In desperation, Grani could only throw out the lance in his hand.

As the firelight and sound dissipated in the darkness, the hub layer once again returned to tranquility.

"So, what happened?"

Why were the naxi monsters so aggressive one second, but suddenly stopped moving the next second?Is there some conspiracy?

"It may be that their leader is dead." Skadi walked over from behind her and said lightly.

There was still a monster's corpse hanging on the tip of her sword, and Skadi threw it aside with a slight shake.

"leader?"

"Disaster... These monsters, each of their populations, will have a leader. As long as this leader is killed, then its population will die instantly like it is now." Skadi simply explained, As if to prove what he said, Skadi swung the big sword in his hand, and chopped a non-resisting monster in half.

"O-Is that so?"

"Reckless guy." Skadi glanced at Grani. If the leader of these things hadn't been killed suddenly, the little girl would have been torn to pieces.

"Hey..." Grani smiled embarrassedly. At that time, she really didn't think so much, and completely followed the guidance deep in her heart, thinking that way, and then doing that.Looking back now, I still feel a little scared.

"Miss Skadi, thank you for saving me."

"No... I didn't kill the leader." Skadi shook his head, "The leader is not here."

Although there are subtle differences, Skadi can already confirm that the monsters she sees in front of her are the same thing she has dealt with before.

"Eh? It's not Miss Skadi... Could it be?" Grani was stunned for a moment, and then said with some surprise, "Could it be him?"

"If it's him, it should be possible."

It would take several deep-sea hunters to kill the leader. If it was that person, he shouldn't have a problem alone.

-------------------------------------

But at this time, as the object of their discussion, Li Ke was still studying those diaries.

What Skadi said about the leader seems to have nothing to do with him at all, he just lightly pressed a confirmation button on the main control computer.

【UC0095.5.3, Sunday】

【I was infected. Although I knew that such a day would come, I never thought it would come so soon...】

[However, there is no need to be so pessimistic. For this disease... For this assimilation phenomenon, the research has already made a new step.Thanks to the 'superpower' discovered before, it has been tentatively named 'Origin Stone Technique' within the research institute. 】

[Because of the emergence of 'Origin Stone Technology', we have made a breakthrough in the analysis of this substance itself, and now the patient's life expectancy can be extended to 7 months to 2 years... The time is very long, leaving us with opportunities There are a lot more. 】

[Also, I'm a little curious, if I can also awaken Originium skills, what type will it be? 】

[PS. The outside environment is a bit bad. Suspended origin stone particles have already appeared in the atmosphere. The wilderness outside the city is simply a mess. If a normal person is exposed to this environment without protection, it is estimated that he will suffer from the disease within a few minutes. Originium disease... The current samples are too small, and it is temporarily unknown how the originium disease will affect other organisms. 】

At this time, did K already suffer from ore disease?

Looking at the long string of titles at the back of the diary list, Li Ke felt that things were not so simple... At least, this person lived a long, long time after contracting the ore disease to leave such a large diary.

The premise is that the account has not changed its owner.

【UC0095.6.24, Wednesday】

[I've been a little busy recently, and I hardly have time to write in my diary... Let me see, it's been a month and a half.No matter how protective it is, things like Originium are really pervasive... The infection rate in the research institute has already exceeded 20%, and the death rate has reached 7%. 】

[The entire research institute is divided into two parts with the hub layer as the boundary. Normal people still live on the second layer, and all patients are working overtime on the experimental layer for experiments. Uninfected researchers can only participate remotely. ...However, there is no way around this. 】

[Many excellent colleagues have left us for the time being... I know that Dad secretly backed up the memories of these people. Of course, many people know about this, and they all acquiesced to what Dad did.When the right opportunity comes, these people will come back to us.The premise is to find materials that can resist the influence of the origin stone and redesign the prosthetic body... This plan is currently ranked fourth. 】

[The plan currently ranked first is to find the reason why this substance is only aimed at humans!Only humans, and only humans, will die within an extreme amount of time after being infected with Originium disease.Other animals are not so affected by Originium Disease. 】

[Maybe, it's time to do a little surgery on everyone's genes. 】

Seeing this, Li Ke's eyes widened.

Finally... After searching for so long, he finally found direct evidence.

Today's "people" are indeed artificially created by the ancestors, the purpose is to resist the ore disease.

However, although the doubts in Li Ke's heart have been solved to some extent, they have not been completely solved.

If people today are the products of the ancestors who modified their genes based on the existing organisms on the earth in order to resist the ore disease, then there is another problem... Dragon, Drake, Sarkaz, Sakota, etc. , These races were modified based on the DNA of what organisms?

If we say that the other few can barely be explained by genetic engineering, but the racial characteristics of Sakota, like the halo above Li Ke's head, don't look like the characteristics that creatures should have, right?

But this diary only briefly mentioned such a sentence, and nothing similar was mentioned at all, and Li Ke could not make any reliable speculations.

【UC0099.1.1, Monday】

【Now, we can proudly announce that just like our ancestors conquered countless microorganisms, we have also successfully tamed this brand new substance, Origin Stone.The origin stone is no longer a threat, but a benign and usable means of strengthening. 】

Open, curtain, thunder, strike!

When Li Ke saw this line of words, his heart was full of question marks.

What the hell?what happened?Where have all the diaries from the past four years gone?Why did they suddenly announce that they had conquered the ore disease?

Li Ke hurriedly withdrew and looked through the list to see if he had missed a few diaries... But, the order is correct. The first diary still said that he was planning to perform a small operation on the genes of all human beings. A diary entry turned into a complete conquest of ore disease? ?

Moreover, when he saw the word "strengthening means", Li Ke felt bad for a while, this kind of arrogance overflowing from the lines...he really didn't know what kind of evaluation to make.

[Of course, this strengthening method is still immature. It is not clear what kind of negative effects will be caused by long-term symbiosis with Origin Stone. This plan is temporarily reserved as a laboratory project.However, I have to say that the origin stone is really a very magical thing. After interacting with the human spirit, it can actually affect the material world, and there are even many completely unexplainable origin stone skills... It is foreseeable that in the future For a long period of time, topics related to Originium have been the key research objects of human beings. 】
