Chapter 75 The Mystery of Space
Lin Che's body fell backwards weakly, and Su Wanqing hurriedly supported him.
His face was as pale as a piece of paper, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his lips had lost their color.
He is in a coma.
"Che!" Su Wanqing called out anxiously, shaking his body constantly.
He showed no reaction, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Su Wanqing checked Lin Che's breathing and heartbeat, and everything was normal.
However, he looked too weak, as if he would disappear at any moment.
"System, is there any way to save him?" Su Wanqing asked the jade bracelet on her wrist.
"Scanning... The target's vital signs are stable, but his mental state is extremely unstable. It is recommended to use a neurostabilizer or try mental stimulation." The mechanical voice of the system came.
Su Wanqing rummaged through the space and finally found a bottle of nerve stabilizer.
She carefully injected the medicine into Lin Che's body, but the effect was not obvious.
Lin Che was still unconscious.
She thought of the data chip Elena had left behind. Perhaps that chip contained the answer to Lin Che's mystery.
Su Wanqing hesitated for a moment and inserted the chip into an interface on the space console.
The chip was read and an encrypted file appeared in front of her.
She entered the password, the file was decrypted, and a detailed research log appeared before her.
The contents of the diary shocked her.
Just as she was flipping through the diary, Lin Che suddenly opened her eyes.
But that was no longer the Lin Che she was familiar with.
His eyes were sharp and cold, filled with alienation and vigilance. His expression had also changed dramatically, his once gentle face now filled with indifference and disdain.
"Are you Aze?" Su Wanqing asked vigilantly.
"I am Lin Che, also Ye." The voice was deep and magnetic, yet it carried a chilling chill.
Su Wanqing was shocked. "You... what other personality are you of Lin Che? Where's Aze?"
"You can say that." "Ye" slowly sat up, his movements elegant and steady, like a well-trained agent.
"I was forcibly separated and restrained during the institute's experiments. I can only briefly control my body under certain conditions."
Su Wanqing's mind was in a mess.
"You...you're talking nonsense!" Su Wanqing tried to refute, but her voice sounded so weak.
"Don't believe it? You can take a look at this." "Ye" pointed to the research log in Su Wanqing's hand.
"It records part of Lin Che's experience as a test subject, confirming everything I said."
Su Wanqing reread the research log, and the contents of the log shocked her even more.
Lin Che's childhood was not as peaceful and happy as he said.
He was sent to the research institute since he was a child and subjected to various cruel experiments.
He was injected with various viruses and drugs and exposed to various dangerous environments.
He was able to gain water-based abilities because researchers at the institute implanted a special gene into him.
This gene allows him to control the water element, but it also causes him to suffer great pain.
"I see." Su Wanqing sighed inwardly. She began to understand Lin Che's pain and struggle.
At this moment, the system suddenly popped up an important reminder: "The synchronization rate between the space and the host's biological fluctuations has increased. The space structure can be reorganized. Please choose: A. Sacrifice 30% of the resources in exchange for the space's ability to permanently accommodate living people; B. Keep all resources but give up this function."
"Warning: This choice is irreversible, and must be made before Lin Che leaves the space, otherwise you will lose this upgrade opportunity."
Su Wanqing looked at "Ye". She knew that this choice was crucial to them.
"Ye, what do you think?" Su Wanqing asked.
"Choose A," Night said without hesitation. "This space is extremely important to us. If it can permanently house living people, we can build a true shelter."
"But that would result in a huge loss of supplies." Su Wanqing hesitated.
"Supplies can be obtained again, but safety cannot be replaced." "Ye" said calmly.
"Furthermore, if option A is chosen, the nature of the space may change and it will no longer be just a simple storage function."
He paused and continued, "I can sense that this space hides deeper secrets. Only by upgrading the space can we unlock these secrets."
Su Wanqing took a deep breath. She knew he was right.
She pressed the confirmation button and chose to sacrifice 30% of the supplies in exchange for the ability of the space to permanently accommodate living people.
The system immediately began to reorganize, and the space began to vibrate violently. A large amount of materials began to disappear, as if being sucked into a bottomless pit.
Su Wanqing held Lin Che's hand tightly, her heart filled with uneasiness.
She didn't know what this upgrade would bring.
After a few minutes, the shaking finally stopped and the space returned to calm, but a huge change had occurred.
The originally empty warehouse complex now has some other buildings.
Several new areas are unlocked, containing various equipment and materials.
More importantly, the space can now accommodate three living people.
"Ye, how do you feel?" Su Wanqing asked.
"I'm fine," Night said. "Just feeling a little tired."
He looked at Su Wanqing, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
"Thank you, Su Wanqing."
"You're welcome," Su Wanqing said. "We're partners, aren't we?"
Night was silent for a moment before slowly nodding. "Yes, we are partners."
Just as Su Wanqing was about to ask some more questions, the system prompt sounded again.
This time, it was a prompt tone that "Ye" had never heard before.
"Warning: Unknown signal source detected, attempting to trace..."
Su Wanqing clenched her fingers tightly, feeling the last violent vibration of the space.
30% of the supplies were what she had accumulated with great difficulty, enough to last for a long time in the apocalypse.
But at this moment, she had no regrets.
“How do you feel?” She looked at Lin Che, or rather, at the “night” that was gradually dissipating.
"Weak," Night's voice was even deeper than before, carrying a subtle hint of pain. "The energy impact of the spatial restructuring... is greater than I imagined."
Lin Che's originally calm face was a little distorted at this moment. He seemed to be under tremendous pressure and subconsciously grabbed Su Wanqing's arm.
Su Wanqing observed him carefully. His face was pale, but his breathing was steady.
He did not have convulsions all over his body like before, nor did he show any other abnormal symptoms.
"System, is the space reorganization complete?" Su Wanqing asked.
"Space reorganization is complete. The space capacity has been increased to three people. The host can enter permanently, the first guest can stay for 72 hours, and the second guest can stay for 24 hours. Timeout will trigger a space rejection reaction." The system's mechanical voice was emotionless.
Countless thoughts flashed through Su Wanqing's mind. Three people meant she could bring more people into the safe space.
This meant that she could build a true refuge, a haven that could withstand the storms of the end times.
"Che...how do you feel now?" Su Wanqing asked softly. She tried her best to make her voice sound gentle, not wanting to arouse any discomfort in him.
Lin Che slowly opened his eyes, his gaze clear and calm, as if the previous "night" had never existed.
He looked at Su Wanqing blankly, his face full of confusion.
"What's wrong with me? What happened?" He rubbed his temples, as if trying hard to recall what had just happened, but to no avail.
Su Wanqing's heart sank. As expected, he couldn't remember anything.
"You were unconscious. Just now...just now you just had a nightmare." Su Wanqing tried to cover up the truth with the simplest language.
Lin Che frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with Su Wanqing's explanation.
"A nightmare? All I remember is... a pounding headache, and then nothing else."
Just when Su Wanqing was about to say something else, the voice of "Ye" suddenly sounded in her mind.
"Don't tell him," Night's voice was weak, but full of warning.
"Telling him everything you know could put him in even greater danger."
Su Wanqing looked up in surprise. She tried to communicate with "Ye" through her mind, but found that his consciousness was very weak and almost disappeared.
"Why...why didn't you tell me?" Su Wanqing asked, a little puzzled.
"Time is running out," Night said with difficulty. "Remember, the virus strain carried by Lin Che is the closest version to the vaccine prototype. The institute has been hunting him down in order to extract this virus and create the final vaccine. But the extraction process... may result in the death of the host."
Su Wanqing's body trembled violently. She finally understood why "Ye" had concealed it so much.
"Vaccine? What vaccine?" she muttered to herself, a cruel reality emerging in her mind.
Lin Che is not just a used experimental subject, he is also the last hope of mankind.
"More importantly," Night's voice grew fainter.
"This virus wasn't a lab leak as officially claimed... but rather a premeditated release. The goal was to identify humans who could coexist with the virus and gain enhanced abilities... in preparation for a mysterious organization's 'New World Project.'"
Su Wanqing's heart almost jumped out of her chest. She couldn't believe that the truth of the end of the world was so cruel.
"New World Project?" she repeated the word, her voice trembling.
"E-3 has been sacrificed," Night said. "And E-1 and E-2… they shared knowledge of a crucial part of this project. They were designed as 'living keys'… Only by gathering biological samples from all three can the complete research data be unlocked."
"Ye...you...you..." Su Wanqing tried to ask something, but found that "Ye"'s consciousness had completely disappeared.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
"Che, how are you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" She turned her head and looked at Lin Che with concern.
Lin Che shook her head. "I'm fine, but... I feel a little weird."
He raised his arm and examined his skin closely.
"Look, there seemed to be something here just now, but now it has disappeared."
He pointed to an area on his arm where gray lines had appeared, but which had now completely returned to normal.
Su Wanqing's heartbeat quickened. She knew what it was. It was the virus within Lin Che, stirring restlessly.
"This... is just your illusion." Su Wanqing suppressed her worries and tried to comfort him.
“Hallucination… maybe.” Lin Che sighed. He seemed to feel a little unfamiliar with his own body.
Su Wanqing looked at him silently, the messages left by "Ye" circling in her mind.
The premeditated release of the virus, the screening and enhancement of humans, the New World Plan, the living key... these information made her shocked and uneasy.
She knew that behind this apocalypse, there was a huge conspiracy.
"System, display the spatial structure diagram." Su Wanqing said to the jade bracelet on her wrist.
A three-dimensional spatial diagram appeared before her eyes. The original floating warehouse complex had now become a small living area, including simple residences, storage areas, and a mysterious "core room."
"Core room?" Su Wanqing asked doubtfully.
"The core room is the key area for maintaining the stable operation of the space. It is also the functional center newly added after the space upgrade. The host can set up the space and manage items here." The mechanical voice of the system came.
Su Wanqing nodded. It seemed that the space upgrade brought more than just increased capacity, but also many more unknown possibilities.
She took a deep breath and began to explore this new space. She found that the temperature and humidity inside the space could be adjusted according to her wishes, and the light source was softer and more comfortable.
"System, display the spatial stability."
"Space stability: 85%."
"Maintaining spatial stability requires the consumption of specific resources. It is recommended that you regularly invest basic structural energy to maintain spatial stability above 90%. Otherwise, the ability to accommodate living people will gradually deteriorate."
Su Wanqing's heart sank. Upgrading the space wasn't a one-time effort; she needed to regularly invest in supplies to maintain its stable operation.
"It seems that my journey to stockpiling is still very long." She murmured to herself.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed a forgotten telescope lying quietly in the corner of the space.
She found it in the abandoned hospital and used it to observe zombies.
She picked up the telescope, walked to the window of the room and looked out.
Outside, there was a mess of ruins: shattered buildings, scattered vehicles, and rags swaying in the wind.
The smell of the end of the world permeates the air.
"Che, you should take a rest." Su Wanqing turned her head and looked at Lin Che.
"I still have something to take care of."
Lin Che nodded and closed her eyes.
Su Wanqing pointed the telescope into the distance, her gaze firm and sharp.
She knew that the road ahead would be even more difficult.
She must protect Lin Che, uncover the truth of the apocalypse, and fight for the future of mankind.
But she also knew she had to make some tough decisions.
