Chapter 33 Healing the Imperial General 5

Perhaps it was because the experimental subject was resistant to drugs, or perhaps it was because Xing Zhanye showed mercy in the end, Xing Jian did not sleep for long. When he opened his eyes again, everything in front of him had changed.

He was lying on a simple folding bed, wrapped in a thick blanket.

Noticing that Xing Jian had woken up, people wearing the same clothes as Xing Zhanye came over. She squatted beside the bed and took Xing Jian's temperature with a thermometer. "It's 37.6 degrees Celsius, Xiao Xing, your temperature is still a little high. You should get some rest first."

Are you having a fever?

Xingjian didn't think that his body as an experimental subject would be so fragile. 004 gave Xingjian the real reason in his mind.

"Lord Xingjian, this is because the experimental subject's body is about to explode. If you can't return to the Dawn Laboratory in five hours, it will self-destruct." As 004 spoke, he had already started looking for a new body for Xingjian.

However, Xingjian's fists under the quilt gradually tightened. If it weren't for the subsequent riot of Subject X, when would the conspiracy of Chenxi Laboratory be discovered?

"No, I want to go back." Xingjian sat up and observed the surrounding environment.

He looked down and found a necklace hanging around his neck. It was Xing Zhanye's necklace. The tactical chip on the silver chain seemed to still retain Xing Zhanye's body temperature. Xing Jian took off the necklace and held it in his palm. He wanted to keep it so much, but Xing Jian knew that if he brought back something that did not belong to the Dawn Base, it would cause a lot of trouble for Xing Zhanye.

Except for the girl who had just greeted him, everyone in the cave was busy with their own affairs. Suddenly, a huge roar was heard outside the cave. It was the sound of an aircraft. The girl who had just comforted him came over again. She helped Xingjian pack his things and then stuffed them into Xingjian's hands.

"Instructor Xing has already told me that he is still searching for other students on the desolate planet. You should take the aircraft back first. Instructor Xing will look for you after you return." Then he gave Xing Jian a smile that said, "You know what I mean." Xing Jian didn't know what Xing Zhanye had told the girl in front of him. He nodded, took the schoolbag, and followed the large group towards the aircraft.

But Xing Jian did not go far. It was still drizzling outside the cave. Xing Jian stood by a bush and watched people enter the aircraft one after another. Then he saw the aircraft take off and then he ran away with peace of mind.

Five hours later, Xingjian didn't know if he still had a chance to return to the Dawn Base. At least he could avoid exploding in front of these people.

Instructor Ma took the list and pointed out the numbers of each student.

"Number 79."

No one in the aircraft answered.

"Number 79, where is it?" Ma Zhiwu frowned and clicked again, but still heard no reply.

At this time, a student weakly raised his hand and said, "Instructor Ma, No. 79 is my deskmate. He has already left in the previous batch of aircraft."

Ma Zhiwu was a little surprised when he heard the student say that No. 79 had left, because No. 79 was the one Xing Zhanye had specifically taken care of and was said to have self-destructive tendencies and was unwilling to leave.

Obviously, Ma Zhiwu did not believe all of the student's answers. He took out the electronic list and checked it until he found the information of No. 79 boarding the ship. He no longer had any doubts and directly ordered the pilot to take off.

After five hours, Xingjian felt that he had almost used up all his strength. In order to avoid being discovered, Xingjian had to take off the waterproof jacket and change into the prison uniform prepared for him by the Chenxi Laboratory.

Similarly, the experimenters of Dawn Laboratory were also searching for X, a precious and almost perfect experimental subject who must not be allowed to perish on the desolate planet.

The sound of rain became lighter, and Xingjian saw those familiar people in protective suits. They also noticed Xingjian's figure. An anesthetic needle was shot into Xingjian's body. He did not feel any pain, and was taken back to the prison again.

Xing Zhanye actually didn't trust his colleagues, but now he had to put down the Star Sword and search for other people. Fortunately, the child he was carrying was the last student who had lost contact.

The communicator was almost out of order. Xing Zhanye refreshed the takeoff list over and over again. When the rain stopped, the signal was finally restored. The electronic list showed that student No. 79 had boarded the ship and left. Xing Zhanye finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The student on his back suddenly said, "Teacher Xing, who are these people?"

The student's voice trembled as if he saw something extremely terrifying in front of him.

Following the student's line of sight, a group of people in white protective suits were particularly conspicuous. Next to them was a lead box that could almost hold a person. Both the lead box and the protective suits of the group of people had a logo of a snake entwined with the sun.

Xing Zhanye recognized these people as people from the Chenxi Laboratory, and wondered why they suddenly appeared on the desolate planet.

The group of people obviously also saw Xing Zhanye and the student. They nodded to each other but did not say anything else.

Xing Zhanye didn't know much about the Dawn Laboratory. They could turn a blind eye to the riots here, so they should be able to handle these things. What concerned him more was the huge lead box. Could it be some precious experimental instrument that could only be used for experiments in the environment of a desolate planet?

Things were gradually getting back on track, but the fact that Xingjian had secretly met with outsiders was discovered by researchers at the Chenxi Laboratory.

The terrified Chenxi Laboratory repeatedly forced Xingjian to ask who the person he met was.

The immense pain made Xingjian's consciousness blurred for a long time. The only sound in his mind was 004's constant crying. Xingjian felt like his head was about to explode.

"Shut up..." Xingjian used his last bit of strength to throw 004 back to the system world.

"X, you still don't want to say it?" The tall man outside the glass wall said as he looked at Xingjian, who was covered in blood and looked like a monster.

The researcher being questioned could only shake his head, but saw a sinister smile on the corner of the man's mouth. "Since you won't tell me, then this experimental subject is useless. His mutation direction is the eyes, right?"

The researcher nodded and heard the man say extremely cruel words.

"Then dig out the eyes and transplant them to other test subjects. No need to keep Number X."

After hearing the man's order, the researcher hesitated for once. The No. X in front of him was the only successful case in this experiment. If it was destroyed, if the transplant failed, all the efforts of his team for so long would be in vain.
