"The interior of the Aurora Base, has a total of four checkpoints."
"The first checkpoint, locks down the only channel between the base and the outside world, which is the elevator. Base personnel are not permitted to proceed to the surface without authorization under circumstances of not having obtained approval, unless they request approval from superiors in advance, and obtain a dual numeric-text password valid within thirty minutes."
"Beside this door, there are two people responsible for standing guard. Each person will only be informed of one of the numeric or text passwords. Only if the Fellow Travelers' password's front section and back section both match with their passwords, will this door be opened."
Seeing the crowd in doubt, Qiong Xuan then explained a bit, only then did the crowd understand clearly.
"After the security rotation, those responsible for guarding this door, is precisely you guys... As for the candidates to stand guard, random scheduling will be conducted every day. Only uncertainty, is true safety."
The crowd passed through the first checkpoint, then arriving at the base's first floor. Electric lights hung at the top of the corridor, illuminating the entire corridor brightly and translucently. From time to time figures wearing White Coat Wearer shuttled within it. The two sides of the corridor were densely packed rooms... Looking out, there were at least over a hundred.
"The first floor is mainly strategic command, resource storage, as well as the base dormitories, and the place where the Cafeteria is located. Your daily life will basically all be conducted here. Because there are many people living here, the mobility is strong, and it is also the key floor for your patrols. Every day ten people will be randomly divided into five groups, conducting irregular patrols."
Hearing this, an Enforcer spoke in incomprehension,
"Captain Qiong Xuan, calculating like this our people are not quite enough ah... You said the base has a total of four checkpoints, if each checkpoint is guarded by two people, then that's already eight people, adding on this floor's ten people, then how are the last two people divided for the other three floors?"
The third checkpoint is a special Ritual Artifact. It is able to distinguish incomers through the form of Q&A and lie detection, avoiding the situation of swapping faces to sneak in appearing, it also doesn't need people to take turns guarding.
The fourth checkpoint, there is even less need to care about it... That is not a matter you guys should worry about."
"Excluding the two people at the first checkpoint, the remaining eighteen people are divided into two batches. One batch patrols on the first floor, one batch patrols on the second floor... From the third floor downwards, unless there is a special transfer, otherwise you guys are not required to intervene."
Qiong Xuan had already thoroughly finished introducing the crowd's work. At this time, Chen Ling had a preliminary understanding towards the entire base.
No wonder everyone said the Aurora Base is the heart of the Aurora Domain. This layer by layer checkpoints' degree of rigorousness, could be called airtight. Outsiders wanting to go deep within it is as hard as ascending the heavens.
Now Chen Ling had already passed the first checkpoint. The second checkpoint was a key, which also wasn't without methods. But Chen Ling's true challenge was precisely the third checkpoint... This checkpoint, countered him dead on. Relying on himself it was absolutely impossible to pass through.
"Hopefully Jian Changsheng's side can have everything go smoothly right..." Chen Ling took a glance at the time, thinking to himself.
...
Aurora Base, third floor.
His blurry consciousness gradually recovered clarity, Jian Changsheng slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing to enter his eyes, was a stretch of snow-white ceiling, and an IV drip stand erected beside him. A bag of unknown liquid was currently following the needle tube, slowly being injected into his body...
"[Number] is awake."
Before Jian Changsheng could even sit up, a palm then pressed him back onto the bed. Someone turned on a flashlight and shone it at his pupils, closely followed by holding his pulse for a while, before speaking again, "Currently life signs are all normal, no allergic reaction to the CK-7 reagent drip test."
As the flashlight moved away, Jian Changsheng then saw clearly that a female nurse was standing in front of him, currently feeling around his body expressionlessly.
"[Number], or should I call you by your outside name, Jian Wubing?"
"You signed an agreement to voluntarily conduct Human Experimentation, so you were sent here. For a considerably long period of time next, you will have to live on the third floor... If during this process your body appears any significant changes, please let us know."
"I know what you are thinking, but you are already unable to go back. Please coordinate with our experiments. If it reaches that final step, we will end your life with as little pain as possible."
Jian Changsheng finally thoroughly awoke. He recalled Chu Muyun's "plan" from before, instantly wanting to cry but lacking tears.
On what basis was Hearts' strong point disguise and latency, while his own strong point was acting as a guinea pig??
Jian Changsheng considered himself a person with principles and bottom lines. Selling himself to act as a guinea pig for others, this kind of matter, he absolutely couldn't do. But who let this be his first mission entering the Dusk Society? He truly didn't want to nest at home acting as The Mummy anymore!
Moreover thinking carefully, for this mission apart from him, there really was fucking no one else who could do it...
After the nurse finished speaking, a voice leisurely rang out from behind.
"You don't need to say so much to him. Have you forgotten? He's a mental patient... he can't understand."
Hearing this, Jian Changsheng fiercely recovered his senses, recalling the "persona" Chu Muyun gave him. He knew the time for the organization to test him had arrived.
Under the nurse's gaze, Jian Changsheng's entire person silently climbed up from the bed. Squatting and shrinking at the head of the bed, his two hands slanted pressing against the top of his head, imitating the appearance of a Mushroom head, his gaze vacant and unmoving...
"Look, I said he was a mental patient right?" A researcher draped in a White Coat Wearer spread his hands.
The nurse took a look at Jian Changsheng with a strange expression. Just as she was about to leave, her peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the bed next door, and she let out a light "Yi".
"Also going to wake up..."
She walked to the side of the bed next door, skillfully performing a set of the same procedures as Jian Changsheng. The final results were also mostly the same, without obvious allergy symptoms.
"His remaining days are numbered. The higher-ups requested to seize the time to do experiments. Go prepare a bit, we'll start directly in a while. The dosage of the medicine must all be double portions."
"Double portions?? His injuries are already very severe, will he be able to endure it?"
"You don't need to care about this, go quickly."
The nurse and researcher turned around and left, conveniently locking the door from the outside. The room instantly fell into a stretch of dead silence.
At the same time, Jian Changsheng who was currently crouching at the head of the bed pretending to be a Mushroom, secretly turned his head, using his peripheral vision to look onto the bed position beside him.
A young man roughly around the same age as him, was currently lying on his back on the bed, blankly looking at the ceiling overhead. Not knowing how much time passed, two lines of tears silently slid down from the corners of his eyes...
