Chapter 708: Scientific Research Results of the Crazy Dragon Disease Research Institute
After Fengying confirmed the style of the customized equipment, the person in charge of processing nodded, put away the manuscript paper and stood up, and began a series of preparations before starting work.
For example, the selection and pre-processing of materials, measurement and collection of body data, etc.
Isana also happily ran over to help. There were only a few hunters traveling with the brigade, and there were not many opportunities to watch the processing team building a complete set of armor. It was a good time for her to learn.
Gordon was not interested in these, so he continued to wander around the Isana.
The old businessman and Chef Meow are not here, and they may have gone to the village to set up a stall again, while the waitress Sophia and Aiden are doing very strange things.
She asked Aiden to imitate the movements of the Prison Wolf Dragon, and tried to copy the sketch of the Prison Wolf Dragon's fighting image.
It’s so weird, take another look.
“Yo, Brother Gordon is back.”
The greeting from behind made Gordon turn around, "Captain."
An old gentleman who always gives people a positive and optimistic impression, as if nothing in the world can defeat him, the smile on his face seems a little forced.
The two of them chatted and walked to the bow of the ship, which was relatively quiet.
“Mr. Leader, do you have any bad news for me?” Gordon suddenly asked.
“Ha” the old man smiled bitterly, “Did you see it?”
“You don’t usually say so many useless kind words.”
“Boy, do you understand this is paving the way?” The leader crossed his arms, “We can’t slap bad news on your face right from the start.”
Gordon smiled nonchalantly, "Let me guess, the guild has issued a hunting order?"
The leader was silent for two seconds and nodded: "Yes, a few days ago, Julius, Hayata, and Nadia approached the restricted area and conducted reconnaissance.
Although he did not face the target directly, from the roar, breath, and the astonishing concentration of the Mad Dragon Virus, it was basically certain that there was a monster far more powerful than the Black Erosion Dragon, living in the restricted area.
It should be the legendary Celestial Dragon. "
Speaking of this, the brigade leader paused for a moment, seeming a little ashamed to speak.
“Previously, the instructions conveyed to me by the guild’s senior management clearly mentioned that once it is confirmed that the viruses and spores spread by the source of the Sky Mountain plague are more active, they may spawn a large number of black dragons. There is no need to continue to report, and a crusade will be carried out immediately.
Professors from the Dragon Disease Research Institute have confirmed this not long ago, so the crusade has been put on the agenda, and will be scheduled after the anti-dragon stone is completed.
I’m very sorry for not informing you, Brother Gordon, in advance.”
Gordon waved his hands to show that he didn't care.
“If there’s anything I can tell you in advance, you weren’t in Sinard Village that time.”
Gordon said indifferently: "And when I saw the Guild sending Bi and Professor to Sinard Village, I knew that the crusade was basically a certainty.
The delay for several days was probably not just to wait for the professor and others to prepare the instruments. If the guild wanted to be determined to hunt a mysterious creature that was basically an ancient dragon species, the guild also needed to hold repeated meetings to demonstrate. "
The brigade leader lowered the brim of his hat and fell into silence.
Stroking the Isana's still brand-new helm, the old man sighed, "I didn't expect that the journey of pursuit with the goal of exploring the unknown would eventually evolve into this kind of endless hunting, and even get you involved. ."
Gordon was stunned and couldn't help but smile, "So this is the apology you were talking about."
The brigade leader said nothing.
It is true that high-ranking hunters will come into contact with ancient dragons from time to time under the instructions of the guild, but they are basically exploration and reconnaissance, and there are very few cases where direct combat is required to repel ancient dragons. Generally, they rely on defensive operations based on fortifications.
A mission with the real purpose of hunting an ancient dragon may not happen once every few years.
After all, with the power of the ancient dragon species, there is a high probability that high-ranking hunters, who are rare in the crusade, will suffer casualties. Once the hunt fails, the subsequent troubles will be endless.
From a certain perspective, the hunters at Silverside were forced to wade through muddy waters.
The water is full of piranhas.
However, Gordon didn't care. He patted the old man's muscular arm hard and said with a smile: "Just think of it as we asked for it."
In the following days, Gordon, Feng Ying and Aiden also joined in the battle to eliminate the infected monsters.
During this process, Gordon discovered that, as the professor and others said, the smaller the organism, the less likely it is to be infected with the rabies virus.
For example, animals such as spirit deer, mushroom pigs, and orcs such as wild Ellu and Melalu are rarely infected.
Birds, small insects, etc. are even more likely to be completely immune. This is definitely great news.
If insects and birds that are good at flying can also become carriers and spreaders of the Madosaurus virus, even within a few months, the entire Old World will fall.
Even so, professors and others still dare not relax their vigilance. After all, the virus may evolve.
The best way to resolve the crisis is to completely eliminate the source of the disease before the situation worsens.
A few days later, under the call of the professor, the hunters gathered again at the home of the great monk Zheng.
His home is the only one in the entire Sinard Village that is spacious enough to accommodate so many people at one time.
"Have you been a little too unrestrained lately? How many times have you reached the limit?" Gordon held Hayata's head and opened her eyelids with his fingers.
Purple-black bloodshot threads were infecting her sclera like a creeper, and the inhibitory medicine and black dragon armor were almost unable to suppress the mad dragon virus in her body.
Hayata's cheeks turned red.
Julius stood aside and said to Gordon expressionlessly: "It's not Hayata's problem. The activity of the Mad Dragon virus here in Sky Mountain is very high.
Not just her, the virus that we suppressed with medicine is also showing signs of reactivating. "
To prove the truth of what he said, Julius opened his eyelids at Gordon with a serious look on his face.
Gordon let go of Hayata's head, moved it up to Julius's face, squinted at the bloodshot eyes, and muttered, "It's true."
Nadia pulled away from her captain with a look of collapse, "Why do you think you are joining in the fun?"
“The suppressant wears off faster than I expected.”
The professor brought the topic back on track, "Actually, it's normal. Whether it's the inhibitory potion or the Black Eclipse Dragon armor, the basis of the active ingredients comes from the 'Black Eclipse Dragon'.
The source of the virus you have come into contact with recently is more mature and more virulent. There is even a high probability of secondary infection, so the inhibitory effect will naturally become worse.
However, there is no need to worry anymore. "
After saying that, before the hunters could speak, the professor waved and called Alva over.
Alva was holding a tray in his hand, with several gray-black "stones" on it that looked inconspicuous at first glance, but always exuded special energy.
".This is?"
“Well, this is the most important scientific research result since the establishment of the Crazy Dragon Disease Research Institute, and it is also the best way to fight against Crazy Dragon Disease—Anti-Dragon Stone. You can try the effect.”
Gordon grabbed a piece and threw it to Hayata.
Hayata hurriedly caught it, then suddenly paused.
The purple-black bloodshot eyes in her eyes were quickly dissipating.
Ps. In the game, "maximization" refers to a group of monsters that have overcome the rabid dragon virus and become stronger. I feel that this word is quite suitable to describe the enhanced state of the hunter after overcoming the rabid dragon disease, so it is easy to understand.
Also, the anti-dragon stone in 4g also has various effects. It seems to increase understanding when fighting extreme monsters. I won’t add these here. Let’s just treat it as the early stage of research and development, and those effects have not been developed yet—
