Giant of Light: I am the Old Ones

Chapter 463: Bleeding dead, traces of the blood-sucking monster Xiuranos (4000 words)
The incinerator, where the value of daily material consumption is enough to support the economic production capacity of a small town for a month.Whether it is the transformation protective clothing that needs the most strict protection, or the most basic hemostatic bandage, they are all made of materials with the strongest anti-pollution performance.

However, even if these materials are not used today, as long as the review date has passed, they will be sent to be burned to avoid accidents.

It can be said that Ptolemy was fully prepared to guard against pollution and avoid any situation that might cause the man-made giant to become contaminated and go berserk.

The only thing that cannot be changed too much is the special nature of Hart's soil itself.

Just like Dagon's body comes from the remodeling of the Weeping Angel's body, if the stone statue of the Weeping Angel loses its specificity, there will be no way to use it as a stone statue material.

Hart's soil has its own characteristics, and he can find a way to resist it by relying on the powerful spiritual power of the selected human body.

They will also try their best to filter out the too malicious components in Hart's soil and work hard to reduce the burden on the human body.

This technology is always dangerous, but once it is successful, solving the problem of darkness awakening, or just protecting the survivors of earth civilization between the time the darkness awakens and before it leaves, is no longer a problem.

This risk is worth taking.

Today's incinerator operators manipulate robotic arms to remotely access the contents of the incoming isolation boxes, into orbit, and toward the furnace.

Some of the protective clothing worn by researchers that day was as white as new, and even in the anti-pollution performance test, it may be the same as the new protective clothing that has not been used at all, but it still has to be burned.

The value of this set of protective clothing is enough to exchange for a good apartment room, but also thanks to the Austro-Hungarian Empire's selection standards and the country's consistent rigorous education, no greedy guy will secretly leave some Something of value.

After the mechanical arm was released again, the clamped protective suits were thrown into the furnace.

After the last material was sent in, a protective gas was injected into the incineration chamber, and then the liquefied agent began to be sprayed. After combining with these protective gases, the robotic arm was purified.

If someone can get close to a certain mechanical arm and observe it carefully, they will find that there is an insignificant blood stain that still retains some moisture, and is trying to embed it into the metal structure of the mechanical arm to avoid being combined by those gas and liquid components. destroy.

All the blood that had been sent into the furnace was burned clean, reaching the level of cleanliness required by Ptolemy.

The purification of the incineration room lasted for half an hour, and the last piece of blood persisted, completely hidden in the internal bolts of the mechanical arm.

According to its size at the moment, it would take at least several days to climb along the robotic arm to the hands of operators outside several isolation walls, and it would even completely lose all energy and dissipate during the journey.

But it has to survive and stay in a new host.

The companions who left the original host could not bear the pressure of the material world and died, and returned to normal blood. Only they were activated by the high temperature in the burning room.

Now, as long as a new host is found, they can start to reproduce and spread again, continue the instinct they have inherited for tens of thousands of years, and transform and spread more descendants of Xiranos.

Flesh and stone, the two most basic symbols of this world, extend many powers that steal power.

Huranos was not the most powerful of them all, but he was the most cautious.It can even fake the terrifying scene of darkness covering the world.

It is said that Xiranos is one of the followers of the Elephant God. The Elephant God played with flesh and stone to create countless Qiuqiu people, who can transform the relationship between flesh, flesh and stone at will.

And Xiranos can only use the image of a bat vampire to extend more vampire relatives, spread his blood, and be ready to awaken and make a comeback at any time.

Because of the covert nature of its spread, it was also chosen by dark believers as a tool to contaminate the artificial giant experimental base.

However, these are not things that people in the experimental base can know now.

Another month later, Amanda was successfully selected from four candidates, and a total of 12 people from other teams were selected to compete for the No. [-] Giant.

They were given a day off and could move freely within the permissions of the experimental base.

Amanda stood on the elevated platform where she could see the open door of the experimental base, feeling the warmth of the natural sunlight.

Another shift of personnel is being replaced, including those working on the incineration chamber.

They don't even know what this base is used for. They just complete their work according to the prescribed operating specifications every day.

A team of 47 people was sent on the train leaving the experimental base. Most of them were recruited from the whole empire, and they were sent back after a quarter. No one could get any effective information from them.

"Asu, be energetic, we are leaving this hellish place and going home. Phew! After we go back, I have to lie in bed for three days and three nights. The work here is too boring."

Derrick poked his companion's waist. Logically speaking, the people here should not know each other, but the two of them were actually tied up by the tentacles of a big octopus at the same tourist attraction when they were young, and were rescued by the lifeguards who rushed over. Down.

The two lay in the same hospital room for a week, but they didn't expect that when they grew up, they would meet in this secret underground base where they knew what was going on. Even the screening agency of the Austro-Hungarian Empire did not confirm this, thinking that The two did not know each other.

Therefore, Derrick and Asu were "actively" assigned to a dormitory.

Since ten days ago, Agent Technology has discovered that something is wrong with Asu. He is still full of energy, but he has been unable to sleep for several days in the middle of the night and has been grinding his teeth. Maybe it is because he is not used to the food in the base.

By the time he was about to leave today, Asu's appearance was already a bit messy. His eyes were narrowed and unwilling to open, and he hid in a place where the sun could not reach him.

Derrick learned when he was in school that people who have not been exposed to natural light for a long time will feel uncomfortable when they suddenly receive natural light.

He noticed that there was someone looking at him from above, and when he looked up, a young man with only a teenage face but a strong figure was staring at Asu beside him strangely.

He hadn't seen that youth's uniform mark, but Derrick didn't ask much, and with that strange look in his eyes, he led Asu onto the track car.

Groups of two and two were arranged in separate compartments. A group of people carried a camera-like device onto the bus and took photos at a time. It was said that it would be sent to them when they took it.

Derrick was very excited. He had seen these children's movies about giants fighting monsters shot by these machines, but he had not taken any other photos except his ID photo when he enlisted in the army.

They didn't know that this was the academy's instant memory cleaning device.The Austro-Hungarian Empire would not just let these people go back, but it would not be so inhumane and kill them all, so it could only cleanse their memories.

Derrick excitedly pulled Asu to face the camera until the dazzling white light flashed.

"Ah——! What are you doing, Asu! Asu!"

Several heavily armed guards rushed into the compartment of the carriage. Amanda, who was on a high support, jumped down. Her body paused on the platform to release her strength, and she also rushed in.

Blood, fresh blood spread all over the floor, a body that almost instantly turned into a mummy due to blood loss, and a guy who raised his arms to cover his face, huddled in the booth seat and roared.

"It's certain, the power of the blood-sucking monster Xiulanos."

Omega had not determined the source of the opponent's power until this moment. There was no way, the shielding facilities in the experimental base had a great impact on his perception.

"Irrelevant personnel evacuated!"

The guards pushed Amanda away rudely, and the movement of everyone in the carriage was restricted.

After getting orders from superiors, gunfire broke out.

Several isolation boxes were brought over, and the two bodies that had been stuffed into shrouds were put into them and taken away.

Not surprisingly, these people who were supposed to change shifts today and go home after cleaning their memories could not go back.

"Omega, can you find the source of the pollution? Hart's soil is the soil of the heart. In the legend of the underground people, it is the condensed flesh and blood of the children of the God of the Earth. Many ancient giants in myths also have lost There are rumors that the soil will turn into stone if it leaves the earth. Because of this, these similarities allow the soil of the heart to be used as a source of material for artificial giants. However, in this case, are these artificial giants created by those ancient legends The Titans in the movie, or the Ultraman they really need?"

Amanda expressed her worries, but she had not yet come into contact with the core secrets of artificial giants, those special soils.

If the mythical Titans were killed by a new generation of gods, their flesh and blood turned into stone and soil.

Ptolemy used his own technology to reshape these stone soils into the bodies of giants of light. In a sense, isn't this resurrecting those ancient Titans?
Judging from the intellect of the Titans in mythology, their strange shapes, and their postures with hundreds of eyes and thousands of arms, I am afraid they are not good things.

Amanda was running inside the base, and Omega was reluctantly expanding his perception, using Amanda's unusual movements to look for any possible sources of pollution.

In the sudden glimpse inside the train, Amanda only saw the victim's clothing number and was looking for the corresponding living area and job position.

However, the disposal personnel in the base were faster. They had already sealed off the rooms of the deceased Derrick and the contaminated Asu.

The daily meals of these personnel are also provided separately, there is no dine-in, and the scope of work is also very fixed. However, the part of the incineration room they operate had to stop working for three days.

This also stops other processes and avoids the generation of new consumables that need to be incinerated.

"Anduin, back to the team!"

The instructor found Amanda who was running around and took him back.

All twelve final candidates live in a large compartment for the convenience of unified management.

The instructor looked unhappy and cursed along the way.This incident of contamination delayed the experiments of the twelve candidates to test their affinity with the statue for several days.

The experiment will not continue until the cause of the pollution outbreak is found.

After a while, Randy, the human body of No. [-], was also sent here.

He was originally scheduled to demonstrate the connection with the stone statue, but due to the sudden pollution incident, he could not return to his room to avoid affecting the confirmed giants No. [-] and No. [-], so he had to come and be with these candidates.

The human body of Giant No. [-] was created after the First World War in Budapest. The internal power struggle in the Austro-Hungarian Empire selected a son of the family that was acceptable to all forces. Even Ptolemy had to accept such a power deal.

Otherwise, this research base would not have received such huge resource support from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Fortunately, this aristocratic young master's physical fitness is up to standard, and he has also passed sensory deprivation and confusion training, so there is no risk of going berserk after transformation.

These precious human bodies cannot be contaminated with any risk, so they are directly sealed off in a top-secret area.

Only Randy, who had been assigned a teaching task, stayed outside.

While Amanda squinted and thought about how vampire-like pollution would spread, Omega suddenly identified a strange aura, the same energy fluctuations as Xiranos, and it was indoors!

Amanda opened her eyes and quietly sat up, staring at the door of her cubicle.

The entire room was divided into fifteen rooms. Although the other candidates were selected by teams that they were unfamiliar with, they had already arrived in this room yesterday, and Omega did not notice anything unusual at that time.

Then the only new person to come into contact with is Randy, the second human body.

The last time they met, it was during the transformation experiment. Randy was wrapped in a thick protective suit, and there was nothing abnormal.

However, it's also possible that the eerie feeling was someone else intruding into the room.

But no matter what the situation is, being able to appear directly in the room of these human body candidates means that this person's identity has been blended into the middle and high-level people of the experimental base and has been perfectly concealed.

Soon, that feeling disappeared.

The door to the entire room was suddenly knocked open, and dozens of heavily armed guards rushed in holding guns with searchlights.

Everyone was woken up, and their instructor had a black nose and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone's authority should know that a pollution incident occurred in the morning, and mutated employees attacked colleagues. Their bodies have been contained, but just now, the mutated employees' bodies disappeared. The traces that can be scanned lead to you Near here. Anduin, you were at the scene this morning. I'm sorry, but we have to take you to investigate alone."

Amanda nodded, he didn't care, since nothing could be found on him anyway, and he could leave the room where the Omega Sense knew the power of Xiranos, so why not.

Before being taken away, he glanced around the people in the room. Randy looked serious and could not see anything unusual.

"Instructor, if you can, check the weather outside. It's best to see if it will be cloudy in the next few days."
