United States, somewhere southwest of the Florida Peninsula.

Tang Muzhi woke up and looked through the blue transparent glass at a group of people wearing split antibacterial suits in the distance.

"Oh my God! He's awake, he's awake! Everyone, get out of the lab first! ”

A group of medical staff cautiously left the laboratory, Tang Muzhi faintly heard the pneumatic sound of the metal doors hitting together, his eyes rolled, and he saw a circle of metal around his face, as well as a wheel-shaped object below his nose.

"Non-invasive ventilator ......"

Tang Muzhi found himself immersed in some kind of green transparent viscous liquid, and his hands and feet were trapped by pure steel chains—it was a cylindrical device, small in diameter, but it was enough to stuff him into it alone. The electronic screen connected to this capsule-shaped device next to it displays Tang Muzhi's heart rate, body temperature, brain waves, and so on.

Tang Muzhi felt that his body and Zhenqi had recovered, but what was revealed in his bones was an irresistible feeling of weakness, and he looked inside his body and found that there were no other abnormalities except for a significant decrease in blood volume.

"Hematopoietic stem cells...... It was really taken away, but fortunately it was left behind. ”

Tang Muzhi let out a long breath, cleared his thoughts, and then looked at the few cyan encryption symbols that had just quietly appeared on his left wrist, and sighed in his heart.

……

Outside the laboratory, two blond Westerners, a man and a woman, were observing Tang Muzhi in the capsule through a one-way mirror. The blue light flashed in the young woman's eyes, and she looked at the staff around her who were hurriedly operating the defense equipment, frowned, and said:

"Professor Lyley, I don't understand, who is this person? Why do we have to activate the highest level of defense against him? ”

Laili pushed his half-rimmed glasses, stared intently at Tang Muzhi who was motionless in the capsule, and muttered, "No one knows who he is...... I only know that he is an extremely skilled agent! He has a means of changing his appearance, and has been traveling all over the world for many years to carry out secret missions such as surveillance and eavesdropping, and after we and the official people locked on to his location and released electronic interference signals to surround him, he did not hesitate to destroy his facial features, teeth, fingerprint data and other features, so although we have been controlling this person for two weeks, we still know nothing about his origin. ”

"We gave this guy a custom number S001 for convenience, but I personally don't like the cold way he is treated, and people here call him 'Mr. Mars'. Because of the combat effectiveness he has displayed, we have specially launched a research project. It's just that his personal danger is too great, and there is only so much we can do at the moment. ”

Speaking of this, Lai Li looked at Tang Muzhi's eyes in the capsule and stared at him, seeing those bright eyes, Lai Li felt a hair in his heart, and subconsciously took a step back, "Miss Serra...... This man's abilities are beyond your imagination, and I now suspect that he can even observe us directly through the one-sided glass, and it's not safe here, let's go. ”

Lyley led Serra down from the center console, closed the console's pneumatic metal door, and walked out of the lab and into Lyley's office.

"Miss Serra, please be seated. Although there are some model lakes, it is better to take a look through monitoring for safety reasons. Laili stretched out his hand to open the LCD screen on the desk, and Tang Muzhi's environment was unobstructed, and there were heart rate and other data next to him, which was the same as in the laboratory. Would you like to drink some coffee? ”

Serra shook her head gracefully in refusal, and then said, "So the blood sample that was transported last time came from such a person?" ”

Lyleigh frowned, due to the limitations of technical conditions, he advocated using the influence of the official and the talented Behemoth to cooperate in the experiment, in order to show sincerity, he even persuaded his boss to take the initiative to send a blood sample of "Maas", but the car transporting the blood sample had an accident on the way, and the blood sample was lost, which led to the hiring of Serra, an expert in genetics and psychology.

"I don't have the right to tell you more about this, but in this laboratory, our 'ant nest' can still guarantee your personal safety, please rest assured."

Lai Li looked like an elder and patted Serra's shoulder gently, "I hope we will have a good cooperation in the next work, you are an expert in psychology, and you will have the authority to talk directly to this Mr. Mas later." ”

Sera smiled, "In the face of an enemy that endangers our national security and status, I will naturally contribute wholeheartedly. However, since I will be researching the psychological condition of the test subject in the future, I hope you will not hold back on me, after all, I need to know what he does to find the weakness of such a person. ”

Lai Li nodded slowly, "Although we have limited knowledge, we will still provide all the information about him for you to sift." But there are two points that I want to make clear, the first is timing. My superiors believe that if Mr. Maas refuses to cooperate and we have no effective information from his memory, we will have to lobotomize him and treat him as if he were a corpse. ”

Serra's tone was a little surprised, "This...... It was a brutal decision. ”

Lyrie said with some heaviness: "It's cruel." During this time I have learned from my conversations with them that we are engaged in a war, and that as champions of peace, we scientists are not qualified to speak for Mr. Maas. Of course, I could have done something trivial to give Mr. Maas some human care. ”

Serra said with some mockery: "Humanistic care? She pointed to Tang Muzhi, who was imprisoned and tightly controlled in the surveillance, and said, "This Mr. Mas will definitely be very moved—if he can understand the gap between your thoughts and actions." ”

Lyrie looked away a little awkwardly, "I'm sorry, it's not for me to decide." You might think it's ridiculous, right? I constantly remind myself that he is a dangerous person with a clear purpose, but at the same time he is a poor machine under the control of the state - I have met several such people, they do not even constitute a complete three views, since the moment of birth, they live as consumables, I hope to reconstruct the three views of these people through persuasion and teaching, so that they can break free from the ideological shackles of the original environment and find their own life in this vast and free land. ”

Serra pursed his lips and asked, "I think there are two things worth noting, first of all, since this Mr. Maas can roam around the world, then he must be proficient in many Chinese languages and those cumbersome high-tech equipment; Second, do you see Mr. Maas's eyes? Do you think he's a ruthless machine? ”

Laili swallowed his saliva and said, "I'm sorry, I don't think that a normal person with complex feelings and a sound outlook can do such a cruel and self-destructive behavior." ”

Serra smiled slightly, "Perhaps...... By the way, I think that compared to the information that can be mined and explored in the direction of physiology or life potential, it is not as good as the secrets he has at this stage, why did the authorities make such a decision? ”

"Oh, God knows how the general concluded that he would never reveal his secret by mere contact with the unconscious Maas, and how he persuaded the authorities...... And, Miss Serra, your research in scientific research is impressive, but I think you're a natural politician. Lyrie looked at Serra with a distinctly different look in his eyes, presumably because of Serra's words that made him understand the difference between her and a pure scientist like himself.

"General......" Serra completely ignored the change in Lyri's attitude, and she said silently in her heart.

"If you and the rest of you in our lab can't get any valid information from his mouth or memory within six months, then this operation will be performed by a special person, and there should be plenty of time."

"Now for the second point, before you can participate in this research, we need to sign a special confidentiality agreement."

Lai Li took out two pairs of rubber gloves from under the desk and put them on, then got up from his office chair and opened the safe in the southeast corner of the office in front of Serra, and took out a heavy antique book.

The ancient books were made of some kind of animal skin, and the jacket was made of black dye with large ciphertext and diagrams, which were finally painted in the form of a black mask, which looked very terrifying.

Serra's eyes narrowed, and she recognized the few Greek words written on the thick ancient book.

Lyli struggled to move the ancient book, but he refused Serra's help and moved it to his desk alone.

"Miss Serra, we are both people who have studied the occult, and you must have heard the name of this ancient book."

"Carl Friedrich's book of spirits?" Sierra asked.

With a surprised look on his face, he was relieved at the thought of Serra's expertise, and he nodded and replied, "Yes, after the death of Carl Friedrich, this spiritual book was circulated for a hundred years, and finally crossed the Atlantic and was placed here. ”

"Carl Friedrich's book of spirits, which is said to have first appeared in the time of the ancient Ra, has been unknown to the world. Who would have thought that more than 2,000 years later, the German magician Carl Friedrich showed its power for the first time, and since then it has become a magic prop that all magicians in the world flock to. This book is also said to be one of the cornerstones of the four elements of magic, but it has been banned for a long time due to black magic. ”

Lylie nodded and said: "That's right, and it is widely known that this Carl Friedrich is a narcissistic guy, and he engraved his name on the spiritual book, which is why people are familiar with Carl Friedrich's spiritual book." The first half of the Spirit Book records some dark magic in cryptic words, while the second half is the 'Book of Contracts', which uses some kind of dark magic to plant demonic seeds in the depths of the human soul and force both parties to abide by the agreement...... So, before we can study this Mr. Maas, we need to sign an agreement - it's a decision from above, who have great trust in these ancient occults. ”

Lai Li opened the heavy jacket and turned to the page where the contract was made.

"They trust the dark arts...... I don't have an opinion, sign up. ”

Seeing that Serra was so cooperative, Laili felt a little guilty, the domineering authorities, asking someone to do something, and making such rude demands on the other party! He nodded, and pretended to be relaxed: "Another interesting thing, it is said that this spiritual book will actively seek out its owner, fortunately you don't have supernatural characteristics, otherwise maybe this spiritual book ......"

For!

Before Laili could finish speaking, a dull sound suddenly sounded on the desk table.

"Huh?" Lylee watched the liquid in the coffee cup on his desk shake, and looked at the cold-colored Serra in front of the desk.

"Did the Spirit Book move in your direction just now?" Lylie stared blankly at the table, incredulous.

“……”

“……”

Lyri reacted and grew his mouth.

"Tsk...... I knew that there would be such an accident, so I wouldn't have made so much effort (Chinese). There was a faint blue glow in Serra's eyes.

Lyrie couldn't see the blue light, but when Serra said Chinese, his eyes widened for a moment: "You, you're here ......"

Suddenly—

From Serra's hand, a blue arm that could not be seen by ordinary people stretched out, and the tips of the five fingers composed of Qi emerged in the shape of thread-like True Qi, which instantly wrapped the head of the future.

"Ugh!"

A blue glow suddenly appeared in Laili's eyes, and the whole person fell uncontrollably on the office chair.

"Hmm...... I didn't expect this guy to be a good old man with a consistent heart. Serra pressed a hand on the Spirit Book, and the Spirit Book moved up and down towards her like a living thing, "Let's talk about Tang Muzhi's matter later, let's see how the problem of the Spirit Book can be solved!" ”

Sierra began to search for Dr. Lyley's memory about the automatic search for the owner of the Book of Spirits, although Lyri knew little about the dark arts, but he had flipped through the notes left by various contractors in the book, and the notes mentioned the situation of the Book of Spirits recognizing the owner, at this time, only need to take a drop of blood left in the center of the eyebrows and drop it into the magic element array on the first page of the book to compress the volume and quality of the book, which is easy to carry.

Serra nodded silently in the empty office, she first cut open the thick book coat, took out a miniature positioning device from it, and then pierced her eyebrows according to the method in Lyri's memory, took out a drop of blood and dripped it on the magic element array, the spirit book emitted a gray light, suspended in mid-air, and then began to compress the volume in the order of the upper and lower squares.

Serra felt the elemental power emanating from the air, and the glass of her office began to crack, and she frowned, hurriedly grabbing the spirit book that had shrunk to the size of a baby's palm and putting it in her pocket.

With no internal surveillance in Serra's office, and now plenty of time for her to do whatever she wanted, she continued to reach out and began to toss Lyrie's memories, eventually erasing his memories of entering the office, and then planting a command in his head.

When Lyley woke up again, he glanced at Serra, who was sitting on his stool, a little confused, "Miss Serra, what are you ......?"

Sierra gave him a disdainful look, then smiled and reminded, "Professor Lyleigh, don't forget your mission. ”

Laili paused, and suddenly stood up mechanically like a clockwork puppet, nodded, frowned, and said, "I understand." ”
