In fact, William did not attach too much importance to the so-called Sick Mountain. He just wanted to use the Sick Mountain to attract open-source patients (human transformation) to find a suitable area to open a theater and conduct a trial operation to collect fear from this world.
Maybe we can recruit some good actors.
As for the so-called flying dragon, hidden village and so-called "incurable disease", they only add a little curiosity.
Even the fact that they cannot be killed is just the inherent impression of the locals in William's opinion.
Led by the snail girl, everyone came to the "parking lot" behind the town.
Most of the tourists who rest in the town of Rakavik will take the bus here.
However, although it is called a parking lot, it is actually like a scrap collection station, with a large number of empty car shells piled up here.
The snail girl found a relatively new and clean empty car shell and crawled inside.
It uses its own soft structure to fill the interior of the car, forming seats and tire structures, turning it into a self-driving bioenergy car.
The snail shell is embedded in the hood.
Nash was asked to sit in the main driving seat, with his feet on the 'brake' and 'accelerator' formed on the more sensitive soft structure of the snail girl, and artificial braking and acceleration could be achieved through stimulation.
Dentist Jessica sat in the passenger seat, while William and Lorian sat in the back seat.
The tires rolled and we officially set off towards the Sick Mountain.
Along the way, Lorian was like a special patient who was bound and sealed. He said nothing and kept his eyes closed.
William is like his attending physician, who needs to supervise him throughout the process to ensure his condition. Dentist Jessica plays the role of "nurse" and Nash plays the role of a "special bodyguard".
It’s not a long journey. You can see the general outline of Bingshan Mountain by driving along the main road for an hour.
As we got closer, the situation of the sick mountain came into view more clearly than observing it from the moon.
The mist was lingering, and compared to the flowing fog in the gray matter, the fog here was more like smoke. Just as the snail girl said, it was a kind of "body fog" exhaled by the mysterious patient in the hidden village.
It's not just gray, but even an unusual dark purple can be seen between the layers of thick fog.
Moreover, if you look closely, you can really vaguely see some kind of dragon flying among the clouds. If you want to see its specific shape clearly, you may have to go inside the mountains.
Finally, the car stopped at a mountain pass.
When I got off the bus, I was immediately surrounded by the mist flowing down from the mountains.
As William took a normal breath, a wisp of purple air, almost invisible to the naked eye, entered his respiratory tract like a thread, entered his lungs and caused primary infection.
Unlike the pathogens that had invaded before, the bacterial cluster controlled by the epilepsy virus in William's body was not eliminated in the first time, and it was not even certain whether this invading unknown pathogen should be eliminated.
Because this unprecedented pathogen did not cause any adverse reactions after taking root in the lungs,
On the contrary, it improves the effectiveness of the lungs. The alveoli dyed purple have a higher oxygen carrying rate, and you can clearly feel that breathing has become smoother.
If the pathogens that previously invaded William's body were compared to gangsters, killers, and ninjas.
This time, what was inhaled into the body was a cleaner wearing a breathing mask and a purple cloak. He took the initiative to help clean the streets and even sprayed a purple air freshener.
When the cleaner was surrounded by various anthropomorphic germs controlled by the Epilepsy Shell virus in William's body, he did not escape or resist.
Instead, he lifts up his purple cloak, revealing a mysterious book hidden inside, and says that he is giving it away for free, intending to pass on knowledge of a disease related to the lungs to the host.
The above are all real-life fantasies of the epileptic brain.
It was the first time for him to see such an interesting pathogen. He himself had a Gestalt constitution with multiple diseases. His curiosity made him inclined to ingest this kind of "probiotics" which was beneficial to the lungs.
Just then,
Dentist Jessica suddenly gave a warning, "An unknown pathogen from a non-epidemic reservoir has been detected.
Its molecular structure is highly similar to that of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Its surface is covered with a layer of microcapsule that can reflect purple light, which has strong concealment and camouflage. The inside of the capsule has extremely strong pathogenicity and native occupancy.
Once the lungs are infected, a primary focus will be formed that is difficult to eliminate.
It's a very strange structure, I have never seen it in the old world. This purple capsule structure is beyond my understanding in this area, like a mimicry barrier formed by external forces."
William asked, "A product of cross infection?"
"It's possible ~ perhaps it's a new type of bacteria produced by the competition and replication of multiple viruses against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Try not to get infected, otherwise our disease system will inevitably be affected.
Even the 'concept' of lungs can be affected, changing our respiratory function."
“So exaggerated
Wait a minute, let me try to see how dangerous the main body of the pathogen hidden under the capsule is. "
William continued to enter his own delusional mind.
Let the Epilepsy Virus command the bacteria in the body to kill the purple individual who is disguised as a cleaner and sells books.
The Death Plague Mist Bacillus was the first to attack, and it corresponded to a dark killer, with a hand knife structure between its sleeves. When the knife slashed over, the black mist dispersed.
What can be cut open is actually just a purple cloak (capsule).
The streets became empty.
A strong and dangerous smell came from the sky above, and the bacteria looked up, only to see a strange man with lungs all over his body, each lung covered with small holes, floating in the air by spraying gases from his lungs.
Anger and murderous intent surged, and he wanted to kill all the ignorant bacteria below.
But the next second,
Chains were wrapped around him one by one, and the fungus representing the chains of pain took action, pulling the guy down with brute force.
The deadly fog bacteria immediately followed suit and slashed more than thirty times with its whiplash in an instant, cutting off all the lungs on the opponent's body and completing the kill.
The remaining bacteria that fell to the ground turned into a pool of foul-smelling sewage.
When the bacteria with sheep's hooves and an umbilical cord hanging from its abdomen tried to clean up, the sewage immediately vaporized and rose into the sky.
Back to reality,
Cough cough cough~ William felt discomfort in his respiratory tract and coughed violently to expel the dead unknown bacteria from his body. At the same time, dentist Jessica handed him a mask of the same type.
She also gave masks to other people.
Both Lorian and Nash used methods to eliminate this mutant tuberculosis bacillus.
Only the snail girl who followed was unable to excrete the bacteria on her own. She didn't even realize that the tuberculosis bacteria had taken root in her lungs. She just felt that her breathing had become smoother.
Nash also quietly approached and asked quietly, "Boss, do you want to help her remove the bacteria?"
"No, that's it... This thing may be redundant for us, but it may be an opportunity for her. Besides, it would be better if we have an infected person in our team, so that we can be recognized by this special mountain range."
"knew."
Officially set foot in the sick mountain area,
It is the same as what the snail girl described, but there are some differences.
The vegetation throughout the mountains is mainly mushrooms, but these mushrooms actually have lung structures similar to those of living things on their stems, and they grow in pairs, with circular openings on their caps.
They can breathe, exhaling mountain mist, which has an impact on climbers.
The shapes of the trees are even more exaggerated, with branches intertwined to form a lung structure. The so-called tree holes are more like a human mouth, constantly breathing.
It seems that all the organic matter inside the sick mountain is "breathing" in an anthropomorphic manner. In addition to affecting outsiders, it also plays a role in filtering the mountain fog.
When everyone was climbing up the dangerous mountain path and reached a certain height... a hoarse roar of a flying dragon came from above their heads.
Looking up,
A flying dragon happened to fly overhead, and even Lorian opened his eyes slightly to observe with his moon eyes.
It is not a dragon as expected, but a giant flying lung! The lungs are like dragon wings, and there are a lot of holes on the surface, so it can fly by spreading its wings and blowing air.
The tail, body and head of the flying dragon are all integrated, corresponding to a huge trachea. Something terrible seems to be hidden deep in the dark trachea.
It is more like a lung dragon than a flying dragon.
Perhaps it smelled the scent of the climbers, or perhaps it sensed that there were climbers who were not infected with tuberculosis, a lung dragon with a length of tens of meters came roaring towards them.
