Chapter 86:
The corridor was very quiet except for Wan Chao's voice.
"When the virus broke out, we were working on a new project on the human immune system. At that time, we should have been evacuated for the first time, but the signal contact with the outside world was suddenly interrupted for a period of time. It's a shame that none of us at the time suspected that there would be someone inside."
"When the signal is restored, it will be too late... We can only hide in the ground and live a dark life by storing food. And Chu Han... He announced that he would develop an antidote to the virus, by using In the name of energy, most of the authority in the research institute was transferred. But slowly, his colleagues who served as his deputy began to disappear one by one. Chu Han said that they all escaped without authorization, but I don't believe it. Until one day...until That day! I saw it all!"
Wan Chao's emotions were suddenly several times excited, his temples were bulging, and his temperament also changed from weak to faintly crazy: "I saw it, I saw Miss Zhao, Brother Sun, Xiao Wu who disappeared. ... They have all been transformed into mutants! Chu Han's research is not an antidote for infection at all, but is creating zombies and spreading viruses!"
Tang Xiao stretched out his hand and pressed it on the man's shoulder, Wan Chao's increasingly crazy temperament suddenly dissipated half, he stayed there for a few seconds, then suddenly lowered his head and cried: "Everyone is dead , I can't save them. I'm also dead, but I'm not reconciled, I haven't had time to make it all public... I'm so useless! Woohoo woohoo."
Tang Xiao is not good at comforting people. After waiting quietly for a few seconds, he directly asked the most concerned question: "So Chu Han is still alive?"
"That's not enough." Wan Chao raised his head proudly with tears in his eyes, "I activated the self-destruction device before I died, and I perished with this traitor and the monsters in the entire institute. Hmph, dare to plot against me, since the fifth grade of elementary school, I have never lost a werewolf killing me!"
“…”
Tang Xiao suddenly remembered the scene he saw in the dungeon a long time ago. The mad scientist who modified the mutants again and again must be the "Chu Han" that Wan Chao called.
Chu Han is a lunatic, his obsession must be stronger than ordinary people. If the existence of "dungeon" intervenes, can it also make him "live" in some form?
Wan Chao still said bitterly: "It doesn't matter how he dies, it's just a pity that the results and data of our research over the years are stored in the central computer in the main control room. I don't Willingly."
Tang Xiao: "That's why you dangle at the door every day?"
Wan Chao said confidently: "That's right. Especially when I realized that the culprit may still be doing bad things, I'm even more unwilling!"
"We obviously have the possibility of defeating the virus and the doomsday, but every time we fail for various reasons... Why is this, accidental? Coincidence? I don't believe it, I entered the state-funded research institute after graduating from my Ph.D. Working in an underground research institute, I dare to swear by the green peppers in the cafeteria, this is definitely not a coincidence!"
"As long as I can't find the reason, I can't let go, I can't move on. I choose to stay here so that one day I can see that someone breaks the 'cycle.'"
The word Wan Chao was a pun, the sentence paused slightly, and took a deep look at Tang Xiao.
The more memory he recovers, the more he has to say. At the same time, he also knew that after saying these words today, he would never have the possibility to open his eyes again... But so what?
He has waited for the person who wants to wait, after countless reincarnations, countless destructions and reconstructions.
He has no regrets.
Tang Xiao realized that Wan Chao's temperament had completely changed. Now he looks stable and tired. She let go of the hand on the other's shoulder, and wrote down the words she just heard in her heart.
Wan Chao has clearly told her: the rules of the copy, the behavior of the game, including the existence of NPCs, are inextricably linked, not as simple as it seems.
Just like the previous cycle copy, if you just want to make her more difficult, why should you adopt the "cycle reset" mode? What Wan Chao wanted to tell her was obviously not just this cycle, but more secrets of the game, and behind them was a larger and more treacherous truth.
…
Tang Xiao cuts when he is done. When he realizes that his thoughts are too heavy, he immediately retracts his thoughts and returns to the current task.
Wan Chao looked satisfied when he saw this. He took the initiative to walk to the front, looked at the corridor from the front of the two to the door of the main control room, and said, "In this section of the corridor, the main control room adopts a laser defense system."
"No one can break through it, and all who try to break in will be cut to pieces."
Tang Xiao: "Except me."
Wan Chao smiled, "Yes, except you...but I can help you avoid it. This is the last thing I can do for mankind."
He lifted his legs and stepped into the corridor without triggering any defense mechanisms. I don't know if it's because of identity authority, or because he can no longer be counted as a life.
A screen appeared on the dark blue main control room door.
The camera scanned Wanchao's iris, the first lock was unlocked, followed by a combination lock. Wan Chao entered a string of symbols into it without hesitation.
Tang Xiao looked at it and noticed that there were still a few discrepancies in the password cracked by the base. It should be until the end that the number of hints also failed to gather enough reasons.
Accompanied by a string of music that is not cheerful, the door slowly opened. There is light shining from inside, and the light is projected on Wan Chao, and Wan Chao's body gradually becomes transparent.
He smiled at Tang Xiao, revealing a row of white teeth. This time, he is not like a survivor who ran for his life in a hurry, nor is he like a resentful avenger. Everything has returned to the beginning, and there is only a young man in his twenties full of vigor.
He opened his mouth, Tang Xiao couldn't hear his voice, he could only barely recognize his mouth shape.
[You said you wanted to take my revenge, but unfortunately it was too late. But it doesn't matter, I don't count what you owe me. ]
Wan Chao disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Tang Xiao was silent for a few seconds before withdrawing the spiritual power mobilized in his palm.
She had long understood that this would be the result, just like Dr. Liu and Dr. Zhang... But when the repeated situation happened again, she couldn't help but try to change it, even if it was still useless .
[Congratulations to the player for completing the task: find the main control room in the research institute and open the completed copy, the copy plane escape channel has been opened. 】
【Players please enter the end copy, wish you a happy experience! 】
The light disappeared, leaving only two open doors. Tang Xiao walked into it, and the first thing he saw was not the so-called "BOSS", but a young and handsome man in a metal instrument in the corner of the room, who was sleeping peacefully.
This face, she will never admit it wrong.
—It was the "lover" that the dog game forced her to distribute!
It seems that this is the final copy, and even the ultimate rescue object has been packed and waiting for delivery.
Tang Xiao looked away and looked at the tall, thin man standing in front of the console in the center of the main control room, with his back to the light.
As she approached, the man's face gradually became clearer... His facial features were seven-point similar to Chu Chen.
