Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 253 Bioweapon Proving Ground

Ke Lan first found a cutting machine from the equipment warehouse of the "Greece", and cut off the solid ice covering the stele, leaving only two centimeters of ice on each side for protection, and then Use a flame spray gun to melt the last two centimeters of ice piece by piece. This step requires special care. If the temperature of the flame and the burning time are not properly controlled, it may damage the main body of the stele.

The second step took more than an hour, and the ice on the entire stone tablet was completely removed. After using absorbent filter paper to wipe off all the water stains on the instant noodles of the stone tablet, a new problem appeared in front of everyone—— —

Who will be the first to touch this stele?
According to previous experience, after the first person touches the stone tablet, the stone tablet will be shattered into a pile of powder, after that, anyone who touches this pile of powder will no longer react.

In other words, the steles that can inherit the Alpha language are disposable items, and each piece can only be triggered once.

"Why don't you put your hands on it at the same time?" Layton suggested.

"I don't agree..." Ke Lan shook his head, "Let's not talk about whether this will allow everyone to accept the inheritance. In case of any uncontrollable accidents, it will be too late to regret... This is like The computer terminal is performing one-to-one data transmission. If the receiver changes from one to multiple, the transmitted information will also be split, and each terminal will obtain a piece of garbled code that cannot be interpreted. For As far as storage devices are concerned, only one format is needed to completely delete these garbled characters... But our brains are not computers..."

"Even if the information storage technology used by Alpha civilization is quite different from human computer technology," Ke Lan continued, "I think it is a very risky behavior to do so."

"Even if only one person comes into contact with the stele, there are still unknown risks." The hound sighed, "This is a gamble."

"Let me do it." The person who stood up was Ivan. He took out a dagger polished with a stone cone from his pocket and handed it to Ke Lan. "Anyway, I picked up the remaining half of my life." , rather than lingering, it is better to dedicate myself to the cause of science... If I succeed, I can also use this ability on those subjects that have been stagnant for a long time in the academic world and cannot be broken through."

"If I'm crazy," Ivan suddenly changed the topic, "don't hesitate, use this dagger to kill me, and then burn my body with the monster's cells inside..."

"Don't say stupid things." The hound gave him a blank look, "It's so easy to go crazy, Natasha is still waiting for your reply—"

"Old dog, don't be blind..." Ke Lan covered the hound's mouth, then looked at Ivan, "Ivan, are you sure you are ready?"

"En." He nodded, then stretched out his good hand, and gently placed it on top of the stone tablet...

……

Nothing happened.

The stele was not broken, and there was nothing unusual about Ivan.

"It seems...it seems to have no effect..." Layton couldn't help but said.

"It seems that Ke Lan's shit luck is not for everyone." The hound complained, but for some reason, although everyone was a little disappointed, they were all vaguely relieved.

"But it can't be said that there is nothing to gain. At least, according to the content recorded on these stone tablets, we can roughly infer what the original function of the 'Bottomless Tiankeng' is." Ke Lan said, "There are two Possibility, first, this ruin is likely to be a biological weapon test site built by the Alpha people under the glacier; second, this sinkhole is a place purely used to store information...its function is close to the archives of the human world a library or library."

Speaking of this, Ke Lan suddenly paused, took out his own gun, put it on the table, and looked at everyone: "Do you still remember what I said in front of Shimen when we first formed a team? ?”

"I remember... you saw a lot of hallucinations at that time..." The hound stopped abruptly, his face changed suddenly, and even his tone trembled slightly, "Could it be that those things are not hallucinations? You What you see is real?!"

"It should be like this, otherwise I can't explain... In your memory, I haven't fired a gun in the ruins, but when we were sorting out the equipment on the battleship, the magazine in my pistol was empty, and only Fired the last bullet." Ke Lan said.

At this time, Akira Asano, who had been silent all this time, stood up, raised the war blade in front of him, and said, "Although I don't remember fighting anything in the stone room, my sword does. That's a formidable enemy."

"That is to say, our memory has been modified..." the hound pondered, "but why did you miss one? You hadn't touched that stone tablet at that time..."

"It's a mental attack. The reason why our memory changes is because we have received a mental attack... just like those crazy hunters, and Ke Lan happened to be the one who escaped the attack by chance." Ivan analyzed .

"The A-087 ruins and the S-018 ruins are twin ruins... Or, they should have been the same ruins. The core area we found in that exploration is just the control hub of the upper half of the ruins, and the lower ruins The half floor is this bottomless sinkhole." The hound said slowly, "In this way, it makes perfect sense for us to be attacked spiritually...Damn it, I didn't expect to come back to this origin after going half a circle gone."

"So, Ke Lan, those biological tissues sealed in the ice layer you saw are all real? And that huge eyeball that can move freely in the ice layer, and... "Ivan said, involuntarily glanced at the hound.

"There is also that kind of meat that can become exactly like me." The hound continued along with Ivan's words, "To be honest, just thinking about it gives me goosebumps on my back. If I really met This kind of thing, I must shoot its head off!"

"The situation doesn't seem to be good!" Layton suddenly said urgently, "If there are really a lot of monsters frozen in the ice layer of the A-087 ruins, wouldn't these monsters all escape after the glacier collapsed? ?! They...they shouldn't be hiding under this sinkhole, right?"

"Hiss... I think it's scary when you say that..." Zhuoligetu took a breath.

"However, it's also possible that these monsters were buried alive by the collapsing glaciers..." The hound rubbed his chin. He hadn't shaved for several days, and the stubble that was originally short had already grown to nearly one centimeters long.

"The possibility of them surviving is very high. This kind of monster cannot be viewed with ordinary eyes at all... Among other things, you think that a piece of ice that can be hundreds of meters deep and is as hard as steel under weight Will the huge eyeballs that move freely in the center be crushed to death by the collapsing glacier?" Ivan said solemnly.

"Then if we go down, won't we... bump into these ghost things?" Layton subconsciously clenched his fists and said in a deep voice.
