The next morning, Yu Ran arrived at the research institute building of the Federal Central Academy of Sciences on time.
Dad used to be a staff member of the research institute and was the main person in charge of Professor Mo Wei's "Regenerative Therapy Device" project team. Yu Ran came here many times when he was a child. At this moment, looking at the familiar building in front of him, Yu Ran no longer had the joy and excitement he had when he came here as a child.
Dad is no longer here.
But beneath the gentle and kind appearance of the teacher whom my father once respected the most was inhumane greed and arrogance.
Perhaps, Mo Wei's growth process from C-level to S-level guide was not smooth, and he developed such an extremely conceited character. He believed that guides were the best evolvers and sentinels were just "garbage with genetic defects that should not exist", so he wanted to control the sentinels to become his puppets.
How many innocent sentinels were killed and how many families were destroyed by his drug research
This Mo Wei deserves to be cut into pieces.
Yu Ran closed his eyes, hiding the immense hatred he had for Mo Wei in his heart, and pretended to walk into the research institute building calmly.
Someone greeted him at the door. It was a young female guide whose spiritual body was a flounder. She looked to be only about 20 years old, wearing a white coat of a scientific researcher. She smiled and said to Yu Ran, "Yu Ran, Professor Mo Wei is waiting for you on the top floor. I'll take you there."
Yu Ran nodded, followed her, and took the elevator to the top floor.
The research building has a total of 68 floors. There is a wall of French windows on the top floor, and you can clearly see the scenery outside the window. Standing on the top floor and looking down at your feet, the pedestrians on the street and the suspended vehicles on the high-speed sky are as small as ants.
Mo Wei was standing in front of the French window, squinting his eyes and looking out the window. It felt good to be standing high up and overlooking the world. He always believed that only by standing high up can one see far. And his visionary experiment will be the greatest invention in human history.
Hearing the knock on the door, Mo Wei turned around and met a pair of bright, heterochromatic eyes.
This pair of eyes is very distinctive. The right eye is as clear as amber, and the left eye is like red crystal. Seeing heterochromia for the first time may seem strange, but the longer you look at it, the more beautiful it becomes.
Mo Wei smiled and waved at Yu Ran: "Yu Ran, come and sit down. I have something to tell you."
"Hello, professor." Yu Ran put the fruit basket he brought with him on the table: "These are fruits grown in the Lu family manor. I picked them for you myself."
Mo Wei glanced at the fresh fruits in the fruit basket and said with a smile, "Why did you bring anything here?"
Yu Ran said, "Didn't you say that you wanted to take me in as your last disciple? How can a disciple come to see the master for the first time empty-handed?"
Mo Wei smiled even more happily when he heard this, and patted Yu Ran on the shoulder: "What a sensible child. How is Lu Zexuan doing?"
Yu Ran said: "Today is the weekend, so I just hypnotized him. He is sleeping at home now."
Mo Wei nodded with satisfaction: "Very good. You are indeed the person I have chosen. You are indeed cautious in doing things." He sat down at the desk and said: "Since I want to accept you as my apprentice, you should follow the rules and offer a cup of tea to the master."
Wasn’t it here that Dad served him tea back then
Yu Ran turned around, suppressed the sharpness in his eyes, and obediently went to the water dispenser to pour a cup of hot tea. He brought it over and handed it to Mo Wei respectfully: "Master, please have some tea."
Mo Wei took it with a smile and took a sip, then said with emotion: "I never thought that when I was almost seventy years old, I would still have a young apprentice who suited my heart. Speaking of which, I also had an older apprentice whom I particularly liked back then... Alas, he was too disobedient."
Yu Ran sneered in his heart.
He disobeyed and secretly investigated you, so you killed his entire family? !
You would never have thought that the little disciple in front of you is the son of your eldest disciple.
Mo Wei raised his head, looked at Yu Ran, and said, "Yu Ran, our great plan to change the future world must continue. It will take at least two generations of efforts to completely eliminate those sentinels. You are a good seedling that I have chosen. From today on, you will continue to supervise Lu Zexuan on weekdays, and come to study with me on weekends. With your memory and comprehension ability as an S-level guide, I believe you will be able to learn it quickly."
Yu Ran pretended to be excited and said, "Master, I will study hard and live up to your kindness."
Mo Wei nodded with satisfaction and said, "By the way, in order to go undercover beside Lu Zexuan, you have been claiming to be a C-level guide. I can't possibly accept a C-level guide with mediocre qualifications as my apprentice..."
He frowned and thought for a moment, then came up with an idea: "Why not tell others that you are a rare growth-oriented guide like me? I discovered your talent and want to focus on training you. This way, you can grow into an S-level guide without arousing suspicion."
Yu Ran smiled and said, "I thought so too. In fact, when I was studying at the Guide Academy, I told my class teacher and Dean Xie that I was a growth-oriented guide. Dean Xie taught me personally and let me graduate early. However, when I graduated, my mental strength was only B-level. Recently, I can say that I have grown to A-level. Next month, under your training, Master, I will grow to S-level. What do you think?"
Mo Wei said: "Very good! We are very close as master and disciple. A growth-oriented guide is indeed the best excuse."
Yu Ran asked curiously, "Master, did you grow from C level to S level?"
Mo Wei touched his chin and said with a half-smile, "I was already 16 years old when I awakened. At first, I was a C-level guide and suffered discrimination. Later, my mental strength gradually increased, and their attitudes also changed. Don't you think it's interesting?"
Yu Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "Those people must be looking down on you. They didn't see your talent, Master."
Mo Wei chuckled and sighed, "Yes. So, I used those Sentinels who looked down on me when they were young as the first batch of experimental subjects. When they went berserk, the painful and shocked expressions on their faces were really interesting."
Yu Ran: “…”
It seems that Mo Wei suffered a lot of grievances during his "growth process", so his psychology became more and more abnormal.
Mo Wei stood up and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to see our laboratory first."
Yu Ran followed Mo Wei and came to the secret laboratory of the research institute.
This laboratory was set up with many passwords. Mo Wei unlocked it with his pupils, and Yu Ran followed him into the room. Several scientific researchers were doing experiments seriously. There were several advanced scientific research instruments on the white desktop, and test tubes and medicines of various colors were neatly placed. It looked no different from an ordinary laboratory.
No one knows what horrible drugs they are researching.
Yu Ran calmly followed Mo Wei to visit the laboratory. Mo Wei introduced the members of the experimental team to him: "These people are the core members of our experimental team. This one is Yu Ran, my new apprentice, a growth guide, who has now grown to level A. Let's get to know each other first."
Yu Ran said politely: "Dear senior brothers and sisters, please take care of me."
Several people laughed and joked, "That's great! Congratulations to the professor for accepting a little apprentice! Our scientific research strength has increased again."
"Professor, do you want Yu Ran to participate in the next genetic experiment?"
Genetic experiment? Yu Ran felt a chill in his heart and asked curiously, "What is a genetic experiment?"
A guide explained with a smile: "The Sentinels have genetic defects, which leads to frenzy. We want to reduce the birth rate of Sentinels from a genetic level and completely change the population structure of the human world."
Yu Ran: “…”
Are they going to experiment on unborn babies? These people are crazy!
Mo Wei said with an intoxicated look on his face: "About 100 years later, there will be no more sentinels in human society. Instead, there will be more excellent guides. Without sentinels, the most troublesome combination fever of guides will also disappear from the root."
Yu Ran looked at Mo Wei with admiration: "Professor, you must be the greatest scientist in human history."
Mo Wei was even happier after being praised by him. This little apprentice was smart, sweet-mouthed and sensible, but ruthless when it came to killing people. He was exactly his ideal apprentice!
It is not easy to find juniors who share the same ideas as me.
After showing Yu Ran around the laboratory, Mo Wei, who was in a good mood after being coaxed by Yu Ran, revealed another key piece of information to Yu Ran: "By the way, the president of the Guide Association will be re-elected at the end of this month."
Yu Ran asked in confusion: "Re-election? Mr. Ludwigi, isn't he going to be the president anymore?"
Mo Wei blurted out, "He's too busy to take care of it." Realizing that he had let the cat out of the bag, Mo Wei hastily added, "Ludvisi has been the president for more than ten years and wants to step down. Our current candidate is Ms. Adeline. She has strong financial support. As long as she is successfully elected as the president, the Guide Association will still be under our control."
Yu Ran said: "Adeline is also very famous among the people. She often does charity work. It will be no problem for her to run for president."
Mo Wei patted Yu Ran on the shoulder and said earnestly: "You are still young, so follow the research team to do experiments first. When Adeline retires, I will nominate you to be the next president."
Yu Ran smiled brightly: "Thank you for your kindness, Master. If I can become the guild leader, I will be considered the most promising one among the star pirates!"
Mo Wei said: "By the way, you are a pirate. I have good news for you. When the next president takes office, he will cancel the plan to eliminate pirates. Pirates no longer have to flee around in the universe. Speaking of which, pirates have helped me a lot over the years. Now I have accepted a little pirate as my apprentice. This can be considered a kind of fate!"
***
At noon, Yu Ran had a quick meal at the research institute and observed the scientific researchers there quietly.
This research institute must have undercover agents sent by the Star Legion and the Falcon Legion, but it is not convenient for him to contact those people now, so as not to expose himself. Time is running out, and he must find the list of members of the Dark Night Organization as soon as possible.
Lu Zexuan's voice came from my mind: "Of course, are you okay?"
Yu Ran said, "It's okay. I talked with Mo Wei for a whole morning and finally understood why those people were willing to join the Dark Night Organization."
Adeline had endless wealth, but she longed for power, so they promised her to become the next president of the Guide Association; the pirates had strong combat capabilities, but they had been besieged by the Federal Army, so they promised to cancel the extermination plan and let the pirates move freely.
Giving everyone what they need, it's no wonder these people are willing to cooperate with Mo Wei.
Ludwig is busy? Of course he is busy, because he has to pretend to be the president and continue his speaking tour. He must hand over the presidency of the Guides Association to Ms. Adeline as soon as possible and concentrate on playing the role of president.
Lu Zexuan noticed Yu Ran's thoughts and said, "They really have a thorough plan. It seems that President Harrison is in danger. After the Guide Association re-election, Ludwigi can disappear and completely replace the president."
Yu Ran said: "We must expose them before the presidential election. During this time, I will try to find the list of the Dark Night Organization."
Lu Zexuan reminded, "The spiritual being in the research institute is the guide of the seven-spotted ladybug. Her name is Lu Xingyue. She graduated from the Department of Life Sciences of the Guide Medical College and is an agent sent by the Lu family. Maybe she can help?"
Yu Ran said, "I can't contact other people for the time being, so as to avoid Mo Wei's suspicion. I will find a way to contact her after I become familiar with the research institute."
Lu Zexuan said: "Okay, be careful."
***
At the same time, Marshal Qin Xiao and his group of six returned to the Red Spider Star Base safely.
General Lu Tingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him return safely.
Qin Xiao pulled the president, General Lu, Tang Ce, and Zhu Tianyi into the spiritual world for a meeting. General Lu hurriedly asked, "Marshal, how is it? Did you find out the truth in the clock constellation?"
Qin Xiao said confidently: "Ludwigi is indeed parasitized by alien creatures. The highly intelligent monster's parasitism method is very cruel. It can split its own limbs and cultivate new life. Its ultimate goal is to occupy the capital star and make the ocean of the capital star its new home."
Lu Tingyu and Harrison looked at each other in bewilderment.
Qin Xiao looked at Tang Ce and said seriously, "Next, Major Tang will secretly go to the capital planet and find a way to inform Lu Zexuan and Yu Ran of all the investigation results. Once they find out the list of the Dark Night Organization, we will join forces to launch a counterattack."
Tang Ce said simply: "Understood! I will leave today."
Chameleon lizards have excellent stealth capabilities, so it is not easy for Tang Ce to attract attention when delivering the message alone.
Qin Xiao looked at President Harrison and said, "It's time for a few of us to pay a formal visit to a human friend."
Harrison was stunned: "Friends of humans?"
Qin Xiao said: "Don't you think life here is very smooth? No wild beasts come to attack you."
Lu Tingyu thought about it carefully, and it was true. There were obviously some small animals on this planet, but they would consciously avoid humans. The small flying insects in the sky would occasionally come and buzz around them, and then fly away collectively.
I heard from Moore that Lu Zexuan pretended to be crazy and went on a killing spree, stabbing many teammates. Although the wounds were not fatal, there was a risk of infection. Or some strange spiders came over and helped them bandage and stop the bleeding
Zhu Tianyi asked in confusion: "Could the friends of mankind that the Marshal mentioned be alien creatures?"
Qin Xiao looked at Section Chief Zhu and said with a smile: "Come to think of it, she has some connection with your spirit body... She is also a spider."
