Chapter 224: Traces of Life (1/4)

Six years ago, the indigenous people relied on spreading the source of the plague in the northern colonies of Southridge, causing a widespread plague called 'flash mosquito disease' in the Moldor colonies, Odor colonies and Midra Autonomous Regions.

Although this plague ended from the very beginning, the bishop of the Huaiguang Church 'White Mist' cut off the source of infection and cured all the infected.

However, in the early stages of the infection, the strange symptoms and extremely high contagiousness did slow down the second-level ascetic, preventing him from rushing back to Port Harrison in the first place to assist the Viscount in his battle with the Totem Lord.

Based on later analysis and traceability, doctors found that flash mosquito disease is a parasitic disease transmitted by mosquito larvae.

The infestation lodged large quantities of infected water into wells and shared water tanks, resulting in infections among the colony.

While using water as a medium is common to many parasites, Ian still can't help but think about it a little.

- After all, the South China Sea relics group is a sacred place for the aborigines.

In this case, isn't it natural that some of the parasites in the Holy Land have been left behind by the natives and cultivated as some kind of plague poison?

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but diverge a little more: "The flash mosquito back then was just the reason why the Flying Flame Land agents who have appeared frequently in recent times cooperated with the natives...... Is it really just a matter of using the natives to contain Port Harrison or Southridge? ”

According to his idea, strengthening the Gu poison of the natives and fighting biological warfare in the South Ridge is the most in line with the strategic goals of the Flying Flame Land.

After all, they are dry and hot there, so they naturally block most viruses and parasites, and they don't have to worry about backing up on the local area.

And the empire is bad, even if it can be cured, it will cause extreme instability in the local area.

Writing these down and putting them in the notepad of the silver chip, Ian felt a little uneasy in his heart: "Although I don't know if this parasite is natural, or whether it has been distorted by nuclear radiation or the psionic field to evolve into its current appearance, this strange creature is enough to show the danger of the ruins." ”

"If this parasite is made into a biological weapon......"

- The Great Native Shaman is indeed dead, and the crocodile is gone.

But the natives accepted the firearms aid from the Flying Flame Lands, and there must be agents behind them...... Whether the other party has been weakened or not is really unknown.

If this parasite were to be discovered in the Flameland and crafted into a weapon, it would definitely not be just a South Ridge that would be dangerous.

There are really a lot of things to worry about, and Ian shook his head slightly: "I hope that the White Mist Bishop of the Huaiguang Church really completely eliminated the glitter mosquito back then." ”

"Otherwise, things will be much more difficult."

Stepping over the carcasses of the lizards, Ian continued on.

Walk across the sturdy stone bridge and in front of you is the unfathomable black entrance to the Sequoia base.

This passage is quite wide, more than ten meters wide on the left and right, and about twenty meters high, obviously not only for human traffic, at least the general armor has no pressure to enter and exit, even if it is a large siege machine, it can be easily entered.

The ground and the walls on both sides are paved with large chunks of solid white rock, topped by a semicircular dome structure, supported by some kind of alloy skeleton that, despite being millennia, is still very strong.

However, because of the cave waterfall in front of it and the blue river next to it, it is also very humid here, and the ground of the passage is a slow surging water, and there is also a strange smell of decay and rust in the air, which should be the smell of some kind of iron erosion bacteria metabolite.

It smells bad, but it's not a miasma, so it doesn't affect breathing.

Walking through the passageway, Ian came to a rather bright hall.

It can be seen that this hall was originally a natural cave, and most of the decorative reliefs on both sides of the wall are slightly carved from the original calcified rock wall of the cave, and there are many pictures of stars in a strange style, as well as some flying ships......

If the natives of Terra were here, they would probably be roughly classified as 'ancient fantasy murals of pre-era civilizations', but Ian knew that these relief murals were nothing more than the scenery of some strangely shaped spaceships flying into the starry sky.

Sighing slightly, Ian was now 100% sure that the Sequoia base should be the central base responsible for controlling the space elevator and orbital accelerator here. And the nuclear fusion energy supply group, which is responsible for supplying energy to these two giant structures, should also be subordinate to the control here.

Of course, it must have other functions, otherwise, it would not be a general 'base', but a 'space engineering control center' or something.

"No wonder Teacher Hilliard has been looking for a way to enter this place...... The Great Storm in the South China Sea is essentially a relic disaster caused by heat dissipation problems, and no one can solve the heat dissipation problem of nuclear fusion power plants from the outside without destructive adjustments here. ”

Ian nodded slightly, looking around.

The interior of the hall is not empty, there is a jumble of bones and light sources.

The bones were human and beast, all of them had rotted into skeletons, their clothes were dusty, and only some stone iron utensils at the bottom of the bones were still intact.

It is worth noting that these bones, and even those of wild beasts, are very unusual, they are either twisted and curled up into a ball, or the bones are scattered all over the ground, as if they have been dismantled alive by some great force.

There are even skeletons that seem to sit calmly on one side, but they hold their heads in their arms, and the posture of their arms looks very hard, as if they want to completely crush their fallen heads, obviously they have experienced very extreme pain before death.

Ian frowned at the bone, and he was keenly aware that there were many bone spurs on the bone that shouldn't be there.

The light source is some luminous algae on both sides of the stone wall, releasing cold light without temperature, and it still has a lot of brightness after thousands of years.

Or is it that from the very beginning of the design, these algae lamps have been designed with a thousand years in mind?

And it seems to be a bit similar to fluorescent algae, but a little primitive......

In addition, there are many iron coffins erected in the hall, with transparent glass partitions on them, and it can be seen that the iron coffins are filled with some kind of pitch-black liquid.

It's just that the liquid is so muddy that even with Ian's eyesight, he can't see what's inside for a while.

In the Foresight, there were no other creatures in the hall, which was why Ian was able to take a closer look.

And he also realized that there was living life in this place.

Part of the hall was bones, part of it was some strange iron coffin, but part of it, in the corner of the hall, was some bonfire that hadn't been extinguished, and next to it were scattered and chewed animal bones, which according to the skulls on one side had not been gnawed clean, and it was supposed to be some kind of giant rat.

Further inward, in the shelter from the wind, you can see several straw bunks made of dried moss, with some black marks next to them.

It seems to be blood.
