Chapter 244: Mortals have no solution
In the corners of the deep underground hall, torches stuck in cracks in the walls burned silently, glowing a flickering yellow glow.
On the ground below the torches, the monster's body was bound to the ground by a dozen thick hemp ropes, and it struggled constantly, screaming like a snake in its throat, but all efforts were in vain.
Lawson stood quietly not far from the monster, using his magic power to control a fiery dagger, cutting the muscles on the monster's broken leg little by little.
The muscles on this monster's body are very tough, as if they were soft metal, and the dagger with a temperature of nearly 1,000 degrees will cut it for a long time to cut back and forth before it can barely cut a little.
After about half an hour of cutting like this, Lawson finally severed the last muscle fiber, and with a hard pull, he ripped a fist-sized piece of black flesh off the monster's leg.
As he expected, he was going to experiment with this muscle locally.
However, at the moment when the black muscle left the monster's body, it suddenly made a 'snort' sound, and white steam continued to emit out. Rosen looked closely, and saw that the surface of the muscle was constantly liquefiing and boiling, and in an instant, the air was filled with a pungent odor, and the muscle was shrinking rapidly.
'it~ I knew it would be like this! ’
Lawson cursed secretly, and the magic power rushed over, pulling all the air around this muscle clean, forming a vacuum. At the same time, he wrapped this 'boiling' muscle with his magic power, and did his best to wrap the white mist produced by the boiling around the muscle tissue.
Vacuuming is the consideration that a certain component in the muscles and air may act; Stopping the spread of white vapor is to allow this white vapor to form a high-pressure area around the muscles, raising the critical point of boiling.
He didn't know if it would work, but he tried his best.
But soon, this black muscle told Rosen with facts that his actions were all in vain.
A large number of bubbles were still formed on the surface of the black muscles in the mana package, and countless white vapors were coming out, and the speed did not slow down at all. It lasted like this for about five or six seconds, and the fist-sized black muscle mass completely disappeared, turning into a foul-smelling cloud of black water and thick white smoke.
"This thing is weird!"
This incident was expected by Rosen, but he was not too disappointed, and after calming down a little, Rosen began to condense his magic tentacles, slowly probing into the black water and white smoke, and began to analyze its chemical composition.
'Hmm~ There are mainly water, ammonia, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfides...... No wonder it stinks. However, these ingredients are very ordinary, and they are basically the same as ordinary pieces of meat after they are highly rotten. ’
How could such an ordinary thing produce a poison that has no cure? ’
Rosen couldn't figure it out.
Fearing that he had missed some key factor, he probed more and more closely, and almost looked at every molecule in the compound.
This check took more than two hours.
As a result, Lawson still found nothing, and the decomposition of the black piece of meat did not contain any special ingredients.
Lawson sat cross-legged on the ground, raised his hand and gently rubbed his sore eyebrows, and continued to reason: "From the known indications, the monster's organization cannot exist independently from the body, and must rely on the main body. So, which part of the monster's body is the main body? ’
'Torso?' No, my armor-piercing bullet had pierced the monster's chest, but the target was unharmed. The head? This is quite possible. Once the monster's head is destroyed, the body will immediately and quickly decompose. This is enough to show that the monster's brain is the core component, but the brain is also divided into multiple parts, which part is the most important? ’
Rosen suddenly remembered the female Daredevil he had dissected, and the most important core of the other party's body was not the brain or the torso, but a 'sesame seed' hidden in the brain stem.
Could it be that this monster also has 'sesame seeds' in its brain stem, or something like that? ’
He looked up at the monster's head.
The skin on his head is also a metallic blue-black, and the most striking thing is the dark green glow from his eyes.
Rosen continued to extrapolate in his mind.
"This kind of monster is transformed by ordinary people, and although it is different from those natural monsters, it has one thing in common, that is, the vitality is very strong."
"To find the core components in the body of this monster with perverted vitality, the best way to use it is to eliminate it!"
As long as he cuts off the monster's body parts little by little. If there's any piece of tissue that doesn't collapse and decompose, then the core should be in that part. As long as he studies and understands this core, it is possible to find a way to detoxify.
The more he thought about it, the more Rosen thought it was possible.
Just do it!
Lawson picked up the dagger again, heated it to a high temperature, controlled it with his magic, and began to cut the body parts of the monster little by little.
With his previous cutting experience, he was a lot faster.
Ten minutes later, the monster's waist left the body. The result is a breakdown below the waist and a stay of life vitality above the waist. This indicates that the core of the monster's body is above the waist.
After another ten minutes, the monster left its body below the abdomen. The abdomen and the intestines inside the abdomen are all broken down, and the abdomen and above remain alive.
After another ten minutes, Lawson removed all the ribs and muscles next to the monster's chest. At this point, only the spine, lungs, heart, and head of the monster are left on its body.
As a result, the ribs and muscles all collapsed and decomposed, but the remaining parts were still intact, and the faint green light from the monster's eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
'It's getting closer and closer to the truth. Rosen's heart grew more and more anticipated.
Lawson froze, continued to control the dagger, and slowly cut off the monster's lungs.
The lung disintegrates, leaving the remainder undamaged.
The heart was removed, and it disintegrated, leaving the rest undamaged, and the glow of the dark green light in the monster's eyes remained unchanged.
The lower part of the spine is removed, and the lower part disintegrates, leaving the remaining part undamaged.
The middle of the spine is removed, the middle part of the spine disintegrates, and the rest is still intact.
The brainstem is cut off, and the brainstem disintegrates, leaving the brain undamaged. The core of this monster is not in the brain stem, and there are no 'sesame seeds' in the brain stem.
.......
Lawson eliminated it little by little, and after more than three hours, almost all the monster's body tissues collapsed and decomposed, leaving only one brain, which was packed by Lawson in a makeshift metal container.
This brain is also black, but its surface emits a faint green light, and from a distance, it looks like a ghost fire burning quietly.
The last part is that it can't be cut at all, and it's very sensitive to touch. With just a slight touch of the dagger, the faint green light emitted by this brain flickered, as if it was about to collapse at any moment.
Max called this monster a tree golem. Now the situation is clear, and the power of the Dryad is hidden in the brain. But how does this power work? ’
Rosen ran into a dilemma.
He was unable to proceed with the anatomical analysis of the brain. His magic couldn't penetrate it, because from the perspective of magic, it was a dark swamp, and a little deeper probing would make Rosen feel a terrifying feeling of suffocation, even more terrifying than the feeling of penetrating Veronica's waist wound in the first place.
'What to do?' What to do? ’
Rosen circled around this monster brain, and suddenly, he paused, looked at the monster brain, his heart was horizontal, and he gritted his teeth: "Whatever, if it's ruined, it's ruined, it's a big deal, I'll catch another monster back." ”
Of course, although we have the idea of failure, we should be as cautious as possible in our implementation.
Rosen put away the dagger, took out a gold dragon coin, and heated it with the output energy, and when the gold melted, he made five or six hollow gold needles of gold. The reason for using gold is that it is chemically stable, and it can ensure that it does not pollute the brain of this monster as much as possible.
When he was done, he used his magic to control the golden needle and carefully stabbed it into the monster's brain.
'Snort~' There was a soft sound, and a hole was pierced in the monster's brain, and a slight dark green liquid gushed out of the hole, and at the same time, the dark green light flickered slightly, and after a few seconds, it stabilized again.
'Whew~~' Rosen exhaled lightly, and he carefully retrieved the hollow gold needle.
When the golden needle left the monster brain, Lawson's whole mind tensed, and all his attention was focused on the dark green liquid that the golden needle brought back.
After a few seconds, a wave of ecstasy welled up in his heart: "The liquid is still there, it hasn't broken down!" ”
It has not been decomposed, indicating that the liquid is the core ingredient of the monster. Since it can be isolated and can be further studied and observed, there is a possibility that it can be cracked!
Lawson smiled heartily, condensed his magic tentacles, poured into the pipes of the golden needle, and began to investigate.
The moment the magic tentacle touched the dark green liquid, Rosen immediately felt a suffocating feeling of being trapped in a dark swamp, but he knew in his heart that he was only facing a very small drop of liquid, and as long as he held on, it was possible to break through.
He gritted his teeth and continued to probe deeper into the liquid. His magical tentacles not only penetrate deep into the liquid, but also explore as much as possible to the microscopic level.
In the process, Rosen felt like he was diving in ink, and it was pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything, let alone know where he was.
He didn't feel the presence of molecules, he couldn't feel the flow of energy, everything was clouded by darkness. Just like this, he was exploring and exploring, and Rosen never found anything.
Finally, the strange suffocation was felt to the extreme, and Rosen could not hold on any longer, and he had to retreat from the dark swamp.
He was drenched in cold sweat all over his body.
"It's dark, and the presence of macromolecules is completely imperceptible. It's like an inseparable whole...... How could there be such a strange thing in the world? ”
Rosen had a terrible headache, this thing was beyond his knowledge of matter. The road of using chemical reaction method for detoxification is completely impassable.
Not reconciled, he separated the dark green liquid in the syringe into smaller particles, and then probed again.
As a result, Rosen was even more disappointed, and he could still see nothing but darkness.
Lawson was stunned.
After being silent for a long time, he turned his head to look at the monster brain that was still glowing green, and simply broke the jar and broke it: "I'll cut you in half to see if you can still shine!" ’
The gold needle tube was pulled hard and cut the monster brain in half.
Encountering such serious damage, the dark green light on the monster's brain flickered several times in a row, and then went down in an extremely slow dimness, until after more than ten minutes, the dark green light became very dim, but it stabilized again.
'The light becomes very faint, will the composition of this thing change?' ’
With a glimmer of hope in his heart, Rosen took a hint of dark green liquid and tried it....... The result is still an undetectable darkness.
'Well, count it on you. ’
Rosen gave up researching the ingredients of this thing, and he went straight to find a solution.
'My magic can't deal with you. But I have other means. I tried it with a high-energy laser. ”
'The toxin is in Veronica's body, so the laser strike must be very accurate, otherwise the poison will be detoxified and Veronica will be killed by me. ’
Just do it!
Over the next few days, Lawson crafted various alchemy utensils and tried them one by one on the dark green liquid.
After 2 hours, the laser protocol failed. When the laser is injected, at first, the dark green liquid does not react, and after a few seconds, it will suddenly explode violently! The scale of the explosion was quite large, enough to blow the human body to pieces, and if Rosen hadn't dodged far, he would have choked enough.
Why did it explode?
Rosen couldn't figure it out, and naturally couldn't find a solution, so he switched to magnetic field binding.
After 1 hour, the magnetic field scheme failed, because the dark green liquid was not charged and had no sense of magnetic field.
Switch to radioactive rays.
The level of radioactivity in the dungeon was not higher than in other places, and Lawson used the radioactive dust in the air to make a gamma-ray knife.
Half an hour later, the experiment ended with a violent explosion.
Gamma rays are high-energy electromagnetic waves, and the explosion is more violent than a laser, 1 milligram of dark green liquid, the aftermath of the explosion will make Lawson's hair, who was hiding 10 meters away, burn and curl.
The successive failures caused an unspeakable irritability in Lawson's heart, and he grabbed the jar containing the monster brain with all his might, and threw it out violently.
"Damn! I'll fuck your sister! ”
"Bang dang ~ bang dang ~"
The metal container fell to the ground, rolling on the ground, and the dark green liquid in the container was sprinkled everywhere, some of which was sprinkled on the body of the dead guard in the distance.
Lawson sat on the floor gasping for air, his heart full of frustration. In the face of this strange substance, he has done everything he can, and he has no choice.
Is it true that as the sage Nya said, mortals cannot crack the toxin of destruction, only the power of the gods? ’
'Whew~Whew~Whew~'
Lawson sat on the ground, gasping for breath, and gradually, he calmed down: 'No, can't give up!' There must be other ways. I'll think about it again ~ I'll think about it again ~~'
Fighting again, he stood up and strode over to the jar containing the monster brain.
Eventually, he found the jar around the body of the Dead Guard.
He picked up the jar and prepared to go back to continue the experiment, but the moment he turned around, his body suddenly stopped: "Wait, something seems wrong." ”
He turned back and scrutinized his surroundings.
Soon, he found the reason.
As the jar tumbled on the ground, it leaked a lot of dark green liquid. In the dark environment, these dark green liquids still emitted a faint green glow, but the dark green liquid that spilled on the corpses of the dead guards, instead of glowing, even the color became transparent, looking like ordinary water droplets.
"This ...... Why? ”
