Chapter 252
There were twelve or thirteen cages in the open space behind the Medical Purification Department building. The beasts imprisoned in the cages were tied up with thick metal chains. Even so, the fierceness and hostility emanating from them was enough to give people a strong sense of oppression.
This was a very shocking scene.
Even the little wolf cub, who was always fearless, was frightened and took a step back when he rushed into the open space.
The black panther that suddenly jumped out of the cage also made the little wolf cub subconsciously take a defensive posture.
But no one expected that in less than a second, the deafening roar stopped.
The big black panther that had just pounced on the iron cage had not had time to close its mouth. Its originally ferocious roar seemed to be cut off by someone.
Even from its furry face, one could see a trace of embarrassment, and of course more of fear and uneasiness.
Its line of sight passed over the cubs and fell on the thin figure behind them. When the man's eyes fell on it carelessly, the black panther could not help but tuck its tail tightly, lowered its head and slowly backed away.
In the end, the big black panther, like other ferocious beasts, lay quietly in the cage and did not dare to make any more mistakes.
"Langze, are you okay?" Lu Jiao stepped forward and asked the little wolf cub who was still in a daze.
Langze came back to his senses and shook his head.
He didn't say anything, just looked at the beasts locked in the cages, and suddenly he lost the excitement and joy of going out to play.
Why are they locked up?
This reminded him of his past self, especially the chains, which hurt Langze's eyes.
However, when his eyes fell on the big black panther that wanted to attack him just now, Langze understood that the reason they were locked up like this was because they were too dangerous, so as not to let them hurt others.
Although he understood this, it didn't stop him from looking at these beasts, and he felt uncomfortable.
The other cubs were also observing the beasts in the cages.
The beasts that were baring their fangs and claws just now, looking at the ferocious beasts, now all retracted their claws obediently, and tucked their tails tightly behind them. Some of the particularly timid ones even shrank into the corner, trembling with their backs to them.
The cubs, who probably knew why the beasts became like this, couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Su Ci.
Is Su Su so scary?
Thinking of the look of his rage on that unspeakable night... the cubs swallowed their saliva and quickly retracted their gaze.
"You... here..."
The guards who chased after them looked at the beasts that had become extremely well-behaved, and couldn't help but wonder if they were dreaming. The words they were going to scold also became incoherent.
But soon a voice rescued him.
"Keeper Su?"
Gu Qingchen's voice rang out from the other side of the field. He was also shocked by the change of the beast, but when he saw Su Ci and the cubs, he was soon surprised.
He sent the guards away and asked Su Ci with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"Come and take a look." Su Ci came to the first cage and looked at the big black panther.
Although it was lying on the ground, it was not much shorter than Langze and the others. It had a tall skeleton, but its fur color and condition were not good. It didn't have much meat and felt a bit skinny.
Gu Qingchen stood beside Su Ci, wanting to say something but stopping.
After the arrival of these beasts, he made his own rescue plan. In fact, the reason why these beast warriors lost their minds was mainly due to the influence of pollutants.
Now with the emergence of purifying green plants, there are no more pollutants in the base. The source is isolated. As long as the pollutants in the bodies of these warriors are purified and removed, they should be able to become normal people again.
The only difficulty now is that these warriors are too fierce after being transformed into beasts...
Gu Qingchen dare not touch their bodies at all. Fortunately, after learning from Su Ci, he has learned the purification technique of telekinesis.
However, in order to guard against these beasts, this metal cage is made very dense, and the mesh left is relatively small, which brings a lot of trouble to his purification technique.
So after more than a week, his progress was still slow.
Unexpectedly, he didn't go to find Su Ci, but this big guy actually came to find him! And this shocked all the beasts!
Gu Qingchen wondered why Su Ci came here, whether he also felt sympathy for these warriors, so he took the initiative to help?
Then he heard Su Ci say: "You continue to work."
Gu Qingchen opened his mouth, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, you can call me if you need anything."
Then he continued to the other side of the field.
The cubs also ran over behind him to see, and saw Gu Qingchen came to a cage, and the cage was locked with a black and gray bear.
Unlike the cute iron-eating beast, this big black bear looks very tough to mess with, and it has a sharp horn on its head.
"Doctor Gu, what kind of beast is this?" Lu Jiao asked curiously.
"This is a thunderstorm horned bear." Gu Qingchen explained, "Its sharp horns can easily pierce the metal shell of the mecha, and it can also trigger lightning to attack."
Although it sounds scary, this big black bear is in the best condition among all the beasts. It was tied up tightly with chains but did not struggle, let alone attack Gu Qingchen. It is the focus of his purification this week.
And his purification technique has slowly produced some results. At least this big black bear, now sitting in the cage with no desire for life, looks quite like a human being...
"Do we have to keep them locked up like this?" Langze couldn't help but come closer and asked in a somewhat depressed tone.
"No."
Gu Qingchen shook his head, "They are not real beasts, but completely bestial beasts after losing their minds. I am purifying them now, and when they regain their minds, they will be free."
"So that's it!"
Langze felt much better and quickly encouraged Gu Qingchen, "Then Doctor Gu, you have to work hard!"
Gu Qingchen smiled bitterly, but still nodded.
The cubs looked at each cage one by one, and were more curious and yearning for these adult beasts. Even Rong Heng and Ran Lie, as the two cubs who had been the most bestial, inevitably had complicated feelings.
If they hadn't met Su Su and hadn't practiced with Su Su, would they have become such mad beasts?
Fortunately, Su Su came to them, and the gods of this planet saved them!
Langze didn't think too much. He wanted to let these ferocious beasts regain their freedom as soon as possible, so he kept circling around Gu Qingchen to see how he purified the big black bear.
Finally, he couldn't help but say, "Doctor Gu, why don't you open the cage? I think it will be faster inside the cage!"
Gu Qingchen: "..."
Does it mean that he will die faster?
However, seeing the child's sincere face, he could only bite the bullet and say, "It's...too dangerous."
"Doctor Gu, you are so brave!" Langze said, "They look very well behaved!"
Gu Qingchen also felt that the beasts were very well behaved today, but he still didn't dare to commit suicide, so he had to look at Su Ci for help.
Who knew that after Su Ci met his line of sight, he nodded and said, "If you want to go in, go in."
"..."
That's not what he meant!
However, Gu Qingchen reacted quickly. He looked at Su Ci and asked tentatively, "Keeper Su, can I really go in?"
Su Ci looked at his trembling appearance and finally nodded.
Gu Qingchen instantly gained courage.
With Keeper Su here, what is he afraid of!
Since Keeper Su said it was okay, how could he not give it a try? If he could operate at a close distance, his work efficiency would be greatly improved!
Gu Qingchen did what he said. He asked the cubs to move away to avoid accidents, and then opened the door of the cage after multiple verifications and unlocking.
The moment the cage door opened, the big black bear, who had been sitting paralyzed in the corner with no desire for life, suddenly raised his head and looked over here.
The air froze at this moment.
Gu Qingchen felt the big black bear's gaze and his scalp tingled, but he still forced himself to remain calm, until... the big black bear withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened and continued to stay where he was without moving.
It's safe!
Gu Qingchen heaved a sigh of relief, and then he approached the big black bear carefully, stopped when he was one meter away from its paws, and then cast a purification spell for it.
A minute later, Gu Qingchen slowly withdrew his supernatural power.
He found that the big black bear really did not attack him. Before he could be happy, he accidentally glimpsed the scene in the next cage and was so scared that he almost screamed.
He saw that the cage next door was opened at some point, and Lu Jiaorongheng and a blue-haired boy he didn't know ran into that cage!
Imprisoned in that cage was a snow fox.
Of course, after living in the red mist for many years, its hair is no longer smooth and shiny, and its original color can't be seen. One of its eyes is injured, and obvious scratches can be seen.
Its condition is very bad and it looks very pitiful, but it is indeed a ferocious beast!
And after being injured, it has become even more ferocious!
Although the children in the nursery have formed a cub team and achieved very good results, in Gu Qingchen's eyes, these cubs are still children who need protection.
He didn't care about the big black bear anymore, and ran out of the cage quickly, trying to drive the cubs out of the cage next door.
However, the situation was obviously different from what he imagined.
The snow fox was indeed in a state of stress. Although it did not dare to act rashly because of Su Ci's appearance, it still showed its aggressiveness when the cubs approached.
It crouched down, bared its teeth, and issued a low warning sound from the bottom of its throat.
"Eka." Rong Heng held his small sword and called the boy softly.
Then Gu Qingchen finally rushed to the cage door and saw the blue-haired boy stretched out his hands. A faint ball of light emerged from his palms, and he threw it lightly and landed on the one-eyed snow fox.
The snow fox, which was originally full of hostility, showed a trace of doubt in its eyes, and then slowly retracted its attacking posture.
Gu Qingchen was stunned.
This blue-haired boy... is also a purifier? Why hasn't he seen him before!
While he was shocked, the big black bear next door, who had gotten up secretly at some point, poked his head out of the cage that was not closed properly, and then... when he raised his eyes, he met Su Ci's half-smiley eyes.
"..."
The big black bear took a half step back, and with a clatter of its paws, it closed the cage door again.
