Chapter 3541 The Ice Demon
In the laboratory, a certain light was reflected through several layers of special glass.
Everyone here has a look of nervousness and anticipation on their face.
"Great, Dr. Yaohua! The degree of distortion this time has completely met our expectations... The power output of [Chenghuang] is also quite stable! Our efforts during this period have not been in vain!"
A man spoke excitedly, even his hands were shaking with excitement - and so were the others!
"Great, we can finally achieve directional teleportation... Hurry, the gate of time and space is about to open, I want to record this historic moment!"
Unlike everyone else who was eager to try, Dr. Yaohua, who was in charge of the research, looked much calmer. "Keep an eye on the power status of each instrument. They are almost all at full power now. Make sure to cool them down!"
"Don't worry, the wires used in this trial are all brand new. I have checked them myself and there is no problem with fatigue. They can all withstand 140% of the strength. Currently, it is only 110%, which is more than enough!"
Then he saw that in the giant laboratory at the innermost part, two huge arc-shaped creations were spliced into a circular [door]... and at this moment, in the middle of the [door], a chaotic nebula was flickering!
In front of the entire huge device, there is another huge container, which is soaking the remains of a broken beast - [Cheng Huang]!
Suddenly, the chaotic nebula in the [door] suddenly expanded, and then, as if the world was created, a corner of the chaotic nebula suddenly broke open, instantly opening the barrier between different worlds!
Inside the observation room, everyone held their breath at the same time, their eyes fixed on the torn nebula… It was just a corner, but through it, they could see the blue sky on the other side.
Endless primeval forests, towering mountains...a new world!
"It's done!"
"It's done!!!"
“…Oh no, the value of [Yellow Multiplication] is starting to go haywire! Doctor, the power is overloaded! One hundred and fifty, one hundred and sixty… two hundred!!”
“…Stop it! Stop it!!!”
"what--!"
……
The scorching white light produced by the violent explosion shone through the small screen onto the faces of Professor Yaohua and Captain Miyuki.
The two were speechless for a long time... This was already the third video in the folder that they had watched in succession!
The video image you watched before is exactly the same as the one you are watching now - except for the different time marks.
Dr. [Yaohua] turned off the micro handheld game console in his hand with a gloomy face and pursed his lips... Captain Miyuki could see the other party's fear at this moment.
Because she had seen herself die three times - real deaths. Later in the video, some staff members in white protective suits came in and began to clean up the scene after the explosion.
There were no survivors, the bodies were completely burned and then bagged and taken away.
"This is... the meaning of the existence of the institute..." Dr. [Yaohua] muttered to himself, curled up in disbelief, hugged his arms tightly, and trembled slightly, "I actually... actually died a long time ago? I am just one of the many replicas here..."
She even thought that she might have a number, 009, 109, or something like that - it definitely couldn't be 001.
She would not be the first, nor the last - she would die just like Dr. Yaohua in these folders, in an experiment that seemed destined to fail.
At this moment, seeing that Dr. Yaohua was in a state of disarray and no longer had her previous bright temperament, Captain Miyuki suddenly slapped the other person in the face.
A crisp slap sounded.
Dr. Yaohua raised his head blankly.
"At least, compared to those who died in the past... you already know the truth." Captain Miyuki said in a deep voice: "You are not like them, doing an experiment that is bound to fail! Your fate has changed, hasn't it? From the moment you came into contact with this truth, you are no longer the same as those in the cabin! Remember, at least you are still alive now!"
"I am alive..." Dr. Yaohua murmured to himself, and there seemed to be a bit of spirituality in his dazed eyes.
"Yes, you are still alive!" Captain Miyuki pressed her shoulders firmly and said in a strong voice: "Remember, there is nothing more important than this."
The scattered gazes gradually gathered together, and Dr. Yaohua nodded silently.
It's impossible for her to let go of her grudges so easily, but it's better than getting caught up in endless internal friction... This is also the result that Captain Miyuki wants.
Then Dr. Yaohua resolutely got up, walked quickly to the nearest cabin, and pried open the outer shell of the cabin.
"what are you up to?"
"I want to know more. There may be useful clues in here." Dr. Yaohua said calmly: "There are so many culture chambers here. They should be connected in series with a control system... I hope we can connect them."
She pulled out a data cable from the handheld game console in her hand, plugged it directly into an interface on the cabin, and began to operate it.
Captain Miyuki saw this and muttered, "He's a tough guy."
"It was your words that made her strong again." Xiao Luo SIR said softly.
Captain Miyuki held her waist with one hand and shook her head, "She also needs to be a strong person... Don't you think so?"
Xiao Luo SIR said calmly: "She is one of them, and they all came from these capsules. Each of them is an adult. Theoretically, they don't have any past. They were born in this state... Where does their strength come from?"
Captain Miyuki couldn't help but be stunned, and even thought of a possibility because of Xiao Luo SIR's words.
Every time the experiment was conducted, all the configurations were the same - even Dr. Yaohua's memory, personality, and behavior patterns...
"She..." Captain Miyuki couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
Xiao Luo SIR said: "Actually, you are right about one thing. At least she is alive."
Captain Miyuki heaved a sigh of relief. For the surviving Dr. Yaohua, this was all she could do for now. She thought of another thing, "Mr. Luo, you said that the group tried every possible means to reproduce the experiments of that year. What exactly is it that they are trying to find? I have watched three video clips, but I didn't see anything being born. Every experiment ended in failure, right?"
"Didn't he really show up?" Xiao Luo SIR asked seriously.
Captain Miyuki tried to recall, "…every time the so-called channel was opened, the experiment went wrong and failed, and then everything was destroyed."
Xiao Luo SIR smiled slightly and said, "Then did you see any difference?"
"What's different?" Captain Miyuki frowned. She was indeed a top student who could become the captain of the General Administration. "If there is any difference, it's only that during the experiment, the things revealed behind the corner of the [Space-Time Door] that was opened are different..."
She paused for a moment and recalled carefully, "The first video showed the sea, the second video showed a vaguely ancient city... the third video showed the forest and the sky."
"Yes, the results are different every time the channel is opened." Xiao Luo Sir said at the right time: "But the personnel, data, and instruments are the same every time the experiment is carried out... Why are only the results different?"
"The opening of the [Spacetime Gate] is completely random." The person who answered this question was Dr. [Yaohua] who was tinkering with the replica capsule. "I haven't found an exact pattern for this randomness yet. But I think it's because there is a very special environment in the spacetime dimension that makes every spacetime slice in a state of constant movement. We opened the [Spacetime Gate] from [Canglan] in a fixed place, and the signal was sent out in a fixed direction. So every time the signal reached the spacetime dimension, it would hit a different spacetime slice... The opened [Spacetime Channel] would also result in a different result. I understand... That's how it is."
"...I don't understand?" Captain Miyuki couldn't help but smile bitterly and raised her hand slightly, "Speak human language!"
Dr. Yaohua took a deep breath and calmed down. "What they want is the coordinates that appeared in the initial experiment."
"The original coordinates..." Captain Miyuki was stunned. "Didn't you say that it couldn't be the same every time? Why does the group keep trying? After so many failures, they still don't give up. Is this a road to failure?"
"Probably, there is no other way." Dr. Yaohua smiled bitterly. "If it were me, with my low confidence, I would probably choose this simple and crude method... stubbornly believing that as long as all the conditions are the same, maybe it will happen again if I try again... and thus find its pattern. Besides, if it doesn't work a hundred times, can you be sure that it won't work five hundred or a thousand times?"
"I can't control these things." Captain Miyuki shrugged helplessly. "The group has money and can do whatever it wants. Anyway, you are the victim... you research institute staff... Forget it, let's not talk about these things. Try to tinker with it. Do you find anything?"
"The control system of this place is of a higher level than that of the research institute." Dr. Yaohua shook his head and said, "I have no way to access it. In the current situation, there are no conditions to crack it."
Captain Miyuki nodded, "How do you feel? You suddenly fainted just now. Do you know what happened?"
“Not sure.” Dr. Yaohua shook her head. “My medical examination reports have always been good… No, now that I think about it, perhaps those reports are not mine. According to the time recorded in the most recent video file in the folder, I should have just walked out of the cabin not long ago… five days at most.”
Five days is the real life of this young and beautiful female doctor... Captain Miyuki felt a little touched and wondered how long Dr. Yaohua's self-avoidance could last.
"Since there's nothing to gain by staying here, let's go up first." Captain Miyuki was concerned about the battle situation on Liu's side and said immediately.
But before leaving, she still took out the photo stone and recorded everything in this hidden layer - she also kept a recording talisman hidden in her arms, which recorded all the conversations just now.
"Oh, right, what should we do with this?" Captain Miyuki asked subconsciously - she pointed at the container of [Cheng Huang], "I need it for the experiment. I don't want to stay here and continue to work for the Cheap Group... Anyway, it's so painful to live, so let's just let it be free from the pain."
Dr. Yaohua came to Chenghuang's container at this time, looked at the broken body, and said in shock: "No... It's different, every time is different... It's different!"
"What did you say?" Captain Miyuki was stunned.
"Chenghuang is different, it's different!" Dr. Yaohua suddenly stretched out his hand to press against the outer shell of the container, "We don't have the ability to replicate its power, so we need to use it as a primer for every experiment... We can be the same, but it can't be the same! It's not that we can't find the original coordinates, but it makes it impossible for us to find them!"
"Didn't you say that it had lost consciousness?" Captain Miyuki frowned and hesitated, "How could it..."
"It's that the activity of consciousness is very low, not completely lost." Doctor Yaohua emphasized, and then suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiaoluo Sir, "Why can you do it? When you resonated with it, did you really see the Chenghuang Country?"
"[Rise of the Yellow River]." Xiao Luo SIR pondered and said, "Is this the coordinates that were first discovered?"
"No." Dr. Yaohua shook his head. "This is just the place I want to find the most. I don't know which coordinates the group wants to find... Chenghuang Township has always been my goal. Because I know that Chenghuang should not belong to a certain world. Since they have the ability to travel through time and space, they should exist in a space outside of a certain world. This Chenghuang is dying and incomplete... Only a complete and healthy Chenghuang can improve my research! I have been trying to communicate with its consciousness, and it has also vaguely conveyed some thoughts to me. This is a creature that will leave when it is born and return when it dies... Their hometown has the secret of the time and space dimension!"
"He's really hopeless. Even in this situation, he's still thinking about this harmful research!" Captain Miyuki couldn't help but snorted angrily.
Dr. Yaohua calmed down and said expressionlessly, "Everything about me is fake, including my memories. Even five days ago, I was just a piece of carbon water without any consciousness... Did you see the things in these cabins? I am also this kind of thing."
She pointed at her brain. "And here, the only meaning given to me is to continue this research... and my obsession with finding the [Home of the Yellow River]."
She was calm, but the finger she pointed at herself was trembling slightly and her eyes were dull.
Captain Miyuki opened her mouth, but finally avoided the other person's gaze reluctantly.
At this time, Xiao Luo SIR silently took out a shadow stone and held it in his palm... The shadow stone slowly lit up, and then floated in front of Dr. Yaohua.
"These are what I saw," he said calmly. "Some memories of it... but they are not complete, just like you."
——Just like you.
It was a very random sentence, and Dr. Yaohua was bewildered by it. However, after getting the Image Stone, her strong obsession made her subconsciously ignore the sentence.
"Thank you." She thanked him subconsciously without much emotion.
"Well." Captain Miyuki sighed helplessly. Seeing Yaohua's appearance, she was afraid that she would not be able to leave in a short time... She looked away and suddenly her face changed slightly, "It's gone!"
Xiao Luo SIR blinked.
Captain Miyuki hurriedly said: "The bodies of Jiankang's men... have disappeared!"
The members of the combat teams that were previously killed by the host of [Splitting the Sky and Breaking the Earth] were scattered around, clearly dead... However, at this moment, their bodies disappeared from the spot, leaving only the body of Deputy Captain Jiankang, which was like a dead branch.
"Not long ago, Liu Sir mentioned the disappearance of corpses..." Captain Miyuki was shocked, yet puzzled, "Why is it that only Deputy Captain Jiankang mentioned the disappearance of corpses?"
Suddenly, a terrifying pressure came out like a strong wind!
Invisibly, the huge and terrifying pressure instantly forced Captain Miyuki and Dr. Yaohua to their knees on the ground, as if they were suffocating.
They instinctively trembled with fear, "What on earth is this..."
"The last boss of the maze."
Xiao Luo SIR looked down at the time - the countdown to the deadline he requested to close the maze was fifteen minutes.
——It seems that First Mate Jack is really a master of time management?
……
……
……
……
The brown grass skirt had been thrown on the ground. First Mate Jack had his arms outstretched, with an irrepressible smile on his face, like AK.
"Finally he came out, the Ice Demon, the Corpse Snatcher..."
At first, when Bai Jun saw First Mate Jack dancing, he wanted to beat this guy to death... But when this horrible thing appeared in front of him, tearing open the door to hell with life and death, Bai Jun regretted not beating this guy to death earlier.
"You crazy person!"
As soon as the ice demon appeared, the first person he locked onto was her!
