148, Chapter 148
Fourth floor, lab.
Sam took off his glasses and rubbed the root of his nose wearily: "how's it going upstairs?"
"it's all arranged." The deputy said, "this side of the laboratory is also completely closed, and you can't come in downstairs." It was a shame to be broken in yesterday.
"what about the workers?"
The deputy was stupefied for a moment: "there is no abnormal report."
"go and see if there is anything wrong and report it immediately. No accident is allowed." With that, Sam put on his glasses again. Unfortunately, there is no similar monitoring equipment, otherwise we can more intuitively see everything downstairs, so that the person who threatens him has nothing to hide.
The great shadow of this copy world, the civilization that interferes with the process of world civilization, needs things here, but it has always been on guard against them.
Sam turned all the secret rooms today. He didn't find the machine to make things, and he didn't see any books about production and technology.
It passes down words and numbers, but does not teach people here math, physics, chemistry and biology.
People here still use plant ash to stop bleeding when they are injured. In the past few decades, the life expectancy of human beings in this world has not become longer, and life has not changed fundamentally.
The higher civilization gave them only two things: the black cube and the machine that untied the black cube.
After God arrived in this world, the human beings here forgot how hard they worked to survive in this world.
Food, clothing, daily necessities, luxuries never thought of. Everything is readily available at a small price.
"very much like opium." Looking at the black cubes, Samantha said.
In the past, he thought that raising aristocrats by soldiers and the people was like deliberately raising trash and not giving them any ability to survive on their own. Well, at the moment, he found that raising this lower civilization was like raising waste.
As long as you provide a 'king', you can get any material you want without having to work hard. Do the people in the nest remember how to get food and daily necessities from the wild?
The 'king' who lost his ability to survive can only be exploited, aren't they?
"protect the ethnic group and find a new way out." This is Sam's task. He got a high-ranking role, but he was also burdened with a very difficult task.
The character has given such a task, which shows that he has discovered the hidden danger of this way of life, but he can't solve it by himself, procrastinating again and again until now.
"Boss, since the new queen is about to be born, then this one upstairs?" The deputy asked in a low voice, trying to get a clear instruction.
Sam knew what he meant and just disappeared.
However, in his impression, this kind of ant bee colony, the old queen is not the only way to die.
The queen is only about forty, and she still has a long way to go. Because even if the workers have to work hard every day, there are still 50 or 60 elderly people.
"have you ever heard of nesting?"
"Ah?"
Somewhere on the fifth floor.
"this way, please." The smiling soldiers led the aristocrats to a huge portrait, and she was the head of security for the wedding flight.
A man in the aristocracy had been peeking at her, and they were the couple the bug had seen.
This is a picture of the gods, but that's not the point.
"you brought us to see the painting? What is there to see in the painting? " The nobleman asked that they had lived here for more than ten years and had traveled everywhere. They had seen this picture hundreds of times, and no matter how beautiful it was, it could not surprise them.
"of course it's not for adults to come and see the painting." The female soldiers bent down and bowed to them, "Thank you for your existence, and thank you for the sacrifices you will make."
The nobles looked at each other and felt vaguely wrong.
Sacrifice?
It's just that they have been brainwashed for years to make them feel that adulthood is a great and sacred thing, and when they reach adulthood, they will go to the kingdom of God, just like their mothers and grandparents.
So the nobles just raised their jaws proudly: "of course, they are really great."
The female soldier stood upright, she did not know where to press the animation, the portrait slowly turned into a translucent film, the film was covered with water light, like soap bubbles in the sun, and the colorful film was wrapped in blue smoke.
After a while, the soap bubble burst, the blue smoke floated out, and a very special sweet smell got into their noses.
The soldiers and civilians did not feel very strongly, but the faces of the aristocrats began to turn red and their eyes were a little blurred. Their gasps became heavier and they stared at the other end.
It was a bright moonlit night, and the wind was blowing quietly, bringing a cool breath.
The female soldiers looked at the aristocrats, and the male aristocrat who had given her a promise had forgotten her existence. He looked out with love / tide in his eyes.
She stepped aside and let the moonlight fall freely: "Today, new hope may be born."
The nobles opened their eyes wide, their bodies glowing softly by the moonlight, and their wings vibrated slightly.
The instinct that belongs to the king's descendants is awakening, and their wings are much bigger, and when they vibrate, they can even float the whole person, Fly freely.
One by one the aristocrats could not help flying out of the square window, and the moonlight fell completely on them, reflecting a soft light.
Colorful spots of light scattered from the vibrating wings. Dots and dots are like dragging a river of stars.
Glowing nobles gather near the ground, and male and female nobles are drawn by instinct. A female aristocrat attracts three or four male aristocrats who lean together and their scattered spots of light come together.
In the moonlight, aristocrats like dancing moon elves, their bodies dance courtship along ancient memories.
"everything is going well." The female soldiers at the window said that there was a little cold smile on the corners of her mouth, and their bodies were also in the moonlight, but they were not affected at all.
The nobles danced in the moonlight, with soft light and scattered light. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, shaking their wings, sometimes gathering and sometimes falling apart, and dancing gracefully.
Suddenly, the faces of the female soldiers changed: "there are people in the grass!"
"whew!" At that moment, an arrow came down from the ground and hit a female nobleman in the neck. She stared, her hand touched the arrow that passed through her neck, and she lost her light, like a meteor falling to the ground.
"who?" The hearts of the soldiers are getting cold.
The next second arrows are like rain.
More than ten minutes ago, when the aristocrats were still flying unmarried.
"No one?" Breaking the ceiling of Gucheng's room, Ren Yifei climbed out of the ground on the third floor.
The third floor of the night is not dark, the walls of these rooms are covered with glowing plants, the light source is cold, and people look pale.
No one noticed his arrival. His movement was very small, and the hole was only enough for one person to pass through, and this side happened to be the noisy mother-baby area, and the baby's cry drowned out the sound of his drilling.
Ren Yifei carefully avoided the dozing gatekeeper, tiptoed carefully past the house full of parturients, and walked quietly towards the top of the stairs.
He is going to check on the fourth floor first.
First determine the use of the Black Cube, then go to the fifth floor through that hole yesterday, and finally lose Gucheng's vest and retire. The plan works.
At first he wasn't going to the fourth floor because Sam was there. With regard to the other party's observation, he went for a walk, and the clock on the first layer of the vest was removed, and he wanted to be more meticulous for a few more days.
But now that he has decided to give up the first vest, he will definitely have to go.
Well, for his friendship with dessert players.
In fact, he didn't worry too much about his task, and came purely because of a deathly nature called 'desire to explore'.
Ren Yifei thought carefully that if all his previous assumptions were true, and this copy of the human setting was infinitely close to the laws of most ant worlds, it would be too easy to destroy the nest.
Unlike bees, which are also superindividuals, in the kingdom of ants, once the queen dies and the new queen has not yet been bred, the colony will be reduced to extinction.
So, kill the two generations of queens, and the population is doomed. (there are also a very small number of ants that can survive without an ant king, which is a special case. )
As long as he can prove that the queen is indispensable, he will have seven or eight layers of confidence in destroying the nest.
Speaking of, this year's players can really hide, so far have not found a special play, even Sam even put up a decent npc.
Copy life is not easy ah, deciphering the problem of players have begun to grab the bowls of fake stream of jobs.
"Ah -" the woman's cry of pain interrupted Ren Yifei's thinking. He froze, stopped, looked surprised, and began to look for the source of the sound.
Is someone in the delivery room having a baby?
"Ah -" the woman's voice grew louder, just behind him, in the maternity section.
Listening to the sound of the beating, the woman in that room was already rolling in the bed with pain. But he looked up and saw that neither the child nor the gatekeeper did anything.
With a thump, he heard the people inside fall, while the pregnant women in other rooms woke up, opened the door and poked their heads out, with fear written on their faces, regardless of class.
"No one?"
"is she going to have a baby?"
They even ignored the sudden existence of Ren Yifei, who just stared at the room where the pregnant woman was screaming.
Finally, a pregnant woman in one of the rooms came out and she went into the room. She ran out in less than two minutes, and she went to the gatekeeper at the door: "somebody!" The water has broken! "
"the doctor had something to do today, so they all went upstairs. You can put up with it, or you can figure it out on your own. " Ren Yifei's ears heard the impatient words of the gatekeeper at the door.
How are we going to solve this by ourselves? At this moment, Yifei could not help grinding his back teeth when he was re-elected.
"with so many people here and a long evening meal, how can you do it without a doctor? If you don't go, you'll have to go! " The woman who ran out was a soldier, and she drew a knife to the gatekeeper's neck.
The gatekeeper could not help saying, "go and get it, but there is no guarantee that you will come."
"if you refused to come, I was knocked unconscious and dragged it over." Said the pregnant soldier, and stabbed it into the table.
The gatekeeper left and locked the door as he left.
The third floor was quiet for a second, and the next, the cries of women in pain and the cries of babies, large and small, sounded again in the distance. The departure of the gatekeeper had no effect on the matter, and the woman's screams faded away, with despair in her voice.
"will she die?" The pregnant woman with her head poking her head is holding her belly.
In fact, by this time Ren Yifei had almost reached the staircase to the fourth floor. As soon as he clenched his teeth, he retreated.
Without a doctor, many pregnant women here are not suitable for being a midwife, and he is even more unsuitable for himself, but.
"Mother-in-law Chunzhi, please have a look. There is a woman who is going to have a baby." He summoned his only ghost card, Chunzhi's mother-in-law.
I heard that in ancient times, many families' wives gave birth to their children with the help of their mother-in-law. Maybe Chunzhi's mother-in-law knows something.
Chunzhi's mother-in-law never dreamed that she would receive such a delivery task because she had all the abilities related to her ability to give birth.
However, she nodded: "Xiaofei rest assured that she was a midwife in her early years, and I delivered all her grandchildren."
"will fifteen minutes be all right?"
"in the past, the old man was just an ordinary old woman, so naturally she couldn't. But now you can. "
Ren Yifei understood this meaning. Chunzhi's mother-in-law's ability can make her mother and son safe at this time. He was overjoyed: "then please your mother-in-law."
"go ahead." She walked into the house which already smelled of blood.
