Chapter 955 Cloning Factory
Qi Lin and Lucas stayed in this laboratory for more than ten minutes. After searching all the information that could be collected, they left here quietly.
This time, both of them dressed up as researchers—although the uniforms of the researchers who were killed could not be worn, Lucas found a locker in the corner of the laboratory. In addition to clean clothes and footwear, he also found some weapons for the researchers to use for self-defense.
Three HK MP7 submachine guns, more than 200 rounds of 4.6mm caliber MP7 special ammunition, and an FNP pistol using .[-] caliber ACP ammunition and thirty rounds of ammunition.
This bit of equipment is not enough for the regular army, no matter in terms of range, power or firepower persistence, but it is enough for researchers who stay in the underground research institute all the year round and almost never go out.
As for the situation that cannot be solved with these weapons, then even if the researchers are equipped with large-caliber assault rifles, it will not help.
Qi Lin took two MP7s himself, and gave the remaining one and the FNP pistol to Lucas, and the two walked along the corridor, all the way towards the depths of the institute.
On both sides of the corridor are independent laboratories one after another, but the people in these laboratories seem to be obsessed with the work at hand, every airtight door is tightly closed, and no one else appears above the corridor.
The mastermind has indeed carried out a large-scale transformation of this underground research institute. According to the original design drawing, the length of this corridor is less than 180 meters, but now Qi Lin estimates that he has already walked 500 meters, but there is still no evidence. end.
"Lucas, have you noticed that we are going in circles?"
"Circle?" Lucas froze for a moment, carefully looked at the walls on both sides and the ground under his feet, and then showed a surprised expression: "This corridor is not straight?!"
In fact, Qi Lin had already noticed this phenomenon from the very beginning—this corridor, which was originally supposed to be straight on the design drawing, turned into a corridor similar to a spiral staircase after turning the first right-angled bend. Such a spiral design, but the diameter of this circle is so large that it is difficult for people to notice the arc of the corridor for a while, and it looks like they are in a straight corridor.
It's just that if the corridor is straight, then with Qi Lin's eagle eye ability, he can definitely see the end of the corridor at a glance, but now, his vision is blocked by the curved wall.
"The entire underground research institute has probably been rebuilt, and the blueprint left over from the old era has no reference value," Qi Lin said.
He roughly estimated the radius of this spiral arc, which might have to be over a thousand meters. According to this calculation, the area of the first floor alone is already several times that of the past.
Coupled with the area of the spiral overlapping part, I am afraid that the space occupied by this research institute alone is already close to the entire old underground shelter of Fort Yukon.
"Why did the mastermind expand this research institute to such an extent..." Qi Lin was a little puzzled. This is no longer a simple matter of expanding the original refuge. Transporting earth and rocks to other places is an arduous project. The Yukon Fort shelter started ten years before the outbreak of the nuclear war, and it was not completed until the penultimate year. The project volume of this new underground research institute, I'm afraid it will not be smaller than the original Fort Yukon underground shelter.
Is it just for a Qin?But according to this calculation, the mastermind should have attacked Qin a few years ago, and it is impossible to wait until the Utopia plan is about to go online before rushing to find a way to solve this technical problem.
There must be other uses for this underground research institute, and the main brain must have other purposes for building it.
"If that design drawing is useless, wouldn't our eyes be blacked out now?" Lucas held the MP7 in his hand and looked at Qi Lin speechlessly.
"You can think so... But if this research institute is really a spiral structure, at least there is no possibility of getting lost, because it has only one road, which is our current corridor... Boo!"
In the middle of speaking, Qi Lin suddenly put his finger in front of his lips, and at the same time pointed to an airtight door not far away.
The edge of the airtight door is making a very slight "humming" sound. This is because the air pump is balancing the air pressure inside and outside the door frame, which means that the people in the laboratory are opening the airtight door.
Qi Lin and Lucas immediately leaned against the two sides of the door. Qi Lin took out a Gauss pistol with a silencer, while Lucas put the MP7 in his waist and took out the gun from the pocket of his white coat. He picked up two surgical knives from Conrad's laboratory.
The MP7 allocated to researchers for self-defense was not equipped with silencers, and Qi Lin and Lucas would never use them before they were exposed.
The airtight door opened slowly, and a researcher came out dragging a black body bag. Lucas immediately strangled his neck with his arms, dragged him aside, and stabbed the scalpel into the In his throat, Qi Lin walked into the laboratory just like that.
This time, Qi Lin planned to leave a few alive and conduct a thorough interrogation.
The researchers in these laboratories seem to be in groups of five, and the four inside did not see the scene where the companion who went out was dragged away. When they raised their heads, Qi Lin had already stepped over The door frame of the airtight door, walked to the front of the test bench.
"Which group are you from? You went to the wrong place, please get out immediately—" A middle-aged researcher without a mask frowned, and at the same time reached into the pocket of his white coat , holding the handle of the self-defense pistol.
It's a pity that he is just an ordinary person who is not even a first-level evolutionary. Before he pulled out the pistol from his pocket, Qi Lin had already knocked out the other three people quickly, and then leaned forward, squeezed grabbed his wrist.
"Crack-"
His wrist bones were easily crushed by Qi Lin's fingers like a crispy biscuit, and before the researcher let out that super-high-decibel scream, Lucas had already dragged in the researcher's body that opened the door , and at the same time closed the airtight door of the laboratory again.
"Hiss... ah... ah... you... ah... who are you? What are you going to do?" The severe pain and fear made the body of the researcher in front of him tremble like a sieve, while Qi Lin was silent. He snatched the pistol in his pocket without making a sound, then grabbed a beaker beside him, smashed it on the test bench, and then held a sharp piece of broken glass against the opponent's ear.
This is also the location of a large artery, but it is different from the larynx. If you cut this place, people will not die quickly because of blood pouring into the trachea, but can struggle for a long time. During this time, He will feel the constant loss of blood from his body and the gradual approach of death.
"You...what are you going to do?" These researchers have not received special interrogation training, and their psychological quality is worse than that of soldiers in the base. Isn't it at 01:30, the broken glass in Qi Lin's hand is just scratched open A layer of epidermis, even the blood drops have not leaked out, and the light yellow liquid with a foul smell has been continuously dripping from the researcher's trousers.
"Guess?" Qi Lin narrowed his eyes suddenly, patted his cheek with a smile, then lifted him up and threw him heavily on the experimental table.
In order to fix the experimental body, the experimental table was originally equipped with restraint belts, shackles and other things. With the help of these confinement devices, the researcher finally experienced the feeling of the experimental body being difficult to move and being slaughtered.
"Don't... don't kill me... I will agree to whatever you ask... Please, don't kill me..." The researcher began to howl and beg for mercy. He wanted to struggle, but Kai The restraint belt made of Vla was tightly stuck to the ends of each of his movable joints.
Qi Lin did not interrogate him directly, but put the black body bag on the laboratory table and unzipped the body bag.
Inside the bag is also the corpse of a clone of Ayasuki, but the state of this corpse is already unsightly - the entire chest cavity has been cut open, no piece of flesh is intact, and the skull has also been removed. The cranial cavity was filled with blood-soaked gauze.
The brain, which was supposed to be inside the skull, was suspended in a glass jar on the experimental table, filled with electrodes.
This glass jar looks very familiar to Qi Lin. Back in Anchorage, in the underground vault of the Federal Savings Bank, I also saw an identical glass jar, and that glass jar was exactly what the mastermind gave them. A trap set.
Brain in a vat...
The quality of this clone is obviously better than that of Conrad and the others. Qi Lin can even feel the powerful mental fluctuations inside the glass cylinder... Although it is not comparable to the main body, but compared The previous clone was stronger than 01:30.
Qi Lin tried to send out the mind beacon, but then he was strongly rejected by the brain, and the mental powers of the two sides even confronted head-on, and it was precisely because of this collision that the glass tank was actually A large number of cracks appeared, and the life-saving fluid in it gushed out directly, and the brain of the clone shrank rapidly...
"No...don't..." When the researcher imprisoned on the experimental platform saw this scene out of the corner of his eye, Dang Lian yelled in despair, and he really wanted to turn his head around, but unfortunately his The neck, jaw, and head are all firmly fixed, and they cannot be turned at all.
After losing the life-saving liquid, the clone's brain quickly lost its activity, and the powerful mental fluctuations soon dissipated, except for the liquid on the ground and the crumpled instant noodles at the bottom of the glass jar. There is nothing left of the walnut-like brain.
This laboratory is closer to the bottom of the institute than Conrad's, and the experiment they conducted seems to be more advanced than the one Conrad and the others did.
"What are you studying in this experiment?" Qi Lin sat down on one of the few places on the edge of the experimental table that were not wet, and asked the researcher on the experimental table.
"Testing, testing the effect of the materialization of spiritual power on the preservation of the human body's self-awareness... That clone is one of the few individuals whose mental strength is close to the main body, but... but..."
The researcher really wanted to accuse Qi Lin of destroying a nearly perfect experimental subject, but when he thought that his own life was still in the hands of the other party, he immediately dismissed the idea and obediently closed his mouth.
"Such clones... how many have you bred?"
"Such a clone? You mean that the strength of the mental power has reached..."
"I mean the clones of this little girl. How many are there?" Qi Lin asked sharply.
"I... I haven't counted it, but there should be more than [-] clones in the breeding process in the breeding ground alone. As for those embryonic bodies that have not been implanted with genetic sequences, they may have to be well-known. Tens of thousands..."
"Then where is her body?"
"It should be in the cloning factory. The gene sequence of the clone comes from the spinal cord of the main body. In order to create the clone as close as possible to the main body, they must collect enough data... It didn't take long for this girl to be sent. , now we are all in a hurry..." The researcher stammered a little, his eyes swept over Qi Lin cautiously.
"Where is the clone factory?"
"In...in the 'cylinder'..."
"Cylinder?"
It took Qi Lin a minute to figure out what the "cylinder" in the researcher's mouth was - the laboratory of this institute was built in a spiral structure, and this structure would naturally leave a hole in the middle. There is a large cylindrical space, which is like a hollow in the middle of a spring, and the cloning factory built by the mastermind is "placed" in this cylinder.
"What about Qin? Where is he now? Don't tell me you don't know who Qin is."
"Qin...I know...but I really don't know where he is now...We researchers don't have enough authority to get in touch with Qin's level of experimental subjects, even clones." The researcher replied.
"Very well, the last question, how to get to this cloning factory?"
"Go along the spiral corridor to the fourth floor, there is a black airtight door, and there is a horizontal passage leading directly to the cloning factory... But entering the cloning factory requires multi-factor authentication, and you can't get in."
