Beijing.
Dark Fortress Base.
Wuyue had been thinking about Huang Boren's words and whether she should apply for a transfer out of the Dark Fortress.
She knew that even though she had experience working in the dark, compared to a place like the Dark Fortress … Her past experience was too childish.
After all, no matter what she did in the past, she would always have a reasonable reason to convince herself. It was enough to let her maintain a clear understanding of things and understand that everything she did was for the sake of her hometown, for the sake of the land that she and her compatriots relied on to survive.
But it was different in the Dark Fortress …
Even though it was also for the sake of the land beneath her feet, the people and matters she had to face every day were also her compatriots … as well as the matters that happened on this land.
It was difficult for Wuyue to remain clear-headed in the face of everything like she did when she was overseas. She could easily convince herself with righteous reasons. On the contrary … She would often think about good and evil in the face of certain matters and would even consider if her actions were too inhumane.
Sometimes …
Wuyue didn't even know if she was right or wrong because she knew how pitiful some of the targets were. But at the same time, she also understood how careful the Dark Fortress was when they made the final decision to 'deal with' them. She also agreed that this kind of cruel treatment … was indeed a last resort.
She couldn't judge whether she was right or wrong and couldn't determine if she was an accomplice because logically speaking, if she didn't do so … it would definitely bring more trouble to the land beneath her feet.
So …
Even though Wuyue witnessed the leaders of the Dark Fortress cruelly deciding to get rid of an extremely pitiful Mutant who was only a child … She couldn't bring herself to hate them after witnessing the disappointment and regret on their faces.
Everyone here knew that such a dirty thing had to be done. Even if it was something that would make any normal person feel sad … it had to be done!
All the workers in the Dark Fortress were also working in such a cruel environment. The leaders who were qualified to deal with such matters … had to bear a stronger sense of guilt than ordinary workers!
Even if Wuyue sympathized with the children, she couldn't bring herself to hate the Dark Fortress. Instead, she felt that some things were an unbearable torment for the people in this place!
The hatred she had for the Dark Fortress because of Wu Xiangyou had been gradually diminishing after joining the Dark Fortress. Not long ago, she was barely able to rationally let go of it.
After all, in a place like the Hidden Fortress, Wu Xiangyou's situation was too common. Something like this would happen almost every once in a while. However, it was not that the staff of the Hidden Fortress did not do anything. It was just that the children who had been guided in the past had been completely defeated by their past experiences.
They weren't willing to accept the goodwill of the staff, nor were they willing to accept this world. In the end … as the situation worsened, they became hopeless.
Among them …
There were even many staff members who took care of them, but because they were too kind, they were attacked by the children. There were also many staff members who were seriously injured or even killed …
But even so …
However, the Dark Fortress was still unwilling to give up on any of the children who still had a chance to change for the better. They continued to take care of the children as carefully as before …
As such …
How could Wuyue still harbor that kind of hatred for the staff of the Dark Fortress from the beginning to the end …
…
Inside the base.
Somewhere in an isolated research room.
Wuyue sat in the workshop behind the isolation window, looking at Ji Anzhi who was still struggling tirelessly. She couldn't help but stretch and yawn in a daze.
"Tired? Then go take a rest first … "A researcher in a white coat who was also on duty couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Wuyue's expression.
"Don't worry …"
"The one inside is tied up so tightly. Even without your protection … I won't be in any danger here."
Hearing that.
Wuyue laid on the table and turned to look at the researcher. "It's okay to sleep less. But this guy … doesn't seem tired at all. It's been so long and he's still jumping up and down."
"Uncle Song, you should continue your research. If you need to do something later, it won't be good if he accidentally breaks free. After all, although a researcher like you is also a Mutant, relatively speaking, you don't have the ability to protect yourself."
"With my psychic ability watching from the side, if you really need to do something, it'll be easier to do it … isn't it?"
"Although that's the case …" Uncle Song put down the document in his hand and turned his chair to face Wuyue. He reached out and patted his big belly.
"But this research can't be finished in a day or two. Today, I'm only responsible for recording his reaction to the drug. When he can't hold on any longer … I won't be stingy with the problem of time."
"Still no progress?" Wuyue asked with glistening eyes.
"I have a good understanding of his condition, but speaking of progress …" Uncle Song shook his head and said, "I don't think I can believe that the human virus can't be infected.
"From the bottom of my heart, I don't think the virus on this thing is really suitable for ordinary people like us. The so-called immortal body … If we have to pay the price of turning into a monster, I'm afraid it's meaningless to the leaders."
Wuyue couldn't help but be skeptical. "But the condition of those omnipotent demons …"
"Tsk!" When Uncle Song heard this, he seemed to recall something unpleasant. He suddenly interrupted her with a flustered and exasperated voice.
"The leaders at the top don't know anything at all. Maybe … this is just a possibility. Those omnipotent demons might not have relied on this thing to obtain the same physical strength and ability."
"That Yinggou might have other methods. Now it seems very possible … But Chairman Huang just doesn't want to let go of this thing. He even said something about deducting our bonus if we don't have any results. He's like a modern Huang Shiren!"
"Exploitation! This must be exploitation! When I have the chance … I will definitely report him to Chairman Zhao! "
"…" Wuyue was speechless.
"Let … Let's continue to work hard. I remember that Uncle Song's daughter is about to enter university. Girls … need more pocket money than boys, right?"
"…" Uncle Song seemed to have been hit by a sore spot. His imposing manner instantly weakened.
"It's a pity that the little girl didn't inherit the talents of the Mutants. Otherwise, she could have come to the Dark Fortress with me … How nice would that be?"
"… The Dark Fortress isn't a good place to work." Although Wuyue knew that researchers didn't know much about certain things, she still shook her head and walked to the door of the research room.
"Forget it, the night is still young … I'd better go out and get some fresh air. Otherwise, I might not be able to open my eyes later."
"Oh, if you really can't do it, go take a rest. It's not a big deal for me to take care of things here." Uncle Song roughly understood Wuyue's intention. It was apparent that she didn't know much … But it didn't mean that he didn't know some things about the Dark Fortress.
However.
Wuyue closed the door of the research room calmly. Then, an extremely strong doubt flashed in her eyes. She immediately followed the guidance in her heart and walked to the other side of the corridor …
