Chapter 401: Evil Creatures from Outer Space



A special military helicopter descended from the sky with a rumbling sound, and ice chips kicked up by the propeller flew all over the sky.

"Professor Karl!"

Major General Hausman was a sturdy white man. He covered his forehead with one hand and shouted, "We're here."

His roar was not noticeable over the sound of the spinning propeller.

"Um."

Carl nodded and jumped out of the cabin.

His agile posture and flexible movements made Hausman raise his eyebrows slightly, and then he looked away.

It seems that Professor Carl is not as old as his age, nor as gentle as his temperament.

This is the polar region.

A temporary camp set up by the military.

Searchlights were placed all around, patrolling the camp, and some uniformed staff were busy.

"Mr. Auston."

Leading Carl to a tent, Hausman gestured, "This is Professor Carl, an expert in biological genetics. Professor, this is Mr. Austin, the sponsor of this operation."

It is well known that the federal military cooperates with various business groups, and some business groups even have their own independent armed forces.

army,

You also need to eat.

The federal government's salary alone is unlikely to be enough to cover the cost of conscription, so cooperation is inevitable.

"Auston?" Karl stretched out his hand and shook it gently. "I saw your interview on TV. You are praised as the most talented entrepreneur in the Federation in the past hundred years. It's nice to meet you."

"Me too." Austin wore gold-rimmed glasses, a slim-fitting suit, and a rapier at his waist. His outfit was a bit out of place, but he had a heroic air about him, which was completely different from ordinary businessmen.

He smiled and said, "Professor Carl's research on genetics is truly amazing. I have always wanted to visit you."

"Thank you for your help this time."

"Even if there is no military request, the reward alone is worth the trip." Carl smiled.

"Where is the stuff?"

"in!"

Hausman and Austin stepped back at the same time.

"Professor please!"

Behind the tent was a large base deep in the ice. Because it was located underground, it could not be seen from the outside.

The ice layer at the base is very thick, but there is still water underneath, and the base separates the water flow with a solid transparent object.

Carl touched the wall.

"This is a newly developed composite material that can withstand low temperatures. The lower the temperature, the higher its hardness."

Austin said:

“It’s worthless anywhere else, but it’s best suited to the polar regions where the temperature stays below zero.”

Carl nodded slowly.

Walking into the base, staff in safety uniforms are busy at work.

The most eye-catching thing here is a black sphere placed in the middle, which is completely frozen.

"professor."

Here, Auston is the master. He turns on the screen and zooms in on the details of the black sphere:

"This thing fell from the sky a dozen days ago. It's suspected to be a meteorite, but we analyzed it and found organic matter..."

"I guess it might be some kind of creature."

"Through several detection methods such as isotope decay, it was discovered that this organism is suspected to have existed hundreds of millions of years ago."

Hundreds of millions of years ago?

Karl's eyes moved slightly, and he opened the document handed to him.

"Fossils of organisms that are hundreds of millions of years old are not uncommon, but this thing... you said it's very likely to be alive?"

"yes."

Austin's face was solemn: "Still alive!"

"As long as the temperature is above a certain level, it will wake up. If it is below a certain level, it will fall into a dormant state. We don't know if it is dangerous, so please Professor Carl come and take a look."

"Yeah." Carl nodded, put down the information, and came to a small laboratory where there was a black stone the size of a fingernail.

The black stone is placed in a sturdy alloy container, and the reaction inside is observed through various instruments.

As the temperature rises, the black stone will liquefy and dissolve.

Temperature drops,

Then solidify.

“We tried.”

Major General Hausman of the military said in a serious voice:

"This thing is very hard and can withstand high temperatures. Only large machines can slowly grind and crush it."

"and……"

"Very aggressive!"

"Aggression?" Carl looked up: "Is anyone injured?"

"This..." Hausman's face changed slightly:

It seemed that someone had died in the process, or the injured person was under illegal surveillance, Carl understood.

"I need some time and some equipment."

After moving his hands and feet, he said:

"Have you arranged a lab for me? I took down the things I brought. They may be useful later."

"yes."

"Your lab is over here."

A few hours later.

Carl used pliers to hold a piece of hair-like thing and placed it in a petri dish, observing the changes in details.

"It's a very strange creature, with common features of carbon-based and silicon-based life forms, and possesses terrifying assimilation capabilities."

“Hmm…”

Read more of the latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

He raised his head and turned on the screen: "This is its true form."

Auston, who was woken up from his daze, instantly became interested and looked at the screen thoughtfully: "Parasite?"

"almost."

Carl nodded:

"That stone has nearly three million parasites, each of which can assimilate a living being."

"After being called, it can absorb nutrients from the host's body, split, reproduce, and expand the population."

"Assimilation and division are its genetic instincts, and at present this process seems irreversible."

?

Auston turned pale.

This is no longer interesting, but rather scary and horrific.

"extraordinary……"

"Professor Carl, how can we kill it?"

"It can be done with energy shocks exceeding a certain level, but ordinary people definitely don't have this means." Carl shook his head: "Lowering the temperature can reduce its biological activity. We should be thankful that it landed in the polar region."

coincide?

Definitely not!

This thing is destined to exterminate all living things. It must be the instinctive act of the remaining will of the gods.

"Destroy it!"

Auston growled, "We must destroy it!"

"yes."

Carl nodded:

"If this thing leaves the base and is revived, it will quickly become a disaster and destroy everything."

"They are the size of a hair and can be hidden in bread or soil, making them completely undetectable."

"One more thing..."

"This stone is not complete. Part of it must have been taken away. It needs to be recovered in time."

Incomplete? Austin's eyes flickered: "The polar research team took away some samples!"

He turned around, walked quickly to his residence and dialed a number.

Watching Auston's back as he left, Carl shook his head slightly and looked at the laboratory in front of him thoughtfully.

"From the sky..."

"Foreign gods!"

"It seems that the gods outside can no longer sit still. The Son of Destruction has inherited the poisonous nature of the blood race's faith, and can also reproduce. If it expands to other worlds..."

"Ragnarok is coming!"

* * * Yundun University.

Institute of Material Science.

It was already evening, but some researchers had not left yet and were observing a few black insects.

"professor."

A female graduate student spoke up: "Through our research, we found that black worms can parasitize the host and improve the host's physical qualities."

“This is a great discovery!”

Her voice was filled with excitement.

If we could extract substances that could improve physical fitness, it would surely shake up the entire biological community.

"So……"

The white-haired professor said, "The parasitized creature, is it the black bug or the original body?"

"This..." The girl was stunned.

"Bang!"

"Oh no! The infected rat broke the glass, bit Newman and escaped."

"What?"
