In the Xel'Naga laboratory in the cave, a violent explosion suddenly sounded. Under the dark green acid mist, the spiritual energy reserves of the two corpse collectors were cleared, and the corpse coatings attached to their bodies melted like heated butter.
It turned into pools of filthy "broth".
Xue Hua shook his head and turned around, not wanting to watch this disgusting scene. He ordered a mother insect to quickly arrange for people to clean up all the unsightly things on the ground, and then sent a team of springtails to the back of the laboratory.
Look, see where these two corpse collectors came from.
When the springtails bypassed a pile of black Xel'Naga instruments at the back of the laboratory, another black stone door appeared in front of Xue Hua. However, this stone door was not locked. As soon as the springtails walked over, the door opened.
It unscrewed automatically.
Behind this door, Xue Hua saw a creepy and terrifying scene.
Countless rotting corpses soaked in seawater were piled like waste in the huge warehouse inside the door. Two other corpse collectors were constantly stuffing these corpses into a funnel-like black instrument.
In the corner of this terrifying room, there was a bubbling pool. Just as the springtails broke into the room, a corpse collector was slowly crawling out of the pool, dragging its body covered with a black curtain.
come out.
"What the hell..." Seeing this scene that was comparable to hell on earth, Xue Hua finally couldn't bear it anymore. He abruptly cut off the visual sharing with the springtails and ran to the wall nearby.
He retched.
At the same time, the body collectors in the room also discovered that intruders had broken in. These things that seemed to have the function of a defense laboratory immediately swarmed towards the springtails that entered the room.
"Insect mother... demolish that house for me!" Xue Hua spent a lot of effort to recover from the nausea. He felt the signal that the insect swarm was under attack in the main hive mind, and he immediately ordered the insects
The mothers fought back as hard as possible.
After receiving his order, a large group of springtails immediately spawned on the spot. Ten seconds later, dozens of poisonous banelings poured into the room. After a violent explosion that shook the earth, the three people in the corpse pile room were
The head collector was immediately blown to pieces.
"The corpses in the room are the main materials for transformation operations. The other party is collecting and extracting the essence of the remains of the corpses, and using these human genes with similar characteristics to transform other humans.
The storage box we asked the former captives to hand over contained earthen materials used to fuse these essence substances with the transformer's genes. This material is rough, primitive, and extremely ineffective. It will greatly reduce the success rate of the operation.
And even if the surgery is successful, it will leave irreversible sequelae of genetic disorders."
Abathur's voice rang in Xue Hua's mind, explaining to him what the pile of corpses in that room and the funnel-like black instrument were used for.
"Did you find the experiment log or other records?" Xue Hua breathed out and let the insect mothers deal with the broken limbs all over the house, while he focused his attention on Abathur.
side.
"Yes, according to the operation records of the main experimental platform, I found two experimental logs and record files from different operators. One of them was written in skilled Xel'Naga script, and the other was obviously written by human hands.
.”
Abathur answered briefly.
"I see. Tell me what you found."
Xue Hua nodded and understood what it meant.
The document written in Xel'Naga language must have been written by the Xel'Naga who left this laboratory in the first place. It is also easy to guess that the document was written by a human. He must have been the first to find this laboratory.
Left behind by the so-called "No. 1".
"The first document left by Xel'Naga mainly records the specific operating procedures and experimental materials of the three experiments and their substitutes, as well as the methods of controlling the instruments for collecting corpses. From the content point of view, this is
An instructional operational document designed to teach the document's discoverer how to perform an experiment.
The second document left by humans was more chaotic. It was not a regular experimental log recording process. The writer seemed more like he was conducting some kind of religious ritual than a rigorous biological evolution experiment.
This human being completely recorded the entire process of discovering and utilizing this laboratory, and foolishly called this process 'divine revelation'."
There was a rare hint of disdain in Abathur's voice, and it was obvious that he felt that the humans who left this document were very ignorant and stupid.
"After preliminary inspection of the experimental procedures left by Xel'Naga, I roughly understood the specific effects of those three experimental surgeries.
The first experiment is 'evolutionary surgery', which is a surgery used to modify human genes and enable them to bypass the surveillance network of this world's will, thereby gaining 'professional power' in this world. This surgery focuses on using human corpses
Similar genes are mixed with the essence genes of various other creatures to enhance the psychic perception of humans who undergo surgery, so that they have the basic conditions for natural promotion to 'professionals'.
This kind of surgery can also give the recipient a strong ability to plunder energy. After killing the enemy, the target of the surgery can completely and completely plunder most of the energy in the opponent's body with the help of the contract rules of this world, and no longer lose part of it.
The plundered energy is fed back to the other party to the psychic contract.
The surgery carries considerable risks, with the chance of failure magnified to an extremely high degree by the materials and the low biological knowledge of the person performing the surgery.
The second experiment is 'cloning technology'. According to what I found after thoroughly reading the operating procedures of this technology, the cloning technology left by Xel'Naga has quite obvious and fatal flaws.
The biological clones copied by this technology are unlikely to have the ability to evolve and think for themselves. At the same time, they appear to be very slow in all aspects, and even lack biological instincts.
It is basically a waste-level clone, and due to major defects in its genes, its lifespan is short, it is easy to collapse on its own, and it cannot be used as experimental material for the first experiment.
To sum up, this technology should be just a bait left by Xel'Naga, used to make the prey caught in the trap become careless and believe in the identity of the other party's so-called 'god'.
The third experimental operation guide is a very special biological genetic modification surgery, which requires the experimenter to have a high reserve of biochemical knowledge in order to understand a series of microscopic genetic operations during the surgery.
Obviously, the human in the Discovery Laboratory has not been able to successfully perform this operation yet, but maybe for him, this is a lucky thing."
"Oh? Why do you say that?" Xue Hua asked with interest.
"The ultimate goal of this experiment seems to be to allow the other party to take a further step on the so-called 'evolution' path, but in fact there are many special genetic traps hidden in it.
Once someone successfully performs this operation on himself, his body will become one of the Xel'Naga's backup bodies."
