Chapter 233: Final Tasks

They landed not far from the main control room, and the road was littered with traces of the last fight, which no one had bothered to clean up yet.

Hyena's limbs are still falling among the charred grass, human bodies are also many, from those still intact body can be seen, they are tied to a lot of weapons, the detonator is in the abdomen and legs, no wonder "hit the robot's head will not explode, body may explode".

Before Xie Qingcheng is still a little strange, if it is a machine, should be hit everywhere will explode, and should not appear some of the explosion of the phenomenon of some do not explode, and now he is no longer subject to the Mandela effect of confusion, finally see clearly the original structure is this.

The explosions occurred because they happened to hit the detonators in the abdomen and legs of the men ......

The three of them dove in, and slowly, the control room and the surrounding guards became clear to their eyes.

Chen Man was stunned, "Twelve Exalted Violent Killers are guarded there!"

Xie Qingcheng : "......"

He Yu: "......"

To both of them, Stormkill would no longer be a machine, it would be twelve reformed men.

The men were very big, all basketball players, muscular and armed, Xie Qingcheng looked around and suddenly realized that one of them looked familiar, and after a few seconds he reacted -

For fuck's sake, isn't this a murderer that his dad was responsible for chasing twenty years ago!

This is the man who committed five horrific murders that year, targeting single women, robbing them in their homes, humiliating and then killing them before burning their bodies.

And the most horrible thing is that for every person he kills, after a few weeks, he sends the police a patent leather notebook with portraits of the victimized women, and the leather of those books, after forensic examination, turned out to belong to those women who were killed ......

The case was covered by newspapers at the time, and Xie Qingcheng clearly remembers that Xie Ping did not return home for more than a month in order to arrest the murderer.

The last place police found any trace of the suspect was a rented house, after which the man disappeared as if he had vaporized.

"There are a lot of criminals on the island." He Yu said, "Mandela would hand out olive branches to desperate fugitives, tricking them into coming here, and after using them, just destroying their brains and making them into prostrate servants at their feet. The most physically fit were chosen to be the victims of brutal killings, implanted with chips with other people's minds. Zhuo Ya enjoys doing this, and she believes that by doing so she has erased the existence of these criminals and wasted the minds of the others, reborn in their bodies."

Chen Man is confused, "What are you talking about?"

He Yu: "Nothing."

Explaining such things to Chen Man was undoubtedly a waste of time, He Yu didn't want to waste this time, and he didn't want to speak more than half a word with Chen Man at all.

"After being genetically modified and equipped with weapons, each of them can defend themselves against more than a hundred people, their combat power is very strong, and since their brains are paralyzed and they are relying on electronic chips for their intracerebral activities, they won't be affected by the blood parasites either." He Yu said softly while observing the criminals, "But I have a way."

With that, he took a sleeping mouse out of his arms, then bit the tip of his finger and dripped a little blood onto it, ordering, "Go, onto them."

The dormouse then suddenly pricked up its ears, curled up its small paws, and groveled forward at breakneck speed.

Chen Man was stunned, "It listens to you?"

At this point He Yu had little need to hide his abilities, and he glanced at Chen Man, "That's right. I can also make you listen to me completely if I wish. That's why I keep so many animals in my lab, they are all my test subjects."

"...... Is your power now useful to all living creatures?" Xie Qingcheng asked.

He Yu said, "Something like that, but in order for animals to listen, they need to be trained to understand my language. This dormouse has been in the lab for almost six months."

As he spoke, the sleeping mouse had scurried out of the bushes and clattered towards the nearest criminal on its short legs.

The criminal, sensing the anomaly, turned his head unexpectedly and turned his face, which was wearing a scouting eyepatch, in the direction of the mice.

Mice: "Squeak ...... squeak ...... squeak ......"

That psychopathic murderer immediately revealed a fierce look, shaking his hair in annoyance and yelling, all the criminals were immediately caught by this arrogant ratbag's eyes, and one prisoner was already ready to attack. However just at this moment-

"Dang. Dang."

There was a sudden ethereal sound of bells on the wind.

It's a miniature megaphone device that the mice are shackled to!

There was a continuous wind-bell ringing from there. The ringing was dreamlike, like a dream composted in the summer smoky wind, or like the sound of a mysterious sacrifice that came from eternity. In the reverberation of this sound, all the prisoners suddenly froze and didn't fight any more.

He Yu exhaled and whispered, "It worked."

This was a maneuver he had quietly made these days after repeatedly observing the situation and going to Zhuo Ya's workshop - he had rewritten the instructions of the chip controlling these top criminals and implanted a Trojan virus.

As long as a specific wind chime was heard, the Trojan virus would be activated, interfering with the chip's attack instructions. However, this program could not be tested in advance, or else it would be easily discovered by Zhuo Ya. He Yu had to succeed in one go, so every cell in his body was tensed to the extreme when he drove the mouse forward just now.

At this moment, He Yu still did not dare to slack off and said to the other two, "Hurry up and go inside, so as not to have a long night."

The wind chimes more than a few times, and the trio appears outside the control room.

It still took a very strong heart to walk up to the main control room in front of them, in a dignified manner, despite knowing that these criminals, covered in weapons and self-destructive devices, were no longer going to attack them.

The three of them stepped through the dirty snow and walked as quickly and as quietly as they could in the direction of the main control room.

"They were the first twelve altered humans created on Mandela Island." He Yu's lips parted as he walked, explaining in a very soft voice, "Sort of test subjects, the-"

His jaw lifted slightly, pointing to the man closest to the entrance of the general control, the man with the most stout figure, but his face was very horrible, his features seemed to be waxed, Zhuo Ya originally seemed to want to give him some kind of new face, only halfway through the whole thing, he lost interest, and his intention ended in a hasty manner, and now his face was full of purplish-red scars, and his face resembled a piece of soap that had been used for almost as long as it had been used.

"That's number one." He Yu said, "The first successful reformer on the island. But for some reason, Zhuo Ya especially hated him."

After the introduction, the three of them had also walked over to the main control room under great mental pressure.

At this time Xie Qingcheng suddenly glimpsed the debris scattered on the ground nearby, because there was an explosion, the flesh and blood are blurred, but there is half of the police cap on the silver badge fragments remain, Xie Qingcheng heart trembled ......

The two figures who had fended off the hurricane-like attack of the mechanical dog for Zheng Jingfeng and himself seemed to be flashing in front of their eyes again.

Even though it's the prisoner's body, it's implanted with part of his parents' minds ......

Xie Qingcheng knew that he couldn't have any fluctuations in his mind at this juncture, and immediately averted his gaze from the scattered remains. However, there was a sudden realization swirling around in his heart -

Since all the criminals have been brain-destroyed and implanted with other people's mind chips, whose consciousness is hidden inside this extraordinarily large and horrifying "Number One"?

According to Duan Wen, Mandela's "violent killings" are all fine products, and they only revive worthy opponents as teammates, such as Xie Ping and Zhou Muying, but these twelve inmates are the original test subjects, plus He Yu said that Zhuo Ya disliked Number One. Plus, He Yu said that Zhuo Ya is not a big fan of No.1, so maybe these people's brain chips are not the ones that Duan Wen designated to be "resurrected", but some people who are inextricably linked to Zhuo Ya. ......

The thought swirled in his mind for just a moment before it sank, and with a soft click of a drop, the door to the main control room was opened by He Yu's masterful hacking skills.

He Yu's hand was on the door handle, and his other hand made a gesture toward them to enter.

Once again, they were in the control room of Riptide Coldlight, and in the starry sky, the virtual image of Zhuo Ya's daughter stood as she had seen it before, standing quietly and obediently, tilting her head back and staring at herself in disbelief.

At the same time, the headquarters has also sent three technical experts to cut into the line, docking He Yu, Xie Qingcheng, and Chen Man.

"Technician 1, docking Mr. He, ask Mr. He to stand at the twelve o'clock position in the control room and face in the direction of screen number column 18."

"Technician 2, docking with Officer Chen ......"

The three technicians' voices with some nervousness, but very firm, came from each of the three people's earphones, and the voice was like a drumhorn blowing, so they knew that they had no extra time to waste, and immediately followed the instructions and came to the corresponding positions respectively.

Four forty-five, before the time of the general attack, there is still one hour and fifteen minutes, this is the last mission, as long as the destruction of the rapidity of the cold light, the army of dream breakers pressed, then years of evil will end.

In unison, all three took a deep breath and prepared to receive the first decoding command from their respective technicians. But just then-

"Hee hee hee ......"

The little blonde girl behind them, clutching a rag doll, suddenly let out a creepy, wry laugh!

The little virtual monster that always ignored people, as if it was unconscious, unexpectedly spoke steeply! Her voice was sweet and whiny, childish and terrifying, like a small, bloody hand poking out of the mother's womb.

"Brother."

The child's milky voice uttered words that at the moment were undoubtedly horrible to the three men--

"What do you want to do?"

At the same time, the light boomed up as if it were a waterfall splashing down, and the three of them looked at the strong light and saw that a hidden gate opened above the dome of the main control room, and a woman in white stood against the light, her blonde hair dazzling, her form slender, and the light was as if angelic feathers were spreading out behind her, but her face was filled with cold and venomous writing.

Zhuo Ya!

Zhuo Ya looked down at them proudly, his vermilion lips opening and closing as he spat out a Russian word.

"You're here."

She wore a translator mike on her lapel today, and after a few seconds, it played her words again, already in Chinese that all three could understand.

It's amazing that she's been waiting here all this time!

"I won't let you destroy my device, in Mandela's future, my daughter and I must be reunited."

Zhuo Ya said word for word, every word she said was translated into Chinese and then into Xie Qingcheng's ears. Zhuo Ya condescendingly looked down on them, his eyes glittering with a cold and unusual light.

"Come here, Ava."

Looks like Ava is her daughter's name.

The tiny projection of the girl in the control room moved and walked straight towards her mother, who was standing on the platform of the dome. Zhuo Ya stretched out her tender lotus-root-like arm, her fingertips lightly touched Ava's blonde hair - she couldn't touch it, Ava was still only a holographic projection without a body, Zhuo Ya's fingers passed through the projections, causing Ava's form to slightly blur and flutter for a moment.

He Yu would speak in Russian, he said to Zhuo Ya, "Ava is already dead, even if in the future, your daughter can really get a new life, it is only artificial. Turn back, Zhuo Ya, you have already killed too many people in order to bring her back to life, those children who died because of you, their mothers suffered the same pain as you did, if you really want your child to have a place in heaven, if you really want her to rest in peace, you should stop what you are doing. Put an end to this."

"Heaven?" Zhuo Ya's gaze shifted from his daughter's projection to He Yu, "No, I don't believe in heaven. I only believe in what I've seen with my own eyes - I haven't seen heaven, I haven't seen earth, I've only seen hell. In hell, I have to earn everything."

"My daughter ...... she is already able to think simply, she is able to listen to me and live well here." Zhuo Ya vainly caresses Ava's phantom, his expression suddenly turning sardonic, "Can't you see? This is what I did! It took me more than ten years to make it possible for her to return to me! It doesn't matter if she's a phantom now, when Mandela's universe is complete in a few decades, she'll be whole, and she'll have the same body she had back then! You'll never try to talk me out of it ...... You have no idea how important it is for a mother to protect her child ......"

He Yu's eyes fluctuated in light and shadow, "I think I'm well aware of that."

"What are you clear about? You ...... ah!!!"

Zhuo Ya suddenly yelled - Sleeping Mouse!

It turned out that He Yu had wasted his time talking to her here in order to divert her attention, using the power of blood compulsion to manipulate that sleeping mouse to scurry onto Zhuo Ya and yank off the Clear Heart Ring that Zhuo Ya was wearing!

The dormouse is a lab rat, after modification, combining the genes of ants and minks, it is extremely powerful and fast, only to see it dodging around Zhuo Ya's body with lightning speed, instantly arriving at the back of Zhuo Ya's left hand, its tiny teeth gripped Zhuo Ya's fingertips tightly, causing her to erupt into a scream, followed by both claws exerting force, clenching the ring and pulling it outwards!

There was a clang as the ring hit the ground, and Sleeping Mouse managed to get the ring off Zhuo Ya's finger while she was off guard!

Zhuo Ya's face quickly changed.

He Yu is the one with the power to manipulate hearts, and the only way for the higher ranks to protect themselves is to wear this Clear Heart Ring.

Now that her ring had come off and flown away, she was unprotected, so she ......

"Come down." He Yu's pupils were vaguely scarlet, and the Sleeping Mouse scurried up to his shoulder and then to his arm, holding the ring and handing it to He Yu's palm.

He Yu held the ring in his hand and stared at Zhuo Ya, a cold aura emanating from his body as he barked orders to Zhuo Ya word for word: "Come down. Then, get out of here. Say nothing more!"

Zhuo Ya stood rigidly in place, as if held in place by invisible puppet strings, she slowly raised her arms a few seconds after He Yu had given this command, and after waving them twice, the console in front of her slowly opened up, revealing a computerized touch screen, she dully typed a few characters into it, completing the input of the command, and the high platform began to descend.

Ten centimeters, twenty centimeters ......

Clunk.

The platform, which was sinking according to He Yu's order, suddenly stopped.

The three men staring intently at Zhuo Ya were suddenly on guard, like arrows on a string, wondering what had happened and why it hadn't continued.

At this moment, Zhuo Ya suddenly bloomed a very magnificent smile, the tip of the eyebrow and the corner of the lips suddenly came to life again!

She leaned back against the guardrail, a sneer glinting in her light-colored pupils, "I'm sorry, I'm faking it. Are you trying to take this from me?"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and tore a thin chain from her bodice, while at the end of that chain languidly swung a glittering finger ring-

A true clarity precept!

"I came to fight you, how could I put the ring on my hand and wait for you to grab it." Zhuo Ya's Zhu lips pulled out a cold smile, tilted back, his expression became more and more cold and arrogant, "Come on people, arrest them back to me and offer them to Taipa."

As soon as she spoke, the interior of the main control room suddenly shook violently, and then the ground cracked - there was still room underneath! But He Yu they could not be stunned by this, only to see three bio-enclosed pods floated up from the ground, with Zhuo Ya's call, the hatch through voice recognition, hissed and bucked to open, the cold and disorienting cold air, the three people saw what appeared inside the pods ...... they all froze.

The control buttons in the bio-pods all opened, and out of the icy mist created by the diffusion of liquid nitrogen, stepped what turned out to be-

Xie Ping, Zhou Muying, and ......

Xie Qingcheng, there's no blood on his face--

Qin Ciyan!!!

"Do you like it?" Zhuo Ya asked slyly, "These are a few of my latest experimental bodies, using the same technology I used to give Wei Rong a face-lift back then, look, I made the ugly criminals' faces beautiful, did it look like a face-lift?"

In the midst of the chaos, I suddenly heard Chen Man exclaim, "Look at their feet!!!"
