Chapter 1329: Everything, in Fact, Is Part of an Ongoing Experiment?
The entire disaster, from its outbreak to now, including the constant evolution of zombies and the endless emergence of various variation zombies-everything, in fact, is part of an ongoing experiment?
At this thought, Ling Mo couldn’t stay calm.
The theory of experimentation isn’t the issue… but the question is, who would be conducting such an experiment?
What kind of person could treat all of humanity as lab rats for this experiment?
“Maybe it’s not a person at all…” Old Lan took a deep breath and said.
“Back then, although I wasn’t some remarkable Scholar, I did know a few things that ordinary people don’t. How should I put it? Let me speak plainly: in the field of biological gene research, the achievements of the scientific community have indeed surpassed the imagination of ordinary people. Some things that are hard for regular folks to grasp have already been born in Laboratories, or are about to be.”
Ling Mo pondered for a moment, then said, “So, by the same logic, what we know about biochemical weapons is just the tip of the iceberg, right? Maybe there really is a weapon that could turn all of humanity into zombies.”
“That’s possible. Of course, I don’t know much about military matters, and anything more would just be baseless speculation. The point is, although human scientists have created many unbelievable things, none of them include a virus as… perfect as this one. I think the same goes for biochemical weapons. Ling Mo, do you understand what I mean? This virus couldn’t have been created by accident-it’s just… too flawless. In fact, the way it selects larger creatures for infection already surprised me. If I have to say it… I feel like it’s avoiding those weak but extremely numerous insect swarms, thereby ensuring that humans remain the primary Experimental Subjects.”
“Just imagine, if flies or mosquitoes also turned into zombie-like creatures, would humanity still exist today?” Old Lan said.
Ling Mo was silent for a while, then suddenly reacted: “Wait, did you just say… humans as the main Experimental Subjects? Isn’t it zombies?”
“That’s… just my personal feeling. Although all current evidence suggests that if there really is such a thing as Experimental Subjects, it should be the constantly evolving and mutating zombies, but for some reason… I think it’s humans. More precisely, humans like you. Ling Mo, if you can keep surviving… even through the final wave… then maybe you’ll be the one to learn the truth. As for me, I still have…”
Ling Mo had only heard half of this before his pupils couldn’t help but contract. The final wave? What did Old Lan mean? The invasion of Central City?
He suddenly realized that this Old Men was not simple.
Ever since he dumped Old Lan at the Base, he’d rarely bothered with him-after all, research is a long-term endeavor, and results take time. But now, it seemed Old Lan had clearly discovered something during this period.
Yet he hadn’t proactively reported to him?
So when Ling Mo heard Old Lan say “maybe you’ll learn the truth,” he was about to interrupt him, but just then, the voice on the other end of the Communicator suddenly cut off, followed by a “thud.”
Ling Mo froze: “Hello?”
There was still no sound from the other side, and a very ominous feeling suddenly rose in Ling Mo’s mind.
Just then, he heard a faint “shhh-!” sound from the receiver.
This sound was strange…
“Hello?!” Ling Mo hurriedly shouted, then blurted out, “I’ve already sent Tom to check on you!”
As he spoke, he gave the squirrel a look, and the latter snapped out of her daze and waved her hand to indicate there was no other Communicator.
Li Yalin came over at this moment, leaning in to listen carefully.
“Shhh-!”
“Ah!” Li Yalin frowned and let out a low cry, then looked up at Ling Mo. “The sound is gone.”
Immediately after, another sound came from the receiver…
First footsteps, then a girl’s scream, followed by a chaotic jumble of footsteps and voices.
After more than ten seconds, someone finally noticed the Communicator.
“Hello?”
On Ling Mo’s end, his expression had already turned gloomy.
“How’s Old Lan?”
“He’s unconscious.”
“What do you mean?”
“We’re not sure yet, but at first glance, he looks like he’s just asleep-no external injuries, breathing steady, but he’s completely unresponsive to outside stimuli… By the way, who are you?” 𝘙ÂΝО𝐛ЁS
Anyone who could speak directly with Old Lan should be a captain at the Base, right?
“I’m Ling Mo.”
“Ling… Ling Mo?!”
Before the other side could recover from their shock, Ling Mo had already closed the Communicator.
Clearly, Old Lan had more to tell him…
So, who didn’t want him to speak, and caused him to fall unconscious?
No matter what, the culprit was connected to that “shhh” sound.
Thinking of this, he immediately dialed another number.
“Zhang Yu, I’m…”
“Boss! Where did you run off with that madman Yuwen Xuan? Tom and I are about to drop dead from all this work! Mainly, I’m about to drop dead!” As soon as the call connected, Zhang Yu’s endless complaints poured out like a resentful wife, “Neither of you Bosses are around, do you have any idea how miserable it is for a wage slave like me? Seriously, I’m just a worker, and you guys keep dumping everything on me-don’t you feel bad? At this rate, if I don’t get bitten to death by zombies, I’ll be crushed to death by you two!”
“Yuwen Xuan eloped with the zombies.”
“What?!”
“Old Lan was ambushed.”
“What?!”
“When he wakes up, contact me immediately, and have someone trustworthy guard him. Also, check everyone who’s been near the Laboratory recently-don’t miss a single one.”
“…Uh… Where are you?!” Zhang Yu was flustered.
“Falcon.”
“Huh??”
“You’ll know soon enough. Oh, and remember to look after Lan Lan-send your wife over to comfort her.”
“I’m already working myself to the bone for you guys, and now you want to use my wife too! Besides, I don’t even have a wife!”
“Then send your daughter.”
“You beast…”
After hanging up, Ling Mo turned to Li Yalin: “Senior Sister, you heard everything just now, right? Any thoughts?”
“Hmm…” Li Yalin’s eyes changed color slightly, clearly searching her memory for comparisons.
With such a slight change, the highly nearsighted bookworm squirrel naturally didn’t notice a thing.
After more than ten seconds, she shook her head and said, “No. But I did hear something else.”
“I heard the sound of Liquid…”
Liquid… but according to what was just said, Old Lan had no external injuries…
“Yeah, it didn’t sound like someone had their Liquid forcibly spilled.” Xia Na analyzed.
“…In any case, this at least proves one thing,” Ling Mo said, “Old Lan wasn’t talking nonsense.”
But there’d been no clues before, so why did something suddenly happen now…
Ling Mo’s gaze swept over the corpse, and he suddenly had a feeling…
Maybe it’s because the experiment is about to yield results?
Only at this moment is the experiment at its most intense, and it’s also at this time that the Experimental Subjects start to show all kinds of extreme reactions. And when this reaction happens to humans, maybe it turns into the realization that they exist as Experimental Subjects…
“Hey, do you think it could be…”
“If you say aliens, I swear I’ll smack your butt.” Ling Mo immediately cut off Yu Shiran.
The guy in the biochemical suit was still trying to join the conversation…
“So, master, where do you plan to look for clues?” Black Silk asked.
Wait for Old Lan to wake up? Not to mention not knowing when he’ll wake up… After being with Ling Mo for so long, it’s clear this human isn’t the type to sit around and wait.
And Black Silk could more or less guess what her master was thinking…
The moment there’s a mastermind, his eyes light up…
Indeed, compared to blindly evolving, it’s obviously easier to drag out some person… or thing and beat it up!
“Director is back!” The squirrel suddenly shouted, then made a “shh~” gesture to Ling Mo and the others.
