National destiny survival: I am weak and rely on luck to fly

Chapter 193 Solving the Problem at Its Root

When the brother and sister opened their eyes again, they found themselves in an unknown laboratory.

They were fixed on the cold laboratory table, their limbs were tied and they could not move freely.

Faced with this cold and unfamiliar environment, their hearts were filled with anxiety and confusion.

The walls and instruments in the laboratory exuded a cold metallic luster, which made them feel unprecedented loneliness and helplessness.

As soon as the brother and sister regained consciousness, the door of the laboratory slowly opened, and several scientific researchers in white coats stepped into this mysterious space.

Among them, a doctor named Henry Harrison walked up to the siblings. With sharp eyes, he began to ask them about the details of their "animal" abilities.

At this moment, a flash of enlightenment came into Chi Wenxiao's mind.

There is no doubt that this must have been the moment when he and his sister were fighting those predators, and the moment they transformed into beast form and the scene of their fighting after transformation were witnessed by these people.

These researchers have obviously developed a keen interest in their plastic abilities and have come to regard them as special individuals with "animal-type" abilities.

Faced with the doctor's questions, the brother and sister were full of vigilance.

They realize that the capabilities they possess could be both a major scientific discovery for these researchers, but could also become a huge threat to themselves.

Dr. Harrison's patience finally ran out after the siblings were cautious and silent, and refused to reveal any information about their beastly abilities.

So, Dr. Harrison ordered his assistants to take Chi Wenxiao and Chi Wenjing away separately, intending to increase psychological pressure by separating them, forcing them to finally surrender and start cooperating.

Chi Wenxiao knew clearly that these researchers were only interested in their ability to speak.

And once they confess that their beast transformation abilities are not unique to Earth, then the brother and sister may directly become experimental subjects.

However, Chi Wenxiao still overestimated human nature, because from the moment they stepped into the research institute, whether they confessed or not, they were destined to become victims of live experiments.

After the brother and sister were isolated and detained, facing Dr. Harrison's threats, Chi Wenxiao chose to remain silent and refused to respond to Dr. Harrison's request for him to demonstrate his beastly abilities.

Whenever Dr. Harrison got angry about this, he would turn his anger into cruel treatment of Chi Wenxiao.

Chi Wenxiao was injected with unknown drugs, which wreaked havoc in his body, causing unspeakable pain and torture.

In addition to the torture of drugs, there was also physical punishment. In order to force him to submit, daily whipping and electric shocks became commonplace.

During this period of endless suffering, Chi Wenxiao longed to send out a distress signal countless times, hoping that the outside world would lend a helping hand.

But his body was tightly bound to the test bench, unable to make even the slightest movement, let alone operate the light curtain to send information.

He was trapped in this cold and ruthless laboratory, and every breath seemed to remind him of the abyss of despair, but his will did not collapse.

He was not afraid of death, and even when he was in extreme pain he had thoughts of giving up and wanting to die.

However, he could never let go of his concern for his sister, and he even considered sacrificing his own life in exchange for his sister's freedom, but whenever he recalled the indifferent faces of those researchers, this idea would be ruthlessly shattered.

Chi Wenxiao had never seen his sister since they were forced to separate. He only learned from occasional chats with other research assistants that his sister was still here and had not been sent away, but he had no idea where she was exactly.

Deep down in his heart, he didn't know whether his sister Chi Wenjing was alive or dead, which made him dare not give up his own life easily.

He knew that as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he had to hold on.

And that hope is now.

Chi Wenxiao's eyes were full of pleading, and his gaze moved anxiously back and forth between the four people in front of him.

A few minutes ago, Ren Linhe had successfully rescued Xiao Feifei from those mutated creatures. When the two came back, Chi Wenxiao was narrating about the difficult experiences he had gone through during that period.

As Chi Wenxiao told the story, Ren Linhe and Xiao Feifei gradually pieced together the whole incident and gained a general understanding of the situation of Chi Wenxiao and Chi Wenjing.

Shen Nan turned his attention to Ren Linhe. As the captain of the team, Ren Linhe's decision was crucial to whether to assist Chi Wenxiao in rescuing his sister.

At this critical moment, all team members were waiting for Ren Linhe's decision.

Ren Linhe's fingertips lightly touched his chin, which had not been shaved for two days and was already a little rough.

Their goal is to search for the virus concentrate in various laboratories and residential areas. As long as Chi Wenjing is still in this passage, rescuing her is just a matter of convenience and not too difficult.

What Ren Linhe was thinking about was the latest information that Wang Peixiang had just passed on to him.

Survivors from countries such as the Bald Eagle have entered the core area and clashed with the scientific researchers they had met before.

These scientific researchers are just ordinary people. In addition, they cleared out a large number of mutant creatures when entering the core area, so the number of mutant creatures these scientific researchers can control is limited. Their strength is not strong enough, and without powerful bodyguards, these scientific researchers will be killed sooner or later.

Survivors from countries like the bald eagle will soon discover the entrance to this passage.

At that time, who can find the virus extract first will depend entirely on luck.

If being the first to find the virus stock isn't an option, eliminating all competitors is also a viable strategy.

Cut off all potential threats directly at the source and ensure that no one else can find the original virus.

Ren Linhe frowned and fell into deep thought, feeling that this was indeed a feasible strategy.

Chi Wenxiao's eyes were fixed firmly on Ren Linhe. He could clearly feel the strong aura emanating from Ren Linhe.

Especially when Shen Nan called Ren Linhe "Brother Ren", the awe-inspiring name on the leaderboard immediately emerged in Chi Wenxiao's mind.

Ren Linhe and Shen Nan are well-known among the survivors in Xia Country. Chi Wenxiao knows very well that whether he can successfully rescue his sister depends largely on Ren Linhe's attitude and decision-making.

In this tense atmosphere, seeing Ren Linhe frowning in thought, thinking that he was having some difficulties, Chi Wenxiao decided to reveal a piece of information that might be crucial to the entire team.

Although he was unsure of the authenticity of the information, he still chose to speak it out, hoping that this news would increase the hope of rescuing his sister.

"I know where the virus is."

Chi Wenxiao's words caused ripples in the passage.

Shen Wansan and Xiao Feifei showed surprised expressions almost at the same time. They exclaimed in unison: "Do you know the whereabouts of the virus fluid?"

Shen Nan also cast a curious look, trying to verify the authenticity of the news.

Under the spotlight of everyone, Chi Wenxiao felt a sense of pressure.

He swallowed nervously and answered honestly, "I'm not completely sure, but I'm 90% sure." Although his voice trembled slightly, it revealed a firmness.

Ren Linhe stared closely into Chi Wenxiao's eyes and asked seriously, "Where is the virus fluid?" His eyes were sharp, as if they could see through people's hearts and leave them nowhere to hide.

Facing Ren Linhe's scrutiny, Chi Wenxiao's confidence seemed to be shaken. "I don't know the exact location, but Dr. Harrison must know."
