Chen Wan didn't even use Athena to take action. He kicked it directly, and the so-called infrared panel was kicked away by Chen Wan. It hit the wall inside with a "bang", making a huge noise. At the same time, the alarm sounded in the corridor of the entire 8th floor, and 20 guards with live ammunition came with it.
They saw Chen Wan and the others who had entered the infrared sensor door, and they opened fire at Chen Wan and the others, but were blocked by Athena's shield. Then they all turned into stone statues. Chen Wan and the others did not delay and continued to walk into the corridor. There were still a dozen staff members busy back and forth in the laboratory. They were obviously very confident in the security of the building, so they were still working step by step.
Chen Wan and his friends had already arrived at the end of the corridor, where an infrared sensing door was installed. Entering through this door was the real laboratory.
The people inside the lab saw someone outside and picked up the microphone, shouting, "Who are you? Stand back! This is the lab at the Tomorrow base. Everyone should stop outside the main door. How did you get in?"
Chen Wan ignored the man and pushed hard with his right foot again. With a "bang", the door was kicked open again. The flying door directly pushed the person who had just shouted out and pressed him heavily on a table in the middle of the laboratory. Only then did the people in the laboratory realize the seriousness of the matter and looked at Chen Wan and the others.
Due to tight security, no one in the laboratory carries weapons.
Chen Wan glanced around, took out his gun, and stepped inside.
Dr. Wen frowned and looked at Chen Wan and the others. "Who are you? Don't you know that outsiders are forbidden to enter or leave the laboratory? Where are the guards outside? Are they all dead? Why didn't you stop them?"
Dr. Wen said this in anger, meaning that the guards outside should come in quickly to protect them. Then there was silence outside, as if those people were really all dead.
Chen Wan looked up at him and asked, "How do you know there's no one outside? I can tell you clearly that not only is there no one on the 8th floor, but we've also eliminated everyone on the 7th floor. Ming Feng and Ming Jue, those two crazy guys, are gone too. Do you have anything else to ask?"
"Impossible. The abilities of the Ming brothers are beyond your reach." Dr. Wen took out his intercom and called Ming Feng and Ming Jue. The only response he got was the crackling sound of electricity.
Chen Wan and the others continued to walk in. She lowered her eyes slightly and saw
It was a shocking scene. A healthy male alpha was fixed to an iron bed with his limbs fixed. The man seemed to have been anesthetized and had no feeling. There was a big cut on his left chest. A beating heart was placed on the tray next to him. His blood was being continuously drawn into a bag through an instrument. There was such a large amount that even Chen Wan felt his hands and feet numb when he saw it.
She walked over quickly. The man was already dead. Chen Wan felt goosebumps all over her body. "You actually used a living person for experiments? You guys are crazy."
"Madman? What do you know? We are doing a great cause for the progress of mankind. As long as we study the relationship between psychics, zombies and mutant animals clearly, we can quickly develop drugs that promote the rapid improvement of psychics. There is also a vaccine to resist the zombie virus. As long as this vaccine is developed and injected, ordinary people will no longer have to worry about being infected by the zombie virus. We are doing this for mankind." Dr. Wen's face was grim.
He glanced at Chen Wan and the others and sneered, "Isn't this the reason why you psychics come to my lab? You want to drink the nutrients I extracted from the crystal core, right? Isn't it all for this? Don't make yourself sound so righteous. You and I are just the same."
Chen Wan shook his head coldly, "No, we are different from you. At least we are still warm-hearted people, while you are just a crazy beast."
As Chen Wan spoke, he raised his pistol.
Dr. Wen panicked at this time. "No, no, you can't kill me. I can help you superpowers improve your strength. You must trust me. I will work for you and I will be loyal to you. Don't kill me, don't kill me."
"Aren't these people who were subjected to your living experiments innocent? You beast, you lunatic." Chen Wan said as he raised his gun and killed the eloquent Dr. Wen.
The rest of the staff in the lab were completely terrified. A male alpha stammered and begged for mercy, "Please don't, don't kill us. We were forced to stay here. That man was killed by Dr. Wen. It has nothing to do with us."
The female mutant tied up on the bed on the other side seemed to have regained consciousness after the anesthetic wore off and was struggling desperately.
Chen Wan pointed his gun at several staff members and said, "Go and release these people first. Hurry up."
Several people did not dare to disobey and hurriedly released the other five survivors who were still lying in bed. However, four of them had not yet woken up. These psychics had more or less scars on their bodies, and it seemed that they had been tortured by these people.
The woman tore away the cloth that was blocking her vision and saw Chen Wan and the others, as well as Dr. Wen who had already died. She got up in a panic and shook the people on the other iron beds, but they still showed no signs of waking up.
Seeing that her companions were still angry, the woman hurriedly thanked Chen Wan and the others: "Thank you for saving me and my companions."
"No need, we just happened to come in to look for something, but the male alpha was already dead when we came in." Chen Wan said with a sigh.
"If it weren't for you, we might not have escaped today. They want to compare our hearts with those of zombies. We are all unwilling to submit to the two brothers of the Ming family, so they simply captured us for research. I don't know how much blood these people have drawn from us. They give us food, but they just treat us as blood-making machines." The woman looked coldly at the research institute staff opposite.
All of them have special abilities, but none of them are very aggressive. Most of them are abilities that promote plant growth and provide portable storage space. That's why they were easily trapped here by the Ming brothers and were treated like guinea pigs for various experiments.
Yiyi had already turned on her scanning mode and collected all the crystal cores in the laboratory, while Chen Wan and the others went to check on the five psychics in the laboratory.
"How are you guys?" Chen Wan asked.
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy. Their conditions may be worse. These people planted something unknown in their bodies a few days ago, and the wounds have just healed." The woman lowered her eyes and looked at the ground.
After a moment of silence, he looked at a man in the laboratory and said, "As for why I wasn't planted with that kind of thing, it's all thanks to Experimenter Wang. Isn't that right, Experimenter Wang?"
The man was trembling all over, and he fell to his knees in fear. "Ke Xin, I had no choice. Not letting you get infected with that zombie virus was the most leniency I could get you. If I hadn't stopped you, you would have been like those four."
"I would rather die than have you care about me. You murderer, how many people with special abilities have died in your hands? Have you counted them yourself?" The woman's name is Song Kexin. She was originally a couple with experimenter Wang. After arriving in "Tomorrow", experimenter Wang could not resist the generous remuneration of the laboratory and joined in. After Song Kexin found out, she broke up with him and was unwilling to cooperate with the atrocities of the Ming brothers, so she was caught here.
"Dr. Wen said that we did these things for the betterment of mankind, so we can't blame them at all.
For us, achieving success always requires sacrifice. People like you who were sent to the lab should feel honored." Experimenter Wang's spirits gradually became excited, and he continued, "It's you who are reckless and have ruined our plan to save humanity. You deserve to die..."
He wanted to continue speaking, but Qin Ke had already attacked Experimenter Wang, and Athena, who was beside Jiang Yanxin, also attacked with her. Athena stabbed at these people with her spear. These people did not know about Athena's passive skill. Those who could not dodge were pierced on the spot by the spear. Those who could dodge subconsciously picked up the scalpel to resist, but were blocked by the shield and turned into stone statues.
Song Kexin breathed a sigh of relief and burst into tears at the same time, desperately shaking the four men who were still sleeping.
Yiyi scanned the four people with her optical computer and said, "These four people have been mutated by the zombie virus. If we don't solve it, it will only make them suffer more when they wake up."
Song Kexin was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Yiyi: "Is there no other way?"
Yiyi shook her head. "The virus has already invaded their brain nerves. When they wake up in a few days, they will become zombies and will only threaten the safety of the rest of the people."
Jiang Yanxin nodded, understood Yiyi's meaning, and asked Athena to see the four of them off for the last time.
Cold sweat began to drip from Jiang Yanxin's forehead. She had materialized Athena twice today, and each time lasted for a long time, nearly an hour in total. When she found herself feeling unwell, Jiang Yanxin hurriedly withdrew her mental power.
Chen Wan held Jiang Yanxin in his arms, letting her lean on him to rest, and said softly, "Wife, you've worked hard."
"It's okay, just take a rest." Jiang Yanxin gave Chen Wan a weak smile.
Wei Siyu saw the interaction between Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin and secretly sighed: They have such a good relationship. When will I be able to find someone I like?
However, the sigh was only temporary, as there were still many things that Chen Wan and the others needed to deal with.
"There are quite a few people here. It's already a small base of sufficient size. If there's no one to lead it, I'm afraid there will be a second Ming brother soon." Chen Wan said with a sigh.
Wei Siyu frowned and nodded, then said, "My companions and I don't have any specific place we want to go, and Zhao Jingjing and Qiao Shirui also need to recuperate, so why don't I stay here?"
Chen Wan nodded and said with a smile, "If you become the leader of the base, there will be no problem. You can also reorganize the resources here. There are many ordinary people in the base, so you will definitely get a lot of support."
"What about you guys?" Wei Siyu asked. After just one day of getting along, Wei Siyu felt that Chen Wan and the others were very nice and trustworthy friends, so she stood up and wanted Chen Wan and the others to stay as well, so that everyone could take care of each other.
Chen Wan also thinks Wei Siyu is very good. One reason is that her character is indeed impeccable. The other reason is that Wei Siyu is the other female protagonist. She definitely has the aura of the other half of the female protagonist, and she also has the supernatural power of "immunity". If they can stay together forever, it would be a good choice. However, they still have to find the third level 3 zombie crystal core.
The process of finding the second crystal core can be said to be thrilling. They almost knocked over "Tomorrow" before they found this precious crystal core. If Wei Siyu had not been there, they would have almost turned against each other and been killed directly by Athena.
Chen Wan was a little worried about whether they could find the last crystal core successfully. Everything in the apocalypse was changing rapidly, and only by constantly improving their strength could they survive better. Mingfeng was the first control-type mutant they met, and they might encounter other people with this ability in the future. This forced Chen Wan to re-evaluate the strength of his people.
Chen Wan sighed and replied, "We still have things to do, so we can't stay forever. But we can still help out for a few days. After all, something like this has happened in the base, and it's bound to be chaotic for a few days. We'll leave once things settle down a bit."
"Alright." Wei Siyu nodded. Knowing that Chen Wan and the others still had things to do, she didn't try to persuade them to stay.
