Chapter 336 Deep Virtual Reality 164
After hanging up the call, Xu Sanci rubbed his forehead, and his assistant handed him a cup of black tea at the right moment.
"This is just bad luck. Who would have thought that Director Xie's assistant would come from Jiangning District, which is a notorious slum."
Otherwise, they could simply ignore it and not even bother with compensation; at most, the federal government would provide some relief funds.
With so many alien creatures around, who would bother to investigate whether it was their experimental subjects or other alien creatures that did it?
"Never mind, it'll be fine with a little money anyway. Just remember to get reimbursed by the company." Xu Sanci took off his glasses, wiped them, and then got up to leave.
"Should everyone else also receive the same compensation?"
Xu Sanci paused, his tone meaningful, "It wasn't us who did it, so what does it have to do with us?"
What you say to Zhou Qin is one thing, whether you actually do it is another. "But you still have to get reimbursed for expenses that are due."
Upon meeting Xu Sanci's gaze, the assistant instantly understood: the compensation amount was to be submitted, but only Zhou Qin's share would be given; the rest would naturally go into their own pockets.
Looking down at the time, the assistant hurriedly followed Xu Sanci's footsteps. He still needed to get the antidote for Zhou Qin, as the venom of the mutated spider was not so easy to cure.
Passing by the splitting laboratory, one by one the mutated spiders inside were blasted into mincemeat by gunfire. Only a few survived the experiments. After their wounds healed, they were put to undergo toxin experiments to test their tolerance.
If they can fuse with the venom in the toxin experiment and use it to enhance themselves, they can survive; otherwise, they will dissolve.
The experiments are endless, because very few alien creatures can survive to the end and enter Zone S. Even if they do enter Zone S, although they receive better treatment, the level of experimentation is also the highest.
Instead of changing into protective gear before entering the internal laboratory, the assistant handed the documents in his hand to another laboratory assistant and then took the elevator down to the next floor.
The passageway was made of transparent glass on both sides, and inside there seemed to be only artificial seawater with an eerie shimmer. However, the assistant knew exactly what was inside and only glanced at the depths of the tank for a second before looking away.
A chill ran down his spine, and the assistant quickened his pace. The creatures inside weren't powerful, but they weren't beautiful either; they were all failed experiments, and quite ugly.
"Beep—Identity confirmed. Welcome to the embryo culture room. Assistant Slo, please wear protective goggles to avoid eye damage from light source radiation."
Sle opened the cabinet next to him, took out a pair of protective goggles, put them on, and pushed open the glass door in front of him. Countless cylindrical glass jars were neatly arranged against the wall, and the dazzling blue light was reflected and pierced his eyes. If he hadn't been wearing protective goggles, his vision would have blurred after just a few seconds.
This is the embryonic development room for alien creatures. He also saw the mutated spider embryos they were currently experimenting with; they were translucent, flesh-colored, and appeared to be completely harmless.
Further inside were different types of incubation rooms and reagent extraction rooms. He was going to the second one, where the antidote for the mutated bird-eating spider's venom was extracted from the bird-eating spider embryo.
It has value, but it's not particularly precious. After all, the venom of that mutated bird-eating spider isn't very potent. Otherwise, Director Xu wouldn't have agreed to help so easily.
The main reason is Xie Ning. Director Xu doesn't want to break ties with Xie Ning right now because they still want Xie Ning to lead the team to Kongxing Island again.
For some unknown reason, the magnetic field of Sky Island has changed again, making it impossible for aircraft to reach it. Even ships are prone to losing their way, not to mention the surge in alien creatures around the island.
They wanted to follow Professor Lillian's example and explore the island again, but even though they deployed more Awakened and armed personnel, they were still unable to get close.
After a series of failures, they finally remembered the people who had safely returned from the island before and planned to send them back to the island, but the plan was still in the planning stage.
Sloe vaguely sensed that the higher-ups planned to send more test subjects, especially those comparable to or even stronger than Professor Lillian's original test subject, number 208.
However, they were also afraid of losing control and suffering losses, which is why they had been making preparations.
Besides their original purpose, they had another reason for landing on the island: to find Number 208. According to Xie Ning and the others, Number 208 was still alive and seemed to have undergone significant evolution, which was of great significance to them.
Therefore, we cannot abandon 208.
