Scarlet Dawn [Apocalypse]

After entering the underground base for three days, apart from the occasional inexplicable activities by Nicholas, Bai Yi and Silvison conducted a carpet search of the entire base separately in their free time, and pieced together a fairly detailed structural diagram.

All this is going on under the eyes of the 'innovators'. Bai Yi is sure that they can't be ignorant, but as agreed, not only did they not limit their activity area from the beginning to the end, but provided the CNC codes of each node And two optical computers with excellent configuration.

The scientific research center of the entire base is located on the top floor of the base, and even half of it is exposed on the surface. There is no explosion-proof treatment on the surface, and the lighting will be very good when the weather is good.There are not many left-behind personnel in the base, and everyone carries out their part of the work calmly, without pressure or fear, and the pace of life is relaxed and comfortable.

"Here is the constant temperature culture cabin, which keeps the samples of D virus alienation at various stages, as well as the original virus, well, that's the one over there—"

Through the thick tempered glass, a gentle and elegant female researcher with exquisite makeup pointed to a double-helix test tube in the innermost part of the cultivation cabin and showed it to Bai Yi, "400 years ago, 'Senna' was filled with it, now It’s hard to find, the activity is very high, and the mutation is too fast!”

The woman spoke in a flat tone, and looked at Bai Yi with a good-looking smile all the time. It seemed that they were good friends, and the test tube was not filled with a world-destroying virus, but a plant growing too fast in her garden. brocoli.

"Do you mind if I take a look at the optical brain?" Bai Yi has no interest in viruses, and has been focusing on the optical brains in the laboratory from the beginning.

"Do you need the information inside?" The woman smiled sweetly, put her thin white fingers into her pocket, took out a memory stick and shook it in front of his eyes, "I copied it for you, just take it~"

Bai Yi was stunned: "..."

"Don't be surprised, young master, these were ordered by Bishop Congxi," the researcher pretended to be recalling, and pushed the frame of the thin-rimmed glasses casually, "He said that you will come to us almost today and ask for the optical brain Back up the data in it in advance, so that you don’t have to secretly copy it yourself.”

Although Bai Yi's actions have become much bolder since he discovered that the 'innovators' didn't care about their actions, but isn't it a bit too generous to send a copy of the document to the secret stealing enemy so simply and rudely?

Bai Yi felt chest tightness, and a vein on his forehead was throbbing. Could Nima have the self-consciousness of being an enemy?Is this mental paralysis?Wait until they relax their vigilance and catch them all?

Simply unprofessional! ! !

"Thank you." After complaining in his heart, Captain Xiaobai took the memory stick and put it in his pocket with peace of mind.

The female researcher pinned a strand of hair on the side of her face behind her ear, walked to another training cabin in her high-heeled shoes, and smiled while checking the data: "You are welcome, you are the son of Bishop Congxi, take him away. The results of his research are nothing, anyway, they are all from our own people.”

There are three black lines hanging on Bai Yi's head, and he followed her, "What did he tell you?"

"Xiao Yi has had enough of playing outside, and is going home soon—" another man who entered data in front of the optical brain said: "The bishop informed us so a week ago, and said that we should prepare for the consciousness transplant operation as soon as possible."

"Your body is kept in the most secure laboratory in the base. It has been taken care of by the bishop himself for 400 years. Except for the Pope, no one else is qualified to enter it!" the woman echoed.

Bai Yi said, "Aren't you surprised that Sylvison Vanjo came back with me?"

The woman froze for a moment, then showed an ambiguous smile, and exchanged glances with her male partner.

Bai Yi suddenly had a bad feeling, and before he could stop it, he heard the woman half-jokingly say, "I don't bring the young master to be so affectionate~ Although I'm not a girlfriend, Bishop Congxi is still very happy, and everyone agrees." It’s clear, but I’m not ashamed to say it.”

"Cough—hehe..." Bai Yi cleared his throat, looked at the viruses in the cultivation cabin through the isolation glass, and deliberately changed the topic and asked, "What is this?"

The woman glanced at his gaze, and then continued to bury her head back to record the data on the form, "D virus variant," when she said the term, the pride in her tone was vividly expressed, "the bishop's greatest invention, it Let the human ability become beyond imagination, especially the Nine prepared for the young master!"

"It's—just like that?"

It was the front row of many test tubes, and it also had a double-helix built-in structure. The red and blue liquids were intertwined with each other, emitting a mild and harmless luster under special light.Bai Yi was amazed that after a certain period of cultivation, such a liquid would finally wake up in an artificial body and become a living life, and that life was inhabiting his own spiritual realm.

Where did those who failed go?

"Father said that the greatness of life lies in its insignificance at the beginning, and everyone who disturbs its original form is guilty, whether it is the alliance or our 'innovators'."

Bai Yi stared at the test tube in the training cabin, and his thoughts seemed to travel back a long time. Hearing this, he subconsciously asked, "Did he ever say, why is he a sinner?"

The pen tip sliding on the paper froze suddenly, and the female researcher looked up. From her angle, she could only see Bai Yi's side face with tightly pursed lips. Some kind of desolate feeling that rejects people thousands of miles away.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Every one of us either voluntarily joins the 'reform' organization, or inherits the wishes of our parents. Father said that we, like the alliance, also disturbed the original form of life, and the same crimes are serious, but I never thought so."

"Master, Father is not a sinner, he brought hope to this hopeless world—"

"ridiculous--"

The female researcher was stunned, her brows were tightened, and her eyes were a little puzzled.

"Have you forgotten that it was the D virus that made the world despair?" Bai Yi turned his head slightly, and a chill appeared in his dark eyes, "It is he who is atonement for bringing hope to a desperate world."

"Young master... why do you say that?"

"Why do I say that?"

The tails of the young man's eyes were slightly raised, and the black and white eyes were like sharp knives, with a faint trembling killing intent, and the line of his lips slowly raised, finally forming a stunning and ironic arc.

The pen dropped from his hand and fell to the floor with a thud. A layer of cold sweat broke out on the researcher's forehead. It took him a few seconds to react, but Bai Yi had already withdrawn his gaze and looked at the virus in the cultivation cabin again.

Like a drowning person suddenly struggling out of the water, taking the first breath of air into her lungs, she suddenly had the illusion of being resurrected from the dead—just after arriving, the moment her eyes made contact, she almost believed that the boy would pull out his boots The dagger in the barrel pierced hard into his skull.

It was an eerie feeling of being pierced by death.

"Remember, I am Bai Congxi's son, but that happened in my previous life."

"From the moment Claude killed me, he and I are both free."

"If my dagger could reach his throat, I would cut it without hesitation."

The woman bent down to pick up the pen, temporarily stopped what she was doing, and stood side by side with Bai Yi in front of the training cabin, with a gentle smile on her face, "For so many years, the only question we have about Father is why we took The biological son is the body of the mutant, no matter how excellent the effect after strengthening is, the strengthening process still has to bear the risk of being swallowed."

"Now I finally understand—"

"why?"

"You are human, but you are very close to a mutant."

Bai Yi turned to look at her, "What do you mean?"

"Some people are born to be cruel executors." She made some hair movements again, her fingers trembling slightly unnaturally, "Not everyone can say that they will say something like killing their father without hesitation. "

Bai Yi seemed to have heard something ridiculous, and asked with a chuckle, "Did he hesitate when he killed me?"

"How do you know he's not in pain?"

Bai Yi said flatly, "I'll be in pain too, okay?"

The female researcher looked like she wanted to say something, but in the end she just pursed her lips and shook her head.

At this time, the door of the laboratory was opened sideways, and the two turned around at the same time to see a beautiful woman in a fiery red sexy leather suit striding in, and saw a relieved expression on Bai Yi's face.

"Jessica?" The female researcher asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Jessica raised her chin, pointed to Bai Yi beside her and said, "It's time for the operation, Father asked me to pick him up."

"Conscious body transplant surgery?" The researcher was puzzled, "Why is it brought forward, the last time the data was evaluated, it obviously took a few days to wait for the best time."

"Father's mind can't even be guessed by the Pope, and I'm also ordered to do things." Jessica shrugged indifferently, and then said to Bai Yi: "Young master, come with me?"

Bai Yi frowned, fixed his eyes on the other party, and asked hesitantly, "Are you... the person in Dr. Shirley's artificial body at that time?"

The smile on Jessica's lips deepened, and a pair of sexy cat eyes winked at Bai Yi ambiguously, "I didn't expect you to still remember me, it's really—"

The voice came to an abrupt end, and the word 'honour' was embarrassingly sealed in his throat.

Everything happened in an instant, Jessica and the female researcher only felt a tremor in the air beside them, and the next second, the silver blade of the dagger touched the throat, and the moment it touched the skin, the blood line was cut, and blood beads came out from the wound , rolling down the curve of the neck.

"Yeah, I have a really good memory, so remember when someone tried to taste my brain?"

The young man's voice sounded from behind, asking with a trace of gentleness unique to that age, the hot and humid breath was blown into the cochlea, the muscles on Jessica's back stiffened involuntarily, and a chill penetrated from the depths of her body.

How could it be so fast!It's just a part of the body that has been strengthened by the influence of the mutant, and it should still belong to the category of human beings in essence!This is... too exaggerated, right? !

"Why don't you let me see what a brain that can give birth to such a naive idea looks like, what do you think, Miss?"

As the dagger was pressed down, the thin wound in Jessica's throat expanded and quickly regenerated and healed.

The female researcher who was standing directly opposite the two of them came back to her senses at this moment, her pretty face lost all blood, and she looked back and forth anxiously at the two of them.On the contrary, Jessica was much calmer. She pointed at Bai Yi's wrist with two fingers, pushed it away slightly, and said with a smile: "Young master, it was just a casual joke, and you are too vengeful."

Bai Yi raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Didn't you still sigh that I remembered you just now?"

Jessica: "..."

"Where is Bai Congxi?"

"The lowest level laboratory, your body is also there."

"lead the way."

"You... let go first?"

The dagger moved away from the side of the neck, and Jessica suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Yi glanced at the blood on the blade, curled his lips in disgust, and rubbed repeatedly on the fox fur around Jessica's neckline until it was wiped clean before taking back the boots.

In the last 400 years, finding a healthy fox is much more difficult than finding someone else. Jessica felt sorry for the fox fur that was stuck together by blood, and a gallon of blood burst out of her heart.

"Does Hill know?" Bai Yi asked.

Jessica frowned, and said with a painful face, "I've been notified. In order not to affect the operation, he may have to wait outside."

Bai Yi nodded, "Let's go."

Leaving the laboratory where the virus samples were stored, the two walked all the way to the deepest part of the base.

Sylvison was leaning against the glass wall beside the laboratory door, with a lit but unsmoked cigarette between his fingers, seeing Bai Yi approaching, he stubbed out the cigarette, stood up straight, and smiled broadly in his eyes , Smiling: "Bye, come here—"

Bai Yi turned his head to signal Jessica to leave, then walked over quickly.Eyes met, the two didn't need any communication at all, Silvison hugged Bai Yi with one hand, put the other hand into the hair and pressed it behind his head, with a little force, Bai Yi raised his head obediently, and sure enough a kiss was printed on her. Between eyebrows.

Lips rubbing against the skin, Silvison hugged the young man's body into his arms, savoring this familiar touch, his voice was like an ambiguous whisper, and he said: "I think I will miss your current appearance -"

Bai Yi couldn't help laughing, and after a while, he said, "If you like it, why don't you give up your old body and ask Bai Congxi to make another artificial body for me?"

"No need," Silverson said, "I've met him and I'm looking forward to it."

Bai Yi's eyes widened in surprise, "Did you see it, when?"

Silverson said with a smile: "On the first day, Bai Congxi met me alone and helped me introduce him."

"how do you feel?"

"Should be great to do?"

Bai Yi: "..."

Bai Yi pushed him away and said angrily, "You can go!"

Sylvison pulled the man back, wrapped his arms around Bai Yi's waist from behind, and rested his chin on the sunken shoulder, thinking that this little guy would become more and more powerful in the future, and he might not be able to hug him if he wanted to, but he said : "When we first met, you didn't know how to control brain feedback. The first time I saw you before you were alive was in a memory."

Bai Yi put his cheeks against Silverson's and rubbed them lightly.

"You died at the most outstanding age, but I met you who needed protection the most, Bye, sometimes I am very grateful to your father."

"Hill—"

"When you come out, let's get to know each other again?"

"it is good."

Bai Yi turned his head and briefly touched Silvison's lips.

Silvison let go of Bai Yi, his arms hanging unnaturally by his side.

The digital control door opened silently in front of the two of them——

Bai Yi took a deep breath, and then walked in without looking back. There was a faint sound of the door sliding again behind him, and he finally couldn't help but look back.

At the other end of the door, Silversen met the boy's dark, ink-stained pupils. Their gazes met for a moment, forming a bond that could not be broken in this lifetime. Then, with a bang, the digital control door closed, and they seemed to be trapped Destiny is isolated in two worlds that are closely attached to each other and cannot cross each other.

Bai Yi had an inexplicable weird feeling in his heart, and before he had time to think about it, he heard a man's voice behind him, "I've been too busy recently, I haven't had time to take a good look at you, Xiao Yi, it's good to see you -"

It was that man's unique gentle voice, and at the same time, it was mixed with the sound of a slight twisting of parts. Bai Yi's sensitive perception caught the strangeness almost instantly, and turned around suddenly.

The end of the field of vision is a thick dark color mixed with the color of the deep sea. The soft-soled leather shoes hit the ground, and Bai Congxi stepped out of the shadows, with his arms raised, holding a pistol with a silencer firmly in his hand.

"Claude brought it back, and I kept it until today."

Bai Yi recognized that it was the gun that he handed to Claude for self-defense 400 years ago, and also realized the other party's intentions, his body suddenly moved, and his whole body almost became a phantom. Bai Cong wiped away.

"Very decisive, that's good."

A smile curled up on Bai Congxi's lips, and his body stood still. Bai Yi couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind, but felt that this man's calm appearance was terrifying.

"Unfortunately, you are not an opponent yet, and if you want to complete the consciousness transplant operation, you must experience death."

The voice fell, and Bai Yi's attack had arrived, but when he heard the words, his hands moved involuntarily, and Bai Congxi seemed to have anticipated everything, and had no intention of evading at all. He let the dagger stab into his chest, and then clasped Bai Yi tightly with his bare hands. Neck, lift people up in the air.

"This time, I had to do it myself."

There was a light sound that was so weak that it could be ignored, and the bullet shot from between the eyebrows, directly blasting through the brain.

Those were two completely different feelings from death. The entire sea of ​​consciousness erupted with a terrifying tremor. Bai Yi didn't even have time to feel the pain at that second, and his consciousness fell into chaos and kept sinking.

On the dark bottom, on the shelves, thousands of memory balls glow with a blue-white luminescence.

"It's time." In the corner, the conscious body sitting with its knees hugged opened its eyes, and looked at Bai Yi with a sly smile, "I feel pretty good."

"What time?"

"What time do you think Father is waiting for?"

"I have no idea……"

"He was waiting for the awakening of the ninth-level mutant, and now the time has come."
