Ch 89: The Research Institute hidden within the Earth’s core, the YIEQ Earth Core Reorganization Research Institute
“Buzz, buzz!”
“The YIEQ Inner Earth Reconstruction Research Institute, located in the lower Inner Earth World.”
“Doctor Liang Qi, there are a total of 121 qualified individuals this time, what do you think?”
“Hmm?”
Liang Qi was wearing a White Coat and White Gloves; behind him was a young man who was very cautious and whose appearance was not visible.
Not far from Liang Qi were several SSS-level Mecha, each bearing a strange Symbol. Nearby were some strange Stones.
The Stones were nearly 50 meters tall, covered in cracks, resembling Eggs.
“The items are at the Supply Depot. Go get them yourselves, then tally them.”
Liang Qi narrowed his eyes, a cruel glint flashing in his gaze. The next second, one of the Mecha moved, directly crushing someone to death.
Perhaps they never knew why, despite the enormous profit, no one else would take this job—because there was no return.
“Excellent. I hope this time we can create the perfect one.”
The Young Man seemed undisturbed, his sharp gaze fixed on Liang Qi.
“How’s that Plan coming along?”
Liang Qi, his eyes a shade of yellow, glanced at him and nodded politely.
“Almost done. The Experimental Type can be put into use.”
Liang Qi led the Young Man to the side; a transparent Barrier instantly opened. From the outside, it looked like a wall, but upon entering, there was a vast space.
Before them were several Red Giants, over 50 meters tall, standing silently. Beside some of the Red Giants were creatures resembling Mechanical Monsters.
Then, one Red Giant’s eyes lit up. It leaped aside, and a blue beam of light shot into the distance.
Instantly, the entire Inner Earth World shook. A crater over 100 meters wide appeared where the beam struck; after a while, the crater slowly filled in.
“Beep, Master, Level 11 energy reaction.”
“Good.”
The Young Man nodded, seemingly very satisfied with the experiment, exceeding their expectations, even in the lowest scenario.
“Of course, this is just a Prototype; there’s more to come.”
A smile played on Liang Qi’s lips, but a wicked thought formed in his mind.
Meanwhile, the Children who had been brought in began to be sorted into categories, such as the 3-6 year-old Infant Area.
Yu Guagua slowly opened their eyes in a room; it was an extremely luxurious small room, filled with various Dolls.
These Dolls were Yu Guagua’s favorite things; it seemed the other party had made ample preparations.
Yu Guagua lay in the Glass Room, watching everything outside. It was like an amusement park, even a Paradise for children.
Every Child who came here stopped crying, curiously examining their surroundings.
Then, the transparent Barriers of these Glass Rooms opened, and a group of Children rushed out, engrossed in eating and playing.
Li Xiaoyi also came out, along with many of the City’s Gifted Children. At first, they, like Li Xiaoyi, resisted, but soon lost themselves in the fun.
Li Xiaoyi cautiously examined everything. They realized these people didn’t seem to want their lives; they seemed to be conducting some kind of experiment.
There were no people here, but surveillance Devices were everywhere, constantly monitoring the Children’s every move. There were no names, only Serial Numbers.
“Good, that Xing, Serial Number 2, deserves special attention.”
Several staff members watched everything on the video; text appeared on the screen in front of them. This was the Central Artificial Intelligence, “Lizi.”
“Doctors, attention, the Teenage Area is rioting again.”
“Just suppress them, won’t you?”
“Can’t suppress them; they’re operating Monsters.”
“What!?”
In a large open area of the Laboratory, a huge Mechanical Monster was wreaking havoc.
“You…bullies…you all deserve to die!”
“What’s going on?”
Doctor Shen approached the Teenage Area, examining the rampaging Mechanical Monster from afar. They pressed a button, but nothing happened.
“Beep, Doctor Shen, the opponent seems to have regained consciousness; someone is sabotaging from the shadows.”
“Sabotaging?”
“Get the Control Disk; you restrain its movements first.”
A fierce look flashed in Doctor Shen’s eyes. They gave the order to apprehend it, not to kill it; after all, it was their cherished creation.
“Not good, Doctor Shen, the Infant Area and Elementary Area are also in riot; a boy summoned a Red Giant.”
“Damn it, what’s going on?”
Doctor Shen’s temples throbbed; their eyes narrowed, as they thought of something. Aside from internal sabotage, they couldn’t understand why this was happening.
“No good, to the Central Core Location!”
“Damn it, damn it, don’t do anything foolish!”
Doctor Shen boarded an Aircraft and sped through the Laboratory, hoping they wouldn’t do anything reckless.
Meanwhile, a woman in a sky-blue outfit cautiously approached the Central Core Location.
“Doctor Ling, you can’t go in here.”
Several Androids suddenly reached out to stop Ling. Ling looked up at them, her expression commanding.
Then, several Androids suddenly collapsed. Ling immediately rushed into the Central Core Location, but a Young Man suddenly appeared inside the Core. He turned, smiled, and spoke in a flat, even tone.
“This isn’t a place you should be, Doctor Ling.”
Before the Young Man finished speaking, Ling fainted. Just as the Young Man stepped forward to kill Doctor Ling, Doctor Shen arrived.
“Stop!”
Doctor Shen stood before the Young Man, who looked up at Doctor Shen with an expressionless gaze.
“If you’re going to kill her, kill me first!”
Liang Qi then appeared behind the Young Man, his expression displeased, clearly angry.
“Shen, control your people. I don’t want this to happen again.”
Liang Qi said expressionlessly. If Ling committed such an act again, Liang Qi would absolutely kill her first.
“I know. She lost her child; she’s unstable. I’ll keep her confined.”
Doctor Shen sighed, then helped Doctor Ling up and quickly left in an Aircraft.
“Why didn’t you kill them?”
“They’re still useful at this Stage of research. The other side still needs him; they can’t be killed.”
“They’ll be a threat eventually.”
The Young Man turned and suddenly disappeared. Upon closer inspection, there was a Sun Symbol on their hand.
Simultaneously, in the Infant Area, Yu Guagua stared at the Red Giant in front of them, speechless.
The next second, Mecha burst through the door, holding disk-like objects. A buzzing sound emanated from them; the Red Giant slowly calmed down, then transformed back into a child, sleeping peacefully on the ground.
