The Iron Ship Island of the Great Voyage

"Why are my eyes so blurry..."

Only then did Raymond realize that his vision in his left eye was a little blurry.

He tried closing his right eye, and instantly lost his vision.

The cornea of ​​the left eye seemed to be covered with a layer of white gauze, and I could only vaguely see the shadow of the light source, like a severe cataract, and I could hardly see anything.

He remembered that his left eye seemed to be the place where Meyer punched him hard, and it was also the place that was severely burned by the corrosive acid.

At this time,

The guy in the white coat seemed to notice Raymond's movements, so he opened his mouth to explain.

"Your eye tissue has been corroded and burned by acid. This damage is irreversible, so even your vampire's super recovery ability cannot heal it. If you need it, I can help you replace your eyeballs..."

He did not look back, as if the germs under the microscope attracted his attention more.

Change the eyeballs? Why does it sound a little weird?

Could it be that this guy is a perverted doctor doing some kind of human transplant?

If one is blind, then the other is blind first. Teacher, he was once blind in both eyes.

Raymond's face looked a little strange. He didn't dare to let a stranger use a knife on his face rashly.

"Did you save me?"

Raymond looked around calmly.

Although this laboratory is very simple, it looks a bit like an abandoned sewer, surrounded by rusty pipes and iron walls.

Although the environment is very poor, the experimental instruments in this room all look very high-end.

No, it’s not how it looks, it’s inherently high-end!

Raymond knows most of the instruments here.

Micro-controlled mechanical forceps set 3, eighth-generation high-precision cell detector, Hex-Mog alloy surgical frame, Wagg active cell tracker, magic crystal virus culture dish...

"How...how can the equipment here be so high-end!" Raymond was slightly shocked. The large equipment in front of him were all top-notch medical experimental equipment on the market. There were also several types of equipment that would not be available even after ten years of playing games.

Advanced high-tech instruments popularized for civilian use.

Each of these devices is priceless, and they represent the most cutting-edge level of medical technology in the world.

Seeing this, he was really confused.

Could it be that I am in some secret laboratory of the World Government now?

At this time, the doctor in the white coat finally put down what he was doing.

He turned to look at Raymond and explained: "Originally, I wanted to fish out a few corpses from the sea for experiments, but I didn't expect to fish out a living person. I saw that you were not infected by the virus, so I thought you had antibodies. You were excited.

After a... test, it was found that you are actually of the blood clan, no wonder you are immune to the virus..."

After speaking, he pursed his lips.

It's like the expression of someone who is used to seeing mountains of gold and silver, but then sees an earthen bowl.

Raymond saw the guy's face clearly, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat, "Damn it, it's actually this guy?! Is it possible that I'm no longer in the Black Sea? How long have I been in a coma?"

Obviously, he knew this doctor.

The guy in front of me is very short, only 1.4 meters at most. But his head is huge. It looks like a child with a big pumpkin on his head, which is very uncoordinated. His messy hair is not taken care of, and his hairstyle looks a bit like a love.

Under Einstein's white coat, his whole body was covered with white bandages like a mummy, with a pair of large aqua blue eyes hidden behind thick glasses.

This little guy who looks harmless to humans and animals is actually a very famous evil NPC in the game.

The world government's S-class wanted criminal with a bounty of 315.6 million, an extremely dangerous person, [Plague Doctor] Lulu Y. Friznile.

(Note: S indicates the danger level;)

The crime announced by the World Government is that this guy is an unscrupulous doctor who likes to conduct research on horrific viruses. He once caused the virus to leak due to a crazy living experiment accident, causing the death of millions of people in several countries in the Endless Sea.

!

The note on the reward order is that this guy is jealous and dangerous. Once discovered, he must be killed directly, otherwise he will be in danger of being infected with a deadly virus!

Raymond had only seen his wanted poster, but he didn't expect to see a real person here.

In the game, it is said that this guy always likes to find countries in remote sea areas to conduct dangerous experiments...

He suddenly thought,

This...couldn't the virus that Philip received be caused by this guy?!

Raymond swallowed his saliva and looked around at the transparent glass vessels with some rotting zombies soaked in them. His heart was pounding.

"Is it possible that I was used as a specimen for live experiments by this guy?"

However, he couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw that he was not tied up or restricted.

At this time, he looked at the system prompts and roughly understood what happened.

It turns out that he had only been in a coma for five days, so he should still be in the Black Sea.

But why did this guy appear in the Black Sea?

In the blink of an eye, Lulu seemed to have forgotten about Raymond again. He actually took another slice sample and began to concentrate on his virus culture experiment again.

Seeing that the big-headed guy didn't care about himself at all, Raymond's face twitched, what's going on?

Indulge in lust?

After waiting for a long time,

Neither of them spoke.

Only then did Raymond confirm that the guy didn't have any conspiracy, but that he really had no interest in talking to him.

After thinking for a while, he took the initiative and asked: "Um...what happened recently? Why am I in District 24?"

He didn't dare to reveal the little man's identity directly, for fear that he would get angry and kill him.

There are no S-class wanted criminals who are not extremely vicious and dangerous thugs.

In previous games, the big bosses on the S list were all terrifying existences that players could avoid. They were cruel, murderous, and would not kill anyone for any reason at all...

But,

The unexpected aloofness did not appear.

Lulu said in a very calm tone: "Five days ago, the Tianlan Navy occupied Philip Territory and the fleet evacuated. Then I fished you out of the sea unconscious, and that's it."

This is not enough to say the least.

Raymond rolled his eyes, not daring to express his dissatisfaction, and asked tentatively: "Then...can I leave here?"

He didn't expect that this guy had no intention of keeping him at all.

"Can!"

Lulu is still immersed in studying the slices, as if I don't have time to talk to you,

After thinking about it, he warned: "However, I advise you not to go out now. The 24th District is the city most severely infected by the virus. It is night again, and the streets outside are full of wandering zombies.

Not only the humanoid infected, but also the massive infected monsters that invaded the city last time... Your extraordinary level is so low, even though you won't be infected, you will definitely die if you go out."

"ah?"

Warcraft is also infected?

Raymond was stunned and thought of a strange scene.

The sea beasts are attacking the city. A group of stupid sea beasts rush to the ship island, catch a group of zombies and start biting them. Then the zombies scream excitedly and bite back... The style of the painting is not too harmonious.

Lulu added: "Don't expect to be able to go out. Five days ago, the Tianlan fleet evacuated. Now the nine urban areas from 16th to 24th have been completely abandoned and left to fend for themselves. Don't try to find a ship to go out to sea. There are people outside.

The warships left behind by the Tianlan Navy will destroy any possibility of the virus spreading. The Tianlan Royal Family and the World Government Navy have issued orders that anyone who escapes from this ship island will be shot to death!"

"This...doesn't it mean that you are trapped to death?"

Raymond thought to himself that it was terrible. If he couldn't get out of the sea, wouldn't it be like a prison? Anna was still waiting for him to rescue her, and Irene was still waiting for him to find her... What's the point of being stuck here now?

"There are probably not many people alive in District 24 now. If you want to be lively, you can row to Blocks 16 and 17, where survivors gather. There are people from the revolutionary army maintaining order in those two blocks.

It's relatively safe, and I guess they will try to find ways to leave. If you want to leave here, you can only go to them. However, it shouldn't be possible in a short time."

Revolutionary Army?

Raymond immediately thought of the former "suited thug" Chapman. Is it possible that that guy is still in Philip's territory? Probably only this huge underground organization can break the blockade between the World Government and the Tianlan Fleet.

Since this guy had no hostility towards him, Raymond felt relieved and was not in a hurry to leave.

He thought for a while and asked: "Well... can I take the liberty to ask, are you studying viruses? Is it possible to be cured if you are infected with this virus?"

Lulu was like a good student who answered all questions without hiding anything, and said: "This is the 'Ackermann virus', and there is no cure at this stage. I have been researching for many years, but I have not found a suitable solution."

Antibodies to the virus..."

"Um...what is this 'Ackermann virus'? Why did Philip understand the sudden outbreak of this epidemic?"

Raymond guessed that the epidemic caused by Philip was because this guy was conducting human experiments.

But he didn't dare to speak directly for fear of angering him.

This time, Lulu didn't answer. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you really want to know?"

When Raymond heard this, he thought this sounded like the opening line that triggers the plot in a game. Is there any other story in it?

He nodded, "Yeah!"

Maybe it’s too boring to study alone, maybe it’s been too long since I’ve been in contact with a living person, and I want to find someone to talk to.

Lulu didn't intend to hide it, and said directly: "The world government has many cutting-edge secret research... Among them, the 'Ackerman Project' is a very important research currently underway! If successful, it may bring benefits to the world

Big changes..."

Obviously, this plan did not succeed.

Raymond complained in his heart, otherwise the virus would not have spread.

This is a regular routine opening.

"People from the World Government discovered a corpse in a dangerous place in the Endless Sea. They obtained many very magical things from the corpse that had been preserved for tens of thousands of years, most of which were mysteries that could not be explained by the current scientific level.

There are... and the 'Ackerman' virus is one of them."

"This virus is extremely contagious and can be transmitted through body fluids... The infected person's body will rot in a short period of time. The virus will erase the infected person's consciousness, but the body will not die...

"

"On the contrary, the infected person will gain strength and agility several times greater than before birth due to this virus... Moreover, as the virus evolves in the organism, the increase in this ability will continue to increase..."

"Putting aside its side effects, the effectiveness of this virus is amazing and has unlimited potential."

"The world government established the 'Ackerman Project' team to make this virus controllable. After several years of research by a large team of the world's top scientists, they finally achieved a breakthrough. They succeeded with this virus

Created 'Ackerman's Potion'... This is a super potion that can directly improve the body's adaptability to any potion."

Hearing this, Raymond felt incredible and said in surprise: "Can it improve the fit of any magical medicine in the human body?"

The most important thing that hinders the advancement of extraordinary beings is the coordination of magic potions. If this problem is solved, wouldn't it be possible to mass-produce high-level extraordinary beings?

"Yes!"

Lulu nodded and said: "However, although this potion has been successfully developed, it still has a big drawback, that is, it cannot solve the problem of viral infection!"

Raymond knew that the turning point of the story had arrived.

But at this time, Lulu did not continue speaking. Instead, she turned to stare at Raymond and asked: "Your eyes tell me that you should know my identity. But you should not be sent by the world government to hunt me down...

So, can you tell me how you know your identity?"

"Wanted Order."

Raymond didn't hide anything and said directly: "I saw a wanted poster for you by chance."

"oh."

Lulu had the expression of a child who had been wronged, "Then you also think I'm a bad person?"

Bad guy?

This tone...

Listening to the tone, Raymond knew that this guy was obviously not very old. Although he was a bit scary because of his intelligence, he seemed to have a kind nature and was not like the evil doctor on the wanted poster who did all kinds of evil.

Thinking about the urinary nature of the world government, those on the wanted poster are not necessarily evil.

Raymond said directly: "I think you are a good person."

[Ding! Lulu·Y·Friznile’s favorability towards you is 3.】

Next we chatted a few more words,

Only then did Raymond know the origin of this Lulu.

It turns out this guy is really young!

He was born in the "Hippocratic Medical Capital", which is as famous as "Hextech City". This guy is one of those legendary "prodigies". He completed his doctorate in medicine when he was eight years old, and he has a lot of experience in virus research.

He has unparalleled talents in various subjects. At the age of fifteen, he was secretly absorbed by the World Government and became the deputy executor of the "Ackerman Project", directly leading the entire research plan.

In total, his actual age is a little younger than Raymond.

Comparing people with others will lead to death, but comparing goods with goods should be thrown away!

Listening to this big-headed little guy beeping, the more Raymond listened, the more he felt ashamed. He graduated with a doctorate at the age of eight, and he has just graduated from high school?

The frustration caused by this strong reaction made him feel as if he was mentally retarded...

Raymond suddenly realized that this guy who was described as a super evil villain by the world government in the game was actually just a very simple little guy. Although he had a high IQ, he was devoted to academic research and had no evil intentions at all.

"What happened next? Why did you become an S-class wanted criminal again?"

"Later... there was a traitor in our research team. Seeing that the project was about to bear fruit, he stole all the research materials and the semi-finished potions... and what happened next

, you should have seen it on the wanted poster. That guy probably wanted to quickly find antibodies to the virus, so he secretly spread the virus in several countries..."

"So that's what happened!" When Raymond heard this, he understood instantly.

Relying on small-scale experimental studies one after another, and trying to develop antibodies all depend on luck, and we still don’t know how long it will take for the virus to spread in the human country. Dozens or millions of people could be infected at any time, maybe once

We can find antibodies to the virus and completely solve this problem.

He looked at the pitiful look of this little guy and immediately understood: "Then you became the 'scapegoat' for this incident?"

"This major accident caused a large number of casualties, and the top leaders of the world government need an explanation. Because the top leader has to continue to preside over the research project, I, the deputy, can only bear the blame..."

When Lulu said this, she suddenly burst into tears and said aggrievedly: "My father and mother knew the World Government's elimination plan in advance and secretly sent me out... The top management was furious and secretly erased my father and mother...

.”

"..."

Raymond looked at the hateful look in Lulu's eyes, and suddenly felt that this little guy was actually quite pitiful. He had been immersed in scientific research, and was used by the people of the World Government like a machine. When it was no longer available, he just threw it away.

He thought for a moment, changed the subject, and asked: "Then why did this virus spread to the Black Sea? Did the traitor escape here?"
