Chapter 141 Geng 19
Artificial hunter?
When Sun Hang heard this word, the first thing that came to his mind was Wang Xiyi's face.
Lao Wang is an "artificial hunter". Could this blockaded unknown island be her "hometown"?
"What type of man-made hunters are being studied on this island?" Sun Hang asked.
"I don't know about that." The chatty hunter shook his head, "Those guys in Tianshu Tower are very strict with their mouths, and we only got this little information after trying here and there."
"Why tell me?" Sun Hang glanced at him, "I never believe in pie-in-the-sky things."
"As future teammates, it's normal to share information... Besides, didn't you also tell me about Shuzhou?" The chatty hunter looked over Sun Hang's shoulder and towards the table in the other corner of the restaurant. He said with a hint of contempt in his tone, "Don't confuse me with those selfish Angsa people."
Sun Hang turned his head and looked in the direction of the chatty hunter's line of sight. He saw six people sitting around the table, all of them white. The guy who just broke into Sun Hang's room not long ago was also among them. .
They seemed to feel Sun Hang's gaze, and they all turned their heads and looked this way.
After his eyes met that guy, Sun Hang showed him an extremely bright smile.
The guy's expression changed slightly, and he immediately turned his head away, no longer looking at Sun Hang.
"Those people probably didn't hear me talking about them, right?" the chatty hunter said in a low voice.
"It's hard to say. Maybe one of them has the ability to eavesdrop." Sun Hang shrugged and said indifferently, "What are you afraid of? Anyway, you are telling the truth."
"I'm afraid that these narrow-minded guys will stumble us during the trial..." Sun Hang interrupted the chatty hunter before he finished speaking.
"If it makes you a stumbling block, just kill him."
In the urban area of Chunming City, Sun Hang still had to worry about the rules set by the Xiazhou Federation and Tianshu Tower, but on a deserted island full of unknown dangers, it was too easy to cause a few people to "accidentally die" But that's all.
Sun Hang's creed in life is very simple - I will not offend others unless they offend me; if someone offends me, I will kill his whole family.
If this group of Angsa people really dared to stir up trouble, Sun Hang wouldn't mind treating them as his own nourishment.
"...Brother, are you kidding me?" The chatty hunter couldn't help but shudder and asked cautiously.
"Yeah, I'm just kidding." Sun Hang smiled, "It's wrong to kill people casually."
At this moment, Sun Hang's cell phone rang again.
As his direct person in charge, when Yang Qi handed the phone to Sun Hang, she set a special ringtone for her own number, so Sun Hang knew the call was from her without taking out his phone to look at it. Called here.
"Hello?" Sun Hang answered the phone.
"Sun Hang, are you already at the hotel where the hunters are gathering?" Yang Qi asked straight to the point without any further nonsense.
"Yes, it's been a night, and I'm having breakfast now." Sun Hang replied, "I have to say, their soup dumplings are really good. Do you want me to pack one for you and take it over? ?”
"Let's get down to business!" Yang Qi said seriously, "Is there anyone around you now?" "It's dinner time, of course I'm not the only one in the restaurant."
"I'm going to find a secluded place. I have something very important to tell you."
"Okay."
Sun Hang said hello to the chatty hunter, and then went to the hotel toilet cubicle alone, using his ability to "make all his wishes come true" to build a simple soundproof barrier.
"Okay, you can say it."
"The trial location for the second stage is on a desert island three hundred kilometers east of Chunming City."
"..." Sun Hang wanted to complain. In less than twenty-four hours, this was the third person to tell him about this... It was like a piece of news being forwarded back and forth many times in a chat group. Every time the person forwarded it thought he was sending first-hand news, but he didn't know that he was the guy who had just returned to Earth from Mars.
However, he finally resisted the urge and listened silently.
"There used to be a research institute on that desert island that studied the 'Artificial Hunter' project, but then a very serious accident occurred. The project was urgently stopped, the research institute was closed, and the entire island was secretly sealed off." Yang Qi continued.
"The artificial hunter...is Lao Wang's hometown?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"No, this research institute was established much earlier... According to the information I obtained, it can be traced back to 4599 in the lunar calendar. It was established by the Xiazhou Federation and the Siberian Federation - at that time, the Siberian Federation was not the current Siberia. State, but one of the three giants in the world alongside the Xiazhou Federation and the United States.”
"Oh?" Sun Hang was slightly startled. It seemed that Yang Qi had obtained more information than the chatty hunter.
Of course, there was no guarantee that the chatty hunter would have any reservations about him.
"The name of this collaborative project is 'Codename: Chasing the Sun'. The main research content is to explore the feasibility of artificial integration between human bodies and monster memes... This is the first time that modern human civilization has made an attempt in this area, and even , eleven years earlier than the 'Super Soldier' project in the United States."
"So, what was the accident that caused the project to be suspended?" Sun Hang asked, "The test object lost control?"
"No, it's worse than that..." Yang Qi sighed, "The entire institute was transformed by an unknown force and turned into a Geng-type monster. In the following hundred years, there were signs of transformation. The trend of spreading across the island... In the archives of Tianshu Tower, it is named 'Geng 19·Unnamed Island'"
"Did any survivors escape from the island back then?" Sun Hang continued to ask.
"Eleven people escaped from the Nameless Island on a speedboat, but when the search and rescue team found them, they had gone crazy. Two of them were infected by memes and soon transformed into corpses. The remaining nine were All died within a year - two committed suicide, five died of accidents, and the last two died in a nursing home just one day apart. The forensic examination determined that they were sudden cardiac deaths."
"Accidents? Which accidents?"
"Two people were in a car accident, two lost their footing and fell from a height, and one drowned in the bathtub." Yang Qi said, "I feel that the person who drowned is more likely to commit suicide, but what is recorded in the file is Accidental death.”
[P.S. What do you think of the recent pace of plot advancement? Is it too slow, normal or too fast? If you have any suggestions or comments, you can put them in this section of the chapter. I will read them when I have time. 】
