Volume 1 The Long Night Will Dawn Chapter 44: The Beast of Doom
Tianjing Base City.
Pinghai District.
She held a slender lady's cigarette between her slender fingers, her nails painted with red nail polish. She gently shook off the ash and then placed it between her bright red lips.
The woman had obvious mixed-race features, fair skin, a high nose bridge, and shiny silver hair. She was beautiful and charming. She exhaled a puff of smoke and said lightly, "Are you all ready?"
"Wen Xiuyong was indeed assigned to assist the Northern Military Region as we expected. We took the opportunity to find the item, but the alloy code box containing the item requires Wen Xiuyong's iris verification to open."
The woman frowned: "You mean we still need to catch him?"
"Yes, but his defense in the North Zone will be much weaker. We can look for opportunities."
"Looking for an opportunity?" The silver-haired woman sneered, "A bunch of rubbish. You can't even do this."
"You don't have a monster with a brain yet!"
The subordinates trembled in fear and turned pale under her scolding, not daring to argue a word.
It is obvious that his influence is still very strong.
"Go ahead and make the arrangements. I need all of our personnel in Tianjing to report to me before tonight. This mission is very important and there must be no mistakes."
"As long as we succeed in getting that thing, it won't take too long, and the whole world will be ours."
Her smile was cold and her eyes were emotionless, like a lone wolf hunting its prey.
Her subordinates heard her words and thought of the purpose of their mission, and their expressions became fanatical.
"I will do it immediately, dear Miss Fanny."
"For the Truth Society, for creating our world!"
…
"Do you know where Professor Wen went?"
[Professor Wu] asked Lin Yan and Wen Zhian.
Lin Yan thought for a moment and said, "We don't know for sure either. Professor Wu, do you have anything urgent to discuss with Professor Wen? We can contact him."
"No, let's wait until he comes back."
"You guys are busy."
Lin Yan nodded: "Okay."
Watching Professor Wu turn and leave, Lin Yan began to write the paper on the experiment he had just improved.
Wen Zhian smiled and said, "When my dad finds out that you have optimized the experimental plan of coenzyme R3V to this extent in the past few days, he will probably want to tie you up and take you away from the military area."
"You can't tie her up and take her away, unless he exchanges her for Xier." Lin Yan said with a smile.
"Bah, that's indecent." Wen Zhian turned his head away and said, "I don't want to pay attention to you."
Girls are smart and usually very generous, but when they like this kind of thing, there is not always enough reason, so they seem childish to each other.
When I meet a lovely person, I let down my guard and pour my whole heart out to them, feeling that the evening breeze and sunshine are both sweet.
Lin Yan squinted his eyes and smiled.
The whole paper was completed smoothly under his smooth thinking , and he did not pay too much attention to it. This thing was for Wen Xiuyong to read, not to be published.
It is enough if the content is complete and the writing is fluent.
"It's so quiet in the lab today."
Wen Zhian said casually and looked around: "Where did they go?"
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Lin Yan looked around. The laboratory was empty. There were only the two of them. All the other researchers were gone.
I didn't even notice it.
He was suddenly startled, feeling as if he had overlooked something. He frowned and thought, and the scenes that happened today flashed through his mind.
The final scene freezes on the figure of a person.
He was an old man wearing a lab coat and had a friendly smile.
wrong!
Lin Yan's pupils shrank, and the figure of Professor Wu today and the figure before overlapped in his mind.
There seems to be no difference.
However, there are still some deviations in the slightest details.
He keenly noticed that there was a slight difference . Before, when Professor Wu stood, his left knee would habitually bend a little. Because the amplitude was very small, it would not be noticed at all if you didn't pay special attention.
But today, “he” doesn’t!
He knew this couldn't be a coincidence.
Lin Yan broke out in a cold sweat. Something went wrong. The monster had already started to move and had entered the laboratory without anyone noticing.
"Ding-ling-ling--"
A dinging sound was heard in the laboratory, and Lin Yan turned his head to look at the source of the sound.
It's the phone ringing.
Wen Zhian answered the phone: "Excuse me, who is this?"
"Oh, Professor Wu, what do you want?"
"Yesterday's experimental records? Okay, I'll give them to you now."
Wen Zhian stood up and was about to get yesterday's experimental records and bring them to the office.
Lin Yan held her hand. Wen Zhian was a little shy at first, but when she lowered her head, she found that Lin Yan was in a very bad state: "What's wrong?"
“Not quite.”
Lin Yan calmed down and whispered, "Listen to me, don't panic."
"I suspect that there is something wrong with Professor Wu today. It is very likely that he has been killed. The situation of the other researchers is currently unknown."
"We have to get out of here now!"
If Professor Wu is really the monster in disguise, it is very dangerous here now. They must leave as soon as possible and pass on information to the outside world.
He definitely couldn't go through the main gate, but he had seen the architectural drawings of the institute before, and there was a safe passage next to the warehouse that could lead to leaving the institute.
Wen Zhian opened her eyes wide. She believed in Lin Yan very much and believed that he would not speak without a purpose, but the message in his words was a little hard for her to accept.
Professor Wu is a very kind person and has always taken good care of her. The other researchers are all familiar with each other after a year of getting along with her. Why did something like this happen suddenly?
After all, she is just an 18-year-old girl. From school to laboratory, her living environment has always been stable and peaceful.
It's hard to accept this kind of thing for a while.
Lin Yan didn't know what to do. The situation was urgent and he didn't even have time to comfort her.
Just hold her hand.
Wen Zhian's eyes were red: "It's okay with me, I'll listen to you."
Lin Yan gritted his teeth and quickly ran to the warehouse with Wen Zhian, preparing to leave through the safe passage.
Halfway through, he tried to contact Liu Mingxuan. The call was connected, but an unexpected voice came from the other end: "Have you got the experimental records I asked for?"
It was Professor Wu’s voice, still as friendly as ever.
But in the blink of an eye, the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became hoarse and unfamiliar: "Hehe... two little bugs, where do you want to run to?"
Lin Yan hung up the phone.
A strong sense of crisis arose in his heart. Why was the person who answered Liu Mingxuan's phone call the monster who was now disguised as Professor Wu?
Were Liu Mingxuan and the others also under control?
His mind was a mess. After all, they still underestimated this monster. The research institute not only had those security checkpoints, but also had special people arranged to guard the surveillance videos. In addition to the Star Team, there were several other special warfare teams of warriors who needed to patrol and guard on time.
And there should also be a god of war in charge.
But without making any sound, the monster took control of the entire laboratory.
Damn it!
He must take Wen Zhian away from here as soon as possible, but they have been discovered. Can they get out through the safe passage?
Triggering side quests:
[Beast of Doom] The North District Laboratory has been controlled by a monster. Your situation is very dangerous. Please escape or destroy the monster as soon as possible.
Mission Reward: Unknown
A new task appeared on the system panel that had been silent for some time, but it was completely bad news.
It also dispelled the last bit of hope in his heart.
He had already seen the door leading to the safe passage next to the warehouse, but he did not feel any joy.
In the shadows next to the warehouse, there was a clear sound of bells ringing. The sound was getting closer and closer, as if something was about to squeeze out from the shadows.
He stopped.
Wen Zhian's hands were a little cold.
In the darkness, they suddenly saw a pair of golden, gem-like pupils.
