章節 99: Chapter 99: Go and Capture Kiana!
Rita held a rough floor plan of the underground structure of Shencheng Pharmaceuticals' industrial district. "A rabbit with three burrows?" Rita murmured, a mysterious smile on her lips. "No wonder they aren't worried about me finding anything. After all, the important details wouldn't be left out in the open for her to investigate."
Shencheng Pharmaceuticals had never introduced the complex underground structure of their company's industrial district. If there were no hidden motives, why hide it?
Feeling that she had discovered a significant secret, Rita synchronized the information with Schicksal and prepared to investigate.
Although it took extra time to avoid Shencheng Pharmaceuticals' surveillance, Rita successfully entered the hidden underground section following the markings on the map.
Despite being an S-rank Valkyrie for Schicksal, Rita couldn't help but be shocked by the scene underground.
Rows of transparent nutrient tanks filled the space, neatly arranged to store the bodies of humans and the undead. Rita furrowed her brows slightly and, upon closer inspection, noticed some glowing patterns on the backs of some undead – stigmata. Although incomplete, they were unmistakably stigmata.
Rita instinctively sensed that something was amiss, feeling like a puzzle was gradually unraveling. She continued her investigation.
In addition to the undead with incomplete stigmata, there were more human limbs cut open and replaced with mechanical structures. The bizarre combination of machinery and biology made Rita slightly uncomfortable.
The entire laboratory gave her an unsettling feeling. Rather than a laboratory, it felt more like an abstract human art museum, filled with absurdity and strangeness, silently showcasing the owner's modification technology to the visitors.
She might have touched the edge of the hidden secret.
Her vital signs monitoring device, carried with her, showed an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. Rita took a deep breath, calming the rising anger within. She took out the prepared hacking tools, ready to crack the laboratory's programs. Soon, she got the information she wanted.
Looking at the data displayed on the screen, her pupils involuntarily contracted, and she muttered in disbelief, "Madness, it must be madness."
A crazy plan that used the entire city's population as experimental material made Rita shiver. Moreover, the City of the Firmament was not some small city on the outskirts; it was a super metropolis with a population and technological level that were unmatched in the world!
Without lingering on this thought, Rita swiftly organized and collected the information, preparing to upload it to the EOS ship and then report to the Bishop.
This crazy plan... perhaps Bishop should increase the level of attention to the City of the Firmament.
[Crazy, that's what I think too.] The voice from the monitoring room interrupted Rita's actions. Holding her scythe, Rita vigilantly searched for the source of the sound.
[No need to look, I'm not here.]
Finally, Rita found the source of the voice. It was the built-in speaker on the electronic device, and from it emerged a man wearing a white Dove mask, a voice Rita had heard moments ago.
"Hearing this voice, it's you!"
[It seems Miss Rita still remembers me.] The electronic screen blinked a few times, revealing a man wearing a white Dove mask.
"Indeed it's you." Seeing the iconic face of the pigeon thing in front of her, Rita unconsciously tightened the grip on her scythe, revealing undisguised hostility in her tone.
Hardened, the fist was hardened. The moment she saw this face, Rita felt a surge of anger in her heart, the humiliation of defeat. As an S-rank Valkyrie, she never thought she would fail against this man.
"Why would World Serpent do this? Aren't you afraid of the consequences?"
"The snake doesn't care. Instead of that, you might want to worry about yourself." Chase's cold voice came, and at the same time, the communication was cut off. The cultivation tank containers in the entire laboratory were quietly activated, releasing undead and modified humanoid weapons.
Crack.
The glass of the cultivation tanks shattered suddenly, and a pale green liquid flowed all over the place. The Death Weaver, a biological weapon developed by Jackal, the chief scientist of World Serpent, confronted Schicksal's S-rank Valkyrie.
Rita stared at the modified biological weapons before her, feeling a threat. Rita furrowed her brows slightly. "I'm surrounded. Immortal Blades, regroup to my location."
Rita sent out the communication, but there was no response from Alvitr.
..........
In one of Jackal's secret laboratories.
"Alright, that's enough," Chase clapped his hands, looking much more relaxed. He had an expression of satisfaction.
Being cool is quite enjoyable, this line is also quite cool!
"Can I say it next time?" Chase approached, asking the woman with the dog head mask beside him.
"I don't care, do as you please." Jackal replied without looking back, her gaze fixed on the monitor showing Rita. She seemed to be unaware of Chase's strange expression at the moment.
"Do you think these things can beat Rita?" Chase stared at the modified undead in the monitor, with a skeptical expression.
"Of course not," Jackal sneered, "but this is just a part of the plan."
As she spoke, Jackal pressed a button. The atomized HSN gas was released directly into Rita's laboratory. Watching the pale yellow gas gradually fill the entire lab, Jackal looked at the monitor, where Rita had put on a gas mask. She sneered, then turned to Chase, her voice filled with unique pride.
"This is my latest invention, different from the HSN serum that requires injection. This one can invade the body the moment it comes into contact with the skin, neutralizing the Honkai energy in the opponent's body."
Jackal couldn't wait to explain her invention to Chase, her eyes filled with excitement.
"Oh, isn't this just putting the HSN serum into a nebulizer? I can do that too." Chase responded unexpectedly, lacking enthusiasm.
"..." Jackal was choked by Chase's words, and for a moment, she lost the enthusiasm to continue introducing her invention. Suddenly, she noticed another part of the monitor, and her excitement returned. Like a scientist discovering something novel, she looked at Chase, full of exploration.
"The Herrscher of Void!" Jackal exclaimed excitedly. "She's saving those Valkyries. White Dove, go handle it."
"Huh?" Chase looked over in confusion.
"It's best to capture her alive. I haven't studied the Herrscher yet." Jackal said to herself, completely ignoring Chase's peculiar expression.
