I, Stitcher, Leon!

Dark Creatures in Chapter 1 'Creatures of the Dawn'

The cold rain was like needles, piercing the ground angrily.

The sound of the huge rain covered everything, sending out a deafening roar, venting wantonly in the darkness.

Nature is showing off her energy.

Or, to wash away the evil hidden in the darkness.

Click!

A bolt of lightning fell from the sky, violently tearing the night sky in two.

The lightning illuminated the ground and landed on a vertical antenna.

The thunder covered the impact of the downpour, and also blocked the angry roar in the underground laboratory.

[Successful introduction of lightning energy, the ninth regression experiment officially started...]

[The body cells absorb energy, and various body functions of 'Leon' begin to reset, returning to the initial state...]

['Leon' memory data erased successfully, successful return for the ninth time! 】

There was a burst of beeping from old equipment and hurried human voices, and Li Ang gradually regained consciousness.

'Where am I? '

Li Ang only remembered that before his sudden death, he was designing data values ​​for a large-scale client game adapted from the IP of a well-known Western fantasy web novel.

As a new game promoted by the company this year, the task is heavy and the task is heavy, highlighting the pursuit of excellence.

In terms of numerical design, Li Ang's plan has been rejected several times by the higher authorities.

Anyway, there is a mouth on the top, and the opening mouth is about 'no data explosion', 'the economic system will not collapse for ten years', 'to give players a real sense of growth satisfaction', 'but also stimulate players to recharge', 'the company cannot be burdened with only The infamy of recognizing money but disregarding people'.

In short, it is "necessary" and "necessary".

When it is implemented in Li Ang's hands, it is to find a balance among a lot of impossibilities.

Finally, after two months of continuous fighting day and night, Li Ang "lived up to everyone's expectations" and died suddenly on the job.

I thought that my good life was completely over, but I never thought that after a sudden cardiac arrest, Li Ang found that his consciousness had not dissipated, but a noisy and busy voice rang in his ears.

Opening his eyes with difficulty, the dazzling white light pierced into his pupils, causing his already bewildered head to be "severely hit" again.

[The experimental subject 'Leon' has awakened, monitoring various physiological indicators, and preparing tranquilizers in advance...]

Li Ang got used to it for a while, and then he saw the surrounding scene clearly.

There is no decoration on the gray concrete walls, only various exposed pipes and dazzling spotlights.

Beside me are some people wearing masks and white coats with the words "Dawn Creatures" embroidered on their chests...

medical staff?

Or a researcher?

Li Ang couldn't confirm.

Li Ang tried to get up, but suddenly found that his body was tightly bound, unable to move.

Arms, legs, torso, all bound tightly!
"Who are you? Why..."

Li Ang struggled to shout, but when he opened his mouth, a piercing pain came from his throat, followed by a burst of blood like rust.

It felt like someone picked up a bowl of molten iron and poured it down his throat.

Burning, stinging, and spicy all rushed into his head, making it difficult for Li Ang to say another word.

'If this kind of pain is given to the boss of the company with many problems, he will not even be able to say a single request, and he will not die suddenly on the job! '

This thought flashed by, and it also represented Li Ang's resentment.

Li Ang stuck his neck in the struggle, trying to break free.

But in the next second, his figure stopped.

Through the glass of the laboratory covered with a layer of light, he saw his current appearance——

The skin all over his body was gray, just the same color as the cold concrete walls of the laboratory, and there was no trace of blood.

Under the gray cold skin, it can be said that it is full of scars, with clear surgical sutures everywhere, and even dark blood burst out in several places.

What is unacceptable is that although these tissues on the body have the same skin color, it can be seen at a glance that they do not belong to the same species, and they are more like being stitched together by force.

The face is even worse than the body.

The sutures ran across the face indiscriminately, forming a non-standard and asymmetrical ×, dividing Li Ang's face into four pieces.

The junction of these four parts looks extremely rough, and even the width, narrowness, fat and thinness are not aligned.

The epidermis of the entire head looks like wrinkled lines on the surface of walnuts.

The mouth is crooked, and the two eyes are one big and one small, one red and one blue pupil.

The entire face, the only original and complete one, may be the upturned nose.

But with such a face, no matter how beautiful the nose is, it will become ugly.

Even... nauseating.

Seeing his appearance, Li Ang sent a strong command to vomit from his brain.

This is clearly a disgusting sewing monster!
It is said that time travel is a blessing.

Li Ang couldn't figure it out, he just died of overwork at his post!
Why do you have to turn into a disgusting stitching monster after time travel!

This is to catch honest people and bully them hard, right?
But immediately, Li Ang realized a more serious problem.

Instead of being anxious about his appearance, it is better to think about his current situation!
He was tied to a laboratory table and could not move, with various tubes and monitoring equipment inserted into his body.

The surrounding white coats stared at the equipment in front of them, and reported everything in the laboratory through the intercom equipment, but few people stared at him.

This is a fortune in misfortune.

If the eyes of this group of people were fixed on him, then Li Ang would have no doubt that he would be dissected into pieces and submerged in formalin solution the next moment.

Now, he had to figure out where he had traveled to and what the current situation was.

Li Ang no longer struggled and shouted, but calmly observed the environment in the laboratory.

The electronic equipment here is very large, many of which are wrapped in solid and bloated "iron boxes", and the exposed pipelines are as thick as an arm.

All the display devices that Li Ang could see were text operating systems with black background and green characters. When the equipment was running, there would be whirring fans and beeping sounds from the circuit board from time to time.

This kind of electronic product is completely at the level of computers in the 70s and [-]s.

The shape and style of other experimental equipment also reveal a strong sense of pragmatism, as long as they can be used, no modular and miniaturized design can be seen.

The level of technology is backward.

This is Li Ang's definition for the current laboratory.

But on the other hand, being able to stitch together corpses and make them conscious is beyond the scope of pure science.

To some extent, the occult has a profound foundation.

The earth that Li Ang is familiar with is taking two completely different paths.

Li Ang pricked up his ears and kept receiving reports from the experimenters.

[The vital signs of the experimental subject 'Leon' are normal, and all organs have "returned" to the initial level. 】

[Recover calmness after a short period of panic, the calming step is skipped, please ask the doctor to give you the next step. 】

……

[Yes, received! 】

[Start neural unit stimulation and determine the direction of a new round of "return" experiments. 】

As soon as the words were finished, two experimenters in white coats came over pushing a transparent tube, and put their backhands on the palm of Li Ang's right hand.

At the inner end of the tube is a device similar to an incandescent lamp, with two metal rods carrying a twisted filament.

Li Ang suddenly had a bad feeling.

In the next second, a string of sticky tentacles suddenly appeared from the palm of his hand, climbing up the pipe continuously.

Several tentacles are scrambling to climb to the end of the pipe, and the suction cups of different sizes on the tentacles can be clearly seen from the pipe wall!
This looks like the tentacles of an octopus!

Li Ang frowned suddenly.

There are octopus tentacles implanted in the arm... How many species are integrated in this sutured human body?

Just as Li Ang was stupefied, the filaments resting on the metal rod inside the pipe were suddenly lit up, showing azure blue light.

Driven by the electric energy, the filaments began to expand and spread, touching the octopus tentacles.

The blue electric light spread from the filament to the tentacles in Li Ang's palm, and the thin electric light surged rhythmically, accompanied by the spasm and twitch of the tentacles.

After the two experimenters connected, they ignored Li Ang and stared at the display device next to the console instead.

After the black-bottomed CRT screen fluctuated and flickered for a moment, green text options appeared.

The nervous system loaded successfully.

research direction:

Strength (√), Dexterity (√), Perception (√), Emotion (-), Social (-), Recovery (√), Combat (-), Potential (-).

Those ticked are those that have been studied before, and the rest are parts that have not yet been tested.

Reminiscent of the "return" vaguely heard by the experimenters before, Li Ang seemed to understand that the previous series of experiments were a process of constant experimentation, reset, experiment, and reset.

It's just that Li Ang still doesn't understand the process and principle of this "reset".

Emotional, social, potential, combat.

These four are experiments not currently covered.

For Leon, the best experimental option is social interaction, which allows him to interact more and learn more about the world, and it is definitely the more free type of experiment among the four options.

Sometimes this is the case. When fate closes one door for you, it will also open another one for you.

"The social verification experiment is now officially launched."

A cold, emotionless voice came from the walkie-talkie, giving the order mechanically.

But to Li Ang's ears, it was so pleasant, like a fairy's voice.

Really do whatever you want.

"Start the social experiment, inject electrical signal stimulation."

The experimenters applied stimulation with special frequency-modulated electrical signals, and it was only then that Li Ang understood the function of the octopus tentacles.

The electrical signal simulates the electrical signal between neurons, and it happens that the tentacles of octopuses are rich in neurons, which is the best way to transmit signals.

In short, this tentacle is a "human USB interface", which is used to convert machine language into biological signals, and directly act on the brain of the experimental subject.

At this moment, Li Ang suddenly realized that a line of fluorescent green text was suddenly projected from his eyelids.

[Hint: The simulated neuroelectric signal is received, and the content of the signal is to stimulate the thalamus activity of the social module]

[Successfully resist a spiritual invasion once, will +0.05]

[Freely assignable points +0.01]

After the text prompt disappeared, a column of information appeared.

Name: Leon (Lyon)

Attributes: Strength 2, Speed ​​0.7, Will 0.65, Constitution 0.8; (Note: All values ​​of ordinary adult men are 1)

Skill development: [Tenta control lv1 (1/100)]

Free distribution points: 0.01
'Although it's late, is this my traveler system? ' Li Ang couldn't help sighing in his heart.

At the same time, outside the laboratory, there is another scene.

A haggard middle-aged man with glasses stood in front of the main console and watched all this.

The man thought for a moment, then suddenly said:

"Send Leon to the second-generation body's bunker later."

Hearing this, the scientific researcher next to the middle-aged man with glasses showed a frightened expression.

"Doctor, if you put Leon and the second-generation body together, will something happen?"

Other researchers and assistants also echoed: "After all, the second-generation body has not been initialized and returned. After continuous iteration and accumulation, the emotional tyranny is powerful. It can be called the strongest suture creature cultivated in the research institute..."

"If Leon and the second-generation body are locked together, there must be a conflict! It's almost a scene of complete abuse."

"At that time, we're afraid we'll reap a lot of broken corpses."

Two rays of light flashed across the glasses of the middle-aged doctor, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Anyway, it's the last return. According to the "Black Code", stitched creations cannot return more than nine times. The battle and potential experiments have been transferred to the second-generation body. The remaining value of Leon is only It's time for the next experiment."

"When the time comes to record it, it will be reported as this year's results, and a large sponsorship fee will be received."

The middle-aged doctor glanced back at his researchers and said:

"With the new sponsorship fee, we will be able to proceed to the second phase of the study."

"Don't forget the purpose of investors funding our research institute!"

"Get rid of the shackles of ultimate death!"

After all, turn around and leave.

The remaining researchers looked at the sutured experiment subject Leon on the operating table through the glass.

It seems that everyone has foreseen the scene of it being torn into pieces by the second-generation body and discarded like a shoe.
