Arknights, the Angel of Justice is waiting for level 16

At that time, she had secretly vowed that if Rhine's life was really hopeless, she would either choose to leave or destroy it completely.

But now, everything is irreversible.

"Hemer, I'm sorry, I can't protect anything."

"Sareya, you are different from them and you are incompatible."

Hemer had already vented her emotions and returned to her usual indifference. She did not tell Saria that she was leaving, but just hoped that she would have a better life in the future.

Tuk-tuk-tuk~!

At this moment, there was a knock on the laboratory door, and then a researcher came in and reported that Parvez asked Hemer to come over.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Hemer waved her hand to signal the researcher to go first, and then she began to organize the materials on the table and prepare to take them with her.

According to Hemer's idea, it would be better for Saria to leave here now, not to care about what experiments are going on underground, and not to care about what Ferdinand wants to do.

Unfortunately, Saria was very stubborn and Hemer couldn't convince her, so he could only take Saria with him...

Under Kristen's matchmaking, Ferdinand and Parvis have joined forces. The two highest-ranking department directors of Rhine Life are now working together in the First Laboratory, all for the sake of the success of the 'Star Remains Project'.

When Hemer led Saria into the spacious laboratory, most of the researchers who had been watching had left. The two leading men had already changed into surgical gowns and seemed eager to start.

"Teacher, I'm here."

Although Hemer hated Parvez in his heart, he still maintained respect on the surface. The middle-aged man who carried out the "Flame Demon Plan" seemed quite excited at this time.

"Hemer, you will assist me in this operation. Cheer up."

"Ok."

Hemer put down the documents in his hand and put on his surgical gown. Saria stood aside, and Ferdinand and Parvez seemed not to see her and did not even say hello.

"..."

Saria didn't care about these trivial matters. She looked at Ji Luo who was unconscious and once again remembered his crying on TV.

——Why, even though everyone heard his voice, his end was still so tragic?

Saria did not ask this question, and no one gave her a specific answer. The Vaifan girl stood there abruptly, and everyone seemed to ignore her and there was no communication.

Saria watched as Ji Luo was placed on the operating table, his body turned downward, revealing his muscular back.

Then, Hemer began to disinfect Ji Luo's entire back, especially the intersection of the cervical vertebrae and the spine, and disinfected it three times.

Ferdinand watched Hemer's movements with a satisfied smile. He picked up the scalpel and cut from the end of Jiluo's neck to the upper side of the spine...

"Well……"

Saria had killed many people and seen countless corpses with horrible deaths, but when she looked at Ji Luo who had become a test subject, she suddenly felt nauseous.

Finally unable to bear the atmosphere in the laboratory, Saria turned and ran out. She completely ignored the strange looks from the researchers, ran straight into the elevator, and quickly returned to the ground.

Saria returned to the office with a pale face. She lay on the sofa for a long time before finally easing her discomfort.

"I really can't change anything."

Saria picked up her phone and searched Ji Luo's name for some unknown reason, and the most popular result at that time was a video.

"My name is Ji Luo, I am a living experiment, these are my last words"

When Saria saw the name, her heart trembled violently. She clicked on the video with trembling hands and turned the volume up to the maximum.

"Everyone, I think you should know me. My name is Ji Luo. I was captured by Rhine Life as an experimental subject, but I barely escaped not long ago."

"I exposed the atrocities of human experiments at Rhine Life Sciences and received a lot of attention and support. I would like to sincerely thank everyone for their kindness and justice, which gave me strength."

"The only thing that makes me regretful is that I can't thank you in person. Because when you see this video, I may have been beheaded, or I may be in some secret place, turned into a dead pig like an experimental consumable."

In the picture, Ji Luo's calmness is touching. He seems to have known his fate for a long time and is really prepared to die.

"Don't be surprised, I recorded this video in advance. It's not revenge. We still have to stick to science. After all, isn't the reason why Rhine Life is so cruel and mad for their self-righteous science?"

Ji Luo no longer had the passion he had before. He repeated his experience in a plain and brief manner without too much embellishment, but the misery was revealed between the lines.

"Everyone, the reason why I dare to show up and expose Rhine Life is because I have long anticipated my fate. Facing such a behemoth, the power of an individual is too small. I will die in the end, and it will be a miserable death."

As Saria listened to Ji Luo's narration, she inexplicably thought of his appearance just now. Ji Luo was indeed right. Rhine Life would not let him go, and he would not be able to survive.

However, Saria did not expect that Ji Luo's prediction would be so accurate. He almost predicted that Rhine Life would take action again, risking the world's disapproval, and capture him back to the laboratory to continue the previous experiment.

When he said this, Ji Luo still had a smile on his face. Then he took out his camera and took a picture of himself. It was a black and white posthumous photo.

"I will eventually die at the hands of Rhine Life, maybe in the lab, or maybe in the flowerbed where they bury the bodies. I don't care whether I live or die, I just hope everyone understands that it's me today, it could be you tomorrow, and it could be everyone the day after tomorrow! Everyone, please be careful."

Ji Luo's final message was filled with the decisiveness of a soldier. He bowed to the camera and the video ended there.

Saria scrolled down the comments and found that everyone was insulting Rhine Life and forwarding a piece of news.

"Well-known journalist Lekani was shot dead in a restaurant, and his companion, Ji Luo, is missing."

"..."

It was hard for Saria to imagine what kind of mood Ji Luo was in when he prepared these backup plans. How desperate and angry he must have been at that time.

Saria read the news silently. There were two videos linked at the bottom, one was Ji Luo's last words, and the other was Lekani's last words.

The Vaifan girl clicked in and watched it again. Ji Luo's words sounded touching, while Lekani's photos looked a bit playful.

Obviously, at that time, the famous journalist did not expect that he would die so quickly and so cleanly.

More and more people left messages under the two videos, expressing their admiration for Ji Luo and insulting Rhine Life.

For some reason, Saria returned to Ji Luo's video and left a message saying "I'm sorry" below.

"..."

Saria raised her arms and covered her eyes. She thought about everything that had happened and felt indescribable bitterness in her heart.

It turns out that she has always been so stupid.

Ding ding ding~!

Just as Saria was immersed in her memories, her cell phone suddenly rang. Kristen had already seen the video left by Ji Luo, and it was obvious that she was going to hold another emergency meeting.

Last time, Saria was too busy with work to attend the emergency meeting and just sent a deputy to sit in.

This time, Saria didn't even think of sending anyone to participate. She told Kristen that she was tired, and Kristen replied that she should take good care of herself and get enough rest.

"Heh~ It's been a while since she spoke to me in this tone."

Saria had been in the game before, so she didn't understand anything. But now, she gradually saw the truth and finally decided to let go of her obsession.

Saria changed her lying position and began to watch Ji Luo's other videos. Most of them were scenes of him being interviewed, and the conversations were almost always about Rhine Life.

At that time - he was really working very hard and very eager.

"Did his surgery...go well?"

Saria was inexplicably worried about Ji Luo. If the implantation of the "remains of the evil star" was unsuccessful, he would die today.

But if the implantation is successful, then Ji Luo will be on the road to being corroded into a monster, and will be forever doomed like an infected person...

At this time, Hemer, who was helping with the experiment, had the same mood as Saria.

Normally, as a participant in the operation, Hemer should know Ji Luo's condition.

However, the special nature of Jiluo completely invalidated their previous experience. Not to mention the assistant Hemer, even Ferdinand, the main surgeon, didn't know whether Jiluo could survive the sequelae.

This is because when other people implant the "Remains of the Star of Disaster", they have to inject a large number of chemicals at the same time, including twenty kinds of stabilizers alone.

But for Ji Luo, the problem didn't seem to be a problem at all. After the "Remains of the Star of Misfortune" was placed in his body, he was as quiet as a little mouse seeing a cat.

"The implant is almost complete. How is the patient's health?"

"Subject G103, everything is normal."

Hemer looked at the pile of instruments in front of him and found it a little hard to believe that this was a person implanted with the remains of the evil star.

Ji Luo... who is he? Or is he really a human? Why is the evil star eroding him without any signs of spreading?

Although Hemer had these doubts in her mind, she didn't really say them out loud. After all, she was becoming less and less talkative in front of Parvis and tried to avoid him when she had nothing to do.

As for Ferdinand and Parvez, they were very happy. After all, the operation was successful and all they had to do next was wait and see the results.

"Place Ji Luo in the newly built laboratory. He must be guarded 24 hours a day, and the number of people present at the same time must not be less than four!"

Ferdinand is now the most powerful person in Rhine Life besides General Christian. No one dares to question his orders, they will just execute them immediately.

As Parvez's apprentice and his most trusted confidant, Hemer was temporarily left here to monitor Ji Luo's situation.

Afterwards, the two directors, exhausted both physically and mentally, left the laboratory together. Hemer found a reason to temporarily drive out the other researchers, leaving herself alone in the room.

However, what Homer did not expect was that Dorothy would suddenly appear here and ruin her original plan.

The director of the Originium Arts Application Department was previously the person closest to Jiluo. It was rumored that Ferdinand once suspected her, but because there was no evidence, the matter was left unresolved.

"Director Dorothy, welcome."

"Yes. Researcher Hemer, I trust your ability."

Dorothy walked up to the unconscious Ji Luo and looked at his pale face with a sad look on her face.

“Now, how does he look to you?

"..."

Hemer wanted to say bluntly that Ji Luo seemed to have resisted the erosion, but this was only temporary. Now, he would not live long, just like a normal person with mineralogy.

The "remains of the evil star" connected to Ji Luo's spine and cervical vertebrae at the same time, and began to erode along these two paths, which would erase his humanity and wisdom.

"Ji Luo's blood seems to be able to stop the erosion of the 'Remains of the Evil Star', but excessive blood loss can also be fatal."

"Is it possible...for him to wake up?"

Dorothy had been in contact with Ji Luo for so many days, and she really couldn't bear to see him die of weakness like this.

"No one can say for sure."

Hemer looked up at Ji Luo's data, and the final answer was a bit sad.

"Maybe tomorrow, maybe forever."

"..."

Dorothy had heard this phrase before, which was used by doctors to describe vegetative patients. But when Hemer said this, it was clear that Jiluo's condition was not optimistic.

"Thank you for telling me this."

"You're welcome."

Hemer pushed his glasses and quietly became an observer. Dorothy stayed with Jiluo for a while, then turned around and left the laboratory.

The Zarak girl did not stay outside and went straight back to the office. She found Ji Luo's previous physical examination records, compared them with the values ​​she had just seen, and studied Ji Luo's condition.

What is certain is that although Ji Luo has not woken up, his body has been relying on instinct to fight against the erosion of the "Remains of the Evil Star".

His blood volume has been decreasing, and various indicators that maintain life are constantly decreasing at tiny values.

If left unchecked, at this rate, Jiluo would die in three days.

"What...what should I do?"

Chapter 173: Brought by the Remains of the Scourge

Everything that Rhine Life did to Ji Luo was not unexpected to him. Everything was a drama, a process...

Ji Luo personally joined the game in order to completely wipe out Rhine's life. After this incident, Ji Luo believed that all research on the remains of the evil star would become more cautious and taboo.

“The evolution in reality is not unexpected, but the story in consciousness is surprising.”

Ji Luo stood in the realm of light and flame, and the surroundings were filled with light as usual. The holy flame of stars flowed like a river here, the ground was pure white jade, and the angel statue in the distance pointed its sword to the sky.

Everything seemed unchanged, but at the end of Ji Luo's sight, he saw the deep purple color slowly pouring over him.

It is like a beautiful painting that is gradually stained by ink. The pure white color is gradually dyed black, and the world begins to sink into the abyss.

This is Ji Luo's world of consciousness, and the abnormality that appears here actually indicates that the erosion of the evil star core on him is turning to his soul...

In order to infiltrate Rhine Life, Ji Luo sealed all his blood and power.

Now, the "Remains of the Evil Star" has been implanted in his body. How could the Evil Star Core, which has been sealed all this time, not take the opportunity to cause chaos?

Of course, Ji Luo had anticipated all this and he was ready for it.
