The research on the Philosopher's Stone requires living sacrifices. Although the ones used are death row prisoners and war criminals who have committed extremely heinous crimes, this matter is still somewhat taboo after all.

Therefore, Luo Ji did not send regular troops to take charge of the safety and security of the laboratory this time, but instead handed over the matter to the ANBU.

Therefore, except for a few ANBU members headed by Zhang Tang, there were only a handful of people who knew about this matter, including Luo Ji.

Now, after receiving Luo Ji's signal, Zhang Tang gently pushed open the closed door.

At that moment, Luo Ji, who was standing outside the door, had already frowned uncontrollably before he could see clearly what was in the room.

Even wearing a filter mask, the moment the door was pushed open, he could clearly feel a disgusting smell rushing towards him, making him hold his breath involuntarily.

.

Facts have proved that wearing a mask in advance is a wise choice.

Without thinking much, as thoughts were racing in his mind, Luo Ji's eyes fell on the room.

The room inside is not too big, and you can almost see it all at a glance.

And on the floor of that room, a huge formation was painted, taking up almost 70% of the area of ​​the room.

The moment Luo Ji's eyes fell on the center of the formation, a strong sense of nausea suddenly surged up!

"This, this is..."

At this moment, in the center of the formation, an extremely deformed humanoid creature was lying there!

The hands, feet, and limbs of the humanoid creature are all misplaced and twisted at extremely weird angles. At the same time, the entire head is completely turned over. There are empty eye sockets and no eyeballs, but under the gaze, it makes people feel that the thing is staring.

he.

At the same time, this entire creature has not even an inch of skin on its body.

The flesh, flesh and meridians were completely exposed to the air, but overall they looked a bit dry. In the hot summer, the thing seemed to be close to rotting. Many maggots soon grew out and were crawling around in the rotting flesh and blood.

go.

This is probably where the disgusting smell that fills the house comes from.

"Weichen has done some simple processing while keeping it as it is, but in the current climate, unless those things are treated more thoroughly, it will be basically impossible to avoid rot over a period of time.

of."

Halfway through his words, Zhang Tang didn't seem to know how to describe this deformed object, and in the end he could only call it a 'thing'.

At the same time, the meaning of Zhang Tang's words is also very obvious.

The first thing their ANBU did after discovering the situation here was to maintain the scene.

Under this premise, it will be difficult for you to perform large-scale processing.

Because they don’t understand the things in this laboratory. If something is destroyed during the processing, then whose pot belongs to it?

While talking, Zhang Tang took out some photos from the folder in his hand.

He had anticipated this situation in advance, and when he discovered it, he took all-round photos of the scene.

Luo Ji's eyes swept over the photos.

From the photos, Luo Ji could see that when Anbu discovered it, the thing was already in some shriveled and rotten condition, but it was obviously much 'fresher' than it is now.

On the flesh and blood, you can see patches of blood spilling out.

These photos clearly told Luo Ji what the large black mark in the center of the formation was.

It is basically certain that it was formed after the blood dried.

With this thought in mind, Luo Ji's eyes fell on that thing again.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the thing's completely turned head suddenly twitched!

Luo Ji happened to see this scene, and his heart twitched uncontrollably.

At this moment, even he was shocked.

At the same time, Wang Kai, who was following him, also quickly blocked Luo Ji behind him.

"Is this alive?"

There was a hint of uncertainty in Luo Ji's tone at this moment.

Faced with this problem, a drop of cold sweat fell from Zhang Tang's forehead.

"The situation of this thing is a little special. After our confirmation, it should have no life response, but for some reason, this thing still has some neurological twitching. At the beginning, the twitching was even worse.

It was even more powerful and very weird, but then, as time went by, this thing basically stopped twitching."

Having said this, Zhang Tang took a breath and then continued...

"This time, I was negligent. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

In response, Luo Ji waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.

Luo Ji already had an idea of ​​what was going on in the basement in front of him.

Although he didn't have the time or energy to study and research alchemy, Luo Ji still had some understanding of some things about alchemy.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Luo Ji could only draw one conclusion now.

That is the forbidden human body refining!

The essence of alchemy is equivalent exchange.

Under this premise, equivalent materials can be obtained after deconstructing the human body, but what about the soul?

The soul itself is intangible and unique, so there is no way to measure its value. It is basically something that is infinitely close to 'priceless', so how can it be exchanged for equal value?

Even with Gao Su's alchemy skills back then, he was able to refine it through the human body. After paying a heavy price, he only turned into an alchemy creature that looked exactly like his sister.

Therefore, based on the alchemical system, it is impossible to successfully refine the human body.

Even if you forcibly refine it, the best you can do is to refine a body without a soul, or even worse...

Afterwards, the artificial soul is implanted, and it seems to come to life, but in fact, you know better than anyone else that it is fake.

Wind Chime's alchemy skills were obviously far from being comparable to Gao Su's, and as a result, he created a body that was neither human nor ghost.

Looking at the body, Luo Ji hesitated for a while and then spoke in a deep voice...

"Find a place where no one is around and burn this thing."

"yes."

Three days later, after receiving the news that Feng Ling had woken up from his coma, Luo Ji hurried over.

The wind chime, who was leaning on the hospital bed at that time, seemed to be in a pretty good mental state, with nothing unusual about it.

At the same time, the test results obtained by the hospital showed no problems.

According to the doctor, as long as she is willing, she can be discharged from the hospital immediately.

After confirming this, Luo Ji slowly walked into the ward.

After signaling all the guards to leave, in the ward where only each other was left, Luo Ji asked in a deep voice...

"Wind Chime, were you trying to resurrect Gao Su before?"

Unexpectedly, when Feng Chime heard this, his face was filled with confusion.

"Gao Su? Who is that?"

"..."
