The tall figure turned for a moment as the voice emerged, and the subtle current overflowing sound also echoed in the corner of the room with words that could not be synthesized completely. Duan Qing and Liang were aroused to alert actions. Everyone heard the sound and hurriedly jumped to both sides, and the defensive movements they raised slowly fell down as they put away their confrontation: "You, you are still alive... uh no, you are actually awake?"
"The excessive voltage broke down my body, and most of the functions in my body have lost their original function."
It seemed that only the square head was left to turn back and forth. The magic machine named Kyle II, which was also producing sparks, Jiao Jing slowly turned towards Duan Qing: "But even so, as long as the power demon Once your heart can resume functioning, I can repair the damaged unit in stages, so please don't worry."
"Well, I'm not worried about your problem. In fact, as a unique existence in this underground ruins, your recovery is normal in our hearts." Duan Qing smiled dryly and scratched his head. Duan Qing was looked at by the other party. He moved his twisting body to the side unnaturally: "We are just... uh, a little worried about your current... uh, attitude? Or should we say the relationship between us?"
"More than 90% of the combat system has been disabled, and protocols above level two, including the disciplinary unit, cannot be executed." He said this in an emotionless voice, and Kyle II's voice then resumed its original imitation. Human tone: "My system also has emergency plans for low power consumption, and I will try to deal with current problems in low power consumption in a peaceful way, and -"
"Even according to what is written in the "Human Profitability Imitation Agreement", I should not blame you for the damage I suffered, but the intruder you just killed, right? "
It said such words, and the sizzling electric sound also echoed in the ears of Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing with incomplete words. He and Xue Ling Huanbing looked at each other for a while before he stopped marveling. He took a deep breath, and at the same time slowly put away his similarly turbulent mood: "Okay, okay, this is really exciting news... In other words, you will no longer use swords and guns to find people. Have I settled the score?"
"Your crime still exists, but I am no longer able to pursue it." Kyle II replied in a calm voice: "Of course, you can also understand it in your own way, visitor."
"Well, can we continue the discussion of the next issue peacefully?" Duan Qing pouted his lips with a complicated expression, and then withdrew the glance he quietly extended from the direction of Xue Ling Huan Bing: "For example What you just said - what does the so-called 'zero life form transformation' mean?"
"In an era that you outsiders cannot know, humans have tried to transplant various life forms into other directions and uses."
Amidst the sizzling sound of electric current, the explanation voice from Kyle II seemed to become more unclear with the continuous overflow of electric current: "Transfer, grafting, transplantation, reorganization... almost all kinds of life forms." The transformation was accomplished by my creators and their kind, and most of the difficulties encountered were overcome."
"But there is one of the simplest and most complex life forms that my creators have never been able to complete and break through." When it said this, its voice paused: "Those life forms have always received their attention and have always received They have undergone their transformation, which is very subtle but perfect and exquisite. Once the transformation can be completed to perfectly fit with other life forms, all life forms, including the creators, will immediately undergo fundamental changes."
"They are called zero-type life forms, and they are existences of higher value than themselves in the minds of their creators."
Unable to make any movements, Kyle II's sparkling square head seemed to be trying to use his own words to clarify the concept that Duan Qing and the two were listening to: "Zero-like life form transformation refers to my The creators’ research and attempts in this area never stopped until my memory bank was updated.”
"Perhaps this research has been successful." Following this crackling voice, Duan Qing's deep voice also echoed in the dark corner of the space: "That is, what we see in front of us is Bar?"
Following the movements indicated by him, Xue Ling Huan Bing's sight also fell within the range of the dark metal stove that several people were facing. Strange substances that looked like they were tangled together were dimly visible. A dark field of vision emerged, extending randomly along the corners between the furnace walls toward the depths of the invisible narrow space: "Well, this is almost like an unknown substance, and it has been burnt. …”
"It should have been burnt a long time ago. It doesn't look like a recent product." Duan Qing did not try to get close to these substances, and his gaze did not shift at all: "And from their complete Judging from the unbalanced distribution, the scorching result should be an accident, a residue that goes against the will of this furnace."
"To put it simply, it was destroyed by someone, right?" Xue Ling Huan Bing, who understood, frowned and replied, "Did the owner of this place burn it himself, or was it burned by an outsider?"
"When the battle just broke out, there seemed to be no signs of invasion in this place." Duan Qing gestured to the surrounding ruins again and shook his head: "As the first person to visit this secret area after a thousand years, we almost It is certain that these items were destroyed without outsiders."
"To destroy evidence."
Wrinkling his eyebrows slightly, the gray-robed magician uttered the last few words he wanted to say, and his eyes filled with a sense of inquiry also brought Xue Ling Huan Bing's attention. On Kyle II in the center: "I have indeed never heard of the zero-human body transformation experiment, but among the human directors who once ruled this underground laboratory, there was indeed a director who was good at research on biological transformation."
"Mr. Philemon de la Voche, the representative of the de la Voche family." Seemingly understanding that the two players in front of him were waiting for their answers, the huge magic machine immediately replied: "De Although Lavoche is not the most powerful family in the dynasty, their achievements in the study of life forms are still very few that can match them."
"In other words, he is the mastermind behind all this." Duan Qing pinched his nose and then denied his conclusion: "No, it may be more accurate to use the term 'initiator' to describe it. , because he certainly did not expect that his hidden research would cause such a tragedy."
"Wait a minute, you have already determined the target?" Xue Ling Huan Bing raised her hand in front of the other party with a look of surprise: "Even if these things are really left by Mr. Dravoche, this is not the same as What does the existence of those undead creatures have to do with it? Who can explain it more clearly?"
"Have you ever heard of Biohazard? This Mr. Della Voche has most likely developed a similar virus or bacteria that can give people 'immortality.'" Duan Qing said expressionlessly. He replied: "We have no way of knowing what processes and errors occurred in the process, but this thing probably played its due role in the end, and the 'zero-type life form' that was enough to infect all underground laboratories eventually spread to every corner. , turning everyone into existences like undead creatures.”
"This is the last missing link - the reason why the humans in the recordings were attacked by the magic guards is established." Duan Qing made a clear snap of his fingers at this point: "Presumably in the eyes of those magic guards , all infected humans have become targets for cleanup.”
"But whether it's the images you saw in the leisure area or the recordings found in the central control room, the people living there seem to behave normally?" Xue Ling Huanbing's expression still looked extremely confused: "What are they? When did he become an infected human?"
"God knows when it will take effect. It may be immediately, or it may be after death." Waving his hand, Duan Qing's face began to look ugly: "With my pursuit of perfection towards those alchemy lunatics, With our understanding, the possibility of the latter should be higher.”
"In other words, the skeletons we encountered before were all transformed from the corpses of members who were members of this underground laboratory?" Xueling Huanbing glared at himself: "But that's not right either. Ah, this number simply doesn’t match up. How could there be so many people who died hundreds of meters underground like we have seen?”
"It depends on the level of rebirth of these skeletons - or how good the alchemists of the past were." Duan Qing narrowed his eyes, and Duan Qing's eyes were clearly filled with thoughts and memories. Feeling: "If viruses or bacteria are used to control corpses, then the so-called deceased will not completely die at all. They may have already transformed the structure and existence of the human bodies that reside in them, so that they can rely on Those broken bones were reassembled and perfectly 'resurrected'——"
"Maybe they can even regenerate by relying on broken bones." He subconsciously looked back at Xue Ling Huan Bing's face: "Although we have not seen deformed bone creatures until now, we cannot rule out that they have evolved to self-divide and proliferate. The possibility..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Stop making random guesses." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who hurriedly stopped these creepy words and subconsciously rubbed his arms, began to look around: "How could such a mysterious and mysterious thing exist? This must be It's all your unnecessary worries. If those unfounded things are really as powerful as you guessed, then wouldn't we have already...already..."
As if realizing something had happened, the voice of the white-haired woman who was still talking slowly stopped like a jammed tape, and the silence mixed with the sound of crackling electricity followed among several people. The darkness was filled for a long time, and was finally broken by a sigh from Duan Qing, who was also pale: "You still said I was unlucky, but now you know who is the one who likes to plant flags, right?"
"You, you don't want to be slanderous." Xue Ling Huan Bing slapped the other person angrily: "I, I was just talking casually. If everything I casually said could come true, I would have changed my career to be a prophet. Got it!"
"Then let the only authoritative person present answer this question." Duan Qing laughed involuntarily, and then bowed politely in the direction of Kyle II: "As a person present, As the only potential client, you must be able to tell what is right, right?"
"Sorry, my sensing system has also stopped working." Still shaking his square head with difficulty, Kyle II's answer made the two people present even more confused: "But the biological signs were taken before During the scan, I did not find any abnormalities in the zero-type life form realm between the two of you, but considering that you have been deep into the core area for so long, I can no longer guarantee whether your physical condition is still healthy at this moment. .”
"You'd better return to the medical area and check again."
It made such a suggestion, and the current sparks that were constantly vibrating around were also trembling up and down along with the broken electronic synthesized sound. Duan Qing, who was looking at each other, also lowered his head and spoke with Kai Er II checked the respective character panels in a way that he could not detect: "Well, it seems that there are no strange system prompts or any abnormal markings."
"Don't be too quick to be happy. Maybe it's because it hasn't taken effect yet, or it may only take effect after certain conditions are met."
"I, I, I, I, I am not afraid of such weird things! Although it may be very uncomfortable if it turns into some strange skeleton after death..."
"Yeah, maybe we can actually become immortals and have one more life after death..."
The awkward laughter slowly disappeared as the conversation between the two people became increasingly quiet, and was replaced by another period of indescribable silence: "...Hey, let's go take a look."
"Judging from your current performance, the efficacy of that thing is pretty good, right?"
"Anyway, we have nothing to do now anyway, and there are no obvious enemies or threats - Hey, Kyle II, can we pass safely?"
"Of course, as long as you remember the way."
The current in the darkness occasionally illuminated this space, and the words belonging to Kyle II also echoed among the quiet ruins as Duan Qing and Duan Qing turned their gazes: "I can no longer move, and I can't move anymore." I can’t continue to point you in the right direction.”
"You can go ahead and just leave me here."
