However, Lu Yuan couldn't share their joy at that moment.
Because in his mind there was something more important to take care of.
So where did this hide come from?
His feeling was that this thing didn't seem to have come down from a tree, but rather something related to trees.
Lu Yuan sensed a hint of danger, so he took what he needed and went to the laboratory at home to find Chen Yan.
When Chen Yan saw the piece of leather, she showed a look of surprise.
"Where did you get this? It's not fish glue, is it?"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "It's not fish glue, it's something we found on the exterior of that super giant tree underground!"
"What? It's not fish maw? How is that possible? This looks a lot like it."
After waving the things around a few times, Chen Yan even felt like she wanted to make soup.
I always felt that this thing was like fish glue, but Lu Yuan said that it wasn't.
He quickly turned on the instrument and put the thing inside.
After some testing, he gently shook the object he was holding and said, "The test results say this thing is rich in collagen, so I guess it's probably the skin that shed from some kind of food. Could there be some kind of creature underground?"
Lu Yuan shook his head; he could hardly believe it.
"Forget it, leave this here for now. Help me investigate as soon as possible. I suspect it's related to something else. Maybe I should go to the military and ask them if they've found anything."
After returning, Lu Yuan exchanged a few pleasantries with his family before immediately going to the military again.
This time, his identity is different from before. In the past, it was extremely difficult for Lu Yuan to enter the military.
Now, if he wants to enter the military, he can come and go as he pleases simply by using his access pass.
He is now considered a member of the military. Although he no longer needs to clock in at the prop room every day, his identity is indeed extremely special.
When Captain Liu saw Lu Yuan approaching, he was slightly taken aback and immediately realized that Lu Yuan had come to ask about something.
So he led Lu Yuan into the laboratory: "Are you asking about that leather thing from last time?"
Lu Yuan nodded without hesitation: "Yes, you have more people in the military, are you able to find out where this stuff came from?"
The other party sighed slightly and pointed outside: "We have just investigated and found that this thing appears in the body of a creature. We are now comparing it with several substances from ancient times."
We discovered that this substance is very likely an insect-like creature, and this insect is said to be hundreds of millions of years old, a substance that appeared during the very early stages of life on Earth!
"What? This thing comes from hundreds of millions of years ago?"
"That's right, that's what the experimental experts said, but I don't know much about this either. You know, I'm a bit of a roughneck. Why don't you go ask the military if they're actors?"
Lu Yuan was shocked to hear his words.
Next, the other party led Lu Yuan to a huge laboratory, where several pieces of equipment were packed with people, all busy at work.
Lu Yuan put on protective clothing and went inside.
Inside, a group of people were giving a report. When one of them saw Lu Yuan, he immediately exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone turned around to look, and when they saw it was Lu Yuan, they immediately surrounded him.
Lu Yuan has now become a celebrity in their area.
Last time they kept mocking Lu Yuan, but now they never expected that Lu Yuan would casually produce something that allowed them to instantly kill that giant tree. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had today's experiment.
And the objects they are now experimenting on are those skin-like things found underwater.
This kind of thing exists in large quantities at the bottom of the water. It looks like something shed from the body of some organism. They are still conducting tests on it.
Similar to what Captain Liu said, these things all come from the skin of a creature from 100 million years ago. They have now analyzed it and determined that it is the shell of a crustacean-like organism.
After molting, these insects leave their shells in the water. Once they become adults, they burrow deep into the soil to hibernate for periods ranging from several months to several years.
At this point, after asking the other party some questions, Lu Yuan finally learned that these things were indeed insects.
However, they currently do not know where the live samples of these insects are.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Yuan said, "By the way, didn't the Blue Star people conduct drilling underground when they left? Could these things be in their military base? Could they be related to them? Why don't we go and investigate their military base?"
Lu Yuan's words immediately put everyone on alert, and a look of vigilance flashed in Lieutenant Liu's eyes.
After all, the Earthlings' base was extremely important to them.
It's now a very sensitive topic, and very few people are willing to bring it up.
But Lu Yuan has now brought up this matter and is thinking of checking it out.
Does he have some ulterior motive?
The lab technicians all stopped what they were doing, but Lu Yuan didn't notice him continuing to talk about his ideas.
Everyone couldn't help but steal a glance in Lieutenant Liu's direction.
Lieutenant Liu whispered a few words to the person next to him, and the person immediately left.
