Seeing the old man's impatient appearance, Gordon took out the large bag of dragon eaters.

Looking at the pile of densely packed, broken or complete insect corpses, the professor couldn't help but sigh, "With such a large number of dragon eaters appearing at one time, the old man is really the first time to see them." ”

Alva next to him wrinkled his face and looked in pain.

As a scrivener who studied biology, he also had a collection of rare insects.

It cost him a lot of his savings when he bought it, and it belonged to the kind of specimens that had been carefully dried and processed, stored in a brocade box full of soft pads, and he was careful to take out and look at it every day, for fear of breaking it.

You are carrying this sackcloth bag, and at first glance you think it is a big bag of fallen leaves.

"Why don't you leave it to me?" Alva held the pot of internal organs and took the initiative to say: "The broken and the whole should be separated, and they also need to be dried and embalmed." ”

"The concubine is here to help, too." The assistant lady put down the form used to record the data in her hand and walked over with great interest, "After the sorting is completed, can you trade two complete concubines?" ”

Gordon agreed very readily, and the number of dragon eaters they brought back this time was very large, not missing one or two.

Alva and her assistant poured the dragon eaters into a large dustpan and prepared to take them outside to a bright place to complete the initial sorting.

Compared with the careful appearance of the two of them, the professor seemed much more casual, grabbing a handful of finely chopped insect corpses and throwing them into the medicine twist, creaking and grinding.

Gordon pulled a chair over and sat down beside the professor.

While watching the professor's movements curiously, he asked about the research of the dragon virus.

"In the living biological specimens that Hayatta brought back, we found that the dragon virus and spores were more active, and the previous guess should be correct.

The existence of the Wild Dragon Virus in Sky Mountain today is not an ordinary Black Eclipse Dragon, it is very likely that it is the so-called Heavenly Dragon.

Of course, this is only speculation based on existing conditions and findings, and cannot be used as a conclusion. ”

"Sure enough, there is a Heavenly Dragon." Gordon muttered to himself.

He selectively ignored the professor's last sentence, that scholars pursue academic rigor, but he is not a scholar.

In his opinion, as long as this speculation is logically self-consistent and consistent with the information and intelligence currently available, it can probably be regarded as such.

"So, if the virus and spores are more active, will it affect the effect of the inhibitor and anti-dragonstone?" Gordon asked the questions he really cared about.

I only hope that the professor won't give him the worst conclusion that "the anti-dragon stone is useless, and the prison wolf dragon is in vain".

The professor paused, put down the rolling grinding, pushed his glasses and said, "The effect is there, in areas with a high concentration of the dragon virus, such as next to a large monster that is infected, the effect of the inhibitor is obviously declining.

In addition to Anhir, who is not insured, Hayatta and the Pen Hunters have all raised this point. ”

Such an answer made Gordon's face look ugly.

The professor comforted: "But you don't have to worry too much, the so-called decline in drug efficacy is not ineffective, but the dragon virus that should have been completely inactivated in the body of the infected person has signs of 'recovery'."

The specific manifestations are increased aggression, irritability, etc., which are very similar to the early symptoms of Raptoid infection.

The strong-willed can suppress these emotional impulses with reason, and as soon as they leave the area covered by the dragon virus, the virus will sink down again. ”

Speaking of this, the professor paused, glanced at Gordon and said meaningfully: "A certain guy who is particularly adaptable to the dragon virus has even deliberately lifted the restrictions in hunting and re-played the 'overcoming' enhancement.

It also has the name of "extreme".

To be honest, at a time when it is not entirely certain whether there will be some sequelae, the old man definitely does not advocate this practice. ”

Gordon smiled dryly and asked, "Is it Julius?" ”

"It's not."

"Could it be Nadia or Will Senpai?"

"It's not."

"Okay, I'll go back and teach her a lesson."

The professor was silent for a few seconds, and then sighed: "Actually, the old man can also understand the child's choice at that time, the dragon she faced has entered the final stage of infection.

If you don't want to kill it as soon as possible, maybe a few minutes, maybe a few hours, or at most a few days, the black eclipse dragon will break out of its 'cocoon'. ”

"Has the epidemic in Sky Mountain developed to this point?" Gordon's brow furrowed.

"I can't say that, it's just that the dragon is the most infected, and it may even be one of the original infected, and it is lucky that Hayatta can meet and deal with it in time.

Judging from the samples of monster tissue brought back by several other people, in addition to the Thunder Wolf Dragon hunted by Hayata, the Thunderwolf Dragon that Julius dealt with was also quite deeply infected.

Will the heavy beetle they hunted had a shallow infection, probably because the beetle species were not very compatible with the dragon virus?

The male fire dragon that Anhill solved was not even infected, and died somewhat unjustly.

All in all, the large monsters that can 'hatch' the Black Eclipse Dragon in the Sky Mountain area have all been solved, and the rest of the infected bodies are also being cleared in an orderly manner, and the remaining problems are basically concentrated on that 'source'. ”

Gordon nodded, just about to say something, suddenly found that the topic was a little crooked, and hurriedly returned to the original question, "Professor, you just said that the effect of the suppressant has been weakened.

So what about anti-dragon stone? Will anti-dragon stone also be affected? ”

To be honest, if the anti-dragon stone cannot achieve the expected effect, it will be too difficult to solve the source of the dragon disease, and the best result will be the same end.

A smile appeared on the professor's serious face, "Judging from the current situation, no, we conducted experiments with the half-finished anti-dragon stone and the living infection sample that Hayatta brought back.

Judging from the experimental results, the inactivation effect of the anti-dragon stone is basically the same in the dragon virus released by the black eclipse dragon and the highly active virus that is currently enveloping the Sky Mountain. ”

"Actually?" Gordon was surprised, "Nothing at all? ”

"Well, inhibition agents and anti-dragon stones are two different concepts, and the mechanism of action is completely different."

The professor continued to grind over the fragments of the dragon-eater, explaining, "It may not be accurate, but you can understand it this way.

The inhibitor can be understood as a vaccine that works to silence the Tyrosaurus virus and spores as if they were not activated in the body of the Black Eclipse.

The anti-dragon stone can be regarded as a kind of radioactive source, just as the ice cube will gradually melt when it is close to the flame, and the dragon attribute energy emitted by the anti-dragon stone will gradually kill the dragon virus. ”

"Sounds like it's been roasted." The pork chop muttered aside.

Gordon followed the statement of the pork chop and asked, "If you are 'roasted' by dragon attribute energy for such a long time, will it have any adverse effects on your body?" ”

"Basically, not." The professor looked Gordon up and down a few times, "Even if it has an impact, it is far less than the equipment you have on you, it is simply the difference between a match and a fire."

By the way, listen to Hayatta, you have also been splashed with the blood of the infected dragon monster before, but there is no sign of infection at all, and it should be the credit of this set of armor on your body. ”

Gordon couldn't help but recall the scene when the blood of the peach-haired beast king splashed on his body, and the dragon's aura burst into flames.

So it's because of this?
