Chapter 708 Research Results of the Crazy Dragon Disease Research Institute
After Feng Ying 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. For her, it was a good opportunity to learn.
Gordon was not interested in these, so he continued to wander around the Isana.
The old businessman and Chef Meow were not here, and they were probably setting up stalls in the village again. The waitress Sophia was doing something strange with Aiden.
She asked Aiden to imitate the movements of the Prison Wolf Dragon, and tried to copy the sketch of the Prison Wolf Dragon fighting image.
So weird, take another look.
"Hey, Brother Gordon is back."
The greeting from behind made Gordon turn around, "Captain."
The old gentleman who always gives people a positive and optimistic impression, as if nothing in the world can defeat him, has a slightly forced smile on his face.
The two of them chatted and walked to the bow of the ship together, which was relatively quiet.
"Mr. Leader, do you have any bad news to tell 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 that this is foreshadowing?" 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 a monster far more powerful than the Black Eclipse Dragon was living in the restricted area.
It should be the legendary Celestial Dragon. "
Having said 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 epidemic 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.
The 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 guys in advance, Gordon."
Gordon waved his hand to show that he didn't care.
"If there is anything I can tell you in advance, you were not in Sinard Village that time."
Gordon said nonchalantly: "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 equipment. If they 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. Come in."
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.
If it weren't for the Dragon Celestial Disease spread by the Sky Dragon, which spawned countless black dragons, the guild would most likely choose to deal with it conservatively.
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 the battle to eliminate the infected monsters.
During this process, Gordon discovered that, as the professors and others said, the smaller the creature, the less likely it is to be infected with the Madosaurus virus.
For example, spirits deer, mushroom pigs, and orcs such as wild Ellu and Melalu are rarely infected.
Birds, small insects, etc. are even completely immune, which 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, Professor and others still dare not let down their guard, 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 house was the only one in the entire Sinard Village that was spacious enough to accommodate so many people at one time.
"Have you been letting yourself go too much lately? How many times have you activated the Extreme Mode?" Gordon held Hayata's head and used his fingers to pry open her eyelids.
Purple-black blood threads were infecting her sclera like creepers. The suppression potion and the Black Dragon armor were almost unable to suppress the Mad Dragon virus in her body.
Hayata's cheeks flushed red.
Julius stood aside and said to Gordon expressionlessly: "It's not Hayata's problem. The Mad Dragon virus in Sky Mountain is very active.
Not only her, but the virus suppressed by the potion in our bodies also showed signs of reactivation."
In order to prove the truth of what he said, Julius pulled open his eyelids in front of Gordon with a serious face.
Gordon let go of Hayata's head, leaned close to Julius' face, squinted at the bloodshot in the latter's eyes, and muttered, "Really"
Nadia pulled away her captain with a look of collapse, "Why are you joining in the fun?"
"The inhibitor potion is losing its effect faster than I expected."
The professor brought the topic back on track, "Actually, it's normal. Whether it's the inhibitor 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 been exposed to recently is 'more mature' and more toxic. There is even a high probability of secondary infection. It is natural that the inhibitory effect has deteriorated.
But don't worry anymore."
After speaking, without waiting for the hunters to speak, the professor waved his hand and called Alva over.
Alva held a tray in his hand, on which were placed several gray-black "stones" that looked inconspicuous at first glance, but always exuded special energy.
".This is it?"
"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 means to fight Crazy Dragon Disease - Anti-Dragon Stone. You can try the effect."
Gordon grabbed a piece and threw it to Hayata.
After Hayata caught it in a hurry, her movements suddenly paused.
The purple-black bloodshot in her eyes was rapidly dissipating.
Ps. In the game, "extreme" refers to a group of monsters that have overcome the Crazy Dragon Virus and become stronger. I feel that this word is also suitable to describe the enhanced state of hunters after overcoming Crazy Dragon Disease, which is easy to understand.
Also, the Anti-Dragon Stone in 4g has various effects, such as adding critical hits to extreme monsters, etc. I won't add these here, just treat it as the early stage of research and development, and those effects have not been developed yet-
