For some reason, when they came to this laboratory again, it was completely different from what it was when they saw it before.
In just four months, all the patrol robots in the laboratory were damaged and piled up in a corner, with a layer of spider webs covering their bodies.
The two beehives have also changed a lot. All the grids are gone. Now they look like two storage rooms.
Shen Yijin and Nan Mingcheng looked at each other, both confused by the changes in the laboratory.
Chen Yijin tried to analyze the reasons for this change: "Is it because we informed the special department about the anomalies here last time? They strengthened public security management in various areas and increased protection for children. The laboratory has been without new test subjects for a long time, and the experiments can't continue. That's why it's like this now?"
Nan Mingcheng shook his head, saying that although he didn't know the reason, it was probably not what Shen Yijin said.
"Let's go upstairs and take a look." Nan Mingcheng said, "Maybe the answer is upstairs."
Shen Yijin nodded and went upstairs with Nan Mingcheng.
The second floor is even more desolate than the first, as if no one has been there for a long time.
Chen Yijin was shocked: "Compared to the first time we came here, this is two times more difficult."
When they sneaked in, they were very cautious and tested the situation, fearing that they would be discovered.
Now, I walked in openly, but I couldn’t see anyone.
Shen Yijin used his spiritual sense to search the entire building, but he couldn't find any trace of living people.
If the laboratory really closed down because there were no experimental subjects, that would be fine, but if the leader and elders of the Meteorite Sect had completed their experiments and voluntarily abandoned the laboratory, that would be bad.
Nan Mingcheng pushed open the door of the laboratory and looked inside. The experimenter was sitting in front of the experimental cabin with his eyes closed.
The people in the six experimental chambers were still the same six people they saw when they came last time, but there was also a long-haired woman lying on the ground in front of the experimental chamber.
Nan Mingcheng recognized the woman at first sight; she was An Ningxuan.
"There's someone in the lab." Nan Mingcheng turned around and said to Shen Yijin.
Shen Yijin was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't feel anyone in the laboratory. Could it be that the person inside was dead...
As Shen Yijin thought about it, she walked to Nan Mingcheng's side, looked into the laboratory, and then her eyes met the experimenter's.
Shen Yijin: “…”
It's okay to get slapped in the face right after thinking about it.
When the experimenter saw Shen Yijin coming, he smiled, which he thought was quite gentle.
But there was no flesh on his face anymore, and the skin hung loosely on his face, making his smile uglier than his crying.
Not only that, the experimenter's voice was also different from before. He said to Shen Yijin and the others in a voice like a broken bellows: "It's been four months. I thought you didn't plan to come here again."
"Have you been waiting for us?" Shen Yijin asked.
"Well, if you don't come soon, I'm going to die completely." The experimenter stood up unsteadily, his eyes fixed on the bag in Shen Yijin's hand. "Is this filled with something that can kill insects? Give me a sip quickly."
Chen Yijin frowned and took a few steps back with Nan Mingcheng: "When did you know that there were devouring insects in your body?"
It was obvious that the last time they came, the experimenter didn't know that he had parasites in his body. He was very timid at that time and would not speak in a commanding tone like he does now.
Now that no one else was in the lab and the drug to kill the worms had already been developed, the experimenter dropped his pretense and sneered, "I knew it from the beginning. The eggs weren't placed in my head until I signed a waiver."
After hearing what the experimenter said, Shen Yijin and the others immediately understood: "The note we found earlier was written by you, and the handwriting on the last page of the experiment manual was also written by you!"
"To be precise, we wrote it." The experimenter corrected the two people's wording.
"you?"
"Yeah, I wasn't the only one who signed the waiver and volunteered to participate in the experiment. Otherwise, how could those notes only be seen by certain people? Haven't you ever thought that it's because the notes were written by different people?"
The experimenter's words reminded Shen Yijin and the others that they had found three notes in the laboratory, but some of them could only be seen by one of them. At that time, they wondered why, but in the end, they didn't figure out the reason until they left.
Now the experimenters have solved their doubts.
Although the handwriting is the same, it was not written by the same person.
Among those who volunteered to participate in the experiment, there were people with special abilities.
"Don't talk so much for now, just give me a dose of the medicine quickly." Shen Yijin wanted to ask more, but the experimenter was already impatient. He swayed his body and rushed towards Shen Yijin, trying to snatch the bag full of insect-killing medicine from her hand.
Shen Yijin dodged flexibly and prevented the experimenter from touching the bag.
She took a bottle of potion from her bag and tossed it to the experimenter.
Seeing the experimenter take the medicine, unscrew the cap and pour it into his mouth, Shen Yijin's breathing stopped for a moment: "You just drink it directly without diluting it? You won't die if you drink it directly, right?"
The experimenter drank the entire bottle of medicine directly. He licked his lips with satisfaction, staring at the bag in Shen Yijin's hand, and wanted to drink another bottle.
"It's okay. I have a lot of gnats in my body, and drinking this bottle won't kill them all. How about giving me another bottle? You're here to kill the gnats too, so giving me the drink will be the same as killing them."
Shen Yijin ruthlessly rejected the experimenter's request: "No, you need to explain yourself clearly first."
"Alright." The experimenter sighed and returned to his original seat. "A man claiming to be an elder of the Meteoric Sect came to us and asked us to participate in an experiment. He said that after the experiment is completed, we will no longer feel pain and will go to a beautiful place like heaven."
"At that time, we were all suffering from incurable diseases and felt like we were dying. We thought that after participating in the experiment, our situation couldn't get any worse than it was now, so we agreed to his request. But we didn't expect that would be the beginning of our nightmare. The place he mentioned, which was as beautiful as heaven, turned out to be someone else's brain!"
Shen Yijin's eyebrows jumped, as if he knew what was talking to them now: "Are you a gnat?"
It turns out that the Zerg have their own consciousness. Were they transformed from humans?
The experimenter shook his head. "We consider ourselves still human. However, the leader of the Meteorite Sect claims that we are the mother of the Devourers, and that all other Devourers were bred by us. But the funny thing is, as the 'mothers' of those insects, we can't kill them, or even stop their production."
