If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 671 The Cocoon of Eternal Life
Kassel College, Ice Cellar, Skoti District.

In the low-temperature cabin made of pre-effect glass, the temperature in the cabin read by Norma is dropping rapidly. The researchers wearing white lab coats outside the cabin carefully control the non-metallic mechanical arm so that the brass tank is only suspended on the quartz glass in the center of the cabin. inside the hood.

"Dragon King Norton. Captured successfully."

Outside the cryogenic chamber, some of the researchers whispered, as if they had broken a thousand-year spell, and lit fireworks for the first time in the dark, starless night sky. Everyone’s eyes were filled with excitement, and they turned to look to the speaker.

Naturally, it was Angers who spoke. This old guy is so unique even in his lab coat. Recognizable representative items can always be found on his body. For example, at this historic moment, he is holding the A bottle of champagne.

After he opened the package, he unscrewed the wire on the cork. Due to environmental factors, he could not bring in a metal champagne knife, so he picked up a champagne glass and put it on the smooth curved neck of the champagne bottle, and drew along the curve With a crisp "Bo" sound, the cork bounced off and fell into the arms of a certain researcher.

"For hundreds of years, research on dragon genes, alchemy techniques, and language skills has allowed us to learn more about the civilization, habits, and history of dragons. But so far, we have not been able to obtain 'perfect' specimens. Dragons It is too difficult to obtain living bodies and complete skeletons, and the only living bodies captured are immature cubs, so the research value is limited."

Angers poured yellow wine on the champagne tower that had been built long ago, and every champagne glass began to be filled.The researchers excitedly went to take down their own wine glasses and toasted in the lack of warm but meaningful congratulations from the principal, "Today is a historic day, let us witness the miracle in the history of science, we will dissect the dragon king! "

The applause was thunderous, and everyone seemed to be cheering, but the bloated lab coats could not allow them to do such a big movement, so they could only express their enthusiasm and excitement with more and more enthusiastic applause.

The sensation of dissecting the dragon king in the mixed-race world is definitely far greater than that of Humphreys announcing the fragment of dissecting aliens in 1995. At that time, it caused a sensation all over the world. If what they are going to do tonight is exposed, it must be a sensation The degree will go up to a higher level—even the world of dragons that still exists in the shadows will become restless.

"Excuse me, is there a living body in the brass tank?" A researcher raised his hand.

"I can't be sure, but the high probability is that the casting time of the brass pot is about 33 AD, which is a product of nearly 2000 years ago. If the 'egg' in the brass pot is a living body, it means that he has been asleep for 2000 years. Its owner used to be Gongsun Shu, the real emperor in Jianyuan, Sichuan."

"Do we have an example to prove the conjecture that the ancient Chinese emperor was the Dragon King?" the researcher exclaimed. If it is true, then the excavation direction of the dragon tombs of mixed races will undergo a drastic change in the next hundred years. In the future, a large number of dragons All kinds of archaeologists will join the national archaeological organization to conduct in-depth exploration of some emperor's tombs that have not been excavated or have been excavated. Even the tombs of monarchs on the other six continents abroad will be driven to excavate one by one.

What awaits the world will be an archaeological feast!

Angers stared at the copper tank suspended in the superconducting magnetic field and said, "The owner of the copper tank is indeed Gongsun Shu, but we personally think that its real owner is Li Xiong, Gongsun Shu's courtier. This person persuaded Gongsun Shu to become emperor, and He showed Gongsun Shu the miracle of "Dragon Out of the Mansion Front". As for why the brass jar once belonged to Gongsun Shu. At least all the alchemy materials needed to make the brass jar were passed by Gongsun Shu, who was powerful in the inland of Sichuan at that time. It was seized violently, and it was scraped three feet from the ground, and it was handed over to Gongsun Shu to make the brass pot in front of us."

"Would Gongsun Shuhui risk the title of tyrant for a courtier to scrape the ground?" someone questioned.

"As long as this subject convinces him, this brass pot is prepared for him." Anger said lightly, "It was never the miracle of 'dragon coming out of the mansion' that made Gongsun Shu really tempted to proclaim himself emperor, but Li Xiong promised Gongsun Shu another miracle, a miracle that no one in ancient times could refuse. This miracle is called 'eternal life'."

All the researchers were slightly awe-inspiring, and Ang Rou nodded and said, "There is no emperor who does not want to live forever, and 30 years of prosperity in the world are fleeting, let alone an emperor whose hand covers most of the fireworks in the world. Li Xiong's proposal made Gongsun Shu unable to refuse, then It is the ultimate that even one emperor through the ages has not reached in the historical records, so Gongsun Shu was persuaded and proclaimed himself emperor in Shu, with the name of the country and family, and the name of Longxing."

"But the one who survived in the end was 'Li Xiong', not 'Gongsun Shu'. This brass pot was not built for the emperor's immortality from the very beginning." Only pure-blooded dragons have been transformed, and this brass pot has identified its own master from the beginning."

"Is the brass tank safe? We now represent that the world's cutting-edge technology cannot scan through its shell to get what's inside." Someone raised his hand.

"Safe, as long as he is kept in a low-temperature and metal-free and heat-free space, he will always be safe." Ang Rou nodded, "The brass tank itself is not a 'copper' metal, but it is something that human alchemy cannot analyze now. Alchemy materials, the "cocoon" material that seals the Dragon King cannot have the conditions to wake him up, otherwise this is tantamount to wanting to sleep forever on a pile of adrenaline."

"How to break open the brass tank for observation and dissection? Without the use of metal and high-temperature lasers, it is difficult for us to use a knife on this big thing."

"We obtained an alchemical liquid called 'grey tin solution' from an ancient Egyptian tomb. Its original function was roughly used as the key to open the golden coffin of the pharaoh. The coffin is his cocoon, and the 'grey tin solution' is the key he left for the descendants of the dynasty to wake him up. But it is a pity that he was too confident in the dynasty he ruled, which led to the discovery of the key first. The cocoon's people defeated us who remained as the people of the tomb robbers locally, so he naturally went to destruction." Anger said.

"'Gray tin solution' is like strong sulfuric acid to human skin for this kind of alchemy material. It can destroy the alchemy matrix on it, and then the effect of the 'seal' will be broken. Once there are any elements that fit the creatures in the tank around , it will recover in a short time." Angers paused, "But we don't have to worry about this happening. Because we have now found a way to reproduce the alchemy matrix on the brass tank."

The "cocooning" of the Dragon King has always been a secret among secrets, and it is precisely because of the "cocooning" that dragons will not die and become the dogma for dragon slaying by hybrids. Every surviving pure-blooded dragon will die in history. There is a span of hundreds or even thousands of years, but this does not mean that they really walked such a long distance in history. The time span of these movements is actually quite watery.A subspecies spanning the whole history of 1000 years, he really left footprints on the earth, the history that can be studied is only more than a hundred years, and the remaining [-]/[-] of the time he is sleeping, and the way of sleeping It is also 'cocooning'.

"Through the guidance of Professor Emeritus Flamel, our forever master friend in alchemy, who has seen every dragon's 'cocoon' ever found at Cassel Academy, in video, in photographs, Or in the way of on-the-spot investigation, the 'cocoons' he has seen are considered to be the most existence among the hybrids, and it is a great means for him to see these 'cocoons' survive." Angers smiled and praised the inside of the bell tower. Friends, let all the researchers who had inherent prejudices against the lazy vice-principal stand in awe.

But if Angers said the second half of the sentence "Run away immediately after seeing the 'cocoon' and never participate in the dragon-slaying battlefield", probably the original respect of these researchers will collapse again, and the vice-principal knows It is estimated that they will fight hard on the basis of reason. Can the alchemists withdraw from the frontline battlefield be called deserters?That is to say that scientific talents enjoy the power of the retreat front!The same is true throughout the ages!

"Our dear vice-principal pointed out that the 'cocoon' of all dragons is made by superb alchemy. The alchemical materials made from the 'cocoon' itself involve the 'Treasure of Andvari', 'Icarus' Wax', "Ireniel's Iron", "Inverted Crescent Moon" and so on are also extremely rare materials for dragons."

A researcher who is knowledgeable in alchemy immediately pointed out, "Most of the materials are related to 'fire'!"

"No, to be precise, it's related to 'refractory'." Anger said lightly, "The alchemical materials needed to make a 'cocoon' similar to a brass pot are extremely fire-resistant."

"Extremely high temperature inside the brass tank?" The researcher was stunned for a moment. If Angers or the vice-principal's conjecture is correct, doesn't that mean that they believe that the dragon's 'cocoon' is hot all the time? the hell?After all, the exterior materials are all made of high-grade refractory materials. Most alchemy swords will be mixed with these materials to avoid deformation due to the vibration and heat generated by the exchange of gold and iron in fierce battles.

What is this? Are they facing a century-old stewed stewed dragon king dish?The next dissection is to open the can and share the food?
"Have you read 'Jade Records'?" Angers asked in a low voice, looking at the brass pot, "Up is down, down is up, so as to fulfill the opportunity of the one. 'Up and down' will always be 'Jade Jade' Record', as well as the core theory of alchemy, this truth will naturally be perfectly confirmed in the acme of alchemy, the 'cocoon' of dragons."

【Ascension from the earth, and descending from the sky, gaining the power above and below.

The bottom is the same as the top, and the top is the same as the bottom. In this way, the miracle of Taiyi will be fulfilled.

All things are the One, and were created from the One by differentiation.

In this way, you can gain the glory of the world and stay away from darkness and ignorance.

The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived by the wind and nurtured by the earth.

Divide the earth from the fire, extract the essence from the rough, and do it cautiously.

Here lies the source of all perfection in the world; its power is most perfect on earth.

This is the power of ten thousand forces, breaking the tough and pulling the tough.

This is how the world was created, and miracles can be achieved accordingly. 】

"It's cold resistance, compared with the top and bottom. The temperature in the 'cocoon' is extremely cold, not extremely hot!" The researcher shivered as if he had figured out something, and looked at the brass tank in the low temperature cabin. He whispered incredulously, "Bio-freezing technology that existed thousands of years ago?!"

"If you understand the Emerald Jade Record, you will understand half of alchemy." Angers said calmly, "The other half will naturally be made up for by practice. Modern human cryogenic technology has indeed deciphered 'immortality' to some extent." However, we have only gone half way so far, that is, theoretical knowledge, and practice is forced to stop at the damage of freezing to the human brain and the death of various life molecules under anaerobic low temperature."

"But the dragons have taken another step thousands of years before us, that is, practice-they have completed this technology, so that their race can live the same life as this land and sky." Anger said, "They have controlled The secret of 'soul', or the secret of 'consciousness', the brain can be frozen to death, but 'consciousness' can't, so the dragon technology of 'cocoon' can be perfectly implemented, allowing this group to get real eternal life! "

"'Consciousness uploading technology'?" There are researchers who are proficient in artificial intelligence and human brain research. on your computer?"

Angers paused for a moment and looked at the researcher who asked the question, "The invention of the computer was completed in modern times, and the Internet was not popularized on a large scale at least ten years ago. It may still be a bit difficult for those nobles to make the Internet thousands of years ago. The erudition exists."

The researcher froze for a moment before realizing that he had asked a stupid question.

Anger shook his head and said, "Not only the 'soul' and 'freezing' technologies, we even suspect that dragons have also mastered the bio-refining technology, that is, to cultivate an independent carrier without its own consciousness based on its own cells , and then freeze this carrier in the 'cocoon', when one day when his 'consciousness' is transferred into the carrier, it is the so-called 'resurrection'."

"The alchemy matrix reverses the basic nature of matter. The ultimate high temperature resistance is the ultimate low temperature resistance. The space inside the brass tank was determined by Professor Flamel as 'absolute zero', which is the lowest temperature in thermodynamics, -273.15°C At this temperature, the molecular kinetic energy of the object disappears, but the potential energy still exists, and the internal energy takes the minimum value, and the material has no particle vibration at all, and there will be no so-called "disappearance" without loss." Anger said.

"Ulrich, a physicist in Munich, once mentioned that we can read a series of temperature numbers from the temperature curve, but these numbers only represent the probability that the particles it contains are in a certain energy state, so in theory This position is "flipped" once, and the temperature curve is reversed from positive to negative, from up to down, and the limit will be lower than absolute zero."

"Up is down. In line with the core of alchemy in Jade Records, it turns out that some scientific theories can be verified by metaphysics." Someone whispered.

"Modern science can't simulate the conditions of absolute zero, so naturally it's impossible to research the carrier that can maintain the absolute zero space, that is, the material of the brass tank itself. -273.15°C is a natural barrier, and our science can't really simulate it. But the alchemy of the Dragon Clan can do it!" Ang said with his head, "It is a power that transcends physical phenomena, which is equivalent to 'rules'. If there is such a power, it can turn the concept of 'up is down' into reality, and make positive If the number is negative, then the problem of absolute zero is just a matter of 'discovery' for them, as long as they 'discover' the existence of absolute zero, then they can easily implement it and... improve it!"

"It's no wonder that these alchemy materials have to choose extreme heat resistance. We have never created a space with absolute zero temperature. Naturally, we don't know what needs to be used as the carrier of the space. But if we take the positive temperature and use alchemy to flip its own 'nature', Heat resistance becomes cold resistance, then the problem of the carrier of the absolute zero space will be solved.” The researcher who first noticed the problem of the brass tank material suddenly realized, and then there was abnormal excitement, and his face flushed.

Anger saw their reactions, nodded slowly and said, "The deciphering of the 'cocooning' technology has been put on the agenda, and Norton's 'cocooning' is undoubtedly the most perfect pinnacle of alchemy. It belongs to his own coffin, on which we may obtain richer conditions than previous records, so the work of checking and accepting the property of the Dragon King actually started when we obtained the brass pot!"

"This is still to the extent that the brass tank has not yet been opened." The hearts of the researchers almost jumped out of their throats. They had already touched the secret of dragon immortality without actually opening the brass tank. What kind of achievements will be achieved in the future?Just thinking about it a little bit is almost boki (anti-harmony).

"What should we do if the balance of the brass pot is destroyed by using the gray tin solution, and the dragon king starts to wake up?"

"Don't worry." Anger shook his head lightly, "Although we can't reproduce the absolute zero environment, the science and technology we have now is enough to achieve conditions that are infinitely close to absolute zero, although the difference is a thousand miles away. , but according to alchemy, dragon biology, physics and the most important empirical analysis, an environment close to absolute zero will definitely slow down the recovery of the dragon king, and it is enough for us to complete the dissection in the process."

"It's a pity. If it wasn't for the fact that the Dragon King is too terrifying, the living body can be preserved for research, which must be thousands of times better than the dissection effect!" A researcher rubbed his fist and palm with regret on his face.

"It's not a pity." Anger immediately interrupted the compound voices of many researchers, holding a champagne glass and looking at the silent crowd expressionlessly, he said, "The study of living bodies is more meaningful than dead bodies. Everyone knows a little bit of truth. But can anyone really bear the anger and hatred towards you in front of the dissection operating table, the world outside the operating room, and the entire human being at the moment of resuscitation?"

No one speaks.

Angers shook his head, "No one can make such a guarantee. Therefore, anatomy is the next strategy. It is also the only strategy. You are all carefully selected researchers. According to Norma's big data, you can count your lives. Habits, you may not be the top talents related to anatomy technology and dragon anthropology, but you must be the hybrid species with the most determined thinking and the best self-control ability among all talents, so you are standing here today."

Everyone nodded slightly, as if they had been recognized, and strengthened their belief in completing the next work perfectly.

"So." Ange toasted everyone around, "Your lords, and us, too, will be prosperous! (The fate of the winner in the battle is compared to the battle by dissecting the dragon king)"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank the champagne in the glass.

"Is our security in place?" After putting down the champagne glass, some researchers who were still mostly awake took a deep breath and asked nervously. The closer to the ultimate, the more worried that there will be mistakes before seeing the truth. It is inevitable to suffer regrets before being perfect. This is the warning brought to people by countless literary and realistic works.

"The college has activated a level-24 alert in the 'Silent' mode. Good meat will definitely attract wolves. We can only do our best. After all, wolves are fierce creatures that are not afraid of death." Anger shook his head. Said, "But don't worry too much. If the college is invaded during tonight's autopsy, we will know it as soon as possible. After all, don't forget that Kassel College operates [-] hours a day, all year round. There's a living radar watching over everything."

The night watchman, the vice-principal's words and precepts.

Many researchers are slightly relieved. Of course, they can't forget the 'domain' covering the entire academy. Under the maintenance of the alchemy matrix created by Professor Flamel, the huge 'commandment' can be almost year-round Keep vigilant, and any existence that enters the 'domain' will be informed by the night watchman at the first time.

Once the 'discipline' is revoked, the speech spirits of the students of the entire Kassel College will no longer be suppressed, and everyone will surely realize the intrusion, and thus a huge cohesion will erupt, which is the fundamental guarantee for the safety of the college.

"As far as I know, the 'discipline' is still maintained stably." Anger looked up at the ceiling above his head. The Shikoti area of ​​the ice cellar is not far from the clock tower, and it is also shrouded by the spirit of words. He made an agreement with the vice-principal that if any accident happened, the speech spirit in this area would be revoked as soon as possible, so as to remind Angers College of the invasion. (No metal environment, pagers and communication equipment cannot be brought in)

"So. Shall we start now, Principal." The researcher glanced at the metal-free retro Roman watch in his hand. Now the time has reached twelve o'clock, which is the time for the start of this dissection experiment.

"It's a pity that we can't hear the bells from the bell tower, otherwise it would be more ceremonial." Anger said with a little regret, it is not difficult to see that the old guy's anger has been carved into his bones.

After a while, under the suppressed and excited gaze of the researchers, he restrained his emotions slightly, and calmly glanced at the metal-free dial that was about to point to twelve o'clock, and said, "Then I announce that the dragon king anatomy operation , officially begins now!"

The light in the metal-free laboratory suddenly turned red, and then a bright blue light rose in the central quartz cavity. The internal temperature readings began to drop rapidly, a large amount of liquid nitrogen was injected, and a high-pressure environment began to form simultaneously. The distance between molecules quickly shortened.

In the quiet laboratory, a gentle female voice familiar to everyone sounded.

"Liquid nitrogen is injected."

"The robotic arm is adjusting"

"The gray tin solution is pre-installed successfully."

"The surgical environment is about to be pressurized."

"Quasi-absolute zero is forming."

"U.S. time, August 2010, 8, 21:0:00, the anatomy experiment of the King of Bronze and Fire officially started."

The voice of Norma, the artificial secretary of Kassel College who is in charge of all aspects of central control and modulation, officially announced the start of the experiment.
