Volume 1 The Bronze Mask Chapter 27 Shock
In the cold and narrow ventilation duct, Chen Yuqiang endured the unpleasant smell and crawled with difficulty in a prostrate position, his arms and body rubbed against the slimy grease liquid from time to time, which felt like falling into the sewer.
Mo Yu's wide body was deformed by the narrow pipe, almost a circle smaller, and his clothes and skin were tightly pressed against the inner wall of the pipe, constantly making creaking and crunching sounds. On the ground he had climbed, the rock walls were like floors that had been carefully cleaned with rags.
In the memory of female researcher Alice, the exit of the laboratory is equipped with an iris recognition system, and there are elite troops guarding it, and it is difficult to break through head-on.
The elementary school students once again activated their strongest brains, and with the help of the internal structure of the laboratory, they made a plan to break through from the side of the ventilation duct.
Of course, Chen Yu had no opinion, and was even a little moved. If you can use your brain to solve things, why do you have to fight and kill! There is no dress rehearsal in life, when you are Gou, it is refreshing to push all the way like the old thief of Fahai, but in case of misfortune overturning...... Two lines of tears for loved ones. Even if it's just a missing finger, there's nowhere to find regret medicine.
The primary school student has no entity, or the body is as strong as a bear Mo Yu, naturally he will not be affected by the harsh environment, he calmly floated in the pipe, whispering the next plan.
"This secret underground base has three floors, and the place we entered is the third basement floor, which is used to hold the specimens of mutant beasts and modified test subjects; The second basement floor is the material reserve area, laboratory and general control room; The basement floor is the living quarters, where the staff of the base live. β
"I've seen the dragon god in Alice's memory, which means we're not in the wrong place. Ryujin is an experimental subject created here. However, the children who were sacrificed to Alice had not been seen. β
Chen Yu pondered for a moment, then began his words and said, "That dragon god turned out to be something here, so most of the sacrifices were also related to the secret experiments carried out here. β
"That's right," the elementary school student added, "so let's go into the second basement floor to find out." If there is no need to have a head-on confrontation, it is only the two of us, and even if we find them, we will not be able to get people out safely. β
"Well, I've reported what I've found here to HQ, and the broker has promised to arrange support as soon as possible."
There was a bright light in front of the pipe, a vent blocked by barbed wire, and a blind spot for surveillance, which the elementary school students had planned to use to enter the second basement floor.
"It's ......"
Below was an empty locker room, Chen Yu observed it for a moment, confirmed that there was no one nearby, and then took out a short blade and pried open the barbed wire. His legs were tightly pressed against the inner wall of the pipe, and his upper body hung upside down and leaned out, and then his legs loosened, and his body flipped in the air and landed firmly on the ground.
A moment later, the disgraced Mo Yu also struggled out with the help of Chen Yu.
β¦β¦
Basement level, meeting room.
Alan Keynes gazed at an oil painting of a girl in a bath, next to a snow-white Samoyed.
At this time, the guards led the embarrassed Tang Ji, Tang De and He Huan into the room.
At the sight of the living, Samoyed wagged his tail excitedly, instinctively barked twice, and jumped up to get up to get close to them.
Tang Ji said flatteringly, "Your dog is really spiritual!" β
"Really?"
Alan Keynes's voice was not audible, and he turned slowly, took two steps forward with a blank face, and then flew up without warning, kicking the Samoyed spine.
The snow-white Samoyed did not immediately lose its breath, its limbs writhed weakly, its eyes showed endless pain, and it whimpered unwillingly a few times before it gradually lost its vitality.
"Disobedient dogs, it's also a curse to keep them!"
Alan Keynes waved his hand, and one of the guards dragged Samoyed's still warm body out.
Looking at this scene, Tang Ji and Tang De were terrified, and the killing intent in Allen's words was undisguised, clearly killing chickens and setting an example.
Since he casually killed a pet dog that followed him, it was no more trouble to kill them than to kill a dog.
The two brothers weakened their knees and knelt down again and again to beg for mercy.
Allen's eyes were lowered, his expression was cold and disgusted, and he looked down at the late-night visitors kneeling on the soft wool carpet as if he were looking at two beam-jumping clowns.
No one in the room thought there was anything wrong with that. Judging from the huge identity gap between the two sides, it should have been so.
Tang Ji and Tang De brothers only care about kowtowing in a hurry, how can they still have the majesty of half a point of command on weekdays.
"I told you a long time ago that this is not the place you should be. Despicable outcasts, dog-like things, who gave you the audacity to ignore my orders?"
"Untouchables will always be untouchables, and as long as I want to, it will be as easy to crush you as ants!"
Tang Ji pleaded, "Lord Allen, we are also forced to do so. Violet's agent discovers the secret of the dragon god and holds on to it. and slaughtered all of my men......"
Tang De echoed, "We were worried that they would be unfavorable to you, so we dared to come over and tell you the news!" β
"So, I'm wrong about you!"
Tang Ji didn't relax because the other party's tone slowed down, and said in a trembling voice, "It's us who offended first!" β
Alan Keynes nodded, and ignored them.
He stretched out one foot and used the tip of his black leather shoe to pick up the chin of He Huan, who was kneeling with his head bowed.
"You also invited this lady in?"
Tang De calmed down and dealt with it carefully, "She has dealings with Violet's people, and we think she is of some use, so we are good at advocating......"
Alan Keynes rudely interrupted Donde's words: "Then follow the rules of being good at asserting!" β
Tang Ji and Tang De were overjoyed, no matter what, their lives were saved.
"Thank you, sir!"
"One person, one arm, long memory!"
Alan Keynes waved his hand, and a guard came over and dragged the two kneeling people out.
The murderous intent in his eyes was slightly retracted, he looked down at He Huan condescendingly, and said with a smile: "For you!" β
"You must know what kind of answer is more satisfying to me."
β¦β¦
The main control room on the second basement floor, the rest room.
Bolton Keynes, the chief engineer of Biological Laboratory 706 on duty, leaned his back against the wall with a flushed face, and let out a heavy muffled grunt from time to time. He squinted, one hand against the wall, one hand pressed against the woman's shaking head.
The people on duty today were all pushed out by him, and the tension and excitement brought by this challenge to taboos made him fascinated.
At this moment, he had no time to be distracted, so naturally he would not pay attention to the monitoring of the specimen area, and he would not notice that the rotating researcher in the area had not submitted a routine report for 1 hour.
He also didn't see that at this moment, the specimen area number "HZ0039" had a neurological activity index in the data column that soared all the way to red, and soon exceeded the safety threshold.
Alice, the female researcher on duty, was sleeping quietly on the cold floor. Half an hour ago, at 22:30, it was the time for the 6 subjects in Section C to be injected with peripheral nerve soothing agents every day.
She had been working in Biology Lab 706 for a year, and her strict and demanding personality had made her relationships unpleasant.
Although his upright and sharp temper has repeatedly disgusted his predecessors, he has repeatedly asked his supervisor not to come to the stage in public. Even, she mocked to her face that the chief engineer of the base who showed her love was a "kind" without brains. Horse"......
She almost committed all the taboos when she first entered the workplace, but the supervisor still decided without hesitation and withstood the pressure to keep her.
This is of course because of her rich knowledge, excellent work ability and excellent learning ability, and more importantly, her fanatical attitude towards research as her life.
This is a common denominator among the top scientists of the Federation. Talent is not only the lower limit of a scientist's scientific life, but also determines the upper limit, and attitude is the key to whether or not you can touch the ceiling.
So far, she has never made any mistakes in the work process, providing scientific research data that can be verified by the base's supercomputer for multiple rounds, and writing scientific research reports that can be signed directly by downstream links without having to review them, because experience has shown that she can not make a single punctuation error.
But today, due to some unexpected force majeure, there is a huge flaw in her work.
Subject HZ0039 has just completed the transplantation of vital organs and is still recovering. The newly transplanted organs are in intense conflict with the native immune system, and the intense stress response generated by cross-species experiments necessitates twice the usual dose of analgesics, tranquilizers, and novel DH cell fusion reagents.
The fierce war of immune cells going on inside the body has caused HZ0039 to be tormented by intense pain at all times. Its vital signs showed signs of failure, and the bioelectric signal was fading. Unfortunately, a strong stress response and high body temperature caused uncontrollable changes in its gene chain.
The instability of gene fragments is the most fatal flaw of all cross-species composite genetic subjects cultivated by gene editing.
The new genetic reagent has not been injected for a long time, and the shadow of disaster has already loomed over the C area, and the only person who can stop it is still in a coma.
The intense pain inside the body overshadows the paralyzing effect of the thin gaseous tranquilizer.
Subject HZ0039 gradually woke up from its dormant state, and the huge heat generated by the cell-level war in his body volatilized outward along all the pores and crevices, and the layer of armor covered on his body was hot like a red-hot soldering iron, and his mind also fell into a state of manic chaos.
The dark green liquid in the petri dish is boiled and volatilized at the high temperature, rising into large patches of pale green smoke. The liquid sublimated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon completely exposed the subject's reddened body to the air, and the inner walls of the cell's characteristic glass were stained with water droplets, which continued to grow and converge, eventually forming a stream of water gurgling down the glass.
HZ0039 let out a roar of pain, the huge body of the hill twitched from time to time like an electric shock, and the dense and sharp scales rubbed violently against the petri dish, making a harsh sound, but the material of the special alloy of the petri dish was like a paralyzed mud at the moment, and it was stirred by the scales to produce dense scratches, and soon became full of holes.
Its body temperature is still rising, and the body's sweat glands and pores alone are no longer able to vent the heat flow in the body. His dark eyes began to turn blood-red, his nostrils spurted a scorching wave of air with his breath, and his entire body was enveloped in a pink air mass that had been volatilized by the heat.
The fiery sensation that burned deep in the soul melted all consciousness, and it turned into a violent volcano, the magma at the bottom burned and expanded, but it was squeezed and bound by the rock layers, and the pressure inside kept accumulating. It could no longer be satisfied with the darkness and silence of its eternal sleep, and after a thousand attempts, it finally found an outlet to tell everything.
The strength and reluctance of the magma burned through the weakest point of the rock layer that covered it, and the huge internal pressure pushed the magma all the way to the spurt out along the narrow crater.
HZ0039 subconsciously opened the mouth full of sharp fangs, and the upper and lower jaws opened to the extent of almost dislocation. Raging flames erupted from the throat with unwilling rage, and a dazzling pillar of fire rushed forward without stopping, tearing apart everything in front of it.
The feeding tube that probes into the esophagus first melts and turns into a cloud of fly ash.
Then there was a petri dish made of a special alloy, which burned through a huge hole.
Then there was the tempered glass on the top of the experimental chamber, which was baked into a soft liquid state by the terrifying heat in less than a second, and splashed everywhere along the rising waves of flames.
The jet of fire blackened a large area of heavy concrete at the top of the specimen area, and the wires, water pipes, ventilation ducts and other lines hanging from the ceiling were all burned by the flames.
HZ0039 finally vented the heat flow in its body, but it also vented all its life energy.
Its body grew old and weakened, and in a matter of minutes it reached the twilight of its life.
The huge and fierce body suddenly turned into a candle in the wind, and it would wither and extinguish in the next second.
Its scarlet eyes regained their clarity, and with the last of its strength, it looked again at the place where it had been imprisoned all its lifeβ
Crackling sparks burst from broken wires; The short circuit caused the power supply to a large area to be interrupted, and the sporadic light tubes flickered on and off; The bubbling water at the gap in the water pipe remains......
The apartment, which used to be quiet to the sound of only the sound of heartbeats, now ushered in a pre-apocalyptic carnival.
The embers of HZ0039's test subject's life burned through the fence that surrounded him, and also sounded the horn of revelry.
The cage of the "neighbors" who had been with him for a long time was also burned through the corner by this brilliant firework, and it became less impregnable.
A few pairs of scarlet, violent eyes were slowly opening.
It's like a pre-apocalyptic.
The sudden onset of the emergency indicator lights looked a little out of place.
Soon, the shrill sirens finally came belatedly!
