Chapter 53 The Innocent Fool

Although the atmosphere of the scene was stagnant for a while when Earl Lian walked into the hall, the atmosphere of the banquet began to warm up gradually as the exquisite dishes were served by robots.

These former nobles were basically party animals, but during this period of time they were arrested and imprisoned. They not only had to be interrogated and confessed their crimes, but also had to suffer what they called "inhuman torture" - that is, watching themselves The property recovered by all means was confiscated, turned over to the state treasury, and so on.

After finally having the opportunity to reunite, they immediately started pouring bitterness against their companions:

"Don't you know that those pariahs not only want me to hand over all the money in the family, but also take away my adopted daughter who is like a flower! She is only thirteen years old!"

A potbellied aristocrat next to him sneered: "Take it down, when I don't know what your 'adopted daughter' is raised for? But let me tell you, the grandsons of the military are all pretentious! What laws and rules, Lao Tzu It is a nobleman, and I am the rules!"

"That's right," another echoed, "nobles should be high above, otherwise how can we distinguish ourselves from those pariahs on the street? That mermaid is also a fool, and he complied with Gu Xi, and he actually did it for a group of pariahs in vain. Damn it, it's so funny hahahaha."

"You can't say that." Count Lian shook the champagne in his hand with a disapproving look on his face.

Although this is a palace, and there are no servants in the hall except for the nobles, even the Earl would definitely not believe it if Gu Xi did not install surveillance here.

"This is your fault." He said slowly, "As nobles, we have to thank that mermaid, not only him, but also other kind and beautiful mermaids. If it weren't for them, we would also It's impossible to stand here and enjoy the banquet, right?"

With that, he raised the champagne in his hand and shouted at the nobles: "Let's toast to the great mermaid!"

The nobles burst into laughter.

"cheers!!!!"

On the background wall of their celebration, it was the mermaids who were sealed in the icy carved stone carvings and could not be free even to death.

"It's so good," Count Lian got drunk not long after, he sat drunkenly at the chief's seat, squinted at the nobles who were indulging in joy, and finally couldn't help but start telling the truth after drinking, "Gu, Gu Hee is really a kind person! Big fool! And, he is a perfect match with that mermaid! Hahahaha..."

Even the Earl laughed so hard that tears welled up from the corners of his eyes.

Suddenly, a slender white hand protruded from the wall behind him and tightened his neck violently.

"Hmm !!!" Lian Earl's eyes widened, and the wine was scared by most of them.

He blushed, and desperately grabbed the arm that bound his neck with his fingers, but the other party seemed to have no pain at all, and the touch of his fingertips was as cold and stiff as a dead person.

Earl Lian froze, turning his head with difficulty bit by bit.

At a glance, he saw the mermaid whose lower body was still embedded in the wall. The gray mermaid stared at him blankly, the strength in his hands tightened, but two bright red blood tears slowly slid from his empty eyes, as if accusing the nobles of committing crimes against their compatriots and their homeland. of crimes...

"what!"

Even the earl was so frightened that his brain was deprived of oxygen due to suffocation, and he started to punch and kick the mermaid frantically: "Go away! Go away! Go away...go away, inferior creature!"

The nobles below were stunned.

In their eyes, they could only see that Earl Lian, who was sitting on it, suddenly jumped up, tried his best to restrain his neck with his hands, and even blushed and fought in the air.

"Help! Come on! Come on!"

When they were at a loss, suddenly there was another shrill scream from the crowd.

This time, it was an older female aristocrat. She used to be a famous philanthropist in the empire, claiming to have helped countless girls from impoverished galaxies come to the Central Star to realize their dreams. But in fact, she is also the leader of the largest underground human/trafficking organization in the entire empire, with a complete industrial chain.

Yesterday, a young girl who was working hard to become a model on an unknown little planet may be kidnapped the next day, put into a box naked/naked/body, and sold to someone with special hobbies on the central star A middle-aged nobleman, until she was tortured to death, her family would never find her whereabouts.

She also triumphantly declared to other nobles at a banquet that as long as it was the parts and organs of the human body, no matter whether it was male, female, young or old, there was nothing she couldn't get. However, now she raised the knife in her hand high, aimed at her body without blinking, and stabbed it fiercely—

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The screams grew more and more.

The dead mermaids were resurrected again in their eyes, and the fear of being revenge made the nobles flee wildly in the hall, only to find in despair that all exits were blocked at some point——

Only then did they understand that the theme of this banquet was the revenge of the mermaids.

The bloody carnival began, with mourning as the background music, and tears of begging and apology as the sideshow. Hundreds of mermaids watched this scene silently on the wall, with no sorrow or joy, no emotion or desire.

Regret can be smoothed out, hatred can fade away, but the trampled life can never be resurrected.

When all the sounds gradually died down, Gu Xi wore the alliance's most advanced gas mask, stepped on black boots, and walked step by step to the wall of sighs that symbolized the ugliness and evidence of human nature.

He stopped a few meters away from the wall and lowered his head silently, as if he was in a moment of silence for the innocent dead mermaids.

Xu Feng, who was behind him, was also wearing a gas mask of the same style as him. He waved to the soldiers who were cleaning the scene behind him. Immediately, someone brought in a high-power purification fan to remove all the hallucinogens in the air. suck away.

"save……"

From the corner came a weak cry for help.

"Ah, there is another fish that slipped through the net."

Xu Feng walked over and saw that it was Earl Lian. As he drew his gun, he sighed: "Your vitality is stronger than a brain worm, I really admire it."

But Rao is still alive, and even the earl's consciousness is still indulged in the illusion. He struggled to raise his head, and the last picture he saw in his unworthy life was Lin Xiaodong standing in front of him and smiling at him:

"Go to hell to reflect."

"Bah!"

A gunshot rang out and everything went silent again.

The soldiers brought barrels of oil and spilled it on the ground, on the walls, and on the dead bodies of nobles. After all the preparations were done, Xu Feng walked up to Gu Xi and said softly, "It's time to go, Marshal."

Gu Xi's tightly closed eyes trembled slightly.

He opened his eyes, took a last look at the wall of sighs, took the silver lighter handed by Xu Feng without saying a word, turned around and walked outside the hall.

The moment he stepped out of the palace gate, he threw the lit lighter behind him without looking back.

The flames rose more than two meters high in an instant, and soon, the entire hall burned and collapsed in the raging fire... until it completely turned into a pile of useless ruins.

The hot and bright fire was reflected in Gu Xi's dark eyes, but even the high temperature of thousands of degrees Celsius could not melt the ice in the man's eyes that was condensed from hatred and grief.

*

"What did you say!?" The doctor was shocked and knocked over the teacup. "Gu Xi set the mermaid palace on fire? And those nobles, have already...?"

"Yes," the subordinate said, "they are all dead."

But the Doctor quickly regained his composure, or semblance of composure.

He immediately asked, "Isn't it found in the research room? During this period of time, I was closely watched by the military, and it was difficult for them to relax their vigilance against me, but I can't make any mistakes."

The subordinate shook his head: "No. Doctor, just two days ago, we finally made a breakthrough!"

"Really?" The doctor's eyes lit up, "Tell me about it in detail!"

The subordinate said: "The mermaid we have cultivated already has self-consciousness, and has successfully passed the basic personality test and sensory test. Doctor, do you want to see him?"

Hearing his words, the doctor nodded without hesitation and ordered, "Take me there."

He followed his subordinates into the aircraft and rushed all the way to the location of the secret laboratory.

On the way to Central Park, the doctor who had not been out for a long time suddenly asked, "What does this smell? The fragrance of flowers?"

"It's Lily," the subordinate replied, "I don't know who uploaded it on the star network first, saying that the last mermaid in the world loves Lily, and now the lilies of the entire Central Star are gathered here."

The doctor frowned and asked him to park the aircraft in mid-air, while he looked down at the giant mermaid statue covered with white flowers.

The statue is now crowded with people, and the blooming lilies spread from below the pedestal in all directions, even covering the entire park lawn. The once green and grassy Central Park has now completely turned into a sea of ​​lilies.

There are good and bad human beings in this world, some have been degenerate and hopeless, but most of them still have a heart that can perceive kindness. Their hearts could not be conveyed to the other side, so they could only express their gratitude to the mermaid with bunches of pure and flawless lilies.

The doctor looked at them incomprehensibly. After a while, he snorted: "I'm really full. I'm bored, let's go."

He remembered the unhappy conversation he had with Lin Xiaodong in this park again.

This was their first and last meeting.

Although he is obsessed with a mysterious species like mermaid, the doctor still feels very uncomfortable with the way Lin Xiaodong looked at him, as if in the eyes of the other party, he is a scientific research genius with a double degree and a high IQ. Not even as valuable as a weed on the side of the road.

Afterwards, Lin Xiaodong also asked someone to bring him a sentence, saying that those who play with genes will only end up perishing. The doctor scoffed at this.

Shallow, he thought.

The aircraft continued to drive and took them to a towering 100-story building.

This is a building disguised as a bustling shopping mall, with normal parking lots on the first and second floors, but only by pressing the elevator buttons in a specific order can you reach the deeper underground experiment site.

After layers of verification, the last door finally opened slowly.

Under the pale laboratory light, the culture chamber filled with biological nutrient solution glowed with green light, and a flawless mermaid lay quietly inside. He closed his eyes tightly, his limbs relaxed naturally, his curly black hair floated gently in the nutrient solution, and his fair and handsome face revealed a trace of serene silence.

And looking at his eyebrows, he looked like Lin Xiaodong.

The doctor's eyes shot/fired with a gleam of excitement.

He walked down the stairs quickly, and excitedly pressed his hand on the glass of the training cabin. The man outlined the mermaid's face with obsessive eyes, and couldn't help sighing: "It's so beautiful..."

Hearing the sound, the mermaid's eyelids trembled slightly and slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes are light gray, and through the flowing nutrient solution, there is an inexplicable programmatic indifference, which makes the doctor subconsciously stunned for a moment - how does this feel a bit like a robot controlled by a light brain?

But soon the mermaid returned to normal. He blinked his eyes, tilted his head, and looked at the doctor in a white coat in front of him with an ignorant and innocent look. When he saw the young man's hand pressing on the cabin door, he also stretched out his hand in a similar way, pressed his palm to the same position, and then let out a pleasant chuckle.

"Does he have a name?"

The doctor listened to the mermaid's crisp laughter with intoxication. His long-cherished wish came true. As a young and famous scientific research genius, he gained an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and vanity.

"This is the greatest research humankind has ever done!" he exclaimed to the researchers in the lab. "Look at this! Obedient, well-behaved, with all the qualities you want him to have... Countless people will be grateful to me. !"

This is not a simple cloning, but artificial control of genetic variables, setting the personality, signs and appearance of the cloned creature in advance, and perfectly customizing his ideal "that he".

In the doctor's view, this is not called a replacement, it is just that people's lost loved ones come back to them in a different way.

The mermaid seemed to have noticed that he was distracted, and through the glass, he tapped a certain position on the culture cabin.

The doctor came to his senses and couldn't wait to press the button to open the hatch.

He couldn't wait for a second!

The subordinate next to him hurriedly stopped: "No, Doctor, it hasn't passed the emotional test..."

But when he spoke up, it was too late.

The button was pressed, the hatch of the training cabin opened with a sound, and the mermaid who finally got free propped up on the ground and slowly got up. To stop his subordinate's head, twist it like a ball—

"click"

A crisp, crisp fracture sounded.

The laboratory was dead silent.

The mermaid quickly let go, and the subordinate who couldn't rest assured immediately fell limply to the ground.

The doctor's smile froze on his face. He stumbled back two steps and shouted in panic, "Security! Shoot him to death for me!"

A group of security guards with live ammunition rushed out immediately, but the mermaid was faster than them, and had already stretched his arms and held the Doctor in front of him as a hostage. The doctor struggled desperately in his arms with his eyes wide open, and asked intermittently, "You... how could you..."

How could a mermaid who did not record any negative emotions suddenly mutate into a killing machine! ?

The mermaid with a familiar face looked at him indifferently, grinned with sharp teeth, and ripped off a piece of flesh on the doctor's shoulder.

"Ah-!!!" The doctor screamed, and the other researchers were also frightened to fight - this mermaid not only had its own violent gene, but even returned to its ancestors!

In the panic, the mermaid destroyed the exit and oxygen supply system, and the original secret laboratory was completely turned into a closed room. But before the oxygen in the laboratory runs out, what awaits them will be the hell they created with their own hands...

"Ah sneeze!"

Lin Xiaodong, who was far away in another world, sneezed suddenly.

"Who is talking about me?" He rubbed his nose and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Tong, when those people took my blood and extracted cells, you were sure that you wouldn't be taken away and cloned secretly. A row of mini-mermaids?"

System: "I scrambled the genetic sequence. Under normal probability, there is only a 0.01 percent chance of being able to clone a living thing."

"Isn't it still possible to succeed!"

"Don't worry," the system snorted, "it's like a building that happens to be made of stone without calculating the force and structure. It won't take long for the genes to collapse."

But it still didn't tell Lin Xiaodong.

If it's just a simple genetic collapse, it's fine, if the already precarious chain is forcibly changed by an external force...

What the consequences will be at that time, even the system cannot predict.

"But you should take care of yourself first," the system urged. "Look at the information I have prepared for you. They are all classic secrets that match this era and your current identity. Maybe you will use it someday."

Lin Xiaodong was suspicious: "When did you become so proactive in caring about me?"

Not normal.

He clicked on the data package displayed on the panel.

"The Training of a Lady", "The Arrival of the Eldest Lady", "Three Words, Make a Man Fascinated by Me"... There is also a book "How to Wear a Cheongsam Out of Femininity" that blinded Lin Xiaodong's eyes.

are you crazy! ! ! !
