Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 981 - 389: Launch
Days ago, Silent City.
"I’m currently integrating the data assembly of the Blood and Flesh Armor from the Deep Red World’s system, along with the research information from the White City Research Institute, and I’ll synchronize it all to you afterward," Mochizuki Masashi said blandly.
"Uh... okay," Lin Xian asked seriously, "Am I being too abrupt?"
"It couldn’t be more abrupt."
Lin Xian: ...
"It seems that all powerful Superpower Users are being targeted by the Deep Red World." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
As he was leaving, Lin Xian mentioned to Mochizuki Masashi, "But you shouldn’t be worried, since you’re not a Superpower User."
"I’m afraid you’re mistaken," Mochizuki Masashi calmly looked at Lin Xian, "From the preliminary acquisition of experimental research subjects, a large portion of them are ordinary people, or those who haven’t awakened any Superpower. Clearly, the Deep Red World has differentiated paths in its research on individuals."
"What do you mean?"
"Is this hard to understand?" Mochizuki Masashi replied, "Superpower Users are researched for Superpower development, along with Uncanny Human and Reproduction Armor systems. The Deep Red World’s true desire is to grasp why humans awaken their powers, the process itself."
Mochizuki Masashi’s words stayed with Lin Xian. Seeing the massive clone groups in the hall, reminded him of what Chu Yan had told him: the Deep Red World had acquired her DNA for human cloning, aiming to replicate the Spirit System Superpower, this bug-level Star Abyss survival ability, which had failed.
So during last night’s conversation with Chu Zhaonan, and even just now with Chu Yan about the Deep Red World’s fervent logic, Lin Xian kept pondering one question.
That is, why did the Deep Red World so easily collaborate with Chu Zhaonan and furnished the Fungal Brain Machine Technology, Suppressor, and Constraint Array Technology? From the failed A-level Prosthetic beneath Jin Hai, Lin Xian initially thought their aim was to acquire this S-Class corpse for experimentation. But now that this corpse is being made into a Breaking Curtain Device ready for launch, and with Chu Zhaonan dissolving the Federation Parliament to hand over to the Phoenix Society, facing Lu Xingchen’s garrison, the Phoenix Society’s Iron Guard Brigade, and hundreds of survivors across the city, what can the Deep Red World take away?
It’s improbable they went through all this just to silence their own people, then panic and escape after being used by Dawn City.
Impossible, logically, Chu Zhaonan wants to use the Deep Red World, and the Deep Red World certainly has thoughts of using Chu Zhaonan.
You can’t just do everything for the sake of silencing your own people, fleeing hastily after being used by Dawn City—
And last night, Chu Zhaonan’s reminder to Lin Xian, coupled with Julius’ comment now, reinforced this thought.
Giant God Peak Launch Site, White Hall.
Julius’s face turned entirely dark, eyes narrowed as he stared at Lin Xian, then he smiled, with a sense of defiance.
"Chu Zhaonan is a meticulous character with almost flawless thinking, dealing with him is far more troublesome than with politicians like Zhou Mingyuan, to the point that I once believed he could disregard the world’s destruction for the Vanguard Plan. Sadly... your presence here means his principles have wavered..."
"I guess, the Heart of the Galaxy’s main control is now in your Phoenix Society’s hands. Alas, human civilization develops slowly precisely because thoughts and rational rigidity aren’t enough, hence weaknesses, but unfortunately, I’ve made some preparations too."
At this moment, there’s a hiss from the ground, a ground hatch opens, and behind Julius, a row of large Frozen Chambers rises, each as tall as several meters, filled with various forms of Red Man Gu.
There are giants and ordinary human-sized ones, totalling ten, each exuding ferocious dark aura, the Spirit Vibration Value fluctuates mightily, bound to various restraint devices and suppression pipelines, causing abnormal flickering of lights in the hall upon emergence. Meanwhile, the previously dormant ’Julius’ clones undergo large-scale zombie mutations, struggling and roaring maddeningly in the water as they turn black-veined and blood-spewed, clawing at the chamber walls.
Julius raised his hands and spoke with some regret to Lin Xian, "You originally had the chance to lead most people away after dawn. After all, this replication experiment aimed to fully observe how those in despair, the ordinary people, mutate in fear, evolve and awaken their powers. But now I’ve changed my mind. I think targeting a missile and drone at the 7 million survivors inside the city wall would be quite an interesting scene—however, rest assured, for the sake of the experiment, we’ll definitely leave some selectively..."
"Dream on!" Lin Xian replied coldly.
Julius shrugged with a smile, "Farewell, later I’ll come to collect your bodies, for research value!"
After saying this, he turned to leave.
Beep!
A sharp siren sounded, and instantly, ten Frozen Chambers were simultaneously activated, the suppression stopped on the Red Man Gu inside, heartbeats echoed like war drums, and ten pairs of blood-red eyes turned toward Lin Xian.
"KIKI!"
Lin Xian immediately shouted to KIKI, and KIKI instantly understood, directly using Telekinesis to try to seize Julius.
