Mermaid Effect

The deep white staff rushed to the siren experimental subject placement room amidst the sirens, where the severely damaged experimental subject 7371 had woken up from a deep coma at some point. Moreover, it was attacking the inner wall of the petri dish crazily. Around it, several siren test subjects seemed to be infected with its madness, and they appeared extraordinarily turbulent.

When a staff member tried to get close to the petri dish where the experimental subject 7371 was kept, the terrifying monster suddenly shot out from the dark sea water, its face stuck to the cold inner wall, and it was squeezed into a strange shape At the same time, it uttered a shrill cry at the hapless human being.

"Bang bang bang"——

Its upper limbs and tail slapped the inside of the petri dish vigorously, and the movement was so loud that it could directly smash this batch of special grade seven impact-resistant special bulletproof glass.

"Oh, my God, my God—"

The researcher sat down on the ground in shock, kicking his feet back in a panic.

Four evil red eyes are shining with evil light.

A few colleagues rushed over, and they dragged the unlucky man from the ground, and then they used some old methods, electric shocks, anesthetics, and finally the little monsters in the room quieted down.

Of course, except for Experimental Subject 7371 - it is still stubbornly awake, according to the data, it may be because it received anesthesia for a long time before, making its excellent siren body resistant to tranquilizers, but there is no Admittedly, its movements have become much softer.

Its long, dagger-like nails scraped frantically on the inner wall of the petri dish, a series of blisters rose from its mouth, but the sound gradually became weaker.

"It looks like it wants something..."

After studying surveillance footage, a researcher came to this conclusion.

"Hey, look at this, Subject 261."

At this time, someone pointed to an individual on the screen who was very different from other experimental subjects and said.

Among all the siren subjects who experienced emotional resonance, it showed an unusual composure. Other subjects were screaming, beating glass and rolling, but subject 261 seemed to be a little confused , obediently staying motionless in its own petri dish.

In a situation where everyone is in chaos, its calmness seems particularly abnormal.

"This makes people feel a little strange... Wait a minute, don't you feel that Experimental Subject 261 is looking at Experimental Subject 7371?" At this moment, someone suddenly said, "Look at Experimental Subject 7371. At that time, its eyes were always staring at Experimental Subject 261—there seemed to be an invisible connection between them..."

"This is crazy, what's so special about Experimental Subject 261..."

"It came into contact with Rand Sievers today."

……

Someone pointed this out, but the whole incident still seemed so counterintuitive that it could almost be called "fantasy".If subject 7371 can be so sensitive that it can even smell the subjects who have been in contact with Rand Sievers and go crazy because of it, it means that the connection between it and Rand Severs is stronger than all researchers think even tighter.

After Deep White noticed this weird connection—on the second day, Rand welcomed a new visitor in the laboratory.

It was also a subject under the siren test.

It was transformed from a dolphin... Just like Mary, this poor monster was also tortured by experiments, and was in an extremely unstable state of mind before contact with Rand, aggressive towards humans , confusion, strong self-harm tendencies...

Rand felt as much pain in it as Mary did.

That special spiritual connection allowed him to sort out the monster's emotions completely unconsciously, and when it left, it looked much better than before.

And then, it was back in the petri dish.

This time, the researchers deliberately placed it together with Experimental Subject 7371... and just as people thought, this time Experimental Subject 7371 was keenly aware that the other party had been in contact with Rand.Experimental subject 7371 paid great attention to all experimental subjects who had contact with Rand Sievers...

Of course, Rand Sievers's calming effect on the siren experimental body has also been valued by the deep white side.

If his special ability can be used by Shenbai, many very difficult problems in the "Siren" experiment will be solved.At the very least, they will be more likely to produce more high-quality and stable siren-type biological weapons.

Then there is only one question left—should they release what they now have, the apex creature of the sirens, the red-scaled subject 7371, to contact Rand Sievers?

……

Rand didn't know that there was an argument surrounding him among the white upper echelons.

His physical condition made it difficult for him to perceive the infighting that was going on around him.Oh sure, he's in better shape now, siren genes have played a big part in this difficult time, and those tiny scars on his brain are gradually repairing themselves - the evidence is that he's starting to remember more things.

Sometimes he would even remember the dreams he had the night before: there would always be the ticking sound of instruments, fluorescent lights, water waves, and huge cylindrical petri dishes in the dreams.

There was a sound of something "bang bang" at the end of the darkness, and he felt two completely different emotions of deep fear and deep attachment to that "thing" at the same time.

Whenever he woke up from the dream, he would tremble, cry involuntarily, and then feel unexplainable sadness.

Of course, he didn't say a word to those "doctors" in white robes.As he gradually improved, he gradually began to realize that the "cure" that those people said was not so credible.

They kept bringing all kinds of monsters to Rand, heartbreak monsters.

Then let Rand bring comfort to them, and repair the fragile hearts of those monsters under the ugly appearance...

Rand especially expressed sympathy for one of the monsters, named Mary.

It can't stand the changes in its body at all, and its heart is in chaos. Rand has treated it many times, but every time it leaves from Rand with a little tenderness, and when it reappears in front of Rand, its body and mind are full. Filled with more brutal wounds.

Rand had to "treat" it again and again, even though it made his head ache.

"This is normal," but every time, under his protest, those people responded with such indifference, "There is a special mechanism in your body that can stimulate their brains with precise and weak electrical discharges, which It takes away their negativity, but it also puts a burden on your own body at the same time."

The headaches after Rand got worse and worse.

Sometimes, he would have that terrible hallucination - when he entered into that inexplicable spiritual connection with those monsters, he would feel that there was something calling him at the bottom of the soul of those monsters .

[Rand, my Rand.

I love you, Rand...

I will come to your side, Rand, I will be with you forever]...

Rand didn't know how to describe the feeling.

There is no sound, no image, nothing concrete, but the call is real and deep, even with a hint of despair caused by not being able to ask for it.

"who are you?"

In this latest "sleep", Rand murmured.

The voice suddenly fell silent... After a while, Rand felt the other party cry.

That deep pain has been immersed in Rand's emotions.

When he woke up again, he was so depressed that even the researchers expressed concern.In fact, it’s not just a matter of emotions—the laboratory has recently closed the observation window on the inside of the mercury, replacing it with a false three-dimensional landscape, and they did this not because of so-called humanitarianism, but because Prevent Rand from seeing his own shadow on the quicksilver film.

His cheeks are sunken, the whites of his eyes are bloodshot, and the huge dark circles under his eyes make him look like the frontman of some goth metal rock band, and he's been losing weight—according to the weight of the room's floor. The sensor system determined that his weight was less than 45 kg...

He was as thin as a skeleton.

"Hey, Rand...I can't promise you, but I'll try to get you a day off."

The researcher has a certain degree of love for Rand (she is the female researcher who contributed her child's toy Stitch), she looks at Rand, and then when others are not paying attention, in Rand whispered in his ear.

Rand hung his head, too tired to even say thank you.

Only when the researcher smiled helplessly, she began to take out the syringe and bandages from the medical box, she needed to draw Rand's blood, and until this time, Rand cast a casual glance at her.

However, it was also during this glimpse that Rand thought he saw something.

A void, ghostly thing was flowing in the researcher's body... He felt a strange feeling, his heartbeat began to speed up, and his body temperature rose.

The ghostly light gave him the feeling that it was as kind as the voice in a dream. For a second, the female researcher became another person in his sight... maybe not a person.

It was pale and tall, with blood-red pupils.

It was watching Rand all the time... Rand felt it.

His body went cold for a while, and at the same time as he felt nostalgic, another strong disgust came to his heart.

Subconsciously, Rand blurted out with trembling lips.

"Go away!"

……

"boom……"

The sound of something cracking gave Rand a jolt.

He came back to himself, and then he came back to reality.

The scene that appeared in his field of vision made him a little confused - the broken fragments of the needle tube glistened under the white light, and the researcher was curled up in another corner of the room in an unbelievable way.

Her hands and feet seemed to be out of control, like some kind of clumsy, misprogrammed machine, pushing backwards and squeezing around the exit.

After a while, her colleagues rushed in.

They try to stop her, but to no avail, the whole scene descends into chaos and antics...

However, it was this confusion that made everyone forget that as a senior researcher of the Siren Project, this female researcher had injected Siren cells for her own health when the Sirens were first discovered. protein solution.

It's just a health product that has been tested and proven safe, and finally gave up commercialization because of the cost of raw materials... that's all.
