Chapter 388 Noah
Chapter 388 Noah
The young man emerged from the shadows with a gentle smile on his face, as if he had simply been taking a nighttime stroll and had happened to encounter Lin Fan.
"Who are you?"
But Lin Fan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the other person.
In his memory, the other person was a complete stranger, and he had no recollection of them at all.
"Mr. Lin, you probably don't remember me at all."
My name is Noah.
The man adjusted his glasses, his smile unchanged.
"I recently became Dr. Helen's assistant."
"I wonder if Mr. Lin has come to the lab so late because he needs something from the doctor?"
Although the other person's tone was polite, it gave people a very distant feeling.
Furthermore, Lin Fan could faintly smell a scent on the other party, the same scent as the shadowy figure in the dark forest.
But he also noticed that the person in front of him didn't seem to be controlled by the shadow like the Hounds.
Moreover, deep within this person's eyes lay a certain wisdom and fervor.
Lin Fan stared at the other person for a long time, his gaze returning to normal, as if he hadn't noticed anything unusual. He then pointed to the door behind him:
Is Helen inside?
"Yes."
Noah nodded.
"The doctor is conducting a great experiment and it's not convenient to be disturbed."
"great?"
Hearing this answer, Lin Fan became even more certain of his guess.
Lin Fan chuckled and asked with interest,
"How great is that?"
Is it turning everyone in the base into living dead who sleep with their eyes open, or something else?
Lin Fan's words caused Noah's smile to falter slightly, but he quickly recovered and his gaze towards Lin Fan deepened.
"It seems you've already discovered it."
Far from panicking, he continued talking to himself, as if addressing Lin Fan, yet also seemingly speaking to himself.
"I've already told them that there's no way I could hide this from you."
"However, Mr. Lin, I need to correct your wording. Those people are not the living dead; you can call them the newborns."
"newborn?"
"Yes. New students."
Noah showed no embarrassment at being exposed; instead, he adjusted his glasses and said with a proud expression,
"We freed them from useless emotions and selfish desires, transforming them into a perfect collective capable of existing for a noble purpose. Isn't this a new species?"
How to get rid of useless emotional desires?
Is that even human?
Lin Fan looked at Noah with the same expression he had when looking at a madman.
He originally thought that those people had simply had their bodies or minds invaded by something, but he never expected that they had actually been modified.
"So, all of this was your doing?"
"We were just following the guidance of 'Mother'."
Noah's tone became devout.
"It was you who brought the seed of 'mother' here, guiding us to our place."
"Mother?"
Upon hearing this answer, Lin Fanzhi felt his mind go blank for a moment.
Immediately, an utterly absurd thought came to mind.
"What is the mother you're talking about? That sapling?"
"Mother is the origin of life, the collection of consciousness, and the direction of the future."
However, upon hearing his question, Noah, like that old charlatan Domingo, spread his arms wide and said with a fanatical expression,
"It did not create monsters like the Black Forest, but chose a gentler, more perfect way to become one with us."
"It grants us a unified will, freeing us from strife, jealousy, and fear. We share knowledge, we share perception, we... are immortal!"
Good guy!
He really is a charlatan!
Although he didn't know if the other party could live forever, he was very clear at this moment...
He had actually sown the seeds of disaster himself.
Although he didn't know if Noah was telling the truth, based on the information he provided, he deduced that the sapling was not only strange, but also possessed some kind of mind-controlling hive consciousness!
And without his knowledge, it had already affected the survivors of the nuclear power plant.
Lin Fan has never been a selfless person.
He was even a bit petty.
Nowadays, a portion of their own population has been unknowingly poached... This...
They're completely disregarding him!
"So what is your goal now? Are you trying to stop me? Or are you trying to kill me?"
As he spoke, Lin Fan's gaze towards the other person gradually became dangerous.
No, no.
Seeing this, Noah waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile,
"Please don't misunderstand, we love peace and have no intention of being your enemy."
If possible, we'd even like to be your friend and invite you…”
"Inviting me?"
Lin Fan looked at the other person strangely.
"Yes."
Seeing his gaze soften, Noah's eyes burned again.
"We understand you."
We know you possess the power to destroy the world, while we possess the ability to unify the world's will.
You are the ultimate destruction, we are the beginning of order.
Imagine how perfect it would be if your power could be guided by an absolutely rational and absolutely unified will.
"We no longer need to fear any disaster, because we can become the disaster itself, or we can become the god who controls the disaster."
"You and us are beings that are born to coexist."
? ? ? ?
Noah's words left Lin Fan speechless.
He looked at the man before him, who resembled a fanatical "believer," and then thought about his own talent that would cause chaos after his death.
One is responsible for physical deliverance, and the other for spiritual ascension.
In terms of business, they actually seem to complement each other quite well.
But what exactly do you mean by "mastering"?
Are you planning to take me under your control?
"So... you still intend to control me?"
