"Pandora Project?" Arthur looked at the frozen sign and muttered in confusion.
At this time, Torvill pulled the corner of Arthur's clothes.
"Don't look at meow..." The leopard boy suppressed his fear and begged in a low voice, "Don't look at meow."
"Is this Pandora Project the fox people's plan to create super soldiers?" Arthur asked.
"No...it's worse than that," Torvill said.
"This is...the fate of those who cannot become warriors or keys...meow. Utilization of waste, meow." Torvir said tremblingly.
At this time, Arthur's hand accidentally touched the computer board nearby. The screen on the computer board began to light up and broadcast a record.
"On x, x, Project Pandora, Experiment Zero." A researcher's voice said, holding a syringe in his hand with some kind of black substance inside.
The orc boy on the side looked horrified, but he was tied tightly to the operating table and his limbs had been cut off, so he was unable to struggle.
A black substance was injected into the boy's body.
After a while, the orc boy began to be swallowed up by black things, and his body changed violently.
"Rejection reaction occurred! Terminate, terminate the experiment!" Before the fox researcher could finish speaking, his head had been pierced by the tentacles shot out from the monster.
The monster began to kill the researchers in the laboratory, and was finally driven to the point where the guards shot it into a hornet's nest and collapsed to the ground.
The black stuff evaporated from the monster's body, and the monster returned to its original shape and died as a young man.
Arthur was dumbfounded, while the leopard-man boy Toviel on the side looked like a child who had done something wrong and was waiting for the adults to blame him, lowering his head and trembling.
"That was my friend, Meow." Torvill whispered.
"I'm sorry." Arthur said, "Did they inject something into people to turn them into monsters? What's the point of making people who can't become warriors become such uncontrollable monsters?"
"They stopped later. Instead of continuing this kind of wasteful research, it would be better to sell all the defective products for money." Torvill whispered, his voice blurred by trembling.
"Really?" Arthur continued to play dumb, "That's good, at least Tovir doesn't have to become such a monster. Come on, there's nothing good about this kind of thing."
"Hmm..." Tovel walked forward a little distractedly.
Grand Duke Hall, who was pretending to be rummaging around, glanced secretly at Arthur.
At six o'clock in the morning, everyone gathered.
"No, there are a lot of large and small things that look similar, but the key key fragments can't be found!" Tristan said.
"Arthur, what should we do? We are okay, but you humans will freeze to death if you continue like this." Bedivere said, he had already noticed Ivan's lips turning blue from the cold.
"...Evan, didn't you see anything?" Arthur asked.
"No, no..." Ivan trembled and replied, "There are a lot of similar shapes, but there is no magic, magic reaction. I, I was thinking, since it is so important
There should be no reason to put things aside like this------"
"There is no other way," Arthur sighed, "Although using magic in the enemy's barrier may trigger the alarm... Lianyin, can I please help you?"
"The magic of detecting curse patterns requires first looking for magic curse patterns with similar wavelengths as samples." Lianyin said mechanically.
"That's not a problem," Bedivere lifted up his shirt and said, "Come on, I have the same magic spell pattern in my heart. You can follow this to find it------"
Before she finished speaking, Lianyin suddenly pressed her face against Bedivere's chest.
"Wow, ah, ah, what are you doing?!" Bedivere blushed and shouted. The scent of the girl made his heart beat faster and he almost became excited.
"Idiot, keep your voice down!" Arthur punched Bedi.
Tristan snickered from the sidelines.
"...The wavelength capture is completed and the magic resonance magic is started." Lianyin said.
"Ivan, be more vigilant! The enemy may have begun to notice!" Arthur said vigilantly.
Using magic is indeed very efficient. In less than a minute, Lianyin found the fragments of the key.
No wonder I can't always find it.
In a huge ice coffin, the body of a bear man boy faintly glowed with the light of six fragments.
When Arthur took a closer look at the bear-man, he realized that he was much thinner and shorter than the average bear-man. The key fragments put a heavy burden on the body of the creature, so much so that the vitality of the young bear-man was almost squeezed out by the fragments.
Done.
"So, the foxes have completed the research on [Master Key], and in order to prevent [Master Key] from dying, they have frozen him completely?" Arthur said.
The painful expression on the face of the bear-man boy who was forever frozen seemed to be crying out for the injustice of his fate. It was a complicated expression composed of incomparable hatred for the researcher and helplessness for his own fate.
.
"I'm sorry. Does it hurt? This will relieve you." Arthur suppressed his anger and quietly drew out the Sword of the King.
"Wait, wait, wait! What do you want to do?!" Bedivere rushed over to stop him.
"Let this child be freed. Destroy the [Master Key] that the foxes have worked so hard to research, and completely ruin their plan. Do you need more reasons?" Arthur said.
"No! If you kill him here, the flying fragments will be attached to us!" Tristan said quickly, "Even if you think there is no problem, I don't want to kill him on my own."
There is such a disgusting key fragment in my heart! Do you want me to become a dwarf like Bedi who will never grow taller?!"
(Who is the dwarf who will never grow taller?!)
Arthur was stunned for a moment. He completely suppressed his anger and retracted his sword.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect so much when I was angry." Arthur said, "What should we do now? It's impossible to move such a big ice coffin."
"The only way is to kill him." Grand Duke Hall suddenly said.
Everyone looked at Hall and fell silent for a while. No one thought that the kind-hearted Grand Duke Hall would suddenly say such harsh words.
"Uh, **? Grand Duke, are you talking about '**'?" Arthur said in confusion.
"Think about it, since they can freeze the heart dug out of the human body and keep the key, that is to say, it is possible to kill the child now and just take away the key part." The Grand Duke said.
"No! What to do with this child! Isn't he very pitiful?!" Bedivere said quickly.
"It's pitiful, but look, he's actually dead a long time ago." Hall said, "Doing this now will free him from having to suffer in this eternal ice."
"...There's no time, let's do it!" Arthur drew out his sword, "Bedi, Tristan, you guys go find various containers that can maintain the temperature. Lianyin, use the detection magic just now,
Clearly show the location of the key fragment...I'll do it."
After the container was ready, Lianyin once again used magic to show the location of the fragments. The fragments turned out to be in various internal organs of the bear boy. Arthur didn't think much, and drew a few swords across, accurately removing the places where the fragments were.
The ground was cut into bricks of ice.
"Arthur, there is a large group of guards approaching!" Ivan said.
"Hurry up!" Arthur urged, watching Bedivere and the others loading the ice bricks into the container.
Grand Duke Hall suddenly struck out with his sword and chopped off the head of the bear boy.
"Grand Duke, is it necessary?" Arthur said.
"We have to get rid of all the negative factors, don't we?" Hall picked up the bear man's head (ice cube) and stuffed it into another insulated container, "I also took this to study.
."
Arthur didn't say anything more, and motioned for everyone to run into the vent.
A dozen tiger guards went through complicated procedures and finally opened the freezer door.
But what they saw was an empty and silent freezer.
It seemed like nothing had happened. They couldn't find any problems no matter how they checked. Even the corpse of the Ursine that was supposed to have been killed was recreated into a perfect replica by Tristan's ice modeling technique.
You can't see the problem without careful observation.
While the guards were still wondering, Arthur and his group had already escaped through the vent to the upper floors of the research institute.
"Wow, there are so many guards, can we escape?" Tristan looked outside the vent and said.
"It seems that it is great to drink the purifying potion." Arthur said, "But don't relax. Remember to prepare the antidote in advance to prevent your body from overheating during the battle."
"Okay, this wave of guards has passed, let's go quickly!" Ivan said.
Ten minutes later, everyone returned to the utility room where they first invaded the institute.
"Great, the tunnel has not been discovered and can still be used." Tristan untied the ice blocks that concealed the tunnel and motioned for everyone to go in. After the group of people ran in, Tristan sealed the entrance of the tunnel with ice blocks.
up and simulate the material on the other side of the wall. Everything looks seamless.
"It's basically safe here." Arthur said.
"Huh, huh." Bedivere panted, his face flushed with heat, as if he was drunk. He had been "excited" for a while, and his body was much hotter than those of his companions.
"Are you okay? Do you want to drink the antidote to dissipate the heat?" Arthur asked. He knew that Bedi desperately needed to dissipate the heat, otherwise something would happen.
"No, it's not absolutely safe now. Drinking the antidote will reveal our location too easily. I, I'm fine, I just ran a little fast," Bediwell said.
"...Okay." Arthur knew it was useless to persuade Bedivere now, and he sighed.
Everyone then moved forward quietly at a neither fast nor slow pace, hoping that the final journey would be smooth and hassle-free.
