——Dr. Isaha’s memo (speech to text)——

A week ago, when they brought in the research materials left by the laboratory assistant at a second-rate university, I didn’t take it seriously at all.

After several days, I opened it on a leisurely afternoon with the mentality of watching a joke.

Then, I was stunned.

I almost peed my pants that afternoon because I was so absorbed in reading the information that I completely lost track of time and even forgot to go to the toilet.

Later, I summoned the entire department to watch it together, and then… As expected, my team and I were psychologically severely affected.

There is no doubt that we people have always regarded ourselves as elites, and there are many so-called prodigies with high IQ who were admitted to universities at the age of fourteen or fifteen.

Being recruited by EF confirms that we are the best among people and the best scientists of this era.

But after reading the research materials left by that perverted Mr. Criminal, I understood that I was just a mortal, a sad, arrogant mortal.

If he is the kind of guy who can build an Ark reactor with some scrap metal in a cave, then we are a group of wastes who stay in the laboratory and burn a lot of money but only produce garbage.

After realizing this, I felt relieved. I decided that from today on, I would grill octopus in a beaker every day and use test tubes as seasonings for the rest of my life.

——Colonel Planck’s diary (Note: Since Colonel Planck insisted on writing the diary on paper instead of using electronic files, we only rescued some incomplete contents after the fire)——

(Date and beginning have been burned)

Isaha has gone crazy. When he first started grilling the octopus, I thought he was just joking, but then he actually stole the test subject…(the paper here is burnt and cannot be read) and planned to make it into a dish.

We had no choice but to lock him up.

His psychological evaluation report will determine his fate, and I think the results will be available within forty-eight hours.

(This place was burned down by fire, leaving a section blank)

…Those guys in the lab haven’t been normal lately.

I’m not familiar with them because I hate nerds, but a lot of them have been doing weird things lately and it’s hard not to take them seriously.

Just this morning, a bald man in a white coat touched my back with a scalpel. I swear, if I hadn’t heard the footsteps in time and turned around immediately, this guy would have raised his hand to wipe my neck. ; Although he had not raised his hand at that time, the murderous aura could not escape the eyes of a person like me who has experienced many killings.

I have to find out what happened in the laboratory as soon as possible. Although I have always found EF to be a creepy place since I was transferred, the situation this time… (the bottom has been burned).

——Internal briefing from Colonel Burgess——

The previous incident report has been filed in the B-level file [Accident21890904] and will not be repeated here.

I personally regret the death of Colonel Plank.

Since the former factory director Li Jia has resigned, I have now taken over the security authority of EF and also served as the interim factory director.

From now on, all department affairs and processes must be reported to me, and I will provide unified command and coordination.

Extraordinary times, extraordinary rules, please cooperate.

——Accident21890904 (a text report generated by the system based on the images transmitted to the cloud in real time by all smart probes in Facility No. 1)——

09:35, in the main laboratory, B-level scientific researchers 2455, B-level scientific researchers 1713, and B-level scientific researchers 0923 used laboratory equipment to prepare an unknown mixture.

At 09:48, B-level scientific researcher 0923 began to spray various monitoring probes in the main laboratory with canned hair dye. During this period, the monitoring system automatically issued a voice warning to the main laboratory and notified the security department.

At 09:50, two security personnel arrived, but they were unable to open the main laboratory door or communicate with the personnel inside.

At 09:53, Colonel Plank came to the corridor outside the main laboratory door, and together with six security personnel who arrived one after another, issued a final warning to the three people inside the door.

At 09:54, Colonel Planck initiated the emergency process with A-level personnel authority, and the system forced the laboratory door to open. After the door opened, three unidentified humanoid creatures about three meters tall rushed out of the laboratory and had a physical conflict with the security personnel. During the conflict, six security personnel and two unknown creatures died on the spot. Colonel Plank suffered a minor injury. was wounded, and pursued the remaining unknown creature.

At 09:59, the unknown creature approached the experimental subject warehouse via the shortest route, causing casualties to eleven more security personnel on the way.

At 10:07, an unknown creature broke into the experimental subject warehouse, passed the DNA permission verification of B-level personnel, and unlocked all the petri dishes, closed chambers, cells and other prison equipment that can be unlocked at this level.

At 10:08, the system issued an evacuation alarm to all units underground and above ground in Facility No. 1.

At 10:09, Colonel Plank joined all remaining security personnel in the base to block the exit of the experimental subject warehouse.

At 10:12, some experimental subjects began to destroy the Class A prison equipment, and others began to attack the exit.

At 10:15, damage to multiple armor plates and multiple structural damages inside the base were detected. The system concluded that it was 96% likely to be caused by the ability of the experimental subject (shielded).

At 10:17, all the probes inside the physical warehouse were destroyed, the exit was also breached, and a large number of high-risk experimental subjects poured out.

At 10:20, Colonel Plank and all security personnel were killed, and the last probe in the corridor in the area was destroyed.

At 10:22, the base damage rate surged, and many fire protection systems were triggered or destroyed.

At 10:28, all signals were lost.

——Memo from Chief Burgess (speech to text)——

As of yesterday, the investigation and cleanup work were almost in progress.

FCPS has also raised Pharmacist to a higher wanted level… Yes, that kid has a nickname now… But that’s not the point anymore.

This pharmacist is really smart, and he can be said to have tricked us. Oh no…I hadn’t come to EF at that time, so he just tricked others and had nothing to do with me.

In short, after inspection by the technical department, the cause of the incident was clear: it turned out that the boy had hidden anti-theft measures in his research materials.

It was a simple small program, not a computer virus, and it was encapsulated in a very common copycat office software. It was used as a medium for storing and opening data, so the firewall would not react to it at all.

As for the effect of that small program… it is a trick similar to hypnosis or psychological suggestion.

When someone views the research material, the small program will project some images with suggestive information onto the screen at a certain frequency; these images are translucent and only appear for a few milliseconds at a time. Normally When people look at it with the naked eye, they don’t realize that these images have flashed.

However, if you watch it for a long time, the images accumulated frame by frame will have an impact on people and implant all kinds of crazy thoughts into the mind of the viewer.

And we all know that the people in the laboratory are basically studying the information left by the pharmacist day and night, so… they are all affected to varying degrees, and their performances are also different.

To be honest, if each of them was like Dr. Isaha, everything would be fine. Unfortunately, there were three of them who concocted some new things while insane, which caused the accident.

The good news is that they prepared the mixture under the surveillance of probes, and the new team is already restoring and looking for test subjects for experiments… Being able to get this formula can be considered a blessing in disguise.

At present, although the technical department has removed the anti-theft measures left by the pharmacist in that document, the researchers in the laboratory are going crazy and dying. I have to find another person and build a team. Rebuilding EF’s scientific research department.

And as far as I know, the best scientist in this era and on this planet is a guy who is as crazy as a pharmacist.

That is my old classmate…Dr. Victor Franklin.

A man who is an incompetent person but is still imprisoned in the Jianquan Kaofen level of the Nine Prisons.

I think, with his IQ, he can definitely guess… I was the one who put him in jail and got promoted and made a fortune because of it. The question now is, will he come out to help again because of the conditions I offered him? And me?
