From the outside, it looked like an abandoned building, its dark, circular building materials minimizing its presence in the garden.
Inside, however, the lights were bright, and all the equipment emitted a cold glow. Even now, the machines were working in an orderly fashion, with rows of conveyor belts transporting what looked like green liquid…
The dazzling light made it hard to adjust to the interior upon entering.
"Hurry, we need to finish producing the second batch of serum today," a voice called out from a small compartment inside.
Startled, Luo Xiao Le rolled to the side, disappearing from the person's line of sight.
She quietly crept from another direction, towards where the person had just emerged.
Indeed, it was an office-like space inside.
Beside it was a small, dark room that looked extremely gloomy, with no lights on.
Using the faint light filtering from the front, Luo Xiao Le saw the words "Archives" written on it.
Her heart felt as if it had been struck by something.
With a swipe of the staff card she had taken, a faint "beep" sounded, and Luo Xiao Le slipped into the room.
Acting on instinct, she went to the row of cabinets where the staff files were kept.
She wanted to verify a guess she had.
Sure enough, on the row of cabinets marked with the year 19 years ago, she pulled out a dusty file.
Luo Xiao Le opened it with trembling hands. When the names and photos of her parents appeared on the middle page…
Her eyes instantly welled up with tears, unable to prevent it.
For so long, she had replayed her parents' faces in her mind countless times, but each time it was just a vague shadow.
Until now, the images in her mind suddenly became clear, as if she could see the strands of their hair…
She took out the crescent moon white ring her parents had left her, her voice choked with emotion, "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad. It's only now that I have the ability to uncover the truth of that year for you…
Rest assured, if Qin Li is truly the one who harmed you, no matter what his status, I will personally send him to hell!" She clutched the ring to her heart, squeezing it tightly.
The facts once again proved that her parents were not mere employees, but core members of this massive laboratory back then!
She continued to flip through other documents and discovered that other researchers from the same batch as her parents had no further records.
It was likely that that batch of researchers had all perished…
Then why were they silenced in such a tragic manner?
Or, to be more precise, what had they discovered or researched back then that made Qin Li go to such lengths to silence them?
Thinking about what had happened over the past few months, Luo Xiao Le's pupils widened in horror. An answer was almost within reach…
Luo Xiao Le suddenly rushed to another cabinet storing research materials.
It was filled with dense research results, all related to enhancing human physical resilience, reducing human craving for ordinary food, and increasing physical strength…
Luo Xiao Le tucked the materials into her embrace, her eyes gradually filling with rage…
An overly formidable appearance, treating humans as food, sharp teeth, and exceeding physical strength…
All these characteristics were so similar to zombies…
If this human catastrophe was indeed caused by Qin Li, then he would bear an immeasurable sin, heavier than Mount Tai!
Luo Xiao Le took several deep breaths to calm the roar within her heart.
This information was extremely valuable evidence. She walked along the shelves again and arrived at the newest storage cabinet.
It clearly recorded the method for producing the serum that could stimulate ordinary humans into becoming "Zombie Kings"…
Luo Xiao Le's fists instantly clenched again!
Not only did they create Zombie Kings, but they did so by forcefully inducing such mindless monsters from ordinary humans! And this transformation was irreversible!
What a wicked deed!
She had no storage space, so she could only tuck these two precious documents into her embrace and made to walk out.
"Beep" A work card was swiped at the door.
Luo Xiao Le darted away and hid behind the large door.
"Crack" The lights in the archives instantly came on.
"Sigh…" Someone sighed and walked directly to the newest research cabinet, rummaging through it for a long time.
"Huh? Where did the latest research data go?"
He didn't notice a very slender hand gradually appearing from the shadows nearby.
That hand, like a bean sprout, was holding a large gun, its muzzle slowly pressing against his forehead.
"Damn it…" The person, unaware of anything, cursed and sat down on the ground with extreme dejection.
"Whoever wants this rotten job can have it! Manufacturing monsters here every day, may lightning strike them! Damn it, if my mother and them weren't in Qin Li's hands, I would have quit long ago!"
"I, Li Yuan Fang, swear to the heavens, as long as I can bring my mother back safely, I promise to get as far away from here as possible and will never get involved in such terrifying matters again! I… I'd rather eat wild vegetables every day than live such a life of constant fear! /
"Spare me!!" He was somewhat panicked. How could an outsider possibly get in here?
Outside were dense patrols, and it was impossible to get in here without a work card!
The "Rampage Loli Jinx," however, suddenly smiled, lowered her gun, and stepped on it, completely unconcerned if it would misfire.
Her voice was clear and lively, "I heard what you said, I'll help you."
Her eyes were very sincere, "From now on, you won't need to eat wild vegetables. The condition is, you tell me all your current research results and help me when I need you."
"Don't worry, I can basically guarantee your safety." She stood on the large gun, and for some reason, her words now carried great conviction.
The man swallowed hard, his hand slowly reaching for a hidden alarm button nearby.
