Chapter 69 Players are good people [1700 collections plus more] [VIP]
After casually sighing, the player ignored the test subject's vigilant or excited gazes and started knocking on the floor and walls with a clear goal. Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be any secret underground passages here.
How annoying.
The sullen-faced player angrily decomposed the experimental data in the seat at the end of the corridor with one click.
God knows she had obtained many reading materials and techniques like [Incomplete Experimental Data (1/2)] and [Biotechnology: Gene Editing Technology (1/5)]. She searched all the labs excitedly but couldn't find any. Any.
I had no choice but to place my last hope here, but how desperate I was when God shattered it without hesitation!
Dog planning!
The player angrily used her sword to chop down all the locks holding the experimental subjects, and stared with a gloomy face at the experimental subjects who had gathered in two rows in front of her.
"My name is Chisa Mihara, thank you for saving us..." One of the experimental subjects mustered up the courage and said nervously.
The player stared at her intently.
The subject's breathing quickened under the player's gaze. "If you have any requests, please let us know. We will do our best to cooperate..."
The player silently took out the incomplete information.
The black-haired, scaly-faced loli NPC took it and examined it carefully for a moment before confidently stating, "I've tested all seven generations of this serum on myself. I still remember the experimental data and equipment."
She picked out a document and said, "This one, the sister next to me, still remembers the protein molecular structure."
She pulled out another piece of information. "This brother assisted with the experiment. He was originally..." The black-scaled loli NPC glanced at the player's expression as his mind was about to go blank, and wisely stopped talking. "Anyway, he's very familiar with this experiment."
"Do you need us to help you complete these documents?" the loli NPC asked Lin Chen.
Lin Chen nodded happily.
Ah, how important it is to have a smart NPC. The player hasn't even said anything yet, but everything has been arranged for the player.
So the NPCs were writing furiously there, while the players were bored and grinding materials there.
A more user-friendly aspect of the system is that as long as there is a material, such as iron, you can automatically unlock the [Iron Ingot] without having to search all over the world for the recipe.
Similarly, most ores such as copper, silver, and gold can unlock this basic formula the moment they are obtained.
The player's technology tree page comes with a universal synthesis machine, which means that as long as there is a recipe and the required materials, the player can ignore any physical laws. It is equivalent to a manufacturing plant, processing plant, assembly plant, etc., and making an atomic bomb is not a difficult task.
So, it is reasonable for Lin Chen to sit there expressionlessly while compressed ×999 iron ore appears inside him, and then they quickly turn into perfectly shaped [iron ingots] one by one, right?
It makes sense that by taking out wood and [iron ingots] and tinkering with them, they can become tools like [hoe], [axe], [pickaxe], [hammer], and [shovel], right?
Take out some materials and they will quickly turn into [traps], [automatic repair machines], [automatic scanning analyzers], [automatic sweepers], [solar flashlights], etc. It simply can't be more reasonable, right?
It was originally just an activity to kill time, but as the basic materials quickly decreased, players gradually became addicted.
What's going on? Why is it so joyful when you're making props and discover that your materials can support you in making a lot of props?
Every piece of trash I picked up before is now a bullet I have rubbed out.
The player thought smugly.
Chisa Mihara looked at the magical scene in front of her and couldn't help but be fascinated.
There sat the incredibly insane and powerful Lady Player, as the researchers had spoken of her. Rumor had it she could single-handedly raze a military base to the ground, was faster than a bullet, possessed multiple supernatural powers, and was a perfectly evolved post-human... a being feared by all the major organizations.
But now, this terrifying figure was sitting casually beside her, and her eyes, which could easily end countless lives, kept producing various materials. Then, in a way that completely defied common sense of physics, without the use of any equipment, she combined them into brand new objects.
Every item is so standard and natural, as if it was born that way.
Iron ore can be transformed into perfect iron ingots in her hands in an instant, and with a little tinkering, it can be made into various tools.
This ability to manipulate matter at will is just like a magician in a fairy tale.
While recording the experimental data, Chisa Mihara couldn't help but take another look.
At this moment, Lady Player was holding a pile of parts, watching them assemble into a small fan. Her expression was serious and focused, as if she was completely immersed in the joy of making it.
This is what happened to those crazy researchers in the lab.
They always need complicated instruments and lengthy steps to complete the most basic manufacturing, but Player can easily accomplish things that they cannot achieve in their entire lives.
It's the power that makes those people so afraid, right?
However, Player is really an interesting person! Even though he has such great power, he can show a happy expression just to make a simple item like a small fan.
The man stopped making the tool, tilted his head and stared at her for a while, then suddenly handed her a small knife.
Mihara Chisa was both apprehensive and pleasantly surprised. She carefully took it. The transition between the blade and the handle was natural, the weight distribution was perfect, and even the pattern on the blade was perfect.
"This, such a precious thing..." she stammered, fearing that her rough hands would damage this perfect creation.
The player turned around and started making the next item without any concern.
Mihara Chisa gripped the knife's handle, her heart pounding. She took a deep breath and quickly forced herself back to her work. She had to hurry; she couldn't keep Master Player waiting too long.
Even as she wrote and drew, she could still hear strange assembly noises. She heard Player mutter things like, "Hey, it's me," and "I can make one of these, too," with unconcealed joy in his voice.
It seems that Mr. Player really enjoys making things. Mihara Chisa silently noted this and continued to focus on the task at hand.
Around her, the other experimental subjects were also working hard to perfect their respective parts. Everyone hoped to organize the data as quickly as possible, not wanting to disappoint Master Player's expectations.
The clever loli NPC that Lin Chen noticed, who took the initiative to take over the job, kept glancing at her secretly.
What's going on? The NPCs aren't doing their jobs properly, but are just watching the players.
Lin Chen followed her gaze and saw Yu Li's iron ingot, and silently put the ingot into his backpack.
Don't look at it, the player will never give it to you! Unless you give the player a task that requires 5 iron ingots and the reward is the [Nuclear Fusion] technology! Otherwise, the player will never give you the player's assets!
Lin Chen quietly adjusted her body to an angle that diverted her gaze, but the smart loli NPC still stared at her from time to time.
The player picked and chose and searched and found out that there was no recipe needed, and used the by-product [Iron Nuggets] produced when making [Iron Ingots] to rub out a small knife for the smart loli NPC.
Then he handed it to her at lightning speed, "Here." The player said concisely and quickly moved to a place farther away from the smart loli NPC to rub other props.
The clever loli NPC seemed to say something that the player didn't hear, but she really didn't stare at the player anymore, which made her feel relieved.
Just think of it as catching a Joja Cola and handing it to the skateboarding Super Saiyan standing next to you... It's not that players are troubled by well-behaved, sensible, cute, obedient, or otherworldly children, no!
While Lin Chen was busy making props and upgrading weapons, the clever loli NPC handed her the information she had written.
"Well... I've completed this report, but some of the experimental data is very complicated..." the smart loli said shamefully, "I'm very sorry, but this is all I can do."
But Lin Chen didn't listen at all. He symbolically took the information and flipped through it. The system soon popped up a prompt.
Acquired technology: Gene editing
Lin Chen poked at the technology in confusion, revealing its full name but still gray.
【Lack of advanced technology】
【Lack of advanced technology】
【Lack of advanced technology】
The annoyed system popped up and taunted: "With your current knowledge (attribute points), you can't understand this technology. First, unlock the prerequisite technology and raise your intelligence to 70."
The player froze for a moment.
The players were furious!
What kind of system dares to speak to players like that? It turns out it's the players themselves. That's fine.
It's disgusting that the idiot designer is doing this to block the player's game flow! Since the player has already obtained high-end technology, doesn't that represent the player's strength and IQ? Why do they still need to unlock low-end technology?
Chisa Mihara looked at Lord Player for a while, then raised her sword with a ferocious look on her face and chopped the potted plant she had made into pieces.
She asked anxiously, "Master Player...is there something wrong with this document?"
"Ah, it's fine, I'm the one with the problem." Player looked at her seriously, until she gradually recovered from her initial panic.
"Do you know its advanced technology?" Player asked her with a twinkling gaze.
Chisa Mihara automatically converted the player's words into information that normal humans could understand in her mind.
Prerequisite technology is probably the basic knowledge and technology required to realize gene editing?
She hesitated for a moment, then answered cautiously, "Master Player, we...are merely experimental subjects. We haven't received formal scientific training or education. Most of what we know comes from snippets of information the researchers mentioned during the experiments, or from our guesses based on the changes that occurred within M."
"I memorized this information and experimental data by rote because I was reminded by others..." the clever loli NPC said blushingly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you..."
"But I will," said the silent cat-eared NPC nearby. "I used to be a researcher here, albeit a peripheral and lowly one. I came here with the dream of changing the world. At first, I had no idea that I would be assisting with such a cruel experiment."
The cat-eared NPC gave the wide-eyed, clever loli NPC a reassuring look. He pursed his lips and said, "So after I learned the truth, I was terrified. Because this place is completely closed, there's no way to leave without a special reason. So I wanted to ask for leave first and then slowly work it out. But before I could do that, I became one of them..."
The cat-eared NPC blushed and rolled his Adam's apple patiently, "So... could you please stop pinching my ears?"
Lin Chen took it back with satisfaction.
This NPC is probably a long-haired cat, and its fur feels very thin and sticky.
"Please don't rub the hair from my ears on me... Never mind." The cat-eared NPC said with a dull expression, "Anyway, I can develop all the technologies you want. Do I have to write them all? But the owner of this lab probably won't give us that much time..."
"No need," the player smiled calmly, took out the equipment he had collected from the laboratory, and motioned the cat-eared NPC to use it. "Show me."
Mao Er was silent for a moment, perhaps shocked by the player's powerful strength. "Maybe we need another experimental subject..."
The atmosphere was silent for a moment. The NPCs looked confused, and several of them stepped forward and said to the cat-eared NPC, "Let me do it."
The cat-eared NPC looked reluctant: "But..."
The snake-eyed NPC stood at the head, his eyes sad and sincere. "You know, Arima Rinku, I'm the best candidate. Seeing Chisa-chan leave here is enough for me. Anyway, E... I don't have much time left. I'm really satisfied to use my rotten life in exchange for your departure."
"Sister Juri...!" The clever loli NPC threw herself into the arms of the snake-eyed NPC, her voice choked with sobs.
"I volunteered, Qiansha. I know you're the smartest. Even if she doesn't take you away, you must never resent her." The snake-eyed NPC whispered softly in her ear. "Even if freedom is just a byproduct of our being living instruction manuals, I'm incredibly grateful for this moment of peace she brought me."
Following her relieved smile, Ming Loli NPC finally couldn't help but burst into tears. Infected by this atmosphere, the other NPCs couldn't help but start wiping away their tears.
Is there no way to have the best of both worlds? Mihara Chisa thought with tears in her eyes.
Lin Chen watched in bewilderment as the NPCs began their tragic performance. Unable to understand why they would cry for an experiment, she kindly chose not to disturb them. Instead, she strolled out the door, noticing that all the red names had disappeared. She then teleported to New York, a famous monster spawning spot, for a stroll.
I brought back a few players who controlled the red-named players who were stunned - the location of this laboratory was in the player's Xinyu Village, and it was not discovered when they directly tracked the teleportation.
When Lin Chen leisurely returned to the lab, the NPCs had calmed down. The cat-eared NPC stepped forward and said, "Excuse me for noticing you were away and secretly sorting out the equipment you left behind. I've already arranged the parameters, and we just need to start the experiment."
Lin Chen threw the red-named NPCs in front of him. Considering that the NPCs looked quite weak, he considerately broke their bones to prevent them from resisting violently.
"What is this...?" The cat-eared NPC blinked and asked hesitantly.
"Experimental subjects." Lin Chen gave them a thumbs-up and, to take care of the NPCs' concerns, he explained considerately, "They are all red names."
The clever loli NPC immediately figured out the correct answer, and excitedly whispered to the snake-eyed NPC, "That's what the unforgivable villain meant! Player must have taken our feelings into consideration and captured him!"
Lin Chen gave her a teachable look, and the clever little girl NPC immediately smiled happily, "I knew that Master Player has a kind heart!"
That’s right, that’s right. Lin Chen accepted all the compliments from the NPC. After all, she was such a good person with a moral value of 382!
The clever little girl started praising the player with sparkling eyes, piling good words like "kind-hearted" and "compassionate" on the player.
Lin Chen was flattered by the praise, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously. She stood in the middle of the laboratory with her hands on her hips, like a proud peacock.
"Hehe, let's start the experiment." She pretended to be serious and waved her hand, but the pride in her red eyes could not be hidden.
The cat-eared researcher adjusted his nonexistent glasses and deftly set about adjusting the equipment. Under his control, the delicate instruments became as docile as domesticated pets.
"First, we need to demonstrate DNA extraction..." He said as he operated, not forgetting to steal a glance at Lin Chen's reaction. "Look, after centrifugation, we can get a pure sample..."
Lin Chen stared at the clear liquid in the test tube, her brow furrowing ever deeper. This was nothing like the cool gene editing she'd imagined—no organisms mutating by simply knocking out a single DNA fragment, no explosions caused by a runaway experiment, just a bunch of boring liquids being poured back and forth.
"Too slow." She suddenly interrupted her explanation and pulled out a metal ball from her backpack. "Use this."
The cat-eared researcher took the metal ball in confusion. "What is this...?"
"Fully automatic genetic analyzer." Lin Chen pressed a button on the sphere, and the metal ball immediately unfolded into a set of sophisticated equipment. "I made it."
The lab suddenly fell silent. The clever loli NPC opened her mouth wide, the snake-eyed NPC Yu Li's clipboard clattered to the ground, and even the bound and newly awakened Red Names forgot to cry.
"Well..." The cat-eared researcher's voice trembled a little, "Since you already have this, why do you still need to learn basic operations..."
Lin Chen replied confidently, "It's all the fault of that damned planning!"
Mihara Chisa burst out laughing, then quickly covered her mouth. She looked at Mr. Player's angry expression and suddenly felt that this big man, who could easily tear down steel and concrete, was unexpectedly... cute in some ways?
Researcher Cat Ear took a deep breath and began to operate this priceless device. As the progress bar advanced, Lin Chen's system prompts kept popping up:
[Gene splicing technology understanding +5%]
【Mastering the principles of vector construction +3%】
[Congratulations! Intelligence attribute increased to 65! ]
"Five more points..." Lin Chen muttered to herself, staring at the attribute panel. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she pulled out a few more wrinkled books from her backpack: "Learn Molecular Biology in Three Days," "A Quick Guide to Gene Editing," and "Essential Experimental Techniques for Lazy People."
The player sat there and flipped through the book quickly, and the knowledge turned into code and added to her panel.
Chisa Mihara looked at Player-sama's face, as serious as an elementary school student preparing for an exam, and couldn't help but smile. She quietly tugged at Snake Eye's companion's sleeve and said, "Juri-sama, I think we might have misunderstood Player-sama..."
The snake-eyed subject looked at the white-haired figure sitting on the floor, reading at a speed that would be indistinguishable to an ordinary human, and nodded slightly. "She is indeed... very special."
After a while, Lin Chen, who had an intelligence of 70 and unlocked all the prerequisite technologies, casually decomposed all the books on the ground with one click, and rubbed them to light up the [Gene Editing] technology.
The player, who felt like he had become a peerless genius, pushed aside the cat-eared NPC in front of the experimental table and confidently raised his knife towards the red-named man lying on the surgery bed.
"Don't worry, it will be quick." Lin Chen gave a big smile to the frightened Hong Ming.
