Scarlet Dawn [Apocalypse]

Artificial light is projected from the dome, and directly below it is a transparent rectangular bedroom made entirely of glass, with pink painted furniture, soft plush rugs, and hundreds of people piled up with sofas and beds. Dolls——

Lace, dolls, and bright colors, this is a very exaggeratedly decorated girl's room, wrapped in high-strength special glass, like a gorgeous and delicate cage, these very girly elements are combined together, But it didn't convey the slightest feeling of freshness and cuteness at all. Bai Yi glanced at the empty plastic eyes of the doll, and felt that the layout was weird and uncomfortable.

"This is my little Laura. For more than 400 years, I have kept her like a princess in this room."

Accompanied by whispers, Nicholas walked up to the glass bedroom, pressed his slender palm against the glass wall, and smiled gently and dotingly in his eyes. He lowered his head, pressed his cheek to the glass, and closed his eyes contentedly.

thump-thump-

The glass fused with high-density alloy molecules was extremely strong, but under the continuous impact, the entire wall still trembled slightly uncontrollably.

Bai Yi looked at him in silence, his eyes stretched slightly into the distance, and then he saw something separated from him by a wall, his pure black eyes suddenly became terrified.

On the other side of the glass, where Nicholas's cheeks touched, there was a brown mark mixed with dirty blood and pus. The rancid liquid continuously dripped down the wall, and a zombie wearing a lace dress was clinging to it. Glass, looking at the skeleton, it should be just a young girl who is still developing. Her sparse long hair is dry and tangled, stuck to the body fluid, sticking wetly to her back.

For too long, her eyeballs have been completely rotten, leaving only two black eye sockets, and the teeth on the left side of the cheek are rotten to the point where the teeth inside are exposed. A disgusting water trail was drawn on it.

The zombie noticed that the living person was approaching, and the arm with only bones left was slapping the wall one after another, making that monotonous thumping sound, and its black and yellow teeth were gnawing at the smooth surface of the glass in vain.

"I have a sister who is cute and shy—"

"She never leaves the room, or I'd really like to take her out for a walk—"

"She has been ill for many, many years, she is not very obedient, and cannot be brought out—"

"So I locked her in her room the whole time and stayed with her outside."

……

The conversation in the central square kept resounding in my mind, together with the happy and helpless smile of Nicholas when he mentioned his sister that night. Whether in the past or now, Bai Yi has faced zombies countless times, but it is still the first time. Such a weird feeling at once.

"I'm sorry, little Laura, I know I'm late." Not far away, Nicholas raised his head, his cheeks were a little red from the pressure, and his slender fingers slowly stroked the glass wall, tracing Lori's face. The distorted and deformed facial contours, and the zombies on the other side just became more and more crazy with his loving movements.

He is the food in the eyes of Laura who has lost her human consciousness, and Laura who has become a zombie is the sister who will always be loved by Nicholas in his heart—Bai Yi sighed softly in his heart, hesitated for a long time, and still couldn't help asking Said: "How...how did she become like this?"

"The D virus saved me, but it failed to save her," Nicholas said in a very calm voice, and he couldn't hear anything unusual. He bent his fingers and scratched the bridge of the zombie's nose, his eyes bent into a pair of soft smiles Arc, "Because of this incident, Cong Xi has always felt guilty towards me, but I don't blame him at all."

Bai Yi said, "Are you all because of the genetic program?"

Nichols hummed, and said, "Lola and I are identical twins, suffering from the same genetic disease, and receiving free medical care from the alliance together. Hehe, the plot is very old-fashioned, and the ending is also very old-fashioned. Even these few days My ideas have been old-fashioned for a hundred years..."

The unfinished speech came to an abrupt end, and Nicholas hit the glass with a punch. The zombie Lola was disturbed by the heavy blow, but instead became quiet, tilting her rotten and ugly head, staring blankly at the food in front of her.Nicholas lowered his head, his hair hanging down to cover his side face, his back was facing Bai Yi, his bony back trembling very inconspicuously.

"Enhance cell activity and speed up tissue self-healing and repair. At that time, D virus was just a mild and harmless product, but the conditions of action were very random. Congxi did experiments, and the success rate was less than 3%," Nickle "I still can't help but think all these years, why... that lucky person... isn't her?"

"—Lola and I, one has become a waste, and the other has become a monster. This world really treats us brothers and sisters well!"

"Niklus," Bai Yi looked at his back and said slowly, "Is this your reason for destroying the world?"

"Who knows? Do you think about such insignificant things as reasons when you are the craziest?" Nicholas turned to face Bai Yi, leaning back against the glass wall, "I lost Laura, so I want the world to experience this feeling; the D virus saved me, so I want to use it to destroy the world, isn't this kind of causal loop interesting?"

For a moment, Bai Yi was speechless, but the sympathy that had just appeared in his heart was completely wiped out by this sentence of "very interesting", and he buried his misfortune with the world, and finally summed it up into an understatement phrase , this kind of demented lunatic really makes people feel unsympathetic...

"Bye, do you know what time Cong Xi has been waiting for?"

Bai Yi was just silent.

Nicklus knew he was listening, so he continued on his own: "Nine's time is up."

◆

At this time, on the deeper floor of the base, passages and rooms made entirely of glass constitute the entire layout of this floor. This is a depth that cannot be reached by natural light. The cold sea water is as thick as ink, with a gloomy and treacherous blue color. , a terrifying-looking deep-sea fish swims aimlessly close to the glass, gets blocked, and retreats silently into the darkness.

It was pitch black all around, and the only source of light came from the blue-white cold light emitted by the communicator. No sound could be picked up as far as the senses could reach. Silvison took a deep breath. A luminous lead wire in the middle, teasing the fragile and sensitive peripheral nerves.

From the moment they separated, Silverson only received a road map from a communication number with a hidden ID.This set of electronic drawings is very ingenious. The only route that must be passed is marked on the screen. In order to avoid the exposure of the base structure, all redundant parts are replaced with meaningless color blocks.

The five senses that were as keen as a blood beast spread out, and it was surprisingly quiet here. Silveson couldn't figure out Bai Congxi's thoughts at all, but he had no choice but to continue according to the other party's established rules.

——This feeling is really terrible.

According to the map, he turned right again at a T-shaped fork, and the bloody smell that had lingered for a long time became much stronger. With the first step into the corridor, the hard bottom of the military boots hit the ground, as if someone was manipulating it in the dark. Looking at everything, and at this moment, in order to welcome his arrival, with a snap, the light emitters embedded in the top of the passage lit up one after another, and the white light spread into the distance, finally illuminating a slightly open numerical control door at the end of the corridor.

Attracted by the light, the virus-infected fish in the deep sea dragged their mutilated bodies and gathered outside the glass, their eyeballs covered with white membranes rolled and slammed against the wall rigidly and dullly.

In the silence, every slight movement can be magnified infinitely.

Silvesen simply turned off the communicator, his cold eyes were like icicles, and a touch of black and blue merged into the deep sea, which was stripped of his cynicism and coldness, such awe-inspiring aura had almost never appeared on Major General Vatican. On the spot, he took out the handle of the lightsaber from his waist, and his whole body almost turned into a blurry phantom, which disappeared in place in an instant.

In the room at the end of the corridor, a huge cylindrical cultivation cabin stands in the center of the room. The light green nutrient solution exudes ghostly fluorescence, diffuses from the center, and finally dilutes with the darkness.

A naked human body was sleeping in the training cabin. Due to the long-time soaking, the body was pale and bloodless, with slender and beautiful muscle lines. There was a radial brown bullet mark on the left chest and chest, and the soft black hair was floating, blurring the youth. Fine and flexible eyebrows.

Bai Congxi stood quietly in front of the glass cabin, put his hands into the pockets of his protective clothing, and tilted his head slightly. From his angle, he could see the man's straight nose and two thin, slightly parted lips.

"This should be the first time you have officially met, Major General Fan Zhuo, this is what Xiao Yi looks like when he is 25 years old."

In an instant, the electric current splits the darkness, and the lightsaber hits the throat——

Bai Congxi smiled lightly and shook his head, "This opening remark is not surprising at all."

Behind him, Silvison's handsome face emerged from the shadows, his eyelashes raised, and he lightly swept across the human body in the training cabin, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at Bai Congxi who was in front of him again.

"Hello," the Major General said politely, "This is my opening remarks."

Bai Congxi smiled, "If I hadn't been pointed at by you with a sword, I might have taken this friendship seriously."

"Even if I point my sword at you, you can still take this friendship seriously," Silvison said lightly, "After all, you are Bye's father. Before the formal conversation, you should have some necessary courtesy."

"Including drawing the sword?" Bai Congxi asked back.

The corners of Silvison's lips curled up into a smile, but there was a chill in his eyes, "I really dare not take you lightly."

Bai Congxi said, "Actually, I just want to talk to you alone."

Silverson: "It just so happens that I also have a question recently."

"You ask--"

As if responding to Bai Congxi's generosity, he raised his lightsaber, and the scorching air wave approached his neck. The smile on Sylvester's face faded, and he said seriously, "What's the relationship between you and Mr. Quincy?"

"What do you remember?" Bai Congxi asked with a smile.

"I've always felt that I've seen you somewhere before. In Lothar, I accidentally browsed through the teacher's optical brain, which contains your detailed information." Silverson said.

"As you can see," Bai Congxi said, "Even if you hate humans, Quincy Nofiler still has people who are interested, and I happen to be one of them."

"You haven't officially answered my question, Father?"

"Major General, after Xiao Yi finishes changing his body, you will get the answer you want."

"What makes you think I'd be happy to wait until then?"

"Just because I am the only person in this world who can complete a consciousness transplant operation."

Silvison raised the corners of his mouth, playing with taste: "I heard that you have something to do with me?"

Bai Congxi said, "I also have a question to ask you."

Silvison didn't speak, but gave the other party a questioning look.Bai Congxi rested his palms on the surface of the training cabin, his soft gaze slowly glanced over the young man's refined and beautiful naked body, he spoke slowly, his voice was as gentle as ever.

"Before seeing your information, I think there are three positions for you."

"The prince of the Losavandra family, the major general of the blood clan of the alliance, and the most loyal student of Quincy Nofiler."

"Now I would like to ask you a very formal question. If one day you had to choose one of these three identities and pay the price for this choice, what would you choose?"

Putting away the lightsaber, Silvison took a few steps forward and stood side by side with Bai Congxi, the light green fluorescence of the culture fluid was projected on the bottom of his eyes, condensing into a bright spot that shook slightly, "You still overlooked an identity. "

"Oh?" Bai Congxi tilted his head slightly, looked at his profile with interest, and asked, "What is it?"

Silvison smiled, "Your son's man."

Bai Congxi opened his eyes wide and looked at him with a little surprise, "So?"

"So the other three identities have one more premise."

"uh-huh?"

"Look who's in Bye's way."
