626: The corpse city with great research value

Online, whether it was the battle zone local area network newly established by China after entering Tiannan Star, or the Tiannan Star network, everything was in an uproar.

On Origin Corpse City, Yang Dian had once again taken out the Meat Field seeds.

“How do these Meat Field seeds grow?”

Uncle Lei looked at the spherical flesh in Yang Dian’s palm, which was somewhat Q- 彈 (bouncy) when it was just plucked from the statue’s brow, but had become somewhat withered due to lack of earth power. He frowned slightly:

“The Activated Corpse City isn’t farmland, and it has its own consciousness, doesn’t it?”

“If we plant the Meat Field on the Activated Corpse City, will it attack the Meat Field?”

Yang Dian shook his head slightly:

“I don’t know, but probably.”

“However, guessing back and forth is meaningless. In any case, practice makes perfect. We’ll know once the seeds are planted.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Dian had already released his grip on the Meat Field seeds, letting them fall onto the Corpse City’s flesh.

The Corpse City, sensing a threat, squirmed.

However, this thing’s intuition was incredibly sharp.

Just like when Yang Dian merely snapped his fingers and released a tiny bit of Qi earlier, without doing anything else, it stopped all activity and began to play dead.

Sensing that Yang Dian’s Qi was still present, it still allowed the Meat Field to fall onto its body, take root and sprout, absorbing flesh to grow, without putting up any resistance.

Uncle Lei squatted down and observed the continuously expanding Meat Field for a while, as well as the flesh at the edge of the Meat Field, twitching slightly like jumping nerves:

“I think we still shouldn’t take risks.”

Seeing that Yang Dian and Chen Ci both turned their gaze to him, Uncle Lei continued:

“Look at this Activated Corpse City.”

“Its growth rate is extremely fast.”

“When it was just activated, it was only level with the ground. Now it’s already 80 meters above the ground.”

“The central area of the Walled City has a diameter of 8 kilometers, right?”

“Expanding so many times in such a short period, even you, Commander, can’t do that, can you?”

As he spoke, he poked the Corpse City’s flesh, which was twitching under the Meat Field’s erosion:

“And it’s also sufficiently patient.”

“When Commander was here, it allowed Chen Ci and me to fall into its body, and it was indifferent to us.”

“After you left, it dared to devour laser beams to grow, and then counterattack.”

“When you reappeared, it obediently retracted its tentacles, treating itself as a piece of meat, allowing you to take whatever you wanted.”

“It’s too obedient.”

“We should still find a way to deal with it.”

Saying that, he stood up again and looked at Yang Dian seriously:

“Tiannan Star has already overlapped dimensions with Earth, and we are definitely going to turn Tiannan Star into our Blessed Land.”

“The Meat Field is like a ticking time bomb. If we don’t deal with it, it could potentially affect Earth.”

“No matter how big or small that possibility is.”

“As long as Earth is our base, we shouldn’t take risks.”

After listening to Uncle Lei, Yang Dian nodded thoughtfully:

“Uncle Lei, you make a good point.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the expansion of the Meat Field immediately stopped.

Not only did it stop, but the Meat Field, which had already expanded to a hundred meters in circumference, even began to shrink.

Seeing this, Uncle Lei pointed at the Corpse City and said:

“See, I knew this thing had ulterior motives.”

“I only tentatively said a few words, and it couldn’t help but resist.”

Yang Dian gently pressed his hand down, directly annihilating the various zombie creatures that appeared on the surface of the Corpse City:

“Uncle Lei, we’ve already said we’re going to deal with it, and you still won’t let it resist?”

Chen Ci thought about the pus sacs that suddenly burst open on the Corpse City’s fleshy skin before being annihilated by Yang Dian, and the various zombie creatures that appeared within the pus sacs.

“Commander, don’t you think this Corpse City is a bit like the rumored Zerg?”

“Devouring everything, collecting biological genes, then combining, evolving biological genes, and creating more perfect creatures.”

“I just saw dogs with wings, tigers with bone armor appearing on their bodies, and zombie cats with glowing green eyes that felt dangerous just by looking at them.”

“I can feel that they were directly ‘born’ by the Corpse City, not originally hidden under the skin.”

“I think the Corpse City has great research value.”

The words “research value” seemed to trigger some preset information.

As soon as Chen Ci finished speaking, Dr. Bai’s communication request, though late, arrived.

As soon as the communication connected, he stared at the two distinct colors of flesh beneath his feet and said:

“The black is the Meat Field, and the red is the Corpse City?”

Without waiting for Yang Dian’s reply, he immediately materialized his projection, squatted down, and personally touched the Corpse City:

“This thing can devour energy?”

“No, not just energy.”

“According to the footage captured by Zero and Ya Zi, its material properties can also transform between flesh and steel, as well as soil and bricks.”

“Very magical substance.”

“Get some back for me to research?”

Although Dr. Bai’s tone carried a question, his eyes were filled with a craving for the Corpse City’s flesh:

“I haven’t made any Breakthroughs with the ‘Undead Jelly Monster’ you caught from Nanjing.”

“I feel that this Activated Corpse City could be my Breakthrough for in-depth research into the ‘Undead Jelly Monster’.”

“If I can thoroughly research the Corpse City’s ability to devour energy and grow, as well as the Jelly Monster’s immortality…”

Thinking of the beautiful scene Dr. Bai imagined, Yang Dian couldn't help but exchange glances with Uncle Lei, then with a flick of his hand, he cut off a piece of the Corpse City’s flesh.

After just two breaths, the severed crimson flesh lost its vitality and turned pale, then quickly blackened, emitting a smell of rotting meat.

He casually threw the rotten flesh back onto the Corpse City’s surface.

Upon contact with the Corpse City, the rotten flesh merged into it, becoming crimson and full of vitality once more.

“If you don’t want to use rotten meat for research, it’s best to build a new laboratory here on Tiannan Star.”

Dr. Bai nodded slightly, then looked at Yang Dian:

“Then you help me find the weakest Corpse City. I’ll go back and prepare the research equipment first. Once it’s ready, I’ll tell you, and you can help me transport it.”

With that, he hung up the communication without another word.

Chen Ci blinked at this:

“Is that Dr. Bai?”

“Just as I imagined, his mind is full of research, and he acts with great vigor.”

Yang Dian chuckled at the remark.

How was Lao Bai acting with great vigor?

He was clearly stimulated by Yang Dian’s act of washing his hands with the Planet Destroyer Cannon, not wanting to waste a single bit of computing power, nor a single second of research time.

But, in front of outsiders, one still had to give Lao Bai some Face.

Even if that outsider was the Commander of their Expeditionary Force’s Tenth Legion:

“That’s just how Lao Bai is; he doesn’t have much emotional intelligence. When he gets busy, his mind is completely filled with research.”

Chen Ci nodded in agreement.

Then, looking at Yang Dian’s back as he observed the Meat Field, she suddenly widened her eyes.

‘Did Commander just say something wrong?’

‘He and Dr. Bai are both people who carry China forward, so I acknowledge their good relationship.’

‘He calls Dr. Bai Lao Bai, and Dr. Bai calls him Lao Yang, which is normal.’

‘But when he just referred to Dr. Bai, it sounded like he used the second tone for ‘Lao’?’

‘Láo?’
