Of course, Frankimir wanted to find out if there was any connection between this incident and Maria.

"With your words, I'm relieved." The warden sighed soothingly.

"Professor Saul has informed the Ministry of National Security, and I think we'd better wait for them to send someone before we go any further." Yulia suggested.

"Without further ado, I'm afraid that the night will be long and I will dream too much. The guy was injured and now is the perfect time to kill it, and I'd suggest getting rid of that guy early tomorrow morning. The warden shook his head.

As he spoke, Professor Saul and Professor Zhukov came to the infirmary one after another, and when they heard that the warden was awake, they rushed over as soon as possible.

After some pleasantries, the warden returned to the legend: "Kafka, the matter of '2371' can only be bothered by you for the time being. Professor Zhukov, I'm really sorry to make you frightened, or I'll arrange someone to send you back first. ”

"What are these words, during the Great Patriotic War, I also fought on the front line. Although I am old and useless, I am not a person who is afraid of things, I want to stay, with me here, I can cheer up the young people, even a bad old man like me is not afraid, they will naturally not be afraid of anything anymore. Professor Zhukov said with a smile.

Franky Mire really didn't expect that this elderly professor Zhukov not only looked old and strong, but also really had a spirit of not admitting defeat in his heart. As the saying goes, it comes from the heart, and that's not wrong. Eighty years old people are not afraid of that monster, and how can the young and strong people cower.

Since the warden's body was very weak, Kafka and Yulia both thought that they should let him talk less, and whatever was the big thing should be waited until tomorrow, and it was time to let him sleep well.

Considering that the warden's wound might be painful after the effect of the anesthetic wore off, Yulia gave the warden a tranquilizer, which would relieve the pain and help the warden sleep.

Soon the warden fell asleep, and Professors Saul and Zhukov left. Kafka insisted that Francier should be sent back to his cell, but Yulia thought it might be more appropriate to keep him. Kafka knew that Yulia was an opinionated person, and although he was very disliked by Frank Mire, he was not good, so he was furious.

Frankimir was delighted to be there, and though it was not a magnificent place, it was at least a thousand times better than a stinking prison cell. Frankie Mill was lofty, lying on the couch and falling asleep, the couch was warm and comfortable, and there was a faint smell of rosemary, and he looked unscrupulous, as if nothing had happened. The angry Kafka almost didn't vomit blood, Yulia just smiled faintly and said nothing.

In the infirmary, Kafka and Yulia studied the monster's sharp right arm from the warden's thigh for a long time, but they were still at a loss. They couldn't figure out what it was, and despite the fact that the two had put their biological ingenuity to good use, they ended up with nothing.

Seeing such a strange thing, they couldn't think of any creature with such a right arm. The monster looked like a human, but it was clear that it wasn't human at all. The claws of this structure looked like the tentacles of some kind of aggressive insect in the British Empire, but they saw with their own eyes that the monster was not a bug, not to mention that there could be no British bugs in the Soviet Union. If there really are bugs in Britain, I'm afraid that the Third World War has broken out.

However, this is not like some kind of prehistoric behemoth in France, whose prehistoric behemoths are always thick-skinned and even covered in bulky scale armor. But the sickle-like claws didn't seem to wrap around the skin, and the muscles were completely exposed. Moreover, the monster's appearance looked closer to a human than some giant creature from prehistory.

Of course, there is no doubt that this terrible thing is not like the things in the water of Castia, there will be nothing like that in the water. What kind of monster is this, a monster that looks like a human being, but is not a human being.

Person! If you say, it's really a person. In the past, anti-ethical human experiments have been carried out in Germany, Japan, and the United States. However, even so, they were never able to create a completely new organism, which was nothing more than the Germans implanting machines into the human body to make them stronger; Japan implants the immune systems of some animals into the human body, giving them certain animal-specific characteristics; The United States has only changed the original system of mankind itself based on the essence of genes, so that they can better adapt to the combat environment and become out-and-out cannon fodder.

I have never heard of a biologist who can transform a human being into something like this. Human cells and tissues seem to be naturally rejected, and other genes from the outside world cannot be combined to form new organisms. All the biochemical research that uses humans for experiments has ultimately failed to completely change humanity itself. It is undeniable that for a long time in the past, there were indeed many biologists who were engaged in human biochemical engineering research. It was not until the end of World War II that countries called for and boycotted such inhumane human weapons-grade biochemical experiments on a global scale. They signed an entente prohibiting any country or individual from conducting research on biochemical soldiers. Yet, despite this, there are still many biologists who want to make a name for themselves, setting up secret laboratories and conducting horrific illegal experiments, for which police in various countries have arrested many biologists.

Human test subjects used for biochemical experiments usually do not live for more than one year, and the longest is no more than three years. It is for humanitarian reasons that countries have banned this anti-human scientific research.

Since Kafka and Yulia were never able to see any clues, Kafka gradually lost interest, and he thought that some kind of unknown and terrible experiment was going on near the Gulag. Because if he insisted that the monster was a demon from hell, and that huge hole was just the entrance to hell, it would be even more unacceptable to him, so the answer he gave himself was some kind of experiment, some kind of unusual experiment.

Yulia also had this thought, she thought that it could be seen from the appearance that the life cycle of the monster was not too long, and only from nearby could the monster invade the Gulag, perhaps not far from "2371", there was some terrible biological laboratory hidden.

But does this make sense? Can anyone really create such a monster?

Kafka really didn't like Frankimir, he felt that he would be covered with fleas if he stayed with Frankimir any longer, so he didn't intend to stay in the infirmary, so he left the infirmary and went back to his dormitory to rest. In Yulia's opinion, Kafka should have gone to find a woman.

As a result, the infirmary is left with only the sleeping warden, Franky Mill lying on the couch, and Yulia, who still hasn't given up on studying the monster's right arm.

Yulia took a petri dish, used a scalpel to cut off a piece of connective tissue from the monster's right arm, put it in the petri dish, dripped some nutrient solution, and put the petri dish into an incubator.

At this time, Frankimir seemed to have woken up unconsciously. He sat up from the couch and saw that Yulia was still fiddling with the monster's right arm, so he asked in a daze, "What, don't you take a break?" ”

"Huh? I was worried and didn't know what this thing was. Yulia frowned.

"Whatever it is, it won't be a good thing anyway, and it won't be your boyfriend."

"What nonsense are you talking about, I'm not in the mood to joke with you, you know, this monster almost killed us."

"I'm going to kill it tomorrow, and then it won't continue to do evil. I don't know if this will allow me to be released, but I can be regarded as a great contribution. ”

"Have you heard anything about the Biochemical Soldiers?" Yulia asked, thinking that Franky Mir, who was born in the KGB, should know something, not a guy who didn't know anything.

"It's an old proposition, supposedly related to vampires or werewolves. It seems that the Duke of Wellington of Britain, in order to deal with Napoleon, came up with a new type of weapon. And the inspiration came from the legends of vampires and werewolves that were prevalent at the time. However, the truth inside is always between what seems to be and what is not. It wasn't until the rise of Prussia that the biochemical soldiers were carried forward and made one of the most powerful countries in the world. The defeat of Austria in the Austro-Prussian War, the defeat of France in the Franco-Prussian War, and the eventual unification of Germany are said to be all thanks to the biochemical soldiers. They did not know tiredness, they did not feel pain, they were able to march for seventy-two hours without getting tired, and when faced with the enemy, even if they were outnumbered, they did not seem to be afraid, but were still able to move forward. One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and it seemed that all countries in the world began to be enthusiastic about the research of biochemical soldiers overnight, and did not hesitate to spend huge sums of money on it. However, a lot of negative news also spread, and soon people noticed the sequelae of the biochemical soldiers, these soldiers did not live long, completely lost their fertility, and finally completely lost their minds, and began to attack everything they could, and the whole world fell into chaos. The advent of the First World War seems to have temporarily put the problem of biochemical soldiers to an end, and both sides of the war need to commit more soldiers. As soon as the war ended, the problem resurfaced, and finally the countries signed an agreement in Washington to 'completely ban human weapons-grade biological and chemical experiments', although there is a worldwide ban agreement, but the countries still go their own way, they ignore humanity, they ignore the lives of soldiers, they only know victory, victory, victory. The large number of biochemical soldiers that appeared during World War II is the best proof of this. Humanity nearly destroyed itself, and after the end of the war, they finally had to learn from the pain and begin to seriously examine the problems posed by the biochemical soldiers. ”
