Chapter 316: Anatomy of a Deep Diver [ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a subscription]

Views:

In the last battle at sea, the Bureau of Astronomy cleaned up a large number of broken corpses of deep divers from the deck of the ship and in the sea, and identified 165 of them, 21 of which were relatively complete, and 3 were the most complete. According to Gu Jun's request, keep one for him.

It has been more than a month now, and the headquarters has already organized personnel to carry out consecutive autopsies on these heterogeneous corpses. Anatomy experts like Xiao Huiwen are really addicted to their hands, and they have also prevented the heterogeneous structures from being randomly named by Gu Jun risk.

There are too many biological problems brought about by this heterogeneity, and there is no conclusive evidence that it was transformed by humans.

Its genome sequencing has not yet been completed and it will take a lot of time, but they do have similarities with humans, and traces can be found in multiple systems such as internal organs and reproduction.

In the early morning of this day, after the command center received a call from Gu Jun, even though they didn't understand his idea, they still complied with him and immediately sent someone to remove the dead body of the deep diver left for him from the spell. The medical building of the ministry base was transported to Beihe People's Hospital, and several experts including Xiao Huiwen and He Tao also rushed there from the headquarters.

At this time, in a forensic dissection room of the People's Hospital, the pungent smell of formalin permeated the air, and the shadowless lamp illuminated the dissection table.

The corpse of the deep diver has been placed on the dissecting table. It is close to two meters tall, with ferocious muscles and covered with gray-green scales.

Unlike the bodies burned to death, this one was shot in the chest and heart, so it is quite complete, especially the head is not damaged.

A group of people wearing masks and dissecting suits surrounded them. They were Gu Jun, Cai Zixuan, Uncle Dan, Xiao Huiwen and others.

"Everyone, if nothing else happens, we'll be here for the next week." Gu Jun said to everyone.

After going through that long day, I had only rested for less than four hours, and a new round of fighting was about to start again, and there was no time to waste.

He wants to complete this mission with a ten-star rating and get the most and richest mission rewards.

However, within a week, Xie Yiman's condition did not know how it would develop, and anything could happen.

"Come and sit when you're tired." A sofa has been set up by the wall over there, and Wu Shiyu sits on it, "Squeeze a little, squeeze a little."

In preparation for possible spiritual visions, besides her, Deng Ximei was also there, and Peacock and Mo Qing also came to sit in the township. After all, they knew more about spells and old seals than ordinary people. Catherine looked at the dead body of the deep diver and kept saying oh my god oh my god...

What kind of God is this, and this kind of creation doesn't know the maliciousness of the dark power.

Gu Jun looked at the weird mermaid head, and the protruding eyes felt a little inexplicably familiar.

Seems like he's seen it before... He did go to the mortuary to see the corpse before, but it was the same way the first time.

"What is it, let's dissect it." Gu Jun thought to himself, and put the four Kalop brand instruments he had into the instrument tray on the stage.

Knife, scissors, tweezers, and that long-handled hammer.

He told people that this hammer was a gift from Zugjili last time, and it was a product of the dreamland Dilas-Linli, and maybe others were the same.

"Where do we start the dissection?" Xiao Huiwen asked, the time was too rushed, there was no pre-dissection meeting, and no plan was drawn up. "I suggest starting with the limbs and warming up the hands first." Xiao Huiwen wanted to suggest this when watching Gu Jun dissect a ghoul from a distance last time.

"Face, start with the face." Gu Jun said, touching the scales on the face of the fish head with his hands.

This time he was not a pioneer in dissection. He had already seen some other people's dissection images and materials before, so there was no need to dawdle. If this alien can bring any illusion, then trigger it as soon as possible to get more clues as soon as possible.

The scales that have been soaked in formalin are still very hard. Gu Jun's touch is vaguely similar to the feeling of touching Xie Yiman's lesioned skin...

Transformed by people? But the creature's fins, gills, webbed hands and feet, the shape of its head, and many other things suggest it was another species.

If it is human transformation, these transformations cannot be caused by skin diseases, but require a long period of time and various distortions, hyperplasia, keratinization, and so on. Biologists have made a simulation that is fraught with puzzles even in theory.

And there is a premise that still bothers everyone, how many meters can this kind of alien dive into the sea

Different depths make a big difference.

There is pressure in the sea. The record of unarmed diving by human beings without any equipment is 125 meters. Whales rely on their unique physiological structure to dive as deep as 2,000 meters. Physiologically, deep divers should only be able to dive five or six hundred meters, but the last time a submarine dived to a depth of 1,000 meters saw it.

Others thought that the name "Deep Diver" was triggered by Gu Jun who didn't know where it came from. He himself knew that it was the name given by the system, and there must be a reason for this.

If they can only dive five or six hundred meters, he doesn't think the system will call them deep divers.

But whether the thing in front of him is a deep diver, he is not completely sure.

Therefore, one of the goals of Gu Jun's anatomy this time is to find out the relationship between the deep diver and this skin disease, and the other is how the deep diver can dive deep.

Even if you can't quite figure it out, it's good to get some clues.

"Let's get started." Gu Jun took a medical marker and drew some anatomical lines on that strange scaled face, and then took a scalpel and was about to cut it. At this time, he opened the system in his mind and took that one. Abyss Quest:

[Accept the mission is complete! Current anatomy completion: 0%, current remaining time: 167:59:59]

"Hey!" Xiao Huiwen yelled anxiously. Gu Jun operated so fast that no one else could yell, "Ah Jun, what anatomical line are you talking about?"

"The shape of the red skin in the prodromal period?" Cai Zixuan noticed that the human face and the mermaid face are different, so the lines of the shape are also distorted.

"Yes." Gu Jun took the Kalop scalpel and dropped it to the edge of a scale, but the sharp tip of the knife couldn't penetrate it at once, so he tried harder.

"Be careful! You have to control your strength." Xiao Huiwen couldn't help reminding him immediately, he was even more nervous than the person holding the knife, "It has a lot of nerves on its face!"

Because this kind of scale is hard and flexible, it is very difficult to cut. If you use too little strength, you can't move at all. If you use too much strength, some of their scalpel blades were broken before, and if you stab them sharply, they will damage the blood vessels and nerve tissue inside.

Xiao Huiwen, He Tao and the others knew how difficult it was, even if they were busy dissecting it every day, they couldn't control it every time.

But at this time, when they saw Gu Jun's first cut with staring eyes, they were quite calm.

He increased his strength, and all of a sudden, the strange scalpel broke and pierced in without a sound.
