Chapter 45: Increasing Longevity
Langton looked at the bloody wound, his brain blank.
It took a long time to come back to his senses and look around in horror.
This is the residence arranged for him by the high-ranking leader, not to mention how high-level, but there are all that he should have, and he usually has no requirements for these things.
But just now, the robot that has been serving the daily life suddenly didn't know what was crazy, and pulled out a knife and cut it down while he wasn't paying attention, but fortunately he suddenly felt thirsty at that time, and coincidentally avoided the fatal blow.
took out the bazaar tool, pressed the button of automatic packaging, and the white bandage was slowly wound up.
The disinfectant water touched the wound, clicking, and the large wound was sewn up by a subtle growth needle, and the left hand was originally so painful that it could not lift it, but now it can resume normal movement.
Langton turned off the energy supply system in the house, and slowly fell into darkness.
Who the hell is it?
Who is going to kill themselves?
The order to bring himself back was given by Chen Zeng, the leader of the High Leaders, and through that conversation, Langton already knew the other party's attitude.
At least they don't do it on their own until the research is not done.
But now it seems that things are far from being as simple as I imagined.
It seems that this high-collar is not monolithic.
Suddenly, the door of his house was directly broken, and he was terrified, could it be that he was going to solve himself so soon?
"Langton? You okay? ”
Listening to the familiar voice, his heart was slightly relieved.
"Xie Lan, I'm here." Langton got up from behind the couch, and Xie Lan hurriedly walked over, followed by a group of heavily armed high-collar guards.
"Just now the system showed that there was an abnormality in the smart device in your room, what happened?"
Langton lured him over and saw the shattered robot.
"Just now this thing suddenly slashed me with a knife, and I was also a little injured, but this thing disintegrated directly."
"Huh?" Xie Lan walked up to the robot, leaned over, pulled out the core chip, and shook his head, "Self-destructing program, I don't remember that our intelligent AI here installed this kind of thing." ”
"Isn't it safe inside the high-collar as well?" Langton looked at him with no wave in his eyes.
"A high-collar is absolutely safe, but you are not a high-collar."
He understood this sentence, to put it bluntly, he was a mercenary, and he only temporarily enjoyed the rights and interests brought by the research results.
"Researcher, please look at this." A high-collared guard walked over with a black object in his hand, unknown what it was.
Who would have thought that in the next second, the guard pounced on Langton, Langton was horrified, and wanted to dodge but found that it was too late.
Xie Lan was also frightened, with a panicked look on his face, and the guards behind him did not hesitate to shoot at their companions.
Boom~
The blue light flickered, and the guards who got close gradually regained consciousness.
Then there was a series of screams, blood dripping, and the body rolling to the ground, extremely bloody.
"Ahhhh
Langton opened his eyes to the screams, looking around in confusion.
Only then did I realize that I didn't know when a ring of shields appeared around me.
"Damn!" Xie Lan said viciously, and then looked at the location of the guard just now, and neat cuts appeared around him, and this cut continued to extend, just to Langton's feet.
It's another murder!
Langton wiped the cold sweat from his head, and sure enough, there was a faction that wanted to cut himself off as soon as possible!
Xie Lan pressed the device, the shield dissipated, frowned at the guards screaming on the ground, and connected to the emergency contact.
"Area A 305 applied for support, and we were attacked by an unknown attack."
"Received and received, reinforcements immediately."
After Xie Lan hung up, he said to Langton, "Let's go!" ”
"Let's go? Where to go? ”
"Where is it safe now, this is your place, and it has been attacked one after another!" Langton yelled, he wasn't a good-natured man, but coming to this strange place would inevitably make him a little more guarded.
But today, three people want to kill themselves, how can they bear it!
"Langton!" Xie Lan shouted, "Calm down! We are researchers, and the leaders will protect our safety! ”
"Now let's go to the chief, I don't believe anyone rushed to kill you in front of the chief!"
Langton didn't say a word, and the two shuttled through it, and sure enough, they encountered some problems.
But I don't know if it's his delusion or what, every crisis is narrowly avoided by him.
For example, when they were just passing by the laboratory, there was a sudden explosion, and it happened that the door was closed tightly, and they only received the aftermath of the impact.
Another example is the beast that is running wild in front of you, which is the result of the research of the biogroup, and it is said that it was developed based on Avenger's genes, and it is the proud work of the biogroup.
I don't know what went crazy, I shook my long tongue and ran wildly.
Just as the beast was about to catch him, a laser from nowhere pierced through the opponent's brain in an instant, and his huge body fell heavily to the ground.
"Someone helping us?" Lang Dun said happily, Xie Lan nodded, "Hurry up, there is definitely a big problem inside!" ”
Soon the two of them arrived at the office of Chen Zeng, the leader of the high-ranking leaders, and unlike usual, this time there were no guards guarding the door.
As soon as Xie Lan wanted to call, the door automatically opened.
"Come in."
As soon as the two entered the door, they saw Chen Zeng holding a high-tech pistol against the head of a man in a green military uniform, and a group of old men and women in white high-necked uniforms beside the officers, who were pressed to the ground by a group of guards, with their heads bowed.
"Chen Zeng! You lunatic! Are you going to betray us? An old man roared, and as soon as he spoke, he was slapped by the guard next to him.
"What's the matter, treating the elderly like this? How do I teach you in a normal way? Chen Zeng reprimanded a few guards, walked up to the patriarch who was shouting just now, pushed the guards away, and helped the patriarch up.
"You ......"
As soon as the patriarch was about to say something, Chen Zeng kicked him out, and the strength of this kick was amazing, and the whole person was directly embedded in the wall.
Needless to say, the building materials of the high collar are definitely top-notch.
"Did you learn?" Chen Zeng smiled at the guard just now.
The guards nodded hurriedly, and Chen Zeng smiled with satisfaction and set his eyes on Langton and Xie Lan.
"How? Are the two research institutes alright? "It's still the same as when I first met, I look ordinary, and I have an easy-going smile on my face.
It can be seen that the scene just now, Langton definitely does not dare to equate him with ordinary people.
"Thank you for the chief's care, I'll get away with it."
"Are you...... Xie Lan? Chen Zeng walked over and patted Chen Zeng on the shoulder, "Very good, thanks to you, I let Mr. Langton stand in front of me." ”
"This is the responsibility and obligation of subordinates, and it is naturally incumbent." Xie Lan said respectfully.
"Hahaha, that's good, if we are all like Researcher Xie, we will definitely go to the next level."
"Researcher Langton, you're my treasure, whoever can have an accident can't have an accident." Chen Zeng took Langton's hand and exaggerated, Langton was a little uncomfortable and just smiled.
"So, please punish these offenders now, don't worry about anything else, do whatever you want."
As soon as the words fell, several elders pointed at Chen Zeng in horror: "Chen Zeng, you crazy person!" You're going to pay for it! ”
"The price? Is it a price to let you old bastards go to hell? Chen Zeng said disdainfully, "The high-level leaders need to innovate, and I am the pioneer of this era!" ”
Chen Zeng delivered a gun to Langton, handing over the power of life and death to him.
"Mr. Langton, kill as much as you want, this is what they won, you don't have to have any mental burden!"
Langton trembled a little with his pistol, he was a pure scientific researcher, although he had no mercy for the test subject, but it was still tormenting to really hold a gun to kill.
Xie Lan stood aside and did not speak, he knew that, as the leader said, change was coming.
In the past, the patriarchal faction and the leader faction were all restrained by each other, and both of them controlled a part of the resources of the high-ranking leaders, and for a while no one could help anyone, but today I don't know what went wrong.
First of all, there are endless assassination methods against Langton, and I originally wanted to come to the leader to take refuge here, but when I came, I saw such an unexpected scene.
"Chen Zeng, if you kill us, we will never be able to master the high-ranking leader!"
"Then you can kill them all." Chen Zeng didn't care, clapped his hands and came to the door with a tall figure.
Several elders looked at the monster, each showing despair.
"Mecha! You've colluded with mechs! ”
Xie Lan and Langton were awe-struck in their hearts, mecha? This is a character that terrified the people of Liberty City decades ago.
Famous for his powerful exterior body modifications, he was the absolute king of his era, the legend of Liberty City, and the king of the city!
"Collusion? What are you kidding? ”
The mecha walked up to Chen Zeng and knelt down on one knee, and a deep voice came out.
"Master."
"Well, good job."
"Mr. Langton, are you still hesitating?" Chen Zeng asked Langton with a smile, although it was an easy-going smile, but in Langton's eyes, it was like the most terrifying demon.
He knew that this was a vote, and if he didn't shoot today, he would probably die himself.
He held his gun and pointed it at the senator below.
Bang.
Not to mention the head, the entire body disappeared directly, leaving only a few pieces of flesh rolling down on the ground.
Langton gasped for breath, barely relieving himself.
"Go on, and this traitor, you probably don't know, it's this bastard who came up with the assassination plan." Chen Zeng patted Luo Dehua's head, and then he saw that he didn't know when he had lost his tongue, and blood kept gushing out of his mouth.
"Shoot!"
Boom~
It was the same scene again, the gun fell to the ground, and Langton lost his strength and fell backwards, but fortunately Xie Lan caught him.
"Very good, Researcher Xie will implement the high-collar plan for Mr. Langton in a few days, and welcome him to officially join the family of our high-collar people."
The rest of the people were easily settled by him, and Langton didn't know what was going on, he had been living in Xie Lan's residence.
When he woke up again, it was already two days later, and the leader and core personnel of the High Leader had gone to the Heaven Protector to participate in the Heaven Protector meeting.
"Awake? Congratulations to Langton for being a member of our high collars. Xie Lan handed him a glass of water, and Langton took it in a daze.
"What happened?" Langton's voice was hoarse, and then he felt like his throat was going to smoke.
A glass of water down your throat to feel better.
Langton always felt something different, but he didn't notice what was happening.
"What have you done to me?"
Xie Lan smiled: "What else can you do to make you immortal." ”
"Immortality?" Langton was stunned, he really had to be one of the high collars?
"The transplant for you is a new generation model, and if you supplement nutrition normally, it should be able to last for more than a hundred years."
"When the time comes, I will transplant the second generation to you, and the life span can be extended by another hundred years."
"Supplementation, what do you mean?" Langton grasped an extremely important word.
"Hehe, now you'd better not know, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
"Say!"
"Langton, do you know the history of the Chronology before and after its birth? In this era, people are immersed in the achievements brought about by various technologies, but they are much indifferent to the history and culture that people paid the most attention to before the pre-epoch, at least among us scientific researchers, this concept is more prevalent. ”
"Before the Epoch? This period of history has been blocked, except for the heads of several major forces, most people should not know about it, and now let alone history, even astronomy is not open to the people. ”
"Not bad! You haven't thought about the reason for this? I noticed it when I was protecting the heavens before, why is the Xie family called the Protector of Heaven? What is the sky they are protecting? ”
"It wasn't until that day when I took care of my ancestors that I learned that our world is far from as simple as we imagined, it is a world woven of lies."
Xie Lan's eyes lit up, and he was aroused to talk.
Langton really didn't have much say on this, but he was still interested in listening.
"Officially, the resources of the entire planet feed a city, and so Liberty City was born, a city far beyond the achievements of previous civilizations, he stands in front of us, and we live in it, and that's not wrong!"
"Hmm."
"But what about outside the city? Have you been there or have I been? Why don't the major powers show the satellite maps, and what are they hiding? ”
"I knew that day that these forces, no, including everyone living in this city, we are all sinners!"
"Sinners?" Langton was puzzled.
"It's an extremely complicated history, do you remember the plan that the leader told you?"
"He's based on the results of soul research, to be precise, it's still an upgraded version of your life-increasing technology, immortality is still an impossible thing."
"It's just that what is achieved is relative immortality."
"That's right, no matter what race or civilization, what they pursue is eternity, which is true both individually and collectively, and this sealed history is how it unfolds......"
