"This is our biological laboratory." Cappe introduced to everyone, "There are three types of extraordinary creatures that are mainly studied: dark elves, scavenging eagles and giant scorpions."
Ever since he accepted the history of "magic tides destroying technological civilization," the synthetic man named Cape seemed to have completely let go of his vigilance and guard, and instead enthusiastically explained the research results of the institute to the three of them.
"I thought you were scientific research hunters who came to steal information." Cappe talked eloquently, "But since technological civilization no longer exists, of course I will copy all the information and let you take it out, so that they will not continue to exist.
This abyss is gathering dust—no one here recognizes their value anyway.”
"Actually, we are not interested in your scientific research materials..." Asker said bravely, but he was quickly interrupted by Cappe.
"Get it clear, young man!" Capet reprimanded him. "The vast amount of knowledge I have collected here would be a priceless treasure to the outside world! It would take at least a hundred years of independent research to rely on your Holy See to conduct research."
The scientific research path we have traveled can be embarked on again!"
"In that case, why don't you just go out with us?" Mia asked in confusion, "Take all your research results with you."
"What am I going out for?" Cappe looked at her inexplicably, "Could it be that the backward Holy See of Solomon you mentioned can provide me with a more advanced research environment than here, allowing me to complete the follow-up work?"
"So you, a synthetic human, also carry the wisdom of a scientist in your body?" Ask asked.
"To be exact, the great scientist Mr. Cappe gave me a copy of his memory before he left." Cappe said seriously, "So I need to continue his scientific research project and do what I do.
Until the synthetic human body is scrapped. This is the first priority process of my core program. As for whether it is in the abyss or the main plane, I don't care at all."
"But the scientific research equipment here has no service life?" Mi'er asked, "If it is not replenished, the equipment will break down sooner or later."
"Because I am a synthetic human, I can conduct experiments in a vacuumed electromagnetic shielding and dust-free environment, and the equipment is not so easily damaged." Cappe explained, "And there are spare equipment parts in the warehouse... although in fact
Running out."
"I have an idea." Asker said, "You can stay here first, and after we go out, let the people from the Holy See come and move your scientific research institute out. Maybe after they have thoroughly studied the equipment here,
Can we replicate the research environment here so that you can continue working outside?"
"You mean to ask them to reverse engineer and reproduce the experimental equipment I need?" Cappe thought for a moment, "This is a good idea. If they can copy it, at least my research environment will be maintained by someone...
…”
The four of them were talking when they suddenly heard the sound of an explosion above their heads.
"Damn it! It must be that shadow demon again!" Cappe screamed angrily and rushed towards the stairwell, "Follow me!"
Everyone quickly followed Capet and rushed upstairs, only to hear Capet speak quickly:
"The shadow demon is an extraordinary creature of the abyss that is extremely difficult to kill. It is as troublesome as a banshee. Its only weakness is that it cannot withstand light exposure, so I will attack with fireworks flares later. You are responsible for covering me!"
Arriving at the top corridor of the scientific research institute, everyone saw that the wall at the end had been blown open, and a black shadow was moving quickly towards this side.
As the black shadow moved, the lights on the top of the corridor exploded one by one, and darkness followed it like a shadow.
Cappe quickly pulled out two fireworks flares from a certain part of his body and threw them directly into the black shadow.
The flare ejected brilliant fireworks in the air, illuminating the dark corridor again. As the light suddenly spread, the black shadow also made a noise like a painful scream, and the area hit by the light quickly shrank back.
.
Such thoughts flashed through their minds, and everyone saw the black shadow pulling out a metal plate from the wall next to it, knocking the flare on the floor away, and then using it as a shield in front of them to continue charging towards this side.
"This bastard!" Cappe continued to pull out the flare, pulled out the lead and threw it towards the black shadow. As a result, both the light and the flare itself were blocked by the metal plate, and the effect was minimal.
Due to the rush of the matter, Mi'er didn't have time to bring her sniper rifle before coming to the abyss. However, as far as the law of fate is concerned, no one can escape as long as she has a connection - she went directly from the past timeline
He pulled out his gun and shot the black figure who was charging towards him holding a metal plate.
The bullet rotated and penetrated the metal plate, passed diagonally upward through the shadow's invisible body, and hit the broken light bulb at the top of the corridor. Even in the darkness where it was impossible to see clearly, Mi'er relied on her good memory and the excellence of the gunman.
Intuition, still able to accurately hit invisible targets.
The next second, the power of destiny attached to the bullet activated, immediately covering the light bulb that was originally broken by the shadow demon with the intact light bulb from the parallel world.
The bright light appeared again, shining on the back of the black shadow that was not blocked by the metal plate, instantly burning it and shrinking it by half a circle. It was not until the shadow demon roared that he reacted, driving the mysterious power to break the light bulb again, and the light burns on his body were gone.
Stopped abruptly.
At this time, Ask and Mia had already rushed in front of it, one on the left and the other on the right.
Nine postures of the stars. Break the weight!
The long sword suddenly sounded, and it struck from top to bottom, splitting the metal plate cleanly. Mia picked up the fireworks flare that was blown away from the ground, and threw it accurately from the center of the cracked metal plate.
Go in.
It was like throwing a grenade with the safety bolt unplugged into the observation port of the bunker.
Immediately afterwards, the two figures disappeared from the same place. Light exploded from inside the black shadow, and countless black mud-like objects splashed in all directions, almost filling the entire corridor.
it's over.
it's over?
Cappe stood there as if his machine was down, looking at the shadow demon for less than half a minute before it was destroyed by the combined efforts of these three people.
How is it possible? In the past hundreds of years, the shadow demon problem that has frequently attacked the institute and has never been solved was easily solved by the other party and two little girls?
Is this a fake Shadow Demon coming this time? If this guy is not a Shadow Demon, but a monster that looks exactly like the Shadow Demon but is weaker, that would make sense...
Just when Cappe started to deceive herself, Mia walked to the wall, looked at the gelatinous substance that looked like cuttlefish juice, and asked curiously:
"Is this the Shadow Demon?"
"Yes, it is the most common monster at the bottom of the abyss." Asik replied, "It will die in the presence of light. The corpse is highly corrosive, so don't touch it."
"That's pretty weak." Mia commented.
"The most common monsters are of course weaker." Ask said.
"Fortunately, we are in a scientific research institute. Otherwise, if we were outside and the walls were not reflective, we probably wouldn't be able to fight so easily," Mi'er said.
