Chapter 2410 Hidden Dangers and Changes
“Sister Peixi…”
Ji Xiaoge, who immediately spread his wings to cover Yaya inside, gave a bitter smile and said helplessly: “You start The lights turned on too suddenly!”
“Sorry.”
Peixi casually apologized to everyone who was flashed. Even if it is simply explained: "This is a simple method to prevent accidental triggering. It will only be activated if it is triggered continuously in a short period of time. This method was very popular twenty centuries ago, until the Alchemist Association developed [ It was gradually eliminated after knowing the bricks. Well... in short, let’s check this [Observation Hall] first.”
After realizing that no one was interested in the topic of the Alchemist Association and [Brick Recognition], Pexi did not continue to popularize science. He just calmly put on a pair of gloves for himself and took the lead to go to those who were working on the restoration of lighting equipment. The corpse has more visual impact.
"Thank you, Sister Yege."
At the same time, Yaya also got out from under Ji Xiaoge's wings, and patted the latter's shoulder with a smile. Mo Tan and others were relieved to find that the girl did not smell, touch or lick her body, but crossed her arms and crossed her legs. Sitting in front of a bunch of humanoid creatures, he muttered: "It should be an elf... uh... human? Or a half-elf... no, it is more like an elf..."
Ji Xiaoge Changshu He took a breath and whispered to Mo Tan: "Ya Ya is very serious about his work!"
"Yes, although it seems that the efforts are in the wrong direction."
Mo Tan shrugged and said that what Peixi wanted to investigate would probably not be what race these corpses were before they were alive, how old they were when they died, whether they were male or female, but something that would allow everyone to get to know the essence of this ancient ruins. something.
To put it bluntly, it is still their identity, affiliation and research projects.
"I'm not very good at this. Let's go to Sister Peixi first and ask if there is anything we can do to help."
Ji Xiaoge blinked at Mo Tan, He resisted the urge to get a little intimate with the other person, gave him an extra sweet smile, and then fluttered his wings and flew to Pei Xi's side.
“I also have to watch that guy Pexi, at least I can’t let her stew the body or anything.”
Largo sighed, made a rather shocking complaint, then turned to Gu Xiaole and smiled: "It shouldn't be dangerous at the moment. Since you, Miss Xiaole, are also in this business, why don't we investigate together? I can protect Peixi by myself.”
I originally thought. Gu Xiaole, who wanted to continue to protect Peixi personally, touched her chin, and after a moment of consideration, she nodded and agreed to Largo's proposal. Although she felt that her status as a 'college student majoring in archeology' outside the game might be of little use, but she Maybe Onmyoji's talents can help a little bit.
And...
You can also observe someone's 'online dating boyfriend' by the way, and help check it in a real sense!
“Yo, Mo-chan!”
So, Gu Xiaole walked briskly up to Mo Tan, who was standing next to a relatively complete corpse, with his eyes lowered and contemplating something. He patted him hard on the shoulder and said cheerfully: "I didn't expect you to see this. He looks like a sports student, but he is quite professional in observing cultural relics!"
Mo Tan was stunned for a moment, then reacted for half a second before saying in a dumbfounded voice: "The corpses here shouldn't be considered serious. It's a cultural relic, and I'm just standing here looking at it Now, why does Sister Xiaole think I’m professional?”
“I’m just looking for something to talk about. Now that the topic is open, don’t worry about those details.”
Gu Xiaole smiled, and then. Then he stood with his hands behind his hands. Next to Tan, he looked at the other person with interest and asked: "So, putting aside professionalism and so on, did Mojiang see anything?"
"There are only some superficial contents. That’s all.”
Mo Tan knelt down and carefully looked at the human body on the ground that had lost its legs, looked frightened and was still dead, and said after careful consideration: "First of all, most of these people died at the hands of humanoid creatures, and there were not many of them. , but it has an overwhelming advantage in terms of strength, Although he has no weapons, he is able to kill these staff members wearing standard uniforms with his bare hands, and... does not seem to have much rationality..."
Gu Xiaole's eyes widened in surprise, and he said curiously: "How did you figure it out? Are you a forensic doctor? "
"Of course not."
Mo Tan laughed dumbly and explained: "It's just some experience gained during the game. I only mentioned the conclusion because the process of inference is more complicated. It’s okay if it’s limited to the realm of thinking, but if it’s expressed in vernacular It’s a bit difficult.”
Gu Xiaole nodded and said, “I understand, I understand! It’s just because you are good at fighting, so you can see how these corpses were beaten like this! What else did you find? ”
"What's more obvious is that the researchers here vary in terms of strength, but without exception they are all killed without any resistance. This shows that the perpetrators are very powerful."
< br>After a brief analysis from the perspective of combat, Mo Tan reached out and gently poked the back of the corpse's hand, and said softly: "Other than that, I don't think there is any reason for the decay of these corpses. It's because they ingested a large amount of toxins that were not targeted at them before they died, but caused their bodies to become incorruptible due to some combination of circumstances."
"Toxins?"
Gu Xiaole became more and more curious and asked: "What toxin?"
"It should be a paralyzing toxin refined from a basilisk or similar monster."
Because the character 'Tanmo' has a lot of research on alchemy, and during his time in Academy City, he even personally played the role of the lizard-man potion long ago known as [The Poison of the King of Medicine], who was proficient in the use of various poisons. Shiharu Kutata, so they are both Mo Tan’s silent Naturally, he also knew the relevant knowledge well and explained very carefully: "Those toxins with petrochemical properties not only have the effect of 'strong paralysis', but also have various effects such as analgesia, hypnosis, and hardening. And if it is ingested by a corpse whose mysterious resistance has been reset to zero, then Its 'petrification' quality will give the corpse an effect similar to 'immortality'. If the dose is large enough, it can even make the corpse incorruptible for thousands of years."
...
' Among the tributaries of the Amazon, there is a boiling river. It is the largest hot river on earth. Because it is close to the geothermal magma, it has a water temperature of nearly 100 degrees. Although this temperature makes it almost lifeless, it is the sacred river of the Ashaninka people, and they often offer sacrifices. Worship this river...'
【? ! 】
Suddenly realizing that this was not the toy room of Yidong’s family, nor was it more than ten years ago, or even reality at all. Gu Xiaole subconsciously clenched her little hands and rubbed her eyes several times before looking. The half-dragon boy in front of Qing was a half-dragon boy, not the little boy who had a childlike voice and carried an unknown science program on his back in order to reassure his fearful self.
"Sister Xiaole?"
Noticing that the other party was a little distracted, Mo Tan immediately stood up and asked with concern: "How is the situation? Have you suffered any negative status? Do you need me to remind everyone to pay attention?"< br>
“Huh? No, no, no.”
< br>Subconsciously taking two steps back, Gu Xiaole desperately waved to Mo Tan to indicate that he was fine, and then said with a guilty conscience: "It's just that... I was a little distracted. What did you say about the Ashaninka people just now?"
"Ashaninka?"
Mo Tan was stunned for a moment and hesitated: "Are you talking about the Indian tribe in the eastern Amazon rainforest?" "Ah, no, I mean the petrified poison!"
Gu Xiaole immediately She changed her words and asked loudly: "So these corpses are poisoned?"
Perhaps because her voice was a little too loud, everyone turned their heads to look here, curiously waiting for Mo Tan to explain the corpses relationship with intoxication.
"Uh...actually what I mean is that these toxins may be special measures taken by these staff members when they are attacked, in order to suppress those particularly powerful killers."
Mo Tan scratched his cheek in embarrassment and said bravely under the gaze of everyone: "The result is that at least in this [observation hall], there is not a single paralyzed massacrer, but these corpses are in There is no sign of corruption after a long time, so I think... it may be that they tried every means to resist but still failed, and finally lost their mysterious resistance at the point of death and were poisoned by the toxin originally used to suppress the murderer. erosion will become He looks like this now."
"So handsome——"
Ji Xiaoge was the first to express his opinion, staring at his sweetheart with a pair of beautiful almond eyes: "Although I don't quite understand, But so handsome!”
"Mo, help me look at this lump in front of me!"
Ya Ya, who was already sitting on the ground and started playing with his tail, waved lazily and said, "Come on, come on. Well.”
Jadeka was extremely proud, but very reserved, smacking his lips, shaking his head and sighing: "I don't know where this kid learned it from..."
"That's awesome, Brother Mo. ."
Wang Ba Dan From the base station behind him, Klaus's somewhat resentful voice came: "Why didn't I think of that? I've obviously seen information about petrochemical toxins!"
Largo was haha. He smiled and gave Mo Tan a thumbs up.
“Interested in joining the Society of Archaeologists?”
Peixi extended an invitation to Mo Tan concisely. It was hard to tell whether he was joking or serious: "I can be your introducer."
"Thank you, everyone."
Mo Tan smiled bitterly and shook his head, raised his hands in surrender and said, "I was just thinking I found out about this type of toxin by chance, and I just tried to come up with an idea. "
"A very good idea."
Pexy nodded slightly. He affirmed: "Because I think so too."
Largo poked her shoulder lightly and complained: "Be more reserved."
"My being reserved does not conflict with my excellence."
Pexy didn't look back. He patted Largo's hand away, then motioned for everyone to gather around him, Yan Jian He said thoughtfully: "Although there is still time, I'm afraid we have to withdraw temporarily."
Ya shook his ears and asked casually: "Why?"
" Because the situation has become a bit dangerous.”
Peixi glanced at Yaya and said calmly: "As Mo just said, the reason why the corpses of these researchers did not decay is probably because they tried to protect themselves and suppress the enemy...or some unexpected toxin did not act. The effect is too great, and in the end it turns them into It looked like this, and what’s worth noting is that we didn’t find any traces of those killers here.”
Ji Xiaoge trembled with his arms crossed, and said in a panic: “Wait a minute! Sister Xi, you don't mean... those murderers with extremely cruel techniques are still alive, right? !”
“The possibility is not high, but it is not zero.”
Pei Xi gave a slightly ambiguous answer and looked up at the objects on the walls around the [Observation Hall]. Massively cracked black crystals: “Combining these long-obsolete media with [ With the name "Observation Hall", it is not difficult for us to guess the purpose of this place, and if we are bolder and assume that the beings being observed are Slayers... the purpose of this facility may not be difficult to imagine. "
< br>For a while, everyone’s faces became a little ugly.
Obviously, as long as Pei Xi's hypothesis is combined with the fact that this ruins has no traces of affiliation, this is undoubtedly a very shady place. In addition, before Mo Tan's "slaughterer is likely to be a humanoid creature" Speculation——
This is most likely a place for research on taboos. Since there is the word 'taboo', it means that the research projects are mostly related to 'human relations' and 'morality'. The words have nothing to do with each other, or even completely contradictory.
I have to admit that in the worldview of [Innocence Realm], this situation is actually not uncommon. For example, all believers of evil gods can almost be killed in every living sacrifice. In addition to this, there are also 'human body refinement', 'knowledge of the undead' and other knowledge that has no connection with humanity in most cases. These chaotic and evil behaviors are often performed around the world.
And here, it is very likely that it was the location of a large-scale inhumane experiment in the past. As for the relatively mild possibility of medical structures... I can't say there is no possibility, but it is somewhat self-deceiving.
“But even so, it should have been a long time ago.”
Jadeka stroked his beard and asked: "To this day, is it really possible that there is any serious threat here?"
"Why do you think it is impossible?"
Peixi pushed up her glasses and said softly : "Don't forget the reason why we are here."
"The reason?"
Jadeka rubbed his self-destructing walking stick and suddenly reacted: "That's it ——”
"Yes, the reason why we are here is because this ruins did not exist here before, but was suddenly detected before I settled here, and this means..."
"What changes occurred inside the ruins, so it was suddenly discovered today, right?"< br>
"That's right, so before we are not sure what the 'change' is, we must be cautious. Then - please listen to my command and leave the beacon while evacuating in an orderly manner. ”
