Chapter 268 The Sober Fool
Hearing Ye Yan's words.
Ye Xi stopped staring at these laboratories and quickly hurried towards the elevator.
At first glance, he saw blood stains on Liu Hong and Fu Ruoqing.
Ye Yan had obviously treated them.
Both of them are in good spirits.
But the blood loss still made their faces pale.
"Sister Xi!"
Liu Hong immediately stood up, shouted, and walked towards her.
Ye Xi frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
Liu Hong wiped the blood off her face and said with a wry smile, "After we separated from you, we found that the elevator was powered and could go down. We all got on the elevator together. At first, everything was fine, but then suddenly, we found that the elevator didn't stop at all after descending to the -5th floor, and continued to descend. Everyone felt something was wrong, so I quickly controlled the elevator to stop... But at that moment, our elevator was attacked by mutant zombies!"
"right!"
Fu Ruoqing's face turned pale as she continued, "There wasn't just one Level 5 mutant zombie! There were at least five. They surrounded the elevator car we were in, and they used their ice powers to freeze us. Liu Hong broke open the car and everyone was about to go out to fight, but they found ourselves in a completely unfamiliar underground cave!"
"This teammate, why is he here on the fifth floor?"
Long Liang pointed at the body of Zhou Hui's teammate and asked Liu Hong and the others.
Liu Hong was stunned for a moment and said, "That's not right... Everyone in our team is here, no one is missing, and they all entered the elevator car together..."
"This man is called Dai Zhiming!"
Fu Ruoqing's expression changed again and again. She stared at the corpse and said to the others, "He shouldn't be here..."
Ye Xi frowned even deeper and looked at Xie Ning, "Do you think there might be other spiritual creatures here, trying to control and confuse us? For example, this dead Dai Zhiming is the real Dai Zhiming, and now there's a level five mutant zombie that has infiltrated Han Chi, Pei Hongqing, and the others' team..."
Xie Ning's expression was equally solemn. "That's indeed possible. Mental power skills develop differently, and the same should apply to level five mutant zombies."
"sky……"
Ye Yan's heart was lifted up, and her face turned grim. "Doesn't this mean that Han Chi and the others are in great danger now?!"
Ye Xi's heart sank, fearing that it was more than just a danger.
She turned to look at the elevator car and asked Liu Hong and Fu Ruoqing, "Then how did you get up here?"
"Han Chi and Pei Hongqing are blocking our way. They told us to run up first to see if we can find you..."
Liu Hong was extremely anxious. "Sister Xi, Han Chi and the others are seriously injured. We need to go down and rescue them quickly!"
Ye Xi hummed, then pulled Gao Ze over and asked, "What's below the negative fifth floor?"
Gao Ze looked bewildered. "I, I don't know... Really, I've been working in the lab since I came to this company half a year ago. I don't know anything about the outside world..."
"You'd better think carefully before answering this question."
Ye Xi stared at him coldly, "You have two choices. One is to stay here and wait for death. The mutated zombies will come over here, and no one will be able to save you. The other is to come with us."
Gao Ze's face was pale, and his lips trembled: "If I go with you, I won't die?"
"It will be a slower death, or a quicker one."
“…”
Isn't that death?!
Gao Ze gritted his teeth and said with red eyes, "I'm not leaving. I want to stay here. Even if I die, I will live and die with this lab!"
"Oh. OK."
Ye Xi grabbed him and pushed him towards the elevator.
Gao Ze's expression suddenly changed. "What are you doing? Didn't you tell me to stay here?!"
"That was your choice. Now it's my choice. I'll take you down with me."
“???”
Gao Ze was completely confused, and before he could react, she tied him up tightly with vines.
No matter how he struggled, it was useless and vines were stuffed into his mouth.
Long Liang patted his shoulder and smiled sinisterly, "Boy, aren't you a little too naive? You almost killed our teammates just now, and now you want to stay out of it and run away? No way!"
“…”
Gao Ze panicked and tried to make excuses.
Ye Xike didn't have time to listen to his nonsense.
It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t want to speak now, there are plenty of ways to make him speak.
There was no one else alive in the laboratory on this floor except him. How could such a coincidence happen?
Xie Ning looked at her and said, "Bringing a living person along is a bit troublesome..."
"Um?"
Ye Xi looked at him in confusion.
Gao Ze next to him was humming again, agreeing with Xie Ning's words.
Xie Ning glanced at him and said, "My mental power can extract his memories from the past year, but there is a side effect. It will turn him into a lucid fool."
"What do you mean by a sober fool?"
"My brain knew who I was and what I was doing, but my body was out of control, twitching and I couldn't speak."
“!!!”
After hearing this, Gao Ze trembled even more violently and moaned even more intensely.
Ye Xi raised his eyebrows slightly and deliberately pulled away the vine that was blocking his mouth. "It seems you have something to say?"
"I don't want to be a fool!"
Gao Ze was terrified. "I, I'll go with you. I know how to get out, and I also know what's down there! I'll tell you everything I know!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xi and Xie Ning looked at each other.
The tacit understanding between the two was self-evident, and they kicked Gao Ze directly into the elevator.
The elevator is actually still intact.
But not everyone takes the elevator.
Ye Xi asked Xie Ning, Liu Hong, Ye Yan and Long Liang to take Gao Ze to the elevator.
She and Shen Yingcheng went down the stairs.
With her vines, the two of them wouldn't fall too slowly.
Xie Ning agreed with her suggestion and warned: "Be careful, there is a high possibility of being attacked during the descent."
"Yeah. You guys should pay more attention too."
After Ye Xi finished speaking, he asked Chen Yingcheng to go down the ladder first.
Then Xie Ning and the others completely entered the elevator and started to descend.
"What the hell is down there?"
Long Liang grabbed Gao Ze and questioned him.
Gao Ze huddled in a corner, trembling as he said, "It's Kaizhong Group's secret laboratory. We have to go down to a depth of about 100 meters..."
"What the hell are you researching?"
"I, I don't know... I just know it's something scary. They say it's a biological weapon."
“What the hell!?”
Long Liang lost his composure when he heard this and grabbed Gao Ze by the collar, "Could it be that the zombie virus was developed by your company?"
"no!"
Gao Ze immediately retorted, gritting his teeth and saying, "How could our company possibly research something so harmful?"
"Oh... So you're saying that those lampreys that almost killed our teammates, and those that controlled you and killed your colleagues, are all good guys?"
"certainly!!!"
Gao Ze reacted excitedly, "You don't even know what the lampreys we're researching are. The drugs we're researching are all anti-cancer drugs. By feeding the lampreys some drugs, their bodies will evolve to a certain extent, and the mucus they secrete will have the function of optimizing the side effects of anti-cancer drugs!"
"The lampreys are bloodthirsty because my colleague accidentally fed them a strong irritant! Our experiments have never had any problems before!"
