Chapter 35 The Truth About Wancheng!
Chapter 35 The Truth About Wancheng!
On that subway.
Shen Yesu woke up several minutes earlier than Lin Xiao and the others.
Therefore, we can see more information.
After realizing that someone was watching them, Shen Ye didn't tell the truth about some things.
Take that pocket watch, for example.
He didn't actually know what that meant at the time.
But based on all his experience with challenging dungeons, what appears at the start is often very important.
As Shen Ye continued his journey, he learned about the new student program from the information he gathered.
Coincidentally.
The back of the pendant also has an engraving of the girl's name in the photo—Xingsheng.
This is how Shen Ye connected the pendant with Dr. Hua.
And there is another very important point.
Along the way, we encountered various destroyed teams and traces of battle.
It's all rather strange; their methods of dying, their fighting styles, and even their clothing are all so different.
Would you like some hot tea?
At this moment.
He watched as Dr. Hua opened the cabinet and took out a pot of hot water.
"Okay, thank you."
Dr. Hua was gentle and refined, and the wrinkles on his face were only gentle marks. He poured tea for Shen Ye as he spoke.
"Wancheng is a very big place."
The other person gently opened the pendant: "But it's also a very unfortunate city."
"My family and I have a history of spinal muscular atrophy."
Shen Ye looked at the other person and could see that Dr. Hua trembled intermittently when he poured tea.
"My family members died young because of this disease, and my daughter... unsurprisingly, also contracted it, and her condition was even more severe. She wouldn't even live past eight years old, so I dedicated myself to changing her fate and devoted myself to..."
Just as Dr. Hua's voice trembled slightly as he was lost in these memories.
Shen Ye interrupted him, saying, "Excuse me for interrupting."
"Although your story with your daughter is very touching and tear-jerking, time is limited, and you should have told this story to more than one team, and more than once."
Dr. Hua was not angry after being interrupted; instead, he looked at Shen Ye with surprise.
"On the way here, I learned about most of the new student program and also got a general idea of what the so-called official statements were."
Shen Ye calmly spoke:
"However, I believe that is not the true version."
"There are even some unknown things hidden here."
"I want to hear the objective facts."
Shen Ye looked at Dr. Hua with a serious expression.
The main storyline is very interesting, not only for Dr. Hua, but also for the entire Wancheng.
One person and one city, plus the constant appearance of various invaders and various forms of surveillance and covert observation.
It's not that simple.
Dr. Hua: "..."
"As you can see, my initial intention in researching the New Life Project was to save my daughter and countless people suffering from disabilities and other injuries, but I have been unable to solve the problem of side effects; it has some unstable symptoms."
"But the higher-ups at Wancheng couldn't wait any longer and bypassed my authority to use it for human experiments. Even though I strongly opposed it, it was to no avail."
"But I have to admit, I breathed a sigh of relief." Dr. Hua's eyes were cloudy. "Because the test subjects didn't have much of a rejection reaction, and my daughter only had a short time left... it seemed like there was new hope."
"Under the persuasion of higher-ups and the lure of my daughter's recovery, I finally agreed to begin the clinical trial phase, and what followed went extremely smoothly."
"In just three months, this regeneration potion has been distributed to everyone in the entire Wancheng."
"I also gave it to my daughter, and she did show signs of recovery. She was able to stand up from her wheelchair in just two days."
"But it was at this moment that the nightmare began."
"Both the research institute and Wancheng have been completely transformed into a living hell."
What followed was indeed completely different from the official records.
But Shen Ye had not yet heard what he most wanted to hear.
Dr. Hua seemed to know what Shen Ye wanted to hear, and took a sip of tea.
"Don't rush me, I know what you want to know..."
He said slowly:
"We call those who do not belong to this world 'descendants'."
"And as Wancheng descended into a living hell, a mysterious arrival appeared..."
"I was in the group at the time," Dr. Hua said softly. "I saw this descendant. He was dressed in black, so I couldn't see his face, but he gave off a feeling that was... sinister and terrifying."
"I stood at the edge of the line, watching all the higher-ups treat him with utmost respect, while that person looked down on everyone else as if they were ants..."
"I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling."
this...
Shen Ye was genuinely surprised. He was only interested in the sudden appearance of so many invaders, but then an existence he had never even considered appeared.
"And then what?"
"The higher-ups at Wancheng obtained something from him, or perhaps made some kind of deal, but in any case, they managed to bring all the mutants under control in just one month, but..."
"This is not a good thing. Everything has changed. Research on mutants is not only ongoing, but also a large number of experiments on living human subjects are still being conducted, and even intensified."
His eyes were deep and serious.
"The top management of Wancheng has become an even more cruel and inhumane entity."
"The entire city of Wancheng seemed to have become a concentration camp."
Shen Ye pondered. He had indeed guessed some of the details, but he hadn't expected there to be a mysterious person participating.
It was originally just an ordinary world, at most turned into a world overrun by monsters due to the drug going out of control.
But this mysterious person appeared.
It seems that things are a little different now.
"And then, why are you hiding in Research Institute No. 7, and why do they all seem to want to find you?"
Dr. Hua sneered: "Because...they don't know what the key factor of the drug is, and they don't know why their research has failed no matter what they do."
"Although the mutants outside are powerful, they have a fatal flaw: they only have a one-month lifespan, after which they will self-destruct and die."
"If I don't cooperate, they simply won't be able to complete the deal with that mysterious person."
Shen Ye's gaze, however, fell upon the surrounding mutants. Judging from their clothing, many of them were former researchers here, meaning...
"The mutants in this research institute don't have this problem, so they understand you have a way to solve it, and that's why they want to get your... and..."
Shen Ye's gaze suddenly fell on the petite mutant behind Dr. Hua, who was holding the pendant and grinning foolishly.
"you!"
Dr. Hua's gaze sharpened! A rare hint of danger flashed in his pupils!
Original origin...
"Don't have such sensitive skin..." Shen Ye smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to help you."
However, it seems that Dr. Hua has left out some details.
Judging from all the signs, he was thinking of escaping from here and leaving by subway... Could it be that he was no longer under the control of the Wancheng leadership?
And this time.
The screen next to it lit up, showing that Dr. Hua controlled all the surveillance cameras below B3.
He saw Lin Xiao and the others.
"Those are your two companions, right?" Dr. Hua, also observing the scene, said softly:
"They're going to die..."
