227. Past and Problems
Sexton, the head of security, appeared in front of Latona:
"What are you doing here?"
Latona breathed a sigh of relief
She shrugged as usual:
"I have urgent information to report to the director, but you also know what kind of person our director is, and that guy left a 'I'm going out for a walk' on the record, and didn't even leave a location, so I had to do it myself. ”
Sexton didn't let his guard down immediately:
"Latona, didn't you take two months off?"
Latona sighed:
"There was a little conflict, but I didn't worry about my team after being away for too long. ”
Sexton agrees:
"Children are like that, there are always rebellious periods, and sometimes you have to choose to let them go their own way. ”
Latona looked at him suspiciously.
Sexton coughed lightly:
"Even though I didn't have children, I used to be a child. ”
Sexton says:
"One last question, routine, password?"
“B-23114。 ”
Sexton nodded:
"Go ahead, Lady Latona, forgive me, after all, the shapeshifters' abilities are too dangerous. ”
Latona smiled:
"Of course, safety is crucial. ”
Sexton motioned for her to take care of herself, then turned away.
It was only after Sexton's footsteps had completely died down that Latona continued her search.
Where would a madman like Garrett put that information?
The reason why she chose to come here to search instead of waiting was obvious - she didn't think Garrett would go out of his way to hide the information of the past, and that it was impossible for anyone to enter this place except in this case, which is why Sexton came to take a look.
If she were Garrett, a madman who had lost his family, where would she put the information that destroyed his life?
She looked at a small pink desk in the corner, with many dolls on it.
Latona pulled open the drawer.
A stray stack of papers was lying inside.
She reads as little as possible without affecting the placement of the documents.
Some of the documents can be clearly discarded, which can be seen as the direction of Garrett's previous research:
"Space teleportation, shattered world, black domain, black domain cannon. ”
Most of the research in the document is based on two things called the Broken World and the Black Domain, which is described as chaotic but inextricably linked to reality, and the Black Domain, a special zone connecting the real universe to the Broken World, described as a place made up of "a large amount of black viscous matter".
According to the records, the research institute and affiliated laboratories led by Garrett have invested a lot of money and time in the study of the broken world.
The research that led to all this is to carry out controlled spatial teleportation through the shattered world at a very low cost, but in addition, there are many other researches, such as the Black Domain Cannon, a weapon that assimilates part of the space into a black domain and separates this area from the real world.
One of the most horrific is a plan called anti-projection.
As mentioned above, the Broken World Institute once sent people to explore this world, and when explorers traveled to the Broken World, they would pass through the Black Realm.
In the process of traversing the Black Domain, their physiological characteristics will change dramatically, and they will even become a new race that has nothing to do with humans, able to breathe, survive, and move freely in the broken world.
When the explorers return to reality through the black domain, the mutated physiological characteristics will be fully restored, but there will be no adverse effects on the physiological level, judging from the mental state of most people, they do not need the forced intervention of the psychological department.
However, some explorers have also reported that they have more power than others in the Shattered World, including but not limited to: creating high-temperature plasma, slowing down the motion of molecules, moving short distances in space, and creating high-energy beams from both eyes.
This part of the explorers has a strong desire to stay in the broken world, and they are unwilling to return to reality.
But none of them could resist Garrett's orders.
After the first exploration yielded positive results, Garrett also traveled to the Shattered World.
Not only was his physical structure completely altered there, but his mental state was also slightly abnormal, and he was one of those people who needed special intervention.
In the Broken World, Garrett is a tall, handsome dark-skinned man, and that black is so pure, not the black of a dark-skinned person, but the black of a shadow.
He stood there a dark god, and no one dared to defy his words.
And in reality, he is a gentle and wise leader, but in the broken world, he is like the chief of a savage tribe, no, it should be an ancient god worshipped by primitive tribes - with physical beauty, strength, wildness, power, and deterrence.
In that place, he was able to turn into a shadow at will and move through it at breakneck speed, and when he turned into a shadow, no physical attack could affect him, and not only that, but he also possessed far more movement than a human, and was able to easily twist the throat of the local threatening behemoth.
Although he was a determined and courageous man, Latona felt that desire for a broken world and power still affected him.
Because they quickly moved away from their original research direction, a large amount of money was transferred from the space teleportation project to a new project.
Anti-projection project.
They want the miracles bestowed upon them by the shattered world to reappear in the real universe, and in a controlled way.
Know that anyone can be magically changed after going to the Broken World.
If this power can be replicated in reality, they will be able to easily create an incredibly powerful army.
There's not a lot of information about anti-projection, and if Latona guessed correctly, that's the root cause of the accident – greed.
It is likely that this desire is not due to power, but to some special rule rooted in a broken world that may well have used this method to increase its inhabitants and keep those powerful outsiders behind.
Garrett paid the price for his recklessness, a price he couldn't afford - thousands of lives, from basic security personnel, to core researchers, and even his family, were erased from this world forever.
Latona turned her gaze to the rest of the material.
These papers are cleaner than the others, and they haven't been used for too long.
The above is not a strict experimental conclusion, but more like a conjecture written by Garrett:
"If I can find her shadow, can I see her again in a mirror. ”
"No, I need to make a replica first, enough to be real, so that the mirror will appear, and I can show where she is, but if she's already ......"
"Aaron's Institute, there's a bunch of shapeshifters there, maybe I can find a way there, a way to redeem everything......"
"Behind the veil, the Luminous Dawn fell, all things withered, the Broken Light, the Lord of Shadows, the Starlight floated. ”
Latona couldn't understand the meaning of the words, could it be that Garrett was already crazy when she wrote this?
And at the moment the security department of the Precursor Institute.
Sexton commanded the man in front of him:
"All armed, everyone on alert, we have to make sure the situation is brought under control, we don't know what we're going to be up against, shapeshifters, spies, or something more terrifying, but I can tell at a glance that there's something wrong with Latona.
"Garrett and I have told us that we have an internal problem, and it is big. ”
