Chapter 438 Two gentlemen and two ladies
Broken Star Sea, Crystal Cave, Naika.
The main body of the cave is located at a depth of 300 meters underground, and the height of the inner layers is also close to 300 meters.
The horizontal depth reaches several kilometers, the terrain is complex and the environment is harsh, and there are giant glowing water crystal pillars everywhere. There are even sharp white clumps in many places, and there is no place for feet.
However, the giant crystals that are invaluable to others, including the abundant silver and lead mines in the nearby mines, are not at all cared about.
Only the flowing water in the cave, which is full of countless germs, is the real treasure in the heart of the cave owner!
Ticking ticking
The deepest part of Crystal Cave is nearly a thousand meters underground, which is an active lava belt.
The surging heat will evaporate the water in the cave at any time, and it will slowly drip down again condensed into liquid in the relatively low temperature above the cave.
And who would have thought that with the gradual growth of this crystal mine, the water here has actually been circulating for half a million years.
And it is precisely because of the existence of these water droplets that the breathtaking giant crystal pillars with a length of more than ten meters are created, and this is also a breeding ground for germs!
However, not all places in the cave are extremely harsh.
The upper layer of Crystal Cave, a layered structure, is well ventilated with the outside world and there are not many crystal clusters growing in the cave. There are stone desks, experimental instruments, bookshelves, cabinets, and sample libraries with sufficient anti-corrosion treatment.
There is also a special protective witchcraft here to ensure that the outside air full of germs does not interact with it. Because even for the “Poison Epidemiology School” who specializes in studying various germs, the impact of unpredictable bacterial contamination on experiments is catastrophic.
At this time.
The “Mushroom Man” who is stationed on Naika Island is making a sample of bacteria here. The raw materials include: fungal conidia, sand, glass test tubes, and desiccant
The purpose is to ensure that the strains can be in a dormant state for a long time, without death, growth, pollution, reduction or loss of their excellent attributes, and thus prolong the use time.
As everyone knows, this tiny microbe is all too prone to genetic variation.
Normally, the longest method of preservation of strains is the “freeze-drying method”, which is to mix the bacterial liquid and skimmed milk powder to freeze-dry in a vacuum and store it in a dry environment of -80°C.
Different strains will also have their own best preservation methods, and there are always a lot of them.
However, in this era when experimental medicine has just started, it is far from that condition.
The “Toxic Epidemiology School” generally adopts the relatively simple “dry sand preservation method”, which can be stored below 4℃, but this method is not suitable for all strains.
So, although the work of preserving the samples has begun since they were discovered here, the natural treasure trove in the Crystal Cave below the laboratory is still precious to them.
rustling.
In front of a giant mushroom-like “mushroom man”, as if being grasped by an invisible hand, all kinds of materials automatically float up, like a peer In just a few breaths, a cloud can be made into a sample that can be kept for 18-20 years.
【innate talent class spell·power tentacles】
“Fungus” is ahead of everyone in the school. After completing the transformation of themselves, every fungal cell is his part. Each neuron is his brain and his body.
This also gave him a powerful and unpredictable spiritual power. With the help of the spore cloud that permeated the cave and the entire island outside, he could easily see everything in this space. .
Suddenly.
The sample was stagnant in the air, and the face of “Mushroom Man” with eyes and mouth but no practical use also changed slightly, showing the sudden waves in his heart.
“Someone is coming, not the three of them, nor is the crow a complete stranger!”
As if remembering something, “Fungus” turned around quickly.
Came to a stone cabinet and opened it to take a look. Even the naked face changed color instantly:
“‘Living Corpse’ and ‘Poison Wolf’ The symbiotic strains of ‘ are dead! Only the ‘bugs’ acting alone are fine.
Who? Who the hell killed them on a mission?!”
Although the expression on that face was simple, the extreme emotional fluctuations caused golden sparks to flicker around his body, and even the glass containers on the test bench shattered piece by piece.
ka-cha! ka-cha!
The death of a companion is nothing in itself, but the resulting reduction in the power of the school, the failure of the action plan, and the delay in the establishment of the witchcraft system are unbearable for him.
After all, he was the one who first got the knowledge bestowed by the evil alchemist and proposed the establishment of the “Poison Epidemic School”. A group of mature and dependable senior wizards lost 2/3/2022 all at once, which is bound to greatly delay his promotion.
Even as a Master with spiritual power, “Fungus” could hardly control his emotions.
He put the important samples and materials in the laboratory into the “magic bag” hidden in his body. Under the action of his spiritual power, his body floated up and flew angrily to the exit of the cave.
Whoosh——
At this moment, the “guests” he had just sensed in [Spore Cloud Telepathy] had arrived at the door of Crystal Cave.
xiu! xiu! xiu!
Following behind a group of seagulls that were immune to physical damage after Spirit Physique, four silhouettes wearing beak masks and leather jackets lengthened along the hole The winding tunnels of more than three hundred meters jumped one after another.
This is not a group of “ravenoids” from the secret department of the kingdom, but Alwin and his party.
For Alwin, who has knowledge of living spirit transformation light and potions, this beak mask is not at all difficult to make.
The mask is made of wood, inlaid with crystal-shaped eyes, the beak-shaped filter is filled with charcoal and herbs that detoxify and kill bacteria, and the quality of the final product is much better than those equipped by the arakkoa troops .
Alwin, who has the corresponding geographical knowledge in his head, understands that the biggest problem he will face may be the dirty, hot and germ-filled air in Crystal Cave, and he has already prepared in advance.
before.
Alwin has immediately dispatched seagulls to conduct a high-altitude reconnaissance after finding the place called Naika Island on the nautical chart.
And at this time, he was very fortunate that he made the thunderbird into a living animal skin.
You must know that when the Silver War was launched to compete for the Potosi Islands, the quasi-Legendary battleship “Guardian Commander” supported by the Yellow Golden Sea from the vice-royal district of New Cyrus, but it cost a lot of money. two long months.
If you drive the “Cape Storm” to go around Cape Froward, the southernmost tip of the new continent, and go around the coastline of the continent little by little.
Although it will definitely take a lot less time than the “Guardian Commander”, the daylily is completely cold, and even if you get the primordial strain and rush back to the colony, you can only face a corpse full of corpses. Miserable.
With a flight speed of 900 km/h, it only took Alwin trifling six hours to fly from the southern end of Liu Dalian Lake to Naika Island on the west side of the Isthmus of Balboa, on the broken Star Sea !
They were in a hurry, but they didn’t realize that the distance between them and Death God was only 80 kilometers.
When traversing the entire new continent, the seagulls in the sky did not stop monitoring the island for a moment, and easily found the entrance of the crystal mine.
When the previous samples of [Super Cyst Fungus] arrived in Alwin’s hands, it was unknown how many generations they had been bred and how many hosts they had gone through. Milan found nothing when divination through them.
But now based on the information obtained from the two “poisoners” before, they have determined that the primordial strain of [Cyst Fungus] is in the depths of this Crystal Cave!
Just that.
Because I was afraid to beat the grass to scare the snake, I didn’t send seagulls to investigate, so I didn’t find the remaining two people out of the four who left the “Visaari School” at the beginning: Pos Luofei and the trail of Haywood Clyde.
However, from the “living corpse” and “poisonous wolf”, Alwin realized that the information given by Dr. Taylor was too outdated.
After combining the knowledge of many schools, and then integrating the “Introduction to Pathogens” as the core into their own system, they have further developed a unique witchcraft system.
Especially in the opponent’s home field, their strength should not be underestimated.
However, once inside the Crystal Cave, Alwin’s Spirit Physiqued seabirds can’t wait for the spirit Physique’s seabirds to disperse in search of enemies and primordial strains.
Suddenly.
“Ha! Two gentlemen and two ladies, a total of four guests harboring malicious intentions, did you kill the ‘living corpse’ and the ‘poisonous wolf’?”
It seems that he also used honorifics to this group of villains with the habit of a classical gentleman, but a voice that clearly implied infinite anger rose from the bottom of the hearts of the four.
The loss of human eyes, ears, and noses allows “fungus people” to see more of the essence of things, whether they are wearing gas masks or not.
And from his unique senses, he made a judgment on the nature of the power possessed by Alwin and his party. Alwin is fiery and domineering, Milan is far away from mysterious, Olivia is dazzling, and Apsuya is wild and unruly.
And the truth of the matter is also easy to reason about. Not long after the two members were killed, a villain came to the door. If there was no connection between them, he would not believe it if they were killed.
I have even guessed that this is most likely the result of serving Lady Crow, but didn’t expect it to come so quickly, the second stage plan is just the beginning.
The four looked back when they heard the sound.
A mushroom that is not much different from the outside world except for its size, is standing quietly behind him.
White’s body is covered with a gorgeous red and yellow canopy, and at a glance, Dao Accumulation is known to be highly poisonous!
The moment they turned around, the giant mushroom had already attacked them first.
Pfft——
At the moment when the fleshy canopy above the head expanded and contracted, a large cloud of red spores had been ejected, and it immediately turned into a large flame when it encountered the air.
【Witchcraft·Flame Spores】
The already foul air in Crystal Cave seems to be burnt out, and even the crystal surface with a melting point of 1700℃ begins to melt.
“Get out of the way!”
I didn’t expect that in this information and intelligence battle, it was my side who was at a disadvantage.
The unpredictable attack came, forcing the four who had just entered the cave before they had time to think about the meaning of his words, so they hurriedly evaded.
At the same time, another dark green poisonous cloud has spread rapidly in the cave.
【Witchcraft·Deadly Poison Cloud】
The battle is just at first, and it has entered the climax stage.
