I, Stitcher, Leon!

Chapter 42 Revisiting the Research Institute
The little boy is reluctant to part.

From the constantly trembling corners of his mouth, it can be seen that he still has many problems.

Only with the sunset, the sky darkened.

The night watchman was back on the streets, and residents and children were urged to hurry back to their rooms.

The little boy waved his hand and asked, "Can we meet again?"

"If there is a destiny, we will see you again."

In the middle of the night, when Li Ang, Pompeii, and Alice were on their way back to the Dawn Research Institute, Li Ang glanced back at the decaying but hopeful Xiyuan Town.

'If I leave this time, I guess I will never come back again. '

Regardless of whether he can find clues in the research institute, Li Ang's next plan is to leave here first.

The territory of the Southern Blackstone Federation is densely populated and has frequent trade exchanges.

And the attitude of the people here to the dark creatures is surprisingly consistent—eliminate evil and do everything.

If you can't find any useful information this time, Li Ang's idea is to go north.

Go to the turf of the joint fund.

The north is vast and sparsely populated, and the goblins, barbarians, and gypsy Roma have less tough attitudes towards dark creatures than the south.

Even many Gypsy Roma are obsessed with researching dark abilities.

Perhaps, it is easier to find clues about forbidden life there.

The night was shrouded, without the burden of the stroller and children, the pace of the three of them was much faster.

When it was close to dawn, they rushed to the mountain where the Dawn Research Institute was located.

After more than two days of drying, the black smoke in the research institute has dissipated.

From the bottom of the mountain, nothing unusual can be seen.

Along the way, Li Ang was not idle.

Practice all the skills you have mastered.

When watching the proficiency increase and freely assigning points to the account, there is a sense of satisfaction that "there is no waste today".

[Tendacle Control], which has the highest proficiency right now, can be upgraded to lv2 in five days.

Li Ang was quite curious about how his tentacles would change after the upgrade.

Pompei checked the ruts on the mountain road, and when he came back, he said firmly, "The ruts are still the traces of two days ago, and no one has been there."

Li Ang frowned slightly, and said after a while: "I hope I didn't think too much."

"Let's go up the ruts instead of the jungle."

If you step on the original ruts, you will not leave footprints, and the speed is faster than walking in the jungle.

When the sun had fully risen from the horizon, the three of them returned to the tunnel of the Dawn Research Institute on the mountainside.

After two days of heat dissipation, the tunnel has been completely filled with black ash.

You can still feel the warm wind blowing in the tunnel.

It is enough to see the ferocity of this fire.

The three of them walked into the research institute, and the trucks and cargo piles on the basement level were all burned to ashes.

Only the black frame of the truck remained, and the corpses on the ground were also blackened and turned into dry bones.

The three went straight to the experimental area on the second basement floor.

"When I left that day, all the experimental equipment was destroyed. Someone deliberately destroyed these materials."

Li Ang informed Pompey of the situation when he left that day.

Pompeii should be more familiar with the Institute than he who has no memory.

When I came to the research center, I looked at the equipment that had been completely burned.

The exposed transistors were broken, the plastic case of the CRT display was completely melted, the main boards of the equipment and instruments were all scrapped, and the storage media could not be found intact.

In this case, even if you invite a mechanical master from another world, you will be disappointed.

Pompeii pondered for a moment, then said: "Looking at the scale of the fire, it is estimated that all the electronic storage devices are hopeless to be repaired. Let's go to Maid's...doctor's living room and try our luck."

Pompey glanced at Alice while talking, and found that Alice didn't have any troubles because of the name, so he continued.

Black burnt ash is everywhere, and the temperature gradually rises as you go in.

From the cold spring outside the tunnel, it has transitioned to the current "in the sauna room".

In the doctor's living room, the main color has also changed to black.

Everything was almost charred, and the glass of the lamps, all burst open in the heat, turned into pieces.

Li Ang and Pompeii searched the bookshelves and desk ruins, but found nothing useful.

Pompeii sighed softly: "There is none here, so I can only go to the resurrection chamber."

Li Ang thought for a while, and could only nod his head.

"Alice, you and Uncle Pompey, wait here."

Li Ang didn't intend to let Alice experience the scene of waking up again.

The ghost knows if Alice will think of anything after seeing the doctor's skeleton.

After all, this is a world of supernatural powers, where anything can happen.

"Li Ang, search carefully. In the ruins, on the skeleton, don't miss any corners."

Pompeii shouted with his head stuck outside the resurrection chamber.

After entering the secret room of resurrection, the first thing Li Ang did was to find the unburned parchment cover of "Black Code" on the ground.

With just one glance, Li Ang found the cover that he had been longing for.

All the pages inside had been turned into black ashes, but the parchment book cover remained intact.

The silver skull and sheep's head made of metal on the spine of the book shone with a strange light under the weak light, and it was not affected at all.

Li Ang pulled it hard, and the sheepskin cover was extremely strong.

With the blessing of Li Ang's three times the strength of a normal person, it was not damaged or even deformed.

'It seems that this parchment cover is really a good thing, and it may be helpful in searching for the "Black Code" and tracing its origin. '

Putting away the parchment cover, Li Ang fixed his gaze on Dr. Meade who was charred and charred.

As an evil doctor who has studied the "Black Code" for decades and studied the suture structure of taboo life, Dr. Mead's hands are stained with countless blood.

The countless suture fragments in the catacombs bear witness to his crimes.

Li Ang fiddled with his tentacles.

As the deepest part of the underground research institute, it was also the earliest place where the fire broke out. After the doctor's skeleton was roasted by the fire, many parts of his body had burst and broken under the high temperature, and some weak places were directly burned to ashes.

But soon Li Ang noticed something strange.

Because the bones were turned over, something with a completely different color from the bones fell from the ribs, where the original heart was.

It is only the size of a fingernail and is black in color.

Li Ang used his tentacles to sweep under the bones for a while before he found them.

Wipe it casually, the texture of the crystal is soft, the whole body is black, it looks like irregular obsidian.

Just when Li Ang was wondering why this spar appeared in the skeleton, the system interface popped up in front of him.

[Discover dark energy crystal cluster x1, after use, it can enhance dark attributes and abilities, do you want to use it?whether】

Dark energy clusters?

This stuff, shouldn't it be the substance obtained by Dr. Meade's long-term immersion in the "Black Code", accumulating a large amount of dark energy, and refining it after death?

Otherwise it is difficult to explain why this thing was found in the skeleton.

Seeing the prompt from the interface, Li Ang chose to use it without hesitation.

At the same time, there was a sudden violent hum of a truck engine from the foot of the mountain.

A mighty convoy marched along the winding mountain road into the research institute tunnel...
