The World Below Surface

Chapter 146

Inside the research institute, Lin Chu was reporting to his superior.

What she experienced was really too unbelievable. In addition, her identity was special. After the branch was contacted and conducted preliminary tests, she fell asleep. In her sleep, she was transferred to the headquarters and reported directly to the top leaders of the institute with the highest level of confidentiality measures.

In the empty pure white room, Lin Chu, who had just woken up, was thinking about her experience. She suddenly felt something was wrong with her body. Before she could figure it out, the alarm sounded suddenly.

"What happened?" Lin Chu immediately drew his gun and stood on guard. "Where should I go now?"

The machine in front of him flickered for a moment, and made a judgment: "Underground storage, support is needed."

"receive!"

A circular passage appeared in the floor of the pure white room. Lin Chu jumped down without hesitation, grabbing the metal pipe in the middle that led straight down to the bottom floor.

Lin Chu knew that this was the most convenient passage to the underground storage vault, and it could be opened in an emergency. She was prepared.

but…

She found that she had fallen into a huge cage. She looked up and saw that it was surrounded by a sealed room like the one that contained other strange creatures. Lin Chu thought of many things in an instant. She forced her to calm down and asked, "Why are you holding me captive?"

"You've been infected." The camera in the corner of the empty room lit up with a red light, flashing.

"I have done a preliminary inspection. If there is a problem, I can investigate further instead of locking me up here. The situation is very critical now, and we need help." Lin Chu knew that the person who could make this decision must be the highest-level leader of the institute. She tried to convince him, but she also knew in her heart that the highest-level leader would follow her judgment and would not be easily convinced.

"Can you please investigate further? I haven't completed my mission yet!"

But no one answered her. Her voice was the only one echoing in the room. The lights were off, and in front of her were pale walls and a metal cage that no one could escape from.

Normally, the rooms in the underground storage warehouse were absolutely airtight and completely soundproof, but Lin Chu still vaguely heard some other sounds. She didn't know what that strange, low sound was, or which room it came from, but she had already begun to feel uncomfortable.

Gradually, the surface of her skin began to itch. Lin Chu began to realize that something was wrong, but she resisted the urge to scratch. In the darkness, dots of green light began to appear on the surface of her skin.

Why is this happening…

As the top member of this batch of investigators, enduring pain is just the most basic operation. However, Lin Chu found that the pain he had endured before was just a drop in the bucket compared to the pain he endured now.

The real pain was the torment that penetrated into the bone marrow and spread to every part of the soul. She couldn't even scream, and breathing became torture. Lin Chu endured it, or even if she didn't endure it, it was useless. She couldn't do anything. She could only watch the flesh on her body fall off bit by bit, the green and slender fungi broke through the pores and grew out of the bones, and the green blood slowly dripped.

The camera flashed red, and Lin Chu knew that the top leader was observing.

Just like other infected investigators before, once the infection is confirmed to be irreversible, it will be dealt with immediately. She has also dealt with the teacher before, and now... it's her turn.

The fuzzy brain could no longer think about anything. Lin Chu might still be thinking about what to do after the invasion of strange objects scattered in other worlds. She was still looking forward to being useful, but...

She opened her mouth and began to sing a song unconsciously.

No! Can't sing!!

The almost completely damaged vocal cords uttered a few fragmented lyrics, and Lin Chu quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth. However, even if it was just a few seconds, it was enough to attract his attention.

The address of the Institute's storage warehouse has always been a secret. Inside the storage warehouse, there is no way to communicate with the outside world, and there is no communication channel. In order to prevent others from exposing it, even the top leaders know the address, and no one has ever cracked it since its establishment.

However... after Lin Chu sang the first sentence, this secret was no longer a secret.

The cold wind quickly swept through the entire storage warehouse below.

The doors of the room closest to Lin Chu opened one after another, as if a gust of wind rushed in. Then, a chaotic fighting sound was heard in the room, similar to the sharp sounds of wild beasts roaring and screaming, and the sound of friction on the ground.

After a long time, the room became quiet. A gust of wind blew the door open and hit the wall.

The room was empty.

Lin Chu didn't know all this, and she had no chance to know.

"The objects in containment are collectively out of control, and the underground defense measures have completely failed."

"Activate the A-level plan, block the underground, completely blockade, and move to the sea."

In short, the so-called A-level plan is to completely pack up and seal the entire containment vault, and have investigators send it to a whirlpool in the sea and teleport it to another world.

"The sea is also infected. All the investigators from the 13th term have died. The 10th term may be responsible."

"approve."

The waves, which had turned into emerald green, hit the rocks, washing over them layer by layer, sweeping away many deformed fish that had turned into white bones. Layer after layer of white bones filled the shore, and the stench became stronger and stronger.

The members stationed at the coast were unable to clean up the bodies and retreated collectively.

On the top of a distant mountain, stood a man in full protective clothing. He looked through the mask towards a certain place, which was the direction of the underground research institute.

The rocks trembled, dust flew, and the land that looked no different from the rest of the land split open in both directions, and several planes took off. The bottom of the planes were tied with metal chains, and the other end of the chain was unknown.

Soon he saw it.

At the other end of the chain was a closed room made of unknown material. No one knew what was locked inside. It was very unstable and swayed in the air.

After rising to a high altitude, the plane's shells spread out and its wings extended again. The originally shaky flight movement suddenly became much more stable, and it flew steadily towards the depths of the sea.

The place where Lu Yanli was located was a branch he had found, located on the top of a small hill. If the plane wanted to fly to the sea, it had to pass under the hill. He had already made preparations.

At the closest moment, the shell hit the closed room hanging in the air.

A moment before the explosion, he entered another space.

He knew that the people in the research institute had already been studying how to go to the new world. Lu Yanli would not miss this opportunity, but he knew in his heart that the research institute would not let him join, as they would only take away pure and loyal humans.

Coincidentally, Lu Yanli was also unwilling to let the strange creatures pass by, and he would not let those things touch the new world.

Then... we can all stay here.

If these things gather together, they will devour each other, and he can take the opportunity to leave.

He still lied when facing the past. The statue was indeed difficult to deal with, and it was kept at the highest level of confidentiality among all the objects in the institute, but the institute was not without other strange objects of the same level of confidentiality, plus other objects of different levels, which were enough to delay the investigation.

The statue can take him freely through time and space, and has been looking for the headquarters. After finally finding the location, Lu Yanli entered the headquarters very smoothly.

A pure white.

There was almost nothing in the research institute except for various white instruments. Lu Yanli walked in the pure white corridor, knowing that someone behind him might be watching him, but he didn't care. Lu Yanli just wanted to find where the machines they had developed were.

All the places were white, and Lu Yanli didn't even see other people along the way. It seemed that he was the only one in the entire headquarters center. The ground was sloping downward, and the position of the wall showed that the entire passage was spiraling downward, and it seemed to extend in a certain direction.

Lu Yanli didn't know how far he had walked. The doors of the rooms around him were all closed. It seemed that the headquarters was just a pure white passage leading to an unknown place. He didn't even know how far he had to go.

"Are you sure this is the way? You promised that you wouldn't go the wrong way." He seemed to be talking again.

After another turn, he finally reached the end.

At the end of the passage was a familiar pitch-black door. He had seen it in the other world in the mirror and in the tomb. He never expected that he would see this familiar door again in this underground research institute.

Lu Yanli was still wearing protective clothing. He walked forward slowly and pushed the door open little by little.

This was not the first time he had broken through the underground of the research institute in his several reincarnations, but he didn't know what he had seen. Every time he reincarnated, he would make him forget what he had seen before. He had been prepared, but the scene in front of him still surprised him.

"Why are you here?"

Hearing the door open, a young man turned around and looked at him. The two men had exactly the same face, the difference was that the man who pushed the door open had a scar on his face that had not yet healed.

Behind him, countless wriggling, bloody, red tendon-like objects took root in all directions of the room, and their other ends gathered on the thing floating in the air in the room.

It was a human brain.

Strictly speaking, it is not a pure human brain. Half of it has a metallic luster, and the other half is in the shape of a human brain.

"How did you find this place?" The scarred man looked at the pile of strange things behind him and continued to ask.

"We are the same person. If you can find it, of course I can find it too." Lu Yanli, who was standing at the middle of the room, laughed. His laugh was not to show off or anything else. Instead, it was filled with sadness. "I want to ask you, did you find it the last few times?" He pointed at the human brain in mid-air that was constantly absorbing nutrients.

"This is the top leader of the institute..." He is also the culprit who has shattered countless worlds.

Lu Yanli, with scars on his face, said: "Maybe I have been here before, but I chose to forget it. But now, I remember it again..."

He walked towards her step by step: "Guess, why should I let you forget?"

Two identical people stood together.

The human brain in mid-air suddenly began to talk. The voice was very strange. It was hard to tell whether it was male or female, old or young. It didn't sound like a synthesized electronic sound that you would forget after hearing it. It was just like a human, laughing as it talked: "Long time no see, how come you two have become two different people?"

"Do you know me?"

"Of course." The voice was still smiling, but full of malice, "You were once contained, a subject with the highest level of confidentiality..."
