Is this world of yours a serious place?

"Alaya-vijnana is on standby, please issue the corresponding instructions."

Alaya Consciousness' calm voice came from Chen Xiuming's mobile phone, but it did not alarm the soldiers patrolling outside the database.

"Is there any information related to weapons in the database?"

Chen Xiuming’s goal was very clear, which was to obtain detailed information on various weapons.

As long as he knows the detailed manufacturing process of the weapon, he can use the Honkai energy to shape it perfectly, and even incorporate the power of the Saint to greatly enhance the power of the weapon.

"Yes. Alaya-vijnana has already screened out the weapon information that meets your requirements and downloaded it to your technology beacon."

Although Shencheng Pharmaceutical is a pharmaceutical company, its database contains a lot of weapons-related information, no matter how detailed it is.

As long as Shencheng Pharmaceutical is willing, with this information, it can quickly build a factory assembly line and quickly produce a large number of weapons.

"Shencheng Medicine is indeed hiding a deep secret..."

Rita thought.

Kiana thought for a moment and said, "Alaya-vijnana, could you please help me find information about the recent collapse of Sky City?"

"We have selected the files that meet the requirements - the Honkai incidents were all deliberately guided by Shencheng Medicine to test artificial intervention to activate and reorganize the hidden stigmata fragments in human genes."

"It was indeed done by Shencheng Pharmaceutical."

Kiana had guessed this long ago, so she wasn't surprised or shocked.

Then she asked, "Can I find the specific experimental data?"

"There is no relevant record in the database, but relevant data can be found in the main control system deep underground."

Alaya-vijnana's tone was as plain as ever, but it revealed a huge amount of information.

Rita frowned slightly and immediately called up the three-dimensional map of the Shencheng Pharmaceutical Industrial Zone.

Judging from the three-dimensional map, there is no area similar to a basement or underground research institute in the Shencheng Pharmaceutical Industrial Zone.

"Did you hide it on purpose?"

Rita whispered softly.

Just as she was about to find a way to get deep underground, she saw that the Alaya-vijnana had already done it, and listed in detail the method to get deep underground, as well as the things that needed to be known.

"Let's go - finish the business here as soon as possible, then go home and rest."

Chen Xiuming unplugged the data plug and turned to leave the database.

Rather than slowly reading through the weapons information downloaded from the Shencheng Medical Database, the most urgent task now is to explore the secrets hidden by Shencheng Medical.

Combined with the content just mentioned by Alaya Consciousness, it is not difficult to guess the secret hidden by Shencheng Medicine. It is nothing more than human experiments related to artificially inducing the awakening of the holy marks.

Chen Xiuming already knew this part of the plot, so he was not surprised at all, and Kiana and Rita had also guessed this matter, but they did not want to make a hasty judgment before witnessing the truth with their own eyes.

……

Following the guidance of the Alaya Consciousness, Chen Xiuming and others easily found the hidden elevator in the Shencheng Pharmaceutical Industrial Zone.

The elevator descended rapidly, and a strong feeling of weightlessness swept over me.

After a moment, the feeling of weightlessness disappeared, and Chen Xiuming, Kiana and Rita had entered a hall of astonishing size.

The cultivation devices are arranged in rows, containing the experimental subjects that Kiana and Rita are very familiar with - the death soldiers.

These assassins vary in height, size and age.

Some have Honkai beast tissue implanted in their bodies, and their bodies are covered with a white silicon-based shell; some have had parts of their bodies removed and replaced with electronic prostheses.

This place is like a very curious human body museum, showing uninvited visitors to what extent the human body can be transformed.

Kiana and Rita looked around at the neatly arranged culture devices, their expressions were surprisingly similar, both had complex looks of wanting to say something but hesitating.

Although I had anticipated this scene, I still felt frightened after seeing it with my own eyes.

Chen Xiuming reached out and gently patted Kiana and Rita on the shoulders, silently soothing their complicated feelings, and then took the lead and walked towards the center of the hall.

In the center of the hall, there is a very conspicuous main control device.

Compared to the Shencheng Medical Database, this master control device does not store much data, all of which are data on human experiments related to the artificial induction of stigmata awakening.

From these data, we can get a glimpse of the ambitions of Shencheng Medicine. It is not even satisfied with sporadic human experiments and has begun to try to induce a large number of humans to awaken the stigmata at the same time.

The recent frequent outbreaks of Honkai events in Sky City are the initial attempts of Shencheng Pharmaceutical.

Once sufficient experimental data is collected, Shencheng Pharmaceutical will begin to expand the scope of the Honkai incident. It will no longer be limited to a small block, but will instead trigger Honkai incidents in urban areas, or even directly trigger Honkai incidents that affect the entire Sky City.

In the eyes of the top management of Shencheng Medicine, humans who are unable to awaken the stigmata are worthless. Only those who have awakened the stigmata and those who can be artificially induced to awaken the stigmata are worth living.

For this reason, exchanging tens of thousands of humans for the survival of just a few people is very worthwhile in the eyes of the top management of Shencheng Pharmaceutical.

"They actually want to use the entire city's human population for experiments... Is Shencheng Medicine crazy?"

Rita frowned and repeatedly looked through the experimental data stored in the main control device.

Kiana couldn't understand the experimental data, but she could tell from the amount of data that many innocent people had become consumables in human experiments.

"Chen Xiuming, what do you think?" Kiana asked Chen Xiuming in a low voice.

"Stand and watch."

Chen Xiuming answered casually, looking at the huge cultivation device behind the main control device.

A young-looking dead man was floating in it, his legs had been removed and replaced with four mechanical prosthetic legs that looked like spider legs.

PS. First update! Second update will be later.

Volume 290: . Kiana: You don’t think I’m stupid, do you?

Kiana followed Chen Xiuming's line of sight and also saw the "mechanical death soldiers" floating in the cultivation device.

“Combining the dead soldiers with the machines is a very bold direction.”

Kiana commented calmly, then looked at the other training devices.

Although the dead soldiers in the cultivation device were very quiet, she could feel that they were alive and not dead.

The liquid in the culture device seems to suppress the activity of the dead soldiers, keeping them in a dormant state.

Kiana didn't know if they had a chance to recover, but she didn't think this was a suitable place to stay for long.

"Rita..."

Just as Kiana was about to remind Rita, she found that the huge screen at the end of the hall suddenly lit up, showing an unclear figure.

"You are truly worthy of being called the Lord of Heaven. You have the audacity to step into other people's territory and peek into their secrets without permission."

"And there's the uninvited Herrscher kid. This isn't a good place to play hide-and-seek."

"And the man I haven't seen before... He looks good, but he's meaningless."

Calm voices came from the speakers placed throughout the hall, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Rita raised the giant scythe, while Kiana drew out a Sub-Earth Spear out of thin air and looked around vigilantly.

It seemed that he felt that Rita and Kiana's actions were very funny, and when the voice sounded again, there was a little more smile in it.

"Since you are so interested in this place, why don't you stay here forever and let me entertain you well."

"but……"

"If you want to get something, you have to pay a price, right?"

"To exchange your lives for everything you see here, isn't that a high price to pay?"

Although the last sentence was a rhetorical question to Chen Xiuming and others, it was actually a statement.

As the words fell, the liquid in all the culture devices decreased rapidly, causing the dead soldiers floating inside to gradually wake up.

The sounds of the culture devices breaking apart came one after another, echoing endlessly in the closed hall, as if forming a depressing and desperate symphony.

However, Chen Xiuming, Kiana and Rita did not care about these resurrected warriors.

Chen Xiuming really has no pressure, after all, he has the support of Kiana the End and Janna.

If he really encountered a situation that even they could not solve, then there was no need for Chen Xiuming to struggle, he could just lie down and wait to die.

Kiana now has mastered some of the Herrscher's powers of the Void, and can escape at any time if she cannot win.

As for Rita, she has full confidence in her own abilities.

"Are these assassins your confidence?"

Kiana pulled out the pistol from her waist and fired a series of shots. Each bullet would accurately hit the assassin's head and kill him directly.

Perhaps because they have been immersed in the cultivation device for too long, the strength of these dead soldiers is very weak, and it takes a certain amount of time for them to absorb the Honkai energy to restore to their peak state.

Facing Kiana's questioning, the beautiful figure suddenly chuckled, and it was unclear whether she was sneering or mocking.

Then, a voice with a hint of laughter echoed in the hall.

"of course not."

"I have prepared a small gift for you. I wonder if the elite "Immortal Blade" and the Herrscher of the Void can continue to display their strength in this desperate situation."

Before he finished speaking, several cylinders that looked like smoke bombs rolled to the feet of Chen Xiuming and others.

The next moment, before these cylinders could release the liquid stored inside them, golden holes flashed and sent these cylinders into the imaginary space.

Seeing this scene, the figure on the screen, with an interested and confident look on her face, suddenly froze, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.

Kiana frowned in confusion, as if she couldn't believe it, and asked tentatively: "You, you don't think I would be stupid enough to wait until the things you threw take effect?"

"..."

The beautiful figure didn't speak.

Although they couldn't see her expression clearly, Chen Xiuming and Rita could feel that she was indeed thinking so, and her expression suddenly became very interesting.

Kiana realized this belatedly, and after hesitating for a few seconds, she took out a cylinder that looked like a smoke bomb from the imaginary space, threw it on the ground, and pretended nothing had happened.

Considering that the other party was so serious and even took the initiative to introduce herself, she thought it would be better to cooperate with the performance a little.

"..."

Kiana's actions seemed to have caused "real damage", making it almost impossible for the beautiful figure to hold back her emotions, and even her breathing became faster.

laugh--!

The cylinder that looked like a smoke bomb worked normally, releasing thick light yellow smoke.

Rita frowned slightly and immediately put on a gas mask.

Chen Xiuming used Honkai energy to shape a gas mask, and at the same time did not forget to prepare a gas mask for Kiana.

Seeing them surrounded by thick smoke, the figure's rapid breathing calmed down and her emotions also calmed down, even becoming a little more sarcastic.

"You may not know, that is not tear gas, but HSN-B46 serum - Ms. Rita, you should know what that is."

Before she finished speaking, and before Rita could answer, the beautiful figure asked and answered herself.

"That is a serum that can quickly inactivate and disperse the Houkai energy in living organisms. It is also a version specially formulated for Valkyries."

"No need to breathe, just skin contact will allow it to enter the circulatory system, making the Valkyrie as defenseless as an ordinary person."

"Using weapons made by Destiny to fight against Destiny's Valkyrie, what an interesting irony, isn't it?"

Sarcastic words echoed in the hall.

The assassins were afraid of the thick smoke formed by the "HSN-B46 serum" and dared not approach Chen Xiuming and others, so they could only surround them outside the smoke.

At the command given by the beautiful figure, the cultivation device in the center of the hall suddenly shattered, and the mechanical soldiers that looked like spiders fell heavily to the ground, making a dull sound.

The fusion with the machine seemed to have changed the characteristics of the dead soldier, allowing him to ignore the thick smoke formed by the "HSN-B46 serum" and attack Chen Xiuming and others fiercely.

Just as that beautiful figure said, skin contact with thick smoke will cause the Honkai energy in the body to become inactivated and dissipate. Even Kiana, who possesses the Herrscher core, is no exception, but her condition is not as serious as Rita's.

However, the mechanical warrior that the beautiful figure had placed high hopes on had just rushed into the area covered by thick smoke when he was firmly bound in place by golden chains condensed out of thin air.

The Honkai energy in Chen Xiuming's body was also affected by the "HSN-B46 serum", rapidly inactivating and dissipating uncontrollably, but...

He can borrow Honkai energy from Kiana the End.

"She's so talkative..."

Kiana scratched her cheek, not knowing how to comment on the beautiful figure on the huge screen.

Although it was very impolite, she felt that the figure had a strong sense of déjà vu——
