Returning from the abyss

Chapter 548 The Rhapsody of Thinking

Pan Oak knows a lot of things. For example, as the captain of the extermination, he is very aware of all the internal and external military actions of the No. 1 outpost. He also knows the level of the armed forces there before he left, and he knows some unknown things Locations of Eudemons—those who are too late to be wiped out, but already have a plan.

In addition to the "phantom core" located in the depths of the Beast God Valley, there are two A-level phantom beasts actually observed by the No. 1 outpost, one is the "phantom glow" hidden in the thick atmosphere of the phantom star, Crouching underground at the pole, staring at the "phantom pupil" beyond the phantom star.The final evaluation of those two was the level above the second energy level of A-level, and the strength at that time did not dare to test the Eudemons of this level.

Pan Oak, on the other hand, knows very little about the real core secrets.Of course Pang Xu would not tell an action team all the plans, even if he was the captain.He was able to grope and master the mutation method of Phantom Star Syndrome due to his own luck, but he knew very little about its essence, let alone what its core was.And he didn't know about most of the research conducted at outpost No. 1, at most he knew about the transportation of materials.

"You said that the Phantom Core told you to take us to find the escape pod." HJ-010 said, "Do you know what that is?"

"I know." Oak Pan nodded, "Have you found the remains of civilization here?"

"Of course, even part of the technology has been utilized."

"In the leftover data of a civilization called 'Observer', we learned that this civilization came from an alien field and observed the evolution of creatures in this galaxy, but it was attacked by phantom star syndrome and destroyed. But after all, they are From extraterrestrials, that is, in distant homelands and bases, these escape pods were their last deployment against phantom star syndrome."

"We also found the remains of the Observer, but... there is nothing related to it." Lu Ning said.

Oak Pan smiled: "The Phantom Star Syndrome broke out almost at the same time, but even our outposts have a time difference in their destruction due to differences in strength and precautions. This is also the basis for us to carry out timely rescue. For more For powerful observers, it is normal for some outposts to occasionally gain more resistance time. We have inspected eleven observation stations, and only two have information about escape pods."

Did that civilization resist in the end?Lu Ning recalled that the dark spot observation station did not leave relevant information, and it was probably the first group to be destroyed.

"So, what is an escape pod?" Mo Lian asked.

"I don't know the details. I'm just a soldier. Those high-tech things are too complicated. I only know that Mr. Pang Xu and the team leader Zheng Heng discovered at least one escape pod and transformed it into the original No. 1 escape pod." The outpost goes to Tianmuyi's 'Ascension System'."

Having said that, Oak Pan stopped, and he pointed to a corner: "There are three people there, wearing your badge."

Lu Ning sent out a signal, and soon received an echo.

"Captain? Finally found you."

It was Qiu Shu, his voice was a little tired, but it was still normal after all, he didn't look like he was injured.With him are two Mo Lianren's team members, one is the tall blaster, and the other is the team member with the Yanyue knife.

In this way, Lu Ning was still short of Blue Bird and Yang Hao, and Mo Lian still had two team members missing.The three of Qiu Shu had obviously experienced a fierce battle. Their clothes were damaged in many places, and even a wound of nearly ten centimeters was dug out on the side of the Demoman. If it was any bigger, the internal organs would probably flow out.Zhusi hurriedly helped him with emergency sutures and medical bandages, but the big man was still talking and laughing freely during the treatment.

"Very good, what's left now...huh?" Pan Oak turned around and just started to detect the position of the next person, when he suddenly made a surprised sound, and everyone immediately raised their vigilance.

"What's going on?" Lu Ning asked.

"There are two people who are located very far from here...that direction...is the hatchery?"

A bad feeling suddenly rose in everyone's heart.

"Pan oak! What's in the hatchery?" HJ-010 quickly asked.

"Of course they are eggs. Phantom beasts are almost all born from eggs, even if they look like mammals on the surface. Of course the largest number are primitive eggs. They have the most unstable state, so the possibility of evolution The sex is also the most, and the number of genetic factors carried is also the largest..."

"Hey, Lu Ning, it would be better if the people there are my subordinates. They are medical and investigation people, and they are not research-oriented people." Mo Lianren whispered, "But if the one under your hand is Oops."

Fuck!

Under the identification of the phantom core, Lu Ning can conclude that everyone may have been infected with Phantom Star Syndrome when they came to Phantom Star, but it's just not yet the time to get sick.But she used her own thinking to catalyze five lizards to prove that even if there is no real disease, this evolutionary signal can already start to be transmitted.

Lu Ning has only briefly learned some basics of biology, but Yang Hao is someone who has spent many days in the laboratory and studied every Eudemons specimen.If he can't control his mind...

=
"so much……"

Yang Hao stared blankly at the countless golden "eggs" in front of him, and froze in place.

He already has some understanding of the biological classification of the phantom star by analyzing those primitive eggs. The creatures here have indeed determined their own level before birth, and the low-level creatures will undoubtedly have to go through a longer evolution before they can touch it. The threshold for those C-level or even B-level organisms, and their own genetic defects are also more serious.

But the eggs in this cave are all in perfect shape.

"Hey, Yanghao, this should be the place where those phantom beasts hatch, we can't stay here for too long, there will definitely be phantom beasts visiting at any time." The medical soldier under Mo Lianren patted Yanghao on the shoulder, turned to I walked to a passage connecting the hatchery, but after taking two steps and turning around, I found that the brush hadn't moved at all.

"Calm?"

"The eggs of the highest order...they could be C-level creatures from the beginning, look! Look! This is an opportunity! If we can take a specimen, the most insignificant one, the smallest one is fine! As long as we can Bring it back, and we can fully interpret the evolution of the Eudemons through its near-perfect evolution ability, and reproduce it on humans!"

"Footballs! Don't think about those things! We need to get out of here!"

But Yang Hao had already squatted down, and just as he said, he picked out the smallest one from the large and small eggs, only the size of an apple.

"These phantom beasts have extraordinary power, super power—isn't it? Isn't that something we humans have longed for? And the opportunity to realize it is right in front of us, and I will never miss this opportunity! Earth, water, fire, wind, thunder Light and darkness, we may be able to reproduce all of those things in our own bodies!"

"That's when we're safe!"

"Isn't that why we came to the Beast God Valley? Otherwise, why would we take the risk to come to a place full of B-level phantom beasts!" Yang Hao roared, "They are safe! I know every single gene of them Changes, and also know the direction of their evolution, as long as a fixed external stimulus is given, the desired direction of mutation can be activated, this is—"

His voice stopped abruptly, and he turned his head to look at his hands.

The feel of the egg didn't seem quite right. He turned the golden egg over and found that a diamond-shaped incision had been torn on the back, and the inside was empty.

But when picking out this egg, he specifically confirmed that it was intact.

"what?"

Yang Hao looked at the medical soldier again, only to find that the same diamond-shaped incision had appeared on the helmet on his face, and the same shape also appeared on his forehead. Deep inside.

He turned over his hand and saw that there was such a diamond-shaped hole on the back of his hand. The blood vessels and bones inside were clearly visible, and the blood was flowing normally. He didn't feel any pain, as if the part that was cut out didn't belong to him in the first place.

"Woof! What are you looking at! Let's retreat!"

The medical soldier still shouted anxiously, and Yang Hao instantly felt cold sweat covering his back, his mind immersed in this great discovery finally regained some sense, and tentatively asked the medical soldier: "You... didn't feel anything unusual. ?”

"This is where you are the most abnormal! Calm down? This place can't stay longer! It would be terrible if a few C-level Eudemons suddenly appeared! We don't know what strange abilities they will have yet!"

Yanghao heard the cracking sound from the earphone, it came from the egg, several times in a row, it must not be some illusion.

"you--"

He suddenly picked up the shotgun at his waist and pointed it at the medical soldier, but at this moment, as if the painkiller had failed, he felt severe pain on the back of his hand, which made him not hold the gun for a moment, and the direction With a deflection, the bullet just hit a piece of golden eggs nearby. These eggs were not protected by phantom layers, they exploded instantly, and the lava-like slurry inside spilled all over the ground.

The recoil made Yang Hao take a step back. He felt something pressed against his neck, and saw the shocked eyes of the medical soldiers on the opposite side, but now there was no need to know what was behind him. He only knew that the last moment of his life The task is to kill the medic.

Yang Hao leaned back, feeling a squeeze in his neck, but the defense of the space suit was not instantly penetrated, which gave him enough time to pull out the pistol at his waist, the freeze bullet had already been loaded, as long as it could hit, The tundra condensate can instantly freeze and crack all the cells in the medical soldier's body.

"Football! You're crazy!"

The medical soldier didn't notice anything, rolled over on the spot, and climbed directly into the primitive eggs, even sticking to the things that flowed out of the eggs before.This is actually better, the freezing of tundra concretion can play better in liquid.

Yang Hao fired a shot before the pain came and cut off the spinal nerve, but he had no chance to see the result of the shot. The phantom beast behind him broke through the defense of the spacesuit and burst out with powerful force in an instant, breaking open. At the same time as the helmet, half of his head including the brain was cut off.

The golden jellyfish dropped its tentacles from the ceiling, penetrated into the half of the head that fell on the ground, dug out the brain, and stuffed it into its own body.

And the freeze didn't go as expected.This hatchery was originally located in a high-temperature zone, including the extremely high temperature inside the eggs, and the condensate did have a strong freezing effect. A bullet even froze a small piece of eggs under the ice layer, and the medical soldiers' One leg, but this is the full power of this bullet.

"Ah... this bastard... and that monster..." The medical soldier struggled to pull his leg out of the ice layer. The egg in front of him was completely frozen. At this moment, it was covered with ice like a mirror. He glanced inside and saw his own forehead.

"Huh? This... when?"

At this time, he saw the diamond-shaped hole in the helmet.

Blood gushed out of his seven orifices slowly, and the pain in his head became real, and it took only a moment for the medical soldier to fall to the ground, completely motionless.Another jellyfish floated up from above and stretched out its tentacles toward him.

Pan Oak made an emergency stop.

"died."

You don't need to ask to know who he is referring to when he is dead.Although Lu Ning is a pity, she hopes that this guy will not cause any trouble.

"Something is wrong." BW-009 suddenly said, "My recorder shows that the surrounding energy index has increased slightly, and the surrounding formations have become active. Comparing with the scanning and monitoring data given to us by Wen Beiluo, we can see The volcano appears to be erupting."

"Leave the underground!" HJ-010 ordered decisively.

"Our people haven't been found yet." Mo Lianren's voice was slightly low, "There is one more."

"That's just one person!" HJ-010 retorted, "Bury the whole team here for one person? What are you thinking?"

"I think I was abandoned for this reason." Pan Oak whispered.

HJ-010 closed his mouth, snorted, turned his head and led his team and quickly left on the way back. BW-009 smiled wryly: "Respect her choice, she has no reason to stay here and take risks."

"Why did you stay?" Lu Ning asked.

"I'm here to find someone, even though I don't even know where she is now. I promised others that since I know she's in a dangerous place, I have to make sure nothing happens to her."

"Then you follow us?"

"It's Pan Oak. If he can find someone here, he can find someone for me." BW-009 laughed.

"Okay, since we have to find someone, Pan Oak, please help me." Lu Ning looked at him.

"I am willing to help, but the situation here may change a lot. There is a hot smell in the air... This is not caused by the addition of ordinary B-level phantom beasts."

"You mean there's something wrong with the phantom core?"

"So, outpost No. 23, the one where Wen Beiluo first recovered... seems to be a polar outpost." BW-009 suddenly remembered.

Pole?

Deep underground, in the residence of the phantom core, a person suddenly appeared next to the lava lake. The surrounding B-level phantom beasts immediately surrounded him, but they did not launch an attack.

"People who come in normally should go through the door." The phantom core made a voice.

Wen Beiluo bowed respectfully to the phantom core: "I'm sorry, but it's a pity that we can't get here through all the dangers, we can only take a risk."

"It's a technology used by some well-behaved beings before, I have the impression. Well, it's also a kind of 'door'. What's the matter?"

"Hello, 'Phantom Core', I came from the pole, and I bring you greetings from 'Phantom Pupil'."
