Chapter 280 The Essence of Spell
When I turn the next page, instead of an anatomical drawing, I see some familiar patterns.
Countless hexagons cover the entire paper, even beyond the edge, and are smeared onto adjacent pages. The extended lines seem to be dense rays of light, or long swimming whiskers and webs, occupying the field of vision.
"We were standing in the dark, and there was a loud sound of water in front of us, but those sounds became clearer and clearer as the light came on, and then I saw that thing." The hand holding the pen was shaking slightly, making the words jump irregularly With.
"No, I didn't see it, but I did 'see' it, down there."
Countless thoughts exploded in his mind, forming a large number of sentences full of adjectives, which were then crossed out and blacked out. He got the answer, understood something, and seemed to understand nothing.
The glimpse of the giant thing changes the mind completely. Its image swims from the water into the mind and takes up all the space in this limited spiritual world.
In the pale light, he felt that the implant under his skin had become a medium for him to connect and resonate with it, transmitting pure information without the need for translation.
【Pain】
That feeling seemed to have been imprisoned for countless years in a place as thin as paper. The hot pain was like high heat conducted along the metal, melting the wax of consciousness into a flowing shapeless object, injecting it into a new mold, and shaping it into a new look. Just as its fragments reshape the biological form.
As one's own pain resonates with that extreme and prolonged pain, derivatives of that pain are also given to the recipient.
It was a strong desire to tear away the present world and return to somewhere.
This pain-derived desire, catalyzed by the inherent properties of the implant, transformed into an unheard of phenomenon.
The space tore like a canvas, creating a long, sharp tear.
In the close contact and resonance, he shared the will of existence and a little bonus.
The so-called miraculous repair effect is only the most superficial effect of the fragments, which solves the temporary pain on the body.
But the pain is endless. Even if some of it can be solved through surgical advances today, it is still a drop in the bucket, because living with consciousness residing in the body is the greatest pain in this world.
And he has learned the ultimate solution - to join its return until it reaches the source that is not of this world.
"I understand." He no longer had any doubts, like a staunch believer who had received an oracle, convinced that the great deeds of all eternity would be completed by his own hands.
The leader of the small group, his beloved guide smiled with satisfaction, came forward to hug him, and welcomed him as a real new member.
"We will cure every sickness, and we are the righteous who walk on the earth."
The author put aside the surgical problems and returned to the anatomy work. The new anatomical atlas was updated daily in the booklet.
A large number of paradoxical structures have been recorded. They are like secondary creations based on the human body, with undue parts added to the original basis.
In a figure marked as an adult male, Craft saw fifteen thoracic vertebrae and seven lumbar vertebrae. The five extra vertebrae formed a new physiological curvature, which appeared to be extremely flexible.
The corresponding rib cage is elongated, and the left lung in the rib cage has a horizontal split outside the oblique split, giving it an extra lobe. The diaphragm is overdeveloped, indicating that he may use abdominal breathing to compensate for the limited respiratory muscle capacity after lung capacity expansion.
Some structures regress, returning to a state of growth and development, which also means they are more unstable.
If this is still an indication of what it is, some of it has reached the point of being completely unreasonable, almost a pure mixture of tissues, and anything can be found in it, as well as fragments of that kind.
The dark and pale fragments were the same as those implanted under his skin. As for the source, he called it "sent up from below". Most of them are in a state where "it is difficult to tell the time of death". They have been dead for a long time, but they maintain their basic form and toughness.
Coupled with the high toughness of soft tissue that adapts to structural changes, specially customized equipment is required for treatment.
After a large number of dissections, several general conclusions were drawn: First, this fragment has good compatibility with the human body and will not cause inflammation or necrosis at the implant site like other foreign bodies. Instead, it will promote growth.
The second conclusion is that the fundamental purpose of all manifestations of this thing is to facilitate proliferation and aggregation. Depending on the needs, it will have two states: one is to develop the existing anatomical structure so that it can perform higher-intensity activities to ensure survival. It is difficult to imagine what this trend will eventually look like.
The second is to quickly drain away water and some vitality when the host dies, forming an amorphous mass of primitive biomass around itself, waiting for the opportunity to grab new nutrients like an embryo that preys on itself.
This is the most suitable time for proliferation and aggregation. It will directly assimilate the creatures it comes into contact with into itself and grow infinitely.
In addition, the record repeatedly mentions "attempts made by predecessors" and praises them as excellent verification. A group of people much earlier than them tried to gain unnatural power from it, left this ruins, and gave this pale fragment a name:
【Moon Skeleton】
At first, they thought that the legacy of their predecessors had been buried with them in coffins. It was not until several cases of disappearances of sample collectors that they realized that they were not the only ones moving around here.
The trouble is, as their activity increases, the best of previous attempts is becoming more and more active.
He tried to use the method of creating cracks to deal with it, but soon realized that cutting was useless against something without a fixed form. Instead, it would stimulate it to actively start hunting to a certain extent.
That accident killed nearly half of the people who were active in the maze, and it finally stopped in front of the corridor.
Due to various considerations, they finally decided not to remove this thing. If necessary, they could even use high-intensity "magic casting" to artificially lure it out and solve some of the troubles that came to their door.
Facts have proved that this is a bad idea. Overactivation of the ability directly causes the black salt embedded in the arm to inhibit tissue proliferation to directly melt into activated black liquid and flow backward along the vein to complete the cycle.
The extremely strong inhibitory effect directly leads to some physiologically suffocating reactions, including but not limited to bradycardia, respiratory depression, vascular smooth muscle relaxation leading to a sharp drop in relative blood volume, etc.
To put it simply, a person is already dead before the black liquid exerts its effect of pulling people into the deep layers, both spiritually and physically.
This also proves that their application is still in the basic stage and they have no understanding of the upper limit of their abilities.
But the trouble he caused before his death was real. In theory, the huge chaotic thing could swallow any armed force within the scope of common sense.
Until the last part of the note, he was still trying endlessly to find a balance in the amount of implants.
At present, he believes that the maximum load on the human body cannot exceed a "moon skeleton" the size of two fingers. If it is larger, it will directly lead to mental loss of control. This is based on the calculations of one of their colleagues who has gone further. He has some Haven't seen this guy for a while.
Others, including his mentor, have also left for a long time.
"When they go down, I will finish the cleaning work. I hope they succeed."
"We're a little late, but not too late. Let's find out what else they left behind." Kraft closed the book and stood there waiting for the others to disperse, then showed Green the black liquid collected from the incision. .
He used his special senses to scan the remains in front of him. There was no trace of the spiritual body inside, as if it had been completely consumed. "Good news, I seem to know the reason why the production of that magical anesthetic is so limited."
