On the night of September 3rd, at 9:17, Gordon Gardner and Crazy Lord arrived at a secret laboratory in Kuala Lumpur. Dragon-level guard Reginald Sanchez, who was ordered to stay here, opened the door to the laboratory in accordance with Gordon's instructions and continued to stand by after the two entered.
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Crazy Lord looked around at the white walls of the laboratory: "Although I am not surprised by the weirdness of this universe, the soul-sucker you mentioned is still too beyond my imagination. .”
"Both each other, didn't a zombie craze break out in your original world? That's also unbelievable to me." Gordon stopped in front of a sign in the functional area: "You should know that the originator of all supernatural phenomena in this world is from The new alien element, divine mist, right?”
"Of course, basic knowledge of the supernatural world."
After receiving a positive reply from the Crazy Lord, Gordon continued: "Because of the influence of the divine mist, a small number of individuals of animals and plants, including humans, have awakened, just like you and me."
"There are many ways for divine mist to enter living organisms, such as respiration, contact with the outer skin, food chain transmission, etc. But one thing we have all forgotten is that as an element, divine mist itself is active."
"Similar to placing a pile of gold ingots against a wall, the wall will be slowly penetrated by gold elements in a few years. Although this reaction process is very long, it undoubtedly exists objectively."
The Crazy Lord blurted out his thoughts: "Do you think the abnormal properties of the Soul Sipper are caused by the divine mist?"
"Although there is no experimental data to prove my point of view, I can't think of any reasonable explanation other than this conclusion." Gordon locked the location of the soul-sucker on the notice board and called on the crazy Lord to move on: "This kind of non-life Examples of physical abnormalities are extremely rare, and I have only encountered this one."
"I really don't know how you found this place." At this moment, the two of them got on a downward elevator. Crazy Jue mentally calculated the amazing depth of this laboratory through the speed of the elevator's descent and the floor changes displayed on the screen.
"As you Longjun people say, when things go wrong, there must be a monster." Gordon is obviously still a China expert: "At the beginning of the drama about the four sons of the Chapman family trying to win the heir apparent, I realized that something was fishy. .”
"The four heirs have gone too far. In order to eliminate dissidents, they have even done things like the April 23 Yangon massacre. The trend will become more and more intense in the future."
"In this case, Joseph's attitude was too strange. He almost acquiesced to the fight between the four people in the same room, and seemed not to care about the internal fighting between his own flesh and blood."
The Crazy Lord did not find this matter incomprehensible: "After all, that is Joseph. The madman who built a hunting paradise on an isolated island habitually does not take blood and human life seriously."
"Your explanation is okay, but it goes against what Joseph did many years ago." Over the past few years, in order to bring down Joseph, Gordon has not let go of any piece of information related to him: "At the beginning of this century, Against the background of the raging War of Fire, Joseph still resolutely carried out large-scale in vitro fertilization for himself, and this is how his second son, Sam Chapman, and third daughter, Cecilia Chapman, were born."
"Well, this old story is not a secret in the Federation, or even in society at large. So you made up your origin and lied about being an illegitimate son who was abandoned by Joseph at that time. Some people really believe this statement. Crazy Lord shrugged: "But I still don't understand what the relationship between test-tube babies and soul-suckers is."
"The next thing is the point. You see, more than forty years ago, Joseph did not care about the cost for a healthy offspring; but today, he can calmly sit back and watch his children kill each other. Don't you think this man's Has your mentality changed too much?"
After hearing this, Crazy Lord made a joke on himself: "Haha, maybe he is a time traveler like me who borrows corpses to bring back souls."
Gordon didn't answer the question: "There must be some reason for Joseph's change. After realizing this, I tried my best to look for all possible clues."
"And you found this lab?"
The elevator arrived at the floor where the Soul Sipper was located at just this moment, and Gordon and Crazy Lord walked out one after another.
"Yes, of course this is a long-term process of following the clues. I won't go into details about the twists and turns." Judging from the tone and content of Gordon's words, even though he is extremely good at strategizing and information gathering, " "Law", he also found out the existence of the soul-sucker with great difficulty: "When I figured out the role of the soul-sucker, all the mysteries were solved."
"Xi Feng, do you think that if an emperor could live forever, he would still consider the succession to the throne?"
Crazy Lord understood instantly. "Xi Feng" was the name he used in the world before he traveled through it. In this parallel universe, only Gordon knew it.
"No ruler is willing to share or give up power, and the same goes for Joseph. The so-called heir is just a helpless person whose time is approaching." Gordon led the way, and the soul-sucker was not far away from the two of them.
Xi Feng was able to deduce the cause and effect by himself at this time: "So, according to your inference, the timeline should be like this."
"First of all, it is Joseph Chapman himself who suffers from genetic diseases, not his first wife. The paternal chromosome is the source of Trick's disease. Mrs. Chapman, who is widely rumored to be unhealthy, is just a smoke bomb, even Scapegoat.”
"Joseph was obsessed with healthy offspring, so he used in vitro fertilization to have a son and a daughter more than 40 years ago. However, they also contained genetic disease genes, but they were invisible."
"Shortly thereafter, Joseph may have obtained the Soul Sipper and learned its function, because ten years later, his clone William Chapman appeared on the scene. The problem genes in the latter's body had been edited out , is a pure body that meets Joseph’s requirements, and is also the best container for seizing the body.”
"Not bad. Except for some insignificant minor discrepancies, everything else is basically correct." Gordon praised: "I've been away for three days, and I'm looking forward to it with admiration."
"I heard Lionel say that you talked to Joseph for a while before killing him. Isn't that what you just said?"
"Well, part of it, adding together the conversation between him and me and the content of our chat just now, is the whole picture of Joseph's entire plan to seize the body and my analysis."
"Oh?" Xi Feng's face darkened, but others couldn't tell it at all (Crazy Jue is an Indian and a dark-skinned, low-caste person): "Then didn't you already know about this, but I never heard it? you said before."
Gordon laughed loudly: "Six years ago, we discussed the division of labor and cooperation. I was responsible for intelligence, and you were responsible for force."
When Gordon finished speaking, he and Xi Feng also arrived at the end of the corridor on this floor, where the soul-sucker was in the operating room at the end.
Opening the door to the operating room required a password and senior researcher permissions, neither of which Gordon had, but it did not hinder the two of them: Xi Feng took action and violently removed the three-inch-thick metal watertight door.
The space behind the door was much smaller than Gordon imagined. It was about the same size as a classroom that could accommodate forty or fifty people. The soul-sucker's huge robotic arm was fixed on the ceiling of the operating room, directly below it. base and operating table.
"Its actual appearance is surprisingly ordinary, just like the models commonly used in automobile factories." Xi Feng took a look and immediately made this evaluation.
"Don't forget, it was originally a normal object that was transformed into an abnormal item after being affected by the divine mist. Its appearance doesn't mean anything."
"Right."
In the next twenty minutes, Gordon was like a child who got a new toy, fumbling around with the Soul Seaker, while Xi Feng stood at the door of the operating room, leaning on the door frame and watching helplessly.
"Do you have to study this stuff at such a critical moment?" Xi Feng reminded: "Half of the twelve federal cabinet members already called Palmer last night, and the other half called today. .”
"Abram from Borneo County comes first, and his ambassador has already arrived in Kuala Lumpur; people from Long County, Sakura County, and Bald Eagle County are here at the latest within two days."
"Outside of the cabinet, the Lopez family in Western Europe showed a change from its usual diplomatic attitude. Coslin Lopez, the younger brother of the head of the family, Josephus, went to Baoxiang County in person. Representatives of powerful families from other places also came in droves like migratory birds. .”
"The situation in the two counties in Southeast Asia is not optimistic. There are turbulent undercurrents under the silent ice. Your integration of local forces is still too weak. To be honest, I would not be surprised at all if there is a big family in Southeast Asia raising a flag of rebellion at this moment. "
Amid internal and external troubles, Gordon still kept his wits about him and never stopped tinkering with the Soul Seaker: "I know all this. Although I have never been prepared to sit in the position of Southeast Asian lord all the time, both internal and external The overall stability of the general environment is a necessary condition for healthy development. I want to squeeze more participation chips from this land in just one year. Southeast Asia must be peaceful, at least peaceful in appearance."
"Then you're not busy dealing with government affairs, and you're still spending your precious time here?"
"Haha, I'm just solving those troubles." Gordon ended his inspection of the Soul Seaker with satisfaction: "With this magical machine, the famous families in Southeast Asia will be obedient."
"Oh, it's true what you said." Xi Feng thought he understood Gordon's plan: "The heads of the major families are naturally no longer young, and they can use the power of the soul-suckers to give themselves a vigorous body. It’s so attractive to them.”
Gordon smiled slightly: "Xi Feng, your layout is still too small."
Xi Feng, who didn't know what he meant, looked at Gordon's half-smiling face. After thinking for a moment, he exclaimed in surprise: "You want to play Tiao Bao Ji?"
"You finally thought of it." Gordon nodded: "As long as all the souls of those powerful people are replaced by our people, we can conquer the entire Southeast Asia without any blood."
"Is this also what you were inspired by what Joseph did?"
"Of course not. Before Joseph got the Soul Sipper, Southeast Asia was his own Southeast Asia. It makes no sense for him to do this."
"With all due respect, this plan does not suit your style. It is full of loopholes." Xi Feng immediately realized that Gordon's move would have endless consequences: "How do you ensure that the replaced character will not be replaced by people close to him/her? See through it? Even if you can hide it for the rest of your life, what if they escape your control..."
Xi Feng stopped talking as he spoke, because he discovered that these problems may exist, but there is no need to solve them at all.
"Anyway, the endgame of the Candidate Game will officially begin in more than a year. I had no intention of hiding it for the rest of my life." Gordon yawned and signaled Xi Feng to go home: "Four hundred and fifty days , for me...more than enough."
"Although Crazy Lord is my nickname," Xi Feng looked sideways at Gordon: "But why do I feel that you, a God-favored person, are crazier than me?"
"Hahahahaha, thank you for the compliment."
