Chapter 695 Waking up to find himself imprisoned
Time passed slowly, but Bai Mianmian still showed no signs of waking up.
The butterfly-like insectoids watching from a distance still showed no intention of approaching.
In this eerily quiet atmosphere, a soft rustling sound began to emerge and was slowly approaching Bai Mianmian's direction.
Not long after, a hole suddenly appeared in the ground not far from Bai Mianmian, and then a yellowish-brown robot poked its head out of the hole.
It scanned left and right, and after confirming that there was no danger, its mechanical eye, equipped with a scanner, aimed at Bai Mianmian.
After confirming that she was still in a deep coma, he carefully crawled out of the hole and moved towards her step by step.
Bai Mianmian, who was lying there with her eyes closed, seemed to sense something and her brows furrowed slightly, but she still showed no signs of waking up.
The robot quickly stopped beside Bai Mianmian, then took out a metal collar with a faint blue glow from its storage compartment and slowly put it around her neck.
With a click, the metal collar lit up with a blinding red light.
Inside the underground monitoring room on the west side.
Seeing that the power suppression ring had been successfully placed around Bai Mianmian's neck, the three people in the monitoring room couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The guard captain, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly heard the exhalations of the two people beside him, and his expression changed drastically.
He immediately put on a stern face and scolded irritably, "Look at you all, so spineless! What's there to be afraid of about a woman?"
"?!" The man with the droopy eyebrows and the man with the mole on the tip of his nose were both stunned by the sudden reprimand, staring blankly at him.
Just now, they clearly heard the captain breathe a huge sigh of relief, so why did he turn around and start scolding them?
The guard captain glanced at Bai Mianmian, who was still unconscious on the screen, and said with disdain, "Isn't she still under the suppression ring? Hmph, once she wears this thing, no matter how strong she is, she's just a little bug that can be manipulated by others."
The man with the droopy eyebrows and the man with the mole on the tip of his nose exchanged a glance, then lowered his head and remained silent.
The robot stretched out its mechanical arm, picked up the white cotton on the ground, and turned back to the cave entrance it had just come out of.
After a while, a group of miniature robots, each the size of a soccer ball, suddenly emerged from the hole where the robots and Bai Mianmian had long since disappeared.
They darted across the ground, deftly picking up the scattered crystal cores.
They can even nimbly climb onto the corpses of the butterfly insectoids and precisely extract the crystal cores hidden inside their bodies.
After a long time, the butterfly insectoids who had been watching from afar seemed to realize that the danger had really disappeared. Some of the bolder butterfly insectoids rushed out to compete with the robots for the crystal cores on the ground.
After seeing that some Butterfly Zerg had successfully snatched the crystal core without being killed by the elusive mushroom, the other Butterfly Zerg immediately couldn't resist rushing up to grab the crystal core as well.
The battlefield, which was originally only occupied by robots collecting crystal cores, has once again turned into a chaotic battle.
……
Bai Mianmian was taken by the robot to a windowless, pure white room.
In the center of the room was a hospital bed with a cold metallic sheen, and a row of sophisticated instruments of unknown purpose were displayed on the wall.
The robot gently placed her on the hospital bed, then used a scanner to perform a full-body scan on her. After confirming that she would not wake up in the short term, it removed the space button and wedding ring from her fingers before turning and leaving.
The white door slowly closed behind the robot, blending seamlessly with the surrounding cold white walls. At first glance, there was no trace of a door that had ever been there.
Meanwhile, Bai Mianmian, lying on the hospital bed, was quietly relaxing her slightly furrowed brows.
Inside the monitoring room.
Upon seeing Bai Mianmian locked in the room, the captain of the guard's apprehension vanished completely. That room was constructed from the hardest alloy currently available; even if she woke up now, even if the ability suppression circle suddenly malfunctioned, she would never be able to escape.
"I'll report this to the doctor." The guard captain glanced arrogantly at the man with the bushy eyebrows and the man with the mole on the tip of his nose, his tone carrying an unquestionable command, and said, "You... just keep on your posts."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving the two of them looking at each other with bitter expressions.
Both of them understood that the captain of the guard's words were a warning to them not to try to steal credit or share his credit.
Bai Mianmian was awakened by a series of slight tremors. When she opened her eyes, she was met with a cold white that stung her eyes.
In that instant, something seemed to happen to her, and the murderous intent surging in her eyes could scare a coward to death.
Her inner power surged forth, and a powerful aura emanated from Bai Mianmian, causing even the air to subtly distort in its path.
But just then, the metal collar around her neck flashed red and tightened around her throat, sending a wave of numbness through her body.
That familiar feeling of oppression!
Bai Mianmian's eyes narrowed, and she immediately shut off her superpowers, sitting up abruptly.
But what she saw was not that familiar instrument that disgusted her.
However, those unfamiliar, sophisticated instruments did bear some resemblance to those she had seen in the apocalypse. But the level of precision they possessed far surpassed that of the apocalypse, making her certain that this was definitely not the apocalyptic world she had known before.
Therefore, Jiang Ci is a real person.
Bai Mianmian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She had just thought that her arrival in interstellar space and her encounter with Jiang Ci were hallucinations caused by someone drugging her, or illusions created by some psychic. Fortunately, none of that was true.
The vibrations that woke Bai Mianmian were still going on, but now they were much stronger than before.
This kind of vibration, to be honest, is quite familiar to Bai Mianmian.
It was the vibration caused by the explosion.
So a violent riot is taking place in this unknown laboratory.
There shouldn't be anyone coming here right now.
Bai Mianmian looked around but didn't find any doors. Instead, she saw a surveillance camera on the ceiling.
Meanwhile, the man with the slanted eyebrows and the man with the mole on the tip of his nose in the monitoring room were busy monitoring the riots in other places and relaying enemy information to the people fighting in time. They did not notice that Bai Mianmian had woken up.
Bai Mianmian couldn't find the exit, and she wasn't in a hurry to get down. She raised her hand, wanting to touch the metal collar around her neck, but suddenly noticed something was wrong with her hand.
Where is her wedding ring?!
The space button for the middle finger is also missing!
She was quite certain that she still had her wedding ring and spatial button on her hand when she fought the Butterfly Zerg.
So, it was the person who locked her up here who took her wedding ring and spatial key!
Bai Mianmian quickly searched for the other two spatial buttons hidden on her body, and thankfully they were still there.
But at this moment, a terrifying killing intent flashed in her eyes, and even the air around her seemed to grow colder.
After a while, she raised her hand with an icy expression, her fingertips gently touching the gleaming metal collar around her neck. The hard, cold touch beneath her fingertips deepened the chill in her eyes.
Labs, superpower suppression zones... these researchers, no matter where they are, only resort to such despicable tactics; it's truly disgusting.
