Chapter 82 Will Baba be the only one?
The experimental subject was injected with distorted plant gene fluid. Its entire upper body was a blooming flower, and only the lower body had two human legs.
The thick stem on the upper body made a dull sound like steel bars hitting the glass door.
The glass was strong and was not broken.
This experimental subject no longer had a human head or facial features, but Jiang He could feel from its huge petals swaying wildly that it was very angry and in pain.
It wants to break out.
The arc of electric current flashed on the glass door, and the experimental subject who touched the glass door was instantly knocked unconscious by the electric shock.
Jiang He walked up to No. 2 and, in front of No. 2's horrified gaze, he clamped his jaw shut.
"I ask, you answer. Remember, if security shows up, I'll kill you first."
Number Two was still shedding tears, but his hands were hanging down and he couldn't wipe them away. He nodded rapidly when he heard this.
Jiang He pointed his chin at the unconscious experimental subject in the glass room.
Number Two's teeth chattered as he stammered, "The glass wall is connected to an electric current. When the subject touches the glass wall, the current is activated."
No wonder the experimental subjects in the glass room were all far away from the glass. Some of them, even if they were very big, would shrink their bodies and not touch the glass.
Jiang He discovered that there were display screens on the doors of the glass rooms, which showed the experimental subject's number, attributes, abilities, catalysis level, fusion success rate, and death probability.
She glanced at the display screens in each glass room, feeling somewhat relieved that she didn't see Lan Hu.
But she didn't find Lan Hu, which made her feel extremely heavy-hearted.
She asked Number Two, "Are all the prisoners brought in these days here?"
Number Two shook his head. "The prisoners who were recently sent here are all in the dorm and observation rooms. Most of the prisoners in the catalysis room have been here for a long time."
Of course, the prerequisite is that the prisoner sent in is still alive before he can come to the catalyst room.
Many test subjects died in the hibernation chamber.
Lan Hu had been brought in only a few days ago, but he was not in the hibernation room, the observation room, or the catalyst room.
Jiang He's face looked bad.
She remembered that a long time ago, when Captain Xiao was exposed, Lan Hu also had a title of premature death.
Number Two sensed the displeasure emanating from Jiang He. His teeth chattered as he hurriedly added, "But there are exceptions. Some test subjects have excellent stats and will skip the catalytic chamber and be taken to the petri dish."
"Petri dish?"
"After the test subjects mature in the catalytic chamber, they will be sent to the incubator. However, some prisoners will be selected and taken directly to the incubator. In another case, some researchers occasionally need early-stage test subjects that have not been catalyzed for experiments."
In front of an empty glass room, Number Two stopped and looked at the stretcher Jiang He was pushing. "This experimental subject needs to be put in as soon as possible."
Jiang He pushed the experimental subject into the glass room with him, first tied No. 2's wrist to his own, and then connected one of No. 2's hands.
Number Two was shaking with pain, but he didn't dare to shout out. He took off Qiu Fei's blue ring limiter.
Jiang He asked him, "Can the glass door still be opened?"
"The test subjects in catalysis are very dangerous and have great destructive power. Once the door is closed, only researchers have permission to open it, or the system will automatically open the door if the test subject has no vital signs."
Jiang He lowered his eyes and stared at Qiu Fei on the stretcher.
After sleeping for a long time, the opponent's face was pale and bloodless. Because of the genetic fluid of the mutant, many spikes grew on the surface of his skin.
Number Two cautiously reminded, "He needs to get into the catalyst room as soon as possible."
"What else?"
The other party's tone was bad, and Number Two whispered even more quietly, "He will wake up soon, but his consciousness has been taken over by the aberration. He doesn't recognize you and will wreak havoc and try to eat you."
But before any of this happens, the security guards will arrive first and eat both of these guys up.
Number Two was cautious and didn't tell the latter sentence truthfully.
Jiang He pushed Qiu Fei into the glass house.
After leaving, the glass house sensed the presence of an experimental subject inside and automatically locked with a "click".
Number Two didn't expect the other party to make a decision so quickly. He felt a little disappointed and wondered what the other party would do next.
"You, is there anything else you need me to help you with?"
Jiang He didn't respond. Her eyes passed over No. 2 and looked behind him.
The experimental subject in the glass room behind No. 2 woke up from his coma and kept scratching the ground with his scaly claws.
There is no trace of human on its body. Although it has many limbs, the limbs are slender and the body is fat, like a bunch of thin legs of an ant supporting the body of an elephant. The color of its hide is very strange, like an overturned paint box, with some super ugly colors mixed together. Its body is bumpy and uneven, and even its head is uneven and deformed.
Its butt looked like it had been bitten by something, with blood dripping and bones vaguely visible. Its head was half the size of its body and was too big. Its neck was as thin as its limbs, and the disproportionate proportions prevented it from even holding its head up.
It was in great pain, its eyes were bloodshot, hot air was coming out of its mouth, its big head banged against the ground again and again, and suddenly it turned its head and bit its flesh.
Jiang He finally understood why there were so many bloody wounds on its lower body.
Her eyes fell on the information panel on the glass.
Subject number: 75629
Subject information: Deformed human with the ability of shadow hands (Note: the ability had been stripped away when the subject was acquired). He was once devoured by a color-changing mud beast in the park. He had almost no human consciousness when he was acquired.
Injected mutant gene: Exploding Deer
Catalytic time: 46 days
Initial prediction of fusion success rate: 10%
Estimated fusion success rate: 0.1%
Estimated chance of death: 99.98%
Ghost gloves.
This experimental subject turned out to be Ghost Glove.
Jiang He didn't expect that the ghost gloves were still alive, and she didn't expect to see the ghost gloves in a place like the laboratory.
On the screen, the expected success rate of the ghost gloves' fusion suddenly jumped to 0%, and the expected death rate also became 100% at the same time.
At the moment the value changed, the ghost glove in the glass room shook its head wildly, and let out a painful howl from the depths of its throat. His eyeballs bulged outward, staring at Jiang He with painful pleading in his eyes. The next moment, his body exploded, and blood and flesh flew onto the glass, covering it with a sticky substance.
The distance was too close, and although the glass had good sound insulation, No. 2 still took two steps back in fright because of the explosion of the experimental subject.
He calmed himself down and realized that the guy next to him was not scared at all.
The other party didn't even blink at such a disgusting and brutal scene.
This guy was definitely not a pushover. He trembled with fear, terrified that he'd be shattered by the other person's hand. He said, almost flatteringly, "This subject was very special. The institute thought he'd be the first to fuse with a mutant and still retain human consciousness. He was taken to the lab two days ago and returned yesterday. Unexpectedly, he died today."
The experimental subject died so suddenly that the researchers will be depressed for a while.
Jiang He turned his gaze away from the glass wall covered in blood and flesh and asked him, "Laboratory?"
"Well, the lab has many special test subjects for researchers to study at any time." Number Two noticed that this guy was very interested in the lab and couldn't wait to send him away. He pointed the way attentively, "The lab is in Area 3. If you want to go to Area 3, you have to go through Area 2. Enter through the door over there, and when you leave the petri dish, you will be in Area 2."
There was movement in Qiu Fei's glass house.
Jiang He turned his head and found that Qiu Fei was awake.
Without the white cloth, his body was naked, and every piece of skin was covered with black thorns.
These black thorns grew out of his bones, piercing his flesh and blood, which was extremely painful. After he woke up, he kept rolling around and whimpering in pain.
As soon as he raised his eyes and saw two people in front of him, he immediately bared his teeth and pounced on Jiang He and No. 2.
But he was immediately struck by the electric current from the transparent glass and fell to the ground with smoke coming out of his body.
Jiang He glanced at the information panel on Qiu Fei's glass house.
His eyes fell on the last three lines.
Initial prediction of fusion success rate: 6%
Estimated fusion success rate: 4%
Estimated mortality rate: 32%
Qiu Fei's initial prediction was not as high as Ghost Glove's.
Jiang He discovered that his mutant injection was actually a mutant plant, a mutant thorn.
She asked Number Two, "Is the mutant gene fluid injected randomly?"
"No," Number Two said, "It's the genetic fluid that the database matches based on the prisoner's physical attributes and abilities."
Jiang He: "Why isn't the genetic fluid injected into my body showing?"
Number Two originally thought that Jiang He was a thug who broke into the laboratory from outside, but he didn't expect that the other party was actually an experimental subject.
Aren't all the experimental subjects in a dormant state when they come in?
How could the other party wake up?
Moreover, the other party was eloquent and decisive in his moves, not at all like he had been injected with genetic fluid.
Number Two was stunned and subconsciously asked, "How did you wake up?"
After he finished speaking, he realized he had asked too many questions and hurriedly said, "The genetic fluid cannot display its properties at first after injection. Only when it develops to a certain extent and enters the catalytic chamber can its properties be detected."
Just like a seed, we don’t know what kind of crop it is before it is planted in the ground. Only when it breaks through the soil can our properties be defined based on its shape.
Jiang He understood and continued to ask him: "The catalytic speed cannot be adjusted?"
The thorns on Qiu Fei's body kept growing.
At first, there were only some sparse black thorns, each one inch long. In the blink of an eye, the thorns reached two inches long, and there were more and more thorns, densely breaking through the skin. The tips of many thorns were covered with punctured flesh and blood.
Number Two shook his head. "The catalysis is all adjusted by the database based on the subject's physical condition. There's no human intervention."
Not long after being electrocuted, Qiu Fei looked up again. This time, he did not rush towards the glass, but instead looked directly at Jiang He.
His gaze made Jiang He's heart a little sour, and he called him softly, "Qiu Fei?"
Qiu Fei opened his mouth.
There were also black thorns on his face, and when he opened his mouth, black thorns shot out towards Jiang He.
But the black thorn fell when it hit the glass wall.
Having failed to hit the prey, his eyes suddenly became fierce and violent, and he growled at Jiang He again and again.
Number Two said, "After being injected with the genetic fluid, very few people can remain awake."
He was halfway through his words when he suddenly remembered that the guy in front of him was also a test subject injected with genetic fluid. He panicked and stammered, "There are exceptions. There was a test subject in the lab before who almost succeeded in fusing the genetic fluid. He got to the final step, and even Mr. Chen was ready to celebrate. Unfortunately, for some reason, the test subject was so upset that he committed suicide."
"suicide?"
"Yeah." Number Two looked regretful. "I don't know why he committed suicide."
During that period, all the researchers had bad tempers and were very picky about the staff, beating and scolding them for the slightest thing.
The mortality rate of experimental subjects during that period was also extremely high, and most of them were killed by researchers with extremely unstable mentalities.
Jiang He: "What good is a successful fusion of human and mutant genes? Is it worth it?"
Number Two was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to ask such a superficial question. But then he thought, the other party was a prisoner in the training camp, so it was normal for him to be short-sighted.
"If we can successfully fuse our genes with those of the mutants, human lifespan will reach new heights, and all the diseases humans fear, including irreversible deformities, will be cured." Number Two seemed to see a bright future for humanity, and his voice was no longer timid. "We will solve the greatest genetic challenge in human history and become pioneers in human history..."
Jiang He interrupted him, "How much is your monthly salary?"
The question was too sudden, and salary was such a private matter, how could one ask anyone casually? But Number Two still answered tactfully, "Three thousand five hundred."
"You work hard for 3500 yuan for the sake of worrying about 30 billion people."
Number Two: ...all that passion in my heart turned to ice in an instant.
Qiu Fei sprayed black thorns at No. 2 again, and it still fell after hitting the glass wall.
He scratched his hands on the ground and tried to hit the glass wall several times, but hesitated when getting close. The electric shock just now left too deep an impression on him. He stared at Jiang He and No. 2, but did not dare to get close to the glass again.
Jiang He: "What is District 2?"
Each of her questions was abrupt, with almost no connection between the previous and the next. Her sudden intrusion made Number Two very uneasy. "I don't know either. The areas are not interconnected. I've only been in the Catalysis Room and haven't been to any other areas."
Jiang He asked him again, "Have you met Mr. Chen?"
Number Two nodded, and his final round of interviews was also conducted by Mr. Chen.
"Mr. Chen is a very kind man. He asked me about my life plans, my views on the genetic fusion of humans and mutants, and what I thought of the prisoners in the training camp."
The prisoners in the training camp have committed heinous crimes and deserve to be put to death. It would be perfect to use them as experimental guinea pigs.
Number Two also has a clear life plan. He has been studying in his spare time, hoping that one day he can be promoted from an ordinary staff member to a researcher and lead a team to study gene fusion topics.
Jiang He interrupted him, "How is Mr. Chen's health? Is he a mutant or a deformed person? What are his abilities?"
Number Two then realized he had strayed from the topic. After some serious thought, he said, "Mr. Chen is confined to a wheelchair most of the time. He's been to the Catalysis Room several times, but he's never been out of it. Could he be unable to walk? I haven't heard of Mr. Chen's abilities, but I've heard that he possesses a strong mental strength. It's also said that he's lived longer than any of us. However, these are just speculations, and there's no guarantee they'll be true."
Jiang He: "How can I get from Area 1 to Area 3 through Area 2?"
Before No. 2 Melon could finish his words, the other party changed the subject again. He had to re-arrange his thinking, "I don't know about that. I haven't been there."
"How often do researchers come to the Catalysis Room?"
"Normally, they won't come unless they want a test subject for research." Speaking of this, Number Two glanced at the test subject that had exploded into a pulp. "This test subject is dead. The researcher in charge should come over to extract a sample for testing."
After starting the conversation with No. 2, Jiang He also logged into the "Extreme Evil Abyss" forum in his sea of consciousness and looked through the latest posts in the forum.
Sure enough, her questions were discussed in several posts.
I started following Qiu Fei the day he entered the training camp. I thought he would be the lucky one of the past five years, and I even bet on him winning the fight and leaving the camp. I never expected that he would leave the camp and end up in the lab.
[The prisoners in the training camp are basically destined for the training camp. Baba is the only one of the two experimental subjects who can still be awake in the laboratory. Wow, I really hope she can stay awake like this, but I know that's impossible. She was injected with three injections of genetic fluid, and she will eventually become like Qiu Fei.]
Who will take away Baba's 10 million plus points? Capitalists, please give me a clear answer. I don't want the money I saved on milk tea to end up in the pockets of someone making 3 million a day.
[Baba has so many points, who contributed them? I'll blew myself first, I only contributed snacks twice]
【I contributed two durians】
[I'm different from you guys. I gave all the breakup compensation that bastard gave me to Baba.]
[Since Baba doesn't need these points, I hope to return the same way]
[I support the above. The Abyss of Evil is not perfect in terms of rewarding. After the prisoners die, where do the rewards they received go? They are openly corrupt and don't even pay taxes. I suggest you file a joint complaint.]
…
[Do you think Baba will be the first human in history to successfully fuse with genetic fluid? ]
[Yes! I must! Baba will definitely succeed. I will never allow Baba to die before me.]
The ghost glove actually died like this. It was Zhang Yi's most precious experimental subject. Zhang Yi, the unlucky guy, must have gone crazy when he knew that the ghost glove had self-destructed.
[Hey, if it weren't for Baba, I wouldn't even want to pay attention to the lab footage. It's too gloomy.]
[The person above is just like me. I never paid attention to the lab. Although these prisoners are unforgivable, they are dissected and experimented on like guinea pigs. It is too cruel. I really hope that Baba is an exception among the experimental subjects. I am so sad that she was sent to the lab.]
【Do you like to pay attention to the laboratory?】
[Aren't you paying attention to Baba's doubts? Is Old Man Chen really a member of the royal family? Please, a kind person, please explain. I didn't pay attention to the lab before, so I didn't know Old Man Chen's identity.]
Old Man Chen is an ordinary person, an old man who is obsessed with research. I don’t see what his abilities are.
[Old man Chen is not that old, right? Why does everyone call him old man? He looks quite young to me.]
[The old man Chen you see upstairs is after cosmetic surgery. Before the surgery, he had a lot of wrinkles on his face and even age spots.]
[Hahahahaha the image of the medical doctor above has made me laugh today hahahaha]
[Old Man Chen's legs are probably the aftereffects of cosmetic surgery. I remember there was a post on the forum specifically explaining the cosmetic procedures Old Man Chen had undergone over the years. Wow, there was such a long list that I was shocked at the time.]
[Can anyone tell me where Lan Hu is? Baba has searched all the experimental subjects one by one and still can't find Lan Hu. Is Lan Hu dead? Wow, Baba must have thought Lan Hu was dead. She's such a sentimental person, she must be so sad.]
Where is Blue Tiger? Want to know?
I just browsed through all the posts about the lab on the forum, just to see what the chances are of Baba surviving. The more I read, the colder I feel. So cold, so cold. Today is the coldest day ever.
Since we've already reached the catalyst room, getting to the laboratory shouldn't be a problem. Baba will definitely be able to fight his way out on his own.
[Don't daydream upstairs. The security guards won't be as weak as these staff members. Just pray that the boss can find an escape route as soon as possible.]
Speaking of lab security, these researchers are truly inhumane.
[I’m not a human being +1, I hate labs so much]
Those who hate labs obviously lack long-term vision. These researchers in labs are working hard for the future of humanity. They are the searchlights of humanity. You are not grateful for their efforts, and yet you still say such things. How pathetic!
[Upstairs, I'll share what the boss said to you: You earn 3,000 yuan a month, but you worry about 30 billion people. Thank you for your hard work.]
[You earn 3,000 yuan a month, but you worry about 30 billion people. Thank you for your hard work, hahahahahahahahahahaha]
[Milk tea, peanuts, chocolate on the head. Could you tell me which experiment almost succeeded in fusing the genetic fluid? And why did they commit suicide?]
The time for browsing the forum is limited every day. Jiang He checked the time when he logged in and logged out immediately after five minutes.
Although there are three opportunities to enter the forum every day, the total duration is only fifteen minutes. She has to set aside another ten minutes for today. She must not miss these three opportunities to pay attention to the forum and obtain information.
Suddenly, Qiu Fei in the glass house used his teeth to pull out the long thorns on two fingers, and then used the two bloody fingers to pull out the thorns growing in his mouth.
The black thorns grew out of his bones, and when they were pulled out, blood and flesh were brought out. Number Two frowned as he watched. If Jiang He hadn't been there, he would even want to leave.
"Run." Qiu Fei's eyeballs seemed to have turned into sharp thorns, and his gaze fell directly on Jiang He's face.
His mouth was full of blood and his voice was extremely unclear, as if he was trying hard to make a sound with his throat.
"Run, quickly!"
Jiang He didn't expect him to regain consciousness. Even Number Two, who was standing next to him, was staring at Qiu Fei's screen information and said in surprise, "His fusion probability has reached 15%. Oh my god, I haven't seen such an experimental subject in a long time."
"Where's Brother Hu?" Jiang He walked a few steps to the glass and squatted down, looking at Qiu Fei: "Brother Hu also came in, but I couldn't find him."
After asking, Jiang He was shocked to realize that Qiu Fei had been dormant before entering the catalyst room and it was impossible for him to know Lan Hu's whereabouts.
Qiu Fei's face was blank for a moment, his eyes trembling, as if out of control, rolling around, "Run, run..."
Jiang He noticed that the two fingers he had just removed the thorns from had new black thorns growing on them. Even his slightly opened mouth was filled with thorns. She endured the pain in her heart and said to him firmly, "The aberration is trying to seize control of your body. Use your consciousness to fight it. As long as you can succeed, you can leave the training camp and go outside."
Qiu Fei's lips moved, and he wanted to say something.
A "ding-ding-ding" sound was heard in the catalyst room.
"It was the researcher," Number Two explained, fearing Jiang He would mistakenly think he had triggered the alarm and kill him in anger. "It must have been the explosion of the experimental subject that sent the researcher here in person. What should we do?"
