Chapter 1038 - "Stuck in the Wall"
As Chu Guang had predicted, this monster from the Void was not invincible.
Not only that, but he also understood another thing.
Whether this monster is from a corner of this universe, or the so-called creator universe of the pioneer civilization, they are not qualified to look down on this world-
They are looking down on each other!
When he picked up the nitrogen-powered hammer for the second time and slammed it into the shoulders of the Death Lizard with a thunderous thunderbolt, the scales as deep as a black hole instantly opened and flesh burst open, and the shattered flesh soared like a shrapnel towards the corridors and ceilings behind it.
"Roaring ——!"
The Death Lizard wriggled its massive body and staggered backwards, its soybean-like eyes full of horror.
It couldn't believe that this guy in front of him, who didn't look much bigger than the other little mice, had such terrifying powers!
It's not even just power –
This guy's reaction speed and composure when facing it are not like they belong to this universe.
Could it be—
He, like himself, also comes from the Void?!
It's too late to keep thinking.
The whistling hammer enveloped the raging air current, and in an instant, it smashed into its face again!
It tried to resist, and several times in quick turns, dodging the fatal blow, then its throat surged forward, and a mouthful of dark phlegm spurted into the blue can.
However, its little caution did not escape Chu Guang's eyes.
Looking at the thick phlegm that flew in, Chu Guang did not hesitate in his hand, and the falling hammer smashed on the floor!
"Boom ——!"
The furious air flow is released in an instant!
It's as if the whole corridor has been bombarded with 155mm heavy artillery!
The roar of the explosion of twisted steel and shattered wreckage tore down, swept forward with the surging airflow, and in a split second, the black sputum evaporated, and then exploded into the mouth-opening death monitor lizard!
"Whew!!"
The face of the death monitor lizard was like a big ear scraper, and the huge front half of its body was actually erected by the surging airflow!
The moment the forefoot left the ground, the huge beast immediately realized that something was wrong, and panicked and wanted to press down to protect the relatively weak lower plate.
However, its movements are clearly a step slower.
The blue armor pierced through the smoke, and the moment it saw the steel boots, a hammer like a cannonball had blasted into its abdomen!
There's no room to dodge and maneuver.
It could only watch as the hammer swept across it, slamming firmly into its chest.
"Boom ——!"
The nitrogen gas compressed to the extreme was like a razor-edged battle axe, splitting its internal organs in one step before cutting its flesh and bones!
This time it couldn't even scream, and its locomotive-sized body was torn in two, slamming into the shattered floor with a deafening thud.
The winner seems to have been decided.
Looking at the hind limbs that were separated from the body, only the two forefeet were left hanging on the ground, and the death monitor lizard no longer had the unbeatable bravery it had before, and a sobbing of fear squeezed out of its bloody throat.
"Whew-"
Chu Guang looked down at it, but instead of seeing the eyes begging for mercy, he saw that the dark red flesh buds were pouring out of the front half of its body, writhing and growing backwards, trying to grow out the lost half of its body.
As for the back half of the body, which was separated from the head, it also grew dark red flesh buds, but it didn't last long, and it gave up after twisting for a while and not finding the head.
Just as he expected.
This guy's regenerative ability is not without limits, and the growth rate this time is significantly slower than before.
But this guy is also ruthless enough, and he can still grow back after being cut off in the waist.
Where does the organic matter needed for growth come from?
"What kind of monster the hell are you?" Chu Guang stared at it and spoke.
The beast didn't answer, just stared at him in horror with soybean-like eyes.
That look seemed to say, you are a monster.
However, Chu Guang didn't want to argue with him about this issue anymore, tightened the war hammer in his hand, and walked towards it in an orderly manner.
"I don't think you can speak human words."
If only there was psionic power.
However, even if you have psychic powers, you may not be able to communicate.
The Domes were able to communicate with the plants of the planet Gaia because they lived in the forest, and they were not necessarily able to communicate with the less intelligent creatures on Earth.
To put it in materialism, this particular way of conveying information must be based on resonance, and there are many ways to form resonance.
Just when Chu Guang gave up the intention of communicating and picked up the hammer and was about to shoot this monster into a specimen, the mouth that opened and closed actually spat out.
"Don't ...... Kill me......"
Chu Guang stopped what he was doing, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
"Can you speak human language?"
Looks like this guy is really getting caught in the eye.
"Your ...... Language...... It's troublesome...... Will be a little. ”
As if to buy time, and as if just to get away from him, the lizard twisted its upper body and stepped back, speaking in a hoarse voice.
"I've seen ...... Many...... Something similar to you...... You are the strongest ......"
Chu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't care about its small movements, he stared at it with interest and continued to ask.
"You've seen a lot of people like me?"
The Death Lizard gasped.
"Yes...... They...... Some...... Same with you. Yes, with swords, armor. They...... They all say different things......"
This sentence is quite informative.
Chu Guang frowned slightly, stared at it and said.
"You mean, you've been to a lot of worlds?"
The death monitor lizard nodded slightly, and the pupils of the yellow beans were written in disbelief, staring at him in disbelief.
"Yes...... Wait, what do you mean...... You haven't been? Other universes? ”
Chu Guang wanted to say no, but soon remembered that it didn't seem accurate to say so.
He's been there.
It was even originally crossed, but the physical body didn't come with it.
"I don't quite understand what you're talking about, but if you tell me what you know, I might consider sparing your life."
The Death Lizard grinned suddenly, as if the monster in front of it was suddenly no longer threatening.
However, it was only for a moment.
It seemed to think of something, and its eyes became jealous again, unwilling to say another word.
“…… Then I don't have much to say to you...... Bye...... Ugly Homo erectus ...... The hairless kind. ”
It seemed to be the most vicious curse it could come up with, but it sounded lethal.
Rather than a few innocuous curses, Chu Guang cared more about the information it revealed from the previous sentence.
What does this guy mean...... Has it been to many different universes?
It sounds a bit ridiculous.
However, Chu Guang quickly remembered the matter of Nanmen Er, as well as his own matter.
To say something ridiculous -
Is there anything more ridiculous than "player"?
Just as he was thinking, the flesh bud that writhed at the wound of the Death monitor lizard suddenly stopped growing.
The energy that supported its regeneration seemed to have finally been exhausted, and it seemed that some being hiding behind it thought that it was meaningless to continue to hold on, and it swallowed its last breath completely.
Chu Guang stared at it, frowning slightly, and did not let his guard down.
After all, no one can say whether this will be some kind of clumsy trick.
The dust drifting around gradually settled, and the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from the other side of the hallway.
Several players wearing heavy exoskeletons arrive through the entrance to the elevator, followed by two officers of the Guards Regiment.
Looking at the messy corridor, the three scrapped power armors that had been cut into eight pieces, and the lizard that had lost its breath, the expressions on everyone's faces became more and more exciting.
There is shock, there is consternation, there is regret that you missed the hidden mission, and there is incredible surprise.
"it!"
"I haven't made a move yet!"
"boSS was seconds?!"
"Brother Guang is awesome!!"
"Gan! My chance!! ”
"What's the matter?"
The players were arguing, and the two NPC officers were completely stunned.
Obviously, they didn't expect the manager to be here at all, and they didn't expect this monster that even the fifth-stage awakened people were helpless to be solved by this adult.
Although they want to remind managers to pay attention to safety out of duty, this sentence seems redundant no matter how you look at it.
At this time, there was the sound of chains pulling in the safety passage.
As the alarm was lifted, the researchers waiting in the safe passage immediately raised the fire curtain and returned to the messy hallway.
"Oh my God...... Is there a nuclear bomb blown up here? Belch...... Chu, Chu Guang?! ”
Looking at Chu Guang, who was standing at the "center of the explosion", Yin Fang, who was the first to return to the corridor, was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say for a while with his mouth open.
Untying the mask of the helmet, Chu Guang smiled at him, glanced at the person behind him again, and said in a gentle tone.
"The people in the institute are not hurt."
"No......" Yin Fang shook his head, noticed the three corpses in the corridor, his Adam's apple moved, lowered his head and said, "...... I'm sorry. ”
"Nothing to be sorry for, lift your head and chest."
Putting the war hammer in his hand behind him, Chu Guang looked at Yin Fang with shame on his face and the group of researchers who had survived the catastrophe and continued.
"You have done a great job of minimizing human losses in the face of an unprecedented security situation, and this evacuation can serve as a model for other institutes to learn from, and you should be proud."
Yin Fang: "But ......"
"Risk prevention is not about eliminating risk, and no one can eliminate risk. If every researcher had to apologize for unforeseen circumstances and take responsibility for losses outside of their duties, then it would be safest to do any research and write reports in their offices. ”
Walking to the side of the safe passage, Chu Guang patted the dust on his shoulder and said in a soothing tone.
"I will have people deal with the aftermath, including pensions and compensation. Don't be too embarrassed, if I had made it clear that experimentation was forbidden, I wouldn't have approved the establishment of the Seventh Institute. ”
The Herald Civilization did advise someone not to try to break the Fourth Wall, but the Herald Civilization was not the father of the Alliance. In the end, the fate of human civilization must be borne by human beings themselves, and a group of illusory fathers cannot be counted on.
It's better to expect that thing to be really responsible than to expect your family to be in charge.
This thing is like a nuclear test, the person who played with the atomic energy to warn the people who don't have nuclear weapons not to mess around, and the experience of people who have come before really has to be heard, but to understand "don't mess around" as "don't do research" is pure nonsense.
Chu Guang prefers to believe that as long as a box is placed there, it will definitely be opened.
Either it is opened by human civilization or by other beings in this universe, and the final result makes no difference.
It is impossible for people to escape their fate in the true sense, in most cases they only escape by choosing and handing over the fate that should be in their own hands to others.
Looking at the researchers who had regained their confidence, Chu Guang paused for a moment and continued.
“…… However, the results so far have come as a bit of a surprise to us, and I would like you to write me a report on what has happened, as well as improvements to the facility in response to this attack. Like what...... Equipped with the necessary physical sanitizing means. This time it's a different species, and it can't be ruled out that next time it's a virus, or something else. ”
"In addition, the Guards recently discovered some unusual 'anomalies' during their recent visit to Dawning City, and it is currently impossible to determine whether these anomalies are related to the perforator experiment, and I hope you will assist the Guards in their investigation."
"Understood!" Looking at the manager, Director Dai nodded solemnly, and then ordered the staff wearing chemical protective suits to step forward and retrieve the corpse lying in the corridor.
This monster crawled out of the perforator, and it should be the so-called "existence stuck in the wall".
If a tissue sample can be extracted from it, it may help them uncover what the Void really is.
And then, the unexpected happened.
A researcher took a small sample of blood through a dropper and scanned it under a portable sample analyzer, only to find that the footage was pitch black and there was nothing.
At first, he thought it was a broken instrument, so he borrowed a colleague's instrument, and the result was the same.
No matter how he adjusted the magnification, all he saw was pure black, not to mention platelets or histiocytes soaked in liquid, and he couldn't see even the slightest impurity.
"Blame ......"
He sighed lightly, and in line with the principle of finding out, switched the optical microscope to radio mode, and pulled the magnification directly from 1000 to the maximum value - 100,000!
At this magnification, he could even see the twist-like chromosomes in the nucleus.
However, to his astonishment, it was still pitch black in the camera, and he couldn't see anything.
"Hell ......"
If the visible light is not penetrating enough, it is understandable what obstacles he encountered, but he has already switched the visible light source to transmitted electrons, and the result is still pitch black, which is a bit outrageous.
He even had the illusion that what he was observing didn't exist at all.
Or, it was some kind of matter that was divided by atoms, and could not be observed at all with their current means of observation.
This kind of thing certainly exists in the universe.
For example, "dark matter".
These invisible and intangible objects do not interact with electromagnetic waves in any way, and are almost unaffected by any force other than gravity.
The academic layer in the era of the People's Union proposed to use the "quark gluon slurry" to interfere with gravitons, and then use the gravitons as probes to scan dark matter, but unfortunately this idea is too advanced, and the technology of the People's Federation is not strong enough to use gravitons to do this kind of fine work.
However, on the other hand, although the "quark gluon slurry" has not been used in the field of high-energy physics, the by-products of a series of studies on it have been widely used in many fields.
For example, phase cannons, deflection shields, anti-gravity devices, and hyperspace engines that mark the pinnacle of human space technology, although they use nuclear fusion reactors, they essentially use "quark gluon slurry" as a medium to interfere with gravitons.
Of course, that's all a stretch.
In short, when the researcher discovered that the blood of this monster was suspected to be some kind of "high-density" dark matter, he immediately ran to Yin Fang and Director Dai with a ghostly expression, and reported his discovery.
Yin Fang and Dai Huai'an were stunned for a moment, and their faces also showed expressions of hell.
"Dark matter...... How is this possible. ”
Although it is ubiquitous in the universe and has a much more total mass than visible matter, it is extremely dense and does not produce or emit any electromagnetic waves.
As we all know, the reason why the human eye can see things is because the photoreceptor cells in the eye are able to distinguish between specific wavelengths of electromagnetic waves.
If this thing is really dark matter, they can't see it at all.
And because dark matter is not affected by strong and weak interaction forces, it is impossible for this thing to aggregate to form an observable stable structure.
Like quicksand, it passes directly through the surface of everything visible to the naked eye, and then is carried by gravity to the core of the massive celestial body, and then splits into isolated particles, scattering along the gravitational surface, and finally disappearing into nothingness.
Of course, this is only a hypothetical possibility, and in fact dark matter cannot be clustered together at all.
Just when the two were stunned, an even more incredible scene happened.
The black blood in the tube and the liquid lying in the Petri dish of the analyzer suddenly became transparent.
Without waiting for everyone to react, they disappeared out of thin air as if they had lost all the restraints of their force.
Exclamations came one after another.
"It's ......"
Looking at the sample that disappeared out of thin air, Dai Huai'an was stunned, and Yin Fang, who was standing next to him, suddenly turned his gaze to the body of the monitor lizard that was broken in two.
The same thing seems to be happening over there.
In front of everyone's eyes, the huge body gradually blurred, light, and hollow...... In the end, like a crumbling sand barrier, it turned into dust and disappeared into nothingness.
Standing up against the wall, [Waves] stared wide, and watched as the monster that had killed his three good brothers disappeared into the hallway as if it had never been.
"......"
When will this game automatically clean up corpses?!
