Chapter 13: The Egg of Darkness
"Sure enough, it's greasy."
Almost at the moment when Lu Xuan stepped into the study.
The dark power he had felt before vanished in an instant, as if it had never existed.
It's a pity that Lu Xuan was not tricked by this small trick, and turned on the quantum scanning function of the watch for the first time.
This quantum scan was originally used by Omnitrix to scan, analyze, decipher, and store the DNA of other species.
But just modify the program inside Omnitrix slightly.
This quantum scanning capability is also capable of being the most powerful detection device, automatically scanning and analyzing any anomalies.
And the most unusual thing in this study is undoubtedly the safe behind the bookshelf.
Although the vault is disguised, it doesn't work at all thanks to Omnitrix's most powerful scanning capabilities.
"Is it right here?"
Gently pushing away the bookshelf blocking in front of him, Lu Xuan looked at the safe encrypted by the combination lock and frowned.
Because this combination lock is very familiar with the selection, it is a semi-military product of a company under the Galvin Group.
Joe Iwama was able to get a safe of this level, which showed that he was indeed very aware of the danger of this head.
"But the crux of the matter is that this safe has been forcibly opened."
Muttering thoughtfully, Lu Xuan didn't doubt his judgment at all.
Because Kelvin's safes have strong encryption properties, it doesn't mean that these safes are foolproof.
For this reason, Galvin deliberately created a "flaw" in the safe, once it was forcibly opened, it would leave traces on the combination lock.
The person who forcibly opened the safe obviously didn't know this, so he ignored the traces on the combination lock.
"It's not Joe Iwama, but he was able to enter this study and forcibly open the safe."
Quietly rolled his eyes.
Lu Xuan felt that in addition to the members of this family, there should be no second possibility.
So now the question arises, which member of the family forced this safe open?
Is it Mrs. Iwama who looks a little abnormal from beginning to end?
Or is it the daughter of Iwama who has never been seen?
"Zhi Brain, can you directly decipher the code of this safe?"
After a short period of thought, Lu Xuan raised his watch and asked in a low voice.
As a last resort, Lu Xuan did not intend to forcibly break this safe by violent means.
After all, today's Galvin Company can be regarded as a large group with a name and surname, and Lu Xuan naturally does not mind maintaining the company's reputation and product quality as much as he can.
"No problem, this combination lock is just a semi-electronic mechanical lock with 7,600 trillion possibilities, and it is not difficult to decipher."
It was only after a simple data calculation that the code deciphered by the brain was passed to Lu Xuan through the watch.
Click! Click! Click!
Without hesitation, he opened the safe, and Lu Xuan saw the model head in it at a glance.
As Lady Iwama had previously described, the head appeared to be a normal mannequin head.
In addition to being a little more realistic.
In terms of material alone, there is nothing special about it.
However, Lu Xuan was not confused by this seemingly ordinary appearance.
Not to mention the dark aura that I had felt when I was at the door earlier.
The mere fact that this safe has been forcibly opened is enough to prove that the current model head is not as simple as it seems.
"So, was this model head put back again?"
Obviously, the safe has traces of being forcibly opened, but the human head model stored inside still exists.
Lu Xuan didn't think that this was a "thief", and he was merciful and didn't take away this head model.
That being the case, then there are only two explanations left.
The first explanation is that the "thief" could not take the human head model with him at all.
The second explanation is that the "thief" has achieved his purpose and quietly returned the human head model.
The latter is obviously a little more likely than the former.
[I hate the feeling of guessing all the time!] 】
Lu Xuan was just a thought, and the human head model in the safe automatically flew out.
Lu Xuan didn't want to directly touch this head model that he knew was very obscure at a glance, he now needed more clues to dissect the "truth" behind the scenes.
It's just that what Lu Xuan never expected was that it was almost at the moment when the human head model took off.
A huge dark force emerged again, and the originally lifelike human head model was cracked on the spot.
Click......
There is no exaggeration in the descriptive vocabulary, and the head model is simply literal - cracked.
It's like the petals of a blooming flower, or like a cracked eggshell......
The cracked human head model reveals its empty interior, just like the real model.
However, Lu Xuan, who inherited the "power of light", saw it more clearly, and the empty interior of the human head model was not like this from the beginning.
The reason why it is so empty is now.
Purely because the "dark power" within it has broken out of its shell.
The previous surge of energy is most likely the remnant of the "dark power" breaking out of its shell.
"BOSS, scanned for genetic material suspected of DNA......"
The voice of Zhi Brain came out of Lu Xuan's watch almost at the same time, and at the same time, the scanned restored DNA genetic material was presented.
It's not a complete piece of DNA genetic material, and there aren't many clues that can be analyzed from it.
"According to the comparison of the system database, the genetic material of this suspected DNA is 32.7% similar to the genes of Gorzan, Melba, and Gedi......"
"By tracing its genetic link, there is a 97.62% chance that it is an ultra-ancient organism."
After listening to the analysis of Zhi Brain, Lu Xuan had basically figured out the role of this head model.
"No wonder this human head model has survived......"
"It turns out that he has long since become the 'egg' of an ultra-ancient creature."
Lu Xuan was originally a little strange, why the fish and shrimp in the deep sea devoured Katsumi's body, but left a completely inorganic human head alone.
If the human head has become the egg of some unknown creature, then it all makes sense.
This unknown ultra-ancient creature parasitizes Katsumi and then hopes to hatch with the help of his flesh and spirit.
"So ......"
"The soothsayer hid this skull in the deep sea to prevent this unknown ultra-ancient creature from hatching?"
As soon as one of Lu Xuan's doubts was solved, another doubt came to his mind.
"So, who hatched this 'egg' now?"
"What is his purpose?"
