0072 Chapter 2: The Shadow of Death (Section 28)

[Additional update for 300 monthly tickets] (Fourth update)

Underground experimental area.

The little Loli didn't become violent after being head-shot. After the blown-up head was restored, she just sat down quietly hugging her knees, silently looking at Zhen Cheng on the other side of the glass with tears on her face, aggrieved.

Her cute little appearance makes people feel heartbroken, and there is no way to think that she is a monster that can bite off ordinary people's heads in one bite.

The security guard who fired the gun exited the room, followed closely by employees wearing janitor uniforms who entered the room to wipe the glass and clean up the blood stains.

It is worth noting that the other children in the room did not have any special reaction after seeing their companions being shot in the head. They were all calmer than Miss Zhen outside the wall. For them, being shot was probably the same as being shot by an ordinary child.

A slap in the face is common for a bad-tempered parent.

Zhen Cheng frowned slightly, sighed and asked Anbis: "So? You proved that you have created a group of invulnerable children. Well, their fighting power seems to be very exaggerated. When I walked in, I was still

I met someone who escaped. But you want to say that with their help, they can conquer the extraordinary beings of the three major families?"

Zhen Cheng still has a certain understanding of Uncle Anbis. At a family meeting in the early years, his father once evaluated this man as an "ambitious careerist", and Zhen Cheng deeply agreed with this.

There is no doubt that Anbis has strong personal abilities. Twenty years ago, before Zhen Cheng was born, this man had already emerged and was once considered a genius who could overpower the younger generation of the three major families.

This man has great talent, and now he has conquered almost all the backbones of the Styx project research team on his own. When he was young, this guy also created several business miracles without any help from his family.

The only shortcoming is... maybe it's because he became famous at a young age, or maybe it's the tradition of the Scarry family. This guy regards everyone as his competitor, but he doesn't know how to hide his ambition at all, and even wins the heart of Sima Zhao in the circle.

It's well known to everyone on the road.

In other words, when the old Scarry family members decided to hand over weapons research and other matters to this guy, they couldn't have been more cautious.

It's a pity that Anbisi may be too arrogant. Even after being reminded by his elders in the detective game, he still lacks understanding of Zhen Cheng. In his eyes, he only sees that the Zhen family will do whatever it takes to force Zhen Cheng to succeed, as long as she is tied to the battlefield.

The car can get the most powerful boost.

But I have never thought that a girl who would fall out with her family in order to refuse to inherit power, do you expect to use her status as bait to lure her into a gang to dominate the world?

"It turns out that Miss Thirteen has already seen their fighting power, so there is no need to demonstrate. But it is really heartbreaking that I am so stupid in your eyes. Relying on force to subdue the three major families? How is that possible?

You have also seen that these children have only gained the power of a certain extraordinary way, and are not weapons that completely obey instructions. Even if Thetis can mass-produce them efficiently, what is the point? It is nothing more than bringing them to the world.

Just some pointless confusion.

It is impossible to subdue the three major families, but the interests can make people convinced. Miss Thirteen, do you know the nature of the [Water of Eternal Life] that causes these little guys to mutate?"

Finally we come to the key point.

Zhen Cheng sighed inwardly, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "According to your external explanation, this seems to be a drug that can extend human life. But now it seems... isn't it a reagent for making biological weapons?

?”

She didn't tell all the details she knew, she just threw the question back in a perfunctory manner, waiting for Anbis, who was immersed in ambition, to give the answer.

In fact, long before meeting these white-haired children, and even at the beginning of all the troubles - before she was involved in the "Secret Space", Zhen Cheng had already read the leaked information about the Styx Project, and even knew about it

The weaknesses of those seemingly invulnerable experimental subjects.

It's just that the most critical piece of the puzzle is missing. How did these little tricks Thetis secretly do involve herself through the small octahedron fragments?

"The world is always unable to accept the simplest facts, even if they are the only truth." Anbis said and motioned for Zhen Cheng to continue to follow, and they reached the end of the glass corridor not far away.

Zhen Cheng began to look forward to it vaguely. She speculated that the purpose of her trip was probably ahead. Whether it was the shadow of death behind her, or the crux of the world's destruction and salvation; everything was confusing and conspiratorial, and it seemed that there was no way to escape it.

The material of the block is unknown, and it looks like an octahedron artifact broken into three pieces.

Detectives Zhi Shi and Sheng Bian who were following behind him were different from Zhen Cheng's eyes, one looked around with an absent-minded look on his face, and the other seemed to have still not recovered from Anbis' intimidation, his legs and stomach were shaking as he walked.

The door at the end of the corridor opens to both sides, and inside is a hall that looks like a stock exchange. Looking diagonally downward, you can see that the hall on the ground floor is crowded with researchers working on various instruments that look like science fiction movies.

Opposite the upper floor on the inside of the gate is a hollow circular corridor close to the wall. Some scientists in leadership attire leaned against the guardrail to observe the progress of the experiments below. There were also several security guards wearing chain watches around them.

Scanning the people in the corridor, Zhen Cheng always felt that something was strange, but at first glance she didn't understand what the problem was. What's more, her attention was quickly attracted to the real key.

Directly opposite the gate, there is a platform protruding into the hollow of the circular guardrail, which is connected to a large equipment that is seven or eight meters high and runs through the upper and lower floors.

The first thing Zhen Cheng noticed was that the instrument was placed in a transparent protective cover at the same level as her. The colorless transparent liquid was soaked in it. She had been looking for it for a long time, but it was the first time she saw the real thing with her own eyes.

Sheng Bian's guess was correct. Two ancient artifacts of unknown material were pieced together, clearly forming a regular octahedron with one piece missing.

One of them came from an unfortunate collector in Academy City, and the other was just borrowed from the Metropolitan Museum. The shapes of the two fragments were known, and the completed piece was exactly the same as the sketch manuscript speculated by Seibe.

"What is there in this world that no one can refuse? What is there that people have been longing for since ancient times, but that can only be reached by God?

Zhen Chengyong, [Eternal Life Water] has always been a medical research project dedicated to improving human lifespan as we have promoted it to the outside world.

It’s just that this project had been in progress for two hundred years before those old guys handed it over to me.”
