In a room in the style of a classical court, a young man in a black tuxedo, gold-rimmed glasses, and his hair neatly combed back, dressed and behaved, sat next to a dark gold piano covered with roses.

His slender fingers danced lightly on the black and white keys like butterflies through flowers, and beautiful melodies flew out of his fingertips, flowing slowly through the mountains like clear streams.

His straight body moves with the undulations of the piano, sometimes leaning forward and sometimes leaning back, perfectly melting into the melody.

In the middle of the day, the performance marched to the final chapter.

When the last note went around the beam, the man's eyes were closed, and his ten fingers were still pressed on the keys, still immersed in the state of playing.

After a few more moments, he exhaled softly, with a decent smile on his face, and asked his companion beside him:

"Paul, how is this tune?"

The man known as Paul was swarthy and muscular, wearing a pure white tank top, printed shorts, and thick hairs on his calves. The temperament of the whole person is incompatible with the elegant style of the room. His voice was as stiff as a stone, and he said with a blank face:

"I don't know."

"You!" The young man was not surprised by the answer he heard, and said helplessly, "I will never know how to appreciate the beauty of art!" ”

At that moment, Paul's headphones rang suddenly.

He listened intently for a moment, then whispered, "Mr. Egger, Brother Tang Ji has entered the base and asked to see you. They seem frightened and look embarrassed! ”

Egger's sharp eyebrows furrowed, and he said in disgust, "Filthy reptile, you must have caused some kind of mess again." Throw them out! ”

Paul bowed his head and was about to pass the command over the walkie-talkie, when he heard Iger say:

"Forget it, let them in, it's useless to keep them for now!"

Iger sighed again, as if with some regret.

"My carpet is going to be changed again."

……

In the dark and damp underground corridor, two orange flashlight pillars stretched forward recklessly, weak like candles in the wind compared to the boundless darkness!

Mo Yu and the phantom of the schoolboy floating behind him walked in front in silence, occasionally using wooden sticks to pluck away the dusty cobwebs hanging from the rock wall.

Elementary school students rely on the humidity of the air, the direction and speed of the wind, and distinguish the direction of progress in the complex and tortuous underground corridors.

Chen Yu followed behind them, vigilantly observing the movements around him.

There seems to be no end to the darkness.

The sound of dripping water in the corridor came from all directions, and it was echoed by the collision of the rock wall, and the sound became louder and louder, without a moment's interruption, which made people more and more irritated!

I don't know how long it took, and Mo Yu finally stopped in front of him. A steel gate more than three meters high blocked Ya's way.

Chen Yu tapped it with a dagger, and listened quietly, the echo was thick. He groped around, but couldn't find any gaps or mechanisms.

It's a dead end.

The elementary school student pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "Turn off the flashlight." ”

After the light bulb went out, the temperature in the corridor dropped suddenly.

All the senses seemed to be swallowed up by darkness, and only the sound of breathing and water droplets could be heard.

In the imperceptible crevice, a faint light smaller than a fluorescent insect appeared not very conspicuous in the darkness.

"Found you."

The schoolboy seemed to laugh a little. In the darkness, he focused on the light and groped carefully for a while.

Clicker –

The shadows seem to have been activated suddenly.

Chen Yu blocked Mo Yu behind him, he was not sure if Mo Yu, who had transformed into a primary school student, still retained the powerful abilities of the old monk Fahai, so he could only protect it carefully to avoid accidents.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

After a creaking sound, the gate slowly rose upward. A blinding light poured out through the widening gap.

After about half a minute, Chen Yu's eyes finally adjusted to the level of light, and the scene on the other side of the gate slowly came into view.

Inside the gate is a huge space seven or eight meters high, as long and wide as four standard football fields. Looking at the regulations, it should be an underground shelter left over from the old world, filled with all kinds of transparent glass cases.

These glass cabinets are completely sealed and connected to the outside world by pipes and wiring, the smallest of which is three or four meters high and five or six meters long.

In each glass case, there is a strange mutated creature imprisoned.

Or, it can't just be called a mutated creature.

Because each one has some human organs on its body. Like a grafted plant, the limbs of two distinct species are abruptly sewn together and remain alive.

Some monsters have human limbs on their upper bodies, but their lower bodies are mutated ironclad horses.

There are monsters that obviously have the body of a black devil lizard, making sure to keep the limbs of humans.

There are also some small mutants that have been stitched up to human reproductive organs.

……

Chen Yu's pupils shrank, and he realized in his heart that living biological experiments were being carried out here, and it was the cross-species hybridization and organ transplantation experiment with the highest technical complexity.

Due to the high risk of genetic mutation and collapse, as well as the unavoidable ethical and social cognitive issues, such research was banned in the early days of the Federation.

This large-scale underground base, with neat and complete scientific research facilities, rich research specimens, clear and orderly coding on glass cabinets, and neat planning of water, electricity and other logistics support pipelines, obviously has a very mature operation and management system.

A research base of this level cannot be built overnight. Obviously, it's been running for quite some time.

Most of the mutated creatures in the glass case were asleep, their chests rising and falling slightly with their breathing. The lilac gas wafting through the glass case presumably had a tranquilizing effect.

"Who are you and how did you get in?"

Around the corner, a young woman wearing a work badge and a white lab coat with the words "Assistant Researcher: Alice" engraved on the badge walked out, shouting at two strangers who had appeared strangely.

She was alert and responsive, and almost the moment she saw the intruder, she made the most correct disposition - she quietly pressed the emergency alarm button on the wall with one hand while stalling for time.

But it's a pity that from the moment she spoke up, Chen Yu kept an eye on her actions. The two of them were about twenty meters apart, and there were no obstacles in between, and Chen Yu was sure enough to subdue her before she pressed the alarm.

His body sank, the muscles of his legs tensed suddenly, and then ejected like springs.

Bang –

Alice's eyes flickered, and a figure suddenly approached, obscuring most of her vision. The right hand that had just touched the alarm button didn't have time to press it, and was grasped by a strong hand and could no longer move.

Poof-

Almost at the same time, a tiny silver needle pierced Alice's neck. This is a hidden weapon fired from the elementary school student's watch, the force is well controlled, and the needle tip does not penetrate deeply, but it is enough to make her temporarily unconscious.

Chen Yu supported the unconscious and paralyzed female researcher, held her on his shoulder, and walked back to the dark corridor.

They are in dire need of information inside the underground base, and Alice's presence happens to help them solve this problem.

In the corridor, Chen Yu gently lowered the female researcher along the wall, preparing to wake her up. The schoolboy suddenly stopped him.

"Don't bother, I have a way."

The schoolboy approached Alice, pressed one hand on top of her head, and closed his eyes. An invisible spiritual fluctuation appeared from his palm, and gradually expanded, quickly enveloping the two of them.

This is a means of psychic probing, which can search for recent memories directly from the mind of the person being performed.

Mo Yu, who is a primary school student of death, although the characteristics of his ability are still spiritual, he obviously does not have the tyranny and publicity of the Fahai version, but is more introverted and meticulous, which is very suitable for investigation, reasoning, interrogation and other work.

The ability to awaken also affects the personality and IQ of the person with the ability, which is a novel discovery.

This version is still more reliable, Chen Yu secretly thought to himself, at least it is easy to get along with, he will not flip the table at every turn, blow his beard and stare at him if he disagrees, and attack indiscriminately regardless of whether he is the enemy or the enemy.

The phantom of the elementary school student has faded a little with the naked eye, and it is obvious that he has borne a great burden by using this method. After a few minutes, he withdrew his hand, and the mental fluctuations between the two disappeared.

"Are you alright?" Chen Yu saw that he was not in the right state, and asked with some worry.

"It can last a while! Come with me, I probably know where they are! ”

The two of them wandered unhurriedly through the vast laboratory like tourists visiting a holy place, occasionally pausing for a moment to take pictures of the strange mutated creatures in the glass case.

They almost circled the lab and never ran into anyone again.

"It's a little too smooth," Chen Yu frowned, looked up at the camera that followed them on the ceiling, and said vigilantly, "There are no dead spots in the surveillance here, it stands to reason that we should have been discovered long ago when we came in for so long." ”

"Moreover, the guard is too lax to match its own great value."

"You want to say there's a trap here?"

The elementary school student looked calm, with a strong confidence on his face, "The goal of the action is here, and we can't go back." Please enter the urn or not, just plan it, and solve the things in front of you one by one, what is there to worry about! ”

In fact, the security level of this laboratory is very high, and the building itself is extremely strong, which can withstand the impact of nuclear explosions and earthquakes. When it was originally converted into a laboratory, for safety and confidentiality, only a shaft was reserved to connect to the outside world for the installation of lift transport facilities and for staff to enter. Without the authorization of the base's general control room, not a single fly can fly in.

The vast experimental base is like a huge kettle buried in the ground, and the designers of the laboratory assumed that as long as the cap was tightened and the only exit was guarded, the secrets they wanted to hide would be buried forever in the ground.

No one could have imagined that this refuge left over from the old world would be transformed to leave behind an unknown secret door that could be opened from the outside, and someone would swagger in through it.

As soon as Chen Yu and Mo Yu stepped through the secret door, the monitoring system in the laboratory caught them. However, the precondition for triggering the preset alarm program is that an unauthorized life organism entering and exiting the safety door is detected, or the relevant monitoring indicators exceed the warning threshold.

Because the conditions were not met, they did not trigger the automatic alarm mechanism.

It's like a tomb robber who just closed the door and didn't go out of his way, and directly found another way, digging a robbery hole that went straight to the main tomb, and touched the coffin board of the tomb owner. The heavy mechanisms, swords, mountains and fires outside the main tomb are useless no matter how dutifully they guard them.

The last security firewall is human identification. It's just that Alice, the researcher on duty in the laboratory, has too low a force value, and she was captured on the spot without doing anything.

And in the general control room, which should always pay attention to the monitoring screen of the base, the staff on duty are busy in the small dark room at the moment with the young female intern, how can they have the spare time to pay attention to other things.
