Blue Star

Chapter 60 Abandoned Town

"Newt, why is it a newt?" Daoporing took off his glasses emotionally.The content of the mural shocked him even more than facing the group of monsters now, "Do you remember what was discussed at the elder meeting? The body of the salamander has a very strong fission virus. Although it is a close relative to the infected body, this fission virus The speed of infection is much faster than that of ordinary infected bodies."

He put his head in his hands in disbelief, "If it is said that people were infected with salamanders 200 years ago. No, strictly speaking, they used salamanders for human experiments. Then the outbreak rate of infection has already been developed to the present. Humanity is extinct. The antidote, the ancestors must have developed the inhibitor one step earlier than us, but lost it during the migration!"

It's just speculation, but it's definitely a major discovery.

The experimental subject in the cave, the injection box marked with the infected body mark, the researcher who died in the jungle and was bitten by a monster without any signs of mutation.All these are enough to show that human beings had a higher attainment in infection research.

He grabbed Gu Li, who looked calm, and laughed loudly: "Maybe the formula is in the fourth city, we didn't come in vain! The antidote for the ancestors is definitely not the suppression of crystal ore, because suppressing crystal ore can't cure the infection at all. "

"Daoporing, father!" Gu Li reluctantly woke up the over-excited Daoporing, and sighed: "These murals are not research reports, and the experimental subjects on the murals are all marked as failures. If the ancestors really They have already researched the so-called antidote, so how can they develop to this day without leaving any medicine formula."

The books in the library are only fairy tales, no matter how you look at them, they seem to be paving the way for the death of the younger generation.Just like the Boom Boom tribe, because of those beautiful stories, human beings have completely lost hope of life, and even looked forward to death for a while.It doesn't make sense that the ancestors just hope that human beings will eventually perish.

From excitement to frustration, Dao Porling, who had calmed down, also felt that the speculation just now was too absurd, and he really hoped to find an antidote.

Gu Li patted Porling on the shoulder and comforted him: "At least we are one step closer to discovering the source of infection."

Focusing on the pyramid murals with salamanders again, he frowned and closed his hands to intensify the magnetic field range of the illuminated crystal mine.

The fission virus of salamanders will become a common infectious body after infecting humans. Could it be that these severe mutations are due to human experiments?He couldn't figure it out, assuming everything was fine in the original world, why did these experiments on the combination of humans and mutants be done?

For this answer, perhaps more useful clues can be found when reaching the fourth Goddess Pillar.But what needs to be solved most right now is how they can get out of the cave.

The murals record the scenes of human life in the town 200 years ago, from the superb painting at the beginning to the random depiction at the end, as if it was done by a person who started to be sane and finally lost his mind.

Maybe it was these experimental subjects who used paintings to record their appearance as human beings until they completely mutated and lost all their memories of being human.

Reluctantly putting away the expanding magnetic field, he said with a headache: "The murals didn't indicate the way out of the cave."

"No? How could it not be?" Daoporing adjusted his mood, put on his glasses again to check, "I think the two caves on the left seem to have been dug artificially."

Gu Li added: "It may also be an illusion caused by these monsters."

Mimir, half of his body soaked in the pool, hid behind Gu Li, pointed at the monsters wandering on the shore trying to get into the water, and said, "Stop discussing it, and think of a way to get rid of these ghosts. Let's It’s not a fish, if it stays in the water all the time, it will get soaked sooner or later.”

The monster closest to the water pool tried to touch the water source with its body, but unfortunately the difference in body temperature was too great, and it shrank back in pain as soon as it touched the water surface.

There were too many monsters in the cave, and the corpses that were pushed to death in the diving area gradually piled up.The monsters after that used these corpses as stepping stones and slowly approached them without touching the water.

Dao Porling couldn't help but sneered, and bumped Gu Li with his elbow, "According to what you said, the infected are also human beings, so does the current scene count as cannibalism?"

Gu Li rubbed the ring, "Go to the place where the water is deep, and I will open the way."

"What way to go!" Dao porpoise grabbed Gu Li's arm anxiously, "I'd rather go back through the underwater passage and find another way."

During the debate between the two, Iris, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly pressed the shoulders of Gu Li and Dao Porling, and turned them around with a little force.

"Iris?" Gu Li turned his head, but was unable to turn around because of his shoulders.

Iris pressed one with each hand, and could only scare Mimir with his eyes.Fortunately, this kid was timid, and he was much easier to deal with than the two older ones, so he quickly turned around when he saw the situation was not going well.

He leaned closer to Gu Li, and said in a tone of emotionless: "Don't look."

Gu Liyiyan didn't turn around again, and Iris let go of the hands that were holding the shoulders of the two.

The sound of walking in the water changed from slow to fast, and before he got ashore, he heard the screams of monsters coming from behind him one after another.Fight, tear, roar.The three people with their backs facing could imagine the tragedy on the shore just by hearing the sound.

Gu Li stood quietly, his hands clenched into fists and his breathing disordered.

Before going into the water just now, he knew that Iris' fighting power had been restrained.Perhaps it was because he was afraid of being seen as cruel and vicious, or because he was afraid of being seen by him with his mutated and ugly appearance.

He actually wanted to ask Iris what happened after he left him.But everything has already happened, if you ask now, if it were him, you would feel that this kind of greeting is contrived and false.

The sounds of fighting ranged from noisy to subdued to quiet.The whole process took less than 10 minutes, and none of the monsters took a step closer to the pool, and even the rubbing sound of dead bodies being dragged ashore could be heard.

He wanted to look back, but he was afraid that looking back at this time would hurt the little self-esteem that Iris wanted to hide.

The roar of the monster had completely subsided, and he waited for about 10 minutes before turning around.

The monsters in the cave have all died, and the torn corpses are piled up in the corner, but the number is less than what we saw before.It may have been scared away, or it may have been thrown into other unseen caves.

Most of the slime molds that were eaten grew rapidly along the monster's blood, slowly covering the unsightly corpse and absorbing nutrients.

Monsters feed on slime molds, and they end up eating slime molds.This is the case in nature, and there has never been a so-called top in the food chain.

There was a slight sound of water from a dark corner in the distance, and Iris squatted by the pool and scrubbed the hot liquid on his hands vigorously.

Noticing that Gu Li was looking at him, he quickly stood up and wiped off the water stains on his clothes.His expression was relaxed, as if the fight just now was just a simple warm-up exercise.

Gu Li withdrew his gaze, and said to the other two who were still behind their backs: "You can turn around."

"Where's the monster?" Mimir turned and went ashore first.

In the cave right now, apart from the crazily growing slime mold, there is nothing shocking to see.

Dao Porling took off his glasses and picked up the lighting crystal mine on the bank that had been scrambled by monsters, took a picture around the cave and said with a smile: "This fish is really capable. It's not afraid of being hot and good at water, and it also wears a Very poisonous, I now understand why you insisted on bringing the mermaid with you."

Gu Li was not in the mood for the rest of his life after a catastrophe, and his eyes were fixed on Iris who was hiding in the dark and did not approach them.He saw that the hands after fighting the monster were burnt blue from the fingers to the wrists.

It's not that Iris is not afraid of being hot, but he won't let him know like before.

Those who have no use value will be expelled from the team, this is what he said.Iris remembered, but he began to regret it.

Dao Porling took out the magnifying glass, held the lighting crystal mine and approached the cave directly opposite to look around, then turned around and said to Gu Li who was standing still: "What are you doing in a daze, find a way out quickly."

Gu Li sighed secretly, drove the drying magnetic field to dry the clothes of several people, and walked to another cave entrance to search for traces.

Mimir followed Daoporing, helping to hold Daoporing's supply bag, and praised: "Iris is amazing! If there are more mermaids like Iris in the town, don't we all need to be afraid of being caught?" Infected? One fish is worth an army.

Tell me, did Dr. Zhong think the same way back then?That's why you want to turn all infected people into mermaids?After all, mermaids are really powerful in combat, if we can cultivate an army of mermaids..."

"Cultivate a fart." Dao Porling, who was tired of listening, couldn't help interrupting: "Do you think that humans infected by mermaids can become like mermaids? The infected bodies in their bodies are the same as those of other mutated monsters. If One bite would make life worse than death."

Angrily, he threw the Lighting Crystal Mine to Mimir, "Take it, you will know how to think about it day by day."

"I just said it casually... How can I really become like a mermaid." The material bag was carried one after the other, and the high crystal mine lighting was raised on tiptoe with one hand, "Have you found a way out? You can see the old man." It's been half a day."

"Didn't you realize that I'm an old woman? As long as you read more books, it won't make me so hard for an old man." Dao Porling blew his beard and struggled to climb up the cave.

Mimir felt aggrieved, "Can this be my fault?"

"Shut up and come up, I can't see!"

The sound of bickering echoed in the cave, and Gu Li had no choice but to climb up to the cave with excavation marks on the other side.

Seeing Iris and others hesitating under the cave, he stretched out his hand and said, "Come up."

Iris glanced at Gu Li's hand but didn't hold it, deliberately avoided it, and jumped up neatly with one hand supporting the rock wall.

After coming up, he didn't dare to approach, as if he was afraid of being discovered, he always stood one meter away from Gu Li, and hid his hands behind his back.

Gu Li stepped forward to approach Iris, trying to pull his arm to check, but he didn't want Iris to tighten his strength and refuse to let him see.

"Hold out your hand," he ordered.

Iris looked away, as if still angry.

"Okay, I apologize to you for abandoning you before. And today, you helped us a lot and did a great job." Iris is a mermaid who needs to be praised all the time. If you don't say something nice, I'm afraid It's going to be difficult to communicate.

Gu Li let go of the hand pulling his arm, "Without you, we might die here. You can ask me for a reward, as long as it doesn't infect me, I can satisfy you as much as possible."

Iris turned his head to look at him, but he didn't look forward to it like when he was about to reward.After a long time, he murmured: "Follow me, go back to the sea."

Gu Li shook his head, "No, I still have a lot of things to do. And I'm human, I can't survive in the sea like you."

Iris retracted his gaze in disappointment, took a step back, and continued to keep a distance from him.

"Sorry, you can ask for something else. But your home, I can't go." Turn the light on the ring to brighten the light, "Let me see your hand. The wound needs to be treated in time, and you don't want to change Is it like before?"

Iris stood silently, but slowly put the hands hidden behind his body on his sides.

Gu Li held one up and checked it carefully with the light of the ring.The skin was intact, except for being burned blue, there were no wounds, not even blisters.

It is indeed mutated.However, although the epidermis was not injured, the pain was still there.

Iris looked down at Gu Li who was checking his hand, and suddenly became a little curious about the newly read human emotions, "Heart, does it hurt?"
