Xia Duo immediately cast down the spell that had lasted for a long time. At the same time, Sample No. 43 seemed to be restrained by some force, and its body no longer trembled.
But this kind of quiet waiting made people feel particularly uncomfortable. Xia Duo frowned subconsciously. The fact that it did not explode immediately meant that his previous conjecture was partially successful, but it also did not return to normal, which meant that his purification plan ultimately failed.
"Failed?"
Xia Duo was still a little unwilling. He did not stop the longevity spell, but continued to maintain it. A large number of magic web strings were woven around the body of sample No. 43, emitting a strong magical aura.
And this light seemed to herald life and hope. Xia Duo was unwilling to give up. It was not until he sensed that Sample No. 43 had completely lost its life that he reluctantly stopped the spell.
Looking at Sample No. 43 who seemed to have died quietly in front of him, Xia Duo could only accept the reality no matter how unwilling he was. However, when he wanted to clean up the confinement circle and start the next experiment, the body of Sample No. 43 showed unexpected changes -
—
The skin of the shrunken strange creature on the right side cracked and fell off, revealing fresh elf flesh. At the same time, other demonic characteristics also began to fade.
All this happened extremely quickly, and by the time Xia Duo came to his senses, the transformation was already complete.
The target is still the wood elf, but the eyes have become the golden pupils of the golden elf. In reality, if the golden elf and the wood elf are mixed, similar characteristics will appear.
Whether Sample No. 43 was a mixed-blood elf before or not can be determined by asking later, but now, Xia Duo is more inclined to have the effect of "bloodline collapse + golden elf version of immortality to stabilize bloodline".
From this point of view, the experiment should have been successful, but why didn't the sample come back to life?
Reminiscent of the many mutants, only Mira still retains a trace of her original consciousness, while Sample No. 43 lost her original consciousness from the beginning.
Perhaps it’s because the mutant’s consciousness has long since dissipated, and all that is saved in the end is just a body!
"is that so?"
Sha Duo re-examined the sample No. 43 that restored the original appearance of the elf. It was true that it had lost signs of life, but the body was still alive. If a normal consciousness settled in, it might really be able to recover!
…
Next, Xia Duo tried several more purification experiments of the immortality plan, and most of the results were consistent with Sample No. 43. In the end, he only obtained an unconscious body.
A few had their bodies disintegrate directly during the experiment, which was considered a complete failure.
"It seems that the key to the problem lies in consciousness!"
Sha Duo thought of Mira again. Perhaps Mira was the real key. Only by finding a way to restore consciousness from her could other mutants be truly saved.
Of course, this is only possible. In fact, Xia Duo is more inclined to believe that those mutants whose consciousness has dissipated will never come back.
As the saying goes, "Creation is harder than destruction."
In addition, the immortality plan is not perfect yet. Aside from the few cases where the body has directly collapsed, even those bodies that seem to have returned to normal still have the influence of the demon blood.
However, at this time, it is already possible to accept some more intense purification methods, such as high-intensity positive energy baptism or other methods to completely purify the demon blood or turn it into a hidden state.
…
Some time before dawn, Xia Duo did not continue the experiment, but went back to the study to sort out the experimental records and take a rest.
Although this incarnation does not need to rest, the premise is that it is not overused, and it can only extend its usage limit by taking an occasional rest and maintenance.
After dawn.
Chatoyor Segis continues to explore the Mystery Lock node. With most of the authority of the old Mystery Lock, the subsequent exploration efficiency will be increased countless times than before!
As long as the survey is completed, you can devote yourself to the new mystery lock project.
dc area.
When Xia Duo saw Sergis, he looked tired and listless, which made him glad that he didn't go to Genting Tower to attend the handover ceremony yesterday afternoon.
If he went there, regardless of whether he would meet Salvin's high mage, the meaningless social activities alone would make him very resistant.
Drinking and feasting all night long, and all you get in the end is emptiness.
Of course, the elves may be enjoying it, but Xia Duo is not grateful.
"Segis, you are in such a bad state! Why don't you go back and rest first! I can do it by myself today."
"No, I can do that!"
Even the elves, even if it wasn't that kind of thing, no one would be willing to admit that they were not good enough. After hearing Shado's words, Sergis immediately cast a spell on himself, and saw that his spirits returned to high spirits.
"Although I need more time to rest afterwards to make up for the current situation, the authority has been obtained and all exploration tasks must be completed today!"
In addition to Shado's unwillingness to admit defeat, Sergis still wants to complete the old mystery lock exploration work as soon as possible. After all, there are no obstacles to Everesca's independence now, and the mystery lock is the hindrance.
"Well, I also want to invest in the new mystery lock project as soon as possible."
Since Segis insisted, Chateau would naturally not object. What surprised him was what Segis just said - all the exploration tasks would be completed today.
It seems that representatives from various countries were not the only ones who handed over authority yesterday. I am afraid that the knowledgeable authority controllers in the city also handed over authority in advance after learning that the negotiations were successfully concluded!
"I'll give you the permission key. You can cast a spell to obtain the permission on your own. We won't act together today. It's more efficient to be separated. Even if you have permission, it won't be easy to complete the remaining exploration tasks in one day!"
Sergis said with a serious face and bowed to Shado seriously, "Thank you for your efforts. Without you, Evereska's independence would never have been so smooth!"
Sergis's attitude almost startled Shado. He thought that the Council of Elders knew his true identity (Xillin), but then he realized that what Sergis was talking about was the discovery of the demon descendant.
This did open up the negotiating gap for Everesca. Of course, Chateau was doing more behind the scenes, but that didn't need to be said.
"We are partners, and Everesca's independence is also my goal. All this is what I should do."
"But Athos, why are you unwilling to join the Council of Elders?" Sergis asked again.
"I don't want to be bothered by too many trivial matters. The most important thing now is to dismantle the old mystery locks and build new ones as soon as possible. We will talk about the rest later."
Shado changed the subject with business, and Sergis did not continue to ask, but he had already decided that when the Mystic Lock was completed, he would find a way to persuade Athos to join the Council of Elders. This was the position that Athos deserved.
This is also the reward Evereska deserves for those who give.
