Tang Long put the net toad on the ground, and took out one that was still alive at random, and after a closer look, these toads have undergone some changes, just the size of the toad is a lot bigger, obviously the most ordinary species, but now it is bigger than the average bullfrog, and the spots on the back of the hemp are also more prominent, turning into a black hole the size of a corn kernel, which looks very disgusting.

"These toads have mutated, and these holes in their backs can also spew flames."

Tang Long explained, fortunately, their power had been sealed, otherwise these guys would have burned down the laboratory a long time ago. He continued, "And the king of this group of toads is even more exaggerated, it is now the size of a basin, and two small dark red horns have grown on its head. ”

Tang Long found it in the deepest part of the ground, this guy has evolved, and sharp claws have grown on his flippers, digging through the walls of the sewers, as if he is building a nest for himself. He was also taken aback at the time, he had never seen such a huge toad, it was almost like a monster created after nuclear radiation, and its cry had changed, as dull as a cow's moo.

Tang Long's face was fearless, and he rushed forward with a steel knife in his hand, these are just very low-level beasts, even if there is a mutation, it can be solved with a steel knife. But the toad was very vigilant, after discovering the hostility, it jumped three feet away, very amazing, it lay in the sewer in the distance, aimed at Tang Long opened its mouth and spit out a thick fire dragon, covering the entire sewer, and the huge heat wave instantly evaporated the sewage on the ground.

Tang Long secretly screamed that it was not good, and a layer of blue divine power rose up all over his body, which was to protect his body with mana, he turned around and ran, hiding in the bend of the sewer, the flames were surging, like a wave that washed all the pipe areas, even if he hid in the bend, he was still pounced on his body by a small stream of flames, which directly burned through his body protection barrier, but fortunately, the fire was also extinguished.

When he went back to check, the giant toad had already dug through the wall and fled, but the scene in place made him frightened, not only was the water on the ground evaporated, but the surrounding walls were burned and turned into a lava-like liquid, flowing with fiery red light, in this narrow sewer, the beast had an innate advantage, and there was no way to get close to it.

"You're doing a great job."

Luo Feifei bowed slightly, in that case, if she was not careful, she would lose her life, she put on silk gloves and grabbed a toad, it struggled desperately, its four small claws scratched the air desperately, and opened its big mouth from time to time, it seemed that she wanted to breathe fire to attack, but Tang Long used mana to seal the power, and the attack could not work.

"It's a very interesting beast."

Luo Feifei stretched out a finger and pointed at the toad's back, and the blue light flashed, breaking the seal on its body, and Tang Long's mana was invalid. The toad opened its mouth and roared, spewing out an arm-thick tongue of fire, and the violent wave of fire blew Luo Feifei's hair flying, but she stretched out her slender fingers and gently resisted the flame, and she opened her hand to push, forcing the flame back into the toad's mouth.

"Quack!"

With a scream, it was burned through its internal organs by the flames it spewed, and puffs of black smoke came out of the black hole on its back.

"City Lord, what does this mean?"

Tang Long was a little confused, didn't he say that these living toads were of great research value? There are three alive in total, and one of them will be killed if they come up. Luo Feifei pinched the dead toad and explained: "Their research value is the moment of death, stretch out your mana, and feel it carefully." ”

"Yes."

Tang Long nodded slightly, and also pointed a finger, shooting out a blue light, covering the body of the toad, he closed his eyes and felt it, and then opened his eyes and said: "I see, after these toads die, the energy on their bodies will gradually dissipate and gather in a certain direction, just like those corpses. ”

"Lock up the remaining two alive, this will be the bait, that mutated toad will definitely find a way to find them in order to fully inherit the power of the Fire Dao Spirit." Lo Fei Fei took off her gloves and threw them in the trash.

Tang Long nodded, and he handed the toads to the researchers. Looking back, he saw that Xiao Bai Yu was hiding far away, and he beckoned, "Are you afraid of this thing?" ”

"Don't be afraid." Bai Yu shook his head vigorously, and then said: "But they have become so disgusting, I look at the black hole on their backs, and they are all guilty of dense phobia. ”

"City Lord, we have made a new breakthrough in our research." A researcher stepped forward and led her to the console, which was filled with large and small corpse parts, sealed in glass cabinets and infused with cold air from time to time to ensure that they did not decompose.

He pointed to the corpse on the stage and said, "The energy body of the Dao Spirit is the same as the divine power of the cultivator, it is the embodiment of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and it belongs to the same sect and the same origin. In the past, we thought that divine power was colorless and formless, without substance and weight, and was a free energy between heaven and earth. However, this time, with the help of the most sophisticated weighing instruments, we found that the divine power seemed to have some weight. ”

He pulled out a log sheet with some data on it that recorded the change in the weight of one of the corpse pieces.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the weight was 326.75 grams.

At eleven o'clock in the morning, it weighed 326.74 grams.

By 4 p.m., the weight had dropped to 326.69 grams

After that, the weight does not change. These scientists believe that it was the energy of the Dao Spirit that gradually caused the weight of the corpse to decrease during the dissipation process. Therefore, when its energy is dissipated, the weight of the corpse does not change. The researcher opened the glass cover, took out the corpse piece, handed it to Luo Feifei, and asked expectantly, "City Lord, please sense whether the fire Dao spirit energy inside it has completely dissipated. ”

"No need, there is no divine power in this anymore, and now it is just an ordinary corpse."

"That's right, our research direction is correct, Dao Spirit is a kind of energy with substance!"

The researcher shouted at all his colleagues, and the lab erupted in cheers. Because, if something has weight, then it must have substance. This breaks the previous perception that divine power is not an ethereal thing, but a real substance.

They also found that the speed of divine power dissipation was also related to the size of these corpse pieces, and the larger the corpse pieces, the slower their divine power dissipated, so many of the larger corpses still contained powerful fire divine power.

"Unfortunately, we can't stop this energy from dissipating." The researcher had some regrets. However, as soon as the conversation changed, he said excitedly: "However, we started by studying the substances that make up these flesh and blood, and we have studied and understood in what form the energy of the Dao Spirit exists in the human body. ”

He took Luo Feifei to the front of a huge instrument, it resembles a furnace, which is inevitably reminiscent of the gossip furnace used by the Heavenly Emperor to refine Sun Wukong, but this one is larger, three meters high, the whole body is white, and there is a glass cover on the abdomen, in which is placed a small piece of dark red minced meat, the researcher explained: "This is Huang Guicai's heart, and it is also the most energetic part of his body, through this material analyzer that we independently developed, we can accurately analyze the material composition in it." ”

He walked to the computer next to the analyzer, and after some operation on it, the huge furnace started to run, making a rumbling sound, and many needles and optical probes protruded from the furnace, they waved, scanning Huang Guicai's heart over and over again, and after a while, the computer showed the results.

"City Lord, please see, in addition to containing proteins, water, fat, and other substances of normal human tissues, this heart also has a substance that emits a faint red light, which covers the entire tissue."

Lo Fei Fei looked at the analysis report, which showed a gray-brown image, which was the optical imaging of the piece of flesh, and above its surface, there were faint red points of light. Researchers believe that these are the carriers of Dao spiritual energy, which are contained in every cell, providing powerful abilities for the host, and protecting the host from harming itself when using divine power, for example, when these toads breathe fire, the corners of their mouths will not be unable to withstand the heat, and they can also maintain a considerable degree of moisture.

"City Lord, please see." The researcher brought up the report from an hour ago, and a comparison of the two images showed that there were more red light spots an hour ago, and as the fire energy dissipated, it was also disappearing little by little. This also further proves that these red points of light are indeed the carriers of Dao Spirit energy. The energy that the human body can accomplish all its actions and survive is called bioenergy, and this energy is the second type of energy that can be directly used by the human body in addition to bioenergy, which is also the source of various Taoist abilities that monks can use.

"We named this point of light nuclear energy, because this kind of energy is very terrifying, if a small point of light bursts, it can burn stones into magma." The researcher was very excited, and said, "If every cell of the human body is filled with this energy, then human beings will be omnipotent and surpass the gods." ”

This reminded Luo Feifei of a sentence in an ancient book: "The ancient supernatural powers, the flesh and blood of the body contain the energy of heaven and earth, a falling hair, can cut the mountains, can swing the sea." ”

"Now that we have figured out the way in which this substance exists, can we extract it?"

"This ......," the researcher scratched his head, "no, we can't capture this substance at all, it's like a ghost, it can penetrate everything, and even if we put this flesh in the tightest lead safe, the energy will still dissipate." ”

If this substance can really be refined, it will subvert the history of cultivation, and there will be no need to cultivate hard in the future, just extract this substance directly from heaven and earth and inject it into the human body.

"It's hard for you." Luo Feifei patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "For thousands of years, no one has ever studied to this point, and it has done a good job." ”

"Tang Long, come here." Lo Fei Fei stretched out his hand to greet him, he was hiding in the corner and secretly smoking, he was so addicted to smoking that he couldn't help it even in the laboratory. As soon as he heard him, he was reluctant to extinguish the cigarette in his hand, straightened the cowboy hat on his head, and walked over.

"The lord of the city, please command."

Lo Feifei smiled evilly, stretched out her hand to bring him closer, and whispered in his ear.

"Huh?" Tang Long showed an incredulous expression, and hurriedly asked, "Do you really want to be so tidy?" It's not appropriate, isn't it? ”

"It's okay, you'll make a move when you play big."

"Well, well." Tang Long thought for a while, and then asked: "What about that mutated big guy, I'm worried that it will rush to the street and cause casualties, I think it's better to hunt and kill it as soon as possible." ”

"No, it won't. It's building a nest, which means that in the process of mutation, it is also painful, and it needs a certain amount of time to adapt to that huge power, otherwise there is no reason why it will dig a hole and flee when it meets you. Luo Feifei said firmly: "This matter will drag on for a few days, and when the time comes, use these flesh and those two living toads as bait to attract them to the suburbs and then do it." ”

"Command." Tang Long nodded, walked over to the researcher, took a live toad, put it in his pocket, and turned to leave.

"Little White Feather, you come over too."

"It's coming! Sister Fei, you command. ”

"Work overtime, sort out all these data, and before tonight, upload it to the Tianji Hunting City Information Disclosure Platform."

"No, Sister Fei, you also let me work overtime." Bai Yu cried with a sad face.

"What's the complaint, I'll accompany you to add it." Luo Feifei didn't plan to leave the laboratory, so he found two idle computers and started working on the spot. Originally, this kind of incident happened in Jiangbei City, and it should have been uploaded on the same day, but she thinks that it is more secure to sort out all the detailed information before sending it out, anyway, it will not take more than three days.

Bai Yu was running around in the laboratory, she and the experimenters asked for various test reports, and finally sorted out more than ten pages, she pouted, it seemed that she couldn't get out before twelve o'clock tonight. She obediently stood next to Luo Feifei with the information, watching her start to write a report, worthy of being the city lord, and the beginning was so atmospheric.

"To all the sect masters and compatriots of Tianji Hunting City, recently, there has been a ...... in Jiangbei City"

"Hey, Sister Fei, I remember Brother Hua told me, aren't you planning to hold an elders' meeting?"

"I thought about it later, the Council of Elders still can't be started easily, I'm just a newly appointed city lord, if I don't do something that can convince the public, even if I convene the Council of Elders, I can't solve the problem very well, but it will only cause a power struggle within the Heavenly Machine Hunting City, which will intensify the conflict." Luo Feifei said in her heart, after a few days of getting along, she still likes this little girl very much, no wonder she wants to let her act as the sect master.

With Jiang Ren's dismissal, she also understood that those in high positions must not only do their jobs well, but also understand politics and make good use of authority, otherwise it will only cause internal chaos.

worked overtime until midnight, and finally got the report out, and as soon as she uploaded it to the information disclosure platform, it exploded.

"What?! More than 800 Dao spirits came into the world. I said, Lord Castle, why did you report it now? ”

"That's right, city lord, more than eight hundred Dao spirits are enough to destroy the city, are you so tidy, aren't you really afraid of accidents?"
