Chapter 42 Artificial Embryos

There wasn't much food to choose from in the dungeon, and Klett got some jerky rabbit meat from somewhere.

The meat was astringent and his teeth were clogged. Shen Siwei chewed with a frown as if he was facing an enemy, thinking that his teeth must not have been modified.

Not long after, the kettle on the induction cooker whistled, and steam rushed upwards.

Kleite took out the enamel cup, took a cup of boiling water for Shen Siwei, sat back on the sofa, and asked, "Can you drink it directly?"

Shen Siwei swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty, and said: "I can't."

"So you're just outwardly invulnerable," Kreiter concluded.

Shen Siwei took another bite of the rabbit meat, but didn't answer.

"When you're not doing strenuous activities, you don't need to wear an oxygen mask." Kreiter continued thoughtfully, "Then don't you have to wear a mask for all strenuous activities?"

Shen Siwei frowned: "Why do you have so many questions?"

"Know your body."

"There's nothing to know."

——After discovering that magnetic particles can be transferred, even Shen Siwei himself didn't know much about it.

After quietly eating the jerky rabbit meat on his hand, Kreit clapped his palms and asked again, "Are you going to rest tonight?"

The dungeon is lively at night, and during the day, there may not be a single person in sight for half a day.

Shen Siwei took a sip of the cold boiled water, put down the enamel cup and said, "Let's find someone first."

The underground city is not a scenic spot. Amor and Li came here only to settle down.

Kleite led Shen Siwei to a deeper underground level, and walked into the end of an alley in a detour.

"Old ghost, it's me." Kreit knocked on the closed shutter door and said to the camera diagonally above.

After a while, an old and sharp voice came from the camera: "Who is the person next to you?"

"My friend, Ivan." Having said that, Clayt said again, "Also a friend of Malcolm."

The shutter door slowly opened halfway, and Lieutenant Shen followed Kleiter and bent down to enter behind the door.

Both sides of the narrow passage are full of discarded electronic components, and Kreiter explained as he walked: "The old ghost is Malken's master."

Shen Siwei searched in memory, said: "I have never heard of this name."

"Normal." Kreit said, "She used to be called Robot."

It turned out to be the case.

Shen Siwei, the name of the manipulator, has heard of it. She was the first person to develop a mechanical prosthesis. She was originally a promising officer, but she became more and more crazy. She used living soldiers as experiments. He was exiled from the tree of life forever.

Whether it is the Duke or the old ghost, they are all characters that Shen Siwei knew before he was frozen.

Originally, these characters were quite far away to him, but now that he came to the desert dungeon, it was like re-opening the history book.

"She is very vigilant and has a strange temper. You should not talk to her later."

"it is good."

There is a dark room at the end of the passage. The entire wall of the room is covered with surveillance images, monitoring all the entrances and passages of the dungeon.

An old woman with gray hair and a plaid headscarf was sitting in a wheelchair with a pipe in her hand, looked at Kreiter blankly and said, "Give me the lighter."

Kleite glanced at the messy tabletop, picked up the nearest red lighter, and heard the old ghost say again: "Not this one, this one is out of gas, give me the blue one."

The old ghost's eyes were always looking at the front blankly, but she could accurately see Kleite's movements.

After lighting the pipe, she exhaled a puff of thick smoke, and asked with blank eyes, "What do you want from me?"

"Check the monitoring." Kreit said, "Look for two people."

"Check it out yourself." The old ghost raised his chin.

Kreit walked to the monitoring screen covering the wall, and just pressed the button on the console, the old ghost said, "That's an intercepted screen, go forward and back to the upper left."

Until then, Shen Siwei finally confirmed that the old ghost was not looking at things with her eyes.

Because Keleter's back was facing the two of them, Shen Siwei looked straight there, unable to see what Keleter was doing clearly, and the old ghost's eyes didn't move, but he knew which one Keleter was pressing. button.

The monitoring screen began to reverse rapidly, and the old ghost smoked a pipe, and said leisurely: "Malken said that you value sex over friends and refuse to help him. Is this the person you fancy?"

Kleite propped his hands on the operating table, raised his chin to look at the monitoring screen, and said casually: "Yes."

what are you doing...

Lieutenant Shen Si stared at Kleiter's back, thinking, do you want to admit it so happily?

The old ghost giggled twice, and then said, "Come closer and let me see."

Since her eyes were not directed, it could only be judged by the content that she was speaking to Shen Siwei.

Thinking about asking someone to do something, and it is not easy to refuse other people's request, Shen Siwei took a small step forward.

"Here." The old ghost raised his chin, only to see a camera on the table suddenly move left and right.

Lieutenant Shen Si couldn't help but feel a little strange, when Kleite turned around and said, "Her eyes are cameras."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head away and added: "All the cameras in the dungeon are her eyes."

Shen Siwei didn't think about this possibility, after all, mechanical prosthetic eyes can realize this kind of connection.

But the old ghost's eyes are not machines, but her own flesh and blood. How advanced biotechnology must this be?

He suppressed the surprise in his heart, bent slightly and moved forward, only to hear the old ghost say again: "Why are you wearing a mask?"

Shen Siwei naturally wouldn't answer, but Kleite seemed to have a good understanding, and took the initiative to answer: "I'll introduce you later, okay? Come and help me find someone."

The wheelchair moved slowly, from behind the table to Crait's side.

Shen Siwei was wondering how the wheelchair could move by itself, when he saw several data cables connected between the back of the old ghost's head and the wheelchair.

The answer is self-evident, the old ghost can control the wheelchair and all the cameras connected to her with his mind.

——Worthy of being the former chief scientist of the military.

This thought suddenly popped up in Shen Siwei's mind.

Maybe Dr. Chen is not as good as her?

"Isn't this going to come out?" The old ghost's voice interrupted Wei Shen's thoughts, "I left a week ago."

The pictures on the wall all jumped to the surveillance video of Amor and Li. In the file, the handsome young man put a fake beard on himself and covered half of his face with a cloak.

But his companion Li is much more generous, with no cover on his face, revealing three-dimensional facial features.

"Who are these two?" the old ghost asked.

"A friend of a friend." Kreiter didn't elaborate.

Zooming in on the surveillance video on the day they left, the figures of the two of them occupy the entire surveillance wall.

Li and Amor bought enough batteries in the dungeon, and then went to an exit to load the batteries into the aircraft.

"How long does it take to get to the ruins from here?" Amor asked.

The voice is gentle and elegant, steady but also implies anticipation.

Shen Siwei found that Amor was indeed different from him in the early diary, with a soft smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of light when he looked at Li.

"Up to two days." Li said with a smile, "Are you looking forward to it?"

"Yeah." Amor nodded, "The aurora is beautiful, and I want to watch the sea with you."

Li pinched Amor's cheek: "I won't let you down."

The happiness of the two seemed to be conveyed through the screen, Shen Siwei looked a little dazed, but heard the old ghost "tsk tsk" and said: "Young man."

Kleite pressed the pause button and said to Captain Shen Si: "They are going to the southern ruins."

Shen Siwei looked away from the dazzling smile on the screen, and asked, "Why do you want to go to the ruins to see the sea?"

Both the ice field and the ruins are adjacent to the deep sea. If you want to see the sea, you can also go to the ice field.

"Vision." Kreit said, "There is a 100-story building on the coast, where you can see far away."

"Young people just love to toss around." The old ghost mocked, "Just don't die on the way."

The reason why the aberration monsters appeared was precisely because of the nuclear leak in the southern ruins.It can be said that the southern ruins are the lair of distortion monsters.

For a better view, the two risked their lives to go to the ruins to see the sea. Is it worth it to ask Shen Siwei?

Maybe... really worth it.

Leaving the old ghost's place, the two returned by the same route.

"Shall we go to the southern ruins next?" Kreit asked.

Shen Siwei didn't answer the call immediately, his thoughts were still on the surveillance video.

His mother is a single mother. He never watched romance dramas, and there was no one around him who was in love. It wasn't until he saw the way Amor and Li got along that he realized that it seemed good to have someone by his side.

It's so good that he yearns for it inexplicably.

"Ivan?" Kleit called again.

Shen Siwei came back to his senses and asked: "Do you want to accompany me?"

After all, it was Lieutenant Shen Si's business to find Amor, and Kleite had no obligation to accompany him on the adventure.

"Otherwise?" Kleite asked back as a matter of course, "If I don't accompany you, who will accompany you?"

Feeling warm in his heart, Shen Siwei pursed his lips and said, "Well, good."

The two continued to walk up, and after a while, they returned to the front of Craite's house.

But seeing the scene in the aisle, the two frowned in unison and slowed down their pace.

I saw that Sasha's mouth was covered with a white cloth, and the old prince wrapped her shoulders with one hand, and put a dagger against her neck with the other, as if he had been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw Clette, he couldn't wait to shout: " Give me the money, or I'll kill her!"

Sasha struggled hard, but she was a child after all, and couldn't break free from the old prince's imprisonment.

"Be honest!" The old prince exerted force with his hands, and a bloodstain immediately appeared on Sasha's neck.

Sasha anxiously called Klett's name, but because her mouth was blocked, she could only make a sound of "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu".

"Give me the money!" The old prince repeated that word repeatedly, "I want to change my prosthetic eye, I want to change my prosthetic hand, you owe me this!"

"It's been so many years," Kreit said with a sullen face, suppressing anger in his tone, "Can't you calm down?"

"Pay back what you owe me!" The old prince's hand increased, and Sasha was so anxious that she burst into tears.

Although the old duke couldn't shoot accurately, it was easy to kill the child in his hand.

Shen Siwei looked at Kleiter calmly, and found that he clenched his fists, as if he could make a move at any time, but he tried his best to restrain himself.

Being able to repel the desert wolves with Lieutenant Shen Si, and being able to take such a heavy leg without any serious problems, Lieutenant Shen believed that Clayte had the ability to deal with the old Duke, so the reason for his hesitation was self-evident.

He didn't want to hurt the old Duke.

There is no way out of this stalemate all the time, Shen Siwei sighed helplessly, pressed the mask on his face with one hand, raised the other hand to point forward, and then his heart moved——

In the next instant, the dagger flew from the old Duke's hand to Shen Siwei's.

Except for Wei Shen, the three people present were all stunned.

Sasha was the first to react, and suddenly pushed the old prince away, and ran away without a trace.

With no weapons or hostages at once, the old prince was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, he said "wait for me!", and then left in front of Kreiter's house.

The small episode didn't affect the two of them. Kreit opened the door and asked curiously, "How did you do it?"

"I don't know the details." Shen Siwei shrugged and began to pack his backpack, "Anyway, I can."

"Have you evolved a supernatural ability? Then you are stronger than me." Kleite touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "How strong will our baby be in the future?"

Shen Siwei's movements stopped abruptly: "Who wants to have a baby with you? Artificial embryos break the law, okay!"

Clayton nodded, pondering: "Indeed."

City Z, West District, the basement of the barber shop.

"Can you be careful?" Malken carefully sewed up the skin on Ledger's wrist, "I don't have so many false identities for you to change?"

Lai Zhe smiled heartlessly: "I feel at ease with you here."

Malcolm still wanted to complain, but at this moment his communicator vibrated suddenly.

He glanced at it casually, and didn't take it seriously at first, but when he saw the content clearly, he immediately put down the stapler.

"Kreiter is willing to help." Malken looked at Ledger and blinked, as if he couldn't believe it. "He promised to go to the ruins to find that thing."

"Really?" Leger was also a little surprised, "A few days ago you went to him personally, didn't he even want to help?"

"Yeah." Malken said in a daze, "but he has an additional condition."

"What?" Leger asked.

"He said that when we succeed," Malcolm frowned and approached the communicator projection, "we will promote the legalization of artificial embryos."

"..."

Lai Zhe was puzzled: "You big brother is a bit difficult to understand."
