Chapter 447: Mystery
Rounding a small hill, the group finally reached the place the man had said, and the sight made everyone change color.
The scene wasn't scary, just a small ravine full of planks.
However, these planks are the lids of the coffin.
As far as the eye can see, the entire valley has been buried with coffin lids, and the surrounding mountains are also littered with messy coffin lids.
This is not something that can be done by digging an ancestral grave, it is estimated that the entire city grave has been dug up to have such a scene.
In addition to being shocked by this scene, a strange and inexplicable feeling rose in everyone's hearts.
Why did the corpse master dig so many graves?
Where are the coffins under these lids?
Where did the contents of the coffin go?
"These xenos are getting weirder and weirder, what are they doing with so many graves?"
Qi Xinya had an extremely disgusted expression on her face, and she spoke suspiciously.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Xia Lu one after another.
Xia Lu frowned and walked down the mountain.
When he saw these coffins just now, he had a lot of guesses.
The first guess was that the corpse owner was digging for something.
But if you're looking for something, why is there only the lid of the coffin?
The second guess is that the corpse owner wants to do something with the corpse.
However, this idea was quickly rejected by him.
Cremation is popular throughout the Eastern world, and only a few Western worlds still maintain burials.
What do the ashes of the corpse do after cremation?
And, if a corpse is needed, why did even the coffin be taken?
Neither guess was correct, and he could only go down and continue looking for clues.
The others didn't move, Hua Weiwei followed Xia Lu down, and Qi Xinya went back to find Li Bin.
When I got to the bottom of the valley, the piles of coffin lids in front of me were shocking.
Although I know that these are just wood, seeing so many coffin lids stacked together always gives people an inexplicable feeling of chills down my spine.
Lifting the lid of a coffin, Xia Lu immediately noticed something unusual.
There's something on the inside of this lid.
He couldn't tell what it was, it looked like a film left behind by someone who had applied a thick layer of glue to the lid and dried it.
The membranes have cracked and the edges are turned outward.
Xia Lu tried to touch it with his hand, but was pulled by Hua Weiwei.
"Let's wait for the people from the Science Society to come, we don't know what this thing is."
Xia Lu frowned and withdrew his hand, carefully observing the film, faintly feeling familiar.
The two of them waited for a while, and Qi Xinya brought Li Bin and two people from the Science Society over.
After watching them study for a while, Hua Weiwei said to Li Bin: "What is this, has it been analyzed?" ”
Li Bin stared at the data and scratched his head, then frowned tightly and did not answer her.
Everyone's hearts lifted at once.
Can't even the scientific society analyze what it is?
Everyone was worried at first, but Li Bin suddenly spoke again.
"It's a fungal-like cell, but it's all inactive."
"Fungus?"
Hua Wei frowned slightly and said, "What are you used for?" ”
Li Bin continued to stare at the data for a long time, and then shook his head at everyone: "I don't know, we don't have relevant data on this fungus in our database, but judging from the test results, the structure of this fungus is relatively stable, not like a mutant creature." ”
When everyone heard this, they were even more puzzled and relieved.
If it is not a mutant creature, it means that there is no mutant infectivity.
However, at this time, Xia Lu spoke: "Since it is a fungus, you should be able to restore their activity, help me restore the activity of some fungi." ”
Everyone looked at Xia Lu suspiciously, not understanding what he was going to do.
Li Bin also frowned.
"Of course, fungi also have the properties of plant cells and can be resurrected, but what are you reviving them for? These fungi are not mutated organisms and have no research value. ”
Xia Lu didn't answer, and asked him to do what he said.
Soon, Li Bin put a piece of fungus the size of a fingernail into a petri dish and injected the potion.
The fungus absorbs the agent, quickly softens and begins to become transparent, and the film is integrated into the agent.
Images of fungal activity soon appeared on Li Bin's tablet, showing that the fungi had regained their activity.
Everyone looked at Xia Lu, staring at him for a moment, curious about what he wanted to do.
saw Xia Lu quickly take out a yellow crystal, pinched it with one hand, and one end of the crystal was close to the fungus.
The moment it touches the yellow crystal, the image on the tablet changes instantly.
Fungal cells divide rapidly, which is not at all the rate of normal cell division.
And everyone can also see that translucent tentacles appeared in the petri dish, like countless stamens, trying to get close to the yellow crystals.
Everyone changed color and looked at Xia Lu with a look of amazement.
This is clearly a xenogeneous cell!
Li Bin's eyes widened when he saw this.
"It's amazing, it will change form when you come into contact with the energy crystal."
He widened his eyes and approached the petri dish, as if he wanted to take a closer look at the tissues, but he pulled them away.
"How's the analysis now?"
Xia Lu hurriedly asked.
"The cell activity is very strong, but the intracellular high-energy protein content is very low, it has a strong energy phagocytosis, and the cell has a strong energy conduction...... It can be determined that it is a xenogeneous cell, but it is very different from a zombie cell. ”
Li Bin continued.
Everyone frowned when they heard this.
Li Bin's words made them even more confused.
If it's not a zombie cell, it means that it's not left behind by hatching zombies.
That's what was left behind by the hatching?
Moreover, what exactly did the corpse owner hatch that needs to be carried out in a human coffin?
Everyone's hearts soon lifted, and the situation became more and more strange, but they were all confused.
Hua Weiwei and Qi Xinya looked at Xia Lu again.
"What is this?"
Hua Wei asked slightly.
If anyone has an answer, this person can only be Xia Lu.
However, this time Xia Lu also shook his head.
His ability to awaken xenomorph cells is entirely based on his own experience, and some xenocells do not exhibit mutant cell properties when they are not in contact with the energy source.
However, his experience could only take them here.
After staring at these coffin lids for a long time, Xia Lu suddenly remembered what to do and ran towards the valley with his legs.
The others didn't know why, but they all spread their legs and ran after him.
Even Li Bin threw away important equipment and trotted all the way to chase Xia Lu.
Everyone quickly returned to this side of the valley, and Xia Lu jumped down.
Everyone also hurriedly followed, and soon saw Xia Lu running to a step.
He stared at the steps for a moment, then backhanded.
The stone staircase was split open, and a translucent liquid flowed out of it.
And through the gap, everyone was shocked to find that it was actually a lost coffin inside.
These coffins were covered with stones and hidden here, and inside the coffins were the mutated True Monarch cells they had just seen.
