Chapter 42 Continued: The Pale Daughter

Lazarus pushed open the barn door.The door made a dull sound and opened a crack.It was pitch black beyond the crack of the door, and nothing could be seen, but something cold could be felt flowing from the barn.Lazarus went through the door.

Dominic grabbed Chris's shoulder: "Are you really going in? There might be a trap inside!"

"If he wanted to kill us, he would have killed us long ago, so why set any traps."

"But why should we listen to his command? We can go wherever he says? He killed Beren!" Thinking of the tragic death of Beren, Dominique shuddered.Although he always felt that Beren, as a hellhound, should not die so easily.

"We have to find out the truth." Chris said, "Isn't that why we came to Haitong Town?"

"Then we can't get out anymore." Dominique was discouraged.

Chris grabbed his arm and dragged him into the barn.It was very dark in the barn, and it took a while for their eyes to get used to it.The barn is airtight except for a small skylight at the top. The faint light streams down from the skylight and just shines on a cylindrical object taller than a person in the center of the barn. It is covered with a piece of red cloth, so Dom Nick didn't know what it was.

A head poked out from behind the cylindrical object. "Lazarus? I heard gunshots. What's going on outside?"

"Nothing." Lazarus said coldly.

A person emerges from behind the cylindrical object.He looked about five or sixty years old, with gray hair and glasses.He pointed to Chris and Dominic behind Lazarus: "Who are they?"

"Uninvited guests."

"Where's the Plague Knight?" Chris asked, "That man is the Plague Knight?"

"What? Me?" The man smiled fearfully, "No, no, no, how can I be a great Apocalypse Knight. My name is Rodriguez Hill, please call me Doctor."

There was nothing in the barn but the Pillar, Dr. Hill, and Lazarus, not even a blade of hay.If the Plague Knight was here, it could only be in that cylinder.

Sure enough, Lazarus pushed Dr. Hill away impatiently, and threw the sniper rifle at him while walking towards the cylindrical object.The doctor caught the gun, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.

"If you want to see the Plague Knight, then open your eyes and watch carefully—"

Lazarus grabbed the red cloth covering the cylindrical object and tore it back.The red cloth slid down like flowing water, revealing the object underneath—it was a cylindrical glass container as tall as a person, filled with a liquid of suspicious color, and in the liquid was a patient wearing a white hospital gown. She is a young girl; her arms are folded in front of her chest, her eyes are closed tightly, she seems to be asleep, but her mouth and nose have never bubbled out, and her chest will not rise and fall at all, if it is not for her long white hair. The ground floated around, undulating, and others would think she was a snow-white marble statue.

"This is the 'Plague' in the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and its code name in the Purin Company is 'Pale Daughter'."

The two demon hunters were stunned as if struck by lightning from the sky.When it comes to "Knights of the Apocalypse", the first image they imagine is an insolent woman like Helen, or a mysterious person like Moira.This girl floating in the glass container who doesn't know whether she is dead or alive is actually one of the knights of the apocalypse?This... the types of Apocalypse Knights are too rich!

"You said she was the Plague Knight?!" Dominique was taken aback, "What happened to her? Dead?"

"Dead? Of course she didn't die. Apocalypse Knights don't care about 'dead' or 'alive'. Their existence is more similar to 'natural phenomena' than 'creatures'. You would say that an earthquake is alive, or an earthquake Is the hurricane dead?"

"But why is she, uh, sleeping in that jar?"

Lazarus dropped the red cloth, stretched out his right hand, and stuck it to the surface of the glass container.For a moment, Dominic seemed to see the girl's eyelids move.

"Her body is imprisoned inside, but her will is free, and she can talk to others, but you are not the ones she chooses, so of course you cannot hear her voice."

Dominic shrank behind Chris and whispered, "Your brother is crazy, that's right."

"I'm not crazy," said Lazarus unhappy.Dominique was scared like a cat with furred hair.Unexpectedly, Lazarus heard it.

"I can hear her voice, and so can Dr. Hill. It's all her will."

Chris's eyes darkened: "What's going on, please tell me exactly. How did the Plague Knight be locked up in this jar, and how did Purin get involved in the incident?"

Lazarus glanced at Dr. Hill, as if asking him to answer this question.Dr. Hill rubbed his hands and said with a frantic expression: "About four years ago, a medical team assisted by Purin Corporation in West Africa found a Caucasian girl in an indigenous village. She claimed to be a foreigner traveling in Africa. At that time, dengue fever broke out in that village, and the medical team checked everyone in the village, including the girl. After the test results came out, the medical staff were horrified to find that the girl not only carried the dengue virus, but also carried the adult virus. Thousands of other types of viruses and bacteria, but they survived in her body without incident, and the girl showed no signs of illness. The medical team reported this strange incident to the US headquarters, and a team was dispatched from the headquarters An army of scholars, doctors, security guards, and wizards came, captured the girl somehow, and brought her back to the Detroit laboratory in the United States, which is the laboratory I was in."

Dr. Hill looked up at the girl in the glass container devoutly and in awe, "We gave her a code name, 'Pale Girl', and all the pathogenic microorganisms in her body have become valuable research samples, and we also found that Well, if a new type of virus is injected into her body, not only will she not get sick, but the virus will also enter a 'sleeping' state—she is simply a treasure house specially used to store viruses and bacteria!

"While the Detroit laboratory is studying the Pale Daughter, it is also working on another project, the 'Lazarus' project. As you all know, the patient code-named 'Lazarus' is Ms. Morrison's dead brother, She wants to create a virus to bring her brother back from the dead, and I am the person in charge of the project. I have extracted a very old virus from the pale woman. Its genetic arrangement is extremely simple, but it has extremely terrifying Power, when it resides on a corpse, it will activate the dead cells of the host, causing them to regenerate in a short time, and a new nervous system. I modified this virus and injected it into Lazarus. Sure enough, he got a new life!

"In addition, I also found that the virus in Lazarus' body can be transmitted to other individuals through body fluids, but the virus that is transmitted is a low-level variant, and its power is far inferior to the original type. Individuals infected by Lazarus will all To have some kind of 'empathy' with him, that is to say, Lazarus can manipulate other individuals!

"The experiment was a great success, but there is still some follow-up work to be done. We are constantly comparing the virus and its variants in Lazarus's body, hoping to find out how the 'sympathy' is caused. In this process, all those involved in the pale The researchers of Project Daughter of Daughter and Project Lazarus heard the voice of Daughter of Pale one after another. She told us that Daughter of Paleness is the Apocalypse Knight, the messenger of the end, and Lazarus is her spokesperson, as long as we follow her , will have unlimited knowledge and opportunities to uncover the mysteries of life science, but only if she is free. We all believe in the power and promise of the Pale Woman, so we planned to let her go, but this matter was rejected. The head office knew about it. Many researchers were fired, and the head office also decided to transfer the Pale Daughter and Lazarus to the Montgomery Lab to prevent the people in the Detroit Lab from really letting her go."

Dominique shouted: "So, the so-called 'container loaded with virus' actually refers to the Pale Daughter—the Plague Knight?"

"That's right. Isn't her body a magical virus container?"

"You plan to let her go on the way?"

"It's not 'our plan'. All the plans were taught to us by her. The purpose is to help her get rid of the shackles and regain her freedom. On the eve of the delivery, I stalked and got permission from the head office to go to Montgomery with the delivery team. Of course, the Pale Daughter has planned it long ago. When the convoy arrives in Haitong Town, she will use her magic power to seal the town and trap everyone here, while Lazarus, me, and the two Security guards, kill the others, take her to a safe place before the town's blockade is lifted, and at the same time use Lazarus virus to create as many troops as possible to defend her. In this safe, undisturbed place, She'll focus on breaking the seal on the glass container. If only you hadn't broken in."

"It doesn't matter if you break in." Lazarus said, "It only takes a little more time for her to break out of the cocoon. At this juncture, I don't allow anyone to disturb her. If these two people dare Get in our way, I don't mind killing them."
