Chapter 360 Deep Virtual Reality 188
When Xie Ning returned to the ground floor, it was already dawn. She rubbed her eyes wearily. Overusing her powers was making her feel mentally exhausted, but she couldn't sleep yet.
The exam was in a few hours, and she still had to handle some follow-up work and treat the experimental subject's wounds. Since there wasn't enough time left for her to take 208 and the others back to the villa and then back to the academy, she took them with her back to the academy.
The triangular-eyed creature stood somewhat awkwardly in the spacious living room. Its body was a translucent lead-gray color, with a short, nearly round head, a slightly protruding forehead, two tentacles-like structures, and cylindrical protrusions around its mouthparts, resembling the stamens of a female flower.
There were some short legs on both sides of the abdomen... Xie Ning had some difficulty in making a judgment, because this experimental subject did not walk with these "legs", but moved by the thick tentacles that extended from its back.
Instead of treating the wound rashly, Xie Ning first looked up some information and finally found some data about this experimental subject in the marine life evolution archive.
"B-27" is the experimental subject's designation.
It should be in Zone B, because the area where 208 is located is S-208. I just don't know how this test subject ended up in the storage room in Zone S. Maybe it was upgraded?
Xie Ning was unaware of the details; the information she was looking at was incomplete, as the data retrieval had been interrupted, and the materials Professor Yun Jing sent her did not contain any information about this experimental subject.
"Let me treat your wound first."
Xie Ning took 27 to the bathroom, then filled the bathtub with water and added some of her usual artificial seawater additive. Although it wasn't as good as the specially formulated seawater in the lab, it was pretty much the same.
B27 has a complex water pipe system inside its body, and the "limbs" on its abdomen are not legs, but liquid filter pipes.
Fortunately, although B27 has poor self-healing ability, its wounds are not fatal, which Xie Ning finds amazing. Such wounds would be fatal to any creature, but B27 did not feel anything, and its internal systems were not affected in the slightest.
Xie Ning wasn't an expert in this area; all she could do was pour the treatment medicine provided by Ruila into the bathtub and let B27 absorb it on its own.
With 208 watching over her, she wasn't worried that B27 would cause any trouble.
After handling the aftermath, the exams continued. One night was enough for the security guards to identify and eliminate some of the hidden alien creatures in the academy, so the exams continued the next day.
After the exam, you have to go to the security bureau to give a statement, which mainly involves answering questions from the examinee who suddenly mutated during the exam.
After finishing all that, it got dark again, and a light drizzle drifted in the wind. Xie Ning opened her umbrella and walked out the door, saying to Zong Ren, who had seen her off, "I'll just take the tram home by myself later."
She didn't drive; she came in a police car from the security bureau.
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation."
Xie Ning walked toward the bus shelter when suddenly a hover police car stopped in front of the Security Bureau. A woman got out of the car; her short, neat hair was slightly damp, and her deep eyes paused for a moment when she saw Xie Ning before she nodded.
Xie Ning smiled and greeted her. Zhan Lin must have been busy all day. She needed to help deal with the alien creatures in the academy, and then she was transferred to the experimental base to help.
Anlis's death was a slap in the face to the Federation and enough to make them wary. After all, how could someone as invincible as Anlis be killed so easily?
Then Xie Ning successfully made it onto the wanted list and became a federal Class A wanted criminal. Because she was cautious enough, the other party didn't know her appearance or even whether she was male or female.
Xie Ning looked at the news broadcast on the big screen outside. The bounty was 100 million yuan. They were willing to spend money, but it was still less than the bounty she had in the underground city.
As an arms designer and medicine supplier, the rebels failed to protect some of her information, leading to a leak, and her codename appeared on the black market bounty list.
It's not her head we want, but her as a person, alive, for 300 million federal dollars.
It seems the rebels' recent actions have attracted many covetous eyes; she'll have to be even more careful from now on.
