Chapter 429: Hidden Ending
February 23rd’s diary entry read: “Over the course of a long day, I formed a team with a group of like-minded friends. The friends proposed our team’s name to be the Scavenger Army. The worm body’s thirst grew stronger and stronger, but my research on the worm body is at a standstill. ”
March 29th’s diary entry read: “The connection to the worm body’s growing stronger and stronger, and I can clearly sense that the worm body inside me is calling me to a place. What exactly is there? Perhaps the answer? ”
June 5th’s diary entry read: “I finally found it! Apparently, this was once the territory of Meteorite Company! It was originally a shelter designed and set up by the company to prepare for a global zombie disaster in advance! The connection came from inside the shelter! ”
June 8th’s diary entry read: “Meteorite Company’s shelter has long been occupied by the zombies. When we checked the periphery, we found that the shelter was badly damaged by some sort of violent explosion. Although it’s very dangerous, we plan to sneak in tomorrow. ”
June 10th’s diary entry read: “It took a long time, but I finally found the source of the connection! I never thought that it came from a metal box! Perhaps it was due to the impact of the explosion, but the outer layer of the metal box was damaged. What’s inside? I have a feeling it’s like Pandora’s Box. Once it’s opened... ”
June 12th’s diary entry read: “Inside the shelter of Meteorite Company, I found the remnants of the research room. From inside, I recovered some confidential information. A long time ago, Meteorite Company halted a certain experiment, codename Hila. I wonder what the experiment was about. In the only records, Hila was interrupted because of some external factors. After that, Meteorite Company blocked almost all the related information about the experiment. Meteorite Company even put the related experimental product leftovers of Hila into 12 special metal boxes, and through their authority, they hid the metal boxes in every corner of the world. That’s right! The box I found is probably the box of Hila. But the strange thing is, why didn’t Meteorite Company choose to destroy the experimental products instead of storing them in such a strange way? Why did they go through so much trouble and hide the products in 12 corners of the world? Was it really necessary to do so? I don’t know. ”
July 15th’s diary entry read: “It’s been over a month. After returning to the shelter, I’ve done a lot of research on the metal box. Due to the big explosion at Meteorite Company’s shelter, the outer layer of the metal box is greatly damaged. Maybe that’s why the worm body in my body can feel its presence. I can’t research any further without completely opening the metal box. It’s time to make a decision. I’m opening it! ”
July 16th’s diary entry read: “I’ve been out cold for a full day! I’m pretty sure that I’ve been infected by the special worm body in the box! I did a quick check, and there didn’t seem to be any symptoms other than being out cold. Okay, let me try to sort my thoughts. There’s some wriggling flesh complex in the box. When I tried to test it, I found worms in the tissue. I think I was infected by the worm body then and passed out... I just finished the test and confirmed that the tissue is a human tissue sample. The scary thing is, it’s still alive! Those worm bodies have a terrifying will to live! The tissue is more like a host for the worm bodies! I understand now. It’s not that Meteorite Company didn’t want to destroy the Hila experimental tissue sample, but they simply couldn’t do it! What the hell is Meteorite Company doing! I need to do a detailed check, including the tissue sample, the worm bodies, and myself... ”
May 17th’s diary entry read: “Dawn is coming. Let’s welcome the new world together. This world, together with me... ”
...
The contents of the notebook came to an abrupt end there.
Fang Heng closed the book and lowered his head in silence, pondering, “Box, Hila experiment, and the mysterious worm body. So... According to the contents of the notebook, Cook Barn was only completely controlled by the worm body after he was infected by the parasitic worm body, huh? He was only able to develop the divine potion after he was controlled by the worm body. It seems like all of Cook Barn’s previous guesses were off the mark... ”
Fang Heng had a vague feeling that he had caught onto something.
He found that the entire Zombie Apocalypse game story had a rough outline and tried to reconstruct the story.
Fang Heng tried to reconstruct the story.
“At the very beginning, Meng City experienced a meteorite crash, and the researchers discovered the special ability of the first-generation meteorite. After that, the first-generation meteorite was purchased by a large corporation, and Meteorite Company was founded. During one of the experiments of the research team on the first-generation meteorite named Hila, Meteorite Company must have discovered an unknown worm body. Perhaps the scale of the Hila experiment exceeded Meteorite Company’s expectations, or there might have been some accident. Therefore, Meteorite Company terminated the Hila project and divided the tissue samples of Hila into 12 parts, hiding them in every corner of the world. After that, Meteorite Company used another method to study the first-generation meteorite and developed the first-generation virus. Subsequently, the zombie apocalypse broke out. The Dark Knights and Cook Barn were accidentally infected with the worm virus through the first-generation meteorite. Sensing the existence of Hila’s tissue, Cook Barn searched for the secret of the worm body. However, he was unfortunately infected by the worm body inside Hila’s tissue and was completely controlled by the worm body? ” Fang Heng frowned and scratched his hair. “So, the rational guess is that the life form sample of Hila is the ‘final boss? ‘ But... What exactly is the Hila experiment? ”
“Hint: player has obtained the notebook left by Cook Barn. Player has obtained important information on the Hila experiment. Player has obtained 12,000 main storyline contribution points. ”
“Hint: player’s main storyline contribution points ranking in District 7 has increased to 4th place. ”
“Hint: player has triggered the main storyline ‘the Hila experiment. ‘ ”
Mission name: the Hila experiment.
Mission description: You have learned about the Hila experiment from the notebook left behind by Cook Barn.
Mission requirement: please look for more information about the Hila experiment.
Mission reward: main storyline contribution points, access to S-level hidden ending.
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat. He thought, “Unlocking a hidden ending? Damn it, I knew there was more than one game ending! Seems like the game ending triggered by the Hila experiment is relatively more hidden. An S-level ending’s reward should be better. ”
Osborne looked eagerly at the notebook in Fang Heng’s hand.
Now, all their lives were in Fang Heng’s hands.
“Commander Fang, do you have any clues? ”
“Yeah, I found some clues. ” Fang Heng temporarily stopped thinking and handed over the notebook in his hand. “You guys take a look too. If you think of any clues, you can tell me. ”
While Osborne and Ni Shengtao were studying the notebook, Fang Heng walked to the most eye-catching item in the room, the cultivation pod.
“Huh? ” Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
A piece of flesh was floating amid a yellow liquid in the cultivation pod.
