War Lord

Chapter 428: fall

What does the past mean?

For anyone, the past means the trajectory of the past, and the label is also affirmative. www.|dyzww.|网|m|It is the past that converges into the present and can continue into the future.

But if your past is just a bunch of data, a piece of genetic information, then what is the meaning of such a past. Just like Zero at this moment, he was confused when he knew that he was a clone created by the biological genes of the last era, and that there was more than one clone of himself.

A person can work hard, work hard, and persevere. It's because we know that there is only one life, every minute and every second of time is precious. But when you know that you are not the only one, but can be replaced, then what is the meaning of all your hard work and persistence.

Seeing the clone in the photo with the same appearance as herself, Zero's heart was filled with indescribable pain. He wanted to ruin it all, and then pretended that nothing happened. But he knew that it was just self-deception. For a moment, he even thought about staying in this base and never going out again until he died of old age.

But Beyonce hugged him, and the woman told Zero with her temperature that he was not responsible for these things alone. Beyonce's words touched Zero's heart more deeply. She was his beacon. Because of Beyonce's life, Zero also possessed something called the "past". Except for Beyoncé, those familiar faces appeared in front of Zero's eyes one by one.

Su, Feng, Belion, Ye Liu, Haiwei, Agatha, Leah... Maybe there are many clones, but he is the only one who has these memories.

He is Zero, and he cannot change his identity as a clone, but these people, these memories have become the affirmation of Zero. Because of their existence, zero is zero!

Suddenly, Zero was grateful for the arrival of the cataclysm. If it weren't for this baptism of the global disaster, I am afraid that Zero would only wake up as a clone and act according to the instructions. In that case, there would be no current zero.

"Thank you, Bess. I'm fine." Zero said softly, touching Beyonce's face with her hand, and at the same time, she decided in her heart that she would take Beyonce with her and leave safely anyway.

Beyoncé's eyes regained brilliance when she saw zero, and she was delighted to know that this man had cheered up again. She nodded happily, thinking of something, suddenly held Ling's face seriously, and kissed his lips again.

Entangled warmly.

For a long time, the lips are divided. Beyonce gasped gently: "Remember my taste, zero. As long as you remember, you will be zero, nothing else."

Zero smiled and said casually: "I'm nothing."

He was shocked to speak after speaking, and Beyonce was already laughing. After smiling for a moment, Beyonce clutched her belly and said, "Of course you are not a thing, you are my zero."

"Let's see what else Admiral Iger said." Zero squeezed Beyonce's hand and took her to walk towards the podium again.

Since the past cannot be changed, it is to create the future!

Zero said to herself, looking at the catkin that was tightly held in her hand, Zero decided that she would never let go anytime in the future!

Back in front of the podium again, Zero's hand stopped in midair for about a second before pressing the play button again. This action may be nothing to other people, but for Zero, it is a kind of absolute determination to face his own past. No matter how unthinkable his "past" is, Zero has to face it calmly.

The video continues to play.

Admiral Iger showed a regretful expression: "Everything went smoothly, but unfortunately, what we touched is the realm of God after all. On the 13th day of the formation of gene clones, all clones suddenly appeared gene collapse. Dr. Callahan, who is in charge of this project, can’t say why. It seems that there are many subtle data involved. Although in terms of computer simulation, the survival rate of clones should have reached 90%. But it is like a god’s mischief. So, we just bumped into the remaining 10%."

"What does it feel like to watch nearly a thousand clones become minced meat in the culture tank? Anyway, in the next week, every time I see a bacon burger, I feel like vomiting. I failed, very much. A disastrous failure. The death of thousands of clones means that tens of billions of funds, including nearly a hundred day and night efforts of all the base staff, have been scrapped." Admiral Iger shook his head and said: "Fortunately in misfortune, there is one The clone survived, and its life characteristics were very stable, as if it had swallowed the vitality of thousands of others of the same kind. This clone survived the genetic instability period with almost terrifying vitality. He successfully survived!"

Ling looked at Beyonce with a weird expression. He pointed to himself and said, "Will it be me?"

"Idiot, who else besides you?" Beyonce smiled: "Now you are completely relieved? All clones are dead, only you survive. In a sense, you are also the only one , Irreplaceable."

Zero nodded vigorously.

On the screen, Admiral Iger continued: "But after knowing about this, the old Harson **** insisted through the upper layers to send the surviving clone to their base. It is said that the clone possesses very similar weapons to the super biological weapon. The success rate of such transplantation will be very high. The **** project, I heard that thousands of outstanding fighters in the world have been lost, and now even our only finished product has to be taken away. There is really no more **** thing than this. !"

When talking about this, Admiral Iger expressed extreme anger, raising his fists and roaring more than a few times. But afterwards, his expression became frustrated again, and the admiral smiled bitterly: "But what's the use of saying this now. Okay, let's get back to business. After the clone was taken away, we no longer have the authority to know what happened to him. But Dr. Callahan still tried his best to fight for some rights. We took part of the blood from the clone to extract the stable gene. Dr. Callahan is not going to give up. He intends to use the clone's gene as the basis for isolation Processing and adding genes from other organisms in an attempt to cultivate another biological weapon that can be mass-produced. The above is very supportive of his plan and additional research funding. But if I knew what would happen in the future, I should have tried my best to prevent it. Dr. Callaghan continued his research."

"As I said earlier, the master of this gene, the life of the Fourth Age has the appearance of a human. It can be an infinitely evolved life, and God knows whether the appearance of a human has evolved by a certain monster. This is nowhere to be verified. , But I’m very responsible to tell you who are watching the video now, what Dr. Callaghan’s subsequent research has cultivated is not a mass-produced weapon, but a completely uncontrollable monster!"

As soon as the screen turned, Admiral Iger inserted another video. In the picture, it is as if the world under a certain microscope. In this world, there is only one kind of peculiar cell. Its shape is constantly changing, sometimes round and sometimes flat. Sometimes it becomes a rhombus, triangle, or rectangular parallelepiped shape. Numerous spikes will be produced on the surface of the cell, or it will turn into a liquid. In just a few seconds, the cell changes are almost endless, and they are not repeated.

After a while, the cell trembled violently, and then split into two. Two divides into four, four turns into eight, and eight becomes infinite. The cells divide almost infinitely, and finally the screen is densely packed. What is even more bizarre is that these divided cells are undergoing different changes, and there is no commonality between them, just like independent objects.

After the scene disappeared, the figure of Admiral Iger appeared on the screen again: "What you saw just now is the separation of genes extracted from the blood collected by Dr. Callaghan from the clones, and the fusion of genes from other organisms. The material obtained later. We call it Z material. This genetic material has only a thousand sets of memory dna, the total amount is only one percent of the clone, but it has excellent stability and can survive in almost any carrier. "

"Z-substance has two characteristics. One is based on thousands of memory dna, which can evolve in response to different environmental stimuli; the second is near-infinite division, at least discovered by our current measurable methods. , It can split at least one million times. This provides very reluctant vitality to the carrier of Z substance. As long as one cell remains, the carrier can regenerate indefinitely. In theory, this is a very powerful biological weapon. Imagine a biological weapon that can evolve in response to different environmental stimuli to adapt to the environment and is almost indestructible. If it can be mass-produced, then it is definitely the darling of the battlefield." On Iger Will sigh: "This is probably the main reason why the top decided to increase the funding of Dr. Callaghan's plan. They want an army that can be controlled and cannot be killed in any case. It is also because of this that the z-substance has changed from the original ten. Units, in less than a month, successfully cultivated nearly a thousand units. If they hadn’t cultivated them so vigorously, perhaps the following tragedy would not have occurred."

"Yes, tragedy!" Colonel Iger emphasized: "Z matter can't be compared with super biological weapons, nor can it match the life of the fourth era, even clones. But that is also the same as the above metamorphosis. The conclusion drawn by comparison, compared with ordinary life, it is the existence that firmly occupies the top of the biological chain. For other ordinary life, it is a disaster. Although we carefully avoid this disaster, it still happens after all Now, I can’t help but wonder if they are also observing us when we are observing them outside the cultivation tank. Otherwise, how they seized the opportunity and triggered this disaster.”

"That opportunity happened half a year later."

Admiral Iger smiled bitterly and said: "Originally, secret bases such as white blood cells are naturally declined to visit. But the problem is that when the Prime Minister wants to visit our research results, he naturally has no right to object as a subordinate. On that day, all the base personnel They all stopped the work at hand and devoted themselves to this very important visit. Among these personnel, Dr. Curd was included."

A photo was inserted on the screen, in the photo was a thin man. The body under the researcher's long coat was so thin that it would be blown away by a gust of wind, and what is important is that this person's appearance is somewhat similar to the researcher who attacked Zero.

"During the visit that day, Dr. Curd, who was in charge of biological weapons research, also visited Dr. Callaghan’s biochemical experiment area. In the process, one of the thousands of units of substance z, I don’t know how to quietly follow it. Leaked from the culture tank and lurked with Dr. Curd as a carrier. On the third day after the visit, Dr. Curd developed fever and vomiting. At that time, the doctors at the base only dealt with ordinary viral infections. , But it was just such an oversight that led to a week later, Dr. Curd, who had completely integrated with the Z matter, finally launched a massacre on the entire base!" Admiral Iger held his head with both hands: "Until Dr. After the splitting ability created hundreds or thousands of spawn monsters, we only knew that he was parasitized. And after calling out his medical records, we knew that Dr. Cord had already shown signs of being parasitized, but we were parasitized. Neglect the past. When thousands of monsters attacked the researchers throughout the base, the situation had reached an irreversible situation. Based on the danger judgment system set early in the morning, the main computer of the base activated the emergency defense mechanism. The computer automatically shut down everything. Emergency entrances and exits, and sending out help signals to the outside world, and we can only rely on the main control room to become the last refuge. Fortunately, when the base was built, it was considered that this would happen, so the main control method is Designed with the concept of a fortress building, regular supplies are also stored on weekdays. We were able to survive in the control room for a period of time, but the rescue was delayed. The base has become a playground for Dr. Curd and his spawns. We Gradually feel desperate."

"Perhaps in order to stimulate us, but also to capture us. Dr. Cod, who has been affected by Substance Z, showed a cruel and cunning side of his latent personality. He deliberately leaked some intelligence to let us know that the water cycle unit of the base can still be used. . And in the water cycle machine room, there is still a hidden channel. It was a working channel for repairing parts, which can reach the surface directly and is not under the control of the main computer. This is almost our only way of life now. After this information, the people in the control room were divided into two factions. I advocated staying in the control room and waiting for rescues who do not know when they would come. However, the other faction advocated taking risks and leaving this hell-like base. "Admiral Iger shook his head and said: "Those poor people, I tried to dissuade them. This is a simple trap. Even if there is such a channel, Cod will not let us leave. And these are called The best of humans, those with an average IQ of 160 or more, are as stupid as pigs at this time. Of course, I can’t blame them. Due to the pressure of survival, they are willing to take risks. Can distribute them the few remaining guns and ammunition~lightnovelpub.net~ and pray for them to leave safely."

"But the result is obvious. Half an hour after they left the control room, I heard gunshots from deep in the base. Some people even fleeing back desperately, but were torn to pieces by Cord's spawn in the middle. Since then, No one wants to take risks anymore. Dr. Callahan once said that there is a serious defect in the z-substance, which is the reason why it has not been applied to the carrier. But the detailed information is left in the biochemical zone, outside It’s so dangerous that we can’t reach the biochemical zone. Otherwise, maybe we can find the weakness of this beast.” Admiral Iger said to the camera with great pain: “Until today, I am sure that there will be no rescue. All My food and water have been exhausted, and in order to survive, my beloved colleagues have become beasts. I have to put an end to them in order to preserve their only humble dignity."

The camera moved away to the side, and it appeared in the picture like hell. Wearing uniforms and people biting each other on the ground, blood left mottled marks on the ground. It is hard to imagine that these beast-like people were once upper-class figures with a decent life. But now, they have become corpse-eating evil spirits.

Of course, they have become corpses now.

This is the last picture left by Admiral Iger to the two zeros.
