The woman caught by Sandalphin still had her name tag pinned to her body, so it was not difficult for Sandalphin to know her identity.This is an experimenter from the Eden Research Department.It was a position that made it impossible to see any problems at all, and she didn't look like a dangerous person—maybe it was because of this that she showed her flaws.Sandalph didn't know how long it would take for her to wake up, and now he dragged this woman to hide in a place similar to a warehouse, it was really difficult.

Theoretically, he should directly notify Lucifer and Lucio of this person, and most of them will have a safe solution.To them, these small abnormalities are probably just fluff balls accidentally picked up on their clothes, and they can just dust them off.But for Sandalphin, he faintly felt something was wrong with all of this. Although all abnormalities were under control during this period, it was too much.Not only the anomalies encountered on his own side, but also what Lucifer told him about the rebellion.These little inconsistencies aren't exactly hindrances, but they're disgusting enough that it's hard for Sandalphin not to wonder if it's all connected.

He tried looking in the man's pockets, but unfortunately, as the researchers at work were all in uniform, he found nothing.The control buttons she was holding also looked like they had just been picked up nearby.Sandalphin went to find some water nearby to wake her up: "Hey."

"Cough, cough, cough——" Although there was not much water, her breathing was obstructed, and the woman who had just been knocked out woke up quickly.When she recognized Sandalphin in her chaotic eyes, she showed a flustered look. Before Sandalphin spoke, she panicked and tried to support her momentum: "It is not ethical for a strengthened person to act without authorization. , you let me go, or I will call the police...!"

A very human response.But for Sandalphin, there is no threat at all.He asked: "Why are you watching us? After being spotted and trying to attack me?"

"Strong, strengthened people appear here, can't I worry?"

"Eden is Canaan's investment company. Isn't it strange that the enhanced people appear here? You have something to hide."

The other party seemed to realize immediately that there was no result to continue the conversation with Sandalphin, so she bit her lip as if she was going to die.San Defen thought for a while and asked, "Did someone instruct you?"

The other party stared at the floor without saying a word.

"Tell me quickly, or I won't guarantee your safety." Sandalphin knew that he didn't have any interrogation skills, so he planned to bluff before giving up, and instead informed Lucifer and the others.But unexpectedly, his almost useless bravado seemed to have an effect—the woman visibly trembled, showing a slightly terrified expression as if recalling something.

Sandalph was taken aback.

This seems to be a warehouse for storing experimental supplies, and there are quite a few things that can be used as weapons.He tried to reach out to those shelves while observing the other's reaction.When his hand reached for a box of finger cots, the woman shouted anxiously: "I don't know...! I don't know! That man didn't tell me who he is! I haven't even seen his face! "

"How did you contact that person?" Sandalphin took down the box of medical finger cots.He didn't know why the man was afraid of such a thing, but as long as it worked it was fine.The other party shrank into the corner of the wall tremblingly: "He, he gave me a... mobile phone..."

Sandalph was silent for a moment, then pulled out a mobile phone from his trouser pocket: "Like this?"

Of course what he took out was the cell phone that Beryl handed him.After Lucifer came, they tried to call back the call to determine Belial's location, but they were unsuccessful.The other party seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no reply.Lucifer asked him to keep the phone for observation.Sandalphin also felt that this could barely be regarded as a clue.Now the woman glanced at the phone and shook her head timidly: "No, it's not the same..."

"Do you remember the voice of the person who ordered you? Or the tone of voice, or any other information?"

Although Sandalph felt that it might be the eyeliner arranged by Beryl, he didn't dare to confirm it completely.In his cognition, that man seems to be more tactful and careful.Of course, it is also possible that the woman in front of me is just some kind of abandoned child, even if it is exposed, it doesn't matter.Either guess requires proof.Under Sun Defen's questioning, she shrank more and more: "I really don't know anything, he tied, bound, tied me... and blindfolded my, my eyes..."

"So, when he handed you the phone, he must have been close to you. What happened then?"

what happened?

After a moment of daze, the woman who was in extreme fear by herself suddenly began to shake her head crazily.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no—" Her tone suddenly became faster, her eyes widened: "I'm going to die, I'm going to die!! I'm going to die!"

"Hey...!" This is no longer a mental state for dialogue.Sandalphin was still at a loss, and now he had to face another trouble.He gave up asking, and wanted to take the woman in front of him outside again.But the moment she touched her, she let out a shrill scream like a siren, and Sandalphin's ears were buzzing and hurriedly tried to hold her down: "Stop shouting! No one wants you to die, I just want to ask you what's going on, calm down!"

But the other party will not stop by himself.Sandalphin even considered whether to knock her out again, but he grabbed her shoulder and felt that she was so stiff that she was about to cramp.When he was thinking about how to deal with it, he heard a voice from outside the door: "What's going on?!"

Lucio slammed the door open: "What happened?"

Thank goodness he came just in time.For the first time, Sandalphin felt grateful to see him.Lucifer didn't follow him, probably because the physical examination was not over yet.He and Lucio met eyes, then Lucio looked around and analyzed the situation, and immediately walked towards them: "Ah, ah, little saint, we've only been away for less than 10 minutes..."

"This is also an unexpected situation for me." Sandalphin stepped aside and let Lucio come over to check.Lucio squatted down to look at the screaming female researcher for a while, and suddenly reached out to pinch her neck—she stopped screaming within a few seconds, but she also fell limply on the ground and lost consciousness.

"Let her pass out temporarily. So what happened?"

After a simple exchange, Lucio showed a thoughtful expression.Sandalphin was a little surprised that he didn't seem to respond to the presence of spies in his company, and Lucio's thinking didn't last long, and soon he said to Sandalphin: "I probably understand the situation, but unfortunately this Although the name tag is my subordinate, I'm not familiar with her. So I can't give you any reference. Generally speaking, it's definitely an abnormality for her to be called like just now..."

"It's the same as saying nothing. Is there a way to know who is behind her?"

"Hmm... I advise you not to get your hopes up. I'll send her to someone who handles this, ah, don't worry too much. This kind of... leaker? Violator? Or a spy? Eden is someone who handles it Yes. But people who can be found out so easily usually can’t get any useful information.” Lucio carried the fainted researcher to the bench outside in a very gentlemanly manner, Sandalphine followed, and then noticed that There was no one around.Lucio noticed his looking around and explained: "Ever since I heard the whistle-like scream, I guessed that you caused trouble, so I asked everyone else to avoid it."

"Uh, that means Master Lucifer..."

"I heard it. That's why I ran out first to take a look for him."

Sandalphin rarely apologized honestly.Lucio smiled: "No, it doesn't seem to be your fault now. And it's only natural for you to be curious. Xiaosheng, you are also analyzing the recent situation, right? Do you want to talk about it?"

After being silent for a while, Sandalphin acquiesced to his invitation: "...it's weird from beginning to end."

He let out a long sigh.

"Since I received that pair of earphones. I have probably been designed by Belial and the others. But why did he send me to you? And why did he launch a rebellion against Canaan but not seriously attack? This paragraph Where did time disappear to? What is his real purpose? There is another one today, did he put this kind of crappy eyeliner? In the final analysis..."

Sandalphin frowned and shook his head: "I have no idea what that guy wants to do. It's very uncomfortable."

"It's half of what I was thinking about. Especially the matter of you coming, Xiaosheng. He should know that if you send me, Xiaosheng, I will notify Lucifer—oh, don't stare at me, The result is not bad, right? But he still did it, which is obviously not good for him. Xiao Sheng, what was your purpose for coming to me? It shouldn’t be very friendly, right?”

"..." Sandalphine was speechless and could only nod his head, and then added in a low voice: "What Beryl told me is that he will provide a list of human beings who want to kill Lord Lucifer, and then the first One is you."

"A lie that can be exposed in a second."

Lucio didn't look surprised.

"If it's like what you said, if he is a smart person, it can almost be deduced in reverse. Beryl just wants you, me, and Lucifer to have contact, and expects us to be vigilant. What does this mean to him? Good? I can't think of it. So maybe he just missed, or he saw the wrong person or something."

His last words were probably a consolation, but they didn't help anyway: "The most important thing is that you and Lucifer can face everything together now."

Hearing what he said, Sandalphin glanced in the direction of the laboratory.Lucio also looked back at his watch immediately: "It's almost there? Sure enough, let's go in and have a look?"

"Then, this person..."

While Sandalph was asking, he saw Lucio took out his mobile phone and pressed a few times, and soon a few people in suits and leather shoes came running from the stairs.Lucio smiled and nodded to them: "Please." Then under the watchful eyes of the two of them, the researcher who fainted on the bench was taken away.Sandalphin and Lucio walked back together.Sandalphin still couldn't help thinking about Belial's purpose, but the interruption of this thinking was soon interrupted by the scene he saw in front of him - Lucifer was floating in the petri dish, with some pipes connected to his body.Sandalph himself had drifted like this before, so he knew what a wonderful feeling it was. Lucifer saw them through the glass, then smiled and waved to them.Sandalphin couldn't help but want to get closer, and considered that it was stopped during the inspection, but Lucio said: "It doesn't matter, as long as you don't want to smash the instrument, Xiaosheng, you can touch it whatever you want."

"I wouldn't do that kind of thing?" Sandalph couldn't help but choked, but he walked to the front of the petri dish honestly.It was the first time he saw Lucifer soaking in the petri dish, and he couldn't help but put his hand on the outer wall of the petri dish like he did back then.Lucifer obviously understood what he meant, that's how he expressed his presence during the years when they couldn't communicate directly - he lowered his body slightly, and raised his hand to be separated from Sandalphin's through the glass put it together.

Sandalphin was relieved.Indeed, what is there to be afraid of?He will protect this man no matter what happens.Lucio also came over. He looked at the scene with his arms folded and seemed to be in a rare trance. After a long silence, he said softly: "I never thought that one day this petri dish would reappear like this."

"What kind of inspection is this going on?" Sandalphin didn't let go of his hand but turned to ask Lucio.Lucio pointed to a petri dish that was also filled with liquid but was empty at the back: "We are testing whether the tissue can remain active after leaving the body, that is, preparation for division. If this state is maintained for a long time, culture in that empty Something like an embryo will gradually appear in the dish."

After hearing what he said, Lucifer gave a little reaction.He pointed to the empty petri dish next to him, and then asked with his mouth: "Is this the place where Lucifer was born?"

Lucio was slightly taken aback.Sandalph was also a little surprised: "Why did you think of this?"

"The instruments here are specially adjusted." Lucifer pointed to the instrument on his finger that was used to infuse knowledge, but this time he didn't use it, it was folded on the top of the petri dish.Lucifer pointed out that Sandalphin also discovered the problem afterwards, the instrument seemed to be specially adjusted for someone's head, although it was not impossible for Lucifer to fit it in, but it was definitely a bit small.Besides, the other instruments also appeared to be slightly out of size on Lucifer's body.Lucio nodded: "As you thought, this was used by Lucifer. But in fact, it was also used by you... This petri dish and the empty petri dish next to it are the final formation of him and you. "

"Master Lucifer is also taking shape here?"

"Well, because before Canaan was established, there was only equipment here. Lucifer wanted to create his perfect half body here. For this reason, he worked here for a long time... The final result is Lucifer. But he It was not completed to the end. Canaan’s equipment was already formed when Lucifer was still in a non-human form, and he was transferred away. After that, this place has always been the experimental field directly under me. Don’t worry, I often maintain."

While speaking, Lucio took a tablet and called up the data, and handed it to Sandalphin.Sandalphin looked down, and saw a picture of a curled up little embryo appearing on the screen.This is obviously not a naturally formed "embryo". His heart and brain are already the size of an adult, but his body is still in a fragile and difficult to shape state.Lucifer also came over to watch together, Sandalph turned the tablet in his direction, he also looked a little curious.

"My friend already adopted the method of 'assembly' when making Belial." He expressed silently with his mouth: "But I seem to be closer to being cultivated. I don't have this memory myself. It's almost like a Like a real embryo."

"Whether you can produce self-awareness was an important observation goal for him at the time. He tried various methods to attract your attention, even if he didn't know if you could perceive it. Haha, at that time he could not sleep for up to 5 days, Just so you don't miss the changes you might have."

Both of them didn't know what Lucio said, so they couldn't feel the same mood as him.But Lucio didn't stay stuck in the memory for a long time, he quickly added: "But the result is good, so now we still use his method. Although you can't see it, the empty petri dish has been filled Put in Lucifer's cells, and the environment has been adjusted to the same state as amniotic fluid. If the acceleration goes well, you will be able to see a body piece as big as a walnut in two to three days. Then wait until the copied body grows enough to After loading the core, replace the original part of Lucifer's heart with a new core to try it out—this is the content of the experiment."

Lucifer nodded.Then there was a brief silence in the laboratory, and the experiment was quickly over.The petri dish that Lucifer was in began to seal and drain.Lucifer stood inside wet, while Sandalph went to the dressing room to the side to help him get towels.When the petri dish was opened, he immediately wrapped Lucifer in a towel, and Lucifer followed his will and lowered his head to let San Defen rub his head. His voice came from under the towel: "Lu Xiou, you don't look energetic."

"Well... because I saw the nostalgic scene, I thought of the doubts I had a long time ago." Lucio lifted a corner of the towel covering his head: "Lucifer made you to obtain his ideal perfect self. This is something he made clear at the beginning. But the work he was satisfied with in the end is you... I am really confused. I actually had this question when I saw your photo for the first time. You are almost Me. And I was bored by him from the bottom of my heart. What a contradiction."

Up to now, no one will answer Lucio's doubts.Therefore Lucifer did not give any words of answer.It was Sandalphin who said, "No, you are different."

"From a biological point of view, I, Lucifer and Lucifer are almost the same existence that has reached the level of cloning. If Lucifer has slightly deviated due to adjustments, Lucifer and I are in the same position. The medical report is copy-pasted. I think it's the same."

Sandalph raised an eyebrow, and muttered as if he had heard a boring saying: "So what?" Then he grabbed Lucifer's arm and looked around, looking for something that could be given to Lucifer. Before leaving, he said to Lucio: "It's not about the appearance, should it be the consciousness or the soul...? In short, it's the inside that is different. Although I also miss you, I still don't feel that you Are the same."

Lucifer froze for a moment, then he suddenly stared at Sandalphin: "Sandelphin, did you just say that the inside is different?"

"Huh?" San Defen was held back by him, and after a pause for a second, he smiled at him and said, "Yes, Lord Lucifer is Lord Lucifer."

"Consciousness. It's consciousness." Lucifer's expression was very serious, then he turned to Lucio and said seriously: "Sandall reminded me. In the eyes of friends, you and I must be different, otherwise he wouldn't deliberately re- Create me. Before the rebellion, Lucifer was working on a project about dreams... about the brain. The key to his core is not the soul, it should be consciousness. You and I have two similar but really different personalities, resulting in different consciousnesses. If this information can be recorded in the core in some way, then it can be said that the core is the manifestation of new life.”

"...So that's it, is it something like a code or data!" Lucio seemed to have figured it out, but Sandalphin was still a little confused, and it was difficult for him to sort out the information and keep up with the two of them immediately.But in another sense, he was able to maintain common sense at this time, and grabbed Lucifer who was about to go to the test bench immediately: "Master Lucifer, I know you are very happy to think of a breakthrough, but please Think about it a little bit."

He gestured to Lucy Phil: "You are still soaked through."
