Resurrection Empire

But on the other hand, there was no such change in the holographic images seen by Ren Zhong and other viewers.

After a long time, the scout captain suddenly smiled, "You are right. I was careless."

His tone was exceptionally gentle, without the slightest vigilance and alertness from before.

It was as if he regarded the other party as his blood brother who shared life and death.

The other scouts did the same, saying similar things in similar tones.

The leader of the self-rescue alliance nodded in satisfaction, and patted the scout captain on the shoulder, "Then, I'm very glad that you can join my big family, welcome."

The scout captain nodded heavily, "Thank you for taking in my lonely soul."

Leader: "You're welcome, this is what I should do. I will protect each of you."

Like every new member of the Self-Saving League before, the scout captain and his team members betrayed Hu Yang equally seamlessly.

Seeing this scene, the Ren Zhong outside was quite creepy.

Previously, Ren Zhong only thought that this person was particularly good at speech skills, but now it seems that things are not as simple as speech skills.

In the game field, most of the other contestants were terrified and desperately needed a sustenance, so there was a reasonable explanation for being moved by this person's few words.

However, as a rapidly rising loyal soldier belonging to Populus euphratica, the reconnaissance captain can only react in a fit of rage when faced with sowing dissension.

But in the end, Ren Zhong saw that it was indeed a diametrically opposite development, which did not conform to the logic of human nature.

Something unexpected must have happened.

This happened in the 10 minute range before the full hour.

Although Populus euphratica lost a few subordinates, he did not suffer any injuries.

Finally, an announcement sounded from above the game field, announcing that the time had reached 09:30 at night, the game was suspended, and it would resume at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning.

The communication time between players and contestants is also 5 minutes before the game continues tomorrow.

The first night is over.

Afterwards, countless metal pipes began to protrude from the walls and ground of the game field. Pink gas emerged from the metal pipes and quickly diffused to the entire field. All the contestants fell limply. It's like pressing the pause button while playing a game.

At this point, citizen players have two choices, either to rest overnight in the booth, or get up and leave, use the remaining half hour to return home, and come back tomorrow morning.

Ren Zhong thought for a while, and said to Zhou Ya beside him: "Please help me contact the Census Officer Academy. I hope to postpone the enrollment until the day after tomorrow. I have to stay here tomorrow, and I have to see the end of the competition."

Zhou Ya was taken aback for a moment, a smile appeared on her face, and then she quickly restrained herself, replaced by doubt and disappointment, "Well, okay, no problem."

Ren Zhong narrowed his eyes, "If I postpone my admission, there won't be any objections from the academy, right?"

Zhou Ya shook her head, "Of course not. They even..."

As she spoke, she shut up again.

Ren Zhong asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Ya: "Nothing."

In fact, there is no need to say this, Ren Zhong is clear in his heart.

What the top executives of the association want to see the most is that they are indulging in "enjoyment" in Xiayuanjing City, and they don't want to leave.

Playing personal games so much that even the academy is willing to go, that's not exactly what you want.

Afterwards, Ren Zhong lay down on his back, ready to use his improved wristwatch to enter the sleeping space, and began to search for information.

He was checking, when he felt his body being shaken, he opened his eyes, it was Zhou Ya.

Zhou Ya: "I've already told the academy. So are you going to stay here tonight?"

Ren nodded, "Yes."

Zhou Ya: "As your official assistant, I will be here with you."

Ren Zhong: "Okay, thank you."

"Ah?" Zhou Ya was slightly taken aback.

She thought that Ren Zhong would refuse her bedside servant, but she didn't expect him to agree.

She was a little bit helpless.

She stood up and was about to take off her clothes, but she saw that Ren Zhong had closed his eyes, and his breathing became even and long.

Yes, this person has fallen asleep and entered the deep sleep space.

Pure waste of expression.

Zhou Ya sat back on the sofa angrily, and adjusted the control button to sleep mode.

The sofa expanded by itself and turned into a comfortable big bed, and a soft quilt rose from the hole in the ground next to it.

Zhou Ya grabbed the cup and was about to cover it, but looked at Ren Zhong next to her, sat up straight again, covered Ren Zhong with the spread cup, returned to her position, and clicked the operation again to let the smart assistant Another bed was delivered.

At this time, Ren Zhong had returned to the contestant information database provided by the club, and clicked to select a person's information.

It was the leader of the Self-Saving Alliance.

Strange things happened.

This person has no name.

In the name column, there is a long string marked.

"Sample No. 620 of the 38th and [-]th Secondary Experiment of the Eighth Group of the Human Potential Research Project Group of the Central Laboratory of Mengdu Group".

Ren Zhong felt very puzzled.

Almost everyone on Origin Star has at least one name.

Even an orphan who has no father or mother since childhood will give himself a name as a label.

People with only product codes like number 38 are indeed rare.

There is only one possibility, this person grew up in the laboratory of the Mengdu Group since he was a child, and has never had contact with the outside world.

With strong curiosity, Ren Zhong clicked on this person's detailed profile again, and even more amazing things happened.

Number 38 was indeed a baby born in a laboratory.

But he does not have parents in an ethical sense, only parents in a biological concept.

His fertilized egg is a pairing of two carefully selected genes.

His biological parents are two warriors with psychic abilities.

Under normal circumstances, due to the fusion of too many Ruin beast genes, the breeding warriors have no reproductive ability.

But when the sample base is continuously enlarged, there will always be miracles.

It is this artificial miracle that the Human Potential Research Project team has created.

Number 38 is the miracle of miracles.

Not only did he survive, but he also successfully grew up to be eight years old. He was the only experimental subject who survived eight years old in the original batch of a thousand samples.

But it was also on his eighth birthday that a large-scale riot broke out inexplicably in his laboratory.

Many grassroots staff went crazy and released all the test subjects, and launched a desperate attack on their superiors, and even a large number of staff fled desperately with the test subjects.

During this riot, No. 38 disappeared without a trace.

The Mengdu Group used the power of the "net" to launch a global search, arresting and killing most of the fugitives.

Only this No. 38 has never been seen, and even the "net" failed to find him out.

Ten years passed in a blink of an eye, until a few days ago, this person suddenly appeared outside the satellite town of Xiayuanjing City, and was captured by the citizens who were out hunting.

Afterwards, the man was briefly sent back to the Maungdow Group laboratory and was forced to undergo a comprehensive examination.

He didn't show any special ability to fuse genes, and he was more ordinary than ordinary people.

In short, the technicians unanimously judged him to be a "waste".

After going around and around, No. 38 was sold to Shenxun Group by Mengdu Group as a scrap slave, and sent to this paradise of human nature to become a member of the contestants.

This is his whole life.

It looks seamless on the surface, but Ren Zhong intuitively feels something is wrong.

Ren Zhong suspected that he was probably arrested on his own initiative.

Chapter 378 Mystery and Mystery

Although Ren Zhong also knew that this idea was unreasonable, but his intuition told him that it was probably the truth.

There is no reason for a person who escaped the monitoring of the "net" at the age of eight and has lived until now, to be caught so easily ten years later, after the "net" has been killed.

In addition, Ren Zhong felt that since he could see this person's anomaly so intuitively, there was no reason why other Yuan Xing people were all fools, and he should feel it more or less.

But the strange thing is that No. 38 was so easily sold by the Mengdu Group as "waste", which is very unimaginable.

Combined with the abnormal situation in the game field today, Ren Zhong even believed that the riot in the Mengdu Group's laboratory was also related to No. 38.

Ren Zhong further speculates that No. 38 is likely to have mutated some kind of ability similar to mind control.

He can "infect" and control the object he wants to control when he is in close contact, like hypnosis.

But Ren Zhong still has doubts.

Others in the self-help alliance did not show any obvious state of mind control. They only seemed a little abnormal when they first came into contact with No. 38, but after they really integrated into the group, they still had quick thinking, clear logic, and no abnormalities in their speech and behavior. .

After the brief contact at the beginning, they obviously trusted every word of No. 38 from the bottom of their hearts, as if they had been together for decades.

In addition, the total number of people in the Self-Saving Alliance has exceeded 1000 at this time, and Ren Zhong can't imagine how powerful a person's mental power or hypnotism must be to be able to control so many people so stably at the same time.

This is also unreasonable.

It is this irrationality that is bothering Ren Zhong.

He called up the screen in the game field in the sleeping space again, observing the No. 38 who had been forcibly hypnotized.

The young man is not tall, and looks harmless to humans and animals. There is a number written on his shoulder, and there is a QR code pattern the size of a fingernail under the number.

Enlarge the QR code and scan it to read his volunteer information, showing that he is from the biochemical laboratory of Mengdu Group.

This should be the "waste label" that he re-labeled with non-washable paint after he was captured back to the laboratory a few days ago.

Ren Zhong was scanning the label at this time, and also saw the comments given to him by the staff of Mengdu Group. Most of them said that this person is ordinary, has no use value, and is not a threat. He can be packaged and sold as a commodity with other failed samples. , it can be regarded as playing some residual value.

"What is this person's ability, and what is his purpose?"

Ren Zhong thought about this question.

After a long time, he shook his head slightly in the sleeping space.

He couldn't get a definite answer.

During this period, Ren Zhong also carefully considered whether to give Hu Yang an order to get rid of No. 38 tomorrow at all costs.

The most practical way is to instruct her to pretend to accept the other party's negotiating demands, attract them, and then shoot her to death without contacting her face to face.

But just as the idea was conceived, it was quickly snuffed out by Ren Zhong.

Ren Zhong questioned himself and felt that he could not easily sentence someone to death with unwarranted "evil".

After all, so far No. 38 has not committed any crimes.It is only natural for him to snatch people from Hu Yang's subordinates.

Everyone is doing it.

If I ordered Hu Yang to assassinate the other party because of subconscious vigilance, it would be out of character, and it would be no different from the "net" who randomly sentenced people to death only by relying on data models.

With such thoughts in mind, Ren Zhong suppressed his killing intent, and fell into a deep sleep instead.

After waking up, Ren Zhong and Zhou Ya went to the bathroom inside the deck to wash up briefly, and after a simple breakfast, they lay down and waited for the game to start.

From time to time, Zhou Ya looked sideways at Ren Zhong, who was lying on the sofa and entered a state of meditation. She knew what he was thinking about, and was very curious, but it was difficult to ask.

After a long time, when the time came to [-]:[-], Ren Zhong finally put down his hands, straightened the back of the sofa, and sat up, with a strange light shining in his eyes.

Zhou Ya: "What's wrong?"

Ren Zhong: "This game will soon be over."

Zhou Ya: "Huh?"
