Castle of War.
It was already night, and Xun was looking at a report in her room. Ever since Fortress sent several samples of divine evil to the biological laboratory, Xun could be said to have almost lived in the laboratory in the past few days.
Through research, she and the research team confirmed one thing: the evil cells in those evil samples were very rare, and other cells made up the sample tissues.
This is very strange. Although the tissues of evil creatures are not entirely composed of evil cells, in addition to evil cells, there are also cells of other organisms. This is why evil creatures have other biological characteristics.
The first evil creature in the world was a mouse infected with evil cells.
After thousands of years of evolution, the evil creatures have become all kinds of strange, but no matter how they evolve, the evil cells in the body of the evil creatures usually account for more than half of the total number of cells. This is the criterion for judging whether it can be called an evil creature.
Therefore, it was quite strange that the jellyfish monster cells that attacked the War God Castle that day were extremely rare.
"Could it be that it has concentrated a large number of divine evil cells in a certain part or organ?"
Xun put down the electronic board and rubbed his brows: "But no similar parts or organs were found in the War God Castle..."
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Xun put aside the question of the evil spirit for the time being and said with a smile, "Please come in."
The door was pushed open, and a small figure slowly poked his head in from outside the door.
"What's wrong, Xitong?" Xun squatted down and looked at the little girl who walked in.
Xitong seemed to be hesitant to speak, and finally rubbed the corner of her clothes anxiously and said, "Sister Xun, I seem to be sick. Sister Hongxiu asked me to come to you."
"Sick?" Xun knew that Xitong was not human. Tianyang had mentioned this to them. She also knew that Xitong had never had any disease. Now, hearing the little girl say this, she couldn't help but be curious, "Come, let me take a look."
Xitong closed the door and walked in front of Xun.
Xun stretched out his palm and gently stroked the girl's forehead, feeling the perfect temperature.
She took Xitong's hand and sat on the sofa: "Tell me everything, where exactly do you feel uncomfortable?"
Xitong looked at her feet with a somewhat depressed mood: "A few days ago, when I was in class at the academy, I suddenly lost my focus."
Xun smiled and said, "I often get distracted. I was looking at a report, but suddenly I thought about what to eat tonight. It's not strange to get distracted."
"No, it's not what you think."
Xitong raised her head, her eyes were deep and deep: "I was in a trance at that time, and I saw a strange city. It seemed that it was always night there. There were many tall buildings. They looked weird, but that was not the most important thing. What was important was the residents of that city."
"Those residents are all gods and demons, wearing clothes and imitating human gods and demons. I seem to be looking at them through a window, and they seem to have discovered me and are all looking at me."
“I was terrified, but the next moment, I saw the city again.”
"I originally thought I just dozed off in class and had a nightmare."
The little girl clenched the corners of her clothes tightly, wrinkling them: "But today, I saw it again, Sister Xun, do you think I am sick here?"
She pointed to her forehead.
Xun thought about it.
: "It doesn't matter. Even if you are sick, don't forget that I am 'Glory'. I will heal you."
"But I see that you are not ill, you are healthy."
"How about this, you sleep at my place tonight and I'll tell you a story?"
Xitong blinked her eyes, and a smile gradually appeared on her face: "I want to hear my father's story!"
"Okay, then let me tell you how your father and I met?"
"OK."
Time passed little by little, and the little girl finally fell asleep. Xun covered her with a blanket, then took out a communicator, wrote a text message and sent it to Tianyang.
"Xitong is not in a good condition. You'd better come back as soon as possible."
... ... ..
The lost city of Arati.
In a small square, a soldier bravely touched the figure of a little girl next to him, but he did not feel the real object. His hand passed directly through the figure. The little girl smiled and ran happily to a woman not far away, seemingly without any reaction to the soldier's touch.
"These are images." Lint Yali said while holding an instrument. "They have no temperature and no signs of life. I am more inclined to believe that they are images recorded in the fog by some kind of energy. They are images of the residents who lived in this city before Yarati disappeared."
The doctor pointed to the sun in the sky excitedly and said, "When we came in, the sun was still in a solar eclipse, and there was nothing unusual in the city at that time."
“But when the eclipse subsided and the sun shone again, these figures appeared. I think that should not be the sun, at least not the sun in the real world. Its light carries some special wave energy, like a switch.”
"Snapped."
"The images recorded in the fog were activated all at once. Don't worry, they are harmless and will not pay attention to us. These are just projections of the past, projections of history."
Olgali herself also tried to contact some figures, and after confirming that they were harmless, she gave orders to establish a forward camp in this small square to provide support for the subsequent long-term exploration.
The soldiers began to install instruments and equipment and tried to establish communications with the outside world. At the same time, several teams of soldiers received exploration orders. They were responsible for checking the surrounding streets to make sure they were safe and free-moving areas.
Tianyang wanted to explore alone but couldn't find the opportunity for the time being, so he had to stay in the small square to rest.
Olgali was busy running around, and soon a command tent was set up, and the soldiers were carrying instruments in. After this busyness lasted for nearly two hours, Tianyang came to the command tent.
In the tent, Olga was explaining something to her adjutant. When she saw Tianyang, she nodded slightly, then walked over and said, "Lord Tianyang, are you interested in exploring with me? We found a temple not far away. It should be a building of the Niguang Cult."
Tianyang was about to agree when a soldier rushed into the tent and handed an electronic board to Olgari.
"General, one of our troops was attacked and no one survived."
“This is their video record.”
The command tent suddenly became quiet.
Attack, no survivors, these words are enough to attract people's attention.
Olgali took the electronic board, looked around, and said in a flat tone: "Keep working."
She looked at Tianyang again, then walked out.
Tianyang followed the tent and in a corner of the square, Olgali opened the record.
On the electronic board, the picture flickered for a while before becoming clear. In front of the camera was a closed building with the door welded shut from the outside. A Silver Dragon Fort soldier used a cutter to create a gap in the wall next to it.
After the gap was formed, this group of soldiers began to enter. Dust was floating in the door and a thick layer of dust accumulated on the ground. It seemed that no one had been active here for a long time.
They quickly checked the floor and judging from the scenes in the video, this should be some kind of office building with many facilities, but there were signs of violent damage.
After a few soldiers exchanged glances with each other, they raised their rifles, maintained a defensive formation, approached the stairs at the end of the corridor, and began to search upwards.
Soon they reached the second floor and pushed open a heavy door, revealing a dark corridor behind it.
The soldiers threw a few fluorescent sticks into the corridor, and the cold light illuminated the passage. They could see that the ground was messy and there were dark graffiti on the walls. Because it had been so long, they couldn't tell what kind of paint had been used to paint it.
At this moment, a shadow flashed at the corner at the end of the passage. The light immediately shone there, and a figure could be seen bending over and lying against the wall.
There was almost no fog in the building, so the image was very clear. It could be seen that the figure was probably a male, and his clothes were not only old but also tattered.
"this... "
"Captain, what should we do?"
In the video, two team members asked.
The captain said calmly: "Lock on and fire. This place has been out of touch with reality for a long time. There can't be normal humans here."
He then reported the matter to the command center. In the video, two soldiers aimed at the figure and opened fire. Beams of star element light broke through the air and knocked the figure back again and again.
But at this moment, a scream came from the electronic board, and then the camera shook violently, as if the photographer was thrown to the ground. At the same time, a strange and terrifying face entered the picture.
This face no longer had any recognizable facial features. There were only a few severely distorted holes on the face. Those holes expanded and contracted violently, and festering muscles poured out from them. They expanded and radiated like blooming flowers, and fingers protruded from them.
Screams immediately rang out on the electronic board, and then the strange face that almost covered the camera was repelled. Then Tianyang and Olgali saw that some "people" in tattered clothes jumped down from the dark top of the passage or climbed down from the wall. They frantically pounced on the exploration team members, and soon the image stopped.
Olgali turned off the video and exhaled silently, "Sure enough, when Arati disappeared from the real world, the King of Conquerors did not evacuate all the people."
"Those who didn't have time to evacuate have turned into unknown monsters in this lost city."
At this time, gunshots were heard outside the square. It seemed that the soldiers of Silver Dragon Castle were clearing out the mutated city residents.
"I'm sorry, Lord Tianyang, I'm afraid I can't go exploring with you." Olgali said apologetically.
Tianyang shrugged lightly: "It's okay, you do your thing, I'll go around by myself."
"good."
Watching Olgari leave, Tianyang thought that this was a good idea. He planned to go to the temple that Olgari had just mentioned.
