It is another open and bright underground building, decorated with lights everywhere.
In the entire room, there was only a nutrition tank filled with sky-blue liquid medicine standing in the center. A young and strong man was soaked in it naked, his eyes with sparkling color open for a long time, because of the nourishment of the medicine, and No need to blink.
He obviously has a well-proportioned and tall frame. His muscles are like pieces of carefully polished marble, tightly arranged and attached to the bones. His thick platinum hair floats in the liquid like seaweed.
The four walls are divided into many display screens of the same size by grid-like dotted lines. Whichever direction the man moves his gaze, the still picture on that display screen will continue to play immediately.
Each screen corresponds to a hearty battle. Some of them are fighting competitions that were once well-known and talked about in the Violet State, but many more are stolen photos collected from all over the world.
The battle venues are all kinds of strange, including ancient caves covered with moss, dancing with coral reefs under the dark deep sea, being confined to a small Eight Immortals table, and fighting in a desert oasis under a hail of bullets.
There are one-on-one, one-on-many, group melee, and countless fighting skills on display.
If these videos are carefully edited and watched in a fast and slow order, many viewers may be hooked, with adrenaline soaring and laughing excitedly.
However, if there is no post-editing modification like this, the camera will sometimes shake and rotate violently, and the viewing quality will be greatly reduced.
Even if you are a fan of fighting games, you will be satisfied if you watch one or two games in a day. If you watch more games, you will feel bored.
If they were forced to watch the videos played on ten screens in one day, they would have to wait at least half a month before they could regain their interest in fighting.
And this man has continued to live like this for more than a thousand days and nights. Every day, when the prescribed time comes to rest, those images and sounds will linger in his senses.
He's not crazy yet, he's even calm.
A screen in the middle of the east wall is playing a battle that took place in the coastal forests of Donghua Ancient Kingdom last year.
The soft-looking girl is floating in the air in a dark blue uniform. Her chest is slightly raised, her work ID is hung with a blue ribbon, and she can also see the three words "Xu Xiaorou" written in the name column. It's a ranger.
But her uniform is obviously affiliated with the "Red Star War Beast", an international supernatural disaster investigation organization.
The truck she was chasing contained a four-horned white deer with shiny fur. Several poachers jumped out of the car. A stick fighter wearing a red turban took the lead and struck out with a stick to create a vacuum air blade. .
But with just one glance from Xu Xiaorou, his whole body turned into a stiff ice sculpture and fell to the ground.
Icicles broke out of the ground and pushed against the chassis of the truck, causing the four wheels to hang in the air and the body to rise rapidly.
The few remaining poachers lost their desperate confidence and wanted to escape, but their movements were so fast that they could not be seen. When the girl's gaze swept across, the chill returned from the soul to the body, and they all turned into ice sculptures.
At the end of the video, a hoarse voice is admonishing.
"Xiaorou, why are you using Shocking Tribulation again? I've already sent you to the branch and you haven't restrained yourself. These people dared to cross the border illegally to catch the spirit beasts. Originally, there was no hope. But once you used Shocking Tribulation, everything changed. Being in a vegetative state is a waste of our funds..."
The girl's power is exquisite, but it is obviously very different from ordinary fighting styles. You can't learn any special skills just by watching videos.
The man's eyes only stayed on the screen for a short while, and then turned to the videos of other fighters.
While he was studying carefully, his pupils suddenly shrank, and then his eyes widened.
Originally suspended in the liquid, his body was still upright. Then his muscles relaxed and he bowed his head, as if he had turned into a dead fish.
The alarm outside the nutrient tank immediately sounded.
The energetic old scholar pushed open the door and walked quickly to the nutrition tank. After just one glance, he was shocked.
The young man's originally stable vital signs dropped sharply, almost falling into a straight line, no different from a corpse.
However, when this nutrition tank was originally built, a similar situation was considered. The scholar was busy tapping on the operating platform with his fingers like flying fingers. First, he injected an ultra-high-concentration cardiotonic shot directly into it, and then directed it to the brain. Electrotherapeutic stimulation.
The flabby body began to tremble. Two minutes later, he blinked slowly, and a look of horror suddenly appeared on his face.
The scholar standing outside the nutrition tank felt his body stiffen when he looked at him like that. His bent fingers stopped on the next button, but he did not press it for a long time, and he did not dare to make any move.
Scholars can guess that the other party is currently trapped in some kind of chaotic thinking mixed with fear. If he acts rashly, he may be stimulated and he will attack directly and attack the surrounding targets indiscriminately.
The nervousness made the scholar forget to breathe. Just as his face became redder and redder and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, the expression on the face of the young man in the nutrition tank finally calmed down.
The man straightened his thoughts, opened his mouth, and spit out a series of bubbles.
The scholar hurriedly operated, and the height of the blue liquid dropped rapidly, simultaneously filling it with oxygen-rich air. Then, with the sound of mechanical exhaust, he opened the tempered glass door on one side of the culture tank.
The young man - Owen stepped out.
"Boss, what happened to you just now?"
The scholar hurriedly came over and handed him a dry towel.
Owen wiped his face, then unfolded the towel, rubbed his hair, and said, "Taste death, ah! It's really a terrifying feeling."
There was a look of memory on his face, his movements paused slightly, and goosebumps appeared on his arms that were so smooth that no pores could be seen. After a few seconds, he continued, "No wonder ancient Buddhism said that there is great terror between life and death. Even if I am not completely dead, it is at least a hundred times better than those activities that I used to deliberately pursue excitement."
The scholar asked curiously: "Is the original body of the boss dead? I have long wanted to say that the gap between your body and this body is getting bigger and bigger, just like the gap between sardines and whales. The difference is that the death of that body can actually have such a serious impact on this body?"
"That is a spiritual experience, and thanks to the empathy spell provided by Shenwu Guiyi, my two bodies' senses and memories are completely connected. This body will accept the feelings of that body without resistance. Feelings.”
Owen nodded his forehead, "So it's like my brain here was deceived by the memory on the other end and actively attacked this body."
After the cloning technology achieved certain results, Owen divided his brain and used the separated part of the brain tissue and the magic data of Shenwu Guiyi to create a clone.
Different from the relationship between other clones and the original body, Owen's clone and his original body have shared the brain and all memories from the beginning, and even the senses are connected by magic.
Although he only has one self-awareness, he can do completely different things in two places. One is to indulge in enjoyment, harm his health and degenerate wantonly, while the other is to restrain his desires and devote all his energy to the pursuit of better things. Excellent fighting skills.
But currently, and even for a foreseeable period of time in the future, he only has one body left.
Owen threw away the towel and led the scholar out of the room surrounded by screens.
It's just that you have stepped through a portal, as if you have changed the world.
The decoration style on the other side of the wall is by no means dull and dull white, but extremely luxurious and gorgeous. The bonsai rockery in the corner is carved from a whole piece of warm topaz stone, with agate and emerald. Small carved animals are attached to it for decoration.
The ground is covered with a red carpet, surrounded by splendor, and hung with many oil painting-style portraits. The busts of curly-haired gentlemen dressed similarly add a touch of aristocratic castle-like temperament to the place.
There were guards and maids in suits and ties standing everywhere. Owen's body was not indulged in enjoyment, but there were many people at his disposal.
He lay down on the sofa, raised his feet and folded them on the table. Someone immediately brought him clothes on a cart.
Owen reached out and separated the maid, grabbed the clothes and pants and threw them on the carpet next to him. He stretched his right hand to the other side and hooked his fingers.
The guard brought over the opened tablet, and was directed by Owen to stand across the table and start a video communication.
It took a while for the person on the other end to choose to connect. What was displayed on the screen was a handsome and handsome young Asian man, but his temples were gray and there was a trace of black under each eye.
"Owen, what's going on?"
Shenwu Guiyi frowned when he saw Owen sitting naked on his back, "Your body is usually extremely restrained, but you are going to see me like this today. Could it be that the old body died and all the senses were returned to one place?" Already?"
Owen smiled and clapped his hands: "As expected of you, you can guess the current situation from this little detail."
Shenwu Guiyi asked: "Who did it?"
"Nominally, they are three people hired by Violet's bunch of old losers, plus a good marketer who is brave enough to do what is right..."
Owen thought about how to describe Guan Luoyang, and the smile on his face couldn't help but become more conspicuous, "He is an international friend who cares very much about the dignity of fighters."
As soon as Shenwu Gui saw his appearance, he knew that the last person who paused in speech was already the target of his anger, so he said: "Then it seems that I have to mourn for that person first. If he fails, he will be killed in the future." I don’t know how I want to be arranged by you.”
"You are wrong. Those who only know how to fight with pens and mouths will use rumors to destroy them. But for those who kill me once and openly, of course I will defeat him with my fists."
Owen opened his arms, but of course before that, "Before that, we should let this body complete the planned improvement, just like a knight wiping his armor, preparing his sword, and filling his hungry belly before going to war."
Shenwu Guiyi said kindly: "Then I have to ask you to wait patiently for a while. I hope that the person you want to kill will still be in the Violet State."
Owen shook his head: "Friend, you are very observant of what happened to me and drew inferences from one instance to another, but you don't seem to be that sensitive to things that may be involved in yourself."
Shenwu Gui moved his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean?"
"My old body was guarded by an odd number of troops. That island can be said to be completely my territory. You have visited it before, so you should know the strength contained on the island."
Owen said, "Although I was killed by outsiders, the island's defense force at that time was restrained by those three mercenaries."
"How could He De, those scum who claim to be nobles, hire three people of this level? I can assert that the so-called hiring is probably the opposite. After those three people came to Violet, they suppressed those old people. The nobles use the power of those guys to achieve their own goals."
"And apart from the plan that you and I cooperated with, what other interests does Violet have now that are worth their time to intervene and investigate?"
Shenwu Guiyi rubbed his eyebrows and said, "You mean, they were attracted by me?"
Owen spread his hands: "Obviously. Hasn't there always been a great enemy in your family?"
Shenwu Guiyi was silent for a while, with a look of deep hatred mixed with contempt and fear on his face, and said: "Okay, you can send more people to assist, and we will increase the speed as much as possible."
"My brother, you should have done this a long time ago."
Owen laughed, turned off the video communication, and turned to look at the scholar next to him, "Assemble all the outstanding researchers to help."
During the entire exchange, he never mentioned that some information on his island might be confiscated by the enemy.
This is to gain an advantage in negotiations, but also because those information are actually not that important.
Although it was possible for Guan Luoyang and the others to sort out the contents of the "Violet Gene Tree" plan based on the confessions and through those materials, they would not know the specific location where the plan would be implemented.
And if those three mercenaries were subordinates of Shenwu Maha, then they should have known the content of the plan for a long time, but they were just not sure who Shenwu Guiyi's collaborator was.
"Violet is a state, and you are just four people. As long as I order those clones to stop going out, even if I mobilize all the forces of the old nobles and start searching inch by inch, there will be no results in less than half a year. "
Thinking of this, Owen felt a little sorry for his most elite men, "I just wonder if the executioners and the others have a chance to leave?"
………………
of course,
No chance.
The executioner had been reduced to ashes, but the Hell Claw was fierce. Under the siege of Faqi and the other three, he was seriously injured and still beat Jubei into a pool of blood and walked away covered in blood.
After Guan Luoyang and Fa Qi met, he heard them talking about this matter, but saw no signs of anxiety or sadness on their faces.
Half an hour later, Hell Claw ran back on his own.
His body shape became extremely weird at this time, and his body seemed to be wrapped with many tree roots and vines. If you look closely, you will see that those tree roots are excess muscle tissue that has been integrated with his skin.
And on the side of his neck, another head grew out, which belonged to Jubei's face.
"This guy is physically very powerful, but his willpower is just that. After being seriously injured, I took advantage of him and now he has fallen into a deep sleep."
Jubei raised his hands and moved his feet, with a hint of excitement on his gloomy face, "When I devour him completely, my strength should be much greater than before."
Guan Luoyang looked at the two-headed man with an unpredictable expression. Is the vitality so strong? It seems that if you want to kill him in the future, you can't just rely on physical attacks, you have to deal with the finishing touches more carefully.
"Since you can parasitize him, can you get his memory?" Guan Luoyang asked.
Jubei's expression became strange, as if he had taken a bite of muddy marshmallow, and said: "In the focus of his memory, there are no secrets about the organization behind the scenes. They are all about prostitution, killing, and shopping. He He can’t even remember who he killed.”
Jubei does not reject this kind of living habit. He still enjoys watching some of the scenes in his memory. However, it is quite unpleasant to see an opponent who has spent so much effort to parasitize and has no effective information at all. .
"Then it seems we can only check the information I collected first."
Guan Luoyang and the others searched the information in several conspicuous buildings on the island, leaving an island full of messy ruins. They returned to the yacht before dawn.
After they left, more than an hour passed before Violet's Sheriff cautiously approached the place.
During the day, major TV channels were bombarded with big news about the New District Public Security Bureau and Owen Island.
On the yacht, professional personnel seconded from the old nobles were reviewing the information.
Those materials contain many records of dealings with people from various parties, including overt business and some secret disputes. Only a small part of them mentioned the cloning base and related plans.
Guan Luoyang had been watching from the side and did not give Faqi and the others a chance to play tricks. Finally, after integrating the information and adding reasonable inferences, he came up with a plan called "Violet Gene Tree".
The content of the plan is for Shenwu Guiyi to provide metaphysical information and a special fruit that is said to make people immortal, combined with the genetic technology mastered by Owen, to cultivate some special embryos.
These embryos must have the characteristics of special fruits that can absorb underground mysterious power, and they must also have the characteristics of growing as fast as human genes.
After the cultivation is successful, if it is planted, the participants can obtain huge underground energy and have the immortal vitality to coexist with the land.
"I didn't expect that besides cloning fighters, they would have such a big plan behind them."
Faqi looked shocked, as if he had just learned that Violet had such a plan, and said worriedly, "It's a pity that there is no mention at all of where those embryos will be cultivated."
Tie Bo said: "Continue to search for Brad, maybe we can get some news from him."
Faqi looked at Guan Luoyang: "Mr. Guan, we will activate all the forces of the old nobles to detect any strange situations in various parts of Violet. However, if there are any suspected targets, I still have to trouble you to confirm them."
Guan Luoyang said: "After the battle on the island, Irving's organization must be on high alert. Violet is a state, not a town, and it is vast and sparsely populated. If he tries his best to hide it, you may have a hard time finding clues."
Faqi sighed: "But I have to find it. Absorbing the mysterious energy underground, who knows whether it will have an impact on the entire Violet State. Even if it is not for the salary of those nobles, I am not willing to sit back and watch the unknown disaster come. .”
"Okay!" Guan Luoyang praised loudly, "You mercenaries all have such benevolence and ambition. Naturally, I can't refuse. Send someone to look for it. Whenever there is any doubt, I will go and help. confirm."
Fauci shook his hand gratefully.
Next, everyone worked separately. Guan Luoyang left the yacht and went to the city to relax. He found a place and opened the chat software on his mobile phone.
[White Copper: How is it? Did you have a good time there? 】
[Luoyang: Not very good, and I haven’t met many worthy opponents, but the situation may change in the future]
[White Copper: emmm, it sounds like you have been involved in some troublesome incident that has been planned for a long time? 】
Guan Luoyang briefly summarized what happened here.
[White Copper: The underground mysterious energy does not refer to the Feng Shui ley lines produced by the combination of humanistic energy and earth energy. Arrays, spells, etc. that use the ley lines to operate are very common in Eastern metaphysics. It is necessary to go to war in such a big way. ? 】
[Luoyang: You also know that it is just a technique that uses force and will not enhance one's basic quality. But here, it seems that there is something that can make a person's physical strength soar and reach the sky in one step. After Chunhua got the lantern in the underground palace, wasn't it? Have you ever talked to us about the Shenwu family? They have a big background and this plan cannot be underestimated. 】
[White Copper: What are you going to do? Shall we ask the superior to come over and look for it with you, and seize the results of his plan? 】
[Luoyang: There are only a few of you. I came to you to ask if you know any trustworthy hackers in your dark web that specializes in extraordinary intelligence? 】
[White Copper: Hiss, I understand]
………………
After being busy for a while, Faqi felt the strange movement of the witchcraft doll, and immediately called his teammates together in a room.
The words of Shenwu Maha came from the witchcraft doll.
"I have found the thing. I will set off to join you. When I arrive, no matter where they hide the tree seeds, they will not be able to escape the lock of this thing."
Faqi and the other three were overjoyed when they heard this.
Jubei said: "Then, shouldn't we find a way to eliminate Guan Luoyang? We can't really let him share the fruits with us then, right?"
Faqi thought: "Captain, tell me exactly where you will land from and when you will come over. Let's arrange it..."
Several people thought carefully and discussed the plan against Guan Luoyang, then put away the witchcraft dolls and removed the Feng Shui aura that isolated the inside and outside.
But as soon as they went out, they were approached by anxious noble men.
"Sorry, the project information of the Violet Gene Tree has been made public on the Internet."
Faqi's expression suddenly changed: "What?!!"
………………
"A city poisoned by violence, a fighting capital full of fighters."
Guan Luoyang looked at the crazy news on the Internet, browsed through the statements that he believed or didn't believe, and chuckled, "Anyway, you are fighting every day, so let me add a prize to you."
