Chapter 412 Guarding and Coveting



"Why were they brought up here? I don't recognize them at all!" A sharp voice pierced the silence, filled with suspicion and wariness.

"Damn it, what happened to the assurances we received? Weren't we told there wouldn't be any outsiders on the cruise ship?" Another voice followed, angry yet tinged with helplessness.

The players had exceptionally sharp hearing; these people were already speaking quite loudly, so they heard them very clearly.

Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow. It seemed that their sudden appearance had caused quite a bit of panic!

The Ark was rumored to be the last pure land, and now that Xiao Jin and other 'unfamiliar faces' have suddenly appeared, it has instantly caused unease among everyone, with some even clamoring to drive them out.

However, their words obviously didn't count, and in the end, Xiao Jin and the others still sat in the isolation room.

The door to the isolation room closed slowly with a dull thud, isolating the group from the outside world.

Inside the isolation room, a cold and dazzling white light enveloped every inch of the space, and the surrounding walls were as clear as crystal, displaying everything inside to the outside world without reservation.

This place felt like a transparent cage, with only a few lonely single beds and a bathroom that was deliberately kept private.

Xiao Jin and his group stood in the center of the isolation room, their eyes involuntarily sweeping towards the surveillance camera in the corner.

The dark lens seemed to see into people's hearts, recording their every move.

In the end, the group exchanged glances, chose not to speak, and slowly lay down on the single bed behind them.

Unfortunately, the people on Ark miscalculated.

Xiao Jin and the others are players. Even if they can't speak directly, they still have ways to communicate, such as through the friends panel.

[Cen Nian: That Professor Chen is definitely up to no good!]

[Xiao Jin: Don't forget his identity. The methods we've shown before are like a hot commodity to him. How could he not covet them!]

[Cen Nian: So what will he do?]

[Xiao Jin: He just wants to find a test subject.]

Cen Nian: Then we...

Cen Nian was somewhat worried.

They're now on the ark, essentially in someone else's territory. They're at the mercy of others, and anything is possible.

[Xiao Jin: Don't worry, the game is about to end, but... the weather is about to change!]

After saying that, Xiao Jin closed the panel and crawled out from under the covers.

Meanwhile, in the monitoring room on the other side.

The big boss stared at the scene in the isolation room and couldn't help but wonder: "Are you sure you've searched them and taken all their communication devices?"

The lieutenant colonel nodded solemnly: "Yes, I can guarantee that."

"But what are they doing?"

"Uh..." The lieutenant colonel paused for a moment, "Maybe he's a little... shy!"

Big Boss: ...That would be best.

"What else did Professor Chen say?"

Upon hearing the question, the lieutenant colonel perked up: "He said he would come to report to you in person later. In any case, Professor Chen's point is that these people have a big secret and we absolutely cannot let them escape."

The big boss seemed to be deep in thought.

He still believed Professor Chen's words, after all, the other party was also a well-known bigwig in the research institute, with many outstanding scientific research results.

"Alright, let's keep an eye on them first. If they engage in any dangerous behavior, suppress them if possible, and if not, minimize the impact."

The lieutenant colonel stood still, his face serious: "Yes, sir."

………………

A few hours later, the last rays of the setting sun had quietly faded, and night fell silently, draping the sea refuge in a veil of mystery.

The Ark wasn't completely ignoring them; they thoughtfully prepared dinner for Xiao Jin and the others.

The meal consisted of one meat dish and one vegetable dish, served with white rice, and looked very appealing.

"Wow, there's even this kind of treatment?" one player exclaimed happily, sitting on the bed.

They thought they would be hungry tonight, since it was inconvenient to take things out of their storage space, but unexpectedly, there was a pleasant surprise.

The cameras were still running, and despite the faint gazes directed at them, everyone finished their dinner without hesitation.

Even if they don't eat, the other party will definitely have other ways to force them to eat, so they might as well enjoy it.

After the meal, a person in protective clothing entered the isolation room to collect the food trays.

Just as the other party was preparing to quietly clean up the mess, a deep voice suddenly rang out: "Wait..."

That was Lu Jing. Although his voice wasn't loud, it made the person who was about to turn away tremble.

As if frozen in place by an invisible force, the other party almost dropped what they were holding and fled.

But the voice that came to his ears immediately brought him back to his senses, which had been on the verge of collapse.

"Don't panic, listen to what he has to say." The staff member's tense mood calmed down a little.

He took a deep breath and slowly turned around. When he saw Lu Jing's dark eyes, he felt his scalp tingle.

But he suppressed his urge to escape and politely asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Lu Jing's face was gloomy, his brows were furrowed, and his tone was clearly impatient: "When can we get out?"

"It's been two hours already. If they could turn into zombies, they would have done it by now!"

So that's why! I thought he had discovered something! The person behind the earpiece breathed a sigh of relief.

A moment later, the staff member quickly regained his professional composure and began repeating what he had heard: "Yes, sir."

Although initial checks show that you have not mutated, in order to reassure all residents of the Ark and ensure their safety,
