Chapter 512: Strange Things
Q4R5F1 3 h : V thing? Roland was stunned for a moment, then looked up and thought, "How long have you said recently?" ”
"Probably...... In recent years, right? Qian Cangyi said a relatively broad time.
"That's too much, how do I remember." Roland answered the question without thinking.
Qian Cangyi pressed his temple, "Can you say one or two?" ”
"I remember the time two years ago, a meteorite fell from the sky and almost lit up half of the sky, and it was very hot to discuss it all over the country at that time. Because the landing was in a no-man's land, there were no casualties and property damage, so people gradually downplayed the matter. Roland seemed to have something in mind.
"There were a lot of conjectures at the time, and you can find them on the interchange now, and I remember someone specially sorted them out. You wait, I'll help you log in, you can take care of it yourself. Are you interested in this kind of thing, though? Roland logged in to help Qian Cangyi, and then began to search for relevant information.
"See for yourself." After handing the sand table in his hand to Qian Cangyi, Roland continued to do his own thing.
Qian Cangyi did not answer, but began to watch the relevant materials.
One day two years ago, the sky was suddenly illuminated by a dazzling blue light, and the originally blue sky suddenly became extremely eerie, and more importantly, at this moment, many people had a feeling of fear in their hearts, more precisely, the feeling that the end of the world was coming.
It's just that this feeling quickly disappeared, and most people are in a state of indifference, except for a few who are still interested in the matter.
And when the meteorite was found, there was a renewed wave of discussion about it, and many analytical posts began to appear, and some people even wrote short stories based on this vision.
Later, as more hot news emerged, the discussion about the incident was only talked to by a small number of people.
"It's really suspicious, could it be that it is some kind of creature or some kind of virus brought by the meteorite, and the people of the ancient country of Coupal didn't care, or the high-level didn't care but didn't find a solution, considering that the spread of the news would cause panic, so they chose cold treatment, and at the same time secretly created ways to prolong their lives, such as freezing, hoping to avoid this disaster." Qian Jiangyue said after reading it.
"No, did you forget? Wen Chengzhi asked us to come back here, not so that we could change what had happened, but to find out why the ancient kingdom of Gubel had perished. If that's the reason, then we don't need to look for it, do we? Wen Chengzhi would definitely know that since he was able to set up something related to soul markings in our souls in advance through alchemy, then he must have known about it as well. Qian Cangyi vetoed Qian Jiangyue's speculation.
"Roland said that there are a lot of strange things, and the word strange is very intriguing. It's not strange that natural disasters occur, and it's not strange that man-made disasters occur, so what is strange? I think it may be necessary to add two consecutive words, and if natural and man-made disasters occur frequently, and the cause has not been found, and there is no solution, in this case, I think it can be called strange. Hawkeye gave his opinion.
"Definitely. However, for the time being, we will not use the exchange to find relevant information, and the investigation may need to be postponed for another week, in addition, why does Wen Chengzhi still not contact us? Maybe we can get some clues from him. Qian Cangyi didn't think that Wen Chengzhi would leave it alone.
Because when dealing with the three of them, Wen Chengzhi also spent a lot of thought, plus he wanted to know the reason, so he must maintain a certain contact, otherwise...... If the three of them find out the cause but can't contact him, won't all his efforts be in vain?
……
At the same time, in an ordinary house in Dusty Sand.
An old man in a loose black robe walked into the basement, locked the door, and lit the room with the candlelight in his hand.
Judging by the items in the room, this is a laboratory.
"Alas, or failed, is it true that souls that exist alone cannot be fused? Can't even the souls of the same kind be fused? Is the soul really that special? Why is it the only one that doesn't follow the basic rules? Is this hinting at something? The old man shook his head and reached out to sweep aside the items on the lab table.
Then he took out a small cage from under his robe, and inside the cage were very cute little mice, but the two rats were motionless, as if they were held in place by some force.
The old man touched the cage lightly, and the white rats in the cage immediately scurried around, but no matter how they ran, they couldn't escape from this small cage.
"Two boxes of high-grade polyps, the forked tail of the moonlit cat, and ......" The old man continued to take out some strange items from his robe, "Alas, they are all some original products that have not been treated, and they need to be handled by themselves, and there are no tools, what a trouble......"
Soul testing was forbidden in the ancient kingdom of Gooper, and was only allowed to be carried out by officially designated institutions.
In the experiment on souls, soul fusion is explicitly forbidden for any alchemist to try, but the problem is that the reason for the ban has never been officially announced.
As the study of souls progressed more and more slowly, some alchemists set their sights on soul fusion, which is a forbidden path, but it does not mean that this path is wrong.
So far, at least, the alchemists who have tried secretly have not found a result that would make them give up.
"Cryofreeze for two hours, and then ......," the old man began to process the items he had brought in, but at this moment, there was a slight noise outside the door, which was very small, but it could not be ignored after being amplified, and the old man, who was extremely sensitive to the environment, noticed that something was wrong.
He frowned, no longer handling the original item in his hand, and instead began to use alchemy powder to draw an alchemy circle on the table.
Operating with both hands at the same time, with the circle as the base, several five-pointed stars and six-pointed stars intertwined, when everything was done, the old man hurriedly put all the items he brought in into the alchemy array, including the two mice.
The door to the basement began to open.
The old man pressed his hands on the alchemy array, and his mouth emitted awkward syllables, which were very difficult for Qian Cangyi to grasp when he was learning the language of Coupal.
The alchemy array began to glow white.
The old man withdrew his hands, and red flames poured out from the alchemy array, and the items in the alchemy array also began to burn, no, more precisely, releasing energy.
The flames rushed all the way to the ceiling and finally disappeared completely.
In the center of the alchemy array, there was only a cloud of black dust left, and it was impossible to see what it was.
"City Safety Agency." The five of them walked into the basement and showed their documents at the same time, "Star Ring Alchemist You Ze, you have violated the safety rules related to alchemy experiments, please be investigated." ”
The old man stretched out his hands and did not explain anything.
