Chapter 240 Deep Virtual Reality 67
Because of her busy schedule, Xie Ning hadn't slept well for several days in a row. She only had a chance to get a good night's sleep when Dr. Ji finally returned from his business trip.
With only three days left until the actual combat test, the test subjects were in good condition, with all their values showing significant improvement, though the emphasis was different.
Although Dr. Ji was away on business, he still made time every day to follow up on the observation data, so he was very familiar with the various conditions of the experimental subjects.
Seeing that Dr. Ji's eyes did not show any satisfaction, Xie Ning exchanged a glance with Jiang Teng beside her before asking, "Dr. Ji, do you think they have a chance of winning against Professor Lillian's experimental subjects?"
She and Jiang Teng had tried their best to improve the experimental subject's combat power according to Dr. Ji's instructions, but neither Dr. Ji nor Director Crete, although they had admiration for the experimental subject in their eyes, ever showed any satisfaction. Perhaps, it should be said that they lacked the confidence to win.
"Hmm? You guys really want to win?"
These words confused Xie Ning and the others. They had put in so much effort just to win, right? If they lost, the experimental subject would be destroyed, and all their hard work would be for nothing.
Director Crete overheard their conversation and laughed through his earpiece, "You bunch of youngsters... Lillian's research isn't so easy to deal with. Just focus on the final data testing. Our next test subject will definitely be even more formidable."
Seeing Dr. Ji nod and smile, Xie Ning's heart sank even further. Although she had a prediction of the power of the experimental subjects on Lillian's side, she still held a sliver of hope.
Unexpectedly, Dr. Ji and Director Crete had no hope for the test subjects from the beginning. They did not care if the test subjects were damaged in this test, after all, these test subjects were not perfect.
If the practical test fails, the experimental subjects are gone, but the data still exists, so they don't lose out.
Jiang Teng patted Xie Ning's shoulder reassuringly. Compared to him, Xie Ning was working even harder. Jiang Teng thought Xie Ning really wanted to win, just like Chu Qing, to prove himself. But he didn't know that Xie Ning just wanted the test subjects to live as long as possible.
The young man's agile figure was calculated and analyzed frame by frame on the screen. Xie Ning gently closed the screen and looked down at the experimental subject inside the cabin. The perfect combination of flesh and metal machinery, warmth and coldness, created a bizarre and grotesque beauty.
Humans consider themselves their creators, so their life and death should also be decided by humans. Xie Ning is very clear that if she stands idly by at this moment, she will avoid a lot of trouble and risks. However, if she takes action, it does not mean that everything she gains will be harmful.
It's hard to go it alone; she should start having some people of her own.
"It's raining heavily today, please remember to bring an umbrella. Xie Ning, have a safe journey."
A cold, electronic female voice filled her ears, and the dampness from the torrential rain outside hit her face. Xie Ning didn't take the umbrella from the umbrella stand and walked straight into the rain.
The levitation train, like a snake hunting its prey, patrols through the steel forest. Tall, lifelike virtual avatars are projected into the air, and a girl in a white dress dances gracefully on tiptoe, like a flower blooming in the rain.
Xie Ning's gaze pierced through the layers of rain and met her eyes. The girl slowly squatted down in front of Xie Ning, spreading her fingers and placing them above Xie Ning's head, seemingly to shield her from the raindrops falling from the sky.
