Zeus took a deep look at Xiao Bing and said with some emotion, "I may not be able to catch up with you for the rest of my life."
Xiao Bing said with a smile, "That's not like you to say. In my impression, haven't you always regarded me as your goal to surpass? Have you given up so soon? "
Zeus looked at Xiao Bing deeply and sighed, "Because now when I look at you, I only feel that I have become more distant."
Yamamoto Butterfly walked to Xiao Bing's side obediently. Xiao Bing said, "I feel that what we are looking for should be here soon, and these people just now should be the puppets guarding the treasure. Let's go in and have a look."
The others were also looking forward to it, but they all followed behind, waiting for Xiao Bing to take the lead. They had experienced too much since they went up the mountain and saw too many masters die here. Now from the foot of the mountain to the Bamboo Sound City, more than half of them had died. So now they would rather follow behind since there was a tall man in front.
And the current situation was very delicate. Xiao Bing and Zeus were obviously close, while the others had obviously gathered together. That was to say, except for Xiao Bing and Zeus, the others had now begun to group up. But even so, they did not have the courage to snatch the food from Xiao Bing's mouth, because the strength that Xiao Bing had just shown was too terrifying. They could only wait for an opportunity. If there was a chance, such as if there was a danger that seriously injured Xiao Bing, they would take the opportunity to fight for the unearthed treasure.
Of course, whether there were any treasures now and what the treasures were, they still had to wait and see.
These people walked behind Xiao Bing. After going up the mountain, first there were wolves, then there were strange birds, then there were spiders, and the last obstacle was the many top human masters who were controlled like walking corpses. Now after passing all the obstacles, the road ahead finally became smooth.
Even if Xiao Bing was in front, they all walked carefully. Only Zeus was bolder. He walked side by side with Xiao Bing and chatted with him from time to time.
Xiao Bing and Zeus were old acquaintances, and they appreciated each other. Even though Zeus's strength was already very far from his, Xiao Bing still appreciated Zeus's unyielding attitude in martial arts.
Xiao Bing, Zeus, and Yamamoto Butterfly were walking in front of them when they suddenly stopped. They saw a huge house piled up with tall rocks, and outside the cave sat a white-haired old man. The old man's clothes were very ragged, and his white hair was scattered. He wore a pair of glasses, but no one knew whether it was myopia or presbyopia.
The old man sat cross-legged on the ground. When he saw Xiao Bing and the others, his eyes lit up, and he could not help but exclaim, "Good, finally, there are so many people here. of them of enough."
Xiao Bing stopped. The old man seemed to be an ordinary old man, but he gave Xiao Bing a very strange and somewhat frightening feeling.
The old man spoke in the language of R Country. The clothes he wore were very old, as if they were from the last century. It seemed to be some kind of work uniform, which seemed to be worn by old professors in the laboratory. He also seemed to be old enough to be in his eighties or nineties, or even older.
The old man's smile on his face was very strange, and it seemed that he was a little excited.
Xiao Bing stopped and asked, "Who are you?"
The old man said calmly, "The owner of Bamboo Sound City."
"The owner of Bamboo Sound City?" Xiao Bing asked, "Are those people outside controlled by you?"
The old man laughed and said, "Since you have guessed it, why ask again?"
Xiao Bing clenched his fists and said coldly, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you immediately?"
The old man smiled and said, "I'm a bad old man. I don't have the strength to truss a chicken. But if you think that you can kill me so easily, then you are wrong."
While they were talking, two Japanese samurai came out of the house. The two samurai looked middle-aged. They were like the walking dead, but they were more powerful. They had reached the realm of Breaking The Void.
In addition to Xiao Bing and Zeus, another strong man at the level of Breaking The Void said at this time, "Who are these two people? Why have I never heard of them? "
The man who spoke was the third master besides Xiao Bing and Zeus. His strength was at the early stage of Breaking The Void.
The old man looked at this man and asked, "We don't know you, young man."
The young man was a little arrogant and said, "I come from the trendy country. My name is Nangong Qing."
"Oh, it turns out to be a trendy person." The old man nodded and said, "It's a very backward country."
There was a flash of anger in Nangong Qing's eyes. Their trendy country was indeed very backward, but the people of their country were very dignified and proud. But he did not dare to act rashly, because the strength of the two people next to the old man was not weaker than his. If he faced them alone, he would definitely die.
The old man said, "Young man, you don't have to be angry. So many years have passed, and I haven't left here for decades. I don't know what the outside world is like, and I don't know what your country is like now. But because some people have broken in recently, I will ask all the people I want to know what I want to know first. "
Xiao Bing said in surprise, "You haven't left here for decades?"
The old man looked into the distance, as if he was reminiscing. He could not help but sigh with emotion, "Strictly speaking, I have been here since World War II and have never left."
This time, not only Xiao Bing was surprised, but the others were also surprised. World War II? That was more than 94 years ago. It had been more than 70 years since then, and he had actually lived here for more than 70 years?
The old man said with emotion, "It's not easy for some outsiders to come here recently. I'm not in a hurry to kill you, so why don't you listen to my story? I think you will also be interested to know."
These people were indeed interested. The most important thing was that they wanted to know what this old man was doing here. Before they knew the details, they did not dare to do anything. After all, too many people had died.
The old man said, "What's my name … Let me think carefully … Oh, yes, my name is Fukuda Hideo. In 1942, I was 30 years old. I accompanied my teacher and some colleagues in the research lab to this mountain. His Majesty the Prime Minister personally ordered us to come here. He wanted us to come here to do a mysterious research."
Xiao Bing said with some confusion, "Didn't they say that people who come here can never leave? Why did they let you come here to do a research project? "
Fukuda Hideo sighed and said, "Because this research must be carried out in secret. No one can know about it, not even our own people. If the research is successful, once it is used on the battlefield, World War II will end quickly, and the day when Japan dominates the whole Asia will be just around the corner. Although it is said that no one can come in here, and once you come in, you will never be able to get out again. However, at that time, Japan had the world's top formation master. According to his research, the reason why this mountain can only be entered and not exited is because there is a natural formation at the foot of the mountain. So no matter who wants to go out, they will get lost and never be able to leave here. "
"But this formation master had a way to get us out of here. Plus, no one dared to come in, so this Bamboo Sound City became the best place for the project."
Fukuda Hideo was silent for a moment, as if he was still recalling those things. Even his cloudy eyes revealed hatred. "First, they brought some captives from other countries and asked them to build a laboratory on this mountain. The laboratory is not far behind. You can see it after walking for a few hundred meters. But now the laboratory is empty, because I am the only living person in the entire Bamboo Sound City."
"After the laboratory was built, my master and I, as well as the researchers in the Royal Laboratory, were all brought to this mountain and entered the laboratory. Then they told us that once the experiment was successful, we could leave this place. If the experiment was still unsuccessful in five years, the experiment would be abandoned, and they would let the Formation Master take us away."
"But they lied to me, to my master, and to those scientists who have devoted their entire lives to the medical cause."
Xiao Bing asked, "Didn't they come to pick you up again?"
"No." Fukuda Hideo sneered. His voice was filled with despair and hatred. "They abandoned us. We reap what we sow. But I hate them. I hate the entire country."
Xiao Bing asked, "What are you researching?"
Fukuda Hideo looked at Xiao Bing and asked, "Young man, what did you experience when you first came here?"
Xiao Bing thought for a moment and said, "Spiders, white wolves, strange birds, and those walking dead masters … Could it be …?"
"Yes." Fukuda Hideo said, "Our research is to make the genes of animals more powerful, and eventually, we can even control these powerful and cruel animals. Think about it, there are countless spiders in any city. If we can turn these spiders into killing tools and put them into the battlefield, wouldn't it be equivalent to an invisible increase in the number of fearless troops?"
There was madness in Fukuda Hideo's eyes. He continued, "And these are just spiders. What if it's ants?"
There might be countless ants on any random piece of land. If ants could really mutate, and all the ants could listen to people's orders to eat people, wouldn't they be able to create a monster-level army of tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, or even billions of people?
Thinking of this, everyone's expression changed. Even Xiao Bing felt his hair standing on end!
