The moment the stench permeated, Hao Ren knew he was in the right place.
A normal eldest son will definitely not emit this kind of smell—in fact, apart from the thin smell of the source blood itself, the eldest son itself does not emit any odor, including its various internal tissues, and from that thick layer of connective skin Hao Ren had never heard of the stench emanating from behind.
At the moment when the pungent and pungent smell rushed to his brain, Hao Ren almost thought it was a combination of all the evils in the world. He felt a wave of energy visible to the naked eye rushing towards him, and then a Thought: I'm afraid it's just that!
Anyway, Lily threw up on the spot.
"What the hell... I was careless..." Nangong Sanba held his nose hard, and the voice in his throat was distorted, "This f**king didn't come without warning, it just came so suddenly... Girl, hurry up and open the barrier!"
Nangong Wuyue was clutching her nose and trying to hide back. Only then did she finally come to her senses. She quickly waved her hand and summoned a burst of magic wind filled with moisture. The taste of human life was suppressed. After she was under pressure, she immediately crawled to Lily's side to rescue her—the poor husky girl is usually used to gasping for cold air to suppress shock, and at this time she basically lost her ability to move, and she was rolling her eyes and jumping hard...
Hao Ren fanned his nose with his hand, frowning: "Let's not talk about corruption or not, this smell is really deadly..."
"Smell? I'm afraid it's not just as simple as the smell." Galazore was also smoky just now, but the old bird is an old bird, and she was quite calm under such circumstances. She covered her mouth and nose with one hand, Pointing at the people around with one hand, "We have various races here, and each race's judgment and sensitivity to smell should be different—at least I know sea monsters, as elemental creatures, they have almost no sense of smell, and I like this Dragons in China should be hundreds of times more tolerant of stench than humans, but just now all of us felt the same nausea and... well, nausea. This is biological instinct at work: there is something very evil and Negative power, the breath it emits is quite harmful to all life."
Hao Ren was stunned. He didn't expect that there were so many tricks in the smell just now: His only sigh was that it was so strong, it was a bit eye-catching... But soon he realized that Galazore You are right, the "stink" just now is not a simple smell.
Because Doudou, who was jumping on the ground, didn't respond at all. When the stench hit just now, the little guy just looked up at the "surgery scene" curiously, and then continued to jump intently. Doudou's sense of smell is closer to that of humans, but also more acute. Hao Ren can be sure that the little guy has not caught a cold recently, so there is only one explanation: her life level suppression has worked again.
She didn't feel the "smell".
Hao Ren frowned, and ordered to the two self-discipline machines: "Go on, go on."
The autonomous machine grunted in response, and then several mechanical tentacles waved again, and the cutting beam continued to cut the connective tissue outside the brain nucleus at a dizzying speed, with precision and speed.
The thick connective tissue was peeled off layer by layer, revealing the tissue chamber inside. A sphere emitting a faint red light was soaked in the inactive source blood. This sphere was about two meters in diameter, exuding powerful spiritual fluctuations. : It is the brain nucleus of Ugudora Hill.
Galazhuoer was watching curiously, and suddenly waved his hand: "Wait, there is something behind this."
She walked forward as she spoke, and used her magic power to form steps to the cutting point step by step. One of her arms was gradually covered with a layer of fine and firm golden scales, and her fingers also turned into sharp claws with protruding muscles and bones. After making full safety preparations, she stretched out her hand to move the sleeping State nuclei.
The brain nucleus was turned over, revealing strips of black fibrous tissue like blood vessels behind it.
These fibrous tissues glowed with a disgusting black luster, a layer of faint light continuously wandered between the fiber bundles, a small number of strong fiber bundles were constantly beating like muscles, and the fiber bundles soaked in the original blood Some of them continuously release a black substance, which is gradually polluting the source blood, but at the same time, the source blood is also constantly purifying the spreading black liquid.
Vivienne's eyes became serious for a moment: "I'm afraid it's this... what is this thing?"
"Continue cutting," Hao Ren waved his hand, "Slow down, don't touch these fibers. Terminal, prepare more tranquilizers."
This unprecedented "surgical operation" continued, and after the connective tissue around the brain nucleus was completely stripped, the autonomous machines turned off the cutting beam, and began to use the tractor beam to connect the brain nucleus and the " "Foreign objects" are dragged out of the cavity together. There's a little trouble with their work: there's apparently something bigger behind those black fibers tangling around the nuclei.
So an autonomous machine had to poke its tentacles into the cavity and pull out everything underneath.
"I don't think I need to eat for a week..." Nangong Sanba watched the process from the side, very fortunate that he had already vomited once when the stench hit just now - otherwise he would have to vomit again at this time.
Finally, the suspicious "foreign object" symbiotic with the brain nucleus was taken out, or its main body was taken out. The true shape of this thing left Hao Ren dumbfounded.
That's another brain nucleus.
It has the same size and shape as an ordinary brain nucleus, but its entire body is black. The vitality of the blood source has completely faded from this organ, and its shriveled and festered epidermis is covered with sickly scars, and strands of fiber Tissues grew out of this festering organ exuding a foul smell and an ominous atmosphere, piercing into the thick skin of the healthy brain nucleus like a blood-sucking vessel.
And in the lower part of this "black brain nucleus", there are many more robust black fiber bundles, these fiber bundles are still connected to the base of the core organs: the autonomous machines dare not pull them out rashly, because these fiber bundles The bundles grow with those tentacles on the outside!
This "black brain nucleus" seized the control of the tentacles through the direct connection of biological tissues!
Seeing this scene, Nangong Sanba couldn't help muttering to himself: "I don't think I will have to eat next week."
"This is... the 'corruption' of Ugudora Hill?" Hao Ren muttered to himself in astonishment. He suddenly realized that this was the biggest discovery he had made in the Nine Kingdoms so far: the eldest son actually had " Corruption" said it!
All along, he has never found a "corrupted" eldest son—it is true that most of the eldest sons in the dream plane have gone crazy, from life guardians to life destroyers, and their crazy behavior makes it inevitable to associate them with "Corruption" is linked together, but Hao Ren is very clear that this is not the case physiologically. "Madness" and "corruption" are different concepts. The demented eldest sons were only mentally distorted, but they were still indistinguishable from their healthy brethren, and Holletta's eldest son specimen was anatomically identical to Joom's biological tissue.
In other words, none of the eldest sons that Hao Ren has discovered so far has the attribute of "pathological changes".
However, Ugudora Hill was indeed diseased, and a... dark brain nucleus was bred inside it.
Or is there a dark brain nucleus parasitic in his body
Various conjectures and hypotheses popped up in Hao Ren's mind, and some of them could be falsified very quickly.
The data terminal detected the interstitial fluid extracted from the black brain nucleus, and after comparing it with the healthy brain nucleus, it ruled out the possibility of exogenous parasites: "They are homologous. Although this black thing has serious mutations, But it really is part of Uggudra Hill."
"So what the hell is this black thing?"
"This machine doesn't know how it came about, but one thing is certain: this thing is competing with the healthy brain nucleus for the control of Ugudora Hill, a war is breaking out inside these fiber bundles, and the two energies are fiercely Confrontation, the cycle of pollution and purification between source blood and black pollution liquid has probably lasted for more than two thousand years."
Fight for control!
For a moment, Hao Ren thought of the weird "distinct situation" between the rotten tentacles around Nidhogg's lair and the healthy tentacles of other kingdoms, and now this situation seems to be explained clearly.
Galazore's right arm gradually returned to its normal form, and she glanced at the black lesioned brain nucleus with disgust: "So this is the source of corruption, we have to give it a name... How about Heart of Darkness?"
Hao Ren thought for a while: "Actually..."
Everyone else said in unison: "We all think Heart of Darkness is pretty good!"
Hao Ren spread his hands innocently: "I want to say that I feel pretty good too..." (to be continued~^~)
