In order not to disturb the rest of the Blessed Sacraments,
The archbishop led Yi Chen out of the secret room and went to a lounge built into the church. He also set up a light barrier to prevent the leakage of the new breath.
As Yi Chen placed the sawn-off shotgun with iron disease on the table,
It was as if some 'ancient switch' had been touched.
This archbishop, who seemed to have been abandoned by the times, looked like an old corpse and even had difficulty walking, actually held the handle of the gun with great skill and even made a spiral motion with his palm to load the gun.
Click~ The muzzle of the gun was pointed at Yi Chen, and then retracted in front of him to appreciate it, touching the metal texture on the surface of the gun with his old, wrinkled fingers.
"This is... Mariano's craftsmanship, right? The essence of the diseased object is basically preserved. It is short but heavy, suitable for medium and short-range combat. It is a top-grade product. No wonder you want to be promoted."
"Archbishop, can you use a gun?"
"Do you think that an old guy like me has long been out of touch with the times? I don't even know the word firearm
I don't stay here every day, I go out occasionally to see how the organization is developing and experience new things. Firearms are my favorite product of technological progress, and I am also happy to see the development of this new type of weapon and its combination with diseases.
But for a disease like this that involves modern technology, "upgrading" it would be a very troublesome process.
Suitable relic materials are only one part of the puzzle. We also need a large supply of craft materials and gunsmiths who can control open source artifacts."
"That… "
Yi Chen was also in a dilemma. He was even considering picking out the most valuable item from the secret collection and going to the old world to trade with the Duke someday to buy a firearm or related materials directly from him.
“This thing definitely cannot be made before you take the test. Due to the special nature of the material, it may need to be redesigned. It is estimated to take a month. If we are lucky, it may be a little faster.
The "production process" can be offset by your contribution reward this time.
As for the animal disease umbilical cord, you should keep it for now. If you need it when upgrading your firearms, it won’t be too late to give it to me... Such a rare thing must be of great significance to you if it falls into your hands."
"This... Thank you, Archbishop."
Although Yi Chen felt a little embarrassed, he immediately thanked the other party. Such an opportunity should not be missed.
The shotgun spun in the archbishop's hand and slipped between his robes.
"Tell me about the origin of the 'umbilical cord' of animal disease... There are many types of animal diseases, but this 'umbilical cord' involving origin and rebirth is the rarest one."
Yi Chen also informed in detail about his mission to the village and his contact with the new sect.
Naturally, we also talked about the lost holy fetus - the girl Lai Ni, who was eventually chosen by the old world to undergo the open source process of "half-sheep transformation".
The archbishop also rubbed his facial wrinkles and whispered:
"The new church, the hybridization of beasts, the selection of the holy fetus, the birth of the black sheep.
William, you should know that the old world called the Focus suffered some kind of extinction-level blow, and all the rules of the world were blocked. As a result, a large number of patients became extinct, and many source epidemic areas completely collapsed.
Only one kind of animal survived the extinction disaster: sheep.
But their living conditions are still terrible. In the completely blocked old world, they cannot reproduce even if they survive, and can only rely on our world to continue their offspring.
The girl you met is a black sheep that the other party has bred through the rules, vitality and other conditions of our world.
In all the beast transformation cases that the organization has dealt with so far, the number of black sheep encountered is no more than ten... and most of them are not as good as the black sheep girl you described.
Open source means semi-sheepization, which is really rare.
Since the other person is willing to give you such an important umbilical cord, it means that you are very important to her.
Since this is a token of trust, it should not be used as weapon material.
In the future, when our world is completely covered by the gray area, you can also use this umbilical cord to get in touch with the sick sheep, and perhaps you can get a good living environment and pass on the fire of humanity."
"What about the relic base material?"
"I'll try to help you with that, or you can just not claim the prize next time you come."
"Ah, this..."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Since you're willing to become the first gentleman and make contributions and sacrifices for the organization, it's reasonable for me to help a little."
After bidding farewell to the archbishop, Yi Chen walked down the church stairs and sighed repeatedly. He did not expect that the people he met in his past and present lives would be so different. Perhaps it was the so-called "balance of fate" that was guiding him in secret.
As soon as I stepped out of the church door,
A strong arm wrapped around Yi Chen's shoulders, but the arm was thin and smelled of meat, and there was also a breath coming from the side.
"Kim, Reagan, you guys haven't left yet?"
Jin's chin was already resting lightly on Yi Chen's shoulder: "Isn't this waiting for you? See what kind of secret treasure you got."
After Yi Chen explained everything, Jin spread his hands and said, "Boring, I wouldn't have waited for you if I had known... What are you going to do in the remaining few days, William? Continue to train outside the city?"
“No, my body has just recovered. If I am bombarded with mental power again, I will have no strength left by the time of the test.
Take the remaining days to relax. Jin, why don't you follow me and read a book together on weekdays?"
"Okay~"
Reagan took the initiative to interrupt at this time, "Wait, William, don't rush to play with Miss Jin. There is one more thing worth doing before you take the test. It will not affect your condition in any way and may even be beneficial to your test."
"What?"
"Don't you remember what you promised me before? Research on the dead. Although the real dead person is dead, you should have something he left behind, right
In addition, I have also performed "peeling" many times in battle, and I have collected some samples from the real dead."
Hiss~Hydraulic release
Reagan took out a test tube from the cryogenic chamber he carried with him. In the test tube was suspended the tissue fluid of a real deceased person, which Reagan had "pulled out" from the other person's body during each mental confrontation.
"Okay! Jin, come with us?"
"It's boring to be alone anyway, let's go together! By the way, the institute seems to have a special training ground. Can Director Reagan arrange it?"
"Miss Jin, you mean the prosthetic training room? No problem, I'll take care of it."
Ever since Reagan was hungry outside and ate the takeout food King brought back, his attitude toward King seemed to change from friendliness to respect.
graduate School
As Jin was arranged to go to the prosthetic training room.
Yi Chen also changed into a lab coat and went to the BSL-4* sealed laboratory with Reagan.
(BSL, namely Biosafety Level, is divided into four levels from 1 to 4 from low to high)
Level 4 laboratories are extremely expensive and are used exclusively for the study of the most lethal and contagious pathogens and patients. There are only two in the entire institute, and Reagan fought for one of them to conduct research related to the deadly plague.
A Reagan-built, electronically assisted, high-resolution optical microscope had been configured and had a double tube for two people to observe together.
As Reagan used his mental power to fix the plague bacteria onto the slide, the two men moved closer to the microscope and immediately observed the bacterial structure that originated from the original dead person.
The dark, tube-like flagella constantly excrete black mist.
When the plague bacteria sense the presence of an observer, the proteins in their cells quickly construct a cross structure, and the bacterial communities are rearranged at the same time, carrying out their unique "visual communication".
Reagan immediately looked away.
Yi Chen on the side not only did not do any evasive action, but widened his eyes even further, gently held the tube of the lens with both hands, and even let the dust cover his entire eyeballs, looking more carefully.
Saliva drips from the corners of the mouth,
A sigh came from the bottom of my heart:
“What a beautiful structure!”
