The city of Selva has an ancient and winding canal, which runs through the center of the city and stretches for more than 100 kilometers from south to north.
The source of the canal in the north of the city is called Arc Light Wetland. This is a national tourist attraction in Selva City and is open to the public at different times.
There is a huge old castle in the Arc Light Lake Wetland. It is the private residence of the royal family of Selva City Jena and the 93rd prince Joan Jena.
This castle is like an illustration in a fairy tale book, with stunning scenery and a panoramic view of the magnificent mountains and rivers of the southern country.
Joan Jena is one of the princes who jointly released Kang Pingnan before. He is fifty-three years old this year. His resume in the second half of his life is very brilliant. He has made an indelible contribution to the rise of technology in Selva City.
contribute.
At least that's what the official propaganda says.
The city of Selva is not a country with a constitutional monarchy, but due to its primitiveness and backwardness, many ancient nobles still control clan rights.
After Selva City's technological take-off, this phenomenon did not slow down, because the nobles were rich and powerful and could penetrate power and influence political trends. On the contrary, it ushered in a more glorious rise again.
In Selva's administrative system, the Jena royal family does not hold power, but the power is at their disposal.
This phenomenon is similar to that of countries that were rich due to special resources more than a hundred years ago. On the surface, administrative parties are all-powerful, but in fact they have to ask those who wear headscarves and raise stupid birds for everything.
…
On the evening of the third day after Tong Zhan was taken away by the Blood Sinners, an aircraft arrived at Joan Castle and landed on the tarmac of more than a thousand square meters.
The aircraft cabin door opened, and a young and beautiful Chinese woman led a little girl down the ladder.
This woman is Kang Pingnan's wife, her name is Xu Xiuyan, and the little girl next to her is Kang Pingnan's eldest daughter, and she looks very cute.
After the mother and daughter got off the aircraft, a white housekeeper in a suit stepped over to greet them and said respectfully: "Ms. Xu, and the lovely little princess, welcome you here."
"Thank you." Xu Xiuyan nodded politely to the other party: "Please lead the way!"
"Would you like to attend the ladies' party first? Or meet our prince first?" the middle-aged man asked politely.
"Let's meet Mr. Qiao An first." Xu Xiuyan led her daughter and responded, "Please take care of her later."
"Of course, the children here like her very much." The middle-aged man smiled and led the way.
The group of people quickly entered the hall of the castle. The middle-aged man first ordered the servants to take the little girl away, and then personally led Xu Xiuyan upstairs.
All servants and service staff in this castle are all humans and never use any AI staff or electronic devices.
It can be seen from this that this extreme pretense is to return to the original nature. Members of the prince's family still feel that it may be more enjoyable to use real people.
Xu Xiuyan followed the white housekeeper to the study on the fourth floor and met the owner of the castle, Prince Qiao An.
"Xu, you are so beautiful." Qiao An, wearing a loose nightgown and with sparse hair on her head, stepped forward to greet her.
"Thank you for the compliment!" Xu Xiuyan tried not to look at the other person's sausage-like mouth, resisting the feeling of mysophobia, and let the other person kiss the back of her hand.
After exchanging a few words, the two of them sat by the window. Xu Xiuyan got straight to the point and took out a paper document from her bag, pushed it gently and said: "Mr. Qiao An, this is the data from all our experiments. Facts have proved that
, our idea is feasible.”
Across the table, Prince Qiao An looked very haggard. His cheeks were bloodless, his lips were chapped, and his eyes were red. He picked up the information with slightly trembling hands and began to read it carefully.
After a long time, Qiao An slowly put down the information and took a long breath: "Your experiment saved the aging Jena royal family. You are our nobles, and I am very grateful."
Xu Xiuyan smiled.
Qiao An picked up the red wine bottle on the table and poured a glass for Xu Xiuyan himself: "In this way, we need to increase the search for cultivation vessels. The greater the number of cultivation vessels, the higher the chance of successful matching."
"Yes, sir."
…
At around six o'clock in the evening, Zhang Yunxi finished today's recovery training in the Bayada Gymnasium, briefly said hello to the other team members, and walked to the rest area.
He has been in a bad mood these past few days, and he always thinks about what happened to Tong Zhan unconsciously, which makes him very angry.
"Bring me a glass of lemonade, thank you." Zhang Yunxi sat on the outside of the bar and shouted to the AI waiter.
"Okay, sir!" the AI waiter responded with a smile.
Zhang Yunxi loosened the collar of his sportswear, and just when he was about to call Lao Zhu through the communicator and ask him to come over and accompany him, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder.
"Whoa!"
Zhang Yunxi turned around and saw a tall man with a round haircut close to his scalp, looking at him expressionlessly.
The two parties had never met, but Zhang Yunxi recognized the other party. He was the 1v1c core member of the Xiaoli delegation, named Matsui Mu.
It is rumored that this guy is already at a high stage of the fusion stage, his combat effectiveness is very degraded, and he is also the seed player of their delegation this time.
Zhang Yunxi looked at the other party and was stunned for a moment, then asked in a strong tone: "Is something wrong?"
"Yes." Matsui's answer was also very concise: "Taka Sato is my brother. I want to ask you about him."
"I don't know." Zhang Yunxi didn't like them very much and turned his head away.
"Mr. Zhang, I think you also have a lot of doubts in your heart, right? It happens that I also know some information in this regard." Matsui sat on the chair next to him and said respectfully: "I sincerely want to communicate with you.
"
Zhang Yunxi looked at him and frowned.
"Taka Sato is a very reckless person. If he has done anything inappropriate before, I will ask him to apologize to you." Matsui said with a firm face and polite words: "If your hostility comes from our rivalry,
You can definitely fight me openly and openly on stage. I will not be as mean as Kim Taisung and play some despicable tricks."
Zhang Yunxi looked at him and responded in a hoarse voice: "I didn't see Sato Taka at the Sun Never Sets Machinery Factory, but...!"
"Can we go to the private room next to us and talk alone?" Matsui turned around and glanced around: "This place... is too eye-catching."
Zhang Yunxi thought for a moment: "Okay."
"Add a glass of lemonade and send us to room 091, thank you." Matsui stood up and said to the AI waiter.
…
Two minutes later.
Zhang Yunxi and Matsui Mu entered a private room with better privacy. They sat opposite each other and started talking softly.
"Didn't you see Taka Sato at the Ribuluo Machinery Factory?" Matsui asked.
"No!"
Zhang Yunxi slowly shook his head: "However, I heard some information about him in some people's conversations."
"What is it?" Matsui asked.
"Taka Sato seems to have been killed. He was melted alive." Zhang Yunxi said expressionlessly: "I don't know the specific reason. Do you know?"
When Matsui Mu heard this, he suddenly clenched his fists and asked with a slightly excited tone: "Are you sure? Mr. Zhang?"
"I'm not sure, but the police officer in Selva City said so." Zhang Yunxi looked at him: "Didn't your delegation receive a notice from them?"
"No!!" Matsui Mu said with a pale face: "Their judgment is that he is missing."
Zhang Yunxi was silent for a long time: "It's much darker here than we imagined! Tell me, you know some information, what is it?"
Matsueki's eyes were full of anger, and he responded in a low voice: "Do you know what the mutant characteristics of Sato Taka are?"
"I have read his information and he has strong recovery ability." Zhang Yunxi responded truthfully: "And he is also a wild mutant."
"Your recovery ability is already very strong. In just a few days, the wound left at the Ribuluo Machinery Factory has been completely closed." Matsui stared at Zhang Yunxi and said: "But Sato's recovery ability is at least yours.
More than twice as much!”
Zhang Yunxi's eyes were stunned.
"Someone here is conducting immortality experiments. Sato Taka was kidnapped, melted, and killed because of his unique mutant characteristics!!" Matsui is a person who keeps his promises. He truthfully revealed the information he knew: "You guys
The Sun Never Sets Machinery Factory I went to should be one of the test units!!"
"Eternal life??!" Zhang Yunxi looked at him in disbelief: "How is this possible? What nonsense?"
"Using the storage and downloading of memories in the eternal world, by finding cultivation tools in the real world, and finally integrating the memory with the body, the dead can be resurrected." Matsui paused: "Some old people,
I am not willing to give up everything in reality, and I don’t want to die, so I came up with this experiment.”
Zhang Yunxi was stunned when he heard this.
"Have you seen those children who were used as training tools in the Sun Never Set Machinery Factory?" Matsui looked at him and pointed to his brain: "Why children? Because the memory storage of adults is very
It’s complicated. We are all independent individuals with completely different life experiences. Current scientific methods can allow your life to be downloaded, but they cannot erase your life from your brain. The younger the child, the better.
, the shallower and simpler the memory, the easier it is for their bodies to be controlled by new memories, and also easier to be assimilated and suppressed. Especially those children with memory diseases are their first choice."
Zhang Yunxi initially thought what the other party said was too outrageous, but after hearing this, she felt that it was absolutely right!
Tong Zhan said that his sister was born with a brain defect and memory problems, and her disappearance was also related to the hospital treatment.
There were even six very young children in the Sun Bu Luo Machinery Factory! The details of these events are consistent with what Matsue Mu said.
"Gudong!"
Zhang Yunxi swallowed: "Then why did Taka Sato...?"
"Those poor children don't know how long they have been caught. They may be stored in a freezer, waiting for research, or they may be soaked in nutrients for those ruthless experimenters to observe the data. Their bodies are very weak, and their brains
You may not be able to bear the intrusion and stimulation of new memories." Matsui held the water glass and gritted his teeth and said, "So, using mutants to deactivate the cultivation device is a more appropriate choice."
"This...!" Zhang Yunxi was speechless.
"What you see is only a small part of the information." Matsui looked at him and added again: "A qualified cultivator is selected from at least a thousand, or even thousands of cultivators!! They are not
Experimentation is massacre."
When Zhang Yunxi heard this, she clenched her fists and said, "Why do you know so much in detail?"
"Unfortunately, there are also people in our nation who want to live forever." Song Jiangmu gasped and suddenly asked: "Did your friend Tong Zhan be secretly rescued by you?"
Zhang Yunxi looked confused: "What kind of rescue?"
"There is no need for you to lie to me. My best friend is dead, and my conflicts with them cannot be reconciled."
"What did I lie to you about?"
"Tong Zhan, didn't you disappear on the way to prison?" Matsui Mu frowned and looked at him and asked.
"What?!" Zhang Yunxi suddenly stood up when he heard this.
…
In a dark woodland, Tong Zhan followed the Sinner and was heading to the top of a hill.
After waiting for three days, the second fair transaction between Tong Zhan and the Sinner begins tonight.
