Extraordinary Sailing

Broken Star Sea, Naika Island Crystal Cave.

The main body of the cave is located 300 meters deep underground, and the height of the layers inside is also close to 300 meters.

The horizontal depth reaches several kilometers, the terrain is complex and the environment is harsh, and there are huge glowing crystal pillars everywhere. Even many places are covered with sharp white crystal clusters, and there is no place to step down.

However, the huge crystals that are priceless to others, including the abundant reserves of silver and lead mines in the nearby mines, are not cared about at all.

Only the running water in the cave full of countless germs is the real treasure in the heart of the cave owner!

tick tock

The deepest part of the Crystal Cave is nearly 1,000 meters deep, and there is an active lava belt.

The surging heat will evaporate the water in the cave at any time, and then re-condense into a liquid state and slowly drip down at the relatively cool place on the top of the cave.

And who would have imagined that with the gradual growth and formation of this crystal mine, the water here has actually circulated for half a million years.

And it is precisely because of the existence of these water droplets that the astonishing giant crystal pillars with a length of more than ten meters have been created, and this hotbed of germs has also been created!

However, not all places in the cave are extremely harsh.

On the upper floor of the crystal cave with a layered structure, in a grotto that is well ventilated to the outside world and does not have many crystal clusters growing. There are stone desks, experimental instruments, bookshelves, cabinets, and sample libraries that have been fully anti-corrosion treated.

A protective witchcraft has been specially applied here to ensure that the air full of germs outside will not interact with this place. Because even for the "Poison Epidemiology School" who specializes in various germs, the impact of unpredictable bacterial contamination on the experiment is also disastrous.

at this time.

The "Mushroom Man" stationed on Naika Island is making a sample of bacteria here. The raw materials include: fungal conidia, sand, glass test tubes, desiccant

The purpose is to ensure that the bacteria can stay in a dormant state for a long time without dying, growing, polluting, reducing or losing their excellent properties, and then prolonging the use time.

Such tiny microbes are known to be all too prone to genetic variation.

Normally, the longest preservation method for strains is the "freeze-drying preservation method", in which the bacterial liquid and skimmed milk powder are mixed, freeze-dried and vacuum-dried, and stored in a dry environment at -80°C.

Different strains will also have the most suitable preservation methods for themselves, and there are many kinds of them.

But in this era when experimental medicine has just started, it is far from that condition.

The "Poison Epidemic School" now generally adopts a relatively simple "dry sand preservation method", as long as it is stored below 4°C, but this method is not suitable for all strains.

Therefore, although the work of preserving samples has already begun since the discovery of this place, the natural treasure house in the crystal cave below the laboratory is still very precious to them.

rustle.

In front of the "fungus man" who looks like a giant mushroom, it seems to be grasped by an invisible hand, and various materials automatically float up, like clouds and clouds, and within a few breaths, a food that can be prepared Save samples for 18-20 years.

[Talent Spell·Power Tentacle]

After the "Fungal Man" is ahead of everyone in the school and completes the transformation of himself, every fungal cell is his neuron, his brain, and his body.

This also gave him extremely powerful and unpredictable spiritual power. With the help of the spore cloud that filled the cave and the entire island outside, he could easily see everything in this space.

Sudden.

The sample stagnated in the air, and the face of the "Fungion Man", which had eyes and a mouth but had no practical use, changed slightly, showing the sudden turmoil in his heart.

"Someone is here, it's not the three of them, and it's not that the crow is a complete stranger!"

As if remembering something, "Fungal Man" turned around quickly.

When I came to a stone cabinet, I opened it to see that even that vain face changed color instantly:

"The symbiotic strains of 'Living Corpse' and 'Poisonous Wolf' are dead! Only the 'Insect Man' acting alone is fine.

who is it? Who killed them who were performing their mission? ! "

Although the expression on that face was simple, the extreme emotional fluctuations caused golden sparks of mind to flicker around his body, and even the glass containers on the test bench shattered piece by piece.

Click! Click!

The death of a companion is nothing in itself, but a series of problems such as the reduction of the power of the school, the failure of the action plan, and the delay in the establishment of the witchcraft system caused by it are unbearable for him.

After all, he was the one who first received the knowledge bestowed by the evil alchemist and proposed to establish the "Poison Epidemic School". A group of mature senior wizards who relied on them as his team lost two-thirds at once, which would definitely delay his promotion path greatly.

Even as a master of psychic power, "Fungal Man" can barely control his emotions.

Putting the important samples and materials in the laboratory into the "magic bag" hidden in his body, his body floated up under the influence of spiritual power, and flew angrily towards the exit of the cave.

Whoosh—

And at this moment, the "guests" he had just sensed in [Spore Cloud Telepathy] had arrived at the door of the crystal cave.

call out! call out! call out!

Following a group of seagulls who were immune to physical damage after being transformed into spiritual bodies, four figures wearing beak masks and leather jackets jumped down one after another along the 300-meter-long winding tunnel at the entrance of the cave.

This is not a group of "crowmen" from the kingdom's secret department, but Ai Wen and his party.

For Aiwen, who has the knowledge of activated aura and potion science, there is no difficulty in making this beak mask.

Using wood to form a mask with crystal eyes, and filling the beak-shaped filter with charcoal and herbs that can detoxify and sterilize bacteria, the quality of the final product is much better than those equipped by the Arakkoa troops.

Aiwen, who has the corresponding geographical knowledge in his head, understands that the biggest problem he will face may be the dirty, hot and germ-filled air in the crystal cave, and he has already prepared in advance.

Before.

After finding this place named Naika Island on the nautical chart, Aiwen sent seagulls to conduct high-altitude reconnaissance immediately.

And at this time, he was very fortunate that he had made that Thunderbird into an activated animal skin.

You must know that when the Silver War was launched to compete for the Potosí Islands, it took a full two months for the quasi-legendary battleship "Guardian of the Guards" to support the Golden Sea from the Vice-King of New Cyrus.

If you drive the "Storm Horn" around Cape Floyd, the southernmost point of the New World, and go around the coastline of the mainland a little bit.

Although the time it takes will definitely be much shorter than the "Guardian of the Guards", the daylily is completely cold, and even if you get the original strain and rush back to the colony, you can only face a tragic situation of corpses everywhere.

And with a flight speed of 900 km/h, it only took Aiwen six hours to fly from the south end of Liudalian Lake to Naika Island on the west side of the Balboa Isthmus, in the Sea of ​​Broken Stars!

They were in a hurry, but they didn't realize at all that the distance between themselves and the god of death was only 80 kilometers.

When crossing the entire new continent, the seagulls in the sky never stopped monitoring the island for a moment, and easily found the entrance of the crystal mine.

When the previous samples of [Super Cyst Fungus] arrived in Aiwen's hands, it was unknown how many generations they had been cultivated and how many hosts they had experienced. When Milan used them for divination, he got nothing at all.

But now, based on the information obtained from the two "poisoners", they have determined that the original strain of [cyst fungus] is deep in this crystal cave!

only.

Because they were afraid of alarming the enemy, they did not send seagulls to investigate, so they did not find the traces of the remaining two of the four who left the "Vesalian School" at the beginning: Perce Lovell and Heywood Clyde.

However, from the "living corpse" and "poisonous wolf", Ivan realized that the information given by Dr. Taylor was too outdated.

After combining the knowledge of many schools of thought, and then integrating the "Introduction to Pathogens" into their own system, they have further developed a unique witchcraft system.

Especially in the opponent's home game, their strength must not be underestimated.

However, after entering the inside of the crystal cave, before the seabirds under Aiwen's command had completely dispersed to search for traces of the enemy and the original strain.

Suddenly.

"Ha! Two gentlemen and two ladies, a total of four malicious guests, are you the one who killed the 'living corpse' and the 'poisonous wolf'?"

It seemed that he used honorific words to these villains with the habit of a classical gentleman, but a voice that clearly contained infinite anger rose from the bottom of the four people's hearts.

The loss of human eyes, ears, and nose allows the "fungus man" to see more of the essence of things, whether they wear a gas mask or not.

And starting from his unique senses, he made a judgment on the nature of the power possessed by Aiwen and his party. Aiwen is fiery and domineering, Milan is distant and mysterious, Olivia is dazzling, and Apusuya is wild and unruly.

And the truth of the matter is also easy to deduce. The two members were murdered shortly after the villain came to the door. If there is no connection between them, he would not believe it if they were killed.

It has even been guessed that this is very likely to be the evil result of serving Ms. Crow, but they did not expect it to come so soon. The second phase of the plan has only just begun.

Hearing the voice, the four of them looked back.

A mushroom, which is not much different from the outside world except for its size, is standing quietly behind him and his party.

There is a gorgeous red and yellow canopy on top of the white body, which is highly poisonous at first glance!

And the moment they turned their heads, the giant mushroom had already attacked them first.

puff--

At the moment when the fleshy canopy expanded and contracted, a large cloud of red spores was sprayed out, and immediately turned into a large flame when it encountered the air.

【Witchcraft · Flame Spores】

The already dirty air in the crystal cave seemed to be completely burned, and even the surface of the crystal with a melting point of 1700°C began to melt.

"Get out of the way!"

I didn't expect that in this information and intelligence battle, it was my side who was at a disadvantage.

The unexpected attack came, forcing the four people who had just entered the cave to scatter and dodge before they had time to think about the meaning of his words.

At the same time, another dark green poisonous cloud spread rapidly in the cave.

【Witchcraft · Deadly Poison Cloud】

The battle has only just begun, and it has already reached its climax.
