Chapter 059 Dark Altar!
Never hesitate to guess others with the most vicious thoughts and worst results, which is the way for adventurers to survive...
Under the threat of Lin Xiao's "knife meat", the armored uncle trembled angrily, but he was helpless and finally had to act as a guide. Take Lin Xiao to the final destination. He is also anxious. After planning for so long, he can't fail at this last moment.
The atmosphere is very stiff. The three of them had nothing to say, just hurried on their way. A few minutes later, a thin and bloated male body was found in a diluted mud pond.
"It's the agile adventurer monkey..." Regardless of the rotten mud pond, the two went straight to the side of the body and examined it carefully.
"A torn wound on the back, three claw marks, deep and internal organs, but it is not fatal. It should be left by the swamp giant crocodile... The pupils are lax and the muscles are tense, indicating that it took a period of struggle before death, which means that the enemy is not fatal..."
Zhang Chao moved the monkey's mouth professionally, looked at it carefully, even put his nose up and took a deep breath, and said:
"The tongue is black, the mouth is smelly, there is a smell of hydrogen chloride, and the body has obvious symptoms of decay... I suspect that he was poisoned.
Lin Xiao looked at the traces left by the struggle on the ground and said thoughtfully:
"There is only one trace left by a person. Judging from the different footprints, he should have been seriously damaged first and then be ambushed... He struggled to come here, and then simply fell to the ground and was unconscious. At the same time, he kept twitching and began to overflow with vomit. This can be seen from the viscous ** around.
Lin Xiao suddenly found that the monkey's right leg was a little abnormal and thick. He hurried to check it and pulled off his protective clothing. He immediately found a very sad wound on one of the monkey's calves. The wound deteriorated very badly, but there was also a simple splint made of tree branches on the calf. There is a large amount of thin mud on it, and the crust has been dried off by this time.
After Lin Xiao condensed a water bomb and controlled the washing of his wound, he suddenly found that the area around the calf was swollen and shiny, almost reaching the thickness of the thigh, and the wound was red and purple. Even if the monkey had died, it still jumped and overflowed with a little yellow **.
This is a very obvious sign before suffing, and then it is ulcerated. First, yellow-green pus flows out, accompanied by stench. People will have a high fever, dizziness, headache and talk nonsense, and finally lead to death.
Lin Xiao frowned and did not say anything. Instead, she took out a medical scalpel, rinsed the yellow-green pus of the wound with strong rum, and then began to cut off the rotten meat from the wound with a sharp scalpel and gouge out the black and rotten parts.
Strangely, even if the monkey is dead, there is still blood flowing out of his wound.
"He will not die for more than three minutes, and the blood in his body has not yet condensed, so it will flow out," Zhang Chao said and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"
Lin Xiao didn't say anything, but just squinted, picked up a metal tweezers, and inserted it into the wound like lightning. When he took it back, there was indeed a slender red worm on it. The bug was about ten centimeters long, clamped at one end, and was struggling!
Zhang Chao gently inhales a cold breath, "Buck? Parasite?"
Lin Xiao shook his head, "It may be the microorganism in the water he infected..."
Continuing to check the monkey's body, I was surprised to find that on the outside of his collarbone, there was a red, swollen and inflamed bulge. The bulge was swollen and bright, and even some of the transparency of the light could be faintly seen. There seemed to be something swimming in the pustuff, and the bug had snakes. The posture and hair-like disorder are extremely strange.
Lin Xiao even saved the time of disinfection and cut the pus directly, but saw the hair-like worms inside get into his meat! Lin Xiao's technique was also very fast. The scalpel immediately cut down flat along the bottom of the pus and cut off a large piece of the monkey's skin, but many hair-like bugs were also cut off several times. After these bugs fell to the ground, they bounced on it crazily, as if they had left the fresh work of water. Shrimp! But more bugs have penetrated into the monkey's meat and disappeared again. The broken pieces of meat turned into a small pool of yellow-green ** and penetrated into the ground after squirming for a while without finding a parasite.
"We are in trouble." Lin Xiao took a deep breath and said helplessly, "This is some kind of unknown bug, with strong food hope, strong recovery ability, and a short growth period. Generally speaking, this kind of creature will not be derived from nature, because they will destroy the balance, especially on this Pandora with the will of the planet. Under the gaze of Eva, this kind of bug that can eat everything is destined to not survive... So, are there any masters who can use bugs in our team?
Zhang Chao thought for a moment and shook his head seriously. "I don't think so. Although I'm not familiar with them, I still have some general insight. After all, it is not so easy to hide privacy in the battle..."
After thinking about it, Lin Xiao asked again, "Have you ever had contact with other adventurers before joining the Neville camp?"
"Of course, after all, we were also 'kidnapped' from the spaceship."
"Well, it seems that we are not the only ones in this underground cave."
Zhang Chao tightened his face: "What do you mean?"
"Well, it's very simple, that is, we may have to face a lot of bugs, a lot of bugs... After all, it is not difficult for a highly adaptable aggressive race to create an army that adapts to the environment in a short time.
......
Time returned to a quiet and uninhabited corner of the underground cave three minutes ago.
I don't know when a huge cyan stone slab with complex patterns was placed on the ground. The face of the guy with a big belly had already lost the original kind smile, but a touch of gloomy weirdness.
"Oh, summoning crystals, it costs thousands of points every time you use it, which is completely burning money, hey hey..."
He took out a tens of centimeters long scepter in his hand and inserted it into the middle of the stone slab. Then I saw those complex lines lit up in circles, and the strange flow of energy was connected to the short handle scepter in the middle. The bright light flashed, and three figures suddenly appeared. In the middle was a young man with a hair shawl, a knife on his face and axe, and his eyes closed. He stood there quietly, but he had a dazzling temperament that could not be ignored, which completely covered the glory of the other two.
"Dear captain, according to your instructions, this is close to the final location."
The young man with closed eyes hummed and said lightly, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll give you what you want later. Let's lead the way."
While speaking, another tall European and American man with sunglasses behind him took out a soft bug from his pocket with an evil smile and threw it out of the swamp under his feet...
......
After realizing the sudden emergence of a mysterious unknown enemy, Zhang Chao no longer hid. According to the information obtained for a long time, he took Lin Xiao and the girl forward quickly, turned left along the cave and passed four passes, and finally reached the final end.
It is a huge altar. Even in this hundreds of meters deep underground, there is still a bunch of faint moonlight from nowhere shining directly on the altar, and the whole starry sky is flying, beautiful! From afar, there is a sense of holiness that people worship!
When he got here, Zhang Chao had nothing to hide. A trace of fanaticism flashed on his face and muttered:
"This is the place where the secret of immortality is hidden in the legend! The mysterious altar of the goddess Eva can get God-given power and immortality! The altar of the Dark Mother!"
Lin Xiao suddenly asked, "God-given altar?" That is to say, you need to contribute sacrifices? Is that the real reason why you planned the chief's head?
"No, no, no, the powerful chief's head stained with the soul of the tribe is just the key to open the seal of the altar. It takes a lot of effort to get the power of immortality..."
