Chapter 308 Failed to punch in (seeking a monthly pass)
Xu Shuo followed the path pointed by Pian Ning, turned left and right, and walked to a wide hall that looked like a laboratory.
There are many people in white coats here, and it seems quite lively coming and going. On one side of the hall is a wall covered with mechanical screens, and on the other side are neatly arranged cylindrical culture tanks.
Some culture tanks are empty, while others are filled with green liquid and have people floating in them.
Those people had their eyes closed tightly, and their skin color was as pale as a corpse.
When he walked in, Xu Shuo thought for a moment that this was some evil human experiment base.
But he quickly realized that those people were not dead, and they were all voluntarily sealed in the culture tanks because their lifespan was running out.
Only members of the core group of the New Security Bureau can enter the triangular tower building. The core group is always fixed at 24 people and will be supplemented when there are fewer people.
Members of the previous generation, those who died unnaturally, could choose to slow down their own functions and put their bodies into a state of suspended animation when their life span was about to end.
Later, their mental consciousness can be transferred to electronic data and they can use their mechanical bodies to act again.
In fact, there are many humans who do this in society at this stage. The average life span of the human body is now two hundred years old, but if you use machinery to survive, you can reach up to three hundred years old!
But if the new humans do the same, their superpowers will disappear.
This is also the reason why few new humans choose to replace mechanical parts on themselves.
Because the spiritual power they are attached to exists in every living cell, mechanical skeletons can replace limbs and even internal organs, but they cannot perfectly replace human cells.
Moreover, after losing their human brains for a long time, their mental power will gradually dissipate, and this is the real death.
This is also the death process for most people today.
Even with the development of science and technology today, human beings still have not achieved immortality.
And new humans who suddenly awaken with incredible superpowers may be a new evolutionary direction for mankind.
This is why they call themselves "New Humanity".
In this laboratory, most of the researchers are new humans who have retired. After their lifespans came to an end, they simply switched to civilian jobs and studied their own bodies.
The evolutionary direction of the new human race was obtained through these precious materials.
When Xu Shuo came in, there was a robot at the door recording the data of his body's culture tank.
When I saw him coming in with a person in his arms, I was slightly confused and then suddenly realized.
"Omega just said there was an injured person, is he him?" the other party came over and asked.
"Well, there is no external injury, but his brain fell into a deep sleep, which seems to be caused by psychic ability." Xu Shuo said.
"The director did it?" the other party blurted out.
"..." Xu Shuo.
The scene was silent for two seconds.
The robot reacted, waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, because I really can't think of any other psychic who can do such a thing."
Someone came over and said, "Maybe it's not psychic ability, but other superpowers. After all, many people's abilities are quite strange. Put him on that table and let's see the situation first."
People here seem to have a kind of obsessive trust and admiration for the director of the New Security Bureau.
Xu Shuo remained calm and placed Yin Banqian on the experimental table.
Later, several researchers came over to check. He stood aside and watched for a while before turning around and leaving with an excuse.
…
Xu Shuo walked slowly on the silver-white passage, his psychic abilities spreading quietly, encompassing the entire Sky City, including the independent laboratory.
However, the entire New Security Bureau headquarters is a "real illusion" created by Pian Ning, and every corner is in her mind.
In other words, even if Xu Shuo went to the toilet, the other party would still know.
Xu Shuo: "..."
People here can actually live here with peace of mind.
He searched the Memory Palace carefully and found that everyone only knew that Omega controlled the Sky City, but they did not know what the opponent's abilities were.
After all, the public files only have a brief introduction to the ability, but no detailed description of the ability.
Of course, some people may have guessed it.
In short, any small tricks you do in the Sky City will be discovered!
Xu Shuo is walking in the passage now, and Pian Ning should know it. If Xu Shuo's figure suddenly disappears, Pian Ning will also know it.
Gu Yan
So he just let it go.
While Pian Ning was still arguing with the officials, Xu Shuo took a curious look here and there.
In the end, I naturally pushed open the independent laboratory.
In the main control room, Pian Ning, who was dealing with the officials impatiently, suddenly paused and screamed in his heart!
However, she still took a step slower. The young man pushed open the door very quickly. At this time, even if she moved the person away, it was already too late.
Pian Ning holds his forehead, and his head is covered with black lines.
Seeing her like this, the avatar on the opposite side suddenly softened her aggressive aura, and was a little worried that if she angered the New Security Bureau, it would be in vain.
…
The light in this laboratory is very dim.
It was empty except for a cylindrical culture tank in the middle, and a little girl with short black hair floating in the fluorescent green liquid.
When Xu Shuo pushed the door open and came in, the little girl had already opened her eyes, and turned around with those empty silver eyes, which were clearly out of focus, but you felt like she was looking at you.
You can even see your inside and outside clearly.
According to Pian Ning, the prophet Aurora saw through her false identity the moment he saw her.
There is no file record of Aurora's information at all. Like the director of the New Security Bureau, all her origins are unknown. It is only known that she has the ability of "precognition" and is a psychic.
So when Xu Shuo stood here, he was not sure whether his identity was exposed at this moment. He just seemed to be touched in his heart the moment he saw the other person.
But he didn't quite understand what this feeling was.
"What's wrong? Did you go the wrong way?"
Aurora spoke suddenly.
The little girl had no expression on her face, but her voice was gentle and kind, like a gentle breeze blowing through her mind.
Xu Shuo looked at her silently for a long time, without waiting for the character card to trigger.
Check-in failed!
He felt regretful in his heart but remained calm on the surface: "Sorry, I just wanted to take a stroll here and disturbed you."
"What are you sighing for?"
Aurora asked like this.
Xu Shuo paused: "I didn't sigh."
"So, what's troubling you?"
Aurora didn't dwell too much on the question, but she seemed to suddenly become interested and continued to ask, her voice still soft and soothing, with a hint of the crispness of a child's voice.
Hearing this, Xu Shuo said with some tentativeness: "Maybe the Birds of Paradise organization has caused a lot of trouble recently and even injured seniors, so I'm a little worried."
"A bird of paradise..."
The prophet's voice suddenly became somewhat unclear.
It was like a variety of light emotions intertwined together, suddenly giving this matter a confusing color.
Xu Shuo took advantage of the situation and asked, "Is there any problem?"
However, Aurora closed her eyes gently.
"I think it's time for you to get out of here."
Instead of changing the subject, she directly chased the person away.
The tone is soft but unequivocal.
Seeing this, Xu Shuo decisively stopped entangled. He bent slightly and nodded, then turned around and left the laboratory, closing the door.
There was silence in the laboratory.
After he left, Aurora opened her eyes again.
Those empty silver-white eyes seemed to reveal some doubts, which made the little girl's originally stiff expression look a little more confused.
——So, why did she catch people talking so much today?
