Chapter 305: The Core of Life and the Secret of the Virus

"Yes, the core of life." Looking at Zhou Yulong's anxious appearance, Qingyuan smiled slightly and said, "That pile of treasures is for the Atlanteans who have entered the first stage of the coming-of-age ceremony, so there are a lot of things about enlightenment. For example, the life potion is one of the treasures. And the most important of these is a small book of enlightenment. The Code of Enlightenment contains some outlines of the Atlantean civilization, such as their origins, their history, and the most important thing about the life of the Atlanteans, the core of life. ”

"About the most important thing in their lives? Could it be that this core of life has another useful purpose? Hearing this, Zhou Yulong couldn't help but secretly figure it out in his heart. Although the life core in his hand can open abilities and evolve for people, it should not be the most important thing.

"That's right, the greatest use of this core of life is his word 'life'. Strengthening the body and activating abilities are only incidental. After glancing at Zhou Yulong enviously, Monk Qingyuan continued: "According to the Enlightenment Codex, the core of life was evolved over a long period of time after the Atlanteans used the 'Apocalypse' gene to implant it in their bodies. This crystal nucleus is extremely useful and an excellent power source, providing a continuous supply of life energy to the Atlanteans. As long as the crystal nucleus is not depleted, the Atlanteans will never die. And even if they die, they can use the depleted crystal nuclei to regenerate genes, so that they can get the effect of resurrecting the dead. ”

"It's so powerful, so why didn't I feel such a powerful effect after implanting it in my body?" Recalling the scene when he was cut all over his body by the dog and the pig, Zhou Yulong couldn't help but question.

"I don't know, after all, everything I know is only recorded in the Enlightenment Code." Qingyuan shook his head, then seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked, "How big is that life core of yours?" ”

"It's probably that big......" Zhou Yulong compared the size of a red date with his hand, and said, "Could it be that this core of life is still big and small?" ”

"I see, the one you get is called the Spark of Life, not the Core of Life." Glancing at Zhou Yulong, Monk Qingyuan said with a little regret: "According to the legal records, a qualified life core should be as big as a heart. And those smaller than the heart are all called life fires, that is, incomplete life crystal nuclei. The effect of this kind of fire is much smaller than that of crystal nuclei, but they are still as protective of life. For the Atlanteans, as long as the fire is not extinguished, they can be resurrected again. Congratulations, you now have this trait. ”

"Hey, that's going to have the Atlantean genetic regeneration technology." Zhou Yulong shook his head and said disappointedly: "I don't expect that one day after I die, the Atlanteans will find out and save me. But at this time, he suddenly remembered the core of life absorbed by Li Bingru. The size of that crystal nucleus was nearly the size of a heart, so it was no wonder why Li Bingru recovered from her injuries so quickly and turned on her abilities.

"Hehe, with your potential, junior brother, maybe one day you can directly kill the base in Atlantis, and then seize this technology." Liao Xuebing laughed and said, "Don't forget to find a spark for your senior brother when the time comes, haha......"

"Senior brother, you're making fun of me again. If one day I have the ability to kill the Atlantis base, I'm afraid no one can kill me. Zhou Yulong shook his head, then turned his head to Monk Qingyuan, and asked with a serious face: "Master, I want to ask, is this kind of life core or life fire can only be conceived in the body of the Atlanteans?" ”

"It's written in the books, and they have a long gestation cycle. It often takes several years or even more than ten years to condense into a crystal nucleus. So this kind of crystal nucleus is also very precious to them. Monk Qingyuan nodded and replied.

After listening to Qingyuan's words, Zhou Yulong frowned and pondered for a moment, and then said in a condensed voice: "That's right, after listening to the master's words, I may know why the Atlanteans didn't poison us humans at once."

"Oh? What is the opinion of the junior brother (Zhou Shizhu)? Hearing Zhou Yulong's words, Liao Xuebing and Monk Qingyuan asked questions at the same time.

"It's because of this core of life!" Zhou Yulong took a deep breath and said slowly: "I didn't tell you at first, in fact, I am not the only one who got the crystal nucleus, but also my girlfriend Li Bingru, whose ability was also opened from the crystal nucleus. And these crystal nuclei are what we get from mutant beasts and mutant corpses, respectively. ”

"What? From mutant beasts and mutant zombies? Hearing Zhou Yulong's answer, Liao Xuebing and Qingyuan were both startled and shouted, "How can there be such a thing in the body of zombies and mutant beasts?" ”

"I don't know, but it's there." Zhou Yulong shook his head and slowly told the two of them about his experience of encountering giant corpses and mutant beasts. However, as for the number of crystal nuclei, he still deliberately concealed it. After all, the crystal nucleus is tempting, and no one can guarantee how the dragon group will react when they know the news.

"So, only a very small number of mutant zombies and mutant beasts will have this blue life core?" After Zhou Yulong finished talking about the matter, Monk Qingyuan immediately asked.

"At present, there are very few crystal nuclei." Zhou Yulong nodded and said, "However, since the crystal nucleus can be produced in mutant beasts and mutant corpses, then the evolutionary gene we are talking about is likely to be the 'Apocalypse' gene recorded in the Enlightenment Codex. In that case, it is clear why the Atlanteans did not poison us. Speaking of this, a look of anger appeared on Zhou Yulong's face, and he snorted: "Hmph, they bastards treat the earth as their own farm!" And we're the hens that give birth to crystal nuclei! ”

"No wonder the Atlanteans fought us with little fanfare, it turns out that they are not afraid of humans, but they regard us humans as machines to make the core of life!" Hearing this, Monk Qingyuan couldn't help but be furious, smashed the entire wooden table with one palm, and scolded angrily: "It's really a Buddha and a fire, these Atlanteans, it's really fucking damned!" ”

"It's useless to scold this now, the most important thing now is to notify the Dragon Group immediately. Do your best to find mutant giants and blue-eyed mutants. If we can find a few more life crystal nuclei and study the mysteries in them, our human survival chances will be greatly improved. Liao Xuebing shook his head and said, "The Atlanteans should still be sitting and watching the tiger fight now, taking advantage of this opportunity." We should have done it sooner rather than later, and we should have turned on abilities and evolution for more of the Dragon's elite. ”

"Yes, when this happens, the old man will personally go and inform the Dragon King." Monk Qingyuan exhaled a deep breath and said, "Huh, our group of old and immortal guys should also go out and do a big job." ”

"Okay, that's it." Zhou Yulong nodded and agreed: "Just do it, I'll look everywhere tomorrow, with the help of this little guy Yuhuang, the probability of me finding the mutant beast will be much higher than yours." If I can't deal with the mutant beasts I find, I'll let you know when the time comes. ”

"Okay, then there's the Lord of Lao Zhou." Monk Qingyuan nodded, and pronounced a Buddha name: "Amitabha, I hope that human beings can find the opportunity of the crystal nucleus as soon as possible and escape this catastrophe." ”

"Alright, that's pretty much the matter, I should go outside and see the boys." When the matter was decided, Liao Xuebing began to get up and walk out the door. The big war and the take-in in the past few days have kept the base busy, so just in case, he should pay more attention.

"Okay, then the old man will explain the ability to Master Zhou." Monk Qingyuan nodded, then ignored Liao Xuebing, who was leaving, and began to explain the mystery of the ability to Zhou Yulong word by word.

With the soft sound of Liao Xuebing closing the door, only the muttering monk Qingyuan and Zhou Yulong who were listening intently were left in the entire conference room.
