The specially hardened war boots pounded on the smooth floor and made crisp sounds, only further highlighting the abnormal quietness of the underground laboratory.
The rebels didnât dare to relax at all, looking around with guns at the ready.
This was completely different from the information theyâd obtained in advance.
Originally it was working hours, and the interior of the base that should be filled by moving people was empty. Only bright white lights illuminated the dark and gloomy, as well as obviously messy, underground base.The appearance of a few blood stains made people feel cold.
âWhat the hell! What the f*ck is going on here? This place has been ransacked!â One of the Resistance soldiers took off his mask and stared at the sight behind the glass wall to his left.
In a laboratory full of high-tech instruments, there was garbled code on the light brain, and the floor was stained brown with dark, dry blood.
Several white uniforms covered in crimson were thrown to the ground in a messy manner, the line connecting the experimental platforms also pulled out. Silver currents crackled from time to time in the broken interface.
A tough-faced soldier reached out to help his teammate close the face shield and said coldly, âPut your mask back on, something wrong has happened here, and I have a feeling its related to the people ahead of us!â
The Resistance soldiers were facing ahead, and several researchers in white uniforms isolated in the glass wall stood looking at them, their hands pressed against the transparent barrier, their gazes extremely cold.
An icy-faced warrior â Captain Norton Spark â looked at the researchersâ emotionless grey eyes and frowned.
I feel that the this missionâs situation is a little strange. ă ââFromăFatal Infectionă
The morning sunlight fell on the soft bed in the room through the curtainâs gaps. Zhou Yuâs eyelashes fluttered and his eyes opened.
The dark blue ceiling came into view, and Zhou Yu froze for a few seconds before finally remembering where he was.
Sitting up abruptly, he looked at the empty bed beside him, and blinked doubtfully.
Where did Birus go?
Stepping out the room, Zhou Yu smelled the sweet scent in the air, the smell of cream.
Walking to the kitchen, it really was his lover Birus making breakfast.
Seeing that his lover was still there, Zhou Yu immediately relaxed and turned to wash in the bathroom, so he missed the scene where his lover hid a broken hand deep in the refrigerator.
After washing, Zhou Yu found that Birus had cooked the meal, so he went to the kitchen curiously, and wanted to see what his lover did for breakfast.
Eating cream in the morning? Was it this worldâs tradition?
Zhou Yu watched his lover spread the layers of cream on the toast, and powerlessly helped.
âYou got up early, Birus.â Zhou Yu saw the man turn around and look at him, and immediately smiled.
Regardless of what your lover makes, itâs great for them to get up and cook so early! He must give his lover a big reward!
Zhou Yu stepped forward and kissed him.
Birus looked at the dark-haired young man softly, his heart filled with tenderness.
His expressions were obviously more vivid than yesterday, he was no longer limited to just staring at Zhou Yu blankly.
Because the closer he was to his human being, the more difficult it was to suppress his inner love and obsession.
After learning a lot from the mercenaryâs memory, he also gradually learned how to express his love, doing things such as kissing, things such as smiling.
Birus hugged and kissed the youth with a smile, and asked, âHow are you feeling today? Are you better?â
âOf course, from today on, that will never happen again! I feel so good now!â Zhou Yu could feel that this body had fully adapted to his soul, and yesterdayâs pain had disappeared without trace.
Dripââdripââ
Hmm? Whatâs that sound? Did Birus forget to turn off the tap?
Zhou Yuâs hearing was very sensitive. When he heard a sound similar to water drops falling into the sink, he glanced at the closed faucet indifferently and said, âIs there a leak? I seem to hear the sound of water drops falling, pretty close nearby. â
âHave you? Well, maybe I forgot to do it somewhere, or maybe it did leak? Iâm not familiar with your kitchen, you know.â Birusâ expression remained unchanged, holding his sweetheart in his arms, he kissed him intimately.
âIâll check it in a while. You can have breakfast first. Itâs already half past seven. Will that delay your work schedule?â Birus buried his head in the neck of the young man, stroking the soft black hair, gray eyes looking at the palm of a sharply clawed hand with red nail polish faintly exposed in the unclosed cabinet opposite.
And a few drops of blood slipping down a pale finger.
Zhou Yu remembered that the originalâs clock-in time was 8:15 am.
âAh, youâre right! I have to hurry!â Zhou Yu didnât want to lose the originalâs job. After all, he was really interested in the technology of this futuristic world, and this job was undoubtedly the best place to find accessible high-powered technology.
In fact, after experiencing these worlds, he could also feel that the original ownerâs personality would leave some traces when it left the body and would have some influence on him after each reincarnation.
For example, the first world changed his introverted and lonely personality and made him cheerful and generous, while in the second world he inherited the paranoia of the original owner Cariell, which caused his mental instability in the later period.
In this world, his soul had become very strong, and the influence of the original owner wasnât that great. It could only be said that heâd developed an interest in scientific research.
The original owner, with his own talents, stood out from countless people before entering the current underground experimental base. If he didnât rely on his interest in scientific research, the original owner would not be able to achieve this monumental goal.
Breakfast was served, and Zhou Yu ate the breakfast made by his lover with high expectations.
In fact, whether it tasted good or not, he would still have a look of appreciation, because this was a meal made with all of Birusâ heart.
The whole apartment was filled with the sweet aroma of cream due to the heavy amounts used in the meal.
At first Zhou Yu thought that the butter toast that was made by Birus would be too sweet and greasy, he didnât expect to be surprised by the taste.
The creamy toast tasted soft and delicious, with a moderate sweetness, everything was just right.
âBirus, your cooking is amazing! It is so delicious! Thank you my dear!â After Zhou Yu took a bite, his eyes flashed immediately.
No way, they couldnât eat anything delicious in the last lifetime, with its world in a medieval era, so even if he became a god, heâd not tasted the food made using modern technology for a long time.
Whatâs more, this was done by his lover himself, and the meaning was even different.
âI like sweets very much, Birus, you do too much for me!â
âThatâs good, I can make it richer next time!â Birus reached out and wiped the cream from the corner of Zhou Yuâs mouth, his eyes full of ingrained love, âIn addition, I also very much like it when you call me âdearâ. â
Zhou Yu saw Birus eating the cream from the corner of his mouth. Even though he was mentally an old wife with his husband, he couldnât help his flushing cheeks, hurriedly swallowing the last piece of toast. âI have to go to work! Youâve got the key, Iâll be back at noon! â
Passing the key to Bilus, Zhou Yu kissed his forehead gently, and then hurried out.
It was 7:55 now. Due to the speed limit, the suspension vehicle couldnât go any faster than it already was, it would be difficult to get to the experiment base on time.
Snapââ
The door closed, and Birus stroked the area on his forehead that was kissed, revealing a sweet smile.
His human being is so cute. He wasnât afraid of him being a bad person. Didnât he give him full accessibility to his belongings?
Sure enough, he loved him deeply. They belonged to each other and nothing could break them apart.
Birus kissed the key in his hand lovingly, and placed it in his pocket.
When he got up, he picked all the dishes on the table and put them in the automatic washing machine.
Then, Birus opened the cabinet at the end of the kitchen and looked coldly at the head and arms belonging to a virus kin.
Next, he needed to reclean the building.
The connection between the parasites was too strong. Just last night, there were more than a dozen of his kin who synced with his love for Zhou Yu and aggressively approached him, causing him to hide body parts everywhere to avoid the human finding them.
The apartment next door was already full, and because of the distance, it was too late to hide the body there in case of emergencies.
The kin in the cabinet was one of the emergency situations.
At that time, he was under siege, and it was uncontrollable for a while. He was almost pushed to the bedroom by the kin, his human was already shallowly sleeping again and was about to wake up. He had to quickly divide the guy into several pieces and hide it in the refrigerator and cupboard.
In order to cover up the strong bloody smell, he adopted a method from the mercenaryâs memory, using an exotically scented cream for breakfast.
Fortunately, everything worked out. His human was very satisfied with the meal and gave him a kiss even sweeter than the cream.
Thinking of this, Birus smiled, humming a song and dragging the body out, ready to pile it up in the apartment next door.
The apartment building removed Skynet surveillance on the corridor for the so-called human rights treaty promoted by the Commonwealth in the past few years, which just facilitated his covert actions.
***
Zhou Yu stepped out the door and quickly entered the elevator. He hurried in and pressed the button on the first floor, so he didnât see a red color left on the ground at the corner outside the elevator. It belonged to high heels and a few dark bloodstains.
H City in the early morning was still immersed in last nightâs indulgence.
In the past two years, the hegemonist supremacy of the federation had made it so that many people slept in, and many companies had delayed their work hours, which allowed Zhou Yu to smoothly drive out of H city without running into any traffic jams.
Although he didnât think it was worth celebrating.
You know, other companies had later clock-in time. Only this experimental base didnât. It was simply being a black company, but fortunately, his free time at least still belonged to him.
8:10
Zhou Yuâs suspended vehicle finally entered the entrance channel of the underground experimental base.
As he was about to enter the garage, Zhou Yu subconsciously glanced at an open space below the suspension track.
There was nothing there.
But it was strange, he always felt that someone was staring at him from there.
Zhou Yu glanced a little but found nothing wrong, so he ignored it, and drove into the underground experimental base quickly.
He was running late!
About thirty minutes after he left, the figure gradually appeared in the open space.
A group of people in strange attire stiffened, watching the rebels on the invisible shuttle, unable to move.
âAre you the mercenaries hired by the leader?â
***
Entering the base, his colleagues, as always, ignored the small, transparent researcher in their eyes â Zhou Yu â and Zhou Yu indifferently walked into his laboratory and looked at the task assigned for today.
His current laboratory was responsible for the organismâs genetic modification research, and the assignment wasnât complicated, because several other laboratories were also responsible for this research.
As for the distribution of this number of people, the higher level personnel in the base only cared about efficiency, no matter the amount of money needed.
The base was originally formed as a result of the discovery of alien life by an interstellar expeditionary fleet.
About the specifics of the discovery, the original master of Zhou Yuâs body had no idea.
It seemed that because of this alien, the federal government found it profitable, so it spent huge sums of money to build this underground experimental base, specializing in this type of research, and for the sake of profit, it also developed other scientific research projects.
Because it was controlled by the federal government, researchers had a very high salary, sufficient funding, and a variety of cutting-edge high-tech equipment. It had gradually become a dream paradise for graduates of all universities in the Federation.
Pressing the switch of the experimental platform, Zhou Yuâs clear black eyes reflected the blue data stream.
Although, this paradise was different from person to person.
At least, itâs just hell for the original owner.
Well!â
Zhou Yuâs wrist was a little hot. He lifted his wrist, and a bright red mark was imprinted on it.
There was a flash of consternation in his obsidian eyes.
