Zhou Lin - Chapter 204 Dangerous Relationship

Killing Ran Xiangtian is an easy task because his level is far different from He Huaibi.

He Huai didn’t need to show his superpower at all. He could kill Ran Xiangtian with just one blow. However, in order to avoid getting blood on his hands and clothes, He Huai still used a cold weapon he picked up when he did it. .

The knife fell from the hand, and the head fell to the ground.

Ran Xiangtian died a happy death. He neither suffered any additional pain nor became food for others after his death. Perhaps for him, it was a good thing and a relief to be able to have such an ending.

You should have a lot of questions to ask me, right? After He Huai finished dealing with Ran Xiangtian, he threw the weapon away and raised his voice.

After he finished speaking, about five seconds later, Yan Wushang’s figure appeared in his sight.

You should know what I want to ask. Yan Wushang walked out of the forest and said calmly, Just tell me what you can tell me, or what you want to tell me… just tell me.

Hearing this, He Huai pushed up the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, thought for a few seconds, and then responded with a smile: Okay, let me introduce myself first… He paused for half a second, and then said, My surname is He Huai. , his identity is not a civil servant as mentioned before, but a staff officer under Juizun, known as – ‘Designer’.

Oh, nice to meet you. Yan Wushang continued in a tone without sincerity.

Haha… You’re welcome. He Huai said, Although you are not familiar with me, I have been paying attention to you for a long time. As the third ‘qualified person’ of the ‘Tianxuan Island’, I have great expectations for you. looking forward.

Well… before you explain this so-called ‘Chosen Island’, can you tell me how the two previous ‘qualifiers’ are doing now? Yan Wushang asked.

Ha… He Huai chuckled, Don’t worry, it’s very good. Just listen to me.

Yan Wushang shrugged and motioned for the other party to continue with an expression that seemed to say, Then just say it.

He Huai also quickly went on to say: It was about fifteen years ago… At that time, I was still working in the federal government, and I could be considered a slightly famous scientist. However, because the federal government has changed everything from the inside to the outside and from top to bottom. There is corruption in all aspects… It is very difficult to do something practical within that kind of system.

A large amount of resources have been invested in a group of people who only know how to flatter people and rank based on seniority. They are either doing pie-in-the-sky projects that are unlikely to make any progress in decades to defraud funds, or they are providing some special satisfaction to the powerful. Boring projects for perverted pleasure needs.

“A practical person like me can only hold a meager amount of money, put in several times the effort, and do research with great difficulty…

And when I finally achieved some results, those so-called leaders who not only did not help me at all but also created a lot of resistance would swarm in like locusts and shamelessly divide my honors and achievements. .

At that time, I was…very angry, but unable to change anything. Just when I was disheartened and planning to join in the trouble with those people, I met the most important person in my life – Lord Juezun.

When he said this, he showed an extremely pious expression, and it seemed that he truly worshiped his master.

Then he asked you to help him design and build the place we are staying in now? Yan Wushang responded promptly, Are you sure this is not the same thing as the ‘abnormal hedonistic need’ you just mentioned?

Watch your words! Yan Wushang. He Huai suddenly said sternly, I will not allow others to slander Lord Juizun like this. He paused for a second and explained, He was not the one who created this ‘Celestial Island’ It was my initiative. All Mr. Huizun did was trust me unconditionally and gave me almost unlimited resources at his disposal to advance this project.

So you think this is a story about ‘a capable minister meets a wise master’? Yan Wushang said.

Don’t you think so? He Huai asked.

Go on, Yan Wushang responded.

Although Yan Wushang’s true inner view of the matter was that a mad scientist met a super genius who tried to take advantage of him, he did not say it out loud because he was afraid that he would not get enough information to expose He Huai. Infuriated.

You may not be able to fully understand it just by talking about it, so I’ll just let you take a look directly. He Huai then said in a showy tone and raised his finger to the sky.

At this moment, the blue sky, white clouds and scorching sun above the jungle suddenly disappeared, and what appeared next was a huge metal dome.

‘Tianxuan Island’ is divided into three parts… He Huai continued, The first part is the energy base located above the sea. In addition to supplying energy for the facilities on the entire island, the base also It is necessary to shield and filter various signals from the earth’s surface and satellite orbits, and the ‘clouds’ produced by its operation can just hide the island.

The second part is the genetic research laboratory located below the sea level. It is also the place where I spend most of my time. There, it only took me three years to complete what I could not do within the federal system for thirty years. I have created a large number of endangered animals and even extinct species with a survival period of more than five years, and I have also successfully developed some ‘interesting new varieties’…

Hearing this, Yan Wushang couldn’t help but interrupt: I’m quite familiar with your research results, so there’s no need to introduce them in detail.

Haha… He Huai smiled knowingly and continued, And the third part is this virtual jungle.

From the outside, this part looks like a spherical facility located deep under the sea, with a diameter of only a dozen kilometers; but the inside… I designed it into a space similar to the ‘Penrose Stairs’. Therefore, theoretically, here It’s as huge as ‘an entire planet’, and no one with flying ability, speed ability, or even teleportation ability… can escape.

Yan Wushang laughed dryly: Humph…I see. He seemed to suddenly think of something, So, the daily ‘airdrop’, to put it bluntly, means that you connect from the ‘second part’ of the island to the ‘third part’ They dropped supplies directly into the passage, and then played a sound effect for us as a plane passed by, right?

He Huai continued: Yes, speaking of… I downloaded the sound effects from a random search on the Internet.

Hmm… Yan Wushang pondered for a moment, then continued, Actually, in the first few days I came here, I already discovered that the sounds of planes flying over are exactly the same every day. In addition, the sound coming from the sky is I roughly guessed that this was some kind of special space, but I didn’t expect that it was connected in a loop. If I had known about it earlier… I would not have taken the trouble to take a few people on a journey for a month. ”

Judging from the results, it’s pretty good. He Huai continued, It was in that month that you improved your ability to the peak of the ferocious level, wasn’t it?

Then the question comes… Yan Wushang asked, You said that I am a ‘qualified person’, the basis should be that my ability has reached a certain level, right? Yan Wushang had all the previous conversations between Ran Xiangtian and He Huai Hearing this, He Huai also knew this well, But, compared with that time, I haven’t improved much, right? Why did you wait until now to show up? If you want to make me more If we break through further, we shouldn’t ‘reset’ the island, but should drop stronger monsters to test me, right?

Heh… He Huai said with a smile, You might as well try to think about this problem from another angle. I think you should be able to think of the answer.

After being reminded like this, Yan Wushang thought for a moment and suddenly realized: Oh… is it because of time?

That’s right. He Huai nodded, The screening is not just for you. All the people you meet here have equal opportunities with you; anyone can accumulate enough survival time on this island. One year is considered a ‘pass’. But if you are killed by a newcomer on the 364th day, it is considered a failure.

Before you, there were cases where a ferocious ‘veteran’ who had lived for more than half a year was killed by a newcomer… Naturally, I would not recommend someone like that to Lord Juezun.

Then I have to ask again… Yan Wushang brought up the original question again. This is also something he is more concerned about now and is directly related to his future fate. What happened to the two qualified candidates before me? …”

The first qualified person on Tianxuan Island is me, He Huai. He Huai continued before the other party could finish speaking, It was in this jungle that I went from being a person with physical skills to a person with equal abilities. A genetically modified person mutated into a real superpower and grew into a ferocious ability user in just one year.

I admire you for having the courage to be the first batch of experiments on something you made… I admire you. Yan Wushang’s words were not a compliment, but sincere.

Haha, scientists should all be a little bit like Banner and Osborne, right? He Huai immediately cited two examples that were not worth learning from.

Hmm… If I had to describe it, I think it’s more like ‘I was very confident in the toilet I cleaned, so I licked it’. But that’s okay. Yan Wushang finally couldn’t help it. Here comes a trash talk.

When He Huai heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched a few times, and he didn’t know whether he should be angry about such a thing.

But in the end, he still held back and spoke again: As for the second ‘qualified person’, I can’t tell you too much. You just need to know that she is an existence that no one can afford to offend…

Okay. Yan Wushang thought for a few seconds and asked, Then what are you going to do next? Take me to see the ‘Master Jue’ you call me?

Yes, but before that, you have to meet another person first. At the same time as He Huai said these words, the that person he was talking about had already walked out of the jungle behind him.

Yan Wushang moved his gaze towards the man, and what he saw was a well-dressed Asian man in his thirties.

Mr. Yan, I have admired you for a long time. The man walked over and said to Yan Wushang, I am… Yue Xiabu Guangxiu.
