90 Alpha

◎Why didn't she collapse?◎

Chu Qing saw rows of data in front of her eyes.

Someone called him, but he ignored them. He had been standing in this column for a long time.

If he understood correctly, the experimental waste that was scrapped to Area 103 nineteen years ago was the Alpha series experiment.

Yongsheng Pharmaceutical's cutting-edge technology is now biomechanics, which is the fusion of biology and system machinery.

This technology was shared with the Federation for free very early on, which is why so many artificial humans were born later. After the massive radiation, the population plummeted, and the technology of Eternal Life Pharmaceuticals filled a large number of labor gaps in the Federation.

However, what was shared with the Federation was early mature technology, that is, the results of the first phase of research.

Most of the Federation's artificial humans are not much different from ordinary people. At most, their genes are changed to make them more loyal and not betray humans.

At best, it is just a consumable.

At that time, Chu Qing was more interested in the integration of pollutants and mechanical systems. Some pollutants can naturally pollute machines and systems, and this technology is theoretically feasible.

They also created some artificial mutants and achieved some experimental results. This is the second phase of the experiment.

Chu Qing is also doing this now.

But their more transcendental philosophy is to integrate mechanical systems and super-S-level pollutants.

As far as Chu Qing knows, Yongsheng Pharmaceutical has three super S-level pollutants, and the one Chu Qing has is only S-level.

It is very difficult to obtain super S-level pollutants. Human cities will not produce pollutants of this level. They spend a lot of manpower and material resources, and lose many lives to successfully capture them outside the wall.

They can't even use it properly after capturing it, and that is the power that makes them afraid, a fear that should not be seen by mortals.

Most of the time they are buried deep underground, and just looking at them will make people tremble, let alone conducting experiments on them.

The most important thing in the Alpha series of experiments is the super-S-level pollutants and systems.

The system is not unfamiliar to many people.

Home computers and civilian secondary computers all undergo system upgrades to give your technology more functionality. Every year, the federal payment system is updated to meet user needs.

But humans don't need systems, only machines and computers do.

How complicated is this concept? Pollutants represent chaos and disorder, while systems represent precision and order.

When people use the system, they can regulate pollutants to the greatest extent possible, and they can even redevelop the system in turn.

If successful, the system could be installed in future humans as naturally as installing a chip.

Successful installation can use the power of super S-level pollutants. They will have the ability to deprive and devour other pollution sources, and they can truly purify the world.

Even if they expand their army, as long as they are given enough people to install it, it will not be a fantasy for humans to retake the polluted land.

This is a very beautiful experimental concept, it is like a savior.

Yongsheng Pharmaceutical's experiments must have progressed smoothly back then, otherwise they wouldn't have come to their school to hold a briefing. Their slogan back then was: The hope for the future of mankind.

Savior, the hope for the future of mankind, what beautiful words.

Chu Qing, who was still studying, even went crazy for this idea. When he was a student, he dreamed of entering the Alpha Laboratory.

Chu Qing only knew the experimental concept. He did not participate in the experiment that year. The experiment had been shut down after he joined Yongsheng Pharmaceutical.

The Alpha series experiments were declared a failure.

It is normal for experiments to fail. They only put forward ideas, but it may take several generations of efforts to put the ideas into practice.

Judging from Chu Qing's current research results alone, any part cut from S-level pollutants shows extremely strong aggressiveness, and it is difficult to graft them with other things.

The swallowed experimental mice, the swallowed experimental subjects, and the swallowed high-level pollutants.

There is only one way out: to be swallowed.

Chu Qing's current possessions are all like this, not to mention the Super S-level ones.

Even if they succeed by chance and overcome this difficulty, bigger problems still await the researchers.

The experimental subject was given excessively powerful energy, but it was impossible to artificially create a strong consciousness to match it.

In other words, the researchers created a powerful shell, but not a powerful soul.

An artificial being needs a body and a soul to function.

The soul of a natural person is given by nature, while the soul of an artificial person is given by researchers.

They should have tried to input memories directly, but artificially input memories are bound to have flaws because the subjects are very smart and they can easily find loopholes.

Once the experimental subject discovers that he is fake during this process, he will collapse.

Mental breakdown is a hurdle that cannot be avoided.

Just like the many experimental subjects under Chu Qing, they would choose to commit suicide the moment they realized that they were created.

Their consciousness will collapse, their sanity will break down, and they will become brain dead directly.

They would rather die than live in this filthy world and be exploited by others, because they are too smart and can understand in an instant what they will face if they survive.

Death is actually the best ending.

The system itself is a combination of pollutants and technology. If people cannot control it, they will be swallowed up by the system.

The consequences of being swallowed by pollutants are very terrible. They once had a serious experimental accident and the entire base was destroyed.

Failure of the experiment was almost an inevitable outcome. There were too many difficult problems to overcome. Yongsheng Pharmaceutical invested the most advanced technology and a lot of money but still failed.

Chu Qing also figured out the matter and stopped dwelling on it, and changed the direction of his research.

But now, Zhu Ning's appearance means that the experiment has been successful.

She was once transported to the 103rd District garbage dump, but she survived. Why? How did she do it?

Why didn't she break down?

…

The safe house in the basement of the Noble Queen Store.

Lin Xiaofeng stood stiffly in place.

She had never been so scared before, and it was a fear without any reason. She didn't encounter any bad people or monsters.

She felt like she was going crazy with fear just by staring at a door.

Lin Xiaofeng wanted to leave, but she couldn't. She really couldn't. A feeling of powerlessness enveloped her, so much so that she couldn't even cry.

She wanted to open her mouth and call out Zhu Ning's name, but her lips kept trembling and she couldn't make a sound.

Zhu Ning's bedroom door was tightly closed, with black slime crawling through the cracks, and an atmosphere of despair and death emanated from inside.

The door was like an eye, staring at Lin Xiaofeng.

Bang--

The door was suddenly opened, and then Lin Xiaofeng's body felt lighter and he fell into a warm embrace.

Song Zhizhang pushed open the door.

Fortunately, Lin Xiaofeng was wearing plush slippers when she got out of bed, and the plush slippers did not disappear with her. Song Zhizhang could see where she was at a glance. The two of them got along very well these days.

Song Zhizhang was able to accurately pick up Lin Xiaofeng, who was in a transparent form. The little girl was so stiff that she couldn't recover until now.

Song Zhizhang could feel the pressure and fear, and didn't even dare to look at Zhu Ning's door.

Endless pressure suddenly came down, not to mention Lin Xiaofeng, even Song Zhizhang, who was ready to come in, was intimidated by this pressure and was a little slow in his movements.

His back felt like countless needles were pricking him at the same time, and he didn't even look at the door, he just walked in.

Is this Zhu Ning's ability?

What is she doing?

Song Zhizhang had seen a lot of things in the world. He had seen people suddenly collapse and become a source of pollution, and he had also seen people transformed, but none of them was as spectacular as Zhu Ning's.

She didn't seem to be trying to transform, but rather to summon some evil god.

Song Zhizhang gritted his teeth, and a sweet and fishy taste filled his mouth, which made him feel a little clearer.

He finally remembered his purpose, took a difficult step, and walked out holding Lin Xiaofeng.

He had never felt this road so long. It was only a few steps, but it felt like it would take a lifetime to complete. If Zhu Ning lost control, Lin Xiaofeng and Song Zhizhang would both die here.

Snap——

The moment they walked out, a metal door suddenly fell down, isolating the inside from the outside with a bang.

The safe house's defense mechanism is activated, and it becomes a fully enclosed space.

The metal door fell, but it couldn't stop the trembling fear. Even after they came out, they couldn't help shaking.

Song Zhizhang held Lin Xiaofeng in his arms and slowly sat down against the metal door, unable to imagine what Zhu Ning was doing.

…

Zhu Ning was trapped in a safe house.

She looked at her hands.

A new pair of eyes is looking at the world, just like a newborn baby coming into the world and touching a human hand for the first time.

She recalled some memories, which might be the original owner's memories or her memories.

Someone once grabbed her and they pulled themselves up from the garbage.

They were two rough hands, with scars and calluses on the palms, and a stench of garbage.

Her memory contains the voices shouting, "She's alive!"

The shouts spread from one end to the other, and someone from the defective products in the garbage mountain that day was responding to the shouts.

"Hey—what's alive?"

Liu Sheng shouted excitedly: "She's alive!"

He only said these three words from beginning to end, no beginning or end, just three words: she is alive.

This kind of story often happens outside the delivery room: when a normal newborn is born, her relatives will surround her.

She will have the warmest blessings in the world, she is so new and the love of the whole family is poured into her.

Even the most heinous person would have a second of compassion for a newborn baby.

This is a garbage dump. Zhu Ning is just a failed experiment. She should lie in the garbage dump and rot.

But at this time, the shouts of countless defective products seemed to be welcoming Zhu Ning's arrival.

Liu Sheng and Lao Yang hugged her tightly, and she could feel two warm hearts.

She never thought that her appearance would become the hope of some people.

She never thought that she could bring strength to others just by doing nothing.

She never thought that these people didn't care whether Zhu Ning was powerful or not, they just wanted to survive.

As long as she lives.

They saved her.

Researchers in the laboratory will not understand this. In their eyes, there are only data and parameters, and human emotions cannot be visualized at all.

Cold data erases the possibility of human existence.

They would not understand why Su Qingqing was created as a household android but was able to break through the constraints of genes.

They will not understand why some office workers are crushed and turned into pollutants just because they miss the last bus.

They would not understand why Lin Xiaofeng was able to reverse the pollution and become a transparent man.

They won't understand why their experimental subjects are saved by defective products.

They are too arrogant and think they are God and can decide everyone's fate.

The moment the experimental subjects are created, they will inevitably deviate from the creator's expectations because they are alive.

At that moment, it didn't matter whether Zhu Ning's memory was true or false.

It doesn't matter whether Zhu Yao exists or not.

It doesn't matter whether the zombie world is real or fake.

It doesn't matter why she exists, and it doesn't matter whether she is an experimental subject.

What matters is that she is alive, and the fact that she is alive proves everything.

Zhu Ning opened her eyes, and data streams were flowing wildly in her eyes.

She stared directly at the alien in front of her. The things that were flowing out of her body were originally rushing towards the ceiling, and the sticky liquid was falling down.

The black slime itself was pulsating, but now it was strangely stiff.

It was clearly a condescending perspective, it was clearly filled with unspeakable mystery and terror, and it clearly had the power to destroy everything, but when Zhu Ning looked at him, it was as if they were looking at each other on an equal footing.

No, they were being looked down upon by Zhu Ning.

Zhu Ning's posture was to look up at them, but his eyes were looking down at them.

She refused to accept her fate, just like countless defective products refused to accept it.

She couldn't tell truth from falsehood, and didn't know whether her world was real.

Then be a little selfish and narcissistic, she is the center of the universe.

Let her rewrite her own world, and everything in this world revolves around her.

What is beneficial to her is true, so Zhu Yao is true, and the strong heart that Zhu Yao gave her is true.

What is in her favor is true, so it is true that she was able to break through herself and win the national championship, and it is true that she stood on the podium.

What was in her favor was true, so it was true that she was once rescued from a garbage dump.

Lao Yang is real, and Liu Sheng is also real.

Truth cannot be proven, but falsehood cannot be proven either.

It is easy to destroy the truth, but it takes a hundred times more effort to destroy a lie.

This is not fair.

If it’s fake, then it’s fake. If Zhu Ning thinks it’s true, then it’s true.

She is an experimental subject, and there is a system in her brain that may, as Gao Yingcheng described, gnaw at her brain and eventually devour her completely.

But it's just a tool, like how you can control yourself from being devoured by a puppy at home.

She will tame it.

If she couldn't do it now, she would do it later, and she would tame it.

Zhu Ning stood up.

She had been curled up in bed with her knees hugged, a fragile and vulnerable position, but now she stood up.

She was not wearing protective clothing or any combat gear, and she had no weapons in her hands.

She was wearing a set of blue long-sleeved autumn pajamas, which she bought at a discount for fifty Singapore dollars.

Her hair was disheveled and messy, and from every angle she looked like an ordinary girl who had just woken up.

But she was standing now, beneath the black slime, surrounded by the wriggling contamination, and she looked him straight in the eye.

This is her contaminated area and she is the master here.

Zhu Ning once gave Lin Xiaofeng strength, and now Lin Xiaofeng's strength is also passed on to himself.

Only then did she understand what Lin Xiaofeng had to face that day, and she stood up again from the ruins of the collapse and declared that she was the master of this place.

This is not easy for a ten-year-old girl.

When she started working, Fang Ying asked her, "Are you afraid of corpses? Are you afraid of monsters?"

When entering any polluted area, you must force yourself not to be afraid. As long as you are not afraid, spiritual pollution cannot contaminate you.

She had been broken, but she could get back up.

It was like she had fallen before, had been called a waste before, but she could still stand up.

Zhu Ning stood up, she just stood there.

The black slime in front of them began to move, as if they had seen something more terrifying than themselves, and they wanted to flee in all directions.

But it was too late.

The author has something to say:

I will explain the parts you don’t understand later. In fact, many people have guessed it. It doesn’t matter if you can’t guess it. Don’t think too much. Just relax and feel Ning Bao’s emotions.
