Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend

Chapter 320 The Mermaid King's Treasure 43

Zhang Chunliang had been waiting in the elevator for seven or eight minutes. The narrow elevator seemed to be traveling in a certain passage, rubbing against the mechanical ropes from time to time, making a harsh "squeaking" sound.

His whole body was tense, and he stared at the shaking door vigilantly.

He didn't really believe in that weird researcher, but he was sure that he had to leave there as soon as possible -

The sophisticated control instruments and expensive experimental equipment in that laboratory all told Zhang Chunliang that this was a very important experimental site. Therefore, no matter how scarce the number of researchers was, it was a very strange thing to assign only one person to manage this laboratory.

Unless - the researchers who originally worked in this laboratory were forced to abandon this place because of something, or... they were completely wiped out.

The monsters in the glass columns were not as vulnerable as 08865 said. Since entering the laboratory, Zhang Chunliang's heartbeat became very fast and goose bumps appeared on his arms unconsciously.

This was his body's instinctive reaction when in extreme danger. He was subconsciously on guard against those monsters. At a certain moment when he looked into the eyes of those monsters, he even had the illusion that... they could easily crawl out of the glass column.

He must leave.

However, there were only two exits, and the room he had just come out of was obviously a dead end, so he had no choice but to enter this elevator.

However, 08865's reaction surprised him. He had expected that they might have a fierce battle - Zhang Chunliang had already planned to kill him and replace him and leave here.

Who is that guy?

Zhang Chunliang could still recall the shock he felt at the glimpse just now. It was a miracle that he could come out of that horrific mutation laboratory unscathed.

"Click--" The elevator car shook violently for a few seconds and stopped.

The word "Q7" appeared on the display.

He finally reached his destination.

Zhang Chunliang looked at the data device on his wrist. It had been 13 minutes since he got on the elevator. If he guessed correctly, he should have already gone deep into the body of the big whale.

"Why are you here just now?" A stern female voice sounded at the elevator entrance, "The shift change is at least ten minutes late. I will report the truth to the captain when he wakes up."

A tall woman was standing outside the elevator, holding a stack of data and looking at Zhang Chunliang impatiently.

Behind her was an extremely spectacular scene.

A giant stone statue of a mermaid stands in the center of the hall, with its claws raised high, and a dark ball placed on each claw.

A turbid and foul-smelling fountain gushed out from the round pool under its tail, and the researchers who hurriedly passed by would stay away from it in disgust.

The walls of the hall were an uneven blood-red color, rising and falling slightly in a regular pattern. The walls were covered with strange strips of decorations that looked like blood vessels and tendons, which glowed with an oily light under the glaring lights of the hall.

Zhang Chunliang felt a little nauseous. He guessed the material of the wall - it was one of the stomach sacs of the big whale. The group of researchers built the main laboratory in the whale's stomach.

The fountain contains the whale stomach acid they collected.

He squinted his eyes, trying to get a clearer look at the two balls in the mermaid's claws, but the female researcher grabbed his sleeve and pulled him out of the elevator.

"Do you know how much time you waste will delay my work? Where is the information you brought?" The female researcher crossed her arms and looked at Zhang Chunliang impatiently, "Our time is precious."

All the researchers here were wearing masks, so she probably mistook Zhang Chunliang for someone else.

Zhang Chunliang pretended to touch the portable bag behind him, trying to find an excuse to fool the other party.

A hurried figure bumped into the woman recklessly: "076, Captain, the Captain is awake——"

"What?! The operation was successful again?!" The woman's irritable eyes lit up instantly. She didn't bother to cause trouble for Zhang Chunliang and hurriedly left under the guidance of the researcher.

There were many researchers coming and going in the hall, more than 200 of them. They had frowns on their faces as they shuttled through the alloy doors on the stomach wall of the whale.

Zhang Chunliang heard their worried discussion.

The mermaids on the boat suddenly became very ferocious, and the low- and medium-level monsters were simply unable to break through their defenses. Now they have occupied several floors of the cabin and are showing a tendency to continue expanding.

There are some strange passengers who are fighting desperately. They got a batch of extremely lethal weapons from somewhere... and are helping the mermaids resist the monster army.

The fusion of the recovered noble monsters and the mermaid meat was not ideal. Their genes were not as good as everyone imagined, and they all underwent more or less uncontrollable mutations.

The captain has joined the God-making Project and has just undergone his third operation, with good results.

The monster experiment area has been overrun on a large scale, and all the researchers stationed there have lost contact... Strange creatures have attacked the research institute... All life waves have disappeared, and we have searched many places but can't find them...

Attack the research institute? Zhang Chunliang followed behind a few people, quietly trying to find out the news. Could it be that this group of people were talking about him?

It was strange to say, why did he appear in that strange place, as if someone had deliberately put him there...

Zhang Chunliang suddenly realized something and his mind went blank for a moment. He ignored the danger of exposing his identity and stepped forward to grab the researcher who was communicating.

"How long has it been?" Zhang Chunliang asked in a deep voice.

The researcher who was suddenly grabbed was startled and asked stutteringly: "What...? How long has it been?"

"How long has it been since the Crazy Auction was held and the mermaids suddenly rioted?!" Zhang Chunliang's blood began to coagulate.

He captured a key piece of information from the group's words - the captain's third fusion operation.

Clearly, during the auction, Captain Will appeared at the ball in human form. How could he have completed the third operation in just half a day?!

This can only mean one thing - unknowingly, there is an information gap between Zhang Chunliang and this place.

And the node of information gap was the moment he was caught by the iron net and taken into the laboratory!

What on earth happened at that time?!

His movements were too intense and soon attracted strange looks from a group of researchers.

"Mermaids...riot?" the researcher repeated in astonishment. "...that happened seven days ago."

He looked at the somewhat neurotic Zhang Chunliang warily and took two steps back.

Recently, many researchers have shown strange behaviors due to excessive stress, and he can understand that.

Dealing with disgusting monsters every day and having to worry about the mermaids on the ship coming to seek revenge, it is very difficult for everyone. He has seen guys who are crazier than the researcher in front of him.

A few days ago, a fanatical gene analyzer who hadn't slept for three days and three nights suddenly went crazy. He insisted that their research institute had been occupied by terrifying demons, and all the researchers were parasitized, but they just didn't find out. What else... Their laboratory was full of brown and black tree root tentacles that would suck people's spinal cords...

In the end, he failed the second psychological test and was pushed into the fusion gene room by everyone with regret to undergo the mermaid egg experiment.

As the situation on the ship deteriorated, they had not collected fresh experimental subjects for a long time. The researcher was essentially a superior gene. Instead of letting him go crazy endlessly, it would be better to let him devote himself to the gene fusion cause he loved.

But unfortunately... I heard from them that the fusion of that crazy researcher failed, and strange tree roots grew inside his body, taking deep root in the laboratory, with lush branches and leaves, and verdant green - very similar to the tree root monster he mentioned.

"Seven days?!" Zhang Chunliang asked in disbelief, bringing the researcher back to his senses.

"You look a little tired." The researcher glanced at the code on his protective suit cautiously. "Mr. 07813, I suggest you go to the lounge, have a hot drink, and then take a psychological test."

The commotion here soon attracted the attention of the guards, who came over aggressively with electric shock coils in hand.

Zhang Chunliang was in a state of confusion. He glanced at the researchers around him and his arms began to tremble slightly.

He lost his memory for seven days... or he might have been in a coma for seven days. A lot of things might have happened to him during these seven days, such as the one he was most reluctant to accept - the fusion experiment.

"Come with us?" The tall, dark, bald security guard raised the electric shock coil and waved it in front of him.

Zhang Chunliang took a deep breath to stop his inner panic. He did not resist and followed the guard away.

The guard did not lock him up, but took him to a cozy lounge. The walls of the lounge were covered with wallpapers of fresh forests and blue skies. The built-in speakers played three-dimensional background music, with the crisp chirping of insects and birds, and the sound of gurgling streams.

"You need to get some rest, man." The guard made him a cup of hot cocoa, with a hint of pity on his fleshy face. "You have to keep hope. Once the captain's plan to create a god succeeds, we can kill the enemy and return to land."

Zhang Chunliang didn't know how to answer him, so he nodded silently while holding the cocoa.

"A psychotherapist will be here to assess your mental condition later. Adjust your state - don't try to lie." The guard stepped back and closed the door of the room.

Zhang Chunliang closed his eyes sleepily and leaned back on the soft sofa.

It was very comfortable and a little warm - a bit like being hugged by a cloud.

He was still immersed in the panic of having lost his memory for seven days and was racking his brains to think of a solution, so he did not notice that after the guard left, an amazing change had taken place in the small lounge.

The flat tree trunks on the wallpaper began to become rough and three-dimensional. The dark green leaves stretched out from the wall crisply and lay across Zhang Chunliang's head. The elegant and fresh air dispelled the stuffy stench of the whale's stomach and also had a calming effect.

Perhaps it was because the environment here was too comfortable, or perhaps it was because Zhang Chunliang was feeling complicated and tired at the moment, he just lay on the sofa and slowly fell asleep.

The tiny vines gathered in front of the door, slowly twisted into thick hemp flowers, and then turned into lifelike human shapes.

The human figure was extremely tall, with handsome and powerful shoulders and beautiful and strong muscles. However, this person had no living flesh and blood. His entire body was a realistic "model" made of vines.

Below the waist of the human figure was a mess of grass and trees, which pushed up its upper body and moved towards Zhang Chunliang.

It looked a little excited, and raised its hand to touch Zhang Chunliang's cheek, but it seemed as if it had thought of something and did not dare to act rashly.

In the end, it could only reluctantly drip a few drops of green juice into the cocoa on Zhang Chunliang's table. In an instant, the room was filled with a minty, cool scent.

The human figure bent its shoulders humbly, and the vines that made up its body scattered in an instant, leaving no trace.

Zhang Chunliang seldom dreams, let alone such bizarre and erotic dreams.

In his dream, he was tied to a soft bed by strange ropes and couldn't open his eyes.

This state seemed to have lasted for a long time. In the dream, he was not surprised at all, and even felt a little helpless.

There was a gentle and pleasant low voice like a stream close to his ear, forcing him to speak over and over again without getting tired of it.

"Forgive me?"

"Please take care of me, please..."

"I want to bite you...If you don't say anything, it means you agree."

The bad guys around him lowered their heads with a sense of righteousness.

He didn't know which part of Zhang Chunliang he bit, which caused his whole body to tremble violently. He struggled in dissatisfaction, trying to pull his arm out from the soft vines, but failed again.

"So sweet..." The bad guy leaned on Zhang Chunliang's chest and muttered contentedly, "It's so nice to have a mouth."

"Forgive me...?" he asked again, becoming more and more demanding.

Zhang Chunliang was breathing rapidly, with some dark water marks seeping out from under his eyes which were covered by the black cloth.

"I won't... forgive you!" He was a little embarrassed and annoyed, and threatened in a timid way: "You bad guy, you better have the guts... to lock me up for life. As long as I remember... I will definitely, definitely let you..."

“Don’t be like this…” The voice was frightened by him and tried hard to hide its panic, trying to melt Zhang Chunliang’s heart of stone, “I just want… I just want to get Huahua back…”

Zhang Chunliang felt a burst of ridiculous anger in his dream. He gritted his teeth and said dangerously, "Listen...if you treat me like this, I will never give the flowers back to you."

His threat probably frightened the daring guy. He stopped talking and just stared blankly. After an unknown amount of time, he finally came up with a bad idea: "Then I won't spend it. You won't hate me... If you can't remember anything, you won't hate me anymore..."

Zhang Chunliang's heart skipped a beat, realizing that he had gone too far and scared the timid guy.

Before he could explain, all his consciousness disappeared instantly——

"What a deep sleep."

Zhang Chunliang suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from the sofa.

The fox was wearing a doctor's coat and sitting steadily opposite him, holding a few pieces of paper in his hand and examining them carefully.

"Why are you here...?" Zhang Chunliang pinched his nose and tried hard to recall the dream he had just had, but his mind went blank.

This lounge was really nice. After just a short nap, he felt all his sleepiness disappeared.

"I've been asked to do a psychological test for you." The fox turned the paper over, his brows gradually furrowed, "What are these things?"

Zhang Chunliang looked at him with some curiosity - the psychological test seemed to be quite powerful, as it could make the usually calm and indifferent fox so irritated.

"Aren't you a researcher...? Why are you also a psychologist? Are you so short of manpower here?" Zhang Chunliang asked. He thought Fox was a very mysterious guy. He always appeared in every unexpected place and watched everything indifferently - but he had a hunch that Fox was planning something big.

The fox put down the test sheet in his hand without interest: "It's a little troublesome, I need to use some extra strength, this is the exchange."

Zhang Chunliang was stunned for a moment and did not ask any further questions.

"So - let's start the test?" The fox picked up a pen with a very cold expression.

"Question 1: Are you willing to accept the small flaw that your lover doesn't have long legs and can't move?"

Zhang Chunliang: “?”
