Chapter 609 Unknown Territory

The opened eyes are particularly scary, because they have burst open, and there are blood holes on the left and right.

If it were an ordinary corpse, it would definitely be swollen, but the two eyeballs were still full. However, Duke can conclude that this thing is definitely the original, but its physical strength far surpasses that of a human in every aspect.

The reason why this kind of judgment can be made is because the cortex on both sides of the giant's nose, due to long-term dehydration, suddenly entered a low temperature state, showing extremely slight atrophy.

If it is made of materials, how is this possible?

And Bernard, who came in a hurry, also corroborated this guess. He observed the blood sample extracted just now and came to a conclusion——

The structure is roughly similar to that of humans.

As for the specific differences, Duke didn't have time to listen to it for the time being. He asked Bernard to write a detailed report afterwards, preferably with personal opinions.

"After the death of human beings, the metabolism will naturally disappear, the blood will condense and rot, and the skin will also appear red, and then it will turn into a lead color."

"When it reaches a very long time, the color will continue to deepen, gradually showing a dark brown, until it is dark black."

Duke pinched the corpse's cheek, and he worked hard alone. The process was too boring, and it was not conducive to brainstorming.

"It's a little lead gray." Lu Li said his observations, and then added, "It's been eight days since the assassination happened."

"Um."

Duke nodded, without being too condescending, and directly concluded: "If the corpse in front of us is an ordinary corpse, it should be very black now. No matter how good the preservation conditions are, it must at least be dark brown."

"So, this giant is an extraordinary existence, infinitely close to human beings." Pan Ming expressed the conjectures in everyone's minds, "Because of this, his various reactions after death, as well as skin tissue and blood substances, are all different. It is highly similar to humans, but the rate of corruption is much slower."

"Long-lived, strong, a human being who has gone further on the road of evolution."

As he said that, Duke changed his position and came to the monster's chest. There was a penetrating wound. Through the hole about the size of a fist, the internal gears could be seen, covered with frost.

For a while, Duke was in a tangle.

It's just such a small area, and the working principle cannot be seen at all. The visible area must be enlarged, but once this is done, the giant's body surface will have to be destroyed.

"Cut it open, so you can get more, flesh and blood, bones, deep skin, nerve tissue..."

Scientists are always so entangled after discovering the only precious sample, but Lu Li is different. He needs clues, and if he wants to get clues, he has to destroy them and explore the unknown things hidden deeper.

In order to solve the case as soon as possible, it is not bad to do so.

"Okay, I'll slowly cut it open, hoping to repair it afterwards like assembling a mech."

Duke let out a foul breath. He didn't want to destroy the research materials, but he had to do so. He could only slow down a little within his ability.

In the next few minutes, Duke took out some samples from tiny areas such as the giant's hair, nasal cavity, ears, and nails.

Then, dissecting along the penetrating wound on the chest, the sharp scalpel became more and more blunt until it was completely useless, and then barely cut open a five centimeter square area, during which no bone was touched at all.

This has nothing to do with strength or technique, it's just that the materials are not enough, so in desperation, Lu Li contributed the Sword of Sadhu disguised as a cane.

"Giants are not a dark race, so there is no need to worry about burning damage and destroying their research value."

In Lu Li's whisper, Duke jumped up. The research body was too big and used a long sword as a scalpel. He could only squat on the mortuary cabinet with his face facing the incision.

In this way, Bernard saw a somewhat subversive scene:

A skilled forensic doctor, who called himself an investigator, was holding a long sword suspected of being a legendary weapon, standing on top of a giant corpse, with his butt facing the face of the deceased, and was performing an autopsy in an extremely indecent posture.

The Sword of Sadhu, also known as the Sword of Giants, because its first owner was a patient with gigantism, and it was later given to Lu Li by the demon hunter Abraham. It is a cause and effect.

Lu Li thought wildly. After all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and his understanding of mechanics is really limited, so it's better to leave it to professionals.

And Duke couldn't care less, he was obsessed with the fine structure displayed in the giant's body.

Gears, rubies, thin wires, to use an easy-to-understand analogy, just like a mechanical watch, showing the beauty of precision structure.

Of course, the watch worn on the wrist is not as big as half a palm, and it cannot be compared with the giant in front of him. Although it has not been completely cut open, from the toes to the throat, it should be all mechanical parts.

The only exception is the larynx and above.

Because, when Duke cut the throat, he found that there was no gear here. Roughly speaking, the vocal structure of the giant is no different from that of a normal human.

"Old Lu, I remember you once said that he could talk when he was alive?"

"That's right, singing songs insulting the queen sounds very blunt, and there are only a few sentences."

Lu Li thought about that late at night, a giant who spoke not-so-fluent English ran wildly through the streets, declaring that he was going to stab Queen Victoria in the eye and send her to see the old Hades.

Then...it became what it is now.

There is not much intact skin all over the body, and it is pitted and uneven by the gunshots, like porcelain.

Of course, the bullets hardly penetrated the giant's flesh, and even if a few hit the same area in a short period of time, the real fatal wound came from the cardinal, who punished the offender.

"The body surface and bone structure are original, not assembled. The size of the left and right arms is inconsistent because of deformities, and the inside was hollowed out by people, and various gears and gems were installed."

"Judging from the performance that night, the giant's intelligence is extremely low, and his mind only thinks of killing the queen. This is the order given to him by the mastermind behind the scenes."

Duke analyzed on his own, but many things couldn't be explained, such as——

How the maker hollowed out the giant and filled it with various parts.

After checking for so long, he didn't find any cuts made by anyone other than himself, let alone sutures.

Do giants grow like this?

With the development of human beings, various organs will also develop to adapt to this change, but what about mechanical parts.

Also, what is the power provided by?

Even if it is a mechanical watch, it needs to be wound, or the user wears it and exercises before it can move.

Is it really steam?

But half of the body was dissected, and no similar structure was found.

After thinking about it, doubts still exist, and more and more, Duke is going to lift the corpse box, push it into the cabinet along the slide rails, and discuss it with everyone.

Thinking collision, maybe there will be something to gain.
