long night fire

"Sales"

Shang Jianyao was about to move on when he turned sideways suddenly and pointed the flashlight at room 203.

He felt that gaze again!

The silent gaze hidden in the darkness!

The yellowish beam of light illuminated the messy desks, the chairs lying on the ground, the dusty desktop computers and the corresponding LCD screens, but it did not illuminate humans or other people. what creature.

"Is this how the owner of the room felt at the time?" The cyborg monk Shang Jianyao raised his hand and touched his steel chin.

Immediately afterwards, the red light in his eyes flickered violently a few times:

"its not right……"

"Namo Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi, what's wrong?" asked Zen Master Pudu, a half-mechanical monk.

Shang Jianyao said with a smile while feeling the different textures of the steel jaw:

"There are no human bones to be seen here, nor is there a large amount of feces, unlike the gathering of many people."

Shang Jianyao immediately refuted himself:

"Didn't you just say that?

"The survivors base is nearby instead of here, they just come over periodically to replenish food.

"Also, even if this is really a survivor base, they can bury the bones of their companions elsewhere and form a team to defecate in a distant place."

Shangjian Yao stroked his steel chin:

"That's not the point, the point is that there are no traces of human life here."

"So, it's the first explanation." The honest Shang Jian Yao spread his hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something, and shone the flashlight towards the end of the corridor.

In the beaming light, a figure stood out from the darkness.

This is a woman, wearing a white shirt and a small blue suit, looking like an old world professional elite.

She is about twenty years old, with short black hair over the ear, delicate eyebrows, straight nose, not too thick or thin lips, and she looks pretty good.

After such a first impression, Shang Jianyao quickly discovered more details:

This lady's shirt and suit have a lot of stains, and they haven't been cleaned for some time. Her nasolabine folds, the muscles of her face, the corners of her eyes, and the lines on her neck don't look like she's in her early 20s, at least in her thirties. Several.

In addition, her eyes were bloodshot, but not cloudy.

As soon as she saw Shang Jianyao, the woman's eyes showed a look of fear, and her expression was quite vivid.

She ran wildly, ran and rolled, and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

"Someone's..." Shang Jianyao sighed.

Then, he turned around and walked back to the stairs.

After exploring to this extent, most of his energy has been consumed, and he has to leave room for the return journey.

As for the strange woman who appeared in one of the five holy places of the "Crystal Consciousness Cult", no matter how cautious it is, it can't be overstated.

Shang Jianyao intends to continue exploring next time when his mental state is better.

On the way back, nothing happened.

……

The next morning, room 647 on the 14th floor.

Shang Jianyao was about to tell Jiang Baimian what happened last night when the phone in the office rang.

Jiang Baimian picked it up, smiled and shouted:

"Xiaobai, the higher-ups want you to go to room 648 on the 9th floor to choose the biological prosthesis and the genetic modification you want to do."

Only when you choose well can you make an appointment.

Bai Chen pursed her lips, got up and said:

"Ok."

Seeing this, Jiang Baimian asked with a smile:

"Do you want me to follow and help you as a reference?"

Bai Chen was silent for a while and said:

"it is good."

"I'll go too!" Shang Jian Yao was eager to try.

Long Yuehong breathed out quietly:

"Then let me go too."

Jiang Baimian was angry and funny:

"Really, when Xiaobai is a child, you need so many people to send him?"

That's what she said, but it didn't stop Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong from following behind.

When they arrived at Room 648 on the 9th floor, the group of four saw the middle-aged lady inside, and the middle-aged lady saw them too.

"Why are there so many people here?" The lady was very surprised, "I remember only one person needs to be selected."

"Can't there be a staff group?" Shang Jianyao was confident.

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong quickly agreed.

Jiang Baimian smiled and helped to explain:

"Three cobblers, Zhuge Liang is the best."

The lady in charge pouted:

"Even if you want to help with reference, you don't need so many people."

Hearing this sentence, Bai Chen couldn't help lowering his head and looking at his toes.

Chapter 21 finalized

The middle-aged woman in charge just wanted to nag a few words, and didn't really care whether there were too many people or few people.

She turned the LCD screen on the table to Bai Chen, and pushed out the mouse:

"You choose by yourself, and when you're done, fill out the application form and let me know.

"Here, biological prosthetics, there is no mark indicating that you can transplant them for free. The yellow ones require additional contribution points. The specific amount is written on the back. Although the red ones are free, they are very risky. You must sign a copy." Volunteer Agreement.

"Gene modification is a reward for you. It's all free. Different colors represent different risks. You have to take a good look at it yourself."

Bai Chen nodded politely:

"Thank you."

Shang Jianyao immediately pointed to the chair opposite the screen:

"Sit down."

Bai Chen didn't want to bend down to operate, it was too tiring and troublesome, she sat down calmly, turned the mouse wheel, pulled down the list of biological prosthetics, and looked at the options one by one.

Many of these were mentioned and analyzed by Jiang Baimian before, including the "venomous snake" type, "dragon" type, "feline animal" type, "distorted bat" type, "black rat man" type, "phoenix type" "type……

——The names of biological prosthetics are not necessarily real creatures. The rules are based on the comprehensive consideration of the corresponding prototype and final function. If the latter is biased, it is often named after fantasy or mythical creatures.

While Bai Chen was flipping through the pages, Shang Jianyao approached him without treating himself as an outsider at all, pointing fingers, Jiang Baimian was on the other side, only Long Yuehong was not in a good position and had to support the back of the chair, Help with reference from top to bottom.

Several people discussed for a while, and Bai Chen, who had her own plan, quickly made up her mind.

She chose a "merman" type biological prosthesis.

This kind of bioprosthetic technology is stable, the risk is not big, and it needs a large amount of additional contribution points, but Bai Chen has the final say, his own savings plus the field subsidy that will be issued this time are almost just enough——Jiang Baimian has It was promised that she could borrow a large amount of contribution points from her for free, but Bai Chen felt that she would not borrow them if she could.

Cost is one aspect, and the function of the "merman" biological prosthesis is another aspect that Bai Chen finally chose.

It has the ability to absorb oxygen from water through a special skin surface and corresponding internal structure.

This can effectively solve the problem of the "Old Tune Group"'s lack of underwater combat capabilities-according to the description, humans transplanted with this biological prosthesis can survive underwater for nearly 24 hours, and even if they have been exercising vigorously, they can also maintain two hours or so.

In addition, the "merman" type biological prosthesis has two abilities.

One is "jet flame" - the cells of this kind of biological prosthesis are active, they can not only produce their own fat, but also absorb fat from Bai Chen's body and store it, these fuels will be transformed and compressed into the palm of the prosthetic limb at critical moments, Creates a flamethrower-like effect.

Of course, this kind of replenishment is slow, and it may not be able to replenish it for several days. The designer has taken this into consideration, and used the special skin surface to add the function of directly absorbing oil fuel, that is to say, Baichen can Refill the flamethrower's fuel by inserting the arm into the petrol can.

The second is "infrasound attack".

This is the main damage method of the "merman" biological prosthesis underwater, and it can also play a big role in other environments.

As a biological prosthesis, the infrasound intensity it produces is not too high. It is divided into several frequency bands and is mainly aimed at humans. It can cause dizziness, nausea and depression in the target, and in the best case, it can stun the enemy.

"It's okay." Jiang Baimian agreed with Bai Chen's choice.

Shang Jian Yao was even more envious:

"You can set off your own fireworks!

"Can still dive for a long time..."

He also seems to want to get himself a biological prosthesis like this.

"Not bad." Long Yuehong echoed the group leader's words.

Bai Chen stopped hesitating and made a mark.

After completing this task, she began to consider the specific goals of genetic surgery based on the characteristics of biological prosthetics, her own fighting habits, and the risk of transformation at different points.

Watching the pages turn over one by one, Long Yuehong cautiously suggested:

"You are good at sniping, you can strengthen your 'talent' in this area."

He just saw that the risk of transforming points related to "gun talent" is very low.

Bai Chen nodded lightly and said:

"It's one of those options."

The upper limit of genetic modification is three traits, and the "firearms talent" corresponds to more points, there are many aspects that can be improved, and the risk-benefit ratio is very good.

——"Firearm talent" includes the improvement of eyesight, reaction, judgment, perception, and coordination.

Seeing that she had finalized the first renovation project, Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"For the second one, I suggest you choose 'Enhanced self-healing ability'.

"On the one hand, because of long-term underwater activities, even if there is no lack of oxygen, the body will be under a lot of environmental pressure. Over time, there will be various problems, such as rheumatism; on the other hand, the 'infrasound The principle of 'attack' is the special vibration of certain cells in the biological prosthesis, which will also have a certain impact on your own body."

The risk of transforming related points is higher than that of "gun talent", but after listening to Jiang Baimian's words, both Bai Chen and Long Yuehong feel that it is necessary to add this.

Only the honest Shang Jianyao muttered:

"That's not a big problem. When it becomes a big problem, who knows if there is still life..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Baimian stared back.

During this process, Long Yuehong even glared at him.

After Bai Chen put "enhancement of self-healing ability" into the target of the operation, Jiang Baimian laughed softly:

"Are you worried that the risk of transformation in this area is relatively high?

"Don't worry, I have a solution. The latest research shows that when doing the 'self-repair enhancement' transformation, adding 'immunity enhancement' can form a balance in the postoperative response and effectively reduce the probability of gene collapse.

"And the combination of the two also allows you to adapt to more polluted environments."

After Bai Chen listened quietly, she was silent for a while and said:

"it is good."

She showed enough trust in Jiang Baimian's proposal.

Shang Jian Yao heard the words and sighed:

"None of these three qualities are as interesting as the 'merman' biological prosthesis."

"Then which one do you want?" Jiang Baimian glanced at this guy.
