Chapter 444: Chapter 445: Confusing and Mysterious
This corpse appears to be human-like, why do I say, "appears"?
The corpse’s outward appearance is that of a grown man, but his facial features are undeveloped. Moreover, his lower body and feet are incomplete, giving the impression of a severe deformity. Still, his skin is extremely tender, as fragile as a baby’s, ready to break at a touch. This male corpse does not have a single strand of hair, none at all, no eyebrows, no head hair, if we ignore his body’s deformities, then the overall look is quite smooth.
Then, a few researchers came in from the main entrance to report to the angry man, "Mr. Fang, the results are in. Experimental Body Nr. 1 experienced extreme cerebral wave interference. It came suddenly and has severe destructive effects on the brain. We strongly suspect that it’s the work of the Red Queen."
Mr. Fang, close to 60 years old, closed his eyes in pain and reopened them after a moment. Surprisingly, there was a look of sorrow in them. Those around him didn’t find it strange, instead, they shared his sorrowful expression.
Because the corpse on the hospital bed, while alive, was brought up and cared for by them. The corpse of this mature-looking male, in reality, was just one and a half years old!
"Now, don’t call him Experimental Body Nr. 1. He has a name, he’s called Fang Lun," Mr. Fang said, while looking at the serene corpse lying on the bed.
"The Red Queen has started murdering. It’s filled with killing intent." Mr. Fang muttered and then asked the researchers, "Did you get that?"
"We’ve recorded it."
"Good, distribute it to our allies. Let them be cautious," he turned to the medical staff, "Begin the autopsy on Fang Lun. Everyone else, leave the room." Immediately, all irrelevant personnel left the room.
Several surgeons immediately began conducting an autopsy on the body lying on the bed. Their focus was primarily on the brain.
"Begin the bloodletting..."
"The blood vessels have been blocked, the bleeding is complete, the skull is bloodless."
"Hand me the cutting tool."
"Zzzzzz"
Looking at the extremely skilled technique of the doctors, it was obvious that this was not their first time doing this, it seemed like a regular operation for them.
In a short time, the skull had been removed, exposing the brain. When they saw the sight inside, the surgeons wearing face masks widened their eyes in shock, exchanging stunned glances.
"What’s going on?" Mr. Fang hadn’t left; he held the highest authority over this laboratory.
"My goodness, I can’t describe it. Fang Lun’s brain...it’s a mush."
Mr. Fang furrowed his brows again, blinked and took a step forward to stand next to the corpse. Upon looking at it, a feeling of intense disgust welled up inside him.
Where the head of the corpse lay, the skull had been removed, and the brain had lost all its form. Just as the doctor had said, it was a pile of mush—unidentified fluid oozing out. Its appearance was like it had been stirred haphazardly.
"How could this happen??" Mr. Fang looked unbelievingly.
"Unclear. A death by cerebral wave interference shouldn’t look like this."
"I can’t begin to imagine the torture he must have endured."
"Record this. Then have the liaison department contact our allies. You guys check it again, if there’s nothing of value, incinerate it." After speaking, a heavyhearted Mr. Fang exited the automatically opening main door.
Outside, there were already several people waiting. Seeing Mr. Fang walk out, the one with the highest position was the first to report, "Mr. Fang, after Fang Lun’s death, the Night Ghost appeared and killed all the players in the Kaleidoscope."
"Night Ghost?" Mr. Fang once again displayed an incredulous look, "Haha..." He let out a laugh devoid of any humor, then continued, "Could Red Queen have made contact with Night Ghost? Continued to tell Night Ghost to serve Red Queen? That complicates things!"
"There’s something fishy about the inside. If that were the case, why wouldn’t Red Queen arm Night Ghost?"
"That must be the source code at work! Red Queen can do as it pleases in the real world, but in the ’Celestial World’..it can’t! It also follows the rules." Mr. Fang furrowed his brows, "But even so, with Red Queen’s covert assistance, the resources Night Ghost is gaining are beyond our imagination."
As he spoke, Mr. Fang walked towards the depths of the laboratory, with several following suit. They continued their conversation during the brisk walk.
"It pains me to see that Fang Lun, our most perfectly nurtured experimental body, is simply gone! I really want to kill Red Queen!" Mr. Fang said through gritted teeth.
"No one could have predicted this. The whole thing seems too contrived, why was Red Queen able to detect Fang Lun? And then have Night Ghost kill all the members of the Kaleidoscope. It doesn’t seem like the way an Artificial Intelligence would operate," one of them responded.
"You make a good point. Even if Red Queen did detect him and killed Fang Lun, at most, it would let the BOSS replenish its blood. Why would it target the players? And why would it have Night Ghost do this?"
"Such a bunch of idiots, they couldn’t even find a single person! When they noticed that Night Ghost had so much potential, how did they miss out on such a great opportunity?"
"How’s the progress on our current experimental bodies?" Mr. Fang asked in one breath.
"It’s not going well; the rate of mortality is too high, with most not surviving past 3 months..."
"Annoying... without a breakthrough in the experimental body technology and without their growth, they won’t be able to meld better with the ’Celestial World,’ and we won’t be able to accomplish what we want. Initially, I was against doing that, but they wouldn’t listen. They thought the fruit was ripe enough to pick." Mr. Fang’s voice filled with regret and frustration when he thought of the incident two years prior.
"Mr. Fang, I suggest cutting back on the investment into the experimental bodies. The costs are too high, we’re running a deficit."
"It’s fine, Genesis will be investing a large sum. They will also be sending personnel to conduct the research together with us. I heard that Genesis has been in contact with the United States about this."
...
Baffling, right? Wrong, right? Hahahaha! I bet you’ve racked your brain over this!
Chu You killed those Kaleidoscope players due to two reasons. First, his mind isn’t clear and needs to be unobstructed. Second, he wanted to let the opposing party and the government know that behind him was the shadow of the Red Queen! After all, he figured out about the experimental bodies, it was beyond belief!
This entire incident was too coincidental. They could only link this phenomenon to the Red Queen. The most crucial detail was, the experimental body had been annihilated! Chu You didn’t know whether the experimental body had actually died in reality, but that wasn’t important. The important thing was that the experimental body was discovered!
If there was no such thing as the experimental body, then his appearance there would mean that there was a mole within the Kaleidoscope. To their astonishment, the experimental body was annihilated, casting a mysterious and eerie veil over the whole incident.
After cleaning up the battlefield here, Chu You obtained several Sorcerer equipment of around level 10. As for the Five Star BOSS, it didn’t drop any good equipment, the best was Platinum grade.
Should he transform back into a little girl now? Chu You’s eyes flickered, and he directly used the teleportation function, instantly returning to his own guild.
