170 Underground Research Institute
"Brother Mo, why are you picking up the pebbles?" Looking at Su Mo's movements, Ma Hao asked puzzledly, compared to his brother, he is more active, and when he encounters something incomprehensible, he likes to ask questions, and his awakening ability is related to his eyes, and he sees a lot of things, so there are many questions.

"Xiao Hao, do you see clearly, is this really a pebble?" Su Mo spread out his palm, and the swarthy stone lay quietly in his palm.
"yes." Ma Hao looked at the black stone and said, "A very beautiful pebble." ”
It's really strange, in the face of the swarthy stone, Ma Hao opened his eyes wide, saying that it was a pebble, but there was something even more outrageous, Ma Sheng was not far behind and interjected, "What a pebble, it's obviously a piece of granite, and the lines are stacked together, very neat." ”
Well, three people on a stone can see three looks, it's really weird.
However, Su Mo was not surprised at all, because what he held in his hand was the magic stone that was used as a hard currency among wizards. It's just that this piece is smaller, not a standard magic stone, and looking at its fracture, it doesn't look like it fell off naturally, but caused by some external force.
Looking at the magic stone in his hand, Su Mo thought thoughtfully, and then he began to circle around the big pit, and from time to time he also rubbed a few clumps of weeds and threw them into the deep pit to investigate the situation.
After several explorations, Su Mo found that the entire pit was small at the bottom and large at the entrance, and the ruins of the surrounding buildings were also radial, scattering from the center to the outside.
All kinds of factors made Su Mo confirm the guess in his heart, this pit should be caused by the explosion, and it was an explosion from the inside.
According to his inference, this was supposed to be a magic stone mine, but for some unknown reason, this magic stone mine exploded, and finally formed the current big pit. And the magic stone he picked up was the remnant of the big explosion.
"Magic Stone Vein, Explode!" Looking at the deep pit, Su Mo muttered to himself, these two things made him vaguely have a guess in his heart, but because of insufficient knowledge, he could not form a complete chain.
Su Mo fell into his own deep thought, but the Ma brothers were not idle, the elder brother was quiet and calm, silently guarding the side to prevent disturbance and sneak attacks, while the younger brother was eyes flashing with a glimmer, looking around, the world took on another form in his eyes, which made him curious.
"Forget it, don't think about it, let's take a look at this place first." Su Mo let out a sigh, "Xiao Sheng, Xiao Hao, you guys are waiting here, I'll go down and take a look." ”
"Okay." The two brothers nodded.
Coming to the edge of the pit, Su Mo jumped down directly, and the broken wall flashed quickly in front of his eyes, but in a few seconds, he fell to the predetermined position.
Poof!
With a crisp sound, Su Mo's arm was like a steel knife cutting tofu, directly into the wall. Then he quickly paddled down half a meter and finally stopped.
Relying on the support of his arm, Su Mo crawled into the cave. As soon as he stood inside, he felt the breath of artificiality, the whole passage was square, surrounded by hard metal, because there was no light, he couldn't see what color it was, but it was cold and hard to the touch, it should not be ordinary steel.
Dada!
Walking in the metal passage, Su Mo was cautiously guarded, the situation here was unknown, and he didn't know if there was any danger. After walking about twenty meters, he came across a door, and the checkpoint that was supposed to be closed was now open.
When he walked here, Su Mo felt that his love was a little strange, he squatted down and touched it, it turned out to be a stack of paper, very ordinary printing paper.
After passing this level, Su Mo walked all the way, the ground was full of documents and papers, and he also came across several lodging corpses, the flesh on which had long since rotted, leaving only the miserable white bones.
It seemed to be a meeting place, and the circular hall had several doors, some open and some still closed, and the doors were so tightly closed that one could not temper oneself.
After wandering around for a while, after collecting the paper on the ground, Su Mo didn't stay long, and hurriedly returned to the ground, the Ma brothers were still waiting for him, and the situation of this underground base was unknown, so let's learn some information from these papers first.
Returning along the same path, Su Mo quickly came to the ground, lit the torch, and looked closely.
Although there is a slight glimmer in the sky now, it is only barely able to make people see, but it is not possible to read documents or anything at all, this is still in the open field, if you go to the dense forest, almost all of it is pitch black, if there are no fluorescent mushrooms that grow almost everywhere, even the awakened will not dare to enter.
The paper was full of lead letters, and all of them were printed with experimental analyses and data, but none of them were coherent, and many of them were burned, and it could only be judged by a few nouns that this seemed to be a secret research base for biological directions.
The experimental materials were useless, but a half-destroyed diary could make Su Mo know a lot.
"On August 15th, the weather was fine, the experiment failed, and Subject 193 died."
"On August 21st, the weather was cloudy, the experiment failed, and Subject 204 died."
"On August 27th, the weather was cloudy, and the experiment process went wrong due to some inexplicable fluctuation, which led to the failure of the experiment, and the death of Subject 251."
The series of failures obviously affected the mood of the diary owner, and even the handwriting was a little sloppy, but Su Mo felt something unusual from it.
The failure of the last experiment was apparently different from the previous ones, when the aura had already permeated the Earth's air, which led to the failure of the experiment at this research base.
Su Mo continued to turn back, and on the second page, he saw the second day of September, which was the day when the aura completely exploded and the sun disappeared.
"On September 2nd, the weather was fine, for some reason, the sun suddenly disappeared, and at the moment of disappearance, the brainwave detector and the life magnetic field detector all burst out with a burst of fire, which was completely destroyed.
The records after that were basically not written down in time, they were all written in a hurry by the owner of the diary, and the scribbled handwriting was almost impossible for Su Mo to read, and he could only read it with guesswork.
"........Oh my God, what the hell is going on, how did Subject 187 become so horrible that he broke through the observation chamber and killed the researcher who was conducting the experiment......."
“…… The sun disappeared again, and the director was ready to completely seal the laboratory and leave here at the behest of the Jiangcheng government, but I didn't want to leave, I had contributed here for half my life, and I really couldn't just give up! ”
"..........I stayed with a few colleagues who were old and didn't have anything to worry about to continue the experiment."
“……… Oh my God, what happened to the No. 93 test subject, how could there be such a change........... no, the experiment can't continue, the world is changing too fast, and if the test subjects are allowed to change, I'm afraid the whole country will be in danger, and it must be sealed here. ”
Turning another page, the diary is at the end, and the back is gone, and this last piece of the diary is written in blood, crooked, and the handwriting is very light.
"..........I'm dying, but fortunately, all the test subjects have been injected with corrosive liquid and completely destroyed, except for test specimen No. 93, but he has been sealed by me in Laboratory No. 4, don't open it......."
At this point, the handwriting is already very light, and there is something behind it, but it is no longer clear. However, these are almost enough for Su Mo to understand each other.
Obviously, the aura outbreak affected the experiments here, causing uncontrollable changes in the test subjects, and finally having to destroy all the test subjects.
After reading it, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief, the aura exploded, the impact of the arrival of the end times is in all aspects, the national economy and people's livelihood are there, the underground research institute here is just a microcosm, such things are emerging all over the country and even around the world, this time it just let Su Mo touch it.
After a general understanding, Su Mo decided in his heart to take this place as his base, first, it is very safe here, it is more than ten meters underground, and the whole body is cast by high-strength alloy, as long as the entrance and exit are blocked, the defense is extremely stable.
The second is that this was a research institute before, and it was still a biological researcher, and everything of the instrument data had been sealed by the evacuated researchers, so it should be able to save some of it, just so that he could carry out his own research.
These two reasons made Su Mo put the future survival base here, but he still needed to clean up in the early stage, after all, judging from the diary, there were still some mutated experiments here that had not been solved.
Su Mo's ability is relatively lacking, only three spells for the spirit, and strong melee ability, but his melee is completely achieved by physical fitness, once he encounters a monster that is comparable, he can only be abused, because he can't fully exert his powerful body.
Therefore, he needs to prepare for possible dangers, which is also a preparation plan he made when he was on the West Coast, after preventing the Cycle of Everything skill from being invalid, but he didn't expect to really use it.
Clicking on the attribute panel, Su Mo opened the long skill bar, swept all the way, and finally locked on to a skill-basic demonized item manufacturing.
In the past three days, due to the need to survive, Su Mo hunted a lot of monsters, and the blood did not change, even if he did, he might not be able to fight, but there were a lot of them in the heart source stage, and he had accumulated some special parts.
For example, the heart, the brain, the paws, the fur, etc.
On the West Coast, if an apprentice wants to make a demonized item, he needs to transform the parts of the body of the demonic creature that are associated with energy, and the analogy to the monsters on the earth is the heart.
The demonic creatures or ancient species on the West Coast want to emit various innate abilities, but they need to consume their own stored energy particles, while the monsters of the earth are their own qi and blood. In addition to this, the other aspects are much the same, all of which are adapted to local conditions, and different techniques are used according to the different parts obtained.
But the principle remains basically the same, and it is all about stimulating the ability left by the creature at once. Therefore, after investing a lot of experience to rush the basic demonized item manufacturing to the highest level of tenth, Su Mo successfully produced the first one-time demonized item after only one day of research.
It was a black heart, and some strange lines appeared on the surface of the heart, which looked weird. This is obtained by Su Mo after killing a monster that can release black flames, this kind of flame is very weird, the temperature is about the same as ordinary flames, hundreds of degrees, but it has a very strong characteristic, the creatures burned by the flames will feel very strong pain, the kind of pain that does not want to live.
If Su Mo didn't have strong spiritual power and high will, he might not be able to kill this monster under this kind of pain.
After having the first successful product, the next one went very smoothly, and the remaining four hearts were all made into one-time consumption magic items by Su Mo, with various attributes, which greatly enhanced his way of dealing with different situations.
After properly arranging the Ma family brothers and letting them hide, Su Mo came to the hall again alone.
The institute is in a fan-shaped structure, starting from this hall, and connecting to different functional areas at the back, including storage areas, living areas, and data areas. As for the monitoring and command center, it should be in the previous big explosion.
There are more than a dozen doors on one wall of the hall, most of which are open, and only three are still closed, which are all experimental areas. The power is cut off, and it can only be done manually by conventional means and if it can't be turned on.
Fortunately, because this situation was considered, the institute set up a manual opening method.
Holding the torch, Su Mo looked at the number 8 written on the gate, and then groped back and forth on the side, then touched the trigger, pulled it hard, released the lock, and then used almost half of his strength to push the gate open.
This is also Su Mo, if it is another person, even if he knows the manual opening method, he will not be able to open the door at all.
Bang!
Holding the torch, Su Mo pushed open the heavy door, and the rumbling sound kept echoing in the air, making people feel a little hairy.
A strange smell came from the surface, it seemed to be musty, and it seemed to be the smell of rancid food, which was very unpleasant.
By the light of the fire, Su Mo walked over slowly, and after passing by a few rooms, he came to the front of the rows of petri dishes. Some of the vertical cylindrical glass dishes are broken, some are not.
There were no test subjects in the petri dish that was still intact, and all of them were decomposed cleanly, except for a large number of dense black dots, as if they were breeding microorganisms.
Su Mo turned around, and didn't find any danger, even the broken petri dish had a large amount of black ashes next to it, which was obviously left behind after the death of the test subject, and with a kick of his foot, it drifted away.
In addition to the No. 8 experimental area, Su Mo came to No. 6, and after opening it in the same way, he stepped in again, this time the smell was completely different from the previous staleness, in addition to the smell of a lot of rot, there was also a trace of blood.
The smell of blood?
Su Mo walked in cautiously, but what he saw was a messy scene, with severed limbs and bones everywhere, and claws and heads scattered all over the ground. He just looked at it and deduced that it had happened here.
Obviously, the test specimens here were not all destroyed as the diary owner had expected, and a large number of test specimens escaped, but they were blocked by the heavy floodgates, and after a long lack of food, they had to start cannibalism, and they all died not long ago.
"It saved me a lot of trouble." Su Mo looked around, then went out again, and came to the No. 4 gate, where the diary marked the dangerous area.
Su Mo settled down and opened the door.
