Chapter 585 Meeting, Toxin
Chapter 585 Meeting, Toxin (5k)
In a small manor on the island country, a handsome man was watching a short video clip he had just received.
In the video, the office building in the front yard of Decheng Funeral Home was shaking noticeably, and the decorative or insulating layer on the exterior facade was falling off on a large scale. Obvious signs of fire and cracks could be seen in some places.
It looked like an earthquake, but there were no reports of earthquakes in the local area, and the sea was calm a few hundred meters away.
The video itself seemed to be subject to extremely strong interference, with the picture constantly flickering and snowflakes appearing.
After watching this scene, he put away his equipment.
Opposite him, a chef wearing an apron was helping him prepare food.
"This is the freshest, unbred rabbit meat, with a very low fat content and a very good taste."
"Not bad, very tender yet chewy." The handsome man praised.
After dinner, the handsome man sat alone inside drinking tea. His brows were relaxed and he seemed to be in a good mood, without any of his previous anxiety.
Opposite him, wisps of smoke and dust floated, gradually condensing into a figure who was about 1.56 meters tall sitting there. The other person imitated the handsome man, picked up a small teacup with two fingers, opened his mouth full of sharp teeth, and threw the teacup directly into his mouth.
"Your preferences are really strange."
"I'll say it again, you can't eat tableware, and you can't eat tea sets either." The handsome man said casually, but he didn't really care that the other party ate this expensive antique tea set as a snack.
"Didn't you fail? Why do you look so happy?"
"Failure and victory are not calculated in this way. I have several goals, but achieving just one is enough. I didn't expect someone I brought in temporarily to accomplish such a difficult task."
Seeing that the guy with a mouth full of sharp teeth didn't seem to understand, the handsome man changed his words.
"Would you risk your life for someone else's food?"
"No." The Sharp-toothed Monster shook his head decisively.
"Yeah, I never expected the people who were doing the work to risk their lives for the tasks I gave them. Asking them to rob things was just to express an attitude."
The handsome man actually didn't care. He never expected that dirty guy who took advantage of the situation to get anything done.
He knew clearly what kind of person Luo Liang was. Even according to his estimation, if Luo Liang tried his best, the probability of beating Wen Yan was very low, but the probability of him stealing things was actually not low.
But it is obvious that it is unrealistic to expect Luo Liang to fight Wen Yan with all his strength.
Because they really can't be sure of one thing now, whether Wen Yan is Tuoba Wushen or not. There is indirect evidence to prove that he is not, for example, there was one in the East China Sea before, but on the other side, in the Great Wilderness, a very strong guy also appeared with extremely strong yang energy.
But this is just a rumor. There is not a single survivor left in the wilderness. The alien creatures that are far away can only sense that the way they slaughtered the monsters there does not seem to rely on yang energy at all.
And the person who slaughtered all the monsters that rushed out in Decheng by himself was not Wen Yan, but the elusive evil star.
He still hasn't got much useful information, because in the Lieyang tribe, there is no record of the evil star himself. There are only some taboos in Decheng related to the evil star.
They could vaguely judge that order was the key to preventing the big evil from showing up.
So much so that now, without direct evidence that is 100% certain, no one dares to believe that Wen Yan is not Tuoba Wushen.
When doing things, one has to consider both the possibility that Wen Yan is Tuoba Wushen and that Wen Yan is not Tuoba Wushen as the premise at the same time.
I am more conflicted than before, but I dare not not be conflicted.
"How was your conversation with those ghosts? Have you contacted the Death Knight on Robin's side?"
"No, he's so elusive that we can't find him." The sharp-toothed monster replied casually, and immediately changed the subject, with a bit of anxiety in his tone: "When can we go to Shenzhou?"
"If you can get to the Tianshi Mansion and kill the old Tianshi, you can go now." The handsome man retorted bluntly.
The Sharp-Tooth Monster bared its teeth and let out a low growl from its throat. At least it could understand the sarcasm of the words.
"We have an agreement. If you play tricks, the previous agreement will be completely invalidated."
The handsome man changed his mind and said.
"There's definitely no problem sending you there, but it's not safe.
Think it over. If you really have to go there in a hurry, I can take you there.
But after that, whatever happens, it has nothing to do with me.”
"can."
"Okay, then you can go and get ready. I'll make arrangements and send you there in the next two days."
The sharp-toothed monster disappeared in a puff of black smoke, but the handsome man was still smiling, not caring at all about being threatened.
He took out his cell phone, opened an app, scrolled down, and a long list of contacts appeared. He clicked on one of the people marked as Taohuaxiangzhong and left a message for him.
"Within two days, I need you to prepare and bring a few people to Decheng. You only need to bring them. When you are ready, report to me."
This information was automatically broken up through various springboards and packages and sent out to a small website.
Then he scrolled through the address book again, selected another person marked with a skull, and left a message for him.
"I think we can talk about our previous deal."
On the other side, the people of Taohua Village received another message. He just took a look at it and ignored it.
He began to feel unsafe, so he wanted to take his wife to Decheng. He knew more than most people. In fact, there were quite a few outliers who went to Decheng this year. They were all the kind of people who wanted to find a good job and wanted to be in a relatively safe place.
Previously, Dezhou fit the latter category, but this year there are more opportunities there, so it fits the former category again.
The people in Taohua Township know of an outlier who was even willing to change his original 26th salary of 18k to th salary of k and was willing to switch to Decheng. There were more than one or two such people, and the employers had some illusions that the conditions they offered were very popular.
Taohua Township residents have asked someone to contact the HR of Nanqiang Law Firm. With his level and qualifications, it is not easy for him to get a direct job at Nanqiang Law Firm, but as an economics consultant, it will be no problem for Ken to go to a place like Decheng.
He can accept a low basic salary and be paid on a per-work basis.
Later, after his wife was transferred there, she went to work in the university town. According to Decheng’s policy, he could get a quota as a family member.
When the time comes, I will take this quota to join the Decheng branch of Nanqiang Law Firm and can also reduce taxes for the company.
It is easy to operate.
The only difficulty is his identity, and the boss of the Decheng branch is Zhuge Wanjun.
He also needed to sign a contract with Zhuge Wanjun, both to reassure Wen Yan and himself.
These are all things for the future. Now we have to arrange how to get there.
He asked an agent to look at three houses for him, and next he would go and see them in person to decide which one he wanted.
The next day, which was the weekend, he booked a ticket and went to Germany with his still confused wife.
The house-hunting process was quick, and his wife fell in love with one of the houses with good basic decoration, but this time, he took the initiative and chose the one closest to Wen Yan's house.
The agent hesitated to speak. Seeing that the customer was very happy and willing to pay, he wanted to say something but finally held back.
The people of Taohua Township certainly know why.
Of course he knew that the main intersection was actually quite dangerous, but he came to Decheng just to be closer to Wen Yan's home and take advantage of the benefits here.
If they have all fled to Decheng and live far away from Wen Yan's home, why bother coming to Decheng?
If something happens at the main intersection and can spread outside the community, it doesn't matter whether he lives in the north or south of the city.
The people of Taohua Township made arrangements quickly and vigorously. After arranging his wife, at the appointed time, he came to the law firm and met the eccentric lawyer who was famous in Nanwu County.
At night, Wen Yan was in Fuyu Mountain. He had just finished practicing boxing with the younger generation and was about to see if he could take his family back when he received a call from Zhuge Wanjun.
"Hey, Wanjun, what's the matter?"
"Are you free? If you are, come and visit me. I have something to tell you."
"Okay, I'll be there in a minute, half an hour."
Wen Yan didn't ask what it was about. If it wasn't absolutely necessary, Zhuge Wanjun would definitely not invite him over for a meeting.
Wen Yan held the little zombie in his arms, comforted it for a while, and let them stay in Buyeo Mountain for two more days.
The skeleton dog bit his trouser leg and refused to let go because it had suddenly sensed that Wen Yan had become very far away, as if he was dead, and the skeleton dog was very worried.
"Don't worry, I was just going to a place before, nothing happened."
After comforting him, Wen Yan returned to Decheng first.
When I arrived at Zhuge Wanjun's office, I saw the people from Taohua Village.
As soon as they met, Wen Yan knew it was a member of Taohua Village. This guy dared to show up directly in Decheng and come to Zhuge Wanjun. Wen Yan really didn't expect it.
"Boss, it seems you have met before, then you can chat first, it's safe here, don't worry."
Zhuge Wanjun served Wen Yan tea and left the room. "What on earth do you want to do by running to Decheng?"
"Tonight, or tomorrow night, I will bring a few things I don't know what they are to Decheng. I haven't received more specific information yet."
"You just told me that directly?"
"It doesn't matter whether I tell you or not. From what I know about the boss, he wants to send something here and die. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked me to send something here directly. If he asked me to send it, he must have started to suspect me."
"What do you want?"
"I think my wife and I have found refuge in Decheng."
Wen Yan looked at the prompt and saw some changes in it.
"Power is power, consciousness is consciousness, half human, half ghost, the separation is almost complete, human is human, ghost is ghost."
Wen Yan looked at the thing hanging on the other person's chest, and roughly understood why this Taohua Villager was so strange. He was completely different from the Taohua Villagers in the records.
I don’t know where this guy learned it from, but he used the methods of the inner alchemy school to make an external elixir.
He is now equivalent to a person who possesses the power of the people in Taohua Township.
As he was talking, Taohua Villager looked at his phone and saw a message on it.
He opened it in front of Wen Yan, took a look and said.
"After 11 o'clock tonight, complete the reception as close to the Decheng Funeral Home as possible. My job is only to receive the deceased. I don't need to do anything else."
After hearing this, Wen Yan believed the words "sent here specifically to die".
The incident at Decheng Funeral Home just happened yesterday. The preliminary assessment of the office building has been completed on an expedited basis. The office building in the front yard has become a dangerous building and needs to be demolished. When it is rebuilt next time, the foundation must also be reinforced.
Wen Yan felt that the curator didn't even want to put on an act anymore. Who was he trying to fool when he finished the evaluation in just one day? If he wanted to rebuild the building, he should just say so.
At this time, the Decheng Funeral Home was still closed, and there were quite a few people from the Lieyang Tribe around.
What's the difference between throwing an alien here now and directly pushing the opponent into the steel furnace?
I don't even want to act anymore.
Having said that, what needs to be done must still be done.
When Wen Yan was about to stake out and see what the thing was, the Skeleton Mage Bourne came to him.
He could only notify Pei Tugou first and ask him to pay attention to it.
He came to the underground beehive and flashed into Born's level. After entering, the yang energy in his body was automatically stimulated and prompts appeared in front of his eyes.
"Special effects never set, no sun walking activated."
“Never sets: The rising sun in your heart will never set, making you immune to most negative effects.”
“Walking without Day: You can use your physical body to walk in places that your physical body cannot normally go to, and you are immune to the inherent environmental damage in those places (this immunity effect will be weakened in part and applied to other scenarios).
"Enter the characteristic environment and gain negative buffs."
"Your poison resistance is reduced by 50%."
“Get immune.”
Wen Yan frowned. He didn't smell anything, nor did he see anything.
Fortunately, he had been very cautious before and completely sealed off this level of Borne. Even if he wanted to come in, he could only flash in.
"Born, what's going on here?"
"Boss, I finally figured out what those poisons are for.
The initial toxin was too potent to spread.
The later ones were different. Their lethality was extremely low, so low that it could be completely ignored. They couldn’t even kill rats.
I experimented many times and read a lot of information given by my boss before I found the right direction.
This toxin actually has no lethality at all.
In addition to being easily spread, the biggest effect of this toxin is to reduce the resistance of living things to other toxins.
It's just that the toxin grows too slowly and its incubation period is too long, so it hasn't shown any power in this regard before.
But once the incubation period is over and the toxin continues to grow to a certain extent and crosses a certain limit, it will suddenly begin to exert this effect.
It's like an iodine clock reaction, when it reaches a certain critical point, it suddenly changes color."
Wen Yan roughly understood it. It was probably about stacking buffs. Before that, it was garbage.
But as long as it is stacked to a certain extent, the quantitative change will lead to qualitative change, and it will become completely different in an instant.
"Just tell me what the outcome will be."
“The result is that, as long as it reaches a certain level, the undead may even be poisoned to death by the toxins that they could have ignored before.
For humans, it may be more serious.
According to the information I have observed, if this toxin in the body develops to an extremely high level.
Eating a tomato, the harmful toxins in it may cause poisoning for an ordinary person.
Or to put it another way, any other toxin could become lethal.
Even the smallest amount can be fatal.”
"How big is the gap?" Wen Yan took a breath.
"According to the results of my current experiments, the maximum difference may be a thousand times, but this should not be the highest. It is just the highest result I have obtained so far."
"I see, is there any solution?"
“We are still studying it.”
"Tell me if you need anything, send me a message and I'll send it to you."
Wen Yan thought of some suspected hepatitis cases he had heard of before, but they were all cured later.
Wen Yan didn't pay any attention to what happened afterwards. He thought this must be another experiment done by the necromancer.
It's completely useless to max out the lethality once, so later on max out the spread. As long as enough people spread the word, he will naturally become stronger, without a doubt.
But I didn't expect that it would develop into this in such a short time.
This guy is really a talent. The damage of the poison itself makes him easy to target.
If this guy suddenly follows Ai's route, weakening his defense and resistance, he will be much more difficult to deal with.
In addition, the lethality of this thing itself is very low, and there are no serious cases of illness, so it is indeed difficult to confirm and difficult to detect.
That is Bourne. As an undead, he didn't care about the problem of toxins at all. He stacked up desperately and discovered the problem as quickly as possible.
Before Wen Yan left, he used his own Yang energy to burn this layer of Bourne. He waited for more than ten minutes after he was sure that the prompt disappeared and the two activated special effects disappeared before he left.
After coming out, he sent a message directly to the director general, telling him about Bourne's discovery.
On the other side, the head of the headquarters had a gloomy face and immediately called up the relevant information.
So far, there are more than 300 patients in the Lieyang Department who have been confirmed to have contracted that type of hepatitis and have not yet been cured.
All of them had been cured before because the Lieyang Tribe responded quickly and took it very seriously from the beginning.
If it weren't for the fact that a necromancer was involved, this matter might not have required so many resources.
Current research is still ongoing, but has not yet reached the level of Born.
"I understand. Let your people continue their research. If you need anything, it will be considered as the responsibility of the Lieyang Department."
"it is good."
At the same time, on a mountain a few hundred meters away from Decheng Funeral Home, a puff of black smoke came out from a small piece of jade book that had been placed here in advance.
The Sharp-toothed Monster and three other strange-looking creatures walked out of the black smoke.
After the people of Taohua Village completed all this, they disappeared, and the jade book suddenly broke into pieces.
On another hill, Pei Tugou raised his eyelids, looked across, and curled his lips.
"That's it?"
