Chapter 229 Basement Level 2
"What are you talking about? What happened to Xiaoxiao?" Tan Zhengyang asked eagerly.
Cao Lu didn't have time to explain in detail, so he squatted down and let Tan Zhengyang step on his shoulders to get up.
Tan Zhengyang knew the situation was urgent, so he immediately grabbed the ventilation duct.
No sooner had I leaned onto the ventilation duct than my eyes met a human head!
"Ah!!!" Tan Zhengyang screamed in surprise, and fell backward in fright!
Jiang Lin quickly took three steps back, and the boy fell to the spot where Jiang Lin had been standing.
Cao Lu quickly looked up and saw Lu Xiaoxiao's wet head emerging from the dark ventilation duct.
"Tan Zhengyang! Are you sick? You're so jumpy! You scared me to death!" Lu Xiaoxiao scolded irritably.
"You scared me to death!" Tan Zhengyang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Xiaoxiao's strong voice, and got up from the ground, shouting, "Come down quickly, I'll catch you!"
Lu Xiaoxiao gave a soft snort and jumped down from the ventilation duct, where she was caught by Tan Zhengyang and Cao Lu.
"Xiaoxiao, are you alright?" Cao Lu frowned slightly.
"What could possibly happen to me?" Lu Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat from her face and canceled the effect of the substitute talisman.
As she passed by Jiang Lin, he smelled a fishy stench emanating from the girl.
Lu Xiaoxiao, Tan Zhengyang, and Cao Lu were injected with blue blood at the same time, but when Lu Xiaoxiao returned after being gone for thirty minutes, why did she suddenly smell so strongly of blood? Jiang Lin stared at Lu Xiaoxiao; the short-haired girl was not as fine as she claimed.
Cao Lu: "What did you discover?"
Lu Xiaoxiao: "I went to the fifth consultation room first, but there was no one there. Then I climbed down to the second consultation room, which was a laboratory. That siren named Klein seemed to be preparing blue blood. There might be some antidote or antibody there. But I didn't have a chance to go down."
Tan Zhengyang: "And then?"
Lu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at Tan Zhengyang with disdain: "And then you saw a complete idiot!"
Cao Lu: "It's good that you're alright."
Jiang Lin listened quietly to the conversation between the three, choosing not to expose Lu Xiaoxiao's lie immediately. He wanted to know what Lu Xiaoxiao was up to.
Lu Xiaoxiao's gaze also passed through Tan Zhengyang and Cao Lu, and she glanced at Jiang Lin.
Time passed. Ivy led another group of people past the sixth examination room. It seemed there weren't enough beds, so they moved the person to the fifth examination room.
Half an hour later, blue spots appeared on Tan Zhengyang's body. This guy, having heard the false information Jiang Yu got from Jiang Lin, thought he had entered the second stage and was overjoyed. As a result, Ai Wei was the first to send him away.
After Ai Wei left, Cao Lu immediately questioned Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin didn't even blink, immediately shifting the blame onto Jiang Yu: "He's hard of hearing, what does it have to do with me? Why would I lie to you about this?"
Cao Lu suffered another setback. Jiang Lin had no reason to deceive Jiang Yu on this point.
Another hour later, the ceiling above suddenly began to shake, with intermittent vibrations and faint sounds, but it didn't last long and returned to calm after ten minutes.
"What's going on upstairs?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
"Based on the timeline, all those who were injected with the blue blood earliest should have mutated, so it's normal for them to cause riots." Cao Lu wasn't too worried; Jiang Yu and Tan Zhengyang were outside, and they could definitely coordinate well.
About an hour later, no blue spots appeared on Cao Lu, Jiang Lin, or Lu Xiaoxiao. Ivy and Klein appeared together.
"All three of them passed? Unbelievable..." Klein's eyes darted back and forth between Jiang Lin and the other two.
“No rush, we have plenty of time to experiment,” Ivy said with a smile.
Jiang Lin caught the word "experiment" while pretending to be asleep.
The appearance of this word disrupted Jiang Lin's original logic.
Weren't these sirens injecting blue blood into 480 passengers in order to turn all the humans on the ship into sirens?
Jiang Lin originally thought that the so-called "second stage" referred to the difference between high mutation and evolution into low-level or high-level sea monsters.
But now, the word "experiment" that Ivy used has given Jiang Lin a new idea.
The injection of blue blood was not simply to assimilate humans into sirens, but rather part of their experiment.
What are these sirens experimenting on with humans?
Ivy called several top-notch waiters to help the three unconscious people up, lead them out of the room, and head together towards the secret elevator in the staff area.
As Jiang Lin walked through the corridor, he squinted and caught a glimpse of the oil painting hanging at the end of the corridor.
This oil painting depicts a war between humans and sea monsters. Jiang Lin felt it was very strange the moment he saw it.
In "Adventures in the Siren Kingdom", the siren invades the mermaid kingdom. Logically, shouldn't it be a war between the mermaids and the siren?
What is the relationship between sirens and humans?
What is the relationship between humans and mermaids?
What exactly did the sirens experiment on humans?
A series of questions popped into Jiang Lin's mind; he was missing a crucial link.
Ivy and Klein led Jiang Lin and the others into the elevator and entered the elevator code 666 plus the star key again, but this time, Ivy pressed "2" again!
Two underground floors!
Cao Lu, who was pretending to be unconscious, felt a chill run down his spine. The second phase was actually taking place on the second basement level!
