I have found out your real name

Chapter 124 Hymn
The so-called wicker man, the prototype is the sacrificial ceremony held by the Celts in the early summer to pray for a good harvest. At first, it was just to weave a large cage in the shape of an animal with wicker, and then put the animal to be sacrificed into it, and then lit it with fire and dedicated it to the gods.

But soon, they gave this ritual a more bloody meaning. They would erect huge wooden or grass idols, place captives, slaves or prisoners in them, and finally ignite the giant statues and burn them together.The ancient Celts believed that the more people sacrificed, the more food the land would produce.

But now, after forcibly looting the sacrifices, the colossus composed of plants is about to complete this human sacrifice ceremony in the burning of the flames.

Li Wu held the sword in both hands, and inserted it vertically into the bottom of the cage.

"You are an organ used for human sacrifice, a giant of plant weaving!"

He read aloud the word spirit that activates the sword of Kurikara.

Responding to the essence of the enemy, the black dragon's entangled sword lighted slightly, and the blue flame flowed to the bottom of the cage, assimilating the contaminated flames used to burn the sacrifices into one, and then quickly crawled out of the cage, along the Legs made of various plants spread all the way down.

If the intelligent consciousness that controls the wicker man has read a certain classic novel of gods and demons by Donghua, then it will definitely understand the principle of not randomly stuffing things into the body.

But now it can only be like an ordinary person who kicked the foot of the bed with his thumb, convulsed in the blue flames, and even the movement of raising his right hand to release the corn missile is sluggish.

And this abnormal pause between attack waves, no opponent will let it go easily.

Aoi Xingchuan accelerated in the air, like a flying scalpel, swept over the group of peas, watermelons, and corn kernels, cut them into pieces of different sizes, and rushed into the head of the wicker man, which was composed of a large mushroom. nearby.

She laid Jiyo flat and horizontal on the left side of her body, and the high-speed frictional air flow violently passed through the ax face, producing sharp whistling sounds and thin water vapor.

The central shaft between the blades glows with white blazing light, which clings to the blades at both ends like an electric current, looking up from the ground like a ball of lightning.

The magical girl crossed the giant without slowing down.

Most of the huge mushroom head exploded abruptly, and a large amount of purple pus was evaporated in mid-air by the green flames that had eroded the upper body before it could be spilled, leaving only a terrifying wound ravaged by the giant ax and the wind pressure.

"I'm going to... destroy you... angrily."

Intermittent sounds came from the mushroom head, the wound squirmed and tried to repair itself, but the "sacrifice" in its body would not sit back and watch this happen.

Li Wu drew his sword and chopped off the cane that had been trying to reach into the cage to grab him from the very beginning, and then inserted the Guli Jialuo sword back to its previous position with his backhand.

He repeated the old tricks and imitated the tactics he had used against the white dragon, constantly beating and pushing the long sword to go deeper, and every blow would cause a blue ring of fire to billow.

In the end, the two legs of the wicker man couldn't support them, and they were bent and broken in the burning of the flames. The whole giant statue collapsed like a pile of dead branches and rotten wood, setting off smoke and dust that covered the entire botanical garden. The strong shock almost It made Li Wu think that the ground on this floor was about to be crushed.

But in the end, it just fell silently on the ground where there was no grass and trees, turning into a huge fire.

A gust of wind exploded from the bottom up in the center of the fire, and the broken stems and leaves of the plants surged out.

Li Wu grabbed the edge of the hole he blasted away, and jumped out of the wicker man's body.

"Mr. Zombie ran back to the first floor, do you want to find him?"

Aoi Xingchuan withdrew the light wings behind him, landed beside him and asked.

"It's all here, let's go to the third floor first."

Li Wu made a decision after a little thought.

Although he was also a little concerned about how Akamatsu Goro would react after learning the truth, after all, the main purpose of coming this time was because of the rumors that Weilan Pharmaceutical Company was involved in superpower development technology.

So they walked around the botanical garden where the ecology had been completely destroyed, and there was a burning corpse in the center, and finally found the passage leading to the third floor in the upper left corner.

I don't know what the reason for the construction of this refuge is. There is no elevator or other facilities between the floors, and you can only go up and down with two legs.

If the first floor is arranged for people to live in, and the second floor is like a giant greenhouse, then the third floor gives the impression of a complex factory.

After coming out of the gate connecting the second floor, it turned out to be a steel structure corridor built in the air.

Through the floor-to-ceiling glass on both sides, one can overlook the vertically and horizontally extending pipelines below and facilities similar to crawler conveyors.

Next to the belt of the transport plane, there are water tanks with a size of about ten cubic meters at intervals. They all contain liquids of unknown composition, and they sway slightly to reflect the green light above, rendering the whole space in a strange color. .

Glass jars placed side by side can be faintly seen in the sink, most of which are empty, a small part can be seen with plant remains, and a small part... Li Wu personally thinks it is a human body.

The twin sunflowers in the flowerpot that Xiaobai had been holding all this time made a small cry, but it was not affected by the battle just now, nor did it join forces with its own kind.

"I don't even want to know what this place is for."

Aoi Hoshikawa announced.

"Judging from the picture displayed by the big mushroom before, I think it is used for human cloning or something... The gangster clone I met before may have been manufactured here."

Li Wu analyzed it carefully, which drew a protest of "Hello!"

A frisbee-shaped building was connected to the front of the corridor, and they stepped into it.

The most central one is the room with the number plate of the supervisor's office, which occupies the largest space, and various compartments with different functions are lined up on both sides.

Some compartments are obviously used to store files or conduct experiments, but some compartments make people unable to understand the purpose.

For example, there is a room on the right side of the supervisor's office, which is second only to it in size. The walls have been treated with transparency, and Li Wu can see that there are soft carpets, plush toys, and even a crib inside.

Because this style was too eye-catching to appear here, he couldn't help but push open the door of this room first.

The moment the two entered the door, the TV hanging on the upper right corner of the house turned on automatically, and cheerful melodies poured out from it.

"Here...do you use idol programs for early education?"

Aoi Xingchuan raised her head halfway and said incredulously.

What was shown on the TV was the song and dance program of the idol group that the zombies on the first floor were watching. Li Wuneng saw the girl called Xiao Yangzi leaning close to the camera and showing a sweet smile.

What a gifted education.

I just don't know who this house is for.

Apart from the TV that plays automatically when someone walks in, there's not much else to note here.

So the two drove straight into the supervisor's office. The interior decoration was not like an office, but rather like a church suitable for devout believers to pray. The magnificent ceiling was decorated with portraits of religious figures, and the four walls were decorated with crosses. and oil paintings depicting the miracle of the resurrection after death.

Li Wu thought of the cross and theological classics he saw when he first entered here, and when he thought of Abkhataq's identity, a strange sense of dislocation emerged.

"The computer here can still be turned on."

There was no information to be seen in the office, so Li Wu turned on the desktop computer placed on the long wooden table without any hope, and the screen lit up unexpectedly.

And there is no password yet.

But the reason is obvious, most of the memory in the machine has been cleaned up, and the remaining documents named experiment log are basically irrelevant to the experiment, but his eyes still brightened when he saw the letter A in the suffix.

The so-called deceased is gone, Brother Abu was unfortunately eaten by a dragon, but his secret should not go with him.

The crumbs who completely forgot who fed the vampire's head to the dragon quickly browsed the content of the document.

"The plants are almost mature, and it's time for the hymn project to experiment."

A never-before-heard name popped out of the first sentence.

Combined with the information collected before, does this hymn project refer to the plan he found to develop superpowers?
But the follow-up is just a long paragraph of blank space, and the content jumps away to what to eat every day and scolding Party A.

Li Wu endured Abhatak's complaints, and finally saw the informative content again.

"Experiment 032 is obsessed with watching human idols. It's really an interesting change. I called in a batch of resources, and it's okay to talk about it."

What follows is a series of comments on the major idol girl groups at that time.

Li Wu cursed viciously that the vampire, who might have been turned into minced flesh, was rotten and smelly, and then continued to look down.

It's the end of the document when we mention the content related to the Anthem project again.

"Almost all of the 666 experimental subjects have been destroyed, but 032 ran out. What a bunch of useless fools."

Li Wu thought of the experimental accident that led to the collapse of Weilan Pharmaceutical Company, which may refer to the "defection" incident of the experimental subject.

He also understood who the room he had seen before was for.

The record of the vampire seems to end here, and then someone attached a report-like record at the end:
"The trace of Experiment 032 has been confirmed. After escaping, it hid in the sewer system of Uchiko Street in Hanayacho. It was already dead when it was found, and its remains showed signs of being devoured by wild beasts. The remaining parts have been recovered—the information of Anthem should be No risk of leakage."

Li Wu turned off the monitor, and two equally puzzled faces were reflected on the pitch-black screen.

"Those experimental subjects...are they used for superpower development?"

The magical girl clenched her fists, "It's too much."

"Judging from the few words here, this Experimental Subject 032 has at least resisted, and has caused them a lot of trouble."

Although the end result is still death.

After learning about the incidents that happened here, a gloomy atmosphere suddenly wrapped around every inch of space here, making people so depressed that they couldn't help but want to smash something.

After leaving the supervisor's office, they searched the Frisbee-shaped building again, and found classrooms that were probably used to educate the experimental subjects, a reading room with empty bookshelves, and other facilities.

If the 666 subjects were humanoid and their ages matched the facilities they saw, it would probably be an overcrowded nursery.

Too bad it's just a nasty hell joke now.

While walking in the corridor on the way back, Li Wu threw a fireball down. The flame exploded just beside one of the sinks, and the half-blocked surface of the sink was exploded. Ignite it, and turn the entire tank into a bonfire downstream.

"Student Li Wu, are you angry?"

The footsteps of the girl walking ahead echoed in the empty third floor, and then stopped suddenly.

Aoi Xingchuan turned around and asked.

"It's an exaggeration to say you're angry."

Li Wu extinguished the flame in his hand, "I'm just not used to it."

After stepping into the extraordinary world, the concentration of "maliciousness" he encountered was actually not high.

Uehara Yu didn't appear suddenly until the end, and he was knocked down without much effort. He just ran around and made enemies with monsters.

And the fight with Arisa's father that happened later was essentially just a family conflict. As for Abkhatak and his men, they were originally inhuman creatures, and he also treated them with the mentality of treating monsters. .

However, in the investigation during this period, although there were also aliens such as mermaids and vampires involved, the whole was soaked in the unique malice of human beings towards the same race.

For example, the murder of the mermaid who still doesn't know who the murderer is, Makoto Hirata who puts his hope on his relatives in the company but was transformed into a zombie, all kinds of things in this shelter...

Just when his thoughts diverged to nowhere, he felt someone pat him on the shoulder.

"Don't think so much, open the muzzle and shoot at the enemy in front of you, and you're done. This is what a senior of mine said to me."

The magical girl tried to make a serious point, "So don't get entangled, Li Wu, let's have a blast!"

"Well, thank you."

Although she felt that something was wrong, she still received her comfort.

After being interrupted by such an interruption, Li Wu realized that there was still an unresolved incident: "Go and see how the zombies on the first floor are doing."

The key to zombie survival is not to get headshot.

So the former owner of the Corpse Club lying in front of Li Wu and the others obviously couldn't stand up forever.

The old Borg's head was smashed with peas, while the new boss was still sitting at the bar drinking horsepower drinks one cup after another. After suddenly killing the former, the new boss announced that everyone could drink freely for three days. Coupled with the deterrent weapon that was removed from the head of the plant, this simple seizure of power was actually done like this.

"Which show are you acting in?"

Li Wu sat beside Akamatsu Goro and asked, while Aoi Xingchuan leaned against the door, watching the situation in the room.

"Death of a Fool and Reign of Lies?"

The latter really thought about it and replied.

"After you know that the outside world is fine, don't you want to take them out?"

Facing this slightly sharp question, the zombie lowered his head, then turned to look at him calmly: "Did I tell you before I went upstairs that I want to see the real thing more?"

He didn't expect an answer, but continued with a deep sense of exhaustion: "Now I regret it. I would rather continue to live a lie, believing that there is already a radioactive wasteland outside, and this is the only safe home .”

"I won't take everyone out. This is the price we have to pay for surviving. Those patients who have been hurt more deeply, those whose minds have been destroyed in inhumane experiments, the people here are not victims, but also perpetrators." part of that."

Li Wu looked at him for a while, then put the sunflower pot that Xiao Bai was holding onto the bar counter: "At least add some green?"

The twin sunflowers opened their leaves and turned the two flower discs curiously.

"so cute."

Akamatsu Goro touched its head, "Now that the botanical garden has been demolished by you, it's time for everyone to get familiar with plants."

After placing the sunflower that led them to discover this place, Li Wu asked Chisong, who had recovered his memory, if he had any memories related to the hymn project, and left after getting the answer.

Before leaving, he heard the singing of the idol group that Xiaoyangzi stood in C again from the club.

Chisong, who got the real answer, held the microphone and stood under the TV to cheer the loudest.

"The outside world has been destroyed!"

Zombie said so.
