Chapter 187: The Sinful Underground City
However, Li Xingye did not take his life directly as he expected.
The vines stopped at the last moment.
Seeing the man's face that was unable to hide his disappointment, Li Xingye suddenly sneered: "Why, you look disappointed that you didn't die in my hands?"
The man's expression changed slightly, but he still responded, "What?"
As Chi Wan listened to Li Xingye's words, a light bulb went off in his head, and he suddenly understood what was strange.
Would Li Mingyu, a man who had carefully hidden himself for so many years and protected himself so well, really appear in front of Li Xingye so defenselessly?
Chi Wan didn't believe that he didn't have any backup plan, even though he felt he could completely control everything.
Everything outside the base might be plan A, or it might just be a prelude to let Li Xingye let down his guard.
And Li Mingyu's real purpose seems to be to use Li Xingye to kill the people in front of him!
Chi Wan narrowed his eyes, looking at the man who had his head down and looked dejected, saying "I just want to die early and be reborn soon", and was a little confused as to why Li Mingyu made it so obvious.
It might be true that this man had part of Li Mingyu's brain in his head, but the reason why he wanted to die didn't seem right.
What exactly does he want to do?
Before Chi Wan could figure out Li Mingyu's real purpose, a slight noise suddenly occurred in the laboratory.
Li Xingye looked suddenly at the secret door that had been opened.
"He just wants to buy time." A female voice came from the secret door.
Chi Wan felt Li Xingye's body suddenly stiffen. She looked at the woman who walked out of the secret door and suddenly understood her identity.
He had the same face as the clone zombies outside, but his eyes were full of kindness when he looked at Li Xingye.
Li Xingye seemed to be controlled. He stared at the woman who had walked completely into the light in disbelief. After a long while, he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Mom..."
The woman looked like she was crying, but there were no tears in her eyes.
She rushed over and hugged Li Xingye, but Chi Wan noticed that she deliberately retracted her nails while hugging him, as if she was worried about hurting Li Xingye.
Is this the real body of Li Xingye’s mother Gu Peijun?
Li Xingye froze and patted Gu Peijun's back awkwardly. When he spoke again, he was much more fluent: "Who were you back then..."
Gu Peijun shook her head gently: "We'll talk about this later."
She walked towards the man who "wanted to die".
When that person saw Gu Peijun appear, he hid in the corner with a look of fear on his face and never mentioned anything like "die quickly" again.
Seeing that Gu Peijun was unwilling to let him go, he finally screamed, "Peijun!! Do you really have to kill me like this?"
Chi Wan and Li Xingye looked at this person at the same time, and the thought "as expected" flashed through their minds.
But Chi Wan still didn’t understand, since a part of Li Mingyu’s body was indeed living in him, why did he insist on letting Li Xingye kill him?
Isn’t he afraid that Li Xingye will really take action?
Gu Peijun sneered: "Li Mingyu, it's no use stalling for time. I have already destroyed what you are waiting for."
Li Mingyu looked at Gu Peijun in shock, and his face no longer had the exaggerated urgency he had before: "Impossible! How do you know where it is?! How did you escape!?"
Gu Peijun saw Li Mingyu's expression and seemed to be in a good mood: "You are curious, right? Then take these questions with you... Go to hell!"
Almost the moment she opened her mouth, Li Mingyu realized something was wrong.
He didn't know what mechanism he pressed, but the floor of the cage opened directly, and he fell down, avoiding Gu Peijun's suddenly growing nails.
Those sharp nails that glow with a faint blue light are probably enough to kill someone just by touching them.
At this point, Li Xingye and Chi Wan could only guess what Li Mingyu was planning, but they couldn't piece them together.
Li Mingyu's escape seemed to be within Gu Peijun's expectations. At least she did not act too anxiously and did not even chase him immediately.
As Li Mingyu escaped, the modified people who were still groaning in the cages also stopped breathing at the same time. Then, the dead bodies crawled up again with a "ho ho" sound, and completely turned into zombies.
Chi Wan frowned. How many sins had Li Mingyu committed in this underground world?
Although Li Xingye wanted to kill Li Mingyu directly, he looked at Gu Peijun who was only staring at him, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "What did Li Mingyu do?"
Gu Peijun carefully put away her nails, took Li Xingye's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will tell you one by one. Come with me."
As she spoke, she looked at Chi Wan who was standing beside her, her expression somewhat hesitant: "You are the girl who saved A Ye, right? I..."
It can be seen that she seemed to want to be closer to Chi Wan, but she didn't dare to get too close to her, as if she was worried that Chi Wan would dislike her.
Chi Wan smiled and took her arm: "Aunt Gu, let's go, I really want to know what Li Mingyu wants to do."
Gu Peijun's originally conflicted expression suddenly relaxed, and she led the two of them towards the secret door from which she came out.
After walking through the secret door, I realized that the laboratory I just saw was just the tip of the iceberg underground.
Li Mingyu turned the entire underground into an underground city that is as big as the Dawn Base!
There is a huge space behind the secret door, and an entire wall is covered with small surveillance windows.
It was also through these surveillances that the two realized that Li Mingyu had done much more than they had imagined over the years.
From the surveillance footage, a rough estimate shows that the number of people imprisoned in various underground laboratories may have exceeded tens of thousands.
Not to mention the people who died in the experiments, or turned into zombies or even fertilizer.
In addition to body modification and superpower experiments, there are also many genetic level studies.
They also saw various artificial reproductive systems in the cloning laboratory. Gu Peijun's clones should have come from here.
This dungeon full of sin really refreshed Chi Wan's cognition. She looked at those people who were raised like livestock and clenched her fists involuntarily.
"How can there be such disgusting people in the world..."
Hearing Chi Wan's mumbling, Gu Peijun looked at the person running away like a lost dog in the surveillance video and sneered, "A man who can use his pregnant wife as an experimental subject, in the end times of moral collapse, it's not surprising that he would do anything."
Hearing Gu Peijun's words, Chi Wan was surprised and asked, "Did he start studying the direction of genetic evolution so long ago? But how could such experiments be allowed at that time?"
