Human life is fragile, and it is ridiculous and even more tragic to see those being slaughtered on the big screen in front of you by devices made by human hands.
"After Noah destroyed most of the data and determined that there were no living things, he activated the self-destruct system. However, this is the core part of the interior. The original design left this in place, so I was able to save it."
The projection of Dr. Yoshida in front of me said.
"Why did Noah destroy this place?"
Ma Tao then asked.
"Naturally because of the life resuscitation project, what this laboratory is studying is the royal use of human cell life resuscitation technology, and it has achieved great results in research and development. This technology can even achieve human immortality, and it can also make the heart and brain more comfortable. The dead cells in the vascular tissue are revitalized and even surpass their original properties.”
At this time, the video had finished playing. Old man Yoshida took back the projection screen, then looked at Ma Tao with a smile and said.
"You mean...your technology can bring people back to life? Have you really created a regeneration pill that can bring people back to life?"
Hearing this, Ma Tao's heart trembled. He didn't expect such a heaven-defying magic medicine to actually exist.
"Regeneration pills? You mean cell regeneration medicine, right? Of course, this technology is the greatest invention of the laboratory in the entire century, and it can even change the development trajectory of mankind."
The projection of the white-bearded old man Yoshida spoke and waved his hand to turn on the screen again. He opened a few screens and introduced to Ma Tao: "These are our precious research results."
On the screen, Ma Tao saw several laboratory workers in white coats slowly injecting some medicine into the body of the mouse, and then quietly waiting for the death of the mouse. After confirming that the mouse's electrocardiogram had completely disappeared, These mice were injected with another drug, and then careful observation began.
The video fast-forwarded, and after about ten hours, Ma Tao saw with his own eyes that the most conspicuous white rat that had been declared dead had signs of a swollen and beating heart again. This was simply unbelievable. , Of course, it is not absolute. It took a long time for one of them to show signs of life, and it took a long time for it to wake up. Two of them still did not respond at all, and in the end there was no sign of recovery.
"Just what's going on?"
Ma Tao looked at the few white mice that were taken away by the laboratory staff and asked the old man with strange expressions.
"Cell regeneration medicines are slower to recover living bodies that have died from poisoning, and the recovery effect on living bodies that have been dead for a long time is unknown. The effect is most rapid and obvious on living bodies that died of natural death or injury, and corpses that have not been dead for a long time."
The projection of the white-bearded old man Yoshida took back the video and said.
"What... do you mean the effect on living beings that have been dead for a long time is unknown?"
Hearing this sentence, Ma Tao's head buzzed, and a sense of dizziness almost made Ma Tao lose his balance and fall to the ground.
"The effect of cell regeneration medicine is determined by the degree of damage to the living body. As we all know, the longer the death time, the corpse will rot and deteriorate, which is what the saying goes, smelly. This kind of corpse cannot be restored at all."
The white-bearded old man Yoshida explained this knowledge to Ma Tao.
Ma Tao naturally understood what it meant. It was like trying to revive a guy who had turned into a pile of withered bones. Except for the gods in the sky, even with powerful technology, it would be impossible to revive a dead person, but it may not be possible to revive the flesh and bones. This is Two completely different concepts. The only thing Ma Tao is worried about now is whether Su Lanxi's body has changed after being frozen for such a long time.
"How does it work on frozen corpses?"
Ma Tao asked again quickly.
"This... we haven't really tried it yet."
In response to Ma Tao's question, the white-bearded old man Yoshida lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head with great regret and said: "Sorry, the test laboratory was destroyed before we could test the recovery of frozen and burned experimental subjects. I can’t answer your question”
"this……"
At this moment, Ma Tao hated Noah's broken computer. He didn't come early, he didn't come late, and he sabotaged it at such a critical time. He felt like this broken computer was deliberately against him.
"I'm very sorry, I can't help you."
The old face projected by the white-bearded old man Yoshida looked helplessly at Ma Tao who looked very anxious and said.
"Then...do you still have the cell regeneration potion that was the result of your experiment? Where is it?"
At this point, Ma Tao doesn't care anymore, it's business to get the regeneration pill as soon as possible.
"Unfortunately, all the cell regeneration medicines have been destroyed by Noah."
The white-bearded old man Yoshida shook his head and said.
Hearing the news was like a bolt from the blue to Ma Tao. His eyes went dark. Ma Tao couldn't help but hold on to the equipment around him and shake it twice. He kept thinking in his mind, looking at the pile of equipment around him and then slowed down. He took a breath to calm himself down and then said: "This...can I still make some cell regeneration potion?"
"It's basically impossible. In addition to the core data, I also need a lot of equipment, material decomposition technology, and cell activation technology, and these have all been destroyed by Noah at that time."
The white-bearded old man Yoshida shook his head again.
At this moment, Ma Tao couldn't wait to pick up the things around him and beat the shit out of this old man. It doesn't matter. You have been talking here for so long that there is a ball. Isn't this nonsense? Looking at the old man in front of him, Ma Tao became more and more excited. He became more and more angry, thinking that what he saw in front of him was a bunch of useless system programs. Ma Tao subconsciously wanted to use the things around him to smash the broken equipment in the room to pieces. He happened to see a broken stool next to him. , I was going to disassemble a stool leg and use it as a handy guy.
"What are you doing?"
Seemingly seeing the displeasure and anger on Ma Tao's face, the white-bearded old man Yoshida asked.
"My hometown often says, 'Anyone who likes to talk nonsense needs to be punished', don't you think so?"
Ma Tao kicked off the legs of the stool, then raised it high and prepared to smash it in the room.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute... You can't just destroy me like this, I... I can help you weaken Noah, I... I can help you fight against Noah, because Noah was created by us,... You can’t just destroy me like this! You can’t!!!”
Just when Ma Tao was looking around for something he could take advantage of and was about to take action, the annoying white-bearded old man Yoshida said another sentence that made Ma Tao pause, but soon Ma Tao was relieved again.
"If that's the case, then I should destroy you even more. If you hadn't built Noah's broken computer, how could the world be like this? I will act for heaven today. Direction, what is that thing you created? Noah, I will destroy it later too”
As Ma Tao spoke, he picked up the stool leg in his hand and planned to smash it against the computer equipment in front of him.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Wait a minute!"
The white-bearded old man Yoshida panicked and hurriedly reached out to stop Ma Tao, but he was just a virtual projection, so there was no way he could stop Ma Tao.
"Do you have anything else to say? Tell me your last words."
To be honest, part of Ma Tao's current situation is because they created Noah and harmed the whole world to eliminate harm for the people, and a large part of it is because he worked so hard to find this place for the Rebirth Pill, but he didn't expect that in the end, his joy was in vain. , nothing was obtained, and it also meant that Su Lanxi might never be saved. This huge inner gap made Ma Tao urgently need to vent his inner anger.
"No! No, wait a minute! Wait a minute! Let me tell you, there is still a cell regeneration original solution stored here!!!!"
The white-bearded old man Yoshida was really anxious. Seeing that Ma Tao no longer wanted to wait, he quickly revealed his last trump card.
Ma Tao knew that the virtual projection in front of him would not harm him at all. He was already prepared to smash the electronic projection to pieces no matter what he said. But when he heard the news Still stopped.
"What did you say...Didn't you say there was no more?..."
The stool leg stopped a few centimeters away from the computer equipment. Ma Tao kept trying to smash it, slowly turned around, looked at the projection of old man Yoshida behind him, thought for a moment, and then asked, "What is the original solution?" ?".
"The original solution is the earliest sample of cell regeneration medicine. All medicines are made based on the original solution. You promised to take me with you first, and I will give you the original cell regeneration solution."
Seeing Ma Tao stop what he was doing, the projection of the white-bearded old man Yoshida seemed to be relieved. He transformed himself into a chair, sat on it and looked at Ma Tao and said.
"Are you kidding me? This room is full of you, how can I take you away?"
Ma Tao looked at nearly half of the 40 to 50 square meters of electronic equipment and dense cable connections and said.
"I can compress myself into several hard drives. You just need to take me away and find a place with a network connection to connect to it. Otherwise, I will not give you the cell regeneration solution."
Dr. Yoshida, an old man with a white beard, looked at Ma Tao with a smile and said.
"I don't need you to give it. You seem to have forgotten that you are just a machine at this time. What can you do to me? Since you dare to say that the cell regeneration potion is in your hand, it must be in this room. I need to give it to you." All the electronic equipment in the cell has been dismantled. I can find the cell regeneration solution you mentioned without you."
Ma Tao looked at the smart computer projector with a sneer and said.
"you……"
The virtual projection of the white-bearded old man Yoshida was suddenly speechless. He paused for a long time and then began to plead: "I know I was wrong. I beg you to take me away. I don't want to be imprisoned here anymore. This and Prison makes no difference..."
"Hand over the original cell regeneration solution"
Ma Tao didn't care about his performance at all, as if he was watching a 3D movie.
Helplessly, Dr. Yoshida's virtual projection knew that it could not control the opponent and gave up resistance.
A piece of equipment in the secret room suddenly started running, and then the platform in the middle slowly opened, and a colorless, odorless, completely transparent glass sealed bottle slowly rose up. On the bottle, there were five special characters "Cell Regeneration Original Solution" conspicuous.
"Re...sheng...wan..."
Ma Tao's eyes reflected the slowly rising bottle of regeneration pills, and he was so excited that he burst into tears. The hard work and silent waiting were about to pass.
Looking at the colorless and odorless potion bottle in his hand, this magical medicine that countless people dream of, Ma Tao does not feel excited, but feels very nervous. This thing is the goal that countless people have been looking for their whole life, and even many people He had not seen even a single glance until his death, but at this moment, this magical medicine was in his hands. Once this news was known to others, Ma Tao believed that he would become the target of plunder by all mankind in an instant, no less than The most valuable bounty head.
Ma Tao's other hand held a system disk with extra large memory. What was stored in it was Dr. Yoshida's system, and it was compressed. Otherwise, it would not be saved at all.
Dr. Yoshida's virtual projection finally gave in, handed it over to Ma Tao Regeneration Pill, and compressed itself into a memory disk. To be honest, this system is awesome. It can be said that it is like a djinn in a magic lamp. Just the same, because he had no choice.
"Su Lanyu, look, I've found the medicine that can revive your sister."
When Ma Tao walked out of the secret room, he held the regeneration pill and the Yoshida system disk in his hand. After taking it out, he was very excited and wanted to tell Su Lanyu the news. However, after shouting twice, no one in this huge laboratory responded to him. Ma Tao was a little confused.
"Su Lanyu?"
Because he is used to the security of nothing here, Ma Tao is not carrying weapons at the moment, nor is he wearing a power mecha. When he did not get a response from Su Lanyu, the first thing Ma Tao could think of was whether she had encountered something unexpected. Almost Subconsciously, Ma Tao looked around him, but found that there was nothing that could be used as a weapon. After thinking about it, Ma Tao put the regeneration pill in his hand on the ground, and then raised the only hard object in his hand. Using a memory disk as a weapon, he slowly moved towards the large laboratory on the other side of the corridor.
When he was about to approach the corner, Ma Taomao lowered his waist and took a quick look inside.
There were no people or monsters, the laboratory was still the same, nothing had changed, except Su Lanyu who was missing.
Seeing that there was no danger, Ma Tao became even more confused. What... is this?
After searching around the laboratory, Su Lanyu seemed to have evaporated and disappeared completely. Ma Tao even thought that she had opened the door to the outside and left, but after pulling hard twice, he found that It was still locked, and Ma Tao was even more confused, but soon, Ma Tao discovered another thing, that is, among the pile of clothes and equipment that he and Su Lanyu put together, all of Su Lanyu's things were missing.
"how so?"
Smelling the fragrance of the woman's hair still lingering on the bed, Ma Tao once wondered if he had been hallucinating in the past few days. If all of this was false, what was going on? If all this is true, then where did Su Lanyu go?
Suddenly, Ma Tao looked in the direction of the basement, because there was a second way to leave, time and space teleportation.
Thinking of this, Ma Tao no longer hesitated, put on the equipment as quickly as possible, then turned back to retrieve the regeneration pills, carefully put them away, as if walking through the basement.
Not waiting for Ma Tao yet
Walking downstairs, a piece of paper stuck on the wall caught Ma Tao's eyes.
Ma Tao remembered clearly that when they came here before, there was no such paper on the stairs. He stretched out his hand and tore it off, only to see a few lines of elegant small words written on the paper.
"Ma Tao, I'm leaving, don't miss me. The two days here are the happiest times in my life. I will never regret it. One last thing to ask you. Forget me. Just pretend that I don't show up again." However, if you can get the regeneration pill, you must resurrect my sister. From now on, just treat her as if she doesn’t have me as her sister. If you don’t get the regeneration pill, please live well by yourself. The access card that opens the password door is hidden by me. It's up, you can only wait until the next power outage to search, so don't think about chasing me, because I won't give you this chance,"
Looking at the note in his hand, Ma Tao was furious. There was a vague sense of determination in the words of the letter. He knew that this stupid woman must have got into trouble again, and there was no guarantee that she would just go out. If you go to find Zhen Zhen and go all out to do it alone, you will definitely die.
Thinking of this in his heart, Ma Tao suddenly became anxious. The only thought in his mind was to quickly find the access card hidden by this stupid woman, and he started looking around.
According to what Su Lanyu said on the envelope, it can only be seen when there is a power outage. This means that the access card must be displayed on the surface, but in an inconspicuous position. However, this huge laboratory has a vast space. If you want to It was not easy to find a card that was no bigger than a palm. After searching for almost two hours, Ma Tao found nothing and finally gave up.
The boring wait was the longest and most torturous. During this period, Ma Tao thought about many things. Only when he was alone and quiet could he have such an opportunity to recall that he came to this place. In this world for such a long time, the people I have come into contact with are both good and bad, and the things I have experienced are also good and bad. Everything seems to be arranged and destined to happen. , Ma Tao couldn't help but wonder, why did he come to this world? And who controlled all of this.
A long time passed, and the darkness finally fell. Ma Tao finally found a long fluorescent green strip about the size of a toothpick on the bookcase next to the wall. After noticing this, , Ma Tao, who had been waiting for a long time, ran over quickly, took a book from the bookcase, opened it, and a green card fell to the ground.
After looking at the card on the ground, Ma Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly, bent down to pick it up, and then eagerly came to the password door and handed over the access card.
'drop! '
Bah!
The red light on the coded door went out and turned green. Then, the thick alloy coded door slowly opened a gap, followed by a dark and rotten smell, which Ma Tao was all too familiar with. This smell is the smell left behind after death, representing countless deaths and decay.
Exhaling a breath, Ma Tao adjusted his mind and checked the neutron cannon in his hand again. After confirming that there was no problem, he grabbed the handle of the iron door with a steel-clawed hand and pressed hard. The password door had been locked for a long time. Because no one opened it, it was a little rusty. The door bolt made a creaking sound, but it was only opened by Ma Tao to a gap of less than ten centimeters. Ma Tao actually didn't pull the door! ! !
Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but put more force on his hands. At the same time, the steel suit mecha felt the user's force, and started the thruster to assist. With Ma Tao's full force and the action of the thruster, The coded door creaked and finally opened a gap that allowed an adult to pass through. A very unpleasant and disgusting smell of decay swept through.
Facing the darkness ahead, Ma Tao quickly turned on the lighting equipment and prepared to walk in, but the next second, Ma Tao was stunned.
wrong!
The gap that can just be opened in this iron gate is so small that it is completely impossible for an adult to pass through, even Su Lanyu!
If Ma Tao didn't dare to say it before, but after having skin-to-skin contact with Su Lanyu, Ma Tao concluded that it was absolutely impossible for her to pass through the gap that the code door just opened. Another point was that the burst of sound from the code door just opened. There was a heart-breaking and loud rusting sound of the door bolt, especially when she had to use the steel suit mecha to open it. Su Lanyu was a woman, no matter how strong she was, it was absolutely impossible for her to overpower the mecha. You are talking in such a loud voice, how can you not hear it?
Thinking of this, Ma Tao immediately realized that it was absolutely impossible for Su Lanyu to leave through this door, but if not, how did she leave?
While his thoughts were racing, Ma Tao couldn't help but look towards the direction of the basement again. Almost without thinking, Ma Tao activated the steel suit power mecha with full output, and used the fastest speed to cross all the obstacles. Came to the basement.
Before he could reach the space-time tunnel equipment, Ma Tao had already felt a huge tearing force of air from inside. This scene felt familiar to Ma Tao. This was how he came here.
Sure enough, in response to the increasing pulling force, Ma Tao came to the basement and saw an unbelievable scene. The broken space-time tunnel device had actually started. The light waves in the middle of the device had formed and were going crazy. Devouring everything around it, it swept up the papers in the entire basement, forming a whirlwind.
Ma Tao looked at his communication watch. The power outage was about to end, and everything was about to be restored. Time was running out, so he had no time to think too much. He jumped up against the vortex that was still raging in the space-time tunnel, and was pulled by the huge pulling force. Below, Ma Tao, wearing a powered mecha and weighing nearly two hundred kilograms, flew sideways toward the gravitational vortex in the middle.
Almost at the moment Ma Tao was sucked into the space-time tunnel, the power in the laboratory was restored again. Ma Tao left the legendary and mysterious Yoshida Institute of Life Sciences with a belly full of questions and confusion.
Ah~~~~
Somewhere in the endless prairie, accompanied by a man's crazy howling, a ray of white light descended on the grassland. Immediately afterwards, a man in a steel-clad mecha held a neutron cannon in his hand, with a panicked expression on his face. The man who was looking around was teleported here. Almost at the moment when his feet landed, this man was there in a standard individual combat posture. At the same time, he held the weapon in his hand and his brain was still in a panic. , and did not forget to observe the situation around him immediately. It took more than ten seconds. After confirming that the surrounding environment was safe, the man breathed a sigh of relief, finally relaxed his highly tense nerves, and directly Sitting on the black soil full of weeds, his hands with steel claws exerted a little force and grabbed a handful of weeds on the ground, pulling out a large piece of black mud. I saw that this man was not too dirty. , actually held it to his nose and smelled it greedily twice, then collapsed directly on the grass with satisfaction, looked at the blue sky, and smiled.
"I, Ma Tao...are back again..."
