Chapter 6: The Church of the Dawn

"What the hell!" the old man tore the stump from his body with all his might, tears streaming down his eyes, and he threw the stump on the ground with a "snap".

"Poof, goo......"

Mei Ji and I couldn't help laughing, but we were afraid of being reprimanded by the old man, so we covered our mouths and almost suffocated our internal injuries.

"What the hell, what the hell are you two doing!" Director Li's face turned blue and green.

"That's the case...... "Mei Ji couldn't help but laugh and told the story from beginning to end.

"The Walking Dead?" Director Li carefully picked up the stump on the ground, and looked at it again and again, and the thing kept swaying in his hand, making a "click" sound.

"Is it a corpse?" After looking at it for a long time, Director Li couldn't be sure what was in his hand, so he asked me.

"I'm not sure, I've never seen anything like this!"

I know the corpse clan too well, I have never seen such a walking corpse, whether it is a corpse, a zombie, a vampire zombie, a flying corpse, or even a zombie god, but I have never seen this kind of dry walking corpse.

"It seems that identification and confirmation are needed!"

The old man turned and walked inward, beckoning us to follow.

"Wow-" Looking at the dazzling array of equipment in front of me, many unheard of, I couldn't help but exclaim, "When did you learn from humans to engage in scientific research!"

"Humans?" The old man's glasses drooped on the bridge of his nose, his shriveled face was inlaid with this pair of bright eyes, and his disgusted eyes wanted to say again: You uninformed hillbilly, and then emphasized:

"You must know that a lot of high-tech is developed by the Xenobiological Management Bureau, and then it is taught to humans!"

"Hehe, that's amazing!"

I gave an embarrassed thumbs up.

"Help me hold it firm!" the old man pressed the severed limb to the operating table and motioned for me to help hold it.

"Gah... Gah..."

The scalpel made a sharp scraping sound on the stump and the old man's hand was exposed because of the force.

After a few minutes, the old man threw away the scalpel in his hand and shouted:

"Damn it, so hard!"

The old man's eyes widened at the sight of a few debris scattered from the operation, the reward for his hard work.

"Looks like it's going to have to be cut with a laser!"

The old man said, pushing a two-meter-high laser cutting machine.

"No need, I'll do it!" Mei Ji raised her scythe, "Click!" and the severed limb was cut in two, and the injured severed limb struggled desperately, swaying left and right in my hand.

"Just a tiny piece!" the old man grabbed the severed stump.

"And now?" said Mei Ji, cutting off a thin slice.

"Wellโ€”โ€”, just right!" the old man nodded in satisfaction and placed it in the electron microscope.

"This is a multicolored stone?" The old man asked as he adjusted the microscope, and couldn't help but glance at the long sickle in Mei Ji's hand.

"Hmm!" Mei Ji nodded.

"The ancient magic weapon, it is said that it was refined by Nuwa with the immortal stones left over from the heavens, and Nuwa gave it to the demon clan, and it will change its form according to the owner's wishes, and it is indestructible!"

Are they talking about the weapons in the hands of Mei Ji?

At this moment, the sickle in Mei Ji's hand turned into light, shrunk into her jade palm, and the light was full of five colors, condensed but not dispersed, and then burrowed into her palm and disappeared.

"Huh, what is this?" The old man squinted at the dense black dots on the screen.

"Why can't you see clearly, how many times have you magnified?" I asked.

"Forty is enough to observe normal cells!"

"But it's obviously not enough! Could it be that these things are also microcytes?"

"It should be!" said the old man, adjusting the magnification of the microscope until it was 4,000 times and we saw the blurred outline of the cell structure.

This proves that they are also microcellular species, what are microcellular species? That is, the cells that make up this kind of organism are much smaller than ordinary biological cells, and some kinds of cells are smaller than viruses, but they have incredible power, and microcellular species are all heterogeneous organisms, and they are different from ordinary organisms.

Microcellular species, including demons, corpses and desolations, belong to alien creatures, but alien creatures also include spirit creatures, which in turn include ghosts, demons and holy spirits, and there are some foreign objects left by ancient times in addition to spirit bodies and microcell species, which are all subordinate to alien creatures.

"So are they demons or corpses?" That's what we care about most.

"This is going to be an energy test!" the old man still looked weak, as if he didn't care at all, but I knew he must have prayed as I did that they weren't corpses.

"Hey, by the way, beauty, isn't the multicolored stone you used a magic weapon given to Daji by Nuwa......? What does it have to do with her?"

I suddenly remembered that this stubble seemed to be inextricably linked to the legendary lewd demon Daji.

"Am I familiar with you?"

When asked about this, Mei Ji instantly exploded and glanced at me coldly, that kind of coldness was with disgust, not like a joke at all.

I knew that I had stabbed her scales, and I just wanted to make a joke, but I forgot that this joke was something that others could not afford, and Daji had an affair with the king because of the trouble, so the fox clan was spurned by the demon world for generations, and was called a lewd demon.

But it's not the fox's fault, I think they're just too beautiful, so people always stare at them with obscene eyes, but instead call them lewd demons.

The scene was cold for a while, the three of them were busy with themselves, I looked at Mei Ji from time to time, she was pretending to be busy at all, in order to hide the loss in her heart, I suddenly felt an inexplicable pain in my heart, I felt that this fierce girl was actually so pitiful, and I hurt her.

"Look at this!" Mei Ji said, grabbing the stump and pointing to her wrist.

That's, a tattoo? I think I've seen it somewhere.

"No, no......" I cried out.

The tattoo is hard to identify if the limbs are dry and dry, but even so, I can still see that the circle that makes up the tattoo is half dark green, half gray and white, with a glimmer of light in the middle, dark green represents the sea in the dark night, gray and white represents the sky, and the light is the light of the dawn, which is the symbol of the Dawn Church.

"What's wrong,!" Mei Ji glanced at me.

She can't understand my mood at the moment, she will never understand, no one can understand.

"Church of the Dawn!" the old man's eyes widened, and his reaction was more intense than mine.

"You know this symbol?" Mei Ji squinted at us, looking at us suspiciously.

"What do you mean by that...... The Church of the Dawn, which arose in the corpse world hundreds of years ago, has reached the point of threatening the stability of the world, but it disappeared inexplicably decades ago!" The old man pondered the words, he said the truth, but not all.

"Suspicious, don't say I'll check it myself!" Mei Ji saw the two of us spitting, grabbed the stump and went out the door.

"Hey, hey......" I tried to stop her, "you're in danger alone!"

She ignored me, probably really angry, and left without looking back.

But it's about the Church of the Dawn, and she's going to investigate if it's going to be dangerous, it's not whether it's going to be dangerous, it's going to be dangerous, oops!

"If you're worried about her, go with her!" said the old man as he fiddled with the equipment.

"Who would worry about her, don't you know me yet? I'm only worried about money, what if you give me hundreds of thousands? I'll consider helping you watch her!"

"Okay!"

The old man's weak voice was a little helpless.

"That's what you said, don't cheat!" I patted my ass and happily prepared to go out.

"Hahaha...... Ahem...... "The old man choked himself with a strange laugh.

I have never seen anyone who is so happy to pay, and I have an ominous premonition, and I wondered: "What are you laughing at?

"Well, it's like, it's good, it's a good match!" the old man spat out a string of duck-like sounds.

"Inexplicably, I think you're old and confused!"

"You two always look vicious, but you just have a bluffing skin! In fact, you always think about others in your heart, so I say it's very similar!"

"Don't think you know me well, I'm a demon who kills people without blinking!"

"Hahaha...... Demons are generally suave, you don't have that temperament!"

"Damn, are you praising me or hurting me!"

But I know he's telling the truth.

"This girl, is the most desperate investigator I have ever seen, although fierce, but I want to do something, maybe she wants to prove that the fox clan is capable in addition to beauty, she doesn't want others to only see her beauty, she doesn't want people to call the fox clan a lewd demon, this is not her fault in the first place, she is suffering inexplicable slander, but she has not complained, and has worked tirelessly. The old man said, stopping what he was doing, as if to let me get to know Mei Ji.

Bear the inexplicable slander, don't get discouraged, work tirelessly, she's better than me, I'm just a person stuck in the past.

"If you don't leave, you won't be able to catch up!" the old man pointed out the door, and Mei Ji's figure had long since disappeared.

"Holy!" I trotted out the door, ignoring the strange laughter of the old duck behind me.

"Damn!" I waited for a long time and the elevator didn't come, the downward elevator had reached the 150th floor, Mei Ji should be inside, she was already halfway down, if she drove away, where would I go to find her? I can't let her go to the Church of the Dawn alone, it's self-defeating.

So I decided to take the stairs and chase the elevator that was going down at a speed of 10 meters per second.

"Hi!" I tried to hide my embarrassment, smiling and greeting Mei Ji, who was standing at the elevator door, a little surprised.

I don't know if my smile is a little stiff, I don't want him to think of me as a bad person, I have to try to let her know that I have no ill will towards her, I don't think the fox people are lewd.

But this switch only came with white eyes, of course, I know that after hurting someone, I shouldn't ask people to forgive you as a matter of course, I can only laugh awkwardly again, and then say:

"May I come in?"

"The elevator isn't mine, why are you asking me!" Mei Ji said coldly.

I smiled awkwardly again and walked in.

"It's a dog, it's so fast, you can catch up with the elevator!"

Mei Ji muttered and pressed the close button.

The elevator showed 148 floors, and if I told her that I was only starting from 300 when she was 150, she would have thought I was bragging!

Coming to the garage in silence, Mei Ji opened the door and got into the car by herself, and did not call me.
