Chapter 187: Entering the Bottom of the Iceberg
The area in the middle wasn't really ice, but just the appearance of the ice they had made of materials to hide the rebirth underneath, which wasn't actually very strong enough for three or four people to step on.
The wolf hunter walked lightly to the middle of the ice, then knelt on it, leaned down and reached out to grope for the ice. Immediately after, he saw his hand stop at a point, and then began to pick at the point with his fingers.
Finally, a circular keyhole appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the wolf hunter took out a key from the inner bag of his clothes, which was the key to open the rebirth.
The wolf hunter carefully inserted the key in, and before turning it, he turned to look at Mu Chen and confirmed again: "Are you sure you want to open it?"
"Sure. Mu Chen told him very firmly.
While the wolf hunter was turning the key, Yao Si broke away and stood at the front with Bai Chen and Mu Chen, if there was danger, at least he could block the team members behind him. Everyone held their breath, not knowing what would happen in the next second.
With a "snap", the hidden camera obscura was opened, and the wolf hunter quickly returned behind Mu Chen, because they had said before, and everything after the camera obscura was opened would be handed over to Mu Chen.
"Be careful. The wolf hunter gave a solemn expression to the four of them, and then all the team members saluted Mu Chen and the four of them together.
"Don't worry. Mu Chen smiled and turned around and walked towards the camera obscura.
The size of the camera obscone can be passed through at a time, and the rebirth is sealed at the bottom of fifty meters below, the very bottom of the entire iceberg.
Mu Chen jumped down first, and when he reached the bottom, he saw a crystal glass ball on the ice, floating up and down for some reason. Mu Chen took a closer look, and the inside of this crystal ball was rebirth.
Rebirth was originally an invisible gas, but before it was frozen, researchers changed it back to its original viral form, a walnut shell, in order to find it accurately.
However, Rebirth has only been locked up here for four years, and a lot has changed. Mu Chen had read the information about rebirth that Li Dongyi sent him, and there was a photo of rebirth when it was frozen, which was also the shape of a walnut shell, but that photo was taken under a professional molecular cell microscope.
In other words, rebirth at that time was nothing more than a virus the size of a speck of dust. But after four years, it actually grew to the naked eye, the same size as a real ordinary walnut, which shows how fast it grows.
The one who also fell to the bottom looked at it for a while and sighed: "Oh my God! If it comes two years late, will it break this glass ball!"
Bumped?
The words of breaking away reminded Mu Chen that the crystal ball kept floating up and down, as if it was struggling, and it wanted to break the crystal ball by colliding!
"Could it be that rebirth is already conscious?"
Mu Chen and Yao Si said this sentence in shock almost at the same time, and both of them had this terrible guess.
Bai Chen shook his head in disbelief and said, "No, how can a virus produce consciousness?
"Maybe it's not consciousness, but it's an instinct that gets stronger. Yao Si said with a solemn expression.
"Alas!" Mu Chen sighed helplessly, "Whether you are conscious or not, what we know now is that it has indeed become more powerful." ”
Mu Chen still wanted to hide if he could, and it was also excellent to avoid rebirth. But now that the rebirth is constantly growing, he has to take care of it. At least it's still in the crystal ball, and if it breaks through it on its own one day, it will be too late.
"We're going to get rid of it. Mu Chen said seriously.
The other three all agreed with Mu Chen's decision, but how could they eliminate Rebirth?
None of the four of Mu Chen had really seen the power of rebirth, and they had never been hit by this type of virus, so they would never dare to open the crystal ball easily.
"Will there be a way for Wuyu? He can cure so many poisons, maybe this can too. Bai Chen proposed.
Mu Chen thought for a moment and overturned Bai Chen's guess, "No." If Wuyu could solve it, Li Dong would have sent him to study rebirth early in the morning. So far, they've only made this suit, and there's nothing really effective enough to kill it. ”
Just when everyone was at a loss, they broke away and said, "Why don't you try my Red Lotus Karma Fire?"
The Red Lotus Karma Fire is a hell fire that destroys the filth and evil of the world. But for the rebirth virus, Mu Chen really can't estimate whether the Red Lotus Karmic Fire has any effect on it. But there was no other way at the moment, so the four of them decided to try it first.
Mu Chen and Yao Si stood in front of the rebirth, as the two with the highest strength among the four, if there was an accident in the Red Lotus Karma Fire, Mu Chen and Yao Si could quickly react and act quickly.
Breaking away summoned the childe fan, and used his greatest strength to release the red lotus karmic fire.
I saw the red lotus karmic fire blooming around the crystal ball, and a red lotus continued to devour the sphere. In less than a moment, the crystal ball turned to ash in front of everyone's eyes, and the walnut-sized rebirth virus inside kept beating in the flames, struggling violently.
Effective!
Mu Chen and Yao Si glanced at each other, and they both thought that the Red Lotus Karma Fire had worked.
However, not long after everyone was relieved and happy, things took a serious turn.
Because, the Red Lotus Karma Fire burned for a full ten minutes, and even the surrounding ice was melted somewhat. But the rebirth has not changed at all, it is still the size of the original walnut, and not even a bit of dregs has been dropped.
Just when everyone's hearts were lifted again, the rebirth, which had been beating violently, suddenly quieted down, and just stayed quietly in the red lotus karmic fire.
At this time, the red lotus karmic fire that was continuously released with spiritual power was about to be unable to support it.
"I'm here to help!"
Bai Chen, who was standing next to Broken Away, began to replenish his spiritual power and maintain the red lotus karmic fire.
Just a few minutes later, the rebirth that had quieted down suddenly jumped violently, and in one fell swoop, it broke out of the encirclement of the red lotus karmic fire and stopped in the air.
Breaking away from the red lotus karmic fire, he was supported by Bai Chen and retreated to the back to rest.
Mu Chen and the other three didn't expect that the reason why Rebirth had quieted down just now was actually to accumulate strength, in order to break through the Red Lotus Karma Fire.
Now, the rebirth was mistakenly released by them, and the crystal ball was also burned by the red lotus karma fire, and the rebirth was unbound if it ran out.
This is Mu Chen's fault, no matter what, they must also be completely destroyed and reborn.
After the rebirth virus got rid of the Red Lotus Karma Fire, it stopped in mid-air, as if it was observing the four of Mu Chen, and it didn't move.
The four of Mu Chen were not idle, and while they were vigilant about rebirth, they all carefully checked their protective clothing to ensure that the reborn virus would not have a chance.
"This little guy may have evolved consciousness. Mu Chen whispered to the other three.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Mu Chen spoke, the rebirth in mid-air opposite jumped a few times, as if he understood, and nodded in agreement with what Mu Chen just said.
Breaking away was surprised and sighed: "No, the virus can still evolve? This is too incredible, isn't it?"
At this moment, Rebirth suddenly spun around a few times and moved a few steps to the left, just in front of the Severe.
"What do you want to do?" renunciation refers to rebirth. Although he was calm on the surface, he was still a little trembling in his heart. Because it was reborn with the fire of the red lotus karma just now, it still remembers!
As soon as Jiesheli's words fell, I saw a visible white gas suddenly erupt from the reborn little body, heading straight for Jiejia's face.
Breaking away from the detachment reacted in time, and once again released the red lotus karmic fire to block the white gas. I saw that this gas began to gradually become transparent after encountering the scorching red lotus karmic fire, and after filtering a layer of water, it disappeared.
But the four of Mu Chen knew that it did not disappear, but because this was the true prototype of the rebirth virus. The white gas that I could see just now was just because they were underground, surrounded by 10,000-year-old ice, and the gas was stained with cold and turned into a colored form.
At this time, Mu Chen's expressions became more solemn, and even Yao Si took out his magic weapon, the jade flute.
Yao Si rarely took out this jade flute magic weapon, and Mu Chen had only seen it once or twice, unless he encountered an immeasurable opponent, or when there was an emergency, the powerful Yao Si would definitely not use this magic weapon easily. Because her strength has few chances, she needs to use magic weapons to defeat the other party.
And today, the four of Mu Chen are all ready for battle, the Dragon Sword, the Jade Flute, the Gongzi Fan, and Bai Chen's zombie form. They are now facing an opponent they have never met before, an invisible cell killer.
Rebirth has no spiritual power, no mana, there is no way to judge its strength, and naturally it cannot be compared with the four of Muchen. All this is unknown.
"Bai Chen, close the dark box above. Mu Chen said solemnly to Bai Chen behind him.
There are also wolf hunters and their teammates on it, and this reborn virus is an invisible gas that is difficult to see with the naked eye. In order to prevent the virus from running outside, for the safety of wolf hunting, Mu Chen decided to close the dark box.
The dark box above is made of ice stone, which may be able to block the reborn virus, and Mu Chen and the others want to destroy the terrible rebirth in this closed space.
Bai Chen reflexively flew under the camera obscura, and before closing the door, he left a word for the wolf hunters who had been looking down curiously, but couldn't see anything clearly, and asked anxiously.
"Put on your protective suit and wait outside the iceberg. Don't worry, when we come out again, you'll be able to go home. ”
After Bai Chen closed the camera obscura and returned to the bottom of the iceberg, he moved his whole body and walked in front of Mu Chen and them.
"I'm also the ancestor of zombies, and I can't be poisoned, so let me see what this little thing is capable of!"
