Alien Paradise.

Chapter 146 "Mayer"

Logan approached the stalagmite, reached out and touched the strange structure, trying to consciously resonate with it.That is a unique feeling of a gifted person, just like hearing and vision, he can also feel the beating inside the strange structures, and even hear their "speech".

According to the description in the book The Origin of Strange Structures, these "languages" are various. If you stand in front of a large number of strange structures, it is like being in a dense forest, with insects and birds singing endlessly.But only the first-class strange language can be understood by humans, or in other words, it can communicate with humans using intelligible "speech".

"If you are a first-class wonder, then prove it to me." He whispered.

As his finger came into contact with the strange structure, a picture flooded into his mind—this made Logan a little disappointed. The thing seemed unable to communicate with him, and the picture was a compromise way of expression.However, he still closed his eyes and patiently felt the contents of the painting.This often shows the role and upper limit of strange structures.

The Ombudsman saw a statue.

Numerous men and women surrounded the statue, respectfully bowing and kneeling.Beneath the statue is a stretcher, on which what appears to be a badly injured man lies.

When the green light shone from the top of the statue, the wounds all over the man's body began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and within half a minute, he was completely back to normal.The crowd cheered for joy, and kept shouting a word.

"Meyer!"

Logan is horrified!As the inspector that the company relies heavily on, he not only has a comprehensive grasp of the knowledge of mining, paleontology, and mechanics, but also dabbles in theology. This word and the scene in the picture made him immediately recognize the identity of the statue!

Goddess of Love Meyer!
Did this thing once belong to the gods?
That is definitely an undisputed first-class miracle!

The question is why doesn't it respond to its own temptations?
Logan suddenly thought of another possibility - if the strange structure has self-awareness, will it refuse to communicate with him because of the idea of ​​​​disgust or hatred?

This is something that is never mentioned in the book.

The moment he thought of this, a thin layer of sweat gushed out from behind.

"I'm done checking, let's get out of here!" Logan mumbled as he turned around, but found himself motionless.

What's the matter, where are his feet?
And... why is it so itchy! ?

He lowered his head and saw that he had grown a little taller and thinner at some point, his trousers slipped down silently, and the oil lamp hanging on his belt fell to the ground.

His feet turned into a wriggling group of vines, and as if he had his own thoughts, he was constantly crawling towards the inside of the rock!

No... this is my foot, don't go!

"Damn it, Deheny, help me!" Logan couldn't help screaming, "Didn't you see my feet run!"

The enthusiastic manager, however, was unresponsive.

He desperately turned his head away, only to find that there was no one behind him.

Deheni...didn't come in at all?
No, when he got into the hole, he clearly heard footsteps behind him!

"You bastard! Get me out of here!" Logan yelled and took out the resonance jawbone from his inner pocket. "If something goes wrong with me, none of you will run away!"

Resonant Jaws didn't connect with him the way it did before.

At this moment, this mysterious artifact is like an ordinary piece of steel, sitting lifelessly in his palm.

Why, he is the master of the artifact!He is a rare talent!

clack.

As his hand also turned into a bunch of vines, the iron block slipped from the gap and fell among a pile of oil lamps.

No...it shouldn't be like this...

He looked desperately at the hole where he came from, desperately trying to get closer, but his body was completely out of his control.

Suddenly, Logan saw a monster—it was reflected in the pyroxene crystal, like a large group of entwined rose vines. The most ridiculous thing is that these vines still have hands and feet. It looks like the shadow of a few people.

So this is what he looks like?
He suddenly understood why the arcane artifact didn't respond to his call.

What kind of person is he now!
Hearing a sound of fluttering, Logan's body, hands and feet completely turned into vines and scattered in all directions. They burrowed into the rock separately like green snakes out of trouble, and disappeared in an instant.

In the distance, Deheni put down the binoculars and couldn't help but pick the back of his hand, "I forgot to tell him that the contact time should not exceed two minutes and 30 seconds."

"The two-and-a-half-minute limit refers to the miners digging stalagmites outside." Quila added for the leader, "If you touch it directly, you won't be able to do it for a second."

"Really? Thanks for the reminder."

Deheni picked up the whistle on his chest and blew it hard.Accompanied by harsh whistles, hundreds of lights were lit one after another, and teams of people came out of their hiding places and entered their respective jobs.

"The No.14 excavation team is ready, remember your contact time, start timing now—go!"

Under the command of the supervisor, a group of miners rushed to the bottom of the pyroxene cave with shovels and hoes, and the quiet mine became busy again.

……

The next day, the situation was as Xue Quan expected. Almost all the newspapers and magazines in Brilliant Fort reported the explosion on Fenggu Street, and all pointed the finger at the pharmaceutical factory at the Gate of Destiny.

The Jedi Brothers even found the original owner of the house, the Lark Drama Class, and conducted an interview. The latter first expressed outrage at the shed being bombed, and then said that there was nothing out of the ordinary about the new tenants. Very timely and polite.They also went to the shed when they were packing up, and found that there was no obvious smell of sulfur there.

"Although we did not find any direct evidence that the explosion was related to the Fate's Gate Company, it just shows that the latter is quite good at hiding themselves. They maintained a good relationship with the landlord and paid the rent in time, but never told the drama class that the company actually sent The bank has received a large loan, and they are far from being as rich as they seem. Regarding the capital flow of this company, the Jedi Brothers will continue to dig deeper for you..."

At the end of reading, Judy couldn't help but want to tear up the newspaper, "How could these two people write reports like this! When Dan and I were together, they weren't outrageous to this extent!"

"Probably because you are gone, he has to use more gimmicky reports to attract buyers." Xue Quan looked quite calm.

"Now the whole city residents will think that the explosion was caused by us." Zhu Di said worriedly, "There have been people standing around the gate of the church since the morning. It's like yesterday. No, I have to write something..."

"Even if you write it, you probably won't be able to find a newspaper to distribute it." Xue Quan said disapprovingly, "In the final analysis, it is impossible to calm down the turmoil quickly when someone is constantly fueling the turmoil. Help, plus a period of time to fade, the matter will really subside."

"What if it can't be removed?"

"We will be completely overwhelmed by public opinion, let alone selling medicine, we will be cast aside for everything we sell." He leaned back on his chair, "It's a pity that almost no one in this city understands that the Gate of Fate Pharmaceuticals What is behind the company and the Yeni Temple. Miss Judy, please wait patiently for another day, after tonight you will see the spectacle that public opinion is all on our side."
