Chapter 305 "Death by Light"

A beige linen shirt with two breasts on the chest, a tan coat decorated with some kind of animal skin as a waistcoat on the shoulders, looser trousers and a pair of short-heeled leather boots.

Zhu Jue always thought that people in that era either wore tattered commoner clothes, or delicate and cumbersome aristocratic costumes, or priests' loose coats.

However, when he received the item and unfolded it on the bed, he couldn't believe that it was actually a medieval dress. He even had a chat with the seller about it, and the other party said that it was a costume for a performance, and it must have gone through a certain process. Processed, in this era, unless it is specially made to order, who would eat a full set of clothes according to the tailoring techniques of the Middle Ages?
Of course, the other party also assured that this suit was generally made in the style of the Middle Ages, and it would be difficult for people who did not have an in-depth study of the costume design and tailoring skills at that time to recognize it.

Zhu Jue couldn't say anything about it, time was running out, and it was pretty good to be able to get this set of clothes.

Taking off the shirt on his body, Zhu Jue is going to try the suit first to see if it fits well. Fighting is inevitable for the first trip, and he can't fight those monsters wrapped up like a rice dumpling.

ding dong~
Just as he was taking off his pants, the doorbell rang suddenly.

"1103, who is at the door?"

He put on his pants again, grabbed the Mikazuki Tachi next to him, and asked aloud.

Immediately, the image of the door of the room appeared on the smart screen on the window.

Olivia was standing sideways at the door looking to the right, not knowing what to look at.

Throw the whole set of clothes into the closet before opening the door. The current address is the one that Olivia told her when she came back from Guangling City, but Zhu Jue didn't expect her to come to the door.

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

Open the door to welcome Olivia in. The storage box is locked in the studio, and Zhu Jue is not worried that she will find out.

"I sent you several messages, didn't you see it?"

Olivia looked at the room and looked at Zhu Jue suspiciously. She had contacted Zhu Jue two hours ago, but she hadn't responded. She thought something happened to him, so she came to visit him.

"Information. Oh, I played the game all morning, and I was unpacking just now, so I didn't pay attention."

Zhu Jue looked back at the mobile phone that was thrown on the sofa, and wanted to ask the scavenger to bring it for him, but realized that Olivia was in front of him, so he could only walk over by himself.

"It's been five years, why do you still play games whenever you have free time?"

Some helplessly glanced at the VR device on the carpet in the center of the room and a lot of snacks. He was like this five years ago, and he is still the same five years later.

He was obviously so reliable during the video shooting process, but once he returned to the studio, he spread out on the sofa like a salted fish all day long, and it was too troublesome to even flop twice.

"Hey~ It's been five years for you, but it's only a few months for me. Besides, I'm usually very tired. I have to find a way to relax."

Helping Fengling unpack the package of dried fish that it picked up, Zhu Jue looked down at the information on TALK.

"Would you like to see the corpse with me later? The Archaeological Association has just transported it from the Agate River Valley. According to the data, it is a very special corpse."

Actively bent down to pick up all the junk food and pile them on the edge of the low table, Olivia said, looking up at the man who was reading the messages on his mobile phone while talking to you and me, gnawing small dried fish.

"Hey, I'm eating, can you stop being so heavy on the first meeting?"

Zhu Jue looked at the photos of corpses in TALK and the abstract black-and-white paintings that reveal the weirdness everywhere. He is still interested in these things recently. The evolutionary meat can no longer satisfy Zhu Jue. He needs to find other acquisition abilities The method, after thinking about it, continued,

"Is it suitable? I haven't joined the Archaeological Association yet. If someone finds out, won't you be punished?"

"I was promoted to the leader of the field team the day before yesterday, and I am fully capable of handling special affairs alone. This is my job, and there is no need to ask anyone for instructions, and what I am going to is the subsidiary organization of the Archaeological Association in Dawn City , the people inside only authenticate documents, you can preview what you will do after becoming my subordinate."

Naturally, this special corpse could not be placed within the Archaeological Association, but agreed to be sent to a subsidiary organization with professional equipment.

Since it has no effect, when Zhu Jue was bored as an assassin all morning, going out to look at the dead body can be regarded as a change of mood. God knows what mood he wants to change.

"Where did you get this photo?"

Walking into the elevator with only the mobile phone and the wind chime, Zhu Jue handed over the mobile phone and asked.

The content in the photo is a very strange abstract painting, the whole is only black and white in two tones, the white is the background, and the black lines are the outline of the terrifying portrait.

In the painting is a person surrounded by dozens of tentacles. His or her cheek is not a normal human shape, but more like a naked flesh and blood after the skin has been peeled off. The eye sockets are deeply sunken, and inside are two black The pupils and hair are still there, but they don't bring even a trace of humanity to the portrait, which makes people feel even more weird.

The person in the portrait puts his hands in front of his body, but this action is not like a normal arrangement, but grabs the skin of his chest and abdomen as if suffering some kind of pain, and the scratched parts are covered with dense Lines and black shadows suggest a certain unsightly picture.

"It was found near the corpse. The painter and owner have not been found yet. The Archaeological Association has conducted internal evaluations. The original painting seems to have an impact on the human spirit. This is a direction of investigation. After the report of the corpse here comes out I'm going to take someone to the local area to have a look. Is your citizenship certificate ready?"

There are only a few days left before the Archaeological Association's external recruitment, and Olivia's question obviously wants Zhu Jue to participate in her first field mission.

In her opinion, even today, five years later, the people in the Archaeological Association still have no experience in fighting monsters that are sources of spiritual pollution comparable to Zhu Jue.

"It was done two days ago, let's go, I still have things to do at night, so I only have one afternoon."

Although Olivia expressed that she wanted Zhu Jue to preview what she would do as a subordinate, the latter opened the co-pilot's door as a matter of course.

There is no way, Zhu Jue really doesn't know anything about high-tech vehicles of this era.

When the two arrived at the door of the subsidiary organization of the Archaeological Association, there were already people waiting here.

"Team leader, I've already communicated with the people in the institution to ask them to conduct a more comprehensive examination of the corpse. Who is this?"

As Olivia's assistant all along, after she was successfully promoted to the field department, Zhang Ming naturally transferred to the new department. In the Archaeological Association, the field department is the most dangerous department with a high mortality rate, and it is also Because of this, the Field Service Department has always been the department with the best welfare in the Archaeological Association except for the Scholars Association.

Not only can you get the matching test opportunity of special potions for free, but every mission will have extremely rich rewards.

And this time is not only Olivia's first mission, but also his first mission, so he is naturally very concerned about it. Who would have thought that the team leader would suddenly turn to another place on the road, and come back with personal.

Zhang Ming remembered him, the man who was photographed by the telecommunications bureau's drone at that time!
"This is my advisor, you can tell them that when people ask later."

For a brief introduction, Olivia didn't say much, and Zhu Jue didn't even bother to spend time here, but simply shook hands with Zhang Ming, and walked in after getting to know each other.

Zhang Ming was startled for a moment, then he seemed to realize something, and took a few steps to follow.

The incandescent lamp on the roof suddenly turned on, and some dazzling light filled the mortuary with gray and white as the main color.

"The corpse is very decomposed. I suggest that you wear a mental protection device first. If you are weak, it's better to wait outside for the test results."

The researchers in the affiliated institutions wore white coats, held recorders in their hands, and recorded something on them with electronic pens.

Olivia didn't answer, and took a step forward to lift the white cloth. The moment the corpse appeared, everyone in the room couldn't help but stagnate.

Zhu Jue and the researchers are undoubtedly the fastest to recover. The former has seen more disgusting ones, while the latter has seen it several times before, and has already prepared for it. Olivia frowned and quickly adjusted her state. As for Zhang Ming next to him, his face was pale and he kept swallowing his saliva.

"If you can't bear it, you can go out first."

Olivia, who noticed that the assistant's situation was not right, said aloud, in her opinion, it doesn't matter whether Zhang Ming is here or not.

"It's okay, I can hold on."

Normally, Zhang Ming might leave, but when he saw the man next to him, whose face remained unchanged and who was still eating small dried fish with ease, he couldn't move forward no matter what.

But Zhu Jue had no time to look at the state of others at this time, the corpse in front of him attracted all his attention.

The appearance of this corpse is 10% similar to the one in the portrait, the only special thing is that on its chest, there is a network of blood threads close to [-]cm in diameter.

"How did this come about?"

Zhu Jue pointed to the piece of skin showing a special abnormal shape, looked at the researcher and asked straightforwardly.

"There is no detailed evaluation result yet. We suspect that it is based on the result of some kind of body mutation, because the condition of this corpse is very strange. Its current state can be said to be a veritable 'death to light'."

The body was delivered in the early hours of yesterday and this morning, and the overall inspection has not yet started, so the researchers can only give what they know.

"Seeing the light to die?"

"Let me do an experiment for you. Wharton, turn on the ultraviolet light."

The researchers took a portable ultraviolet light off the side and pointed it at the corpse's palm.

In just a few seconds, the place illuminated by the light began to rot!
