Dragons: Reboot the New World

Chapter 43 No.40 Two Acts (Part [-])

Half an hour ago.

Sikkodi District, 50 meters underground.The brass tank, which is as tall as a person, is firmly fixed in the center of the magnetic levitation field by four mechanical arms.

"Very good, let go of the robotic arm." Someone clapped their hands.The robotic arm carefully moved away, and the brass tank was steadily suspended in a magnetic field under a cryogenic liquid nitrogen atmosphere, surrounded by a half-meter-thick quartz glass wall.

It is like a developing fetus sleeping in the mother's body. The mother's body is this special oval quartz glass cover. It does not use any metal at all. It was used by all the technical staff of a glass company in California for a year and a half. time to fire to ensure it meets the customer's demanding requirements.

"Perfect!" The entire team of researchers in white lab coats stood up and applauded.

"I am happy to announce that the capture of the Dragon King Norton was successful." Angers raised the filled champagne glass in his hand, "We have successfully captured the first Dragon King, the King of Bronze and Fire Norton. We paid a heavy price, but this time it was a very remarkable success. Ladies and gentlemen, here’s to those who have sacrificed their lives for our dragon-slaying cause in history.”

All researchers raised their glasses solemnly.The phone on the console rang, and the principal put down his wine glass and picked up the phone, "Schneider? It's me, I just came back... Yes, I have asked the night watchman to lift the "Word Spirit Commandment"... Do I need to worry so much? "

"After the "commandments" are lifted, you have Caesar and Chu Zihang. I am very confident in their power...Okay, that's it, buy us time. As the head of an academy, I have important research work to do now. Doing... of course..." The principal showed a smile, "Dissecting the Dragon King. "

He hung up the phone.

"How do we open the copper can?" A member of the Equipment Department in the audience raised his hand and asked.

"In terms of actual texture, the jar is not made of copper, or even metal, although it looks similar. It is made of some kind of alchemical material, and its composition is unknown. The elemental theory of the Dragon Clan is the four basic elements of earth, water, wind and fire. Plus a fifth, the great force that runs through all, Spirit.”

"Dragon King Norton is the king of fire and the king of metal. Flame and metal are both important powers to awaken him. So the thing that seals him must not be made of metal. This is also the case when we design such a quartz glass cavity to house him. The purpose is that he is now under low temperature, in an environment with absolutely no metal, and a uniform strong magnetic field keeps him suspended."

Angers replied, confidently, "This is absolute safety in the scientific sense."

Another round of applause.

"The mistakes made 100 years ago must never be repeated again." Angers suddenly whispered.

The researchers did not understand what he meant and continued to applaud.All scientists in the Interdisciplinary Research Department of Kassel College felt a great honor. They were invited as the elite among the elite to participate in this epoch-making anatomy and witness a great moment in the history of science. Everyone was excited.

"Excuse me, principal, what's the reason for the gap on the copper can?" Someone discovered that the upper part of the copper can was cracked, and the black cracks extended toward the inside of the copper can.

Angers hesitated for a moment, "Why don't we start an MRI scan on it first."

The MRI scan was started immediately, and the three-dimensional reconstruction results were displayed on the huge screen. In an instant, everyone's expressions changed.A huge chill fell on everyone's heart, and they realized that they had been optimistic too early.

"Two voices..." someone whispered.

"A cavity..." someone else said.

The structure inside the copper tank was clearly revealed. The inside of the copper tank was divided into two halves. In one half, there was a human skeleton curled up, and in the other half... it was empty.

The disturbing crack is located just above the cavity.

"Something... escaped from inside!" Someone's voice began to tremble.

"How could it be?" Angers asked in a low voice.

Old Tang poked his head in confusion, wondering why these people were silent.

At this moment, he was an assistant experimenter wearing a mask and preparing dissection equipment. His journey was so smooth. After walking around for a long time following the signs for "Ice Cellar", he entered what looked like a laboratory. In the space, what I saw was a group of men taking a shower, discussing something excitedly.

Old Tang heard them discussing the copper can and realized that today's shit haul was too big.

No one could see each other's faces clearly in the steaming heat, so Old Tang took off all his clothes and took a bath with them.

A dozen naked men were walking around in the steam, and Old Tang greeted a few of them as they passed by.

After bathing, the men took out sterile suits from the sealed plastic bags and dressed them from head to toe. The protection was tight, as if they were going to some virus laboratory or simply to land on the moon.

Old Tang realized that this was his perfect opportunity, so he enthusiastically went up and knocked unconscious a guy who was about the same height as him.

"I'm sorry, brother." Old Tang patted the lucky spectator on the shoulder with a hint of guilt.

Then he took his ID card and pinned it on his chest and put on his suit.

Then he entered this sealed laboratory made entirely of glass, and even opened his mask to drink a glass of champagne to celebrate the victory. He is a casual person. Anyway, when someone handed him a cart full of dissection equipment, he would just He touched the pile of equipment here and there, and he applauded when others applauded him.

No one paid attention to him, only the brass jar in the glass chamber.

"Anyway, the dissection continues." Angers raised his hand, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I can't wait an hour to obtain these important information."

The researchers began to applaud again. The principal's calmness and determination in unexpected events are always so convincing.

"Are the dissection equipment ready?" Angers asked.

Old Tang hurriedly raised his hand. He was pushing a completely non-metal cart, which displayed nano-material transparent scalpels, saws and scissors, as well as other tools that Old Tang couldn't name.

"For safety reasons, only the person responsible for the dissection will enter, and the others will be responsible for recording outside." Angers turned to Old Tang with an expectant expression and a meaningful tone, "Are you ready?"

Old Tang was stunned. He didn't understand why this person who looked like a leader suddenly said this to him. Did he see through his disguise? Cold sweat gradually broke out on Old Tang's back. Under the influence of this legendary dragon slayer, Before, it seemed like nothing was missing.

So he could only nod.

He didn't know what the Dragon King was, but he was sure that the knowledge of frog anatomy he had learned in high school biology class was not enough for him to cope with this level.

Fortunately, he still had his sawn-off shotgun tucked under the sterile suit, which gave him a little more confidence.

In fact, he wanted to just turn around and sneak away. Anyway, it seemed that he didn't have enough strength to move the valuable copper can alone.

But separated by a glass wall outside and a quartz glass cavity inside, he could only see a vague shadow of the copper tank, which was really not enough for him to accumulate enough materials to go back and brag about getting the 500 million US dollars.

We have to break into the dragon's den and the tiger's den!He made up his mind.Angers patted him on the shoulder, and the hatch leading to the cryogenic laboratory slid open. The white gas evaporated from the liquid nitrogen surged out and hit the mask, making Old Tang feel cold.

He walked into the cryogenic chamber. All he saw was white, with bright blue lights flashing all around. In the center was the oval quartz glass chamber with a huge copper tank inside, and liquid nitrogen vapor filled the air under his feet.

For a moment, he had the illusion that he was standing on an endless snowfield and heard a low call coming from a distance beyond his sight.

"elder brother."

What's going on? Why is it that kid again?Why on earth did he call him brother?I'm really not your brother!

Old Tang's head suddenly felt severe pain, as if something was trying to come out from the deepest place in his mind. He felt like there was a beast trapped in his heart, and now the beast roared, as if it was about to break the cage. .

The faint voices of two people talking could be heard in my ears.

"Brother, there are many people outside."

"Maybe die? But, Constantine, don't be afraid."

"I'm not afraid. I'm with my brother. I'm not afraid...but why...don't you eat me? If you eat me, you can break through any kind of cage."

"You are good food, but that would be too lonely. For thousands of years, you and I will be the only ones together."

"But death is really sad. It's like being sealed in a black box, forever and ever, pitch black... I want to grope in the dark, but I can't reach anything out..."

"The so-called fate of abandoning one's family is to cross the wilderness, raise the war flag again, and return to the hometown. Death is not terrible, it is just a long sleep. Before I can swallow this world, I expect to trek alone, it is better to sleep peacefully, we will still wake up Come."

"Brother... when you raise the battle flag and devour the world, will you eat me?" "Yes, then you will be with me and rule the world!"

"Really...is it possible?" Old Tang thought suddenly, and he felt dizzy in his mind, as if he was really standing by a well, listening to the people in the well talking, and in the darkness down the well, someone looked up at him At a glance, the well was very deep and he could fall into it at any time. He was inexplicably put into the perspective of the older man.

He felt that the older man would not really eat the child. He couldn't tell clearly, but he had an intuition in his heart.

"Damn, this is another line from such a second-rate stage play." Old Tang suddenly looked away, feeling a bit possessed. Things that are too ancient may have a bit of evil.

Fortunately, Old Tang never cared about strange powers and chaos.But my heart was still beating wildly.

"All those who are facing the battle are arrayed in front!" Old Tang finished reading this sentence in broken Chinese, took out the shotgun, turned around and pointed it at the stunned researchers outside the reinforced glass bottle, "Those who are not afraid of death are Put your hands up!"

He learned those nine words from watching cartoons, which are excellent at exorcising evil spirits. They are a good saying for gods to kill gods and Buddhas to block Buddhas.

Old Tang let out a long breath, and he didn't know whether it was because his words really worked or because he had a high level of concentration that the whispering voice in his mind disappeared.

Angers was stunned for a moment and immediately raised his hands. He seemed to be an old guy who knew current affairs. The researchers' eyes were full of "I don't believe it", but they also raised their hands after the principal.

Old Tang felt it was time to leave. He didn't want to get into any trouble. After all, it was his good friend Mingming's school, and he had already found the location of the things. Wouldn't it be better to just take 500 million US dollars and pat your butt and leave?
So he stepped forward and kicked the guy over with a flying kick, knocking down seven or eight researchers at the same time.Taking advantage of the chaos, Old Tang turned around and ran out of the laboratory.

"Stop him!" Angers shouted.The researchers woke up and swarmed outside.

……

……

In the shadow of the cryogenic hatch, someone sighed lowly, and everyone chased him out. No one noticed him in the chaos.

"The mission failed like this? Young people are really unreliable." He said softly.

He walked out of the shadows, reached into his trouser pocket, took out a tin bottle, walked to the quartz glass chamber, and inserted a black card into the card slot on the console.

"This operation will lead to the opening of "Dragon Lair", and "Norton, the Lord of Bronze and Fire" may awaken.Operation prohibited!Operation prohibited!Operation prohibited! "Norma's voice echoed above the laboratory, the buzzer sounded loudly, all the police lights turned on, and a red light rolled across the entire laboratory.

"Keep quiet, Norma, this is the time for us to witness a miracle." The man pulled the hand valve, cutting off the communication between the entire laboratory and Norma.

The main power supply is cut off, Norma's voice disappears, and the lights turn off one after another, leaving only the power-only alarm beeping and the police lights spinning.

The red of police lights flows in the darkness, like the red of magma, the red of blood... the red of doomsday.Light up the man's expressionless face.

The temperature rises rapidly, the high-speed rotating electron flow in the superconducting magnetic field attenuates, the quartz glass chamber suspended in mid-air slowly descends, the twelve sealing valves are released at the same moment, and a huge amount of white steam is ejected, which is enough to resist the strafing of a submachine gun The reinforced outer cover is open.

"I offer my bones and blood to the great His Majesty Nidhogg. He is the supreme, most powerful, and most virtuous existence, and rules the entire world with destiny." The man reached out and touched the quartz glass cavity and felt the vibration coming from inside. The shaking became more and more violent.

"It's great that you didn't keep me waiting too long!" The man pulled out a knife from his sleeve.A bright blue knife mark was left in the glass wall.The vacuum inside was broken, and air rushed in screaming.

The man cut off the neck of the gray tin bottle with a knife and aligned the cut with the crack.The gray tin-colored liquid followed the knife marks and entered the quartz glass cavity. It circulated along the inner wall of the glass wall like a thin snake, staying away from the copper tank in the center, as if it was afraid of it.

But as more and more liquid entered the glass cavity, the ash flow began to boil and bubble, making a peeling sound, like something alive, emitting... cheers before victory.

The man put the knife in his sleeve and exited the cryogenic laboratory.

He looked back for the last time by the door. All the gray tin solution flew away from the inner wall in an instant and "pounced" on the copper tank.

When the two come into contact, a violent corrosive effect occurs. The indestructible copper can is like a piece of cheese softened in a microwave oven, with dark green mist shooting out.

Indescribable low roars echoed in the cryogenic laboratory, anxious and manic.

"Welcome to the world, Constantine."

The man closed the door.

　I know this chapter is very clumsy and there is a lot of original text, but I still try my best to write it in my own words. Readers, please don’t scold me because I wrote this chapter after the last one. I originally wanted to combine the two into one and make a [-]-word chapter. , but a person who is very important to me will have a birthday tomorrow, and I’m afraid I won’t have time to update it, so I can only split the [-]-word chapter into two days to update it.

　　Thank you for your continued support
