Chapter 56: Chapter 56, Second-level Corpse Core _i
Judging from the message from the recorder.
The Leukoencephalopathy is the ‘corpse core’ in the brains of mutated creatures, and it is known to improve human physique.
In other words, there exists a group people in this world, whose physical properties exceed the normal standards.
People in this world have entered a phase of breaking the shackles to change the physical constitution.
The most important part concerns the second-level Leukoencephalopathy; it has the potential to grant special abilities.
Yesterday, when I killed the giant zombie, I got such a second-level corpse core.
Does it have any special effects besides increasing my physique?
Wu Heng continued to listen.
The recorder kept talking about the corpse core, as well as some methods for taking it.
The corpse core has currently been divided into three levels.
Normal corpse core, the second kind contains some blood strands, and the third type of corpse core, but no one has been able to successfully absorb and resist the virus till now.
The higher the level of the corpse core, the higher the risk of infection.
The recorder recommended that ordinary people, if they can get the Leukoencephalopathy1, should try to consume the ordinary level corpse core to enhance their physique.
Physical condition is an important factor for survival.
“Did they not develop a detoxifying potion?”
According to the meaning inside, before taking a normal corpse core, it is important to disinfect it and maintain good personal health.
No mention of detoxification.
It’s very possible that no effective vaccine or medicine have been developed or even if it’s been developed, it’s impossible to widespread it on a large scale. ’ The former possibility is more likely that no such remedy has been developed otherwise, some countermeasures would be proposed, like collecting specific ’ medicines, which may increase the success rate and so on.
The fact that none was mentioned implies that it wasn’t developed at all.
The detoxifying potion in my hand has now become unique.
The requirements for potion preparation are not high, it’s a pity that they can’t help in the current situation.
The only survivor encountered has also lost his life and his vehicle was destroyed.
I should send the second-level corpse core in my hand to the guild for research, and try to get the potion and formula out as soon as possible.
Swoosh-!
The sound of friction against the ground could be heard.
Xiao Xiao was floating in the air, while Jianyi and Jianer were dragging a huge gray cat corpse over here.
This was the mutated cat that was killed by the giant zombie and is almost as large as a lion now.
“This is the one.” Xiao Xiao said.
“Well done.”
Hehe! Xiao Xiao laughed and turned in a circle in the air.
The grey cat’s corpse was thrown nearby. Besides the twisted joints on the body.
The most obvious place was a pit on its skull, as if someone scooped out its brain.
Directly used the Bone Manipulation Skill.
The flesh was separated from the bones, and a skeleton cat stood up.
[Skeleton Leopard Cat (Level 5)]
Leopard cat?
What kind of name is that?
Mentioning the leopard reminded Wu Heng of the cheetah under Slyther’s foot.
They re almost the same size, I wonder who would win in a fight.
This skeleton cat is only level 5, and its attributes are not very special either. Wu Heng took out a spear and flipped around where the skull was originally, but he didn’t find the ‘corpse core’.
No corpse core?
A thought crossed his mind, and he came up with a possibility.
After the giant zombie killed the mutated cat, it took the corpse core.
On thinking about it.
Wu Heng was shocked, could zombies also swallow corpse cores to evolve?
If that’s possible, then the third-level corpse core zombies are not the limit, and stronger zombies will emerge sooner or later.
The danger to humans is far from over.
After naming the skeleton cat as Little Grey, he ordered it to stay aside.
Xiao Xiao was wandering around with four dogs and a cat.
Wu Heng continued to carry out the boring transformation work. One by one, the skeletons stood up and walked into the queue behind.
He would rest for a while when his spiritual power was exhausted, and then continue the transformation.
Afternoon.
Wu Heng led the skeleton group and approached the crossroad to the east.
It was the crossroad where the giant zombie had toppled the survivors’ bus before.
He’d already been here yesterday, but he only took away the modified recorder and didn’t search the place carefully.
He rested for a while and scoured the nearby shops.
There were quite a few shops at the crossroads, but most of them were restaurants.
The rest were pharmacies, hair salons, and grain and oil shops.
Wu Heng led the skeletons into the pharmacy and moved all the medicines out.
He wasn’t sure what they were for, he could decide after taking them back. Besides medicines, he also found a wheelchair, a weighing scale, and a medicine frying machine in the shop, with s label saying that it could be exchanged for 6500 points.
After checking the pharmacy, Wu Heng led the skeletons into the grain and oil shop and a few other shops.
He moved out a large quantity of rice, flour, beans, and oil, and some kitchen knives and bone-chopping knives from the restaurants.
He gathered everything together and had the skeletons carry them back to the apartment.
When he returned, he put all the items away.
He found a building next door for a base and then returned to Black Stone Town.
At the professional guild.
“Mr. Wu Heng, how can I help you?” The staff member asked with a smile.
Wu Heng took out a filled form and a small piece of the corpse core, “I need to post a commission, to have this material tested and to make a detoxifying potion.”
“Oh, okay.” The staff member first looked at the content on the form, and after confirming that there were no problems, she took out a container to store the material.
The Alchemy in this world is quite impressive, at least it can make potions that modern society has not researched.
It’s not necessarily that modern society doesn’t have this technology.
Most people were infected, and the others were separated and hiding carefully in different places. It is challenging to gather the relevant technical personnel for research.
There should be many reasons for this.
After posting the commission and paying the deposit.
Wu Heng led Basen out of the city and found an empty-plated carriage.
He headed to the black market.
After paying the entrance fee, Wu Heng and Basen entered the black market.
It was still chaotic. The place was full of people in black cloaks; it was as if they had entered a gathering place for some cult.
He himself was one of them.
He didn’t linger in the hall but went straight to the second floor.
There were a few people in black robes on the second floor, whispering something at the front desk.
Wu Heng flashed his emblem at a staff member, and he was respectfully invited into a room on the inside of the corridor.
After a young maid served dried fruit and tea, a middle-aged man with a mustache came in.
He bowed and respectfully asked, “How can I assist you, sir?”
Wu Heng thought and said, “I want to place a commission for you to collect something.”
“There’s no problem with that, what do you need?”
“Bodies, the bodies of alchemists.”
