By the time Huai Shi woke up, he didn't know how much time had passed.
He was so engrossed in his thoughts on the park bench that he fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up, he was still full of the drowsiness after a long nap and didn't want to move.
He seemed to have had a dream.
Huai Shi dreamed of Ai Qing, Fu Yi, Lili, Senior … and even Little Amber and everyone else …
In the end, he vaguely dreamed of Tongi. She also said that she wanted to give him benefits, but was flatly rejected by the heartless Huai Shi. She could only pull Huai Shi's sleeve and apologize with tears in her eyes.
It should have been a good dream. In the dream, Huai Shi was carefree, singing and eating hotpot happily with everyone, full of hope and future, and laughter.
But at the end of the dream, when everyone met, the atmosphere seemed to be abnormal.
He didn't know why.
Wasn't he very happy before?
But suddenly, he didn't feel happy.
Then, Huai Shi woke up in fright.
He vaguely remembered that something terrible had happened, but he couldn't remember.
Subconsciously, he touched his neck and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, his head was still there.
But his heart was cold …
What was with this strange feeling?
He scratched his head and couldn't figure it out.
Soon, he noticed that something was wrong with his body. He looked down and saw that he didn't know when the blanket had covered him. He was at a loss for a long time before he noticed the thing beside him.
It was a carefully wrapped lunch box. When he picked it up, he could feel a burst of warmth. He held it up and looked at the simple and elegant appearance, as well as the faint smell of perfume.
The figure of the girl in the gray skirt emerged in his memory.
Yuan Yuan was here.
After taking out his phone, Huai Shi found that it was already three o 'clock in the afternoon.
She probably didn't want to disturb Huai Shi's sleep after coming over, so she left the lunch box behind.
It's good to have a student.
In the gradually emerging hunger, Huai Shi opened the lunch box and dug into it. In the process, he picked up a stack of briefs under the lunch box and flipped through them.
The cabin in the woods was left here.
The report recorded in great detail all the events that had taken place on the iron crystal platform after Huai Shi had left, including the transfer and change of positions, as well as the analysis of the two meetings.
The focus was on recording the results of the negotiations and the relevant process, as well as the arrangements and duties of the students so that Huai Shi could grasp the specific situation.
As he watched, Huai Shi's desire to usurp the throne started to go awry again.
It could only be said that one is marked by the company one keeps.
It was all because of the cabin in the woods!
After finishing her meal, Huai Shi tossed the report aside and saw a few figures not far away.
A man in a black suit, sunglasses, and boots stood there like a shadow. A few Crows landed on the branches beside him, waving their wings excitedly and saying something to him. When the black shadow heard this, it would occasionally open its mouth and give a few suggestions, but no sound came out.
The members of the Legal Department didn't like to talk much to begin with. Occasionally, when they communicated with the Infernal Realm, they would use Origin Substances to express their intentions.
However, they seemed to be chatting quite happily with each other.
When the Crows heard this, they danced and jumped around in place, as if they had been imparted with some strange experience.
They had grown.
After sensing that Huai Shi had woken up, the Dark Spirit from the Legal Department nodded politely, then turned invisible and returned to Huai Shi's shadow.
The Crows flew over and landed next to him. After cawing twice, they raised their feet.
Around the foot of one of them was a tag wrapped in string.
On it was a message from the researchers in the research lab.
[Modification blueprints have been drafted. Please come to Area B4-01 for further discussion.]
After Huai Shi finished reading, his spirits were lifted. He folded the blanket on his body and stuffed the lunch box and the documents into his saddlebag. He couldn't continue to sleep because of this news.
After quickly washing his face, he rushed to the upper deck.
Before leaving, he had already talked to the researchers about the Ratmen's intentions. He hadn't expected them to produce the blueprints so quickly. It was practically god-like speed.
After passing through several layers of security, he smelled a suffocating smell of blood outside the laboratory door.
He pushed open the door and entered. All he saw was a workshop that looked like a slaughterhouse. There were all kinds of organs everywhere, as well as other messy tools. In the center of the room was an unconscious Ratman that had been completely dismembered.
It was still alive.
At least its heart was still beating.
It was probably the few lucky ones who had survived with serious injuries. In the spirit of recycling, Huai Shi had sent all of them here. It seemed that with the help of these samples, the research had made quite a bit of progress.
"This place looks quite familiar."
Huai Shi scratched his head. He couldn't remember where he had seen this scene before.
Seeing that Huai Shi didn't show any abnormalities, the researcher in charge of the laboratory was also quite surprised. In this place, the biological laboratory was mainly responsible for the dissection and research of the native hell creatures. Sometimes, the results of the experiments were even more unacceptable.
Even the members of the exploration team, who had experienced all kinds of dangers and trials, would feel uncomfortable when they saw the scene here. There were only a few people who could be as calm as Huai Shi.
"Mr. Huai Shi, please take a seat." He left the operating table, put down the saw in his hand, took off his gloves, and led Huai Shi to the rest area in the corner. After changing out of his mask, he asked, "Coffee or tea?"
"Anything. Let's have some water."
Huai Shi sat down with a cup of water. He looked around and sighed. In particular, the heads soaked in preservative attracted his attention. He could see that the knife was very carefully cut. There was no damage or destruction. The person who did it must be an expert.
"It's rare to see someone as calm as you." The middle-aged scholar sighed. "When I was studying in the flesh workshop, I've seen more tragic scenes than this. Why is there always a fuss?"
"Ahaha, maybe I'm used to it …"
Huai Shi scratched his head and asked, "How should I address you?"
"Marvel. Just call me Marvel." The scholar got up and swept the messy things on the table aside. "Let's get down to business. Take a look at this. This is the plan I carried out based on the samples of the rat-men."
As he moved, a few dissecting diagrams that were pressed under the table appeared in front of Huai Shi.
In the diagrams, the rat-men's size had expanded to almost twice their current size. Looking at the scale, they were even taller than Huai Shi by two heads. The internal organs and bones in their bodies had also changed drastically. They had almost become a different kind of creature.
The murderous aura was overwhelming. It was unbelievable.
"During the experiment, we found that the fusion of these rat-men's external organs had exceeded the average range. It's really incredible. Therefore, after discussing with other laboratories, we came up with a new set of transformation plans."
Marvel excitedly pointed at the diagrams and said, "Limited by their original physique, we decided to use auxiliary methods to increase their height. The inner alloy skeleton will be gradually stretched during the operation. Then, two lymphatic systems and ganglia will be added on the left and right sides of the neck and spine.
On the inner side of the spine, there will be a cerebellum that will be used to control and manage the movements of the lower body to avoid any delay.
The transformation of the Black Death Corps relies too much on the shamans in their tribe. We decided to use the organs of other creatures to transform them. "First, the muscles. We have already obtained permission from the Ivory Tower. The Athens branch sent us a new artificial muscle synthesis law and structure diagram. The efficiency of the muscles is more than ten times higher than the original rat-men's muscles. Together with the increased body, the strength of their bench press can reach more than two tons.
"The two new lung lobes came from the samples of the Scaled Lion preserved in the laboratory. Apart from increasing the blood and oxygen exchange function, we added two extra secretory glands that can be used as tranquilizers or stimulants according to the needs. "As for the eyes department, we used the advanced model released by the academy last year. We added infrared vision, elemental vision, and advanced dynamic vision, allowing them to detect danger on the battlefield immediately.
"The auxiliary internal skeletal system can transmit nerve signals through the spinal cord without any obstruction, allowing them to learn all kinds of standard tactical movements in a short period of time. It also strengthens their aiming and throwing abilities. If they have enough time, they can even learn the American Army Boxing … Of course, that is meaningless in the Abyss.
"The next important thing is the skin transformation. Now, our artificial skin can perfectly adapt to the dangers of strong acid and alkali. The pre-made impact-resistant shell under the skin and the outer layer of hair can perfectly withstand bullets designed for close-range shooting.
"The most important thing is the alchemy array in the skull. We can preset a curse resistance array here, greatly increasing their resistance to negative effects …"
The more he spoke, the more excited Marvel became.
Originally, the transformation of the Ratman army had only been something that Huai Shi had casually mentioned. However, after the negotiations, and under the coordination of the chief of staff, the transformation had greatly increased the priority, becoming the most important thing at the moment.
After all, they were currently the most convenient cannon fodder on hand. How could they be used so easily? They had to increase their own abilities and value.
Thus, with the combined efforts of everyone, the Ratman Transformation Plan version 4.0 appeared in front of Huai Shi overnight.
When the biologists and alchemists in the Iron Crystal Constellation who were so bored that they were about to grow hair saw this project, their eyes turned green with excitement.
They added a little bit more, and in the end, almost all of the Ratman's body parts had been forcibly modified, strengthening them to the limit of what was theoretically possible.
No matter how weak a Ratman was, after being modified, he could become a steel warrior that could charge through a rain of bullets.
Even Huai Shi was stunned when he saw this.
Looking at the mess of things on the paper, he couldn't tell that it was a Ratman at all.
He lowered his head and looked at the blueprint over and over again.
After a long time, Huai Shi scratched his head.
"I have to say, this is indeed a little unexpected …"
He scratched his head, but he couldn't help but frown. "But I still feel like it's a little lacking."
After thinking for a long time, he raised his head and said, "It's lacking something."
Marvel was stunned.
