Quadruple split

"All dead."

At the moment when everyone was choking at the scene before them, Gu Xiaole perfectly fulfilled his duties in the team and said calmly: "Although the body looks intact, I can't feel the existence of any 'spirit', so although I can't accurately judge the time, these people have been dead on the spiritual level for at least hundreds of years."

"I think so."

Also keeping calm, not shaken by the extremely shocking scene in front of him, Pei Xi nodded slightly with a calm expression, and then took the lead to walk into the 'Observation Area A' in front of him, and walked straight to the woman with closed eyes who seemed to be floating in the pillar closest to him, and said to everyone without looking back: "Please stay alert, I will investigate first, Ye Ge, come with me."

Ji Xiaoge swallowed nervously, but nodded gently, smiled at the half-dragon knight who cast a concerned look at him, and then tapped the ground with his toes, and caught up with Pei Xi with a few takeoffs and landings with the help of his wings.

At the same time, Largo's tall figure, which exuded a sense of security, also appeared beside Pei Xi. He looked vigilantly around with a solemn expression, while protecting his childhood sweetheart under his shadow, and his energy was unprecedentedly concentrated.

After Ji Xiaoge was "recruited" by Pei Xi as a technician, Lu Jiang, who was supposed to be in the auxiliary position, took over his task, turning into a light bird hovering over everyone's head, fulfilling the duty of an empty sentry.

Jadka and Yaya stood on the left and right sides of the team tacitly, guarding against Largo and Lu Jiang's blind spots of vision and perception. Because everyone had already communicated frequently in recent days, the current vigilance can be said to be smooth and the cooperation is not to say that it is watertight and seamless, but it is definitely worthy of the word "precision".

Compared with the previous alert mode in the exploration, the only difference now is that it is not Wang Badan who is the "bearing" in the middle with Mo Tan, but Gu Xiaole who is maintaining [Qingxingdeng] and [Fake Mirage].

"I can also feel that this place is not dangerous."

Mo Tan held his most proficient [Akatsuki·Ruthless Sword] in reverse and said to the great Onmyoji beside him: "Sister Xiaole, you don't need to be distracted, just concentrate on controlling the Shikigami."

Gu Xiaole smiled and said happily: "Tanjiang is really considerate, but don't worry, although I only have some mediocre skills, this level of concentration is not a problem at all, I can even recite the multiplication formula to you!"

"No, there is no need for the multiplication formula."

Mo Tan smiled, then squinted his eyes and looked at the surrounding "tubes" that looked like load-bearing columns, but there were corpses floating inside.

Although the vision is not as good as Ji Xiaoge in the game, the half-dragon is actually not bad in this regard, so although it is not clear at a farther distance, Mo Tan can still clearly see what state the "people" in most of the tubes are in.

First of all, there is only one "person" in each tube, whether it is a tall ogre, or a dwarf or goblin that can only be as big as an ogre if three or five are stacked together, they all have an independent tube.

Then, there are only two people of the same race at most, and their genders are definitely different. There will not be a third human, elf or orc. In other words, there are only two observed individuals of each race bound here, and they must be one man and one woman.

The last detail is that Mo Tan noticed that all male individuals were not wearing clothes, and there were no obvious external injuries on their bodies. In terms of age, they were all in the prime of their respective races, such as 30-year-old humans, 400-year-old elves, and 50-year-old dwarves. In terms of height and weight, based on Mo Tan's understanding of the worldview of [Innocent Realm] in the past year, he felt that these people were also in a very standard range.

As for why only male individuals were mentioned, it was naturally because in Mo Tan's eyes, all the female individuals in those tubes were shrouded in a shadow from the neck down. As for the reason, he knew without thinking that it must be because those women were naked like the other half of the men, so the system made this scene largely harmonized in front of him, a man with normal sexual orientation.

"Will it be uncomfortable?"

At this moment, Gu Xiaole next to him suddenly turned his head and asked curiously, and raised his chin to the tube closer to the two of them, where there was a two-headed ogre whose skin was frighteningly white due to lack of sunlight, and whose body was so huge that it could fit Largo in its entirety.

"I can handle this."

Mo Tan glanced at the two-headed ogre, which was much stronger than Anthony Dabus, and answered honestly, "So it's not a big problem."

"That's good, you can relax a little. If I'm not wrong, there shouldn't be any danger here."

Gu Xiaole smiled and winked playfully, "Girls' sixth sense is super accurate!"

Mo Tan nodded slightly and replied with the same smile, "I know, Sister Xiaole."

"That's good to know. Then I'll turn around a little and let [Qingxingdeng] "light up" all the corners that may have been missed before. Mo-chan, don't forget to pay more attention to the little pigeon. She is not as brave as me. If she can sense your sight, it should be a little better."

Because Mo Tan had already passed the 'inspection' with near-perfect results in the past few days, Gu Xiaole, who would not have had any objections to Ji Xiaoge's online boyfriend unless he was possessed by Ji Xiaodao, obviously had no intention of being single with him. The chat took too long, so after a few simple chats, he left Mo Tan's side and walked slowly with his hands behind his back.

She never felt that she was a civilized and polite girl, so naturally she would not chat with her good sister's online dating partner. Although with Ji Xiaoge by her side, Sister Xiaole would not mind spending more time with Tan. If Jiang chatted for a few words, she would even be very happy to talk nonsense with them all over the world, but if it was a one-on-one chat between the two of them, even if it was not the current 'working status', she would definitely try to avoid it.

In short, although this level of avoiding suspicion is not an obligation, it is the most basic courtesy.

And Mo Tan knew from the beginning that Sister Xiao Le was a very measured girl, so he also didn't mind establishing a good relationship with her as 'Mo'. As for more things, such as whether the other party thought she was a good person, and whether she felt that she was compatible with her. It would be very comfortable to chat by himself. Whether he would want to say more without realizing it, to be honest, he had never considered it.

After all, in the subjective impression of Mo Tan's current personality, he has never been a good person, and based on this overly subjective conclusion, he seems to lack self-awareness.

Of course, considering that there won't be any trouble at this stage, it doesn't hurt to be silent. As for what will happen in the future...well, let's talk about it later.

In this way, a quarter of an hour passed quietly. During this period, although everyone was not too nervous, they still maintained a considerable degree of seriousness, and could even clearly see the situation in the 'Observation Area A' Yaya, who then fell into madness, looked at the surrounding movements with a stern expression, and did not bark around as cutely as usual.

In the end, Peixi, who had been discussing something with Ji Xiaoge in a low voice since just now, took a deep breath, turned around and looked around at everyone, then broke the silence and said, "Since it has been initially determined that there is no danger here, let's Come here, I'll share the results of the investigation with you."

So, at the request of their employer, all the members of the Paw Patrol team temporarily lowered their guard and formed a semicircle around Pexi.

"Let's talk about the results first."

Peixi patted the tube next to him that contained a human female corpse, and said lightly: "Based on the "Observation Log" under this ecological tube, this person's name is Polis, who is 29 years old. A woman is not a victim of an inhumane experiment, but a volunteer participating in an observational experiment.”

Jadeka was stunned for a moment and repeated in a rather confused tone: "Volunteer?"

"That's right, volunteer."

Pexi nodded and continued to explain: "This is a three-month observation project. During this period, everyone will be placed in an 'ecological tube' unconsciously for twenty-seven days in a row to serve this institution." Provide the data, and then they will be awakened on the night of the 28th day, and after a period of recovery and rest, they will leave here with a rich reward. "

Lu Jiang looked up at the woman in the eco-tube who had her hair shaved and was covered in shadows from the neck down, and hesitated: "So she was deceived?"

"It's possible, but I personally prefer that she was not deceived."

Pexi turned around and looked up at the human woman in front of her who was in the transparent liquid with a peaceful expression. She said without looking back: "Although she did not leave here alive, those who were in this research institution are still there." People who worked were also buried here, and the last record in the "Observation Diary" was on the twenty-first day after she came here. The form of the record was relatively peaceful, and it did not treat Polly like a test subject. silk to describe.”

"Almost everyone here died unconsciously. Although it cannot be called peaceful, it is not painful either."

Gu Xiaole stood next to Peixi like a ghost, and added: "If you die in anger or resentment, it will leave traces that are difficult to erase with time, but it is surprisingly peaceful here."

Lujiang nodded and said that he had no objection to the two 'professionals'' comments and that he just made a casual comment.

However, Jadeka asked curiously: "But Xiaole, you also said that they died unconsciously, so it stands to reason that even if they were killed, they should not be able to produce emotions such as anger and resentment, right?"

“Just because humans can’t do it, doesn’t mean the spirit can’t do it.”

Gu Xiaole answered with a smile and spread his hands: "Of course, this is just my personal opinion and is for your reference only."

But at this moment, Ji Xiaoge suddenly raised his head and said seriously: "Sister Peixi and Sister Xiaole are right. I just tried to extract a little from the savings unit of this ecological group [Expired No. Third Generation Vitamin Liquid], even analysis is not needed, the above items The description directly states, 'The vitality and physical vitality of the immersed person can be guaranteed during the shelf life, and it has been optimized to avoid possible side effects such as leaving the root cause of rickets.' If you don't want to keep these subjects alive, what is mentioned in the description Optimization is meaningless.”

"Oh, that's for sure."

Therefore, Lujiang, who was well aware of how overbearing and authoritative the item descriptions and notes in the game [Innocent Boundary] were, immediately expressed his understanding and agreed without hesitation that these 'volunteers' would not be killed in theory. .

"Then the question comes..."

Mo Tan's eyes narrowed slightly and asked Peixi: "If we assume that the shutdown of these ecological tubes caused the death of these subjects, and the reason for the shutdown of the ecological tubes is closely related to the corpses we saw on the first day, then What was the decisive factor that caused all of this to happen?”

Pexi shook his head and said calmly: "I don't know, but that should be the answer to the mystery we have been searching for this time, or it may be the necessary condition to solve the mystery."

"This is observation area A, so there should be observation areas B and C deeper in the area."

After being appointed as Peixi's assistant, Ji Xiaoge, who has been taught by the former, pursed his lips, and with an expression that showed that he was scared, but still trying to muster up courage, he said softly: "As long as we continue to explore, we will definitely I can figure out what this place is.”

Perhaps because she was gradually losing her patience with this confusing ancient ruins, the dog girl squatted next to Mo Tan, her posture like a delinquent girl grinding her teeth anxiously.

"Anyway, I will first explain the method of unlocking the log corresponding to the ecological management, and then everyone should seize the time to check all the subjects in this area."

Peixi knelt down, patted the metal plate under the ecological tube, and ordered: "Time is very tight. We must summarize all the logs to the observation station as soon as possible, and extract meaningful content in the process. Try to reduce the burden for the next exploration, then... stop talking nonsense and start speeding up."

Just like that, following the order from the team leader, after everyone briefly learned how to unlock the log (kick off the thick metal plate raised under the eco-tube and take out the log), they began to separate and observe A The district highway collected intelligence, and since the logs were recorded in common language (simplified Chinese characters), this process was very efficient. It only took half an hour for everyone to read all the logs corresponding to the ecological management— —

The preliminary conclusion is that the working atmosphere in this research facility is quite good, and no inhumane research is conducted. Especially the attitude towards these subjects, to use an inappropriate description - medical ethics is almost exhausted.

And this content is consistent with the investigation results of Mo Tan and others the previous week...

almost completely contradictory
