Judging from how the Virgin Mary acted, she didn’t seem like someone who would appreciate music.
Peter walked with his feet as close to the ground as possible. This allowed him to reduce any interfering noises so that he could hear the continuous sound.
As Peter got closer to the source of the sound, he finally understood what the voice was saying. It was not a rap at all, but a miserable moan. He had seen this situation on the island before. When the sharp fangs of the giant snake tore open the abdomen of a student from the Genetics College, the Genetics College student died from the extreme pain with a miserable moan.
After confirming the location of the voice ahead, Peter began to speed up. In less than a minute, he arrived in front of a building that looked like a laboratory as he held the lighting system.
This was a space surrounded by a glass wall. The glass wall was not very thick, and one could vaguely see the situation inside. There were various unknown instruments inside, and the tragic moans from before were coming from inside.
The door to the laboratory was also made of glass and had no password lock. Thus, Peter walked over and pushed open the glass door.
The moment he pushed the door open and entered, a pungent smell entered his nostrils. It smelled like the rotten smell of a corpse, mixed with the smell of disinfectant.
Peter first looked at the laboratory platform. There was a man lying on it. This man’s body was curled up, and his entire body was trembling violently. He was like a naked person lying in the wilderness in the cold winter, relying on his thin body to resist the cold.
However, Peter knew that although the light in this space was dim, the air was relatively dry and did not feel humid or cold. Thus, the twitching man on the platform must have experienced something very painful.
The sound of Peter opening the door alerted the man on the platform. He endured the pain and looked slightly up in the direction of the door. When he saw that the figure that appeared was a tall man, his hands, which had been wrapped around his shoulders, began to wave in the air as he spoke indistinct words.
“Turn it off. Turn… turn it off!”
Peter’s gaze followed the direction the man was pointing. There was a device that looked like a liquid delivery device behind the platform. Two pipes extended from the device, and the ends of the pipes were connected to the spinal column of the man on the platform. A yellow liquid was constantly being transported into the man’s body from afar.
This was the astonishing scene that Peter saw as he walked around the platform. He didn’t know what yellow liquid was for, but from the man’s pained expression, he could guess that this yellow liquid was very stimulating to the body.
However, the next moment, after Peter reached out to turn off the device, he realized that his guess was wrong. What caused the man’s pain was not the yellow liquid that had been injected into his body, but the two tubes that had been inserted into the man’s spinal column.
It was only when Peter leaned down that he could see the situation clearly. The ends of the two metal pipes were connected to the man’s spinal column. He reached out to separate the junction between the pipe and the man’s skin, and briefly determined that the end of the pipe had been inserted into the depths of the man’s spinal column.
This was the same as what Anna had previously encountered. The only difference was that Anna had been parasitized by an insect in her spinal column, while the spinal column of the man in front of him was connected to the pipe.
It should be known that the nerve center was inside the spinal column. Thus, if the internal structures of the spinal column were damaged, the pain was not something that an ordinary person could withstand.
