Chapter 244: Experimental Subject
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
All spatial technologies were closely related to the power of s.p.a.ce.
Coincidentally, Lu Ming’s Void Realm was a fusion of the powers of s.p.a.ce and time.
Just now, Lu Ming had condensed the power of the Void Realm in his eyes—this was the so-called Void Eye.
Using the power of the Void Eye, Lu Ming easily saw through the tricks of this place.
“To put it bluntly, it’s just a ruin within a ruin.”
The Flame Clan Ruin were attached to the Black Mist Zone, and the alternate s.p.a.ce in front of him was attached to the Flame Clan Ruin.
It was like a large circle encompa.s.sing a smaller circle.
“As for the method to crack it, it’s easy…” With that, Lu Ming turned to look at Ivy. “Step back a bit.”
Ivy obediently retreated and saw Lu Ming’s eyes turn pitch-black!
Even if it was a small alternate s.p.a.ce, it had been created by an Ancient Realm expert.
Of course, Lu Ming did not have the means of an Ancient Realm expert.
But simply opening the door of the ruin was relatively easy for an intermediate-level Void Realm.
It was like using a key to unlock a door without needing to know how to build a house.
As black light permeated from Lu Ming’s eyes and slowly covered his hands, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the air in front of him with great force.
There was a slight friction sound.
Lu Ming seemed to be opening a door, struggling to pull out a door shining with white light in the air!
“You go in first!”
Lu Ming shouted and Ivy immediately entered the light door while Lu Ming followed behind.
As the light and shadow in front of them changed, Lu Ming soon found himself in a futuristic-looking corridor.
Not far ahead, Ivy, Zhuang Zun, and the other two Skywalkers were lying flat on the ground.
They were making faint snoring sounds, and their brows were furrowed, as if they were having nightmares.
Lu Ming focused on Ivy…
This woman had come in a few seconds earlier than him, but she was lying there so soundly asleep.
“What’s going on?”
Just as Lu Ming was at a loss, he suddenly sensed a strange energy attack from afar and enter his mind.
A huge wave of drowsiness surged over him.
However, the entry of the foreign energy triggered an instinctive reaction in Lu Ming’s body.
A large amount of Source Power surged out of his cells and resisted the strange foreign energy. At the same time, the power of the Void Realm also fluctuated faintly, as if it had been stimulated by this foreign energy!
With the power of the Void Realm as the main force and the support of Source Power, in just a moment, Lu Ming dispelled his drowsiness and regained his consciousness.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully considered the current situation. Soon, Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief.
“Let me see who’s behind this!”
Inside Laboratory No. 1.
The Dream Source and the Crimson Queen were quietly observing everything.
When they saw Lu Ming quickly dispel the invasion of the nightmare, a look of surprise flashed in the big eyes of the Dream Source.
“This guy has some strength.”
The nightmare attack unleashed by the fake Dream Source was on par with a Spirit Realm Level Eight..
Below Spirit Realm Level Eight, no one could resist the power of the nightmare attack and could only be dragged into the nightmare to become the plaything of the Dream Source.
Unexpectedly, not only did this person tear open the door of the research inst.i.tute, but he also withstood the effect of the nightmare invasion. It was worth noting that Lu Ming’s aura displayed on the surface was not very strong.
“But it did not matter,” the Dream source muttered.
It could see that Lu Ming tried to wake Zhuang Zun and the others up, but it was useless. He could only reluctantly move deeper into the research inst.i.tute.
It could also see several distorted monsters with different appearances lying between Lu Ming and him.
It could also see that the Dream Plague it had released earlier had already dissipated with the wind and spread to every corner of the Flame Clan Ruin. The Dream Plague had even spread to the outside world through the entrances and exits of the Flame Clan Ruin.
At every moment, countless creatures were infected with the Dream Plague and became carriers for the incubation of the Dream Clan.
“My mission is completed.”
“No, there’s one last step…”
Looking at Lu Ming who was slowly walking over, a faint antic.i.p.ation flashed in the Dream Source’s single eye.
“Crimson.”
“Sir, I’m here.”
“Do you think he can do it?”
The Dream Source did not specify which aspect it was. However, the Crimson Queen understood its meaning.
A moment later, the mechanical female voice said, “No, not at all.”
“His strength cannot meet your requirements, Sir.”
“Even more so, he may not be able to break through the barriers of the experimental subject and come to you, Sir.”
This made the Dream Source blink its eye.
A moment later, a low muttering sound was heard once again.
“I see… Then forget it…”
“It’s just a pity, 1 really don’t want to experience the taste of failure from the Aeonians again.”
He patted the cheeks of Zhuang Zun, Ivy, and the others until their faces were swollen, but there was no sign of them waking up.
“Then there’s nothing we can do.”
He could not directly twist off their arms and legs to wake them up, right…
Shaking his head regretfully, Lu Ming could only choose to move forward alone.
He surveyed the surroundings.
Lu Ming discovered that this might be a secret base of some kind. The architectural style was quite technological, and he was currently in a long and narrow corridor.
The corridor was well-lit, with excellent visibility, and after walking a few hundred meters forward, there was a fork in the road in front of Lu Ming.
The question of which way to go was not a problem.
This was because there was a faint sound coming from the corridor on the right, while the left side was completely silent.
“I have to first find someone I can communicate with and ask about the situation.”
Using this as a starting point, Lu Ming decisively chose the right side.
After advancing for about 500 meters, Lu Ming suddenly stopped in his tracks.
This was because on the left side, a door was wide open, and a faint voice sounded from inside.
Looking up, Lu Ming saw writing on the wall above the door in the universal language of the Black Mist Zone..
[Laboratory No. 5]
This made Lu Ming clear his throat.
He walked to the door and politely knocked on the door frame, and said,
“Is anyone there? I need to ask for directions.”
Inside the room, a pleasant female voice came from somewhere Lu Ming could not see, “Someone’s here. Please come in.”
“Then I’ll come in.”
“Please come in.”
Lu Ming took a step forward and entered the room.
Inside Laboratory No. 1.
The Crimson Queen had somehow procured a set of imaging equipment.
The equipment was placed in front of the Dream Source, and it displayed an image of Lu Ming.
When she saw Lu Ming enter Laboratory Five, the Crimson Queen said softly in a flat mechanical voice.
“His life ends here.”
Inside the Flame Clan Royal Research Inst.i.tute, various high-risk projects were being conducted.
There were hundreds of projects in total, and the closer the number was to the front, the more dangerous the project.
Laboratory No. 5 was relatively close to the front, indicating that the projects inside were particularly frightening.
“Green Ivy.”
The name of Project No. 5 is Green Ivy..”
