Studying Science in the Alternate World Chapter 63

  Chapter 63 Human Head

   There is no rush to enter the house, Duke must first ensure safety.

  He walked to the window, the glass was a little blurred, and the room was very dark on a cloudy day, making it hard to see what the interior looked like.

   "I wish I had a flashlight!"

  Duke complained a bit. The Learning Tower of the Seven Towers Federation has invented light sources such as spirit wind lamps, but they are too big and not convenient.

  We can't let him come to explore with a lamp in his hand.

   "Xiao Yi, write it down, when the Sand Eagle 1.2 scope version is successfully developed, immediately start developing the Sand Eagle 1.3 tactical light version!"

  He wants to install a light for the Sand Eagle so that it can shoot at will at night.

   "Good master."

   "By the way, what's the progress of 1.2 research and development, still stuck at 67.3% and unable to move?"

   "Broadcast for you, the master—Process 3: Sand Eagle 1.2 scope version, the research and development consumes 47% of the power. The current research and development progress is 67.3%, and the technical points have not yet been calculated. The time budget cannot be estimated."

   "How about this, change, keep the progress of version 1.2, and develop version 1.3 first, it's just a tactical light, it should be successfully developed soon."

   "Good master, a new research and development process has been replaced for you." Xiaoyi immediately executed it.

  At this time Duke had managed to peek through the window to get a glimpse of the interior of the wooden house.

  The size of this wooden house is not small, it must be 100 square meters. Through several windows, you can see a kitchen, a study, and a workshop full of bottles and cans. There are also stairs leading to the attic on the roof, which is a very delicate layout.

   Go back to the main entrance of the wooden house.

  There was no padlock on the door. Duke tried to push it, and a large cloud of dust shook off, but the door was not pushed open.

   "It's locked from the inside?" He was a little surprised.

   Immediately, with a sudden force, the lock bolt on the wooden house door was broken, and the door opened in response.

  Xiaodou nervously stood up from his shoulders. It didn't feel any danger, but it instinctively became nervous about the unfamiliar dark place.

   Probably the living room, the furnishings are very simple.

  One table, two benches, no other furniture.

  Duke carefully inspected the corners, and determined that the wooden house should have been in ruins for a long time, and the floor and the roots of the walls had been corroded and had holes.

  The dust is even thicker.

  Push open the door leading to other places from the living room, and the first thing you see is the kitchen. There are old-style spiritual rice cookers and spiritual energy stoves, but they have not been used for a long time, and the appearance has been rusted and corroded. There is also a spirit storage card inserted into the card machine interface of the spiritual tool.

  Duke wanted to pull out the Chu Ling card, only to find that the Chu Ling card had been corroded with the interface of the card machine, and it shattered with force.

   "Completely scrapped..." Duke let go.

  In the entire kitchen, none of the spiritual utensils were well preserved, and they were all rusted and corroded.

  However, it can be seen from the sink that there are dishes piled up. It seems that someone put the dishes in before, but the cleaning has not started yet.

  Leaving the kitchen and entering another room.

   Inside is the study room, the bookshelves are full of various books, and there is an open book on the desk, which is slightly moldy, but it does not affect reading.

   "Bones of Leon", this is the title of the book.

   "Xiao Yi, have I read this book?" Duke asked.

   "The owner has never read it, but the title is in the database. This is a novel, not a professional book."

  Duke has read almost all the professional books of the Falun Society in the town, but he seldom reads non-professional novels and poems.

  He went to the bookshelf again.

   Scanning ten lines at a glance, I found that many of them are literary books such as novels, poems, and dramas, but there are also some professional books.

   ""Inspiration from Alchemy on Life", "Charles' Ring of Time", "Analysis of the Soul", "Evil Immortality", "Assembly of Puppet Parts"..." Duke found that he hadn't read most of these books, and the Magic Society did not accept them.

  He swept to the other side of the bookshelf, where instead of books, there were newspapers, magazines and periodicals.

   ""Puppet Daily", "Journal of Life", "Guide to the Arcane Tower", "Daily Shenjiao City", "Spirituality"...these are all academic journals and newspapers!" Duke couldn't wait to open a copy of "Guide to the Arcane Tower".

  He has heard about this journal.

  When he was at Faling Pagoda in Shenjiao City, he saw that there was subscription information, and spiritual apprentices could subscribe, but each issue cost 5 silver dragons.

  Knowledge requires payment!

   is the rule of the arcanist!

  When Duke opened the journal, he really understood this truth. The inside of the journal was blank, with no text or pictures.

   "There is no doubt that this journal has contractual restrictions. It can only be read by the contractor alone, and there is also a time limit."

  Just like the "Universal Blood Refining Method" he bought back then, only one person can read it.

   Immediately afterwards, he opened many periodicals and magazines one after another, and found that most of them were the same as "Guide to Offata", which was blank.

  There are only some newspapers and a few magazines with text and pictures inside.

  He read one of the newspapers, "Daily Shenjiao City", which showed that the date of publication was July 18, 4382 in the storm calendar.

   "4382?"

  Duke himself was born in 4396, and this newspaper was 14 years earlier than it was, that is, it was published 29 years ago.

   "At that time, Snakeshou Town hadn't even been established. It was just a city in the war to open up the Black Snake's lair, right?"

  This "Daily Shenjiao City" is also the latest newspaper on the bookshelf, that is to say, it was around this time that the owner of the wooden house left.

   "And this person should be an arcanist!" Duke was convinced.

  One person can subscribe to so many newspapers, magazines, and periodicals with contracts, obviously financial resources are amazing, and these magazines are quite professional, ordinary people will not subscribe to these magazines unless they are insiders of spiritual arcana.

   "An arcane mage twenty-nine years ago built this wooden house here, far away from the city at that time... I don't know what the purpose is, but he should be dead. There are no immortals in pioneering wars, and arcanists will die as well."

   If not dead.

   It is impossible for an arcanist to abandon this wooden house, no matter what, the spiritual artifacts, spirit cards, and books in the wooden house should also be taken away.

  He put down "Daily Shen Jiao City" in his hand, left the study, and entered the last room.

   Pushing open the door, a rotten stench hits the face.

  There is a long table against the wall, which is full of various bottles and cans. It was not clear from the window before, but now it is clearly visible.

  Duke's pupils suddenly dilated.

   There are not only various insects, stuffed animals, and some cloudy colorful liquids in the bottles, there are even human heads in a few bottles in the corner.

  The human head is soaked in the liquid, and the eyes are still wide open.

   "Human experiments?"

  Duke gasped.

  Suddenly understood why an arcane mage built a wooden house in the jungle far away from Fangshi.

   Isn't this just to study human experiments?

   "Arcanist..." After the shock, Duke quickly accepted it calmly.

  There are scientists on the earth who do all kinds of experiments that violate ethics. In this world with extraordinary power, it is unbelievable that arcane masters use human beings for experiments.

   "Huh!"

  Duke calmed down and left the specimen storage room. He was going to go to the attic to take a look. The human experiment of the arcanist was probably carried out in the attic.
