218. Coagulant toxins
Everyone was exhausted from the nearly half-month journey, so the whole team planned to fix themselves at the edge of the forest and wait until everyone had regained their strength before continuing on the road. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After all, this group of people is there to search for ruins, not to send them to death, although time is precious, but there is no need to be so desperate.
"How's it going?" Huang Qian walked over and sat next to Ding Hao, watching with interest as Ding Hao assembled the tracker in his hand. The tracker looks like a plate with a small radar that rotates to capture signals from the assembly machine.
"It's basically assembled, and then it's just a matter of installing the battery and debugging it a few times." Ding Hao took an energy battery and stuffed it into the slot, and the tracker's display suddenly lit up. In order to make this tracker, Ding Hao carried a lot of equipment that could not be used, such as the hovercraft and the sea snake launcher, as well as the drone that had not been used a few times. But as long as you find an assembly machine, the cost is worth it.
However, Ding Hao and Huang Qian didn't be happy for two seconds when they looked at the lit screen, when they heard a snap, a handful of sparks burst out behind the tracker, and the entire screen dimmed again.
Ding Hao: ......
Huang Qian: ......
"There may be a short circuit somewhere, but it doesn't matter, it will be fixed soon." Ding Hao hurriedly turned the tracker over and checked it, and found that although some electronic components were burned out of this failure, fortunately, it was not an important part and could be completely remedied.
"Forget it, leave it alone." Huang Qian reached out and took the tracker from Ding Hao's hand, "You've been busy for half a month, let's take a good rest today." ”
After finishing speaking, Huang Qian actually threw the tracker that had not yet been finished into her imaginary space.
"Well, that's what you said." For Huang Qian's move, Ding Hao was stunned for a second, and then lay down on the ground with relief: "Anyway, it's almost over, and it's not too late." ”
In the past ten days, it is necessary to assemble a precise tracker and guard against all kinds of possible accidents, and now Ding Hao is very tired, and it is good to be able to take a rest.
"Go get some sleep first, I'll keep vigil tonight." Looking at Ding Hao's appearance, Huang Qian felt a little distressed.
"No, I just need ...... Just lie down a little bit. Ding Hao shook his head at Huang Qian's proposal, he had undergone bioaugmentation surgery, and this fatigue could recover quickly.
"Okay then." Looking at Ding Hao's appearance, Huang Qian suddenly reached out and grabbed Ding Hao's armor and lifted him up slightly, and then let Ding Hao pilllow on his thigh, "This should make you more comfortable." ”
Although both of them are wearing power exoskeletons, the outermost layer of armor can change the degree of softness and hardness at will, whether it can be as hard as a diamond or as soft as a sponge, so Ding Hao fell asleep not long after lying down.
"It's the same as when I was a kid." Looking at Ding Hao's sleeping face, Huang Qian couldn't help but think of the days in the barracks before, when Ding Hao was still a little kid, now he is so old, and he has that kind of relationship with himself, thinking about it, a shy expression gradually appeared on his face.
Time passed with the crackling of the campfire, and in the middle of the moon, a terrible scream suddenly resounded throughout the camp.
Huang Qian was pleasantly surprised by this scream from her memory, turned her head to look at the direction where the scream came, and then looked down at Ding Hao who was pillowing on her lap, the two looked at each other, and Ding Hao was also awakened from his sleep by this scream.
"Got you?" Huang Qian said.
"It's okay, after all, I can't sleep too hard when I'm away from home." Ding Hao rubbed his eyes and sat up: "It sounds like something happened, do you want to go and see?" ”
The location of the accident was the westernmost part of the camp, and when the two arrived here, they found that there was already a circle of people. By listening to the conversations of the people around them, Ding Hao and Huang Qian learned that it was a female thief who screamed, and that the deceased was her teammate, a warrior. She was originally going to change shifts with her teammates who were on guard in the middle of the night.,It turned out that her teammates actually died quietly in the position of the vigil.,And what's even more terrifying is that the two are less than 5 meters apart.,One of them died and the other didn't know.。。
"Is there anyone who will perform an autopsy? Let's find out how the hell this guy died! At this time, it was the deputy leader of the Scarlet Rose Adventure Group, this is a female human hunter with a hot body, and her years of adventure have made her accustomed to seeing life and death, plus she doesn't know the dead, so she is still very calm at this time.
Soon came two thieves who specialized in skinning, and the two thieves quickly removed the armor from the deceased's body, and then searched for the location of the fatal wound, only to find a thin thorn in the deceased's neck, and no other wounds.
"A thin thorn?" The deputy head of the scarlet rose took the thorn and looked at it carefully, this thorn was 10 centimeters long, made of some kind of bone polished, hard and strong, and then the deputy head sniffed the smell of it, sure enough, in addition to the smell of blood, there was a very faint sweet smell, after smelling this smell, the deputy head of the group pulled out his dagger and cut the blood vessels on the deceased's arm in the surprised eyes of the people around him.
No blood came out, because the blood of the deceased had turned into a jelly-like solid.
"I'm in trouble now......" Looking at the coagulated blood, the deputy head of the Scarlet Rose showed a solemn expression on his face, as a senior thief, she is also very proficient in poison, she can see at a glance that this is a very violent blood-clotting toxoid, and the stinger on his hand has made it clear that this warrior did not die by some hellish accident, but was deliberately killed.
So who would kill such a mercenary? The first thing that the deputy head thought of was vendetta, that is, there were people in this team who had a grudge against the deceased, but this was not easy to explain, because there were so many people who didn't do it when they passed through the grassland swamp before, but when they passed through the swamp, they killed everyone when they were resting, which was a bit unreasonable.
The other object of suspicion is the creatures in the ruins, perhaps they have come out of the ruins and run everywhere.
The thought of countless pairs of vicious eyes staring at him in the darkness gave the deputy head goosebumps all over his body. But now the main problem is how to suppress this toxin, because this kind of coagulating toxin can be blended from the juice of ordinary plants, without any magical elements, so the dispelling spells of the healing profession have little effect on it, or even completely ineffective, the only way to restrain it is to let those alchemists reverse crack the antidote by studying this toxin, but this is not an easy thing.
"Is there anyone who knows alchemy?" Thinking of this, the deputy head of the Scarlet Rose pinched the stinger and shouted loudly, after all, it is not easy to have a glimmer of hope, it is better than waiting to be killed.
"What do you think about this?" Watching several senior alchemists carry the stiff corpse away, Huang Qian asked Ding Hao.
"I don't know, if it's not an inner ghost, it's the owner here who is very dissatisfied with our arrival." Ding Hao said: "But it seems that the other party may not know what our strength is, so let's kill someone tonight to test the water and see what our reaction is." ”
"What if there's not a big reaction?" Huang Qian asked.
"If the response doesn't hurt, then try again." Ding Hao shrugged: "By the way, did you see Catherine and Lily?" ”
When Ding Hao found Catherine and Lily, they had just gotten up from the bed, and their faces were still tired. These two guys also have big hearts, and they can sleep so hard in the dangerous wilderness.
"Ah~" Catherine yawned, rubbed her eyes and looked at Ding Hao: "What happened just now?" Why is it so noisy? ”
"It's nothing, it's just a dead person." Ding Hao said lightly.
"Dead ...... Dead person? Hearing Ding Hao say this, Catherine woke up in an instant, and the hair on Lily's tail also swelled. What's going on? ”
"There was a soldier who was on vigil, and during the shift change, he was found dead, with a poisonous needle in his neck." Ding Hao took out two silver-white needles from the imaginary space and handed them to Catherine and Lily: "This is the antidote, if you are pricked by some strange thorns, don't think about it, immediately inject the medicine inside into your body." ”
This needle is filled with medical nanorobots, which can decompose all substances harmful to the body at the molecular level, so that people are immune to poison and disease to a certain extent. (To be continued.) )
