Laws of the Other World

"This is indeed a good solution, thank you very much. But now I want to see the Nibelung jellyfish more. What does this culprit look like?"

"Of course, please follow me." Dr. Ron nodded.

Zhou Qing got up, patted Li Qian on the shoulder and said, "You and Han Li are exhausted from the journey, so take a good rest!"

Zhou Qing was walking while discussing their research progress with Dr. Ron.

Dr. Ron suddenly stopped and said to Zhou Qing, "Professor Zhou, I have a heartfelt request."

"Please speak." Zhou Qing could see that it must be very important for him to ask someone like Dr. Ron to say "unfeeling".

"I noticed that your elder brother, Zhou Yu, has an Eidolon with him. I heard that this Eidolon grew up with him and only obeys him. We want to do some very simple research on this Eidolon. I hope you can help us convince Zhou Yu, we promise not to hurt this night spirit."

"Of course you can, but even if you want to hurt it, it's probably not possible. The potential of the night spirit is unlimited. So far, it seems that Mo Ye's ability is stronger than any A-level creature we know .”

"Thank you very much. We just heard that Dr. Carlos has researched some questions about the intelligence of night spirits. I heard that their IQ is much higher than that of humans and their learning ability is very strong. We are just curious whether it can adapt to human society."

"It's not whether it can adapt to human society, but whether human society can accept it."

Dr. Ron gave a rare smile: "That's true. The creatures of the Nibelung appear to be terrifying, but they are far simpler than humans."

When Zhou Qing followed Dr. Ron to the place where the Nibelung jellyfish specimens were stored, Zhou Qing was completely stunned.

This is a swimming pool-sized transparent storage, in which a huge Nibelungen jellyfish is soaked. It looks very quiet, without spinning, and without any signs of floating, just like falling asleep in the water.

This reminded Zhou Qing of the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty, as if a kiss could wake it up from its deep sleep.

Its translucent body reflects the light of this storage room, like a huge skirt, trying to cover the entire space.The walls of the room were stained a light transparent gold because of it.

"In order to preserve it, our base's supply of formalin for nearly a year has been exhausted," Dr. Ron said.

"My gosh...it's beautiful."

It is like an elf, like a masterpiece of a god, which makes people unable to move their eyes away.

Zhou Qing raised his head halfway, his open mouth couldn't close at all.

"The more beautiful the more dangerous, don't forget the virus it carries." Dr. Ron reminded with his arms behind his back.

"Yes... I was just wondering, why aren't there any creatures in the Nibelungen that are purely beautiful?"

"Because the pure beauty is too easy to be destroyed. To make the beauty last for a long time, it must be cruel." Dr. Ron replied.

"Who said it? Is it your summary?" Zhou Qingce turned his face and asked.

Dr. Ron shook his head and said: "This is not my summary, but the original words of my predecessor, Dr. Jiang. He is a leader in the field of virus research, but because a virus outbreak broke out in our human world, so he went back Yes. If he is still here, I bet he will be able to develop a vaccine for you in less than a day. Before he left, he left a lot of virus research materials about Nibelungen jellyfish. I will put them Call it out for your reference."

"Thank you very much." Zhou Qing raised his head and continued to look at the huge jellyfish, suddenly a little curiosity about Dr. Jiang surged in his heart.

At this time, the virus sampling personnel slowly moved the cover on the top of the huge storage vessel to a gap, and extended the sampler down.

Zhou Qing's heart suddenly became tense. He looked up and watched the sampler lightly tap on the jellyfish. The jellyfish suddenly trembled as if it had been electrocuted, and the light in the entire space twisted out one after another. Ripple comes.

"Don't worry, this is because the static electricity on the sampler reacted with the jellyfish." Dr. Ron explained.

"Of course, it is impossible for any creature to be alive after being soaked in formalin solution for such a long time." Zhou Qing smiled.

At this time, all the researchers and field team members in the dining room of the base were having meals. The side dishes were very simple, only bread and milk, but this was already very tasty for them.

Mo Ye was lying on the corner of the table, watching the food on Zhou Yu's plate intently, bending down from time to time to take a sniff with his nose.This was the first time he had smelled the smell of bread and butter, and it had to be said that although it was just bread, Base 2 treated them well.

"How long has it been since I smelled butter, and I ate two pieces of butter bread when I went to area 12 with you to bring the supply truck back last time." Wu Yun sighed.

Zhou Yu broke open the bread, pulled out the softest heart, and stretched it to the lips of Mo Ye who was lying next to him.

"Try it, this is at least better than green beans and carrots." A slight smile rose on Zhou Yu's lips.

Han Li said, "It's really rare, Zhou Yu, I almost never see you smile."

Mo Ye narrowed his eyes as if he was very happy. He first stuck out his tongue and licked the bread lightly, then shrunk his shoulders and narrowed his eyes as if to savor it.

"Do you like it? Eat it if you like it."

But Mo Ye stretched out his front paws, pushed the bread back to Zhou Yu's lips, raised his chin as if to say: I'm not hungry, I'll give you all to eat.

"Eh... is it really okay for you to show your affection like this?" Wu Yun expressed his dissatisfaction.

Mo Ye looked over and seemed to say: I'll beat you!

Zhou Yu raised his hand and rubbed Mo Ye's head.

And just like that, night fell.Virus research on the Nibelung jellyfish was also started.

Several researchers observe samples of the virus in the laboratory.

"Look, this virus is different from ordinary viruses. It is not spherical, crown-shaped, brick-shaped, or tadpole-shaped...it is smaller and more flexible than ordinary viruses..."

"And you can see that this part is a bit like influenza A virus, which enables it to undergo genetic recombination in a short period of time to evolve a new strain of disease, making its infectivity multiply. And this part is very similar to Ebola Or the virus characteristics of hemorrhagic fever such as dengue fever, but this virus is more rapid than Ebola... This is really the scariest virus I have ever encountered. I heard that Dr. Jiang is decoding the virus, and it is only one step away Antiviral drugs can be developed."

"If only he were here... maybe by now we'd be back at base with the antiviral."

After studying for most of the night, these researchers became sleepy.

"I'm so tired, Dr. Yao...I want to close my eyes and rest for 5 minutes."

"Okay, Dr. Shen, you go to bed first. I will continue to check the research records left by Dr. Jiang." Dr. Yao replied.

But within a minute, Dr. Yao, who was looking up the information, also became sleepy. He rubbed his eyes, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and fell asleep on the table.

I don't know when, a silver bell-like sound rang in my ear, connected together, as if it came from another world.

Dr. Yao opened his eyes, and he was surprised to see a woman in white sitting at the corner of his desk.

Her eyebrows and eyes are like ink stains in landscape paintings, and the smile on the corner of her lips made Dr. Yao's heart tremble.A head of long black hair fell down when she leaned down to Dr. Yao, brushing over Dr. Yao's cheek, with a touch of intoxicating gold.

"You... who are you? Are you a researcher at the base?" Dr. Yao asked innocently.

The woman kissed Dr. Yao's lips, and the wonderful feeling at that moment almost took Dr. Yao's breath away.

The flow of time stands still.

The next morning, Zhou Yu was woken up by Zhou Qing.

"Brother - brother - get up quickly! Something happened to Dr. Yao!"

Zhou Yu started up suddenly, he didn't expect that he slept so soundly.Because there were not enough rooms, he and Wu Yun and other field staff slept directly on the floor of the restaurant.

Regardless of Wu Yun's ridicule, Mo Ye must stick to Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu is pillowed on Mo Ye's body, and Mo Ye spreads his wings to cover Zhou Yu.The whole body was warmed by Mo Ye, which was probably the reason why Zhou Yu gave up his vigilance and fell asleep.

"What happened to Dr. Yao?"

"He...he didn't know what happened. He fell into the storage container of the Nibelungen jellyfish and drowned..." Zhou Qing showed a sad expression. Dr. Yao was an alumnus of the same high school as him.

"What? Drowning? Isn't he studying viruses? What are you doing at the place where the specimens are stored?" Zhou Yu felt that this was not as simple as drowning.

Wu Yun also got up, "Let's go! Go and have a look right away!"

Since Dr. Yao was escorted by Zhou Yu and Wu Yun, Dr. Ron could not prevent them from going to the scene to make sure.

When they saw the huge jellyfish specimen, they subconsciously exclaimed.

In the formalin solution, Dr. Yao was floating between the skirts of the jellyfish, with a peaceful expression on his face, as if he was just asleep.But every fool knows that he can't be alive.

Wu Yun swallowed, pointed to Dr. Yao and said, "He...how did he fall in?"

Dr. Ron sighed: "Please follow me. The monitoring recorded the whole process."

When everyone followed Dr. Ron to the monitoring room, Zhou Yu turned around subconsciously, and found that the hem of the jellyfish's skirt was slightly raised, as if it was slowly turning.Just because it is so huge, it all looks like the effect of light refraction.

But Mo Ye did not leave, but raised his head and watched silently.

"What's the matter, Mo Ye? Is there a problem?" Zhou Yu came to its side, and Mo Ye bit Zhou Yu's trouser leg, telling him to leave.

At this moment, a staff member in a diving suit sneaked in between the top covers and brought Dr. Yao's body out of the formalin.

He was placed in a sealed bag pending further autopsy.

Zhou Yu and Wu Yun came to the monitoring room and saw what happened last night.

Dr. Yao left the research room at three o'clock in the morning at the base and walked to the place where the Nibelung jellyfish were stored.He opened the lid of the storage vessel, holding the sampler in his hand, but when he lowered his head to take the sample, he suddenly fell into the formalin.

"My God..." Wu Yun covered his eyes.

Perhaps because Dr. Yao's fall broke the peace in the storage vessel, the Nibelung jellyfish soaked in the liquid slowly rotated and floated up. As Dr. Yao struggled, he was gradually enveloped by the huge jellyfish, Then he lost the strength to struggle and was gradually drowned.

Dr. Shen, who was in the same laboratory as Dr. Yao, felt extremely guilty. He covered his face and cried bitterly: "I didn't do it on purpose... I was just too tired and wanted to sleep for a while... I told him , I just want to sleep for 5 minutes! He must have found something in the research materials left by Dr. Jiang, so he went to take a sample to confirm! If I didn’t fall asleep, I could go with him! I can grab He won't let him fall!"

"It's not your fault. It's just an accident..." Dr. Ron pressed Dr. Shen's shoulder and comforted him.

Ron turned his face sideways and met Zhou Qing's eyes, and the two nodded in understanding.

Dr. Ron returned to the storage room of the Nibelung jellyfish and gave the order to conduct a biological scan of the specimen.

"Do you also think Dr. Yao's walking posture is strange?" Zhou Qing came to Dr. Ron's side and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, it doesn't look like you're extremely tired, but rather drunk." Dr. Ron stared coldly at the Nibelungen jellyfish specimen, "We can't use the creatures in the human world to measure the creatures here. Now I suspect that the jellyfish was just in a dormant state before, perhaps because the previous sampling touched its nerves and revived it. Maybe it used some way to lure Dr. Yao, or because Yao The Doctor is too close to its secret, so the jellyfish must kill Dr Yao before the virus can be decoded."

"Any ideas that originally sounded like fantasy are reasonable doubts here." Zhou Qing replied.

But after an overall biological scan, no signs of life were found on this Nibelung jellyfish, and its cell activity index was zero.

"So it's really just a specimen?" Zhou Qing asked uncertainly.

"I will send someone to monitor its biological activity 24 hours a day." Dr. Ron replied, this is the best solution so far.

Zhou Yu and Mo Ye stayed in the restaurant the whole time. Several researchers looked at Mo Ye from a distance, wanting to come and observe, but they dared not approach.Mo Ye deliberately raised his wings and showed a ferocious expression towards them. The expressions of these researchers changed instantly and they ran away immediately.

Wu Yun, who was also bored, laughed out loud.

Zhou Yu also rubbed Mo Ye's head: "You little villain, be careful that Dr. Ron won't give you food."

Mo Ye looked at Zhou Yu with wide eyes, and Zhou Yu knew that this little guy was pretending to be innocent again to win his sympathy.

"Don't look at me like that, it's useless."

Mo Ye leaned forward, and deliberately pressed the tip of his nose against the back of Zhou Yu's hand. Zhou Yu put his hand away, and Mo Ye chased after him, and quickly took Zhou Yu's finger in his mouth.

It wrapped the tip of its tongue around Zhou Yu's fingertips, but it didn't bite down in a hurry, but looked at Zhou Yu with its eyes, with an expression that it was very obedient and would not bite down without Zhou Yu's permission, but Zhou Yu knew very well that if he didn't let it eat enough, it would definitely stay by his side and make him unable to do anything.

At this time, the autopsy on Dr. Yao began.

There were 3 dissectors at the scene, and they all turned on the video recorders. When Dr. Yao cut open the abdominal cavity for the first time, countless light golden and transparent Nibelungen jellyfish flowed out from his abdomen.

The anatomist who performed the surgery jumped back in fright, and Dr. Yao's body seemed to have melted in an instant, and it was covered with blood and blood on the dissecting table, leaving only white bones.

"My God... what's going on here?"

At that moment, the jellyfish on the ground suddenly moved and clung to the bodies of the three dissectors one after another.

"Go away! Go away!" The dissector swung the scalpel and poked at the jellyfish, but couldn't penetrate their bodies.

Soon, the bodies of the three dissectors were covered by the jellyfish, and they fell to the ground, twitching and trying to grab the jellyfish with their hands, but their hands were also swallowed by the jellyfish.The body seemed to be melted away, these jellyfish squeezed into their flesh and blood, frantically absorbing nutrients.

"Why hasn't Dr. Yao's autopsy report arrived yet?" A few hours later, Dr. Ron turned on the communicator in the autopsy room very strangely. He called for a long time but no one answered.

He immediately connected to the monitoring of the dissection room, and found that all three dissection technicians had turned into a puddle of blood. The scene was horrible.

"This situation is like being infected by the Nibelungen jellyfish virus..." Zhou Qing's gaze sank, and the matter was more complicated than they imagined.

Dr. Ron immediately sealed off the dissection room and isolated all those who came into contact with the laboratory.

"Could it be that the Nibelung jellyfish virus was transmitted by Dr. Yao?" Dr. Ron pursed his lips and thought.

Zhou Qing made a suggestion: "Let's quickly check the whole process of the autopsy!"

Zhou Qing finally understood when they saw the group of palm-sized Nibelungen jellyfish killing the dissecters in the surveillance.

"The giant jellyfish was not dead, it was in a deep sleep as it appeared."

Ron gritted his teeth: "Maybe formalin is not suitable for its survival, so it directly stopped all its cell activity and waited for a suitable environment. We were all deceived by it! Since I took over this base, it has been Here it is! It not only fooled me, but also Dr. Jiang who has been studying this virus!"

Zhou Qing looked at the other party: "Now... Dr. Yao has become the nutrition for its offspring..."

Dr. Ron immediately issued an order: "Inject the neurotoxin into the storage dish where the Nibelung jellyfish are! Send someone to the dissection room to find the jellyfish it spawned! They must be hiding somewhere!"

A whole team entered the dissecting room. They turned on the biological scan to check every corner of the space.Once the Nibelung jellyfish is fully open and adsorbed on the ground, it is thin and transparent and difficult to detect.

They finally found a whole piece of transparent jellyfish attached to the bottom of the dissecting table.

"These little things are very cunning. They hide in the blind spot of sight." Zhou Qing realized that the Nibelung jellyfish may have high intelligence.

"Be careful... Be careful, don't be touched by them..." Dr. Ron looked at the monitor, nervously worried that if he was not careful, he would repeat the mistakes of Song Zhi's No. [-] base.

The jellyfish were finally recovered, and they were mercilessly put into a neurotoxin-soaked solution, and it didn't take long for them to melt.

But Ron immediately received another message, that is, when they originally designed the Nibelung jellyfish storage vessel, they did not design the pipeline for injecting the neurotoxin.After all, who would ever think of injecting poison into a specimen?

So the base sent an executive to carry the neurotoxin for manual injection, but unexpectedly, this executive came to the jellyfish specimen and looked at it obsessively on his back. No matter how his colleagues called him and asked him to perform the task, he would No response.

It was an expression almost of a pilgrim, as if his eyes had passed through the huge transparent jellyfish and went to another world.

Amid the repeated calls over and over again, he took out his own gun, pressed it against his head, and pulled the trigger with a smile full of expectation...

Hearing the gunshot on the monitor, Ron's shoulders trembled.

"This...what the hell is going on..."

It is not the first time that Zhou Qing, who checked the monitoring with him, learned of such a situation: "I guess this kind of jellyfish has the ability to affect human nerves to produce hallucinations. Do you remember how Dr. Yao entered the jellyfish sample room? You Said he looked like he was drunk. I guess he was under the influence of the jellyfish."

"Injecting neurotoxins into the system won't work, and now I have to send someone there, but no one dares to go there!" Ron pressed his temple with a headache.

"Shall we completely blow up that part of the area?" Zhou Qing proposed to ask.

"Blowing up just let the jellyfish out of the storage vessel, so much formalin solution is enough to be a buffer force for the explosion. It has only started to move now, and I think the formalin has suppressed it to a certain extent. It's like giving it freedom. And its ability to move is very strong, just look at the little jellyfish it breeds."
