Chapter 384 Mermaid Laboratory 26

Escape system: [Lord Bailishin, Xia Chi's curse has now dropped to 45, you can rest assured. 】

On the way back to the dormitory, the voice of the escape system sounded in Bai Lixin's mind.

Bai Lixin maintained his own rhythm and walked, [Where are the other players? 】

Escape system: [The curse degree of Song Yun just now is similar to that of Xia Chi, 50. As for everyone other than him, the curse degree is generally maintained at around 20. 】

Bai Lixin: […]

Xia Chi and Glasses are the most cursed. To say that they have done something different from other players, that is, they entered the underground tunnel of the deep sea with Dr. Blonde.

Bai Lixin: [Today is the tenth day of the mission. If we follow the progress of their curse, can Xia Chi persist until the end of the game? 】

Escape system: [Theoretically speaking, he will reach 90 or more on the last day, but whether he can persist until the last second depends on his luck. Player Xia Chi's luck has always been good. 】

Bai Lixin: [Okay, I understand, thank you. But this is no longer a case of pure luck. 】

Xia Chi passed through the underground tunnel twice. The first time he and Dr. Blonde left the submarine and stepped on the space.

The second time he and himself just passed through the submarine and did not leave.

Although Xia Chi passed there one more times than Song Yun, the final cursed area of ​​Xia Chi was even lower than Song Yun.

In this way, the acceleration of the curse should be related to the body's direct contact with that space.

It seemed that there were secrets he hadn't discovered in the tunnel occupied by the green-skinned monster.

Xia Chi's crisis has not been lifted.

At night, the institute, as usual, became deadly silent again.

Bai Lixin was about to go out when there was a knock on the door.

He opened the door and found Xia Chi standing outside.

To be more precise, it should be... talk about more.

Tan Yue and Xia Chi are actually quite distinguishable. Xia Chi's expression and eyes are more pure. Although he has stayed in this thriller game for three years, his pure nature has not changed.

In contrast, the more you talk, the calmer you are.

In the first second of meeting, Tan Yue said directly, "Need help?"

Bai Lixin looked at the boy's face with a completely different expression than usual, and pointedly said: "Are you so bold now?"

Using Xia Chi's body one after another, are you really not afraid of Xia Chi's discovery?

Tan Yue: "A fish's memory is only seven seconds, and a dog's IQ is the same as a child's IQ."

Bai Lixin: "..."

You arrange Xiachi like this, does Xiachi know?

_______________________________

Studio.

【What are the two of them talking about? Did I miss some important plot? 】

[I also think it's weird, it means that I don't understand it at all, especially Xia Chi, why is it "fish" and "dog" without a head or tail, what does it mean? 】

[I don’t know, what could be the secret language? What the heck, let me see what they're going to do! 】

________________________________

Tan Yue: "Are you planning an underground laboratory now?"

"No," Bai Lixin shook his head, "I'm going to lie down in the sewer first. My mission is to rescue all 51 mermaids, including the little mermaid in the sewer."

Tan Yue: "Have you found a way to rescue the mermaid?"

Bai Lixin's eyebrows suddenly raised: "Yes, I have a plug-in."

envy you.

Tan Yue just gave a soft "Oh", "Actually, after tomorrow, all my tasks have been completed."

he paused

Dayton, adding: "Including hidden missions."

Bai Lixin: "..."

Go, you go now, and immediately disappear from my eyes.

"But 'I' can complete these tasks, and I would like to thank you. My head is dizzy today. If it wasn't for you, my situation might be very dangerous, and I wouldn't have the chance to stand in front of you like I do now. You talk," Tan Yue changed the conversation, his expression gradually became solemn, "I always wanted to say thank you to you face to face."

Bai Lixin: "."

He understood that the "I" in Tan Yue's mouth was referring to Xia Chi.

And he said "the brain is dizzy", and considering the fact that Xia Chi asked him yesterday if the system would doze off, Tan Yue is very likely to fall into a short sleep after hearing the mermaid's song last night. , so it did not appear in time.

"Actually, the curse on you has not been completely lifted." Since the other party is Tan Yue, there is no need to hide it, and Bai Lixin believes that even if he doesn't say it, Tan Yue should know about Xia Chi's situation, "The remaining five It is very likely that your cursed area will reach 100."

Tan Yue: "I know this, you have helped me a lot, I don't need your help in this matter, I will solve it."

Bai Lixin: "How to solve it?"

Tan Yue: "I will go to the undersea tunnel to find the secret of the curse."

Bai Lixin: "Are you okay with yourself?"

Tan Yue laughed, and his eyebrows suddenly raised, "It's just a bunch of scumbags, they're not my opponents."

The moment he laughed, the boy was originally dull

His expression changed in an instant.

Through this face, Bai Lixin seemed to see the free and easy appearance of a high-spirited young man.

Tan Yue and Xia Chi are the same age.

If not into the thriller game, the two of them are indeed in their best years and most confident times.

Bai Lixin: "Submarine for you?"

Tan Yue: "Okay, thank you."

Bai Lixin: "You're welcome."

He looked at the rare Tan Yue, and actually wanted to ask something about their era.

But knowing that it's live now /> Although he didn't speak, Tan Yue understood what he meant.

When he put the submarine props into Xiachi's backpack from Bailishin, Tan said more meaningfully: "It's not the time yet, we still have a chance to meet in the future, I'll go first, I wish you well transport."

Tan Yue just walked two meters away when something seemed to sound, then he turned his head and walked back.

"By the way, it can't be in vain. I'll give you a lucky value up bonus."

He said and smiled at Bai Lixin, "By the way, let me tell you a secret. There used to be a very strong person, and his luck value was as miserable as yours."

Bai Lixin: "."

Do you think I don't know who you are by name?

I already knew about this.

A card was suddenly quietly stuffed into Bai Lixin's palm.

The sound of the escape system resounded in my mind.

【Ding! Congratulations to Bailishin players, you have obtained an S-rank rare item card [Bipolar Reversal]. This item card is a consumable one-time item card, which can be used once. After use, you can specify a specific attribute of yourself to reverse it. 10 minutes. 】

Bai Lixin: […]

Then if his luck value is reversed, can he not directly overturn the game hall?

Escape system: [Sir Bailishin, this card is very useful to you, please use it when you need it. 】

It wasn't until Tan got farther and farther that Bai Lixin quietly put the card into his backpack.

________________________________________

Bai Lixin set up a stealth card for himself and entered through the underground dormitory.

sewer.

He quickly found the tunnel where he saw the mermaid last time, and found the elliptical space.

The space is empty, with dark shadows laying in the corners.

Not long after Bai Lixin appeared at the entrance of the cave, two figures appeared in the dark shadow.

Human-faced monsters and little mermaids.

The human-faced monster stumbled and said, "You... come again... what are you doing?"

Seeing the two people leaning against each other, Bai Lixin was at a loss for words.

He had seen this space, and the wire was welded directly from the outside, and even he couldn't open the channel and let the face monster out.

There is no food here. The reason why the human-faced monster has been able to survive is mainly because the mermaid has been bringing food back to it from outside.

If he takes the merman away, he indirectly pronounces the death of the face monster.

It's half-captured in this place and will die of dehydration.

Without getting an answer, the little mermaid blinked her innocent big eyes and tilted her head outside: "Yah?"

Bai Lixin swallowed: "When I was above, I overheard that he used to be a human, but later became a mermaid. But everyone who came into contact with the mermaid experiment was cursed, but he was not cursed, I want to know why."

"How much do you know about this matter?"

The human-faced monster looked at the well-behaved mermaid beside him, and then looked at Bailishin on the opposite side, and after a few seconds, he continued to use its unfamiliar language: "I can... tell you, but you must promise me ,one thing."

Bai Lixin: "What's the matter?"

The human-faced monster put two fluffy hands on the mermaid's shoulders: "Take him away, he doesn't belong, here, he belongs to the sea. Save him."

Bai Lixin was stunned and looked at the face monster with complex eyes: "If I take him away, you will..."

The human-faced monster suddenly covered the ears and eyes of the mermaid, and shook his head at Bai Lixin in a place where the ignorant mermaid couldn't see: "I, know."

In just three words, it seems that all the strength has been used.

Bai Lixin was suddenly touched, and he nodded seriously: "Okay, I promise you."

A smile suddenly appeared on the weird face of the human-faced monster. When the corners of his mouth twitched, unnatural folds appeared where the human face and the animal were connected. , it stretched out its hand and pointed at Bai Lixin, "You do what you say, otherwise, I will not be a ghost, let you go."

Bai Lixin: "..."

Although, you may not believe it when you say it, ghosts are also afraid of me.

The merman had his ears and eyes covered, his body twisted and struggled for a while, and his arm also grabbed the arm of the human-faced monster and pulled it for a while.

Ignoring that his strength was still not as strong as that of the human-faced monster, after finally pulling it for a while without pulling it down, the mermaid simply gave up and lay in the arms of the human-faced monster.

The human-faced monster saw that the mermaid was quiet, and then waved to Bailishin, meaning to let him come closer.

Bai Lixin walked to the side of the human-faced monster, and the human-faced monster stuck out his tongue and licked the corners of his dry lips, "I am a researcher."

"I

Once, participated in the research of special species. "

Bai Lixin's eyes flashed with surprise and then calmed down: "."

At first I thought he was just an experimental subject, but I didn't expect to participate in the experiment, so why did he fall to this point?

"At the time, before I came here, I didn't know it was such a place."

"Later I found out that this institute is carrying out experiments that are against nature, and it plans to go out and ban it."

"But I miscalculated their lower limit."

"They closed the research institute. I had no choice but to leave. I could only stay in the laboratory, and I was forced to engage in research activities."

"Later, this institute caught a mermaid."

Bai Lixin interrupted the face

Monster's words: "How long ago?"

The human-faced monster thought for a long time, and finally pointed to the "ten" character on the wall, "Two years earlier than this."

Bai Lixin: "."

He still remembered that when he first entered this dungeon, when the system introduced the background, he said that the blue-tailed mermaid was not caught very early, only two years.

But the word "ten" on the wall of the human-faced monster draws a timeline of almost ten years. If it was two years earlier, it would have been twelve years ago.

That is to say, this research institute caught a mermaid for the first time twelve years ago!

These merman are not the first time they have caught merman!

Bai Lixin looked at the face monster: "Please continue."

The human-faced monster nodded, and the mermaid in its arms began to struggle again. The human-faced monster gently patted the back of the mermaid. With the gentle slap of the human-faced monster, the mermaid's movements slowed down again.

Until the end, the mermaid's arm quietly fell to the side of the human-faced monster, breathing evenly and rhythmically, it seemed that he should have fallen asleep.

The human-faced monster saw that the mermaid was asleep, and then continued to speak: "That's a female mermaid."

"She is, my love, and the mother of this child."

The expression on Bai Lixin's face finally cracked. He looked at the human-faced monster in surprise, and then at the mermaid sleeping in its arms.

child?

Mermaid and human child?

Human-faced monster: "But when the mermaid came, I didn't know that we would develop like this."

"That was a beautiful female mermaid. But at the time, she was very ferocious. She was very powerful and could easily use water to kill people. Many experimenters died because of this."

"At that time, I was inconspicuous, and I didn't help the progress of the research. I took over the task of taking care of the mermaid."

"I was very scared at first."

"But I found out later that the mermaid was very pitiful. Although it was ferocious, its ferociousness was only to protect itself and to defend itself with offense."

"It's frightened and scared, that's why it keeps attacking people."

"I sing to it, chat with it... and gradually, it smiles at me."

"Afterwards, we fell in love."

"We broke down the barriers of species and walked together, together."

"Mermaids are not animals, they are intelligent creatures, my love, and even learned the language of human beings. It's just that it can only speak to me."

"I'm going to take it and get out. It can't be here, its home, in the ocean."

"I planned the escape."

"However, just two days before it was about to escape, it was found to be pregnant."

"In the Institute, no one suspects that it's mine, boy. They thought it belonged to another merman that existed before the merman was caught, boy."

"But, because it was discovered that it was pregnant, the institute stepped up its monitoring. I couldn't find any chance to escape."

"Finally, one night, I found the opportunity. I hugged it, which was still a mermaid, and rushed out of the laboratory, following the planned route, to escape."

"However, it was just a game, a trap."

"We were caught."

"We were exposed."

"They're reluctant, moving mermaid, but I'm fine."

"They took me up and ran experiments on me."

"It may be because of my special physique, or it may be because I have been exposed to a chemical environment for a long time, increasing my resistance, or...it protected me. I did not die, but survived."

"They're on me, doing a series of experiments."

"My body has mutated."

"No matter what kind of injury, I will not die.

"

"They can't kill me."

"In the end, I became their most frequently used experiment. Every time they did experiments on me, they would bring the mermaid to me."

"They wouldn't let us talk, but then they told me a lot about mermaids."

"Three months later, the merman was born, our child. One, a boy, without a fish tail, and indistinguishable from a human, boy."

Bai Lixin: "..."

Human-faced monster: "Mermaid children grow faster than normal human children. At one year old, they have the appearance of three-year-old human children. At that time, the researchers wanted to take us away from the mermaid. Yes, child."

"The merman, it summoned the ocean, tried to flood the institute and snatch the child back."

"But it, just after giving birth, is very weak."

"But in the chaos, the child disappeared. In the chaos, he was hidden under the thick fur by me."

"The mermaid didn't know, it thought the child was gone and cursed this research institute."

"All researchers are under the curse of merman."

Bai Lixin: "..."

The curse of the mermaid, this is the curse of the mermaid.

Those green-skinned monsters in the tunnel, could it be that they became like that after being cursed by this mermaid?

Because the hated merman has turned himself into this, he will live there and instinctively hunt the hunter fish.

"And my merman, also in that curse, died."

"Later, the above thought that this place is unlucky. Find someone to seal the research institute in the sewer."

"When those people cleaned up this institute, they wanted to kill me to vent their anger, but I couldn't die, so they blocked me here, and let me live forever, imprisoned here."

The human-faced monster stretched out its arms, revealing the fur hidden; the belly of Bai Huahua was criss-crossed with wounds, "At the very beginning of this place, I used the flesh on my body to feed it to grow up." "Later, it It disappeared once. About half a year ago, when I was worried about it, it came back with scars. It can also become a mermaid."

"I think that it's its mother who is there to protect it and give it blessings."

"My love is dead. But the curse of the merman has not disappeared."

"It's been there."

"This is its punishment for human beings and the protection of mermaids. Those who try to touch the taboo will eventually be killed by the taboo."

"..." After quietly listening to the description of the human-faced monster, Bai Lixin sighed silently.

For some beings, I really don't know if the world is more purgatory, or death is more happy.

Bai Lixin looked at the human-faced monster: "So even if I take it away, won't you die here yourself?"

The human-faced monster laughed twice, but the smile was even uglier than the cry. Two lines of tears slowly fell from the corners of its skin-folded eyes, "For me, living is punishment, death is relief. I want to die."

"..." Bai Lixin, "Do you really want to die?"

Human-faced monster: "Think, I want to be free. Can you help me?"

Bai Lixin shook his head: "I don't know, how can I help you?"

Human-faced monster: "Your friend, under the merman's curse."

"My lover's body is missing. If you can find my lover's body and bring it back home, maybe the curse can be done, and the curse of the mermaid will be lifted."

"As for me, if you can kill me, that would be best."

Bai Lixin: "!"

Mermaid's corpse.

Bai Lixin suddenly thought of something, and quickly stood up from the ground, "I may know where your lover's body is, I will come back tomorrow! Wait for me!"

He says

After finishing this sentence, he turned around quickly and hurriedly left the underground space.

While leaving the sewer, he opened a private chat to send a message to Xia Chi.

Bai Lixin: [Are you there? 】

However, he did not respond.

Bai Lixin gritted his teeth and quickened his pace. He walked like flying, and he returned to the basement in two or three minutes after the original ten-minute journey.

After putting on stealth, Bai Lixin rushed out of the research institute and started to bsp towards the foot of the mountain; I hope Tan Yue hasn't left yet, and I hope he can catch up.

But it seems that his luck has not been very good. When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he could only see a quiet and dark sea, and there was nothing else.

An hour has passed since he and Tan became more and more separated. An hour was enough for Tan to dive deeper into the seabed.

If what the human-faced monster said was true, then in the tunnel maze of the ravine, there should be one of the corpses of the cursed mermaid.

When I saw Tan Yue's aggressive look just now, the movement must not be small.

How could he get the message of the female merman's curse to the other side?

Damn.

The only submarine gave Tan Yue.

If he is still the mermaid in the deep sea mermaid dungeon, he can swim.

The voice of the escape system sounded in Bailishin's mind at this time, [Lord Bailishin, of course you can become a mermaid. 】

Bai Lixin: [? ? ? ? 】

Escape system: [If this is the same world view of the previous Deep Sea dungeon, you can become a mermaid in this dungeon. Because your previous character was a deep-sea mermaid, theoretically speaking, you have the mermaid buff in this instance. The mermaid buff can be activated as long as you have the link connecting the two copies. 】

Bai Lixin took out the mermaid heart hanging around his neck: [Is it it? 】

Escape system: [Yes, Lord Bailishin. Try to see if you can activate the mermaid buff. 】

Although Bai Lixin felt that it was a bit mysterious, since the system said so, he tried to hold the heart of the mermaid tightly in the palm of his hand, and silently read the mermaid buff in his heart.

In the next second, he felt that his legs were starting to get hot, and the bones of his body were getting hotter.

The section also began to make a clicking sound.

Bai Lixin quickly got into the water and quickly took off his pants.

He looked at his legs with some curiosity, and saw that his originally slender legs were quickly glued together, and then scales grew and stretched at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After about two minutes, he who had to hold his breath found that he could breathe in the water.

Bai Lixin tentatively touched the side of the ear, and the ear didn't know when it became a huge fan shape, and the cheeks also grew on both sides of the cheek.

It also turned into a huge blue fish tail from the waist down.

Bai Lixin tried to shake the fish tail to find the feeling that it had disappeared long ago, but after a short period of rustling, he regained mastery of the effective operation of the fish tail.

After getting used to the skillful use of the fish tail, Bai Lixin shook his tail quickly and swam towards the undersea tunnel.

He just wagged his tail slightly, and his body shot out like a bow and arrow.

In his eyes, the fish around him seemed to be still, and in his eyes, everything seemed to be in the palm of his hand.

On the way to find the tunnel, Bai Lixin saw the tracker discharged from the institute again.

His eyes narrowed slightly, his hand was vacantly grasped in the sea, and a faint blue trident appeared in his hand.

I saw his tail fin swung again, and his body instantly turned into a meteor in the sea, rushing straight towards those probes!

_______________________________________

underground laboratory.

All the screens went black at the same time, and in the second before the black screen, they only captured a ghostly blue phantom.

Dr. Blonde suddenly stood up from his chair, "What's going on?!"

The remote driver was also a little dazed, and replied with sincerity: "The detector has been attacked."

Dr. Blonde: "Of course I knew I was attacked! Bring me the final footage!"

The operator hurriedly pointed on the big screen and put the final images of all detectors on the big screen.

A total of more than a dozen screens, all blue phantoms.

The speed is so fast that the high-speed camera can only see a blurred blue color.

Dr. Blonde was shocked: "Is this a sea creature?"

"how can that be?!"

"The farthest distance of the detector is thousands of meters. How can it appear in different shots in the same second? How fast is this monster? When did such a monster exist on the bottom of the sea?!"

Everyone didn't speak.

They looked at Dr. Blonde in silence, then you looked at me, I looked at you, and both saw horror in each other's eyes.

Their detector can support high-speed moving pictures, and these detectors can take pictures at speeds of less than 1,000 meters per second.

But...they couldn't photograph this monster. So how fast is this monster?

The phantoms on the two farthest detectors looked indistinguishable, which meant that the monster came to them within a few milliseconds or even a few microseconds.

Not only that, but it destroyed all the detectors in an instant!

Because the detector was suddenly swallowed by a whale last time, this time Dr. Blonde deliberately purchased another batch of detectors with a faster speed and a harder shell.

They've tested that even a ten-ton weight won't damage the detector's casing.

But this underwater monster did it.

What kind of combat power is this monster!

Dr. Blonde was shocked for a few meters and suddenly shouted: "It's belief, it must be the belief of a mermaid!"

"Apart from it, I can't think of any creature more terrifying than a mermaid!"

__________________________

Studio.

[Is it possible that the most terrifying thing than a mermaid is a mermaid? 】

[My own record is broken by myself. 】

[No no no, it should be the Xin Shen brand mermaid. 】

[But why did Xin Shen suddenly become a mermaid? No logic. 】

[No no no, take a good look again, what is the name of the prop on Xin Shen's neck? Mermaid Heart. Where did he get this item from? There are also statues of the seabed and the face of Xin Shen, is it too coincidental? I am guessing, is it possible that many, many, many years ago, Xin Shen once had this world view, but the era he entered was an earlier era. 】

【Have you not noticed? When Xin Shen was filling in the answer to Task 3, he first filled in the three words "Bai Li Xin". Xin Shen is not a narcissistic person, and he will not take risks with the number of answers. There must be a reason for him to fill in this way. As for the reason, is it possible that he found something? For example, he has come to this world view, and for example, he has really helped the ancestor of the mermaid before, and that mermaid's heart may be left over from the ancestor copy together. 】

[Fuck, is there such a detail? I haven't noticed. Gan, I watched the live broadcast as if to make up the numbers. You are all Sherlock Holmes. 】

【what! I didn't find out, what you said was true. However, I have basically seen Xinshen's dungeons. He has never entered any mermaid dungeons before. Could it be the time of Eternal Mark Diamond Mountain? 】

[No, no, no, no, I am a die-hard fan of Xin Shen, I remember Xin Shen was there

At the very beginning, I once entered a single copy. After he came out, his floor was

It went up a lot, maybe it was that time. 】

[How long before that? 】

[It should be the first few dungeons, because I remember that when he went to the undead dungeon to save Zhou Guang, he already had the heart of a mermaid, and he used this item to save a lot of players. 】

[Yes, yes, I also remember that with hundreds of people, the system almost got stuck. 】

[Help, it turns out that Xin Shen actually secretly turned into a mermaid behind our backs, so exciting, why don't you show us a picture of Xin Shen's mermaid. You said, was the boss in that dungeon at that time? If so, what was the boss? Under the sea, it seems that there are not many choices, right? 】

[Uh, I suddenly had a not-so-good association in my mind, under the sea /> [...Fuck, my XP moved, there should be a copy here. 】

[Drawing and painting, don't make any noise! 】

[Xin Shen’s mermaid looks so handsome, I announce that I was bombed by Xin Shen, especially when he just raised his harpoon to attack those detectors. 】

[It's called a trident, God is such a harpoon, can you not be so dirty. 】

________________________________________

Bai Lixin destroyed all the detectors before continuing to move forward.

He swam very fast, and this ocean was more powerful for him. Driven by the sea water, he swam quickly, but he caught up with Tan Yue's submarine in a flash.

He approached quietly and leaned outside the submarine to say hello to Tan Yue, when he saw Tan Yue looking in a mirror across the window.

The upper body of "Xiachi" has been taken off, revealing the tight lines hidden inside.

Bai Lixin: "..."

Dude, it's not that I'm thinking crooked, but can you be normal.

Probably sensing someone, Tan Yue's sharp edge suddenly looked over, and in the blink of an eye, the clothes had been put back on his body.

When he saw Bailishin's face through the transparent glass, he was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became awkward.

He stood there and sorted his clothes, then put the mirror away in his backpack.

After everything was cleaned up, he walked slowly to Bai Lixin, thought hard for two seconds and explained, "I'm just looking at the extent of the curse."

"Don't take me for a pervert."

Bai Lixin pursed his mouth, expressing disbelief.

Tan Yue panicked: "It's true! It's time, how could I still have the mind to do something else, I'm not your man."

Bai Lixin: "???"

How to easily offend two people in one sentence?

Talk about doing it.

The talk that seemed to be rigid before was getting darker and darker now, and the more he said it, the more wrong he was. He also realized this and simply kept his mouth shut.

After a long silence in the submarine, Tan Yue raised his head again and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Tan Yue wondered: "Strange, why are you outside? How did you become a mermaid?"
