Chapter 589 The Purpose of the Mysterious Man (please vote for this huge chapter)
The roaring vehicles scraped through the sand and dust on the ground and flew away.
He Ao did not leave immediately. He leaned alone on the edge of the street outside the alley of the Second Laboratory, opened his bracelet, and flipped through the information on the Second Laboratory that Eve had compiled for him.
This information was his most important gain this time. Before Hu En went underground, he had already rummaged through the warehouse of the Second Laboratory, but there was nothing there.
The researcher said that most of all the genetic agents they produced were taken away every morning, and the rest were used by officers to subdue men and block He Ao's path.
However, He Ao's purpose of finding the second laboratory was not for these genetic medicines. He was just checking it out on the way.
He flipped through the information in his hands page by page, the most important ones were the reports and information about the mysterious person.
Vianna also has this information, but the main copying work was done by Eve. Vianna only has some simple records involving 'Jace' and the 'Mysterious Man', and there is no information about genetic potions. These records are
She cares.
At this moment, she was also watching the information, and from time to time she would complain to He Ao through her earphones.
He Ao listened to her complaints and read most of the information carefully.
The second laboratory established by the mysterious man was not re-established after falling out with Jace. In fact, this laboratory was established almost at the same time as the first laboratory where Jace was.
Whenever Jace's research has a phased result, the second laboratory will try to reproduce the phased result, and the progress of the entire laboratory is basically synchronized with the progress of Jace's experiment.
However, the second laboratory did not have the experimental equipment that Jace had hand-saved before.
The inspiration for these experimental equipment basically comes from Jace's abnormal mental state, which has a strong acceleration effect on certain joint steps when he is bursting with inspiration.
Because it is too simple, many core structures inside are connected by some mysterious and mysterious key hubs.
In Vianna's words, "Uncle Jess, these things you made are like putting the wings of a bird on the buttocks and the feet on the wings, but it actually rotates its feet."
, it flew like a helicopter, and it flew very fast.”
Vianna is also knowledgeable about mechanics. She once made a foldable exoskeleton armor by hand.
Vianna couldn't understand the machine Jace made, but she was greatly shocked.
In fact, Jess himself cannot reproduce these machines, so the second laboratory cannot mass-produce these machines.
During the time when Jace was promoting experimental progress, most of the projects in the Second Laboratory were studying how to bypass the machines manufactured by Jace and reproduce Jace's results with normal instruments.
They have made some progress, but not much. The processes they develop are usually ten times more complex than those using machines, and the output is only a fraction or even a tenth of Jace's.
So after the mysterious man and Jace had a falling out, and the mysterious man started to hunt Jace, they emptied out the first laboratory, moved all the machines made by Jace here, and started the large-scale production of genetic medicines.
Of course, although the original production process of the Second Laboratory is not as fast as Jess's process.
But after long-term exploration, they still have a large amount of 'raw materials' in reserve, so when the equipment made by Jace is brought to the second laboratory, they can quickly start producing genetic medicines on a large scale.
And this is also the reason why the researchers in the second laboratory admire 'Jess' so much. What they worked so hard to make, Jace can do it easily. After seeing the production efficiency of Jace's machine,
, their shock was even more indescribable.
Invisibly, awe and even worship of Jace arose.
However, in fact, the most important role of the Second Laboratory is not to manufacture genetic medicines. Although genetic medicines play an important part in the workflow of the Second Laboratory, judging from the data recorded in the laboratory, the mysterious man is more concerned about
something is another,
Development of Class B genetic drugs.
The Second Laboratory modified some of Jace's formulas and added artificial "prices" to create a genetic potion that can obtain higher extraordinary power.
However, the preparation of these genetic medicines requires the blood of the owner of the corresponding talent sequence. The extraordinary beings that the mysterious man can control are only at C level.
A lot of blood is needed to make genetic medicines, and there is a high failure rate. None of the D-class people who provided blood for genetic medicines survived, and almost all of them died after their blood was drained.
Even a C-level person with extremely strong body recovery ability cannot withstand such bloodletting.
The original holders of several C-level talent sequences that were originally controlled by the mysterious man to provide blood, including 'Warrior', 'Fire Controller', and 'Glory Knight', all fell into a trap because they drained their blood.
Near death.
The C-class's own recovery ability cannot support this level of bloodletting, and their strong vitality keeps them alive without blood.
The information of the Second Laboratory copied by Eve also recorded the subsequent endings of these C-levels. After draining their blood, they were killed by the mysterious man, and the talent sequence in their bodies was extracted again and made into secrets.
medicine.
These materials did not mention the subsequent arrangements for these secret medicines, but based on Jace's many years of experience with the mysterious man and his previous encounters, He Ao probably figured out the subsequent arrangements for the mysterious man.
Find those D-level pre-talent sequences corresponding to these C-level talent sequence secret medicines, let them be promoted, and then become new 'blood packs'.
People are mortal, but the talent sequence will always exist.
In fact, the mysterious man has already arranged for the 'C-level' who will become the 'blood pack' next, which is the three-person team that He Ao met in the emergency corridor.
The mysterious man promised them that after killing 'Jace', he would give them the secret medicine of the subsequent talent sequence.
Of course, they who came up to surround He Ao with great joy did not realize what this meant.
If the C-level talent sequence is well controlled, promotion will be relatively easy.
There is a high probability that they will not fall into madness when they are promoted, so this method of 'recycling and reusing' can be effective, and the mysterious person can also better control the C-level and make them his 'blood pack'.
But it's different when you reach B level.
Putting aside the issue of whether B-class can be controlled and 'recycled', according to the combat effectiveness of B-class, not to mention the mysterious man, even the Huiermei Medical Foundation is not sure that a B-class can risk death.
, became the 'blood bag' of this experiment.
Therefore, B-level genetic medicine can no longer use the blood of B-level extraordinary people, and must be replaced by other things.
The entire research on Class B genetic medicines is to study things that can replace Class B blood.
A very complete logic. This logic was not deduced by He Ao, but was explained in a "Necessary Report on the Research of Class B Genetic Agents".
This report is obviously an internal report, a report handed over to the board of directors of a certain consortium by a mysterious person.
The report did not mention the name of this consortium, but it is most likely the Huilmei Medical Consortium.
Judging from the content of this report, the main purpose of this report is for the mysterious man to try to persuade the board of directors of the Wilmed Medical Foundation to grant him funding to research Class B genetic medicines.
In addition to the fact that B-level blood is difficult to obtain and cannot be 'recycled and reused', the mysterious man also spent a lot of space describing the advantages of B-level genetic medicine.
This report was signed last year. At that time, Jace had not yet completed his research on genetic medicine, but the mysterious man was already seeking new funding.
And this report was finally successful. Judging from the data of the Second Laboratory, the Second Laboratory received a large amount of research funding shortly after that.
The mysterious man convinced the board of directors of Huilmei Medical Group.
And his persuasive logic was also very reasonable. The research on Class B genetic medicines was the inevitable choice of Huiermei Medical Foundation. In the end, the Second Laboratory seemed to have made great progress in the research of Class B genetic medicines.
This all seems reasonable.
Just like the three-person team may have obtained the talent sequence secret medicine they wanted after besieging He Ao, and then successfully promoted. Before they were finally controlled by the mysterious man and became a blood bag, they may all think that the development of the matter is reasonable.
, beneficial to them.
The mysterious man is a person who is very good at playing with people's hearts.
Jess understands this very well.
He will put his own demands behind other people's goals and make others "willingly" work for him.
But his mentality is not perfect.
In researching B-level genetic medicines, he showed far more enthusiasm than mass-producing genetic medicines.
From the information of the second laboratory, it can be clearly seen that the Huiermei Medical Consortium is more eager to see the mass production of D- and C-level genetic medicines. They hope to announce the results as soon as possible and complete the order.
to recover the funds invested in the early stage.
B-level genetic medicine is good, but that is something in the future, and making money in the present is more important.
At the beginning, in the underground parking lot of the Huiermei Medical Building, the Huiermei Medical Foundation asked people with genetic medicines to attack Hexi in order to conduct practical verification of the genetic medicines, although this verification was not successful in the end.
Compared with the urgency of the Huiermei Medical Foundation, the mysterious man has been forcing the Second Laboratory to carry out research on B-level genetic medicines despite the pressure of the Huiermei Medical Foundation.
Obviously, B-level genetic medicine is very important to him, and judging from Jace's experience, the mysterious man is not a person who pursues the truth of scientific research. He must be so keen on pursuing B-level genetic medicine for other reasons.
He Ao reached out and touched the wooden box behind his back.
The energy sealed in this wooden box is also a B-level item in a sense. Although it is an unformed B-level item, it will burst out instantly once the box is opened.
But even so, the mysterious man still created this energy.
If he could gain complete knowledge of the ritual circle created by Jace's father, he might be able to solidify the energy into something Class B.
From this perspective, the mysterious man invested in Jace's father and helped Jace's father develop the ritual circle, perhaps in order to create a special B-level item.
But in the end, Jace's father had serious differences with him, which ultimately prevented him from obtaining the complete ritual circle.
But judging from this incident and the mysterious man's enthusiasm for B-level genetic medicine, the ultimate purpose of the mysterious man's research on genetic medicine may be to create this B-level genetic medicine.
He went to Jace's father, Jace, and the Huiermei Medical Foundation, all in order to use the occult knowledge in that ritual to create a special B-level 'item'.
Moreover, the current B-gene drug research in the Second Laboratory is not starting from scratch.
After the previous B-class genetic medicine project was established, although there was funding from the Huiermei Medical Foundation, the progress has been slow, with almost no progress, and the mysterious person does not care much.
After Jace had obtained the complete genetic potion, the mysterious man directly took out a special purple liquid and asked the researchers of the second laboratory to use it to replace the blood of extraordinary people to conduct research on Class B genetic potions.
And it is mandated that only this liquid can be used for research.
This shows that the purpose of the mysterious man is not simply to create B-level genetic medicine, but to create a specific B-level genetic medicine that uses that 'purple liquid' instead of the blood of extraordinary beings.
When creating the energy in the wooden box, the mysterious man synchronized the minds of the patients who were used as 'sacrifice', making them accept the control of the illusory and hidden existence.
Comparing the two aspects, the purple liquid in these data may also come from that illusory and hidden existence.
Unfortunately, although He Ao had paid attention to this item for manufacturing B-level genetic medicine early on, when reconnecting the network cable, Eve also retrieved the information about these purple liquids and reminded him to look for it.
But he searched all the floors of the second laboratory using super memory, but could not find any purple liquid left over from the experiment.
He Ao's ability to find things is still relatively strong, and there is a high probability that the purple liquid no longer exists in the second laboratory.
Otherwise, he can use super memory to see if there are any tentacles extended by the hidden existence in this purple liquid.
He Ao thought for a while and asked Eve to filter out detailed information about these purple liquids.
Judging from the information, the purple liquid provided by those mysterious people was always just enough, and yesterday was the last day to provide purple liquid. Today, the second laboratory did not receive new purple liquid.
Seeing this, He Ao frowned slightly, wondering why there was no more today.
"Eve, retrieve all research information on Class B genetic medicines."
"We are retrieving it for you. Most of this type of data has been destroyed. We are showing you some data recovered from the storage device. The forcibly recovered data may be partially garbled. We are processing valid information for you."
Eve's voice rang in Heao's ears.
Pages of data were displayed before He Ao's eyes.
"An urgent news break. We just received a report from an anonymous whistleblower,"
The variety show playing in the store next to He Ao suddenly paused and turned into another voice. He Ao turned around and saw the TV screen inside through the open door of the store.
A young-looking host was standing in the center of the screen, reporting quickly with some trembling, "The whistleblower said that he has clear evidence to prove that the current Senator Nied took bribes, abused his power, and violated underage girls during his tenure.
and molestation of boys.”
He Ao turned his head and looked around. At this moment, the large screens around him that had just been playing Ned's campaign advertisement suddenly switched to a news broadcast similar to the news in the store.
These news are all reporting one thing, and that is the scandal of the current Senator Wetland and the person with the highest support rate in the next Senator Wetland’s election, ‘Senator Ned’.
These big screens are not free news broadcasts, but "advertising spaces" that need to be purchased for a fee.
Qunxing Pharmaceutical is working hard.
······
He Ao lowered his head and looked at the content on the bracelet.
Most of the core research data on the B-level genetic medicine was destroyed. Judging from Eve's analysis, it should have been destroyed last night, and Eve could only recover a very small part of the data.
Most of these materials are data of unknown meaning, and only some of them record the research progress of B-level genetic medicines, as well as some manuscripts of researchers.
Among these electronic manuscripts, there is a fragmentary record that reads,
[······We are almost successful······There is still a little bit, still a little bit short······Great···We will become one with you······]
The last revision of the manuscript was at 20 o'clock last night.
"Eve, can you find out who the researcher is who left this manuscript?"
He Ao asked in a low voice.
He remembered that when he asked other researchers in the second laboratory, they all said that they were not involved in the core research of B-level genetic agents. The core research was in the control room on the fourth floor, and they did not know.
Is anyone doing some research in there?
But the control room was the first place He Ao went to, and there was no one there.
"Retrieving editor information,"
Eve's voice rang in He Ao's ears, "The search is completed. The researcher is researcher No. 07. His information was removed from the laboratory information at 23:00 last night. The reason for the removal is 'unknown'."
Hearing this, He Ao was silent for a moment, and then asked in a low voice, "How many researchers' information was removed last night?"
"There are 19 researchers in total, including researchers numbered 03 to 04, 06 to 08, 10 to 13, 15 to 18, 20 to 24, and 26. Reason for removal: unknown,"
Eve quickly replied, "There are five other researchers on 05, 09, 14, 19, and 25 who were removed at different times at least a month ago. Reason for removal: death."
The mysterious man's number is 01, Jess's number is 02, and the numbers of other people in the First Laboratory all start from 27. Jess was curious before where the people from 03 to 26 went.
Now it seems that these people are the core of the second laboratory.
The first five people whose data was removed probably suffered some kind of accident during the experiment and ultimately lost their lives.
As for the 19 people who survived and had their data removed for "unknown" reasons, their condition may not be any better than death.
Judging from these manuscripts, their mental state was already very worrying.
Judging from the manuscript and the B-level genetic medicine used by men in officer uniforms, the research on B-level genetic medicine should be close to success.
But on the eve of success, the mysterious man seemed to have taken away all the main researchers and stopped the second laboratory's research on Class B genetic agents. This is not a reasonable act in itself.
Theoretically, only the equipment in the laboratory can produce the raw materials for making genetic medicines.
Unless, in order to achieve the final step of B-level genetic medicine, there is no need for ‘raw materials’ in the traditional sense.
He Ao thought of those people locked up in mental hospitals who had lost their will.
The mysterious man is a very particular person. If he marked death, then the person should really be dead. If he marked 'unknown', then it should be these researchers and they don't need to die.
Judging from the decisiveness of the mysterious man in killing Jace and Jace's father, he will definitely not leave behind these people who know his core secrets, even if these people are already half crazy.
Dealing with a group of living people is definitely more troublesome than dealing with dead people, unless there is a reason why these people cannot die temporarily.
While thinking, He Ao raised his head and looked forward.
Several vehicles with FBI logos slowly drove into the alley ahead.
He Ao pressed the earphone and said, "Vianna, can you do me a favor?"
"Um?"
Vianna's confused voice came.
"Help me investigate the 'Phoenix' system."
He Ao said slowly.
He crossed the street, walked to Ryan's parked car, opened the door and got in.
"Okay, let me take a look."
There was a response from Vianna.
Ryan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, glanced at He Ao through the rearview mirror and said, "Mr. Jess, shall we go back?"
"No,"
He Ao turned off the bracelet, glanced at the advertising screens showing the Ned scandal, and said softly,
