Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 103 Analysis Report
"..." Ke Lan didn't answer immediately, he kept recalling the clips of those few seconds... In fact, due to the light, he couldn't see the other party's face and the expression on his face clearly, and the other party didn't send any words. The voice just pushed himself down without saying a word.

Although I can't remember the process of the fall clearly, but at least there was a drop of hundreds of meters. Counting the acceleration of gravity, it was enough to shatter Ke Lan's body the moment he fell into the water...

But he didn't die, just a few broken bones.

"There's a problem with that place..." Ke Lan said to himself, "I'm sure to die at that height, but why..."

He didn't tell the hound about the phantom, but if that space was used to imprison the suspected prehistoric creature, how could there be sea water underneath... How could he appear on the surface of the sea?
Ke Lan felt that his head was in total chaos. All kinds of clues and information were piled up on the ground like countless puzzle pieces. From each piece, he could glimpse a small part of the truth, but he just couldn't help it. Put these pieces together to form a complete picture.

"I've already told others that the operation is suspended, and we will take the transport plane back to the ark with you... You should heal your injuries first, and we can talk about other things later." The hound was about to get up when he said At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

"Mr. Ke Lan... Are you awake?" the voice of First Officer Caroline came from outside.

"Yes, he's awake." The Hound opened the door and let Caroline in.

Caroline was wearing an orange-red one-piece protective suit, with a pair of long sealed boots on her feet. It was obvious that she had just come down from the deck. She held a thin document in her arms, and her expression looked... It seemed a little unnatural.

"What's the matter?" Ke Lan turned his face slightly, looked at Caroline, and asked.

"The plane that came to pick you up has arrived..." Caroline said, swallowing suddenly, "That...the one that was sent back...the black skeleton...the relevant analysis report has also come out..."

"Analysis report? Didn't you say it won't come out until tomorrow? Why is it a whole day earlier?" Ke Lan was a little surprised.

"They... I mean the people at the research institute... After they got the things, they conducted a genetic comparison experiment as usual... and then hurriedly sent the report." Caroline said intermittently, she Seems to be considering his own tone, "That...something is not quite right."

"What's the matter?" Ke Lan hurriedly asked, the research institute didn't even have time to do a complete test, and sent the report in such a hurry, it must have made a very important discovery.

Caroline hesitated for a few seconds, and then said: "The thing in the black skeleton...that is, those translucent substances that look like slugs. The people in the research institute extracted its DNA, and after comparing it..."

It seemed that even she herself couldn't believe it. After taking several deep breaths, Caroline said with some difficulty: "Its genetic material is 99.92% similar to humans and us."

The genetic material is 99.92% similar... Anyone who has completed the compulsory education process for the new generation of Ark understands what this means: this creature...is actually a human being.

In other words - this thing, he, Ke Lan, the hound, Caroline, and all the people on this boat are the same species!
You must know that the genetic similarity between human blood relatives is almost 99.95%, while the chimpanzee, the species that claims to be biologically closest to human beings, has only 98.8% similarity to human genes.

This means that there is not even reproductive isolation between humans and that thing...

"How is this possible?! This is absolutely impossible!" The hound froze for a moment, then said immediately, "You mean... that thing is a human being?" He pointed to his nose, his face full of astonishment, "Is it our kind? Then Something like a slug? My kind?"

"Judging from this comparison report alone, it's true..." Caroline nodded silently. It seems that this incident has not had a small impact on her.

"Could they have made a mistake? Could the people in the research institute have taken the wrong specimen? Could someone have accidentally put their own blood in it?" The hound still couldn't believe it. In his opinion, this matter It's even more outrageous than Ke Lan's encounters.

"They thought so at the beginning, and then they did three identical comparison experiments, and the results were all the same." Caroline handed the document in her hand to the hound, "Uh... as I have witnessed... that ...For the person of that 'something', I myself can't accept this fact. The captain has ordered this matter to be classified as the top secret of the entire consortium, and is trying to bypass the security bureau and directly contact the research institute. get in touch with…”

The word "Research Institute" without any prefix refers to only the "Noah Core Research Institute" that represents the highest level of science and technology of all mankind and the official authority of the Ark... It is understandable for the Soma Consortium to do so— —If there is no problem with this report, then this matter is no longer something that a consortium like them can solve.

However, Ke Lan, who was lying on the bed, thought of something else: the black skeleton... the human... the black skeleton in the camp of the 776 special team... and the person who pushed himself off the cliff, suspected to be "Liao Xing" Mysterious black shadow... There seems to be an invisible thread between these clues to connect them together...

There is also the code phrase "Leave the bed", which has no clear meaning, and appears in three places: on the inner shell of the diving chamber, on Collins' log, and the password to open the black box of the 776 special team...

From this point of view, the first "Leave the bed" was probably created by the black skeleton.

So what message is it trying to convey to them?

However, since the black skeleton wanted them to see this line of writing, why did it attack them?

If it successfully killed Ke Lan and the others who entered the cargo hold, why would it need to engrave those words in the diving chamber?

This is the first place where it doesn't make sense...

Just when Ke Lan was about to change his mind, the scene of fighting with the black skeleton before came to his mind again... He suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a detail that he had overlooked.

The target of that black skeleton was himself from the beginning!
In the first confrontation, Akira Asano stood in front of him, and the black skeletons continued to attack him, but Akira Asano took the initiative to stop him...

Coupled with the subsequent invasion of consciousness... that deadly black hole of thinking...

Ke Lan suddenly came up with an extremely bold idea: Will he be mistaken for an Alpha person by the black skeleton because he has the language ability of Alpha civilization?It wanted to kill itself to protect others?

From its point of view, it is its own "heterogeneous" who has held several other people hostage... as long as it can kill itself, can it save others?

However, Ke Lan didn't use those abilities at first...

Ke Lan felt that he seemed to have completed one corner of the puzzle, but just when he was about to get a glimpse of part of the truth, he couldn't find the crucial piece.
