After instructing Jabas, Xia Duo sent a message to Jeff, the director of the territory's development department, asking him to meet Jabas's employment needs as much as possible on the premise of maintaining the current development progress.

Fortunately, there are only a few days left in this month, and if nothing else, the fleet jointly organized by Hans and Shining Gold will be back soon, and there will be at least 500 new lords by then, which is enough for Abbas to use.

……

Hurrying back to the Tower of Time, Shador plunged headlong into the spell laboratory.

At this point, no matter what moths there are in this statue, he doesn't have to worry about it, but Xia Duo has a faint premonition in his heart, maybe the miracle of this statue will cease to exist after the explosion of that mysterious existence.

The statue was removed from the carry-on space and stood firmly in the center of the spell laboratory, almost close to the roof, and in the limited space, the tall and hideous statue looked particularly oppressive.

After Jabas and others dug up the statue and moved it to the barracks, they did not carry out a thorough cleaning work, but simply swept away the floating soil from the surface.

Now what Xia Duo has to do is to give this statue a thorough cleaning first, maybe the details are hidden under the mud!

The process of cleaning up is lackluster, and it is nothing more than Xia Duo using the [Water Control] awakened by his own bloodline to refine the cleaning of the entire statue.

As Xia Duo expected, the real surprise was hidden after the cleaning!

There were layers of mud stains before, although it can be seen that the whole body of this statue is stone, but the specific stone is still said!

After cleaning, even if Xia Duo is not a geology expert, it is obvious that the scaly creature with the snake tail on the statue and the stone pillar at the base of the statue are not of the same material.

The color of the scaly creatures is similar to ink, with a faint bluish tinge, while the stone pillars are pure black, with white light clearly refracted in some smooth places.

Shador carefully examined the junction between the scaly creature and its coiled stone pillars, and it may have been an exaggeration to describe it as distinctive, but it was.

At least, from the perspective of an ordinary person, from the surface, a dividing line following the path of the scaly creature can be clearly seen at the junction of the two.

"It seems, it seems that this scaly creature and the base stone pillar were not made in the same batch!"

This is the most simple conclusion that Xia Duo has come to based on the phenomena he has observed so far, and perhaps there is really just the right stone to create this statue with a different material of body and base.

"By the way, there's a broken tail!"

Xia Duo thought of the truncated tail, this statue looks quite valuable, although it has been "soaked" in the carry-on space, but it can not be destroyed or not.

After all, this kind of statue is just this one for the time being.

……

After the broken tail is cleaned, it is also the same as the scale creature itself, which is the color of the ink slightly bluish, and even the broken section is also the same color.

It's just—

How can that fracture surface have an indescribable feeling, could it be-

Xia Duo couldn't help but be startled by his own thoughts, and took a few steps back to carefully look at the statue, the human body was a snake tail, and the whole body was covered with scales, not to mention the snake tail, even on the arms that seemed to be similar to humans.

Others, such as the chest and back, and the head, also have fine scales.

The more he looked at it, the more frightened Xia Duo became, although he had not seen the true body of this kind of scaly creature, but this statue really gave him a feeling of being a living thing, and he almost threw the weapon in his hand with his teeth and claws.

Of course, all these feelings may have been psychological hints, all stemming from some unusual features he found on the broken tail fracture surface, but since he already had this idea, he had to verify it anyway.

……

With the truncated tail, Xia Duo came to the general laboratory on the side, although the alchemy circle had not yet been installed, it was enough to have a test bench.

Fixing the severed tail, Xia Duo opened his right hand, and a pure gold knife with a faint blue luster silently appeared in his hand.

"Dingding-ding-"

The Adamantite Knife and the Broken Tail gently slammed into each other with a crisp sound, and Xia Duo exerted a little force, and soon a small piece of fragments broke out of the Broken Tail section.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo observed the new fracture surface, and continued to knock and chisel on the section of the broken tail, just looking at his movements, like a lame stonemason, but he didn't care, he only had that section in his eyes, and the section on-

Muscle texture!

After a few moments, the laboratory table was in shambles, and there were inky blue stone chips everywhere, large and small, and Xia Duo continued to knock and chisel.

He didn't stop until a cylinder was chiseled out of the section of the broken tail.

Throwing the adamantite knife towards the experimental table, Xia Duo couldn't help but complain: "If there is such a stone that completely fits the bones, muscles, skin, and scales, then there will be ghosts!" ”

He had only seen the muscle texture in the cross-section of the broken tail before, and then he kept chiseling, and the debris that flew out was all crumbling along the muscle texture.

If this is all a coincidence, then it is also a coincidence that he, a little white with no carving experience at all, actually chiseled a thin-walled cylinder with stone!

Xia Duo directly reached out and broke the wall of the cylinder that had been chiseled from the broken tail, and a scale slightly larger than his fingernail was torn off.

Throwing away the scales casually, Xia Duo showed a wry smile, "It's true!" ”

He didn't want to go any further, if nothing else, he could just chisel open the scaly creature statue and see the internal organs of that creature inside.

Xia Duo didn't believe anyone would be so boring, using the same material to reproduce a creature with incomparable detail, even deep into the body.

In this magical world, it is more likely that this statue was transformed from a living being.

Some time ago, didn't Jabas father and son be petrified!

Jabbas, in particular, was completely petrified, and if Chado gave up on him and buried him directly, would the people who dug up Jabas be surprised by such a statue in a few years?

As for why Jabas was petrified and the material of this statue was different, it may be due to the different magic used during the transformation.

……

"An ancient time traveler, a prisoner being punished, or an ordinary 'human' who has suffered an accident, or is it just some kind of statue ornament made from a 'real person'?"

Xia Duo had already decided that the statue was transformed from a real creature, and when he looked around the statue again, he felt completely different, and he felt like he had traveled through time and space to talk to this creature.

Looking at the magic aura again, it is the same as what was observed in the military camp before, there is no obvious aura reaction, and it is no different from ordinary stones.

However, this statue was "snorted" by the portable space before, and it must have undergone some kind of change in the middle, but Xia Duo still can't figure it out for the time being.

The only thing that is certain is that the statue looks "spoiled" and he needs more of them!

After that, whether it is directly fed to the carry-on space, or continue to research, it is a very good sample!
