Chapter 80: The Way of Corpse

"Creaky! Creaky!" A sound that made one's teeth ache sounded, and the burly body of the ogre walked down the wooden stairs to the basement. The flashlight on the helmet illuminated the entire corridor as bright as day.

The wooden doors, windows and seats in the church had long been rotten, but this staircase could actually withstand the ogre's weight of more than 200 kilograms, which was quite strange!

Levi controlled the ogre's body and looked down. Although the four or five centimeters thick wooden stairs under his feet looked a little old, they were definitely no more than 20 years old, and there was not much dust on the stairs.

It seemed that this staircase had been updated and was often maintained and cleaned!

Going down the stairs, the more he went down, the more Levi could clearly smell the rotten smell of corpses through the ogre's nose.

After walking up seventy-six steps, a basement built more than 20 meters underground, full of ancient style, and at first glance like an ancient tomb, suddenly appeared.

The entrance to the basement is an arched door about three meters high and two meters wide, built with gray-white stone bricks, and behind the entrance is a stone road more than 20 meters long.

The ogre walked into the entrance of the basement, and saw that the walls on both sides of the stone road, including the top of his head, were actually inlaid with human corpses, which was quite terrifying!

These corpses seemed to have undergone some special treatment. Although they were not soaked in preservatives, none of them showed signs of decay. At first glance, they looked like lifelike sculptures!

Only the flat wounds and fine stitches proved that these were human corpses!

"Hmm?" When touching and pressing the abdomen of the corpse, the ogre frowned slightly, and his sharp nails, like a knife, scratched across the smooth and white belly of the other party, and immediately cut it open, revealing the empty abdominal cavity of the female corpse, and all its internal organs were taken out!

Levi controlled the ogre to walk to the corpses next to him, and also cut open the abdomen of the corpses. Sure enough, the internal organs of the corpses were scraped clean!

"Is it for consumption?" Levi guessed in his heart.

Controlling the ogre to scan around,

The most terrifying thing is that all the human corpses have expressions of fear on their faces, without exception!

But this terrifying scene that can scare people is naturally useless to Levi. He can even sense a trace of greed in the ogre's heart for the corpses in front of him!

Controlling the ogre to continue walking inside, he soon passed the corpse aisle and revealed a rather large basement.

"Huh? What is this?" And in this basement, it is not the purgatory on earth full of terrifying torture instruments and slaughterhouses that Levi imagined, but a laboratory full of various bottles, jars, and experimental instruments!

It's just that some of these experimental instruments in front of him are even made of silver, which looks like antiques full of age!

Standing at the stairs, Levi searched the images of the instruments passed by the ogre through the bracelet and found that the materials and appearance of these experimental instruments are actually classic styles of the Byzantine era more than 1,500 years ago!

Levi flipped through the search content about these experimental instruments on the bracelet and found that there were many experimental instruments in it.

"Alchemist?" Levi clicked on this entry and found that in the era when radiation energy fell to the bottom for thousands of years, most of the extraordinary people died, and the major forces retreated from the world, there were still a small number of extraordinary people who were not willing to wait for death, but actively sought a way out through various methods.

Some of the extraordinary people searched for strange objects scattered all over the place, and squeezed and extracted the pure radiation energy contained in the strange objects through various means, even at the cost of destroying the strange objects, to ensure their own needs while even improving!

The methods of these extraordinary people were seen by ordinary people and felt magical, so they were called alchemists.

Although this method was a bit wasteful, many individuals or hidden forces were secretly using this method when they really couldn't survive, so that the extraordinary people would not die due to the backflow of radiation energy. Therefore, apart from causing a fight for strange objects, it did not cause much trouble.

But there are only so many strange objects, and because of the low radiation energy, almost no new strange objects are born, so the number of strange objects is getting smaller and smaller.

Later, a supernatural being named Merlin from the Extreme Doctrine completely pushed the profession of alchemist into the abyss!

When the number of strange objects became smaller and smaller, this supernatural being named Merlin suddenly had an idea that there was radiation energy in strange objects, which could be extracted and absorbed and refined. Then, wouldn’t other supernatural beings also have radiation energy in their bodies?

Can the radiation energy in the bodies of supernatural beings be extracted? Can this radiation energy be absorbed again? Will there be side effects after absorption?

As soon as this idea came up, Merlin started the experiment directly!

After that, Merlin secretly captured supernatural beings for experiments, and the experiments went quite smoothly. Merlin not only extracted radiation energy from other supernatural beings that far exceeded ordinary strange objects!

And he was shocked to find that these radiation energies extracted from the human body were not only easier to absorb, but also could greatly enhance his own strength and even develop some strange abilities!

After making this discovery, Merlin immediately began his hunt, and soon he broke through from a level 2 life form to a level 3 life form!

The sudden disappearance of extraordinary people immediately aroused the vigilance of many forces, especially Merlin. Other extraordinary people could only barely survive, but he could improve rapidly, especially in the environment at that time, level 3 life forms were almost the top existence!

This abnormal situation naturally attracted investigations from many forces, and even the most famous Extreme Turks at that time were resisted by many forces!

The final result is self-evident. Merlin's outrageous experiment was completely exposed. In order to calm the public anger, the Extreme Turks could only clean up the sect, and even set off a trend of cleaning up alchemists!
