Chapter 70: Medusa(1/2)
While Luke was talking to Queen Christina and Princess Agatha about the succession to the throne, Qingkong was in the No. 7 Extraordinary Transformation Laboratory of the Empire's Institute of Extraordinary Biology, looking at an incubator in the middle of the laboratory.
The incubator is a cylindrical vessel made of glass, with a diameter of two meters and a height of three meters. The incubator is filled with light green nutrient solution. After strict temperature and magic field control, an artificial uterus environment is formed.
In the nutrient solution of the incubator, Xue Lai, who was completely naked, was curled up and suspended inside, like a gestating fetus.
The laboratory is surrounded by experimental equipment in operation, lights and magic beams are flashing continuously, and nearly twenty extraordinary biological researchers wearing white laboratory uniforms are busy working in their positions.
One item of data is collected.
From time to time, new culture fluid was injected into the incubator through the catheter, and the magic halo formed by the magic reaction flowed in the nutrient solution, eventually penetrating into Xue Lai's skin and into her body.
Xue Lai is a modified person of Medusa-like extraordinary creatures, a product of the military's extraordinary warrior experiment. However, she was not up to standard for the extraordinary warrior experiment, so she was sent to the northern battlefield like other defective products.
In the border contact battle between the Northern War and the Yate County Alliance, Xue Lai made many military exploits with his bravery, and his position and military rank continued to rise.
However, the positions of mid- to high-level officers in the original Northern Army were controlled by military nobles. It was extremely difficult for ordinary civilian officers to be promoted once they reached a certain level, not to mention that Xue Lai was just an extraordinary biological transformation person.
But being able to serve as the third officer of a war fortress shows Xue Lai's strength and potential.
Later, because she was dissatisfied with being suppressed and seriously injured her boss, she was sentenced to 45 years in prison. Later, she was recruited by Agatha into the Secret Service, starting the "legend" of the Black Mamba.
Xue Lai is very popular in the Anno game. There are several players who can resist a beautiful aunt who wears tight leather clothes and drives a steam motorcycle. Moreover, this aunt also has special skills to break the eucalyptus.
After players conquer Xue Lai, they will naturally try their best to improve Xue Lai's strength. Riding Xue Lai's motorcycle in and out of various high-level dungeons is very exciting.
Qingkong regained his uncontrollable reverie and admired the snow in the incubator again.
Xue Lai's training path is, of course, to continue to strengthen her existing Medusa bloodline.
Medusa is an extinct extraordinary creature. They have only females and no males. They have snake hair and a pair of eyes that can release petrification-like magic. Medusa has a very strong motion capture ability, and its physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people.
Medusa was most active during ancient wars. They were like mercenaries today. As long as they paid a corresponding price, they were willing to fight for any side. Later research generally believed that Medusa's intelligence or mind was defective because they
They seemed unaware that being mercenaries would lead them into the most brutal battlefields, and the facts proved the fate of the Medusas.
There is no information about Medusa in the later period of ancient wars.
To this day, Medusa has never been found alive again.
But there is no doubt about Medusa's combat effectiveness. After all, five ancient civilizations are willing to hire Medusa to fight for them.
The Imperial Institute of Paranormal Biology was able to carry out research related to Medusa because during an excavation of an ancient ruins, a section of active Medusa hair was found.
It was a snake head, perfectly sealed in a piece of crystal.
"Miss Qingkong..." An assistant walked to Qingkong with a form: "We have completed the collection of physical indicators of Medusa Experiment No. 16. The experimental subject is in good health and only has left
The Eye Medusa Child cannot be controlled and must be covered with an eye patch.
We have added Naben Polyethylene Compound Agent, Buffy Y Teller Red Agent, Intermediate Magic Energy Stabilizer, and Sky Tearstone Solution to the nutrient solution in batches according to the plan you gave. All auxiliary reagents have been used by the United States.
Dusha Experimental Subject No. 16 absorbed it and produced no adverse reactions."
Qingkong took the form, which recorded hundreds of Xue Lai's physical index data, followed by the data that Xue Lai had just cultivated. Decades later, the main values have not only not decreased, but have increased significantly.
"How many Medusa test subjects are still alive now?"
The assistant replied: "A total of 26 healthy embryos were cultured from the Medusa experimental body. Seven embryos died during pregnancy, ten were deformed, and four were executed if they did not meet the requirements during growth. In the end, only five experimental bodies were cultured.
, but during the training phase, three experimental subjects, including Experimental Subject No. 16, were classified as defective.
The 7th, 16th, and 21st Medusa Experimental Subjects were sent to the Northern Army, and the 3rd and 22nd Experimental Subjects stayed in the institute to continue undergoing experiments. Now the 7th Experimental Subject died in the battle with the Art County Alliance.
, Experimental Subject No. 21 died in a battle with the Barbarian Legion, and Experimental Subject No. 22 died in a test accident last year.
Experimental Subject No. 16 and Experimental Subject No. 3 are the existing living Medusa warrior experimental subjects."
The cultivation of extraordinary creatures is definitely not a humane experiment. The combination of the genes of extraordinary creatures and human embryos is destined to cultivate all kinds of strange things, and the success rate is also very low.
Snow is both unfortunate and lucky.
Qingkong asked again: "What is the condition of Experimental Subject No. 3?"
"Experimental Subject No. 3 possesses a controllable Medusa Child. Its physical strength and magic power far exceed that of Experimental Subject No. 16, and it also has very good command execution capabilities. After the angels descended on the palace, some extraordinary transformed warriors were
Recruited into the palace, Experimental Subject No. 3 was among those recruited.
I heard that the Empire's Special Weapons Development Bureau made a bow specially for Experimental Subject No. 3, which can shoot specially prepared alchemical magic arrows.
Miss Qingkong, do you need to transfer Experimental Subject No. 3 to assist in subsequent experiments?"
"No, I'm just asking casually. Protecting the safety of Her Majesty the Queen is the most important thing."
Qingkong asked Experimental Subject No. 3 to confirm whether the only remaining Medusa warrior had any accidents due to changes in the plot.
Still alive... not bad.
The assistant said: "Experimental Subject No. 3 feels very honored to be able to protect Her Royal Highness the Queen."
Qingkong asked: "How much active tissue is left in Medusa's severed hair?"
The assistant replied: "The active tissue we extracted from the broken hair of Medusa is very small. It has been used up during the cultivation of Medusa warriors. Now there is only an empty snake head left in the broken hair of Medusa."
Qingkong said: "Send the remaining snake head of Medusa to the hands of Experimental Subject No. 3, and order her to turn on the Medusa Child and look at the eyes on the snake's head for ten minutes every day until the eyes on the snake's head are petrified.
, immediately return it to the Extraordinary Creature Cultivation Research Institute.
After you get the snake head, keep it well, I will use it!"
The assistant saluted and said: "Yes, Miss Qingkong. After we get the smuggler's head, we will immediately send someone to report it to you."
Qingkong said: "I'm going to leave Shenglun City for a while. When I need it, I will come to you and ask for it. I have nothing to do with you here, so go out."
"Yes, Miss Qingkong."
In view of Qingkong's status in the empire and her own strength, no one at the Empire's Institute for the Cultivation of Extraordinary Creatures dared to disobey her. After receiving the order, all researchers in the laboratory immediately withdrew.
Soon the only thing left in the laboratory was the clear sky and the sleeping snow in the incubator. The surroundings were filled with the sound of machines running, and from time to time there was a sound similar to electricity.
Qingkong approached the incubator and pressed a button on it.
The rumbling sound continued, and after a burst of vibrations in the incubator, the nutrient solution inside turned out of the vortex and flowed away along the drain valve opened at the bottom.
The green water surface fell and drained away, and Xue Lai lay at the bottom of the incubator. Then a large amount of clean water washed down from above, washing away the nutrient solution on Xue Lai's body.
Xue Lai also woke up from the flush.
She stood up and faced the clear sky in a military stance.
The glass cover opened, Qingkong reached out and grabbed a bath towel and threw it on Xue Lai's body.
"Go to the locker room and put on your clothes. I have something to tell you."
"Yes, Miss Qingkong."
Qingkong's strong momentum and emotionless expression made Xue Lai dare not be as presumptuous as she was in front of Luke, and the tension made her show her military style.
Without waiting too long, Xue Lai changed her clothes and walked out of the dressing room next door.
He stood upright in front of the clear sky.
Qingkong said: "Give me your gun."
Xue Lai pulled out the pistol from the holster on his leg and handed it to Qingkong with both hands.
Qingkong took the gun, looked at it several times, and then threw it on the table next to him.
Bang!
Xue Lai couldn't help but worry about whether his favorite gun was broken. It was his second favorite thing after the Thunder BU953.
But her military qualities prevented her from running over to check her beloved gun.
Seeing Xue Lai's eyes that kept glancing towards the gun, Qingkong couldn't help but smile and said: "Things from more than ten years ago are no longer easy to use no matter how well maintained they are.
Try the 'venomous snake' I made specially for you, I guarantee you will like it."
Qingkong reached out and took out a black pistol from his pocket. The pistol had a strange shape. The gun was covered with a layer of fine scales that slowly wriggled. It made a slight "rustling" sound, really like a venomous snake turning into a gun.
Xue Lai grabbed the gun thrown by Qing Kong, and the snake scales instantly covered her hand, and the gun and hand became one. Xue Lai felt that the gun merged with herself, and her own magic power entered the inside of the gun without any resistance or loss.
In the magic circle.
"Miss Qingkong, is such a good gun really given to me?"
Qingkong threw a few more magazines to Xue: "'Venomous Snake' is specially made for you, no one else can use it. When there are no bullets, 'Venomous Snake' can consume magic power to shoot short-range venom. When you fire ordinary bullets, you can attach venom to the bullets."
Extremely poisonous; fires special alchemical bullets, which have effects such as destroying demons, piercing armor, paralyzing, and weakening."
After getting the "Venomous Snake" and hearing how powerful this gun was, Xue Lai immediately forgot all about his original gun and was thinking of finding a place to test the power of the "Venomous Snake".
At this time, Qingkong said again: "You still need to wait for a key mysterious prop to transform you, and your body also needs to do some pre-transformation and strengthening. It's just... I have something that I have to leave the empire for a while, so that you can be there in time.
After the transformation is completed, you need to come with me."
Xue Lai stopped playing with the "venomous snake", looked at Qingkong and asked: "Do you want me to leave the empire with you? I need to apply to the First Assistant of the Meteor Star. Only with the permission of the First Assistant, can I accept your deployment, Miss Qingkong."
"Your loyalty to the First Assistant of the Meteor Star is worthy of commendation." Qingkong took out a transfer order and handed it to Xue Lai: "This is the transfer order that the First Assistant gave you. During the period when you leave the empire with me, you must listen to me.
.”
Xue Lai put the gun back into the holster, and the snake scales automatically released from her hand.
Xue Lai took the order and checked it carefully. After confirming that it was correct, Xue Lai saluted Qing Kong: "Xue Lai accepted the order from the chief assistant of Yue Xing. From now on until the end of the mission, I will unconditionally execute Miss Qing Kong's order.
