Chapter 223: How do you know you are Li Wu?
How do you know you are Li Wu?
After asking about the patrol and defense of the laboratory, the three people left.
They pushed the door and walked out brazenly, then identified the direction in the empty corridor, heading straight for the largest experimental field.
As they got closer to that mysterious laboratory, Cheng Shi's sense of unease became stronger. He always felt that there was a big conspiracy waiting for him in the laboratory, but he couldn't say why he had such a thought.
Thus, the three people, in a cautious mood of guarding against each other and guarding against the surroundings, pushed open the door of the laboratory and walked in.
And the moment they stepped in, the lights in the laboratory lit up in sequence from the door to the depths.
The three people's footsteps paused, their spines slightly stiff.
They saw that in this incomparably large laboratory before them, there were countless experimental devices, one after another, thick cylindrical devices lined up, so many they couldn't be counted, and each device was covered with a black blackout cloth.
At the top of these experimental devices, various colored pipes that couldn't be clearly seen were entangled together, forming the roof of the laboratory like tangled tree roots.
These pipes converged together to transport yellow-green liquid into the experimental devices, while the other end led all the way to the "distant" depths of the laboratory.
Out of caution, the moment Cheng Shi entered the door, he wanted to move his footsteps quietly to "push" the two teammates to the front, but he didn't expect that the other two had the same idea, which led to the three people's footsteps actually synchronizing the moment they opened the door.
They retreated together the moment they stepped into the door.
"......"
"......"
"......"
【Silence】 arrived as invited.
Cheng Shi looked at Li Wu and Gao San speechlessly, extended his hand to make a gesture of invitation, the meaning in his eyes very clear: this was also part of the cooperation.
Li Wu gave two dry laughs, imitating Cheng Shi's gesture of extending his hand, the meaning very clear: when it comes to opening the way, a singer can't compare to a warrior.
Seeing that there was no way to refuse, Gao San's eyelids twitched wildly, and he walked in with a dark face.
"This is automatic lighting; there's no need to be so cautious. Come together."
"You first, the scholar of 【Truth】 should naturally approach truth in advance."
Gao San gritted his teeth: "I am a warrior of 【Deception】!"
Cheng Shi revealed a standard smile, pointing to the ear hole of his prisoner helmet, indicating that he was deaf, just now.
"......"
There was simply no way to communicate with a master of playing dirty. Gao San stepped into it, and seeing that no alarms or traps were triggered, his steps forward became larger.
He walked to the first device in two or three steps, and without saying a word, he tore off the black cloth covering the device.
As the black cloth drifted down, a cylindrical glass culture dish with a shocking diameter appeared before everyone.
That culture dish was filled with creepy yellow-green liquid, and in the middle of that nauseating liquid, a completely naked human corpse was floating!
White hair, aged, gaunt.
No, that wasn't a corpse, because the moment Gao San tore off the black cloth, the old man in the jar suddenly opened a pair of blood-red eyes!
"Damn it!"
Although Gao San was prepared, he was still startled by the scene before him. His pupils shrank, his whole body trembled, and he instinctively turned into a rubber man and did a backflip to retreat. His peripheral vision swept across the surroundings, only to find that the two teammates who had been beside him were gone!
At this, his heart contracted violently for a moment.
But when he landed on his toes, steadied his figure, and looked back, he found that his two so-called teammates, Li Wu and Cheng Shi, were actually still at the door, leaning against the door frame and hadn't come in!
They had been watching his performance from beginning to end, like spectators watching a monkey show!
"......"
Gao San's face had already become ugly to an indescribable degree.
Even if he couldn't see the expression, Cheng Shi could imagine that this teammate was on the verge of breaking down. Seeing that this fragile cooperation was about to go bankrupt, he "conscientiously" saved it.
"Tsk, you startled me. I thought a monster would come out of it; I didn't expect it to be a person."
He strolled in with a tsk-tsk sound, hands behind his back like an old man visiting a flower and bird market, staring intently at the "experimental product" in the culture dish.
He was very curious whether this experimental product was caught or "manufactured," because Cheng Shi knew that they, these deathmatch prisoners, were also experimental products, but unlike these experimental products in the jars, they wore prisoner helmets on their heads.
But this red-eyed old man in front of him didn't seem like a newborn breeding product.
Probably no experiment would manufacture an old man?
"Are they cultivating human life?
No, it doesn't look like it. Is this a deathmatch prisoner caught?"
Li Wu also walked in curiously. He sized up the old man for a moment, and seeing that although the old man had opened his eyes, he was still expressionless and dull-eyed, he knew he had no self-awareness.
Thus, he pondered for a moment and walked to the second device in the horizontal row, pulling down the black cloth outside. Another completely naked experimental product appeared in everyone's eyes.
This was a red-haired male youth of Bomed. Bomed people were a common race in the south of the Continent of Hope: fair skin, tall, many spots, extremely easy to distinguish.
This red-haired experimental product, like the old man, quietly opened his eyes the moment the black cloth retreated. That hollow gaze looked at the three people as if waiting for something, but in an instant, the expectant light in his eyes dissipated.
"Removing the black cloth is probably a step in the experimental procedure, but we didn't connect the subsequent operations. So, based on your knowledge, what kind of experiment is this?"
Cheng Shi guessed as he walked. He looked around with great interest, and then removed the black cloth on the second device in the vertical row where the old man was.
However, the moment this black cloth fell, Cheng Shi's brain went "buzz" white, and his whole person was stunned on the spot as if struck by five thunders.
His arm stiffened in mid-air, his spine was tense to the extreme, his pupils contracted violently; he seemed to have seen something incredible.
And when Li Wu and Gao San looked here, they were similarly too shocked to speak.
Because in the eyes of the three, in that second culture jar in the vertical row, another old man appeared who was exactly the same as the first experimental body!
White hair, aged, gaunt, almost his copy-paste!
Cheng Shi looked at the old man in front of him with a gloomy face, his heart sinking.
It's broken; things are starting to develop in a weird direction.
The moment he saw the old man's face clearly, Gao San used his agile skills to pull down the black cloths of more than a dozen devices in a horizontal row.
Li Wu pulled down the black cloths of several vertical columns with tacit understanding. And when dozens of jars filled with yellow-green liquid appeared before everyone, the atmosphere at the scene underwent a subtle change that couldn't be reversed.
The three people took a slight step back toward their respective backs.
Because they saw that in every vertical column, there were many identical clones, some 3 or 4, some 6 or 7, just like the number of deathmatch prisoners wearing the same colored prison uniforms in the prison.
It's just that these "same colored" experimental products here didn't wear prisoner helmets, and they all looked exactly the same...
"Interesting, I confirm I am Li Wu, and I am also Li Wu, but you...
Who exactly are you?"
Li Wu cautiously drew a dagger poker card and placed it in his palm.
Cheng Shi was incomparably solemn in his heart, but on the surface, he was still smiling.
"How do you know you are Li Wu? Perhaps...
I am the real Li Wu?" ===== CHAPTER 224 =====
