Chapter 133
Chapter 133
Rhea's mood suddenly fell into the ice cave.
Andre Witte's words not only did not relax her, but aggravated her stress response.This sentence has fully demonstrated that Andri is not on her side.
He's with Essex!
Rhea pressed her chest hard, which originally had elements of acting, but now she really needs to calm her beating heart.
She held her breath, tried her best to stir her brain, and said silently in her heart: "Qin! Qin, are you still there?"
Maybe it was just a second—but at times like this, even the shortest wait is torture.Fortunately, a second later, a soft female voice came into her mind.
'It's okay Rhea, we're here. '
It was Jean Gray's voice, and Rhea perked up.
Now that she finally discovered the benefits of "spiritual dialogue", Rhea said silently: 'Have you seen the machine that deals with mutants?That's dangerous, you remember to inform other teammates to be careful. '
'I see.That's a terrible thing, I have a bad feeling...'
Rhea asked again: "Qin, how long can you last in this state?" '
'what do you want to do?Rhea, there are too many people here, and my mind control is not that good yet.Don't do impulsive things. Jean Gray was puzzled: "When the others come down, we have to find a way to get rid of that machine..."
Rhea set her sights on Andre Vetter to attract his attention.
While saying in my heart: 'Okay, I'll stall for time.Now I'm going in to find the answer, can Malloy give it to you? '
'...' The thoughts from Qin's side became a little confused.Letting Rhea, an ordinary, incompetent person, take risks—it goes against Jean's ideas, but she's not the kind of person who is good at making decisions.
In this case, they can only listen to Rhea.
'Look at the construction of that machine - they are not finished, let Scott destroy them before they are discovered! ' Rhea remembered Scott's abilities.
There must be some reason for him to wear special shades.
After giving the order, Rhea put down the hand that was touching her heart. She took a deep breath and walked towards Andre Werther step by step.
She spoke: "Well, I guess I don't have a choice now either."
"Very well, that's it." Jedle Essex immediately followed her.
All his attention was on Rhea, and he didn't care about her mutant agent at all. Since Andri said that he wanted to keep Malloy, he also
He waved his hand and asked his subordinates to take him down.
Although Malloy struggled hard, he could only watch Rhea being led into the laboratory by those two bastards.
"Riya!!"
"Ah."
The peculiarly constructed metal door closed instantly without leaving a single gap, and also blocked Malloy's shouts.
When Rhea walked in, she felt as if she had stepped into a different dimension.
Her eyes darkened for a moment, and then quickly brightened again.After a while, she realized that it was the lighting that had been raised several levels, which caused the momentary dizziness.
Leave the passage of silver metal and enter here.
Everything is white.
As far as the eye can see, there are densely packed instruments and equipment, and various numbers that Rhea cannot understand are displayed on the screen.On the edge of the wall, rows of huge Petri dishes were displayed, and the green liquid filled made Rhea unable to see clearly what was inside.
But looking at the size, each one is enough to hold a human body.
Rhea's emotions became tense little by little. She followed Andre Witter through the large glass vessels, and then saw a large bed lying horizontally behind the transparent isolation cover.
A figure lay there, full of tubes.
"Who is he?"
Rhea asked immediately.
Andri's voice was cold: "You have eyes, so you can see for yourself." He directly lifted the isolation curtain and walked in first.
There was the old man Jedr behind him blocking the way back, so Rhea could only grit her teeth and followed.
Seeing the face of the man on the bed, Rhea's breath caught.After all, she has done so many investigations in private, but she still never thought that she would meet the Lord in this situation——
"Adrian Vetter, he is the Pharaoh." Rhea couldn't help exclaiming.Neither Andry nor Jedle Essex have denied it.
Rhea took a closer look, and her heart was almost filled with accumulated questions.Is this Andre Witte's "father"?Or is it his "clone body"?
Although the face was covered by an oxygen mask, the combination of facial features and the distribution of bone phases still showed a strong sense of Werther.
Rhea stared at the wrinkles creeping up her skin, and the faded blond hair, and soon had more questions.It's all gone to this point, and she doesn't need to be entangled in covering it up.
Rhea asked: "Why is this? He is not so old."
At the end of the Cold War, the pharaoh should not have been more than 40 years old, and now it has only been eight years, and it is difficult for Rhea to put the weak and old man on the bed
Patients associate with those reported upper elites.
Andrei summed it up succinctly: "Some crisis, some radiation. Some disease, some cost."
When he stared at the body that was closely related to him, his eyes were still extremely cold, maybe when he looked at Rhea, they were a little warmer.
"Nuclear weapons?" Rhea asked.
With limited information, Rhea can only barely think of a situation similar to a nuclear explosion in the Cold War, which made the Pharaoh become like this.
Andre Witte was silent.
Jedl sighed: "Human beings are so fragile. As long as you are not mutated, alien, or magical, you will eventually become like this."
His wrinkled face was also tensed, revealing deep unwillingness.
"But it shouldn't be like this!" Jedr once said excitedly, "We are the ones with top intelligence and great creation, we are the masters of this planet, and we should have the power to control the fate of aging and death !"
"Ha! You want to live longer."
Rhea's expression changed.She already understood what Jadel wanted to do.
When a man has everything, he wishes to have it all forever.Jedle Essex is definitely not the first person to attempt immortality, nor will he be the last.
She didn't even want to make any comments, but asked coldly: "Then what does this have to do with me?"
Delay aging and achieve longevity—why not do research on mutants, of course Essex has already done so.
Rhea didn't agree with their approach, she was just anxious.What role does she play in this game?
"No, you don't understand, you are very important. Rhea, you are the only one who survived all the life gene sequences I created. It's just that we all thought that the conception project failed, otherwise I wouldn't let you go mother..."
Those cold words stabbed Rhea, and she questioned loudly: "You can't create all the genes out of thin air! Just tell me, whose clone am I?"
Jedle Essex shook his head: "You still don't understand. Of course you are not a clone, you are our Eve, you will be the source!"
Rhea pointed at Andre Witter: "Stop playing word games with me! Isn't he a young clone of the Pharaoh?"
There was a sharp sarcasm in her expression.
"There's something wrong with his chromosomes, and there's something wrong with my chromosomes
Question - our bodies are not normal at all, and we won't last long, right? "
Jedr became angry as if being provoked.
"No! That's not the same at all. You, you are a small accident caused by the unstable external environment - Werther found you first, but he didn't tell me.
Right, that is it!That's why you have a problem, you can't even hold on to the initial stage of that reagent..." Jedr started talking to himself after he finished speaking.
Not knowing what triggered it, Jedr suddenly gritted his teeth, his body trembling along with the drooping muscles of his face.
Andre Werther stood by the bed, his expression indifferent.
Jedl even yelled at him: "You bloody, selfish bastard! Just because the clone is deposited with me, don't you worry about it.
Using Rhea to pick me up was totally unnecessary - you know it's killing us both! "
Jedl sneered: "Yes, I can't afford it. You have made so many cloned substitutes for yourself, but I don't have one. But your sickly brain can't afford it, Werther!"
It turned out to be the case.
These two people both wanted to save their own lives, but Essex and Witt Biotechnology went in two different directions. Even if they cooperated with each other, they secretly made other attempts.
When Jedr was experimenting with his "life gene sequence" project, Old Werther was constantly using the cloned young flesh to hang himself.
When he yelled, Andre Werther was silent with the old Werther who closed his eyes on the bed.
Suddenly Rhea felt weird.
She found Andre Witte unusually quiet.And she knew very well that Andri didn't have such a good temper.With this guy's level of arrogance, it's impossible to stand Jeddle.
more importantly--
Is he really a pharaoh?
From the beginning to the present, the personality existing in this body has actually been that old Werther?
Jedel's curse made Rhea couldn't help doubting her previous guess.She thought that Andre was Andre.
But Rhea watched their conversation with her own eyes, and the attitude of the old man Jedr towards Andri was completely level.There was no way he could be talking to old Werther's son like that.
Horror in another sense spread to Rhea's heart.
Rhea's breathing became rapid, and while she was thinking about Jean Gray trying to contact the female mind reader, she pulled their attention back.
She said: "I have only one problem left now, now that my chromosomes have problems, what is the problem?
what to do "
Andri raised his head at this time, "Didn't you already guess the answer, you like girls who think they are smart."
"If the body is aging faster and can no longer support it, then replace it with a healthier one." His gaze swept across the huge petri dishes, and his ice blue eyes were full of chills.
Rhea shuddered.
She was actually afraid, she was afraid of seeing "Rhea Nolen" one after another in those containers.
But in the next moment, Jedr said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, those are 'Vert', all worthless copies, not worth mentioning!
And you are a miracle that cannot be reproduced!Since you survived, you are successful! "
Rhea looked at him incredulously.
"My telomere was found to be shortened, but you said I was successful? If you were really successful, you should have created a long-lived and eternally young life, not me!"
Rhea couldn't hold back her doubts, she asked urgently: "I'm 19 years old, fully sexually mature - how do you stabilize my DNA?"
"No! This is not a problem, Rhea, don't you understand? You are a 'new' human, so how can you use the public's standards to judge your genes?"
Jedr's face was twisted for a while, the wrinkles on his face were deeply embedded, and gaps were formed.
He touched his face, and actually broke off a small piece of skin, revealing the deep red flesh and blood tissue inside.Shocked by this scene, Rhea's heart stopped suddenly.
What did the old fellow do to himself?
She stepped back a few steps.
If he had to choose between these two, Rhea subconsciously approached Andre Witte.
Andri did not resist her approach.
Rhea moved her body calmly.
She said: "What is this? No superpowers, no magic, all this is just to create a long-lived, eternal new life?"
But even the so-called "immortality", Rhea has a question mark.
Jedl stared at her eagerly: "You just haven't learned it yet...but it's okay, let me, the 'father', teach you. Compared to you, those mutants are nothing at all!"
He didn't want to admit his failure at all, because only Rhea could prove that his experiment was successful.
Rhea found it ironic.
She deliberately used that lie to remind him: "Really? Then don't forget, I can't even survive your bottle of reagents. "
Jedr picked up the anesthetic needle: "That's enough, I don't want to argue with you. You
What is the gene of the human body, you will know after injecting it into the human body and experimenting. "
While her heart was chilling, Rhea even found it funny.
She looked at the three or two of them mockingly, "You want to be God, so who is 'Adam'?"
Jedr struggled for a while, then looked at Andri jealously, "Let him combine with you first... Let's wait and see how long this clone will last..."
Rhea looked at Andri suddenly.There was not the slightest surprise in that indifferent and handsome face.
So she knew that this was also one of the plans they had conceived long ago.
She was almost outraged.
Rhea suddenly understood why Andre had contacted her early in the morning, and even made Rhea misunderstand his intention for a while-because he also thought about doing it!
He thought about marrying her—
It's just that he gave up halfway.
Perhaps because of excessive anger, Rhea didn't even feel afraid.
She sneered: "Since cloning is so good, why don't you do it, Mr. Essex? You are old, and your body doesn't look very healthy."
Without waiting for Jeder to answer, Rhea gave an answer: "Because there is a huge risk in this.
No one can guarantee whether the clone will produce its own thoughts, let alone determine whether the personality in the brain is the subject or the clone
——It even needs to store the clones in other places to prevent the clones from counterattacking. "
Rhea called out in her heart: 'Qin! '
'Scott has found a weak point in the machines, and he has a way to destroy them! ' Rhea got the response.
Rhea felt that her limbs were alive, and she finally had the strength to support her to do something she had always wanted to do.Seeing the frowned brows of the blond man, she shouted angrily and punched Andri Witte next to her hard.
"Snapped!"
The fist hit Andri's face, making a muffled sound.
That must have been completely beyond the conceited man's expectations, so even though Rhea's strength was not great, he was still knocked down on old Werther.
And until he fell down, he still couldn't recover from the great shock.
The meticulous blond hair was slightly disheveled, and the cold blue eyes were forced to widen, and Rhea's figure was reflected in his pupils.
"Bastard! Do you really think I can't see it? You have already awakened your consciousness, and you don't want to renew the life of Old Werther but you have been playing me!"
Rhea gritted her teeth, and she said viciously, "Go to hell!"
at the same time
Suddenly, an astonishing explosion erupted outside, so loud that even the airtight laboratory shook.
Rhea flicked the button on her watch and waited until the protective force field surrounded her, she announced.
"Now, this experimental base belongs to me."
Jedle Essex, trembling all over, shouted angrily, "What have you done!"
His face was almost completely cracked, and the blood was strangely pasted under the skin, revealing a cold blue tone under the white light.
She said coldly to Jaedal: "If you don't want to be tortured and killed by the released mutants, give me all the experimental materials."
