Chapter 234 Awakening

In a bright laboratory, a man and a woman in hospital gowns with their hands and feet tied were lying on two laboratory tables.

Their bodies are connected to various complex instruments and tubes, and surrounded by cold metal brackets and flashing display screens. The man and woman on the experimental table fell into a deep coma, and only the occasional flashing of instrument indicators showed that they still had a trace of life.

Among them, a girl was sitting cross-legged, a faint light emanating from her body. Strands of white threads emanated from her body, like tiny bands of light, slowly entering the bodies of the man and woman on the experimental table.

The medical staff around them kept a close eye on the three people in the middle. If anything happened, they would rush forward to rescue them immediately.

The laboratory was silent, with only the sounds of people breathing and machines ticking echoing in the air.

"ah!"

Suddenly, the boy on the experimental table clenched his teeth and arched his body in pain. His hands and feet began to bleed due to the intense struggle, as if there was an unbearable force inside his body tearing him apart.

"puff!"

The girl in the middle suddenly opened her eyes as if she had been hit back, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth and splashed onto the ground. Her body shook slightly, obviously having suffered a great impact.

"Quick, get treatment!"

Someone immediately shouted loudly, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

The medical staff responded quickly. They injected sedatives into the boys on the stage and therapeutic drugs into the girl in the middle.

The girl didn't have time to care about her own safety. She quickly sat down cross-legged again, closed her eyes, and continued to use her supernatural powers. There was a hint of determination on her face, as if she was fighting against some invisible force.

“Ahhhh!”

The boy struggled harder, and the next moment, he felt like he was stabbed in the chest, and blood began to flow out. His body shook violently and his groans of pain were particularly harsh in the quiet laboratory.

"Number One has broken free from the illusion!"

The girl spoke with difficulty, her voice a little hoarse. She didn't stop and continued to control the remaining person.

"Go inform the captain!"

The medical staff obeyed the order, ran out of the room quickly and knocked on the door of the next room.

"Report!" The knock on the door came quickly and forcefully.

Lan Yuncheng frowned, put down the pen in his hand, and rubbed his eyebrows.

Hearing the report, he didn't even raise his head, picked up the pen again and began to look at the document. He asked in a flat tone: "What's the matter?"

"Number one is awake!" There was a hint of panic in the voice of the man in the white coat.

"What, so fast!" Lan Yuncheng finally raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

According to their budget, this person won't wake up until tomorrow.

What was the problem that caused him to wake up so early?

Lan Yuncheng immediately put the documents in his hand back on the table, picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair, and ran to the laboratory next door.

At this moment in the laboratory, two people tied up like dumplings were lying on the experimental table.

The girl was still in a coma, while the boy was covered in blood, as if he had just experienced a fierce battle.

Lu Lige, who had been sitting between them, was shaking constantly. It was obvious that she was exhausted from maintaining the illusion.

Chen Chuntao, who arrived earlier than Lan Yuncheng, was using her healing powers to give her emergency treatment.

Cheng Bai, who was originally dizzy due to excessive blood loss, raised his head with difficulty when he saw Lan Yuncheng coming over in uniform.

The look he gave Lan Yuncheng was full of complexity, and his voice was hoarse like a machine that had not been oiled for a long time: "How did you do it?"

Cheng Bai has always been very careful and vigilant, but he didn't expect that he would fall into the trap.

Now that I think about it, I understand why Lan Ximeng, knowing full well that Bai Yiting and he had ulterior motives, was still willing to team up with him to complete the mission without any precautions.

He thought that his attempt to show goodwill was successful, but now he thinks it must be because of the special ability of the girl in the middle.

He glanced at the girl in the middle and felt that she looked familiar.

"Li Lu?"

Lan Yuncheng sat on the chair opposite, slowly drinking the tea made by his men, and first answered Cheng Bai's previous question, "The moment you stepped onto the starship from the university star."

Hearing this, Cheng Bai raised his head suddenly, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes: "Space jump?"

I was in a daze at that time and didn't expect that after defending for so long, I still got hit.

"Smart!" Lan Yuncheng put down the teacup, walked over slowly, with a hint of joy in his tone.

"I guess the Zhou Nuo in the illusion is you?" Cheng Bai turned his head and looked at the white ceiling.

Lan Yuncheng nodded, and realizing that Cheng Bai didn't see it, he said, "Yes, the people in your group are all my people. It's easier to find real people to enter the environment than to create it out of thin air."

"Really?" Cheng Bai chuckled and said no more.

"We never knew why you attacked my sister, but now we finally know." Lan Yuncheng walked to Cheng Bai's bed. "Although I don't know why you became 'Cheng Bai', I can only say sorry for what happened to you."

"Will you attack humans?"

When Cheng Bai heard this, he thought of his previous life. Living under the red flag, he couldn't do it.

But, that person will.

He shook his head slightly, "I don't know." Since he became conscious, this matter was no longer something he could decide.

"Thank you for letting us know how you 'smuggled' here."

Cheng Bai suddenly thought of something, and his pupils shrank suddenly. He looked at Bai Yiting who was immersed in the illusion, and his voice trembled a little: "Can you let her go?"

Cheng Bai wanted to continue speaking, but he was suffering from the backlash from forcibly breaking through the illusion, and the previous conversation had already exhausted his strength.

He had discovered that something was wrong with that person before, and for this reason he committed suicide several times in order to escape from the illusion.

He said again with difficulty: "You, you let her go."

Chen Chuntao shook her head and looked at Bai Yiting with a complicated look in her eyes: "This is not something we can decide. Her body can't hold on for long."

Cheng Bai knew that it was a miracle that a child cloned from body fragments and forcibly raised could survive in the world for so long.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said with a hint of fatigue in his voice: "Hey."

Chen Chuntao injected the healing potion in her hand onto Cheng Bai's body and asked softly, "Do you still remember me?"

Cheng Bai glanced at Chen Chuntao indifferently, then at Lan Yuncheng and Lan Guoqiang. He nodded slowly: "Remember, at that time we still wanted to go to the destination with you."

The medicine was slowly pushed into Cheng Bai's body, and his complexion gradually improved.

“I didn’t expect that.”

Lan Yuncheng continued his unfinished words, "I didn't expect that I would follow in our footsteps and enter a strange world."

"Why are you doing this? Since you have come to the Federation, why don't you choose to ask for help? We are from the same place!" Lan Guoqiang also came over and surrounded Cheng Bai who was lying on the stage.

"It's impossible. It has been impossible since the moment we were caught." Cheng Bai's body was like a container with shackles suddenly opened, and the vitality that had been restored quickly dissipated.

He was originally in his early twenties, but suddenly his hair grew white and wrinkles appeared.
