Chapter 339: Night of the Living Dead
Baucia was not comfortable leaving the Ship Doctor alone with Hogubak, and he wanted Clark to lead a team to protect the Ship Doctor, but Clark disagreed.
He is Baucia's personal bodyguard, and his job is to protect her, the mysterious enemy who has seriously wounded the ship's doctor and a gang of sailors has not yet been caught, and if he leaves, Baucia will have no people to trust.
After all, Baucia was not as experienced as Joey Fello, and after much hesitation, she finally decided to take Clark and several sailors with her to accompany the ship's doctor to the mansion, although she did not know whether this was right or wrong, but the sailors on board were obviously moved by her daughter's willingness to take risks for the ship's doctor.
As Hogubak's boat returned to the island, it was full of people, and Baucia sat in the bow of the boat with Hogubak, and the former asked as if he had not yet noticed, "Doctor Hogubak, why are you here?"
Hogubak, once a world-famous surgeon, known as a genius, has been a miracle rebirth in the hands of countless patients who have been sentenced to death by other doctors, and as far as doctors are concerned, his fame and fortune status can be said to have reached the peak, and it is difficult for others to surpass it.
But a few years ago, he himself suddenly disappeared, which caused a great sensation in the medical community, some people said that he was kidnapped, but no one has been able to find out the kidnapper, and the perfect resume and the mysterious disappearance make the experience of this genius doctor legendary.
Hogubak grinned, "There are many unknown creatures on this small island in the magical triangle that cannot be measured by common sense. ”
"You mean...... "Baucia asked nervously as she thought of the strange things that had happened on the ship.
"That's right, it's ghosts, and in addition to that, there are zombies," Hogubak said to himself, ignoring the starlight's crew, whose faces changed drastically after hearing his words, "Ordinary people may feel frightened when they hear these words, and they just want to stay away, but I am not, ghosts, and zombies, aren't they just a manifestation of the resurrection of the soul and body after death?" I'm a doctor, and the doctor's job is to save people's lives and heal people who should be dead, if I can understand the principle of resurrecting ghosts and zombies in this place, then can I go one step further on the basis of healing the dying and bring the dead back to life?"
Baucia opened her mouth slightly, and Clarke, as well as the other sailors on board, were also shocked by Hogubak's bold words, and one of the sailors said to Hocubac with reverence: "Doctor, if you can do this, it will be amazing. ”
When Hogubak heard this, he smiled bitterly: "Thank you, you are very open-minded, but the world may not be like this, studying zombies and ghosts, experimenting with techniques to bring people back from the dead, it sounds really sensational, if some unscrupulous newspapers write some terrifying headlines for sales, I am afraid that countless people who don't know will run to my laboratory to protest." ”
"So you're here alone, doing research alone, and the world thinks you've been kidnapped by someone!" Baucia sighed.
"I believe that when I bring my mature technology back to the world, the world will understand my good intentions. Hogubak said with a smile.
The sailors were a little silent, and many wondered if they had misunderstood Hogubak, who had reached the pinnacle of an industry in terms of fame and status before his disappearance, and they really couldn't think of any reason to embarrass such a world-renowned master of medicine on a small merchant ship.
It is hard not to admire Hogubak who gave up his career and his glory to study medical technology on such a desolate and terrible island.
When the sailors heard Hogubak's words, they looked at him with respect.
It's just that there is still a trace of doubt in Baucia's eyes.
She had seen the horror of the "ghosts" on this island, the sailors who were guarding outside were dealt with without any power to fight back against the ghosts, Hogubak was just an ordinary doctor, how did he live and do research on this island?
……
Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch, and while Hogubak was communicating with Baucia and the other Starlight guards, the boat led by Joey Ferry also sailed to the edge of the island, only to discover that there was a man-made trench on the edge of the island.
The boat carried ropes, and several people descended to the bottom of the trench one after another, and just as Joey Fello, who was the last to crush the formation, also came down, the female navy Kaslana suddenly let out a scream, and although she quickly covered her mouth, the aftermath still echoed in the trench, which was very harsh.
Joey Fellowo frowned at Kaslana, who was terrified, covering her mouth with one hand and pointing at her feet with the other, and when Joy Fellowo looked down and saw that the trench was covered with a layer of bones, and everyone was standing on top of it.
Kaslana is not considered the elite of the navy, although she usually pretends to be tough, but in fact, she has not seen any big scenes, and her psychological quality is not very good.
Selkirk couldn't help but let out a sneer when he looked at her.
Anxious and angry, Kaslana glared at Selkirk, but before she could speak, there was a sudden sound of bones clashing at the other end of the trench.
Everyone suddenly fell silent, and they all looked in the direction where the sound came from, because the fog of the magical triangle sea, coupled with the deep trench blocking the limited light source outside, everyone could only vaguely see a figure of a person, staggering towards them.
"Who are you?" asked Kaslana, who had just been teased by Serkirk, and then pretended to be bold.
The other party did not answer, nor did he stop, Kaslana directly pulled out the flintlock pistol on her waist: "I am Sergeant Kaslana, answer my words!
No one replied, and the sound of the white bones being swept became more and more, and everyone found that several people were reflected behind the thick fog.
"Captain, there's someone in the back, too!" said one of the sailors, looking back, and then nervously said to Joey Fall.
There were strangers with unknown intentions in front of and behind, and a group of people had already drawn their weapons, and Brooke was still casually saying a sneer: "If there are enemies on the other side, maybe I can lie on the ground and pretend to be dead to avoid them." ”
He let out a series of exaggerated laughs, but no one responded to him, everyone stared at the figure behind the fog, the nearest person finally exposed his appearance to them, and the next second, a gasp was heard, and even William showed a look of disgust.
The man's skin had begun to rot in many places, revealing some pale muscles and bones, and his body was full of marks of wounds and stitches, and the remaining skin color was not consistent, like a rag doll stitched together of various races, and his lips had disappeared for some reason, revealing all the scattered teeth and gums.
This is not the appearance of a living person at all, seeing his appearance, a term pops up in the minds of everyone present - zombie.
