Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 57 Monster: The Performer
"No." Xie Shen was stunned when he heard this and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Xiu glanced at Zhuge Fu beside him.

He calmly analyzed, "I heard Zhuge Fu say before: You have no resistance to the curse from the underground."

"Just like any other person."

"And now everyone is feeling unwell, except you."

"This means that 'Ruins Syndrome' is not a curse. It is most likely a phenomenon on the physical level."

As he spoke, Li Xiu suddenly opened the military backpack behind him and took out various tools and equipment from it.

He continued, "Since it is a physical phenomenon, we can quickly find the source of the symptoms by simply using the process of elimination."

"That makes some sense!" Xie Shen is not a researcher.

He couldn't keep up with Li Xiu's rhythm, so he just watched Li Xiu's performance quietly.

In the camp.

But Li Xiu pointed at a modified human in the crowd who had the most obvious symptoms.

He said, "Could you please come over and cooperate?"

"Ah? OK!"

The cyborg nodded upon hearing this and came to Li Xiu with difficulty.

With the help of Zhuge Fu, Li Xiu covered the surface of the modified human body with a metallic "raincoat".

He explained as he worked: "This is an isolation cover made of metal lead. It can shield a certain amount of radiation."

"If 'Ruin Syndrome' is caused by radiation, then this isolation cover should alleviate the symptoms."

Say it.

Li Xiu just stood there and waited patiently for a long time.

About ten minutes later, he said to the modified person wrapped in a 'raincoat': "Do you feel better?"

"I guess not?" The cyborg said uncertainly, "It's still the same as before, dizzy and wanting to vomit."

——The symptoms have not been alleviated, which means they are not caused by radiation.

Li Xiu didn't say anything.

He then attached several metal wires to the surface of the modified man's raincoat.

"I know this."

After Xie Shen looked at it, he said, "If I'm not mistaken, you want to make a simple version of the 'Faraday cage', right?"

"Yes." Li Xiu responded, "And my metal wire is made of special material, which can almost shield all the effects of electric fields on people."

After saying this, Li Xiu waited patiently for a long time again.

More than ten minutes passed like this. Li Xiu said to the cyborg, "How is it? Do you feel better this time?"

"It's still the same." The cyborg said weakly, "It feels uncomfortable, and there is no change at all."

——In this way, the possibility of electric field is also ruled out.

Li Xiu is very patient.

He was like a precision machine, conducting various tests meticulously.

He was busy like this for a full five hours, and at 5 a.m. the next day, Li Xiu finally came to a conclusion.

He concluded: "If nothing unexpected happens, we should be affected by infrasound, which is why we have all kinds of adverse reactions: such as dizziness, nausea, and even deafness and mental disorders in severe cases - infrasound can indeed cause these harms to humans."

Li Xiu is not a monk.

Naturally, infrasound will also affect him.

Not long after finding the source of the symptoms, he finally couldn't hold on any longer.

His body swayed, and after retching for a while, he fell straight to the ground.

But falling to the ground is falling to the ground. Li Xiu kept an expressionless face from beginning to end, as if he felt no pain.

This made Xie Shen unable to help but ask him: "By the way, do you really not feel any pain?"

——Although Xie Shen and Li Xiu had been together in the Tower Prison for nearly a year, he had never tortured Li Xiu.

Hence this question.

Li Xiu was lying on the ground, expressionless, and said, "Have you forgotten? Before, I cut my arm in front of you, and then a small amount of black mist was produced, so of course I could feel the pain, otherwise where would the black mist come from?"

"Then you are really tolerant." Xie Shen showed a strange expression and looked at Li Xiu meaningfully.

Although he did not continue to ask, he did not easily believe what Li Xiu said.

But Li Xiuyan got back to the point and said, "If it is infrasound, I have a device to detect infrasound, but it takes up too much space, so I don't have it with me. I can only wait until daybreak and have the people in the space station airdrop it to the wilderness."

"What a coincidence." Upon hearing what Li Xiu said, Zhuge Fu hurriedly took out an instrument that looked like a radar from the backpack behind him.

Xie Shen saw it and said happily: "Isn't this the 'Infrasonic Arrestor'? Have you fixed it?"

"It's been fixed a long time ago." Zhuge Fu said with a smile, "Didn't you break it with your kick before? Then I took it to the space station."

"I just happened to put it in my bag when I came to the surface this time. I didn't expect it would come in handy."

Zhuge Fu has studied the underground curse for nearly a hundred years.

The underground curse is caused by a kind of infrasound.

So it is no exaggeration to say that when it comes to studying infrasound, Zhuge Fu ranks second, and no one in the entire space station dares to compete with him for the first place.

Under the night.

Zhuge Fu held the infrasound arrester and followed the source of the infrasound, and soon tracked it all the way to the city streets.

Following behind him were Li Xiu, Xie Shen and Ma Ge.

With the help of moonlight, everyone saw a giant bone monster wandering aimlessly on the street.

——The infrasonic arrester in Zhuge Fu’s hand was aimed right at the giant bone monster.

This means that the monster is the source of the infrasound.
"Brain, can you hear me?"

on the street.

Li Xiu reminded his brain through the headset: "Please change the system file."

"Row."

The brain quickly responded: "You tell me, and I'll change it."

Li Xiu said slowly: "Unknown life form No. 006, formerly known as Giant Bone Monster, now renamed 'Musician'."

"You don't need to make any changes to the performer's details."

"Just make an addition to the ability column: the performer can release infrasound waves, which will continue to cause damage to the human body."

"Then add a note: The method of release is currently unknown!"

"Received, I have completed the changes." The brain asked Li Xiu: "What should we do? Should we just leave it blank?"

How to deal with it?
Li Xiu looked thoughtful.

He seemed to be talking to himself, but also to be explaining to Xie Shen and the others: "Infrasound waves can resonate with human organs, thus causing harm to the body."

"Compared to normal sound waves, infrasound waves travel farther and have stronger penetration power."

"So unless we can create a complete vacuum environment."

"Otherwise, ordinary soundproofing equipment, such as soundproofing cotton, will not have any effect at all."

"So," Li Xiu said, "the most effective way to deal with infrasound is to directly eliminate the source of the sound."

He turned around and said, "Xie Shen, Mag, go back to the camp and call for help. Kill all the nearby 'musicians'!"
