Chapter 140 Infiltration



It is undeniable that miracles have occurred at Tianchi.

That miracle allowed him to live a healthy life, but it also led him down a path opposite to that of humans.

If even the blood relatives of Tianchi, whose humanity has been diminished, can be so ruthless, what are the residents of a base compared to them?

He just hid all this darkness very well.

When all of this is laid bare before you, it can no longer be ignored.

"Qin Tan, that man was one of the former leaders of Base No. 8. He accidentally discovered his brother's plan but was unwilling to cooperate."

"During a mission, news of a death came."

"Actually, it was my brother who had someone set him up. After announcing his death to the public, he was locked up here and became one of the test subjects."

"They discovered that the higher a person's transcendental level, the higher the limit they can withstand."

In eliminating the enemy, he also found himself a high-level test subject.

And as expected, the other side survived one experiment after another.

In his current state, he is not dead, but is no different from being dead.

He lay there, like a soulless lump of rotting flesh, silently waiting to decay.

The brutality of Tianchi made the angel, who was a robot, often reflect on why she had to be like a human and have emotions.

If she lacks emotions, then she can simply be a puppet who only obeys orders.

Should we continue waiting here?

Qin Tan asked the question but did not offer any words of comfort.

Talking about it now is pointless.

They are now in a blind spot, and the people below cannot see them. They just need to be careful to avoid the butterfly queens.

It's difficult to get close enough to touch it.

"Okay, wait another hour."

The angel pointed to the butterfly queens: "In another hour, they will undergo a brief cocooning process, just like human sleep."

"We'll act then."

Qin Tan, who was blind here, followed the angel's arrangement.

They remained hidden there until one day, when the angel called out to Qin Tan to run deeper into the passage.

She could clearly feel a foul wind blowing through the cave.

Looking back, they saw that all the butterfly queens were heading towards the deep cave where the two of them were.

They ran ahead, while the butterfly queens seemed to be chasing after them with all their might.

In reality, the two sides never met.

"Okay, you can stay here."

The angel pulled Qin Tan to a stop and gestured for her to look in that direction.

Soon after, a queen butterfly flew in, but its size prevented it from spreading its wings properly.

It folded its wings and lay prone on the ground.

Qin Tan observed that the subsequent butterfly queens all took the same action.

The scattered phosphorescent powder disappeared, and some mucus began to seep from the Queen Butterfly's beautiful, deep blue body.

As a result, the outer layer of tissue of the queen butterfly begins to soften and fade, until it turns into a sticky, fleshy worm.

These worms were the same pile Qin Tan had seen in the garbage bag.

The plump worm's entire body was covered in mucus, and its wings seemed to have degenerated, stuck to its back and unable to unfold.

They closed their eyes.

In a short while, the mucus formed a thick shell on their bodies, resembling the larvae of butterflies that had not yet emerged from their chrysalis.

"These queen butterflies are very aggressive. Although they cannot be easily tamed after being artificially modified, keeping them in this dormant state every day makes it easier for researchers to take samples."

Qin Tan heard footsteps approaching from afar.

Several people, wearing protective suits, walked in.

The moment Qin Tan saw them, she realized that both she and the angel had overlooked that polluting energy.

But these people are not suitable.

They carefully used instruments to examine the dormant state of these butterfly queens. After ensuring safety, they used a cutter to open the shells and began taking samples.

Pieces of fat were dug off and transported to the test bench.

Fortunately, these people did not intend to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs; they would only take a small sample from each queen butterfly.

Therefore, the people who came in were scattered.

One of them was standing in front of Qin Tan and the others, with only a corner separating them.

After meeting the angel's gaze, Qin Tan understood what the angel meant.

If you want to sneak in unnoticed, disguising yourself as an insider is the best option.

Qin Tan picked up a pebble from the ground and threw it deeper into the water.

The sound of the impact attracted the other party's attention.

Who is it?

The person asked, and it was a woman's voice.

"There can't possibly be anyone here, right?" came a young-sounding male voice.

"Could there be another one inside that's still awake?"

The woman asked cautiously.

If a Butterfly Queen is awakened and enraged, it will instantly awaken its sleeping companions and tear them apart once it begins to call for them.

"Let's go take a look."

The man beckoned the woman to carefully walk over together.

The empty cave relaxed them, and they let go of the weapons that were placed behind their backs.

"It's alright, go back."

The woman's voice sounded much lighter. She beckoned her companion to turn back, and just then, a dark shadow fell over her head.

Qin Tan descended from above and knocked the woman unconscious with a karate chop.

Beside her, the angel followed suit, and the man also collapsed.

A current of electricity shot from the angel's fingertips: "This shock will put them to sleep for a day; that should be enough time."

She also gave the woman a quick rub.

After quickly stripping off their clothes, it was discovered that the two were also fully armed and wearing masks, making it impossible to see their faces.

After coughing a few times, Qin Tan lowered his voice, trying to sound as quiet as a woman.

But the angel's voice was that of a man.

"I'll cover for you."

To be honest, I'm really not used to unfamiliar voices.

They took their sampling equipment and went back. Under the guidance of the angel, Qin Tan successfully completed the sampling work.

They heard voices outside, signaling them to retreat.

Qin Tan and Angel followed at the back of the group, observing the actions of the others, trying to avoid making any mistakes.

After they took the elevator to the experimental floor, everyone placed the samples in the designated room and then carried out disinfection.

Qin Tan changed her hairstyle to match that woman's, and put on glasses and a mask.

Wearing a white coat, he didn't stand out in a place where white coats were everywhere.

If they don't take off their masks, they look about 70% similar.

To Qin Tan's surprise, it was an angel.

The angel walking beside her still had a female appearance, but spoke in a male voice, and no one passing by suspected anything.

“I activated the bio-simulation function. As long as I don’t touch them directly, in their eyes, I am the person they know.”

The angel wore an identification tag around its neck.

The other person's name is Niu Junyan.

After adjusting her ID card, Qin Tan followed behind the angel and started queuing.

They are about to receive a new mission.

The owner of her identity card is named Xuan Chaochao, and she and Niu Junyan are both low-level employees here.

They do the dirtiest and most tiring work.
