NO.082 Adam
In the closed laboratory, cold and dry air-conditioned air permeates every corner, emitting a strange smell of alcohol and formalin.
On the ceiling, the energy-saving lamp is bright and dazzling. Under its illumination, the laboratory has a lifeless but very strange atmosphere.
Zhang Heng and the other two had stopped busy and focused their attention on a columnar cultivation chamber about three meters high and thick.
The base and top of this culture bin are made of metal, and the middle part is thick tempered glass. The space in the bin is filled with translucent green liquid, which constantly bubbles. In the center of the liquid, a humanoid creature curled up with limbs is suspended.
Through the slightly blurred liquid, it can be seen that it is indeed the image of a young man.
The young man was about twenty years old, his eyes were closed, his limbs were curled up, and his chest was slightly undulating. His mouth and nose were covered by a respirator to prevent them from suffocating and dying.
The man was covered with various tubes, which stretched out from the top of the culturing chamber and were linked to various instruments of complex shapes on the side. Some were as thick as wrists, while others were only as thick as fingers.
At this time, Thompson's face was full of excitement, and he kept inputting instructions on one of the instruments, and said while typing, "The heart rate of the experiment No. 1 is normal, blood pressure is normal, brain waves are normal, muscles, bones, internal organs, brain and other organs are developing normally. BOSS, we have really succeeded!"
Zhang Heng stood quietly aside, unlike the excitement of the other three people, only he knew that this technology of cultivating cloning represents the highest technology of the alien plane, and of course there is no possibility of failure.
"The No. 1 experimental subject stopped growing two hours ago, and his body successfully maintained at the age of twenty." Zhao Qing, who was standing beside him, staring at the data displayed on the lines, with envy and jealousy in his eyes. "And, after testing, his physical fitness is more than several times that of ordinary people. Is this the result of gene optimization?"
"Okay, whether it is successful or not is not the case. Let the facts speak." Zhang Heng clapped his hands and turned to look at the excited Thompson, "Awaken the experimental physical consciousness, conduct consciousness detection and physical detection."
"clear."
Thompson's expression also became serious. He gently pressed a button. Suddenly, a faint current was transmitted through the pipe into the culture chamber. The next second, the young man's body began to twitch slightly.
Zhang Heng took out a microphone next to him and said, "I am Zhang Heng, can you hear me talking?"
The young man shook for a moment and slowly opened his eyes. After seeing everything in the water in front of him, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
"Your memory should have memories of me, so do you know your mission? Your mission and the meaning of existence are to be my knife and cut all obstacles for me!" Zhang Heng's eyes flashed with light and said in a deep voice, "Are you ready to sacrifice your life for me?"
The young man's body shook slightly and nodded decisively.
Zhang Heng handed the microphone to Zhao Qing on the side. Zhao Qing immediately understood, walked to the training warehouse, and said with a smile, "Very good, now we need to test your body, and now follow me to do the movements."
"Stretch out your right hand, good, turn. Relax... Turn your neck, stretch your body, and now change your right leg, good."
Thompson, who was standing beside him, looked at the data on the instrument and nodded to Zhang Heng, "The physical data of the No. 1 experimental subject is normal, and there are no adverse reactions at all."
"Now, release the experimental subject No. 1."
"This..." Thompson's eyes showed a hint of hesitation, "Is there any danger?"
Zhang Heng shook his head and didn't say anything. Seeing Zhang Heng's determination, Thompson pressed the most eye-catching red button hard.
"laugh……!"
Suddenly, the culture chamber made a sound like a leak, and the water level line of the green liquid dropped rapidly.
Seeing that the cultivation bin began to drain, Zhao Qing, who was standing by, continued, "Listen, we will release you later. Don't try to stand, because you can't control your body for the time being. It will take a while for you to move freely like us."
The liquid was finally drained, leaving only the adult man curled up and lying at the bottom of the warehouse. Then, the glass wall of the culture warehouse automatically separated left and right, revealing a hole that allowed ordinary people to enter and exit.
Zhao Qing stepped into the training chamber in three or two steps, opened the young man's eyelids, illuminated the pupil with a flashlight, then measured the other party's pulse, turned his head to Zhang Heng and said, "Everything of the No. 1 experimental body vital signs are normal."
"Very good, lift him out and prepare liquid food by the way, and wait until he gets used to the next test."
"clear."
Afterwards, Zhang Heng and the other four handed over the other side's platform on a stretcher and took care of the experimental subjects to Hideichi Mino to complete.
About half an hour later, the No. 1 experimental subject was able to skillfully control his arms.
An hour later, the No. 1 experimental subject was able to skillfully control every movement of the body without any lingeringness.
Three hours later, the experimental subject learned how to walk and run. How fast is the fastest because the laboratory is too small to test, but its short-distance explosive power is almost comparable to Zhang Heng.
Five hours later, because of the early infancy thought implantation technology, the No. 1 experimental subject thoroughly learned every pronunciation of English and could communicate normally.
"Height 177CM, weight 70KG. One-handed force is 110KG, running speed 13M/S, maximum reaction speed 0.04S, very good. This is just the physical fitness before exercise. If you have trained, your physical fitness should be strengthened several times!"
Zhang Heng looked at all the test data on the paper, which was about the same height as his in front of him, but had a completely different appearance, and his eyes showed a look of satisfaction.
"Master, everything depends on your order." The experimenter said with a expressionless expression and a hoarse voice.
"Don't call me the master, just call me my name. If it is during the mission, you can call me the Commander." Zhang Heng reminded.
"I understand, Your Excellency Zhang Heng." The experimental subject nodded, but seemed to hesitate for a moment, trying to say something, but he didn't dare to speak.
"What's wrong? Tell me if you have any questions." Zhang Heng frowned and said dissatisfied, "Although I give your life, as long as I don't betray me, I can give you the corresponding freedom."
"Hisser Zhang Heng, do I have a name too?" the experimental subject spoke, "It's the same name as you, not the so-called experimental subject No. 1."
Zhang Heng was stunned. He looked deeply at the experimental subject that was as pure as a baby in front of him, and a gentle look suddenly appeared on his face, "Then, let's call you Adam."
"Adam..." The experiment body's pupils shrank and murmured in a low voice.
"The name is not just a code name, it also represents that we have existed in this world." Zhang Heng nodded, "I know what you are worried about, you are confused, you don't know the meaning of your life, and you don't know what the value of your existence is, right?"
Adam looked moved and nodded in confusion.
"Don't worry, your existence is by no means redundant. The meaning of your existence comes from my needs."
"What do you need?" A glimmer appeared in Adam's eyes.
"Yes, I need you." Zhang Heng looked straight into Adam's eyes, Zheng pointed his head, "I created you, you are part of my life, an extension of my will! Help me, use your power to help me achieve all my dreams!"
"Help you..." Adam looked at Zhang Heng with some shock, "Do you need help too?"
"Of course, I am not an omnipotent God, I also need help. Therefore, I created you, and this is also the meaning of your existence."
"Adam represents the first human in the world." Zhang Heng patted the other person's cheek, and a smile suddenly ejaculated on the corner of his solemn mouth, "And you represent a new beginning for human beings!"
Adam's eyes finally showed a complete glory. He nodded solemnly, "I understand, I know the meaning of my existence. Lord Zhang Heng, thank you for creating me. I will use all my strength to repay you!"
Zhang Heng smiled and turned his head, but Adam did not see the apology flashing in Zhang Heng's eyes.
Facing a clone who was as simple as a piece of white paper, even if he had the technique of implanting thoughts, the other party's pure gaze like a baby still caused Zhang Heng's heart to fluctuate.
For the first time, he realized that what he created was not a tool, but a living life!
"Maybe, my step is really wrong." Zhang Heng turned around and left, murmured in a low voice that only he could hear. "Sorry, in order to use you, I can only deceive you with lies."
"But I really need your strength very much. If you, me and the entire human race survive that disaster in the future, I will definitely give you freedom and complete feelings, but now I am not qualified to be merciful and hesitant."
Thinking of this, Zhang Heng's eyes returned to coldness, and his will as hard as steel directly dispersed the trace of guilt in his heart!
No matter how guilty Zhang Heng felt, for himself, for his family, or for the entire human civilization...
He can't hesitate at all.
Because the appearance of Adam is destined to open a new chapter in human history!
Chapter completed!
