I'm trapped in a cube

Chapter 549: The Host I Never Thought of

By examining the penguins, doctors found that the rainbow virus did no harm other than coloring the host's body.

Although they still remain suspicious of this virus, the doctors can't find any more doubts. At this point, the cause of the penguins' rainbow transformation has been basically understood, so the doctors immediately started treating them. .

“Defining Rainbow Virus as a Disease, Cure…”

With the powerful healing ability of the doctors, the penguins soon returned to normal. The rainbow virus on their bodies was completely eliminated, and their coloration completely disappeared. After the doctors examined them, they returned them to their original empty island. superior.

As for the original virus environment on the empty island, doctors were powerless. They could only leave it to fate whether the recovered penguins would be infected again after returning to their original habitat.

"We are just healers, not gods. Our duty is to treat illnesses."

Not many doctors would choose to follow the patients back to their habitats, like Xi's companions, to completely eliminate the source of the plague.

These doctors who treated penguins did not have the courage to leave the Huasheng Islands.

Because of the strange characteristics of this virus, although Xi did not participate in the treatment of the penguins, he had heard about it.

"A harmless virus will not cause any other impact other than turning the host into a colorful color."

"But no one wants to become colorful. For some races that value their appearance very important, being infected by the rainbow virus is a very scary thing."

"But why is this virus on Senluo Island?" Xi looked at the colorful spindle-shaped hair ball above, and he recognized it. It was the rainbow virus, and its characteristics were very obvious.

"During the time I was asleep, the rainbow virus was also included in the species reserve? It's impossible. How can a virus be protected?"

Xi fell into confusion. Senluo Island seemed completely different from what he remembered...

"What kind of creature is that?" Mo Ling suddenly asked.

"Which one?"

"The one above, the host of the rainbow virus, must be infected with something, right?" Mo Ling pointed to the strange fish above.

"I don't recognize it, it's too far away." Xi looked at it carefully for a long time, but he really didn't recognize what it was.

In the dark lake, undercurrents rolled up turbid sand from time to time. Against the light, the two of them couldn't see clearly the details of the creature infected by the rainbow virus.

Nozomi could only vaguely see certain parts of the creature, and judged from the coloration on its body that it was a creature infected by the rainbow virus.

Mo Ling nodded: "Is it too far? Then I'll bring it over."

After saying that, he aimed at the creature.

Before Xi could react, the creature appeared in Mo Ling's hand.

Mo Ling looked at it for a while and then handed the dead creature to Xi.

"This doesn't seem to be a living thing..."

Xi took over the spindle-shaped creature in a daze, and the small strips wrapped around it were being peeled off. At the same time, the color on the spindle-shaped creature was slowly fading away.

"There are many kinds of creatures! These hair-like creatures are rot worms, a kind of worm that eats almost anything. There are many on Senluo Island. They are released by the managers to clean up the garbage on the island."

Xi suddenly thought of something and pulled apart the entangled rot worms with his hands, revealing what was underneath.

After seeing the fusiform object in the center, the two of them were stunned at the same time.

This thing wrapped in rot worms was actually a broken calf of a healer!

Everything below the ankle and above the knee was gone, leaving only the fusiform calf, which was tightly entangled with colorful rot worms, making it look like a "fish".

But that's not what shocked them the most...

Although it is still fading, it can be seen that the coloration of this calf is also extremely serious. Not only that, this calf is still twitching. The "swimming" they just saw was caused by the twitching of this calf.

"Still moving?" Xi was very surprised. He didn't know that doctors had the ability to regenerate severed limbs.

Mo Ling was also very surprised. This calf was teleported by him, and it can still move now?

"Is he still alive?" Mo Ling asked doubtfully.

Xi slowly touched his twitching calf with his hand and felt it carefully. After a while, he gave the answer: "Dead."

"Dead? Then why are you still moving if you are dead?"

"I don't know, the cells are all dead..." Xi also didn't understand.

He grabbed one side of the calf and carefully lifted it in his hand. The calf was still twitching from time to time.

"Senior, have you seen it? It's like there is a thread pulling it. Every once in a while, it will pull, and the direction is..." Xi paused for a moment and pointed to the center of the lake: "Over there."

Only then did Mo Ling realize that the calf twitched in the same direction every time. It was indeed as if there was a thread pulling on it, and the pulling force was not strong, just enough to make the calf move a little.

"I understand! Senior, this calf was not in the lake at the beginning. It is the same as the body I made at the beginning. It may be complete, but during the process of moving into the lake, due to some accident , that’s all that’s left.”

"It is also possible that it was eaten by rot worms and only this was left... However, even if it was completely dead, the center of the lake was still attracting it, pulling it into the lake little by little, and it 'swimmed' towards the center of the lake like a fish."

Mo Ling was very shocked when he heard Xi's words.

"Even death can't escape this attraction?"

What on earth are these bodies going to the center of the lake for?

Why are even the bodies made by Xi attracted to this strange thing?

In the turbid lake water, Mo Ling looked at the darker depths and became more and more confused.

The calf in Xi's hand was still twitching, as if nothing could stop it from moving forward.

The curiosity in the hearts of the two reached its peak. Mo Ling and Xi understood and didn't say anything. They took steps directly and walked along the bottom of the lake to the deeper depths.

...

The lake water seemed to become more and more turbid. Not long after walking, the two saw a more terrifying scene.

There were white bones everywhere in the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake. Some broken limbs that had not yet rotted were slightly exposed from the mud and sand. The scavenging creatures were wriggling at the bottom of the lake, devouring the food that "fell into the trap" wantonly.

"All of them are the bodies of the doctor, or rather, all of them are the bodies of the manager..."

Mo Ling saw many familiar bracelets at the bottom of the lake, all of which were worn by the manager, but now, these bracelets were either worn on a white bone or scattered in the mud and sand. Obviously, their owners had all met with misfortune.

It seems that not all bodies can go deeper, and a large part of them fell halfway.

Some intact bodies were still twitching slightly towards the center of the lake, and it seemed that the attraction had not disappeared, while the bones were completely motionless.

These bodies were not exactly the same. Some of them had strange distortions, and some were covered with strange blue algae. Mo Ling even found that a broken limb had glittering fish scales growing on it. It seems that the calf infected with the rainbow virus they saw was not an isolated case.

As Xi looked at these special "patients", the light ball on his head began to shake uneasily...
