Magic Tech’s Lair

cave.

Thin black mist filled the air.

Eggy and Big Stick stood beside Cao Yan, one on the left and the other on the right.

Cao Yan withdrew his gaze from the spider web, and looked at the big stick that was leaping and dying with electric arcs.

After this guy advanced, he seemed to become more irritable and restless.

When Cao Yan came over for a while, it was not quiet for a moment. Its thick and long body twisted and turned, and the two small tentacles in front of the corners of its mouth sometimes stretched and sometimes shortened, entertaining itself, and its skin was fierce.

Eggy was as cold as ever, not moving at all.

These two guys happen to be two extreme personalities.

Cao Yan made a gesture, and Eggy and the big stick moved back and forth in the cave.

laugh! Click!

The tentacles at the corner of the mouth of the big stick responsible for opening the way flicked lightly, and a bolt of lightning appeared out of thin air, and the dazzling light illuminated the cave. At this moment, Cao Yan saw a phantom-like phantom-like creature floating in the air with a body made of mist from the darkness in front of him. Only the eyes shone with dark purple light.

The pet master's assistant promptly pushed out the biological attributes that were struck by the lightning of the big stick and the body was pierced.

Then another message was pushed:

The lightning attribute of the big stick will make ghost creatures fear, but it will in turn form a special attraction, just like moths to a flame, the big stick is like a natural enemy to ghost creatures. Most ghost creatures will take the initiative to approach, wanting to attack and bite the big stick. Please host attention.

Cao Yan thought to himself: "The big stick is the Tang monk's flesh in the abyss of the magic eye."

At this time, the mist that formed the body of the Charm that was struck by lightning began to dissipate, and a purple-black crystal core fell from its body.

The tentacles of the stick lightly wrap around the crystal nucleus, and look back at Eggy, meaning to ask Dandan if she wants to eat the crystal nucleus.

Eggy raised her lower limbs, and happily ate the big stick.

Eggy's position as the leading brother is solid, and Cao Yan's magic pets are all in awe of him.

Cao Yan briefly inspected the cave for a while, and then prepared to return to the association. He needs to report to the newly assigned task force.

Before leaving, Cao Yan asked Taohua to come over to take over through the attendant assistant, um, leave it to the attendant if there is anything to do.

Taohua quickly rushed over through space delivery, and appeared next to Cao Yan. While looking at the cave, he said, "Since the boss wants to hunt down the magic pet, why didn't he call the little guy here?"

The little guy refers to the single little fat dog.

"It's still in its infancy, so it won't be very effective in tracking this kind of ghost-type creature that doesn't have a body."

After Cao Yan finished speaking, he returned to the room at the headquarters of the association.

Taohua and Dandan, a small team made up of big sticks, began to search for rare monsters in the cave.

Here Cao Yan went back to the house, and then heard a knock on the door.

Opening the door, there was a twenty-six or seven-year-old woman with short hair and a rather rigid face standing outside the door: "You are Cao Yan?"

Seeing Cao Yan nodding, the woman continued: "The research department is quite special. The internal things are the core secrets of the association, and you are not allowed to enter and leave at will, so I will pick you up in person. My name is Peiluo, and I am from the research department."

She turned and walked out: "You follow."

Cao Yan and Pei Luo left the place where they lived, and met Ji Wen and Dai Ma when they came back.

Knowing that Cao Yan was going to the research department, they followed behind.

The research department of the Pet Association is located on the sixth floor of the main building, and there are research groups one by one inside.

Except for internal personnel, it is strictly forbidden to enter and exit this floor at will. Going up is a corridor, with office locations separated by transparent glass on both sides.

Most of the internal staff wear white coats, which are standard scientific research work attire.

Cao Yan and the others followed Pei Luo to the research department. Walking forward in the corridor, through the glass, you can see different rooms. There are many objects that are being researched and deciphered by the staff. They don't look like ordinary things, they are weird, and they have everything.

"There is a monster skull in that research group, which is actually colorful. What kind of creature is this?"

Dai Ma saw the things placed in a studio through the glass, and whispered to Ji Wen in surprise.

"In the research room here, there is an ancient monument that is actually glowing." This time it was Ji Wen who spoke.

"That skull is the remains of the colorful rhinoceros excavated in the Prairie Grassland last week. It is an extinct species of warcraft. It is the material for studying this ancient creature... That ancient tablet is the inscription used by the priests of the ancient elf court and temple. , because it is made of moonstone, so it can emit light..." It was Peiluo who explained.

She cast a glance at Ji Wen and Dai Ma, she looked down on their knowledge, slightly shook her head, and then looked at Cao Yan again:

"The notice from the association said that your talent in semiotics is extraordinary. I'm quite curious, to what extent your talent can be so extraordinary that you can be directly assigned to our group. By the way, I would like to remind you that although you are here, But whether you can stay or not depends on your performance. You will enter our group later and need to start working directly. I hope you will not let us down."

The entire research department has more than 30 groups with different divisions of labor.

Among them, the expert group needs to be exceptionally outstanding in a certain area before they can enter.

Cao Yan was finally led by Pei Luo to a room similar to a laboratory.

Before entering the room, Peiluo said to Daima: "The personal information sent by the association says that you are a guard. Wait outside. Your identity is not allowed to enter the research room."

Being called out and not allowed to enter, Daima snorted, and the boss stopped unwillingly.

Cao Yan and Ji Wen walked into the room. The room was spacious, with several workbenches neatly arranged and various items piled up on them.

There were seven or eight people, almost all of whom were middle-aged and elderly. No one paid much attention to Cao Yan's arrival, and they were all busy with their own affairs.

Pei Luo was afraid of disturbing other people's work, so he did not introduce Cao Yan's identity in public, and said in a low voice, "This is one of the four studios of our research group, and everyone here has their own work. No assignment is required for what to do, according to Find what you are good at. The table in the middle of the room is something that needs to be studied or deciphered.

As you work, your assistant keeps track of work progress and results. If it is done well, there will be corresponding gains. "

After Pei Luo finished speaking, she walked to the workbench aside, immersed herself in her own work, and ignored the two of Cao Yan.

Cao Yan was never stage frightened, so he led Ji Wen around the research room quietly.

In the center of the room, there is a metal countertop, on which there are many things waiting to be studied.

Cao Yan looked around the booth, full of interest, all rare things.

He looked at it for a while before stopping at one spot.

In front of him was something covered in glass, a half-human-sized metal plate, old and mottled, with a lot of semiotic content engraved on it.

There is a sticky note under the metal plate, writing the job requirements, stating that the board is damaged, and the missing symbols need to be deciphered based on the existing board content.

This is semiotics-related work that Cao Yan is good at.

He glanced at it a few times, and remembered what Pei Luo said, he could find anything he was interested in here and start working. Then he took the pen and paper handed over by Ji Wen with long eyesight, and got busy writing on the paper, starting his first job after coming to the headquarters.
