Card Room - 303. Chapter 441-442

【Chapter 441, The Mermaid Prince】

Ye Qi suddenly thought of a more terrifying result. He looked at Xiao Lou and said, “Professor Xiao, if you say that the mermaid tribe is still studying clones, since they can get cells from Brother Nine and Mr. Tang. And let the cells grow into adults in a short time, then they can also copy Liu Qiao, Gui Senior and Lao Mo!”

Xiao Lou also thought of this, and his face was even more ugly: “You are right, after all, Xiao Liu, Lao Mo, and Senior Gui are all in the Mermaid clan. It is not difficult to use their cells to replicate.”

Tang Ci frowned and asked, “Who else in our team hasn’t been copied?”

Yu Hanjiang said: “I have a clear memory since I was young. Except for going to a military school at the age of 18, I haven’t left Capital Star at other times, nor have I been to the hospital for check-ups. In theory, they should not be able to get me. Cell.”

Lu Jiuchuan said: “And Huaying. She has been a star thief since she was a child. She has been wandering around the universe with the Dark Night starship. She has never landed on any human planet. It is difficult to be copied.”

Xiao Lou said: “Long Sen and Qu Wanyue have stayed in Capital Star since they were young. Their parents are very ordinary people and have nothing to do with Noah’s Ark Project. They should not have been copied either.”

Shao Qingge joked: “Our team has 12 people, only 4 have not been copied, and the remaining 8 may have pirated copies, so this time the secret room is actually a’combat piracy game’, right? ”

Everyone: “…”

At this time, Mr. Shao is still joking, everyone believes this is definitely a genuine Mr. Shao.

Xiao Lou opened the contract and confirmed the names of his teammates again. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Fortunately, the names of the 12 people in the contract are all there. At least everyone is alive whether or not they are copied.”

Yu Hanjiang frowned and said: “Long Sen and Qu Wanyue are temporarily safe, Huaying is the head of the star thief, so nothing should happen. It is Liu Qiao, Senior Gui and Lao Mo that are worrying. Liu Qiao has lost consciousness. We I have to confirm my identity with Senior Gui as soon as possible, as well as the next plan.”

Lu Jiuchuan thought for a while, and suddenly said, “By the way, the hunters can find our information, but they can’t know what we’ve talked about in private. The only way to make Laogui believe us is to say that only we know it. , But the secret that cannot be found out from any channel.”

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci looked at each other and quickly reached a tacit understanding.

Tang Ci came to Shao Qingge and leaned over to Mr. Shao and said in a low voice: “Once I was trapped in a maze and chatted, Guilao told me and Jiu Ge that he was a calligrapher in name, but he was actually more patriotic in private. In the third grade of elementary school, the paintings he practiced and painted were sold online and earned 400 yuan. That was his first income in his life. The paintings were plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum in ink-and-wash style.”

Shao Qingge had a spiritual channel and said to Gui Lao: “Go to senior, Tang Ci told me that you sold 300 yuan of paintings you practiced in the third grade on the Internet. Do you remember what you painted at that time?”

Gui Yuanzhang’s deep voice sounded in his mind: “It’s 400 yuan, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum.”

Shao Qingge nodded towards Tang Ci: “It’s right.”

Tang Ci breathed a sigh of relief: “It’s true, even his parents don’t know about this.”

Gui Yuanzhang was puzzled: “Is Tang Ci next to you? Then what did I see today?”

Shao Qingge said: “The Nine Brothers, Tang Ci, Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, and Ye Qi you saw were all clones cultivated with cells. Didn’t the predecessors notice that it was wrong?”

Gui Yuanzhang thought carefully and said: “Professor Xiao said at the beginning that his card package was stolen. Shao Zong and Ye Qi also cannot use cards, but Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci are still lying in the treatment room and unconscious. Not awake. Xiao Lou explained that the S-class secret room is very difficult, and this must be the arrangement of the gatekeeper.”

Shao Qingge frowned and relayed Guilao’s words to Xiao Lou.

Xiao Lou helplessly said: “This cloner is very smart. We had teammates who were in a coma for several days in the tenth level. He used the “gatekeeper’s arrangement” to explain that the card bag was stolen and the teammates were comatose. It is indeed easy to believe. .”

In the tenth pass, Shao Qingge was in a coma until the third day before waking up. There are also some secret rooms where cards are forbidden. If all this is understood as “the plot is deliberately set by the gatekeeper in order to increase the difficulty,” he does not know the “copy” at all. Under the premise of human existence, what reason do teammates have to doubt?

As long as they don’t show too much footwork, Liu Qiao’s trio will soon follow their rhythm and believe them.

Xiao Loudao; “Ask seniors, what are they doing these days?”

Shao Qingge asked in his mind: “Senior, what have you been doing these days when you entered the secret room? Except that Brother Jiu and Tang Ci were in a coma, are there nothing unusual about Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, and Ye Qi?”

Gui Yuanzhang said: “There is nothing unusual on the surface. Everyone has been investigating the human bones on the sunken ship. Using forensic knowledge, Xiao Lou inferred that there were 8 males and 2 females in those human bones. They died 20 years ago and the cause of death was drowning in the sunken ship. Since this ship is a military spacecraft, and the pattern printed on it is not like the emblem of the Azure Empire, we have come to the conclusion that this ship is from other countries and other clues are under investigation.”

Shao Qingge glanced at Xiao Lou with a complicated expression, and said in a low voice: “Your copyist still knows the knowledge of forensic anatomy. No wonder Liu Qiao and the others trust that Xiao Lou so much.”

Xiao Lou: “…”

Imagine that a person with 99% similar appearance, voice, expression, and actions to Xiao Lou can quickly analyze the characteristics of human bones and the cause of death as before when taking everyone to investigate the case, and even infer the origin of the sunken ship…

He said that the card bag was stolen, would his teammates still doubt it?

Yu Hanjiang was keenly aware that something was wrong. He said: “This Xiao Lou does not necessarily understand forensic anatomy. It is more likely that he knows these people on the sunken ship. He knows how these people died. Of course, he can tell the gender of these people. The cause of death, time of death, and the origin of the shipwreck also convinced Liu Qiao and the others in his ability to investigate the case and mistakenly thought he was Xiao Lou.”

Xiao Lou also suddenly reacted: “The Gu raising program 20 years ago killed most of the copied children, and the few who survived were elites. No one in Xiao Lou No. 4 had ever seen it, maybe someone would take care of it at that time. He escaped from the palace and escaped to the blue planet? The shipwreck suffered an accident in the sea, and everyone else died, but the clone survived?”

Shao Qingge said: “Humans are afraid of water, but Zergs are not afraid of water. Replicators have Zerg genes on their bodies, and perhaps they have inherited this advantage? They can stay on the bottom of the sea without breathing for a long time.”

This sentence shocked Xiao Lou’s spirit: “So Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, and Ye Qi can stay on the bottom of the sea forever!”

Yu Hanjiang carefully stroked his thoughts and said: “Suppose someone from the military department secretly took Xiaolou 4 out of the palace, and also took the copy of Shao Qingge and Ye Qi and fled to the blue planet. The spacecraft they piloted accidentally arrived. I encountered a maritime vortex here. The spacecraft plunged into the deep sea, and others were drowned, but Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi, who had Zerg genes in their bodies, survived.”

Xiao Lou added: “These people took away all the data related to the cloners when they fled. The shipwreck happened to allow the Zerg to obtain the information of the Noah’s Ark Project and continue to conduct research in the deep sea?”

If this conjecture is true, all the current clues can be connected together.

The shipwrecks and human bones that Guilao encountered in the deep sea were the bones of the scientific researchers of the Loco Empire who had fled with the clones and some military officials. Those people ran away from the empire in a hurry, probably because they realized that your Majesty’s plan was too crazy and would definitely kill them, so they took a few clones and all the materials to escape…

As a result, when encountering a sea whirlpool, all human beings died, but the three clones survived.

At that time, Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, and Ye Qi were theoretically 5-year-old bodies and babies’ IQs. The mermaid might have taken a fancy to the copy of the data they brought and were very interested in this plan, so they combined the three Replicators grow up to adulthood. Otherwise, how could the three of them outsiders have been living in the deep sea territory of the mermaid tribe?

Xiao Lou looked at Shao Qingge: “Ask seniors, their identities in the mermaid clan.”

Shao Qingge asked immediately: “Senior, what identities are assigned to the teammates you met?”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “Xiao Lou is the prince of the Mermaid tribe, Liu Qiao is his sister, Princess Mermaid; Shao Qingge and Ye Qi are friends of Xiao Lou. Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci were rescued by Xiao Lou when he went out half a year ago. Human beings, Lao Mo is the architect of the Mermaid tribe, and I am the elder of the Mermaid tribe.”

While listening, Shao Qingge relayed it to his teammates.

At the end of hearing, Lu Jiuchuan couldn’t help but said, “So, it is the copy of Xiaolou who saved us on the planet Zerg?”

Tang Ci nodded and said, “He has lived in the mermaid for more than 20 years, and has learned the mermaid song that disturbs his mind. At the same time, he still has the Zerg gene in his body. He understands the voice of the Zerg and can talk to the Zerg queen?”

At that time, the Zerg queen was already out of anger and vowed to let all the members of the army led by Lu Jiuchuan be buried. If someone could not communicate with her and eliminate her anger, how could she easily let go?

Knowing the song of mermaid, human language, and Zerg language…

Xiao Lou reluctantly helped his forehead: “This copyist is much better than me.”

The clone is more powerful than the deity. This is probably what your Majesty wants to see most? According to the principle of survival of the fittest, this Xiao Lou is the best candidate to inherit the throne-his body will not be injured, not to mention the skin, even the internal organs can be repaired automatically; he is not afraid of water, and walks on flat ground in the deep sea; he is a song of mermaid , Can confuse people’s mind; he also has a very high IQ.

Ye Qi couldn’t help but complain: “This copyist is simply a sci-fi and cool male lead script. Not to mention inheriting the throne of the Loco Empire. He can also inherit the throne of the Mermaid. By the way, he will destroy the Azure Empire, make friends with the Zerg, and dominate the interstellar. Not a dream.”

Shao Qingge chuckled and touched his nose: “Unfortunately, the man who took the script of the male lead is our enemy-the hunter.”

Everyone: “…”

This is depressing!

The genuine Xiaolou, how do you compete with this hunter who takes the script of the heroine of the StarCraft Shuangwen?

Don’t say Xiao Lou goes to the deep sea, he can’t swim, he can drown in 5 minutes in the sea. He also doesn’t have the ability to repair his body, so it hurts when he is slightly injured, and he is fatally injured.

Xiao Lou held his temple helplessly: “To solve this Xiao Lou of the Mermaid tribe, we have to find out who the Mermaid tribe is helping him forge his identity. How can he become the prince of the Mermaid tribe as a copycat?”

Ye Qi curiously asked, “Is he someone with a tail? Wouldn’t it be revealing if he doesn’t have a tail?”

Shao Qingge simply asked the old man: “Senior, do you see Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, and Ye Qi have tails?”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “The mermaid tribe has long evolved legs that can walk. When in the mermaid palace, they will walk on their legs like humans. But when they go out to sea, they will grow the iconic tail of the mermaid tribe. A mermaid with a tail can swim in the sea at a speed of almost 200 kilometers per hour.”

This is faster than a sports car!

Shao Qingge looked at everyone with a complicated expression: “Guilao said that Xiao, Shao, and Ye all have tails.”

Ye Qi’s back was cold, and he couldn’t help reaching out his hand to touch the back of his tailbone…cough cough, he couldn’t imagine what he would be like with a fish tail? He really wanted to see the copied mermaid Yeqi.

Tang Ci thoughtfully: “There is a tail? In other words, these are probably copy 2.0 version?”

******

[Chapter 442, Upgraded Copy]

Version 2.0? Tang Ci’s words made everyone stunned.

Replicating version 1.0, human cells are fused with Zerg genes, and gain the ability of Zergs to develop rapidly on the blanket of bacteria, and the body can grow and mature in a short period of time. At the same time inherited the Zerg repair ability.

Duplicate version 2.0, on the basis of 1.0, has been upgraded and merged with the genes of the mermaid tribe. It can sing the confusing mermaid song and grow a mermaid tail?

Yu Hanjiang said with a stern face: “If the mermaid clan also has a crazy behind-the-scenes envoy like Xiao Lou’s father and king, 20 years ago, after the spacecraft of the Luo Ke Empire fell into the deep sea, this person found three surviving clone children and With all the materials of Noah’s Ark Project, he brought the three clones back to the Mermaid. Based on the existing information, he upgraded to version 2.0, then killed the true prince of the Mermaid, and made the 2.0 version of Xiaolou. Heir to the Mermaid tribe.”

Xiao Lou’s head is about to explode: “It seems that the Xiao Lou Liu Qiao and the others saw was not No. 4, which had escaped from the empire, but the upgraded No. 5? This No. 5 Xiao Building is a fusion of humans, Zergs, and Mermaid tribes. Not only is it not afraid of sea water, but it also has a mermaid tail that can travel fast in the deep sea at a speed of 200 km/h?”

Everyone: “…”

Lu Jiuchuan vomited: “The duplicator can still upgrade and transform, just like the mobile phone system releases version 1.0 or version 2.0! Will there be 3.0 in the future? Is the gatekeeper’s mind a bottomless pit?”

Tang Ci calmly said: “No matter how many versions there are, at present, Guilao and they are definitely encountering high-level clones that incorporate the outstanding genes of the three races. We want to solve these 2.0 versions. First, we must go to the deep sea.”

Xiao Loudao: “We are all ordinary humans, and we can’t live in the water for 5 minutes. If we want to go to the deep sea, we can only rely on Liu Qiao’s [Mermaid Princess] card, but now Liu Qiao is controlled…Let Guilao think of a solution. ”

Shao Qingge nodded and relayed all Xiao Lou’s meaning to Gui Lao.

Gui Yuan Zhang said, “Okay, I will find Liu Qiao right away.”

In order to avoid the hurricane on the sea, Xiao Lou and the others relied on various card skills to escape and found a floating broken wooden ship nearby.

At this time, the six were standing on the boat, shivering by the night wind on the sea.

This wooden boat is obviously a local fisherman’s boat. It is very simple. The people on the boat are dead. Ye Qi was just wet by the sea and was blown by the sea breeze when he was soaked. It felt like wearing short sleeves in the bitter cold winter. As in the street, he couldn’t help but wrinkled his nose and sneezed a few violently.

Xiao Lou was also very cold, so he simply summoned Bai Juyi and quickly used compasses to make some temporary hand warmers.

Lu Jiuchuan took the hand warmer he handed over and exclaimed: “The cards can still be used like this…”

Ye Qi smiled and said, “Brother Nine, you will get used to it very quickly. Professor Xiao always uses Bai Juyi to make fire as a heater, and we also use Bai Lingka as a parasol!”

Lu Jiuchuan gave Xiao Lou a thumbs up.

Everyone hugs a hand warmer, everyone feels much more comfortable, standing on the sea and waiting can bear it.

Xiao Lou said: “Mr. Shao, keep in touch with Gui Lao.”

Shao Qingge’s face sank: “Guilao said, No. 5 is here.”

Xiao Lou’s back tightened suddenly: “Let Guilao be careful, don’t be controlled like Liu Qiao!”

At this time, inside the mermaid palace.

There was a knock on the door outside, and Gui Yuanzhang didn’t respond. He quickly drew a picture with a brush and threw it on the bed. At the same time, he put on the cloak of invisibility and watched the change.

The door was gently opened, and Xiao Lou walked in.

The arched palace of the Mermaid Palace is surrounded by sea water, and there are many colorful fish swimming outside, just like the real Atlantis underwater hotel.

Gui Yuanzhang held his breath, and saw that Xiao Lou walked to the bed where he was sleeping, and the silver cold glow of his fingertips flashed, and the “dummy” on the bed immediately stopped moving.

Gui Yuanzhang’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

His strongest cards are pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. In fact, these four cards can be used together. For example, with pen and paper, things drawn on paper with a brush can quickly become real objects. Like the legend of “Ma Liang, a magical brush,” what you paint will change. Although it can only last for 2 hours, it is enough to be fake.

Gui Yuan Zhang came from elementary school calligraphy and is also a master of art. He just drew a picture of himself with extremely fast hand speed, so the one lying on the bed at this time is actually the Gui Yuan chapter he drew.

Xiao Lou didn’t know how to faint the person on the bed. Then, Gui Yuanzhang saw him picking up the old man on the bed and turned around and walked out quickly. On weekdays, Xiao Lou, who was smiling and kind and gentle, had a pair of eyes that seemed to be quenched by ice, his eyes were terribly cold, and the smile when he raised the corners of his mouth made people shudder.

It’s hard to imagine Xiao Lou’s face with such a terrible expression.

Gui Yuanzhang kept holding his breath. After he left, the brush in his hand drew a wind-like trajectory. He went out quickly and came to Lao Mo’s residence with several turns.

Liu Qiao has been controlled, the second is him, and the third is definitely Lao Mo!

It was already more than two o’clock in the morning, and Mo Xuemin was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open. The vigilance developed in the closet made Mo Xuelin woke up immediately. He was about to take a weapon. Listen to the voice of Senior Gui: “Go, there is danger!”

Mo Xuemin didn’t have time to ask more questions, Gui Yuanzhang dragged him, and used a brush to draw an arc-shaped trajectory under his feet, and the two flew out of the residence like the wind.

As the elder of the mermaid tribe, Gui Yuanzhang knows a secret sea area where few tribesmen go. After they walked out of the mermaid palace, two long tails suddenly appeared behind them, and the two of them swam very fast behind a remote reef in the deep sea.

Surrounded by colorful corals, Lao Mo Wuxin admired the beauty of the deep sea, frightened and said: “Go to senior, what’s the situation? You suddenly pulled me out?”

Gui Yuanzhang asked, “I remember you had a daughter?”

Mo Xuemin was puzzled, but still replied: “My daughter only went to middle school. This is why I must find a way to go back. Her mother passed away very early, and she was my only relative.”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “Are all the cards here?”

Mo Xuemin: “It’s all here…what the hell is going on?”

Gui Yuanzhang confirmed that the Mo Xuemin in front of him was real, and summarized what Shao Qingge had said at an extremely fast speed.

Mo Xuemin’s face was ugly: “What? Copy people?!”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “The theme of this secret room is not the’investigating the shipwreck accident’ that Xiao Lou told us, but the gene duplication. The Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, Ye Qi, Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci we have seen before are all fake. Yes, the real teammates are all together now. They checked the clones and found the mermaid tribe, but they couldn’t swim and couldn’t get into the sea.”

Old Mo was dumbfounded: “Copy people? How can you be sure that they are real?”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “I told Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci about some childhood things. Only the three of us knew about it. We were all matched up just now. In addition, Zhen Xiaolou and Yu Hanjiang were together, and Shao Qingge just used it. I have a strong heart, Xiao Lou has been communicating with him all the time, and they have confirmed each other’s identities.”

Thinking of getting along with Xiao Lou these days, Mo Xuemin suddenly got a hairy spine: “No wonder! Professor Xiao said at the beginning that the card pack was lost, and Mr. Shao and Ye Qi did not have cards. I was wondering why my card pack was still missing. Was it? Did the gatekeeper pick someone to arrange the plot? Now it seems that the three of them are fake, and they have no cards in their hands, so they made up this excuse!”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “The fake Xiaolou just sneaked into my bedroom and got confused by the dummy I made. He will definitely go to your bedroom later. I also put a dummy on your bed, but, My magic brush Ma Liang only lasts for 2 hours. We are short on time and must find Liu Qiao within 2 hours.”

Mo Xuemin was shocked: “What happened to Liu Qiao?”

Gui Yuanzhang said: “Xiao Lou and the others connected Liu Qiao with their heart and soul. They were discovered by the fake Xiao Lou. He immediately controlled Liu Qiao. Now Liu Qiao is unconscious. Professor Xiao asks us to find her as soon as possible and get hers. [Mermaid Princess] card, only when all of them become mermaids can they go to sea to investigate.”

Mo Xuemin realized the seriousness of the matter, and his expression became extremely serious: “The Mermaid Palace is too big, Liu Qiao is definitely not in her own residence, we have to hurry up and look for it!”

Gui Yuanzhang nodded: “Well, this Mermaid Palace is actually a maze. We have all discovered these days. After several days of groping, have you figured out the route of the maze?”

Mo Xuemin smiled bitterly: “Senior looked at me very highly. This mermaid palace is the biggest maze I have ever encountered. It is about five times larger than the headless general’s tomb last week. I can only figure out half of it so far. Fortunately, the maze this time is not a three-dimensional multi-layer structure, and finding a way will be more convenient than a three-dimensional maze.”

Gui Yuan Zhang said: “It should not be too late. Look for Liu Qiao while looking for the road. After 2 hours, the dummy I made will be discovered. Not only will Xiao Liu be in danger, but the two of us will not escape!”
