Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, everyone's thoughts began to stir.
After all, this method of gaining abilities sounds really interesting.
But after all, these are artifacts left over from hundreds of thousands of years ago; who knows if they might be fake?
Could this stone slab be a prank?
So now everyone is starting to wonder about the origin of this stone slab.
However, Lu Yuan eventually persuaded everyone to dismantle the lizard's bones.
After all, the lizard's bones are quite large, and if the bone problem isn't resolved soon, their progress will be delayed even longer.
Lu Yuan didn't bring much food this time. He was so focused on rescuing people that he didn't bring many supplies with him. Now they are consuming a lot of food every day, so Lu Yuan is worried that if they waste any more time, the lizard they finally managed to kill will be snatched up by someone else.
So, after distributing the tools, Lu Yuan immediately led his men to start dismantling the bones.
There were many bones, and they were quite large. Although some of them were blown to pieces by the missile, some could still be found on the ground.
Because the project was huge, Lu Yuan knew it couldn't be completed in a short time, so he specifically assigned people to keep watch nearby so that they would receive an alarm immediately if any creature or human approached.
As time went by, half of the lizard's bones had been removed, with the remaining half consisting mainly of the skull and shoulder bones.
These bones are the largest and most difficult to disassemble.
The military abandoned the meat from the lizard's head because they were concerned that it might contain toxins.
Lu Yuan and his team's task is much more difficult than before; they need to clean out the meat before they can remove the bones.
However, the flesh on that skull was truly disgusting, at least that's how Chen Luo felt.
The meat on this piece has a strong smell, and the meat near the teeth is very sticky.
Chen Yan has already tested the mucus. These substances are highly corrosive and will bring a large number of pathogens into the body once they come into contact with it, and will also rot the skin.
For this reason, Lu Yuan specially prepared a lot of protective clothing, since they still needed to enter the lizard's mouth to conduct an examination.
The protective suits are made of silk, so their protective level is very high. At least Chen Luo has never seen any liquid that can destroy this special type of silk fabric.
However, just in case, Lu Yuan also found some professional protective clothing to wear on the outside.
And so, Lu Yuan led everyone to the oral cavity area.
However, the smell inside was not so pleasant; a strong, sour stench assaulted everyone's noses.
"It stinks! Guys, quickly put on your protective masks, be careful not to get burned in your nose by the acidic fumes!"
Lu Yuan smelled it and immediately sensed something was wrong, so he distributed an oxygen mask to everyone.
Next, they went to the throat area and began to make the incision.
With a cutting sound, the lizard's upper and lower jaws finally separated.
A large amount of acid and various dried bloodstains were scattered all over the ground.
The whole scene looked like a mess.
Looking at the severed head, Lu Yuan felt that the crystal was located inside.
After looking at the enormous head, Lu Yuan took a deep breath and glanced at his family members around him: "Let's begin!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the project began immediately. They first brought in a cutting machine to cut open the outermost layer of skin.
Then comes the second layer of meat, which has dried out somewhat, so cutting it is like cutting wood.
After a lot of effort, the meat was finally cleaned.
Everyone was exhausted, and looking at the white bones below, Lu Yuan felt a surge of excitement.
"You rest first, I'll take care of the bone-breaking work!"
No one objected, and Lu Yuan, along with Wang Mingming, began to perform open surgery on the lizard's skull.
As the ear-piercing sound of chainsaws echoed, the crack in the lizard's skull grew wider and wider.
Looking at the shattered fragments scattered on the ground, Lu Yuan exclaimed, "That lizard's skull is incredibly hard!"
Wang Mingming also looked exhausted.
However, he looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of suspicion and asked, "Brother Lu, is it really like you said, that there are crystals in here?"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "It wasn't me who said it, it was written on that stone slab! I feel like it should work! Let's get to work! Oh right! Find the jack, use that thing to open it! Otherwise, it will take us a long time to open it all!"
So Wang Mingming ran outside as fast as she could.
Soon, Wang Mingming returned with the items. By then, everyone had rested enough and stood on the lizard's skull to wait.
Lu Yuan and Wang Mingming placed the hydraulic jack into the crevice of the lizard's skull.
As Lu Yuan gradually increased the height of the jack, the cracks in the lizard's skull began to widen.
The "clucking" sound kept coming.
The jack is also nearing its limit.
Just then, Lu Yuan increased his strength again, and then he felt the entire lizard's skull begin to tremble. Then Lu Yuan shouted loudly.
"Watch out! Your skull is about to crack!"
