Arenât You All Supposed to Be Dead?
âLetâs go, while theyâre still in shock. Weâll enter the headquarters first. Maybe besides recovering our memories, we can find a way to deal with them,â Luo Sheng said, glancing at Alice and Katerina with undisguised excitement on his face.
The Alliance headquarters might be hiding some big secrets. There was always an exhilarating feeling about peeking into the worldâs mysteries.
âAlright,â Katerina nodded.
Alice, meanwhile, dismantled the Storm Mech.
Luo Sheng stored it back in the Azure Feather Wood Shift.
The three of them hurried towards the Alliance headquarters.
âŚ
At that moment.
A massive building resembling the Burj Khalifa stood at the center of Sky City.
The base of the Alliance headquarters was a giant scallop-shaped platform, reminiscent of the Sydney Opera House. At the center of this enormous base rose a high tower.
The magnificent glass curtain wall gleamed brilliantly in the sunlight, as if forged from gold, yet also exuding a sci-fi atmosphere.
It was visible from afar.
This was the Alliance headquarters, the center of the city, and the symbol of the Allianceâs power.
The three didnât stop to admire the building.
Instead, they avoided layers of surveillance cameras and patrol teams.
They arrived at a hidden entrance.
Katerina said, âThis requires internal personnel credentials, plus iris scanning. Let me try to dismantle it.â
As she spoke, she pulled out a dagger from her lower leg.
She was about to pry open the systemâs keypad and scanning device.
Luo Sheng told her, âNo need for such trouble, I have a way.â
âYou have internal personnel credentials?â Katerina looked puzzled.
Luo Sheng took out a white card. The card emitted a faint glow, and then the door suddenly lit up with a green light.
The iris scan showed passed, internal personnel identity verification passed.
âWelcome to the headquarters,â came the emotionless voice of the door lock.
Luo Sheng smiled at Katerina, âItâs that simple.â
Katerinaâs expression was quite complex.
She hadnât expected Luo Sheng to easily bypass these door locks. The Alliance headquarters had extremely high-level security measures, and various credentials were required to enter.
âCome in,â Luo Sheng reminded them.
They cautiously followed Luo Sheng through the door lock and entered the interior of the Alliance headquarters.
A grand, advanced scene unfolded before their eyes. The internal structure was mostly metal walls and circuitry.
As they walked, the lights in the corridor automatically lit up. Although it was still daytime outside, the interior of the Alliance headquarters was very dim.
Lighting was essential.
âDo you know where they store your memories?â Luo Sheng suddenly looked at Alice and Katerina.
Because he didnât know the way either.
Alice and Katerina both shook their heads.
âSince we were modified, many of our memories have been lost. When we woke up, we were already in the warehouse,â Katerina said truthfully. âIâve only been to the Alliance headquarters once or twice.â
Luo Sheng folded his arms.Find the original chapter at novelping(.)com.
He looked perplexed.
âThis is troublesome. Weâll need to explore bit by bit, which will take more time.â
He hoped to finish this trip quickly.
After all, they were in the tigerâs den, facing danger at any moment. If the NASDAQ Group found out, they might surround the Alliance headquarters with the factoryâs guard force.
Then theyâd have to go through another big battle.
As the three of them were discussing how to find their target location.
A hidden room.
Suddenly, voices came from inside.
âDamn this group, for their own interests, they actually moved all the guards away.â
âWhat can you do about it? The entire Alliance is under their control.â
Luo Sheng and Alice, hearing these voices.
Originally prepared to hide.
But found that they had no intention of leaving the room.
So they quietly approached the room.
The two peopleâs conversation was clearly audible.
âThey canât just abandon the Alliance headquarters for their own interests, can they? The entire Alliance building is left with only 20 guards. They originally promised to leave us dozens of people.â
âHaving any is already not bad. And keep your voice down. If they hear you, even with your Alliance researcher status, theyâll still make an example of you.â
âHmph! If I had known, I wouldnât have unsealed these modified humans. After they got the data on these modified humans, they became even more arrogant, not taking our headquarters seriously at all.â
âCome on, do you still have the ability to resist?â
âI could refuse to give it to them.â
âBut could you refuse the price they offered?â
âI donât worry about food and drink, do I have to accept theirs?â
âIf you donât accept, your superiors will. Other people in the Alliance headquarters will accept too. So, no one cares about your feelings.â
âHmph! If I had known, I would have destroyed all these modified humans!â
At this moment, inside the room.
Two people wearing white coats and glasses were complaining in the room.
They spoke back and forth.
One looked quite angry, while the other looked as if he had seen through the world, showing an indifferent attitude.
Clearly, they were used to the NASDAQ Groupâs actions.
Just then.

The doorknob suddenly turned, and the room door was opened.
Both of them were stunned.
âYou didnât lock your door?â
âI remember I locked it.â
Both looked bewildered, wondering how it could be opened if they had locked it.
Luo Sheng slowly walked in from outside, wearing a gentle smile, âHello.â
The two researchers in white coats.Enjoying the story? Read on at novelping . com.
Looked at him with complex expressions, âAre you someone sent by the group to threaten us?â
Luo Sheng smiled and said, âNo, no, no, Iâm not one of them. My purpose here is simple, to help them recover their lost memories.â
As he spoke, he gestured for Alice and Katerina to come in together.
They stood on his left and right.
Luo Sheng continued, âYou should recognize these two, right? Theyâre both modified humans, and I heard from outside that you are Alliance researchers.â
He spoke with a gentlemanly smile.
But his eyes were squinting at them.
The two white-coated researchers, seeing Alice and Katerina, looked even more peculiar.
âHow did they come back?â
âI thought they were abandoned by the group?â
The two white-coated researchers said in disbelief.
Luo Sheng explained briefly, âI rescued them, and now Iâve brought them back home to find their memories.â
âAre you rebels?â
One white-coated researcher asked suspiciously.
âMm, in your view thatâs correct, but we have a real name, the Spark Organization.â
As Luo Sheng spoke, he walked towards them and patted their shoulders, âI need your help to find their memories. Of course, you can choose not to cooperate, but I might have to use some special methods.â
Suddenly, the two white-coated researchers felt something very cold on their necks.
A pair of golden scissors appeared on their necks.
They instantly felt their scalps tingle.
The cold metal sensation could take their lives at any moment. Immediately, they became flustered.
Sweat also appeared on their foreheads.
Luo Sheng put his hands behind his back again, âDonât worry, as long as you cooperate obediently, I wonât take your lives. Of course, I wonât let others know about this either.â
âThisâŚâ
âThis isnât goodâŚâ
The two white-coated researchers wanted to refuse, regardless of the danger, thinking that searching for memories would be very difficult.
But Luo Shengâs eyes turned cold, âI heard that you helped the NASDAQ Group use all the modified humans that the Alliance had sealed in warehouses. Do you still have any reason to refuse now?â
As he spoke.
Alice and Katerina glared at them fiercely.
If it werenât for these researchers.
They wouldnât have suffered so much. Alice was treated as a tool, discarded from Sky City after being used.
Katerina wouldnât have been used as a template for clones.
Or even as a killing weapon for the NASDAQ Group, discarded casually after use.
The two researchers were sweating profusely, especially when they saw Aliceâs murderous gaze. They realized their lives were no longer in their own hands.
âAlright, I can help you.â
