Chapter 224: Biochemical Testing Ground (Revised)

"Eh, it really is!" Kiki also reacted at this time, and her face began to change.

"No! This is not Qingshui Town!" Lin Xian's gaze condensed: "Look, why isn't that transport ship there?"

If there was the biggest difference between this place and Qingshui Town, it was that the crashed ten-thousand-ton transport ship was gone.

Besides that, all the streets, houses, and the style of the town were exactly the same.

"How is this possible? How can there be two identical small towns?"

Kiki looked at this scene, looking dumbfounded.

Lin Xian had just thought he had driven in the wrong direction. How could there be another small town in front after coming out of the black forest?

Only after looking carefully did he notice a few clues.

The strangest thing was that looking around, he didn't see any zombies. The entire Qingshui Town was shrouded in a strange silence under the night.

"It's dark, this is too strange." Lin Xian looked at his watch. The time was not even four o'clock. How could it be dark?

"We seem to have come to a strange place." Kiki couldn't help but shiver, feeling a bit terrified.

"That communicator, is there still a signal?"

Hearing Lin Xian's words, Kiki finally reacted and hurriedly picked up the mobile terminal.

"Yes! And it's closer to us." Kiki pointed to the Qingshui Town in front: "It should be right in front."

Lin Xian looked at the Qingshui Town under the night, his eyes sank: "Go, let's return the original way."

The situation in front of him was completely different from the result he wanted to obtain, so for the sake of caution, Lin Xian decided to retreat. It was dark now. If he alarmed any strange entity, it would be troublesome instead.

"Mm, listen to you." Kiki had no interest in the small town in the dark in front of her at all. Hearing Lin Xian say return, she immediately turned the car around.

So the two drove their motorcycles and began to rush into the dim forest along the original path.

Hum hum hum!

The motorcycles shuttled through the rugged forest all the way, but the situation became worse and worse, because Lin Xian found that no matter how he drove, the light in the forest was already pitch black, and even darker.

The next instant, the two motorcycles finally rushed out, but when the two swept their gazes, they were shocked to find that they had actually returned to the place they had just come out of.

"Mom, I've seen a ghost!" Kiki was immediately uneasy and looked at Lin Xian: "Hey, did we meet a ghost?"

Lin Xian's eyes sank, looking at the small town in the dark in the distance, and said: "Perhaps we can only go over and take a look. There must be something in there that is different from the Qingshui Town we just went to."

"Eww~"

Kiki's face was full of reluctance, but at this time there was no other way, so she could only nod: "Alright, I'll follow you."

Hum~

Lin Xian drove his motorcycle and slowly moved toward the small town. The surroundings were empty and silent. The sound of the motorcycle engine echoed, and the orange lights of the two cars broke through part of the darkness.

After getting closer, Lin Xian and Kiki were even more certain that the small town in front of them was real!

On both sides of the road, various shops and storefronts were exactly the same as the Qingshui Town outside. Lin Xian specifically paid attention to some places he had memory points of and found that whether it was the tables and chairs inside, the signs, or even the position of the manhole covers, they were exactly the same.

In an instant, a feeling of inexplicable oppression and splitting rose from the bottom of his heart.

Kiki felt the same way as him. The two had just come out of Qingshui Town, and in a blink of an eye, they came to another "Qingshui Town". Just hearing it made them feel quite strange and bizarre.

"How can there be an identical small town?" Kiki frowned and looked at both sides, her gaze very shocked at this moment.

"It should be artificially replicated."

Lin Xian gradually felt an unusual breath, and his expression began to turn solemn: "Be careful."

Kiki rode her motorcycle behind Lin Xian. A gloomy and terrifying breath drilled into the back of her neck, making her couldn't help but shiver, and she said in a low voice: "How does this place look like there are no people at all?"

She took out the mobile terminal, and the program she set before sent a stronger signal again.

"The communicator you installed must be nearby..."

Beep~ Hum! Beep~ Hum!

Just at this time, a deafening alarm sound suddenly rang out in the town, instantly breaking this strange silence.

Lin Xian and Kiki stopped their cars one after another, looking at the surroundings with solemn expressions: "What's wrong?"

"It seems to be some kind of alarm sound!" Kiki said with a serious expression: "It sounds so strange!"

The alarm sound echoed in the streets and alleys of the small town, constantly echoing in those gloomy alleys, closed shop corners, and the depths of the pitch-black streets.

At this time, a mechanical female voice suddenly rang out.

"No. 3 Qingshui Town Testing Ground, 92nd biochemical experimental body simulation begins."

Hiss~

As soon as the voice fell, more fog suddenly sprayed out from all corners of the small town!

"Testing ground?!" Lin Xian's expression changed.

"Could it be that we are already in that research institute now?" Kiki said in surprise.

"I know, this place should be the territory of that Foundation, but how can such a large place not be seen from the outside at all?"

Perhaps in response to his words, the next second, a thunder suddenly rang out in the sky.

Crack!

Thunder flashed, and dark clouds rolled.

A sense of oppression that the mountain rain was about to come gradually rose under the small town!

Lin Xian watched everything and listened to everything at this moment. Suddenly, some sound seemed to come from the darkness in front.

"What's wrong?"

"There is something in front." Lin Xian said.

Hearing this, Kiki became nervous. She tilted her head and looked at the movement of the motorcycle lights in front without moving.

In that darkness, there seemed to be something moving slowly toward the boundary of the motorcycle lights.

Ga~ Ah~ Ge~

Gu~ Eh

From the darkness came a subtle, strange sound, like a rotten vocal cord constantly twisting.

"Someone walked over."

Lin Xian slowly reached out to the black gun, looked over, and saw a person walking staggeringly into the boundary of the motorcycle lights. The next instant, everyone's gaze changed.

The thing that walked over was actually a conjoined person with dislocated limbs connected together, pale all over, with two heads that were blood-red hollows, unable to see facial features.

Lin Xian frowned. Is this thing a zombie or a strange entity? Or a human-strange?

"So disgusting, what is this thing?!"

Kiki felt her scalp tingle as soon as she saw it, and her brows were twisted together.

"Be careful behind!"

At this time, Lin Xian suddenly shouted to Kiki.

Kiki hurriedly turned her head. At this time, in the darkness behind her, a conjoined monster also walked out with strange movements.

This conjoined monster looked like two rotten zombies connected together, gray-white all over, with split chest bones and organs, like two people sewn together!

"Run!"

Hum hum!

Lin Xian stepped on the throttle, the motorcycle roared and turned around in place. At the same time, he raised his hand and fired a few wind guns, bombarding the head of the conjoined monster in front.

Pfft pfft pfft!

The invisible wind gun directly bombarded the faceless face. Only a few muffled sounds were heard, and blood and flesh splashed on the monster's face immediately, but it seemed to have no effect, instead angering the twisted conjoined person.

Only a strange ga-

"Can't it die?"

Without a word, Lin Xian had his power armor output torque, raised his hand, and threw the black spear directly. The magnetic control engine emitted a hum, accelerating instantly like a black shuttle!

Boom!

In an instant, one of the heads of the running conjoined person was directly blasted into smithereens, with only skin and tendons left connected to the neck. Yet, this only made the monster stumble for a moment, but it still charged toward them as if unaffected by anything.

At the same time, the twisted monster arms and torso on the conjoined person suddenly began to swell, like they were bloated with gas, and thick black smoke emerged from the torn wounds and the severed neck.

Lin Xian took one look and secretly thought, "Not good."

"Kiki!"

"Got it!" Kiki acted decisively, directly raising her hand to grab and control the conjoined person with invisible telekinetic power, stopping its advance. Who would have thought that the next instant, the frantically struggling conjoined person would suddenly begin to convulse violently, and the swelling of its torso would intensify!

Boom!

In an instant, the upper body of this monster directly exploded on the spot, a thick black smoke gushing out. At the same time, a large number of black beetles gushed out toward the surroundings like blood, clattering like quicksand.

These black beetles made a rustling, skin-crawling sound, gathered on the ground in a flash, and then rapidly crawled toward Lin Xian.

"What kind of ghost test subject is this?!"

Lin Xian was shocked; he did not know what kind of experiments this SIID Foundation Research Institute was actually conducting. Seeing these strange things, which were neither zombies nor human ghosts, his heart was filled with confusion.

Hum—Lin Xian stepped on the accelerator and turned directly into the street on the right. The motorcycle wheels rolled over several black beetles, spraying out dark green juice and black smoke, emitting a highly corrosive, foul-smelling gas on the ground.

Clang—clang—clang.

The motorcycle accelerated all the way. At this moment, the doors of the shops along the road suddenly opened in unison, and all kinds of twisted, bizarre humanoid monsters began to walk out from inside the rooms.

At this time, the weirdness of the entire small town seemed to have come alive!

Hum!

In the black shadows of the street ahead, countless twisted conjoined people began to appear in groups. They were not fast, but as their numbers increased, these neither-human-nor-ghost things began to appear one after another on every street, making one's scalp tingle.

Lin Xian could not charge directly through these monsters, so he could only constantly change direction, attempting to drive into alleys he had not been to before.

He turned the handlebars to the left, dodged the twisted conjoined people walking from the front, and shuttled through an extremely narrow alley.

!

When he rushed out, he was stunned to find himself on a wide street, with an old department store building standing tall, and across the street, there was a middle school with its gates tightly shut.

"It seems we haven't been here before," Kiki said to Lin Xian, looking somewhat unfamiliar with the place.

"This should be the place where that transport ship outside crashed," Lin Xian said immediately. The central area of Qingshui Town outside was a mess, and that department store building had long since collapsed, making it impossible to see its original appearance.

At this moment, Lin Xian looked at a few staircases that were vaguely familiar and suddenly realized that this location was exactly a ruin on the outside.

"Lin Xian, look, inside that school, are the lights still on?"

At this moment, Kiki suddenly shouted.

Lin Xian's gaze swept over, and he saw that in the school's teaching building, there were still a few dim yellow lights, which looked very strange and abrupt in this mist-filled town.

"Could there be people?"

"Let's go in and take a look."

Where there are lights, there are circuits. No matter what kind of mechanical experiment it was, as long as he could reach the control system, he would have a way.

Hum—the motorcycle charged directly through the middle school gate. The surroundings suddenly became wide; the plaza, flower beds, playground, and teaching building were all school layouts that Lin Xian was familiar with.

Under the darkness, it was empty and vast; the motorcycle seemed to be driving on a black ocean. He could only watch the lights inside the teaching building to guide his direction forward.

"Hey, those monsters didn't chase us in."

Kiki looked back and realized that those conjoined monsters were now frozen outside the school gate, motionless, as if something was isolating them.

The monsters were increasing in number, blocking the school entrance until it was airtight, but they just would not step inside.

"There must be something strange here; maybe the entrance to the research institute is right here."

Lin Xian looked back at what was behind him. Those bizarre test subjects were constantly gathering, blocking the school gate more and more densely. Densely packed, looking from afar, there were countless twisted silhouettes standing there in the dark night, which made one shudder.

"It doesn't look like there's anyone in here."

"Then we might have found the right place!" Lin Xian said.

Screech—

The motorcycle stopped under an abandoned teaching building. The ground was covered with all kinds of books and waste paper, and the wheels kicked up a rustling sound as they drove over.

Lin Xian stopped the motorcycle and looked at the dim yellow lights lit up on the teaching building. With no time to linger, he grabbed his black spear and electric blade, ready to go up and investigate.

Since it was a test site, there must be emergency exits, and there might even be monitoring equipment.

Lin Xian and Kiki, one after the other, charged directly into the teaching building from the main entrance.

At this moment, in a bright room, several staff members wearing research uniforms were seriously observing the research data on the computer screens.

One of the female researchers suddenly saw a few strange figures on the monitoring screen. Her expression changed immediately, and she hurriedly pressed the intercom in front of her.

"Report, unknown intruders have appeared in Zone F."

"Perform a vital sign scan."

"Two unregistered personnel detected; monitoring information has been uploaded."

On the other side, the experimental staff turned to look at the security supervisor behind him: "Supervisor Feng, there are two unknown intruders. Shall we stop the test process?"

"Hmm?"

Feng Chun frowned and immediately picked up the mobile terminal in his hand, flipping through the monitoring footage on it. Several clearer shots extracted facial information.

"Just some unlucky guys again. It doesn't matter, let them die. If they don't die, send them to Institution No. 2."

"Yes."

"Wait." When Feng Chun flipped to the last person, the mobile terminal suddenly began to flash with a warning.

Beep, beep, beep.

【Key observation personnel of the Foundation detected, Confidentiality Level: Level 1】

"What?!!" Feng Chun looked at the young man on the mobile terminal who was the first to charge into the teaching building area, his face changing drastically: "Level 1 personnel?"

"Quick, quick, stop the release of test subjects in Zone F, notify Miss Hua immediately!"

Clang, clang, clang!

Inside the research institute's monitoring hall, all the staff members were instantly in a flurry.

【Shut down the weather system】

【Re-inject biological inhibitor No. 0912】

【Close the Crying Classroom】

【Stop releasing the bait scent in the Calamity Corridor】

Patter, patter.

In the corridor, a group of staff members walked by in a hurry. Hua Xiaoling walked quickly in the front, listening to the reports of her subordinates.

"Miss Hua, it is confirmed to be Lin Xian, the target specifically focused on by the Foundation. He is currently at the Qingshui Town test site, and there are two people in total."

"Where did they come in from?"

"It should be the test subject jungle of Institution No. 2."

Patter—Hua Xiaoling stopped in her tracks: "How could they come in from there?"

The assistant's expression changed, and he shook his head.

Hua Xiaoling's eyes flickered slightly: "Alright."

"Then, Miss Hua, do we need to invite them in?"

Hua Xiaoling pondered for a moment, then said directly: "Initiate regional separation, see if we can isolate Lin Xian alone. Take this opportunity to conduct a characteristic test on his mechanical abilities."

The assistant frowned upon hearing this: "Then his other team member, are we going to...?"

Hua Xiaoling walked forward quickly and said calmly: "Ignore her for now."

"Yes."

Brothers, double monthly tickets until the 7th, begging for early-month monthly tickets, I am deeply grateful!
