IUD-CHAPTER 142 REASON

This is a dimly lit room.

The room is very spacious but lacks much light. Only a series of sophisticated instruments provide some light sources in the room, preventing it from being completely dark.

Within this dimly lit room are several culture tanks filled with liquid.

All these culture tanks are active, and the liquids inside them are boiling like a heated pot.

However, each culture tank is connected by test tubes that lead to the deepest part of the room, ultimately leading to a massive culture tank that connects the ceiling and the floor. The liquid inside it gradually changes color.

This scene is somewhat eerie until a certain moment when the door of the dimly lit room suddenly moved.

"Clang, Clang, Clang, Clang—!"

Accompanied by a series of slashing sounds, the door burst open with white cracks, cut into countless pieces by a sharp object.

"Bang—!"

In the next moment, the door burst open, allowing the light from outside to illuminate the entire room.

"Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep—!"

Inside the room, the red alarm lights activated and blared, casting a continuous red glow throughout the space.

Soon, a figure walked slowly into the room from outside the door, arriving at this room and witnessing the situation.

The newcomer was naturally Fang Li.

As he entered this dimly lit room, Fang Li surveyed the culture tanks filled with boiling liquid one by one and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"It's like an underground laboratory."

In fact, this place could indeed be considered an underground laboratory. At least, the research conducted here was secretive enough to warrant all the security, and there were people responsible for it.

Fang Li walked into the laboratory, passing by each culture tank, and proceeded toward the deepest part of the room.

"Bang—!"

Just then, a loud sound came from behind Fang Li.

It came from the direction of the entrance.

Surprisingly, a new door suddenly descended, sealing off the room that Fang Li had previously damaged upon his entry.

Fang Li's footsteps faltered for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened, going deeper into the room.

It wasn't until he reached the massive culture tank that Fang Li finally stopped in his tracks. Then, Fang Li stared at the changing color of the culture tank, completely at a loss for words.

"So that's how it is…" Fang Li exclaimed, and it was as if he had finally unraveled all the mysteries.

"So this is why Aphrodite is so determined to attack the Russian Branch."

Inside the massive culture tank, there were a pair of arms.

The arms were pure white, smooth, and exuded a delicate and fragile beauty, resembling a woman's graceful hands.

As Fang Li looked at these arms, he recalled Aphrodite's characteristics.

Aphrodite, also known as Venus, the Greek goddess of love, is famously depicted as a statue of a beautiful woman missing her arms.

And this Deusphage Species Aragami, named after her, also lacked arms so Fang Li had always believed that Aphrodite had been armless from the beginning.

However, Fang Li was mistaken.

Not only Fang Li was wrong, but also everyone in the world who knew about Aphrodite's existence.

"Aphrodite does not lack arms at all; its arms are right here."

Therefore, in order to reclaim its arms, Aphrodite launched a massive attack without hesitation.

"I should have realized something like this earlier."

You see, Aphrodite's ability is to release unique hormones that attract and manipulate Aragami. On the day Fang Li was framed during his mission, the modified Aragami landmine he possessed was injected with a hormone that attracts Aragami.

Where that hormone came from is now beyond question.

"These arms are the root of all the evil that is happening right now."

As soon as Fang Li said these words, a voice of opposition immediately emerged.

"How can you say that? It is innocent, you know?"

This voice suddenly appeared in the room, clearly reaching Fang Li's ears.

However, Fang Li showed no surprised expression on his face at all. He simply looked at the enormous culture tank and spoke indifferently.

"Since you have been here all along, stop hiding like a mole."

As soon as his words fell, that voice started to sound as if laughing.

"I haven't been hiding. As you said, I have been here since the beginning."

With these words, a person dressed in military uniform gradually walked out of the shadow beside the enormous culture tank, coming to the front, facing Fang Li.

The person is Captain, who is behind all of this.

"I thought the infiltrator was someone from the First Unit, but I never expected it to be an insolent soldier like you." The captain sneered and said, "You're quite lucky to be alive. Alisa-Illinichina-Amiella must have saved you, right?"

"You can think that way if you want." Fang Li answered the captain's question with an indifferent tone, then asked with a half-smile, "Should I address you as Captain or Mr. Rollins Wright?"

Hearing this question, the captain named Rollins Wright smiled nonchalantly as he spoke. "It seems you have understood a lot of information from the terminal. Call me whatever you like."

Saying that, Rollins Wright spread his arms as if showcasing something and asked a question.

"How about it? Isn't it beautiful?"

Rollins Wright was naturally referring to the arms immersed in the culture tank.

"It has been 10 years, but it has maintained this appearance all along. Although I've made efforts to maintain it, it seems unnecessary. It has the characteristic of not decaying or disappearing, so it has always been this beautiful."

Rollins Wright's tone was full of pride as he spoke of this.

"Those who know of its existence like to call it 'Alpha' as a code name, but I prefer to call it by another name, Eros."

"Although it is clearly a part of Aphrodite's body, you insist on giving it another name, and it happens to be the name of Aphrodite's son, Eros." Fang Li shrugged and said, "Don't you think it's a little redundant?"

"Redundant?" Rollins Wright suddenly laughed.

However, there was no trace of amusement in Rollins Wright's eyes, only endless anger. That expression was like that of a fanatical devotee whose faith had been desecrated.

"You don't understand anything at all." Saying these words, Rollins Wright reached for a gun and aimed it at Fang Li and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
