Behind the bronze gate is not hell, but a scene worse than hell.
The foul air was like an invisible giant hand, strangling Mou Xuan's throat and making him almost vomit.
The sticky liquid dripped down the walls and gathered on the ground into horrifying pools of blood.
The walls were covered with twisted tumors that looked like countless eyes peering at him in the darkness, emitting a disturbing red light.
"Hehe, these old dogs in the Governor's Office really know how to pick a place for themselves." Mou Xuan sneered, took out a gas mask from his backpack and put it on, then put on a special isolation suit, and then he felt a little better.
"Fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise I would have vomited all over the floor."
He walked carefully through this disgusting hell of flesh and blood, his feet stepping on a sticky unknown liquid that made a "puff puff" sound, just like popping ripe grapes.
After finding the secret laboratory in the Governor's Mansion, Mou Xuan took out the blood sample from volunteer Tao, took a deep breath, and slowly injected the blood into his own veins.
"Fortune and honor are sought in danger, let's fight!"
“If I die, take Chen Yao’s…” Before he could finish his words, Mou Xuan felt a burning pain spreading from deep in his blood vessels, like countless fire snakes running around in his body.
He looked down and saw that his normal blood vessels burst like spider webs, and golden lines were wriggling under his skin like living things, like some kind of ancient curse.
"Fuck! What's going on?!" Mou Xuan couldn't help but swear.
Professor Meng, who was standing by, saw this and his face changed drastically. He frantically injected a tranquilizer into Mou Xuan's arm.
"You are living with the virus! Are you crazy?!"
Just then, the door of the laboratory was slammed open, and Qin Medical Supplies Seeker rushed in breathlessly, with uncontrollable excitement on his face.
"I found it on the third floor underground of the Governor's Mansion! A living specimen!"
In his hands he held a rusty bronze tripod, which was engraved with strange runes and exuded a frightening aura.
As soon as the bronze tripod landed on the ground, it began to vibrate violently. A thick black mist gushed out from the mouth of the tripod, instantly filling the entire laboratory, making a shrill hissing sound, like countless wronged souls howling.
Mou Xuan ignored the severe pain in his body, tore off his blood-stained isolation suit, and wrapped the bronze tripod tightly.
"Activate the 0.3 second ability, Researcher Zou, catch the crystal in the cauldron!"
Time seemed to stand still at this moment. The lights in the laboratory flickered and then returned to normal.
Golden lines appeared in Mou Xuan's pupils, and his eyes became deep and cold.
"The virus... is imitating my memory... Chen Yao..."
He suddenly grabbed Researcher Zou's hair and pressed her hard in front of the microscope.
"Look! The lattice structure! It's completely synchronized with the death countdown of her virus sample!"
Professor Meng suddenly took out a photo from his pocket and stuck it hard on the bronze tripod.
"They knew the virus would mutate! This is Meng Xie, the governor of the alliance!"
In the photo, a man with a sinister face is smiling meaningfully at the camera, which is chilling.
Mou Xuan bit his tongue and smeared the blood on Meng Xie's photo.
The bronze tripod suddenly vibrated violently, and a dazzling white light surged out of the tripod, condensing into a holographic image of Shen Yao.
"She... is still alive..." Mu Xuan's voice trembled, "In... a quantum state..."
He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the illusory figure, but could only watch it dissipate before his eyes.
Qin suddenly covered his chest...
Qin groaned, covered his chest fiercely, and fell straight down.
The protective suit on his body was sizzling as if it had been doused with sulfuric acid, and strange golden lines were spreading rapidly like ivy, wrapping up his entire body.
"Hurry... go to area B... the freezer..." Qin's voice was intermittent, like an old radio with a stuck tape, and every word was accompanied by the hissing sound of electricity.
Before he finished speaking, his body suddenly disintegrated and turned into a pile of golden ashes, which scattered all over the ground like a weathered sand sculpture.
The air was filled with a burnt smell mixed with a metallic odor, which was nauseating.
Mou Xuan frowned, grabbed the ashes on the ground, twisted them between his fingertips, and felt cold, like frost and snow in winter.
His eyes were as sharp as torches, staring at the golden powder on the ground, as if he was trying to find some clues from it.
"Area B...Freezer...Could it be..." He raised his head suddenly and the cauldron made a buzzing sound, as if responding to his action.
"Find the coordinates of Chen Yao's cryochamber, 0.7 seconds!" Mou Xuan growled, and golden lines climbed up his arms like tiny golden snakes, interweaving on his face to form a strange mask.
The bronze tripod trembled violently, and the runes on the tripod seemed to come alive, flashing dazzling light and projecting a complex three-dimensional map.
On the map, a flashing red dot is particularly eye-catching.
"Found it..." Mou Xuan stretched out his hand, his fingertips hovering above the red dot, his heart beating wildly as if it was about to burst through his chest.
"Yaoyao, wait for me..." He grabbed the fragments of the bronze tripod...
