The Death List Novel - Chapter 466
Chapter 466 Promotions
“Major Gerhardt, please bring these with you. These are water wave vibrators and receivers that will keep us informed of your situation.” Dr. Shahr handed Kieran a collar-shaped instrument and earplugs and instructed him to put them on.
“Can I breathe freely in this amniotic fluid tank?” Qin Lun looked curiously at the large glass box in front of him that was beginning to fill with water.
He had seen something similar before, in the last World War II world. After the Allied forces captured Monica, they imprisoned her in the amniotic fluid tank.
“Yes, it may be a little irritating to the nasal cavity and lungs at the beginning. However, this kind of amniotic fluid is rich in oxygen molecules and it binds easily to the cells in the lungs, so it won’t suffocate you.”
Dr Shahr said confidently, “Of course, if you really don’t feel comfortable, let us know that the water vibrator translates your vocal cords into a language that we can understand.”
Qin Lun smiled and teased, “Haha, I originally thought I was lying on a hospital bed with countless monitoring sensors attached to my body …”
“That is a very backward medical method. We have long since abandoned it. This amniotic fluid tank can detect and treat internal bleeding and inject corresponding therapeutic drugs. It can also stimulate and resuscitate cardiopulmonary function through different degrees of electric shock. It can be said to be the most advanced medical method in this era.”
Dr. Shahr said proudly, “Although the Allies have such medical equipment, they are not as advanced as us. Well, Major Gerthardt, please step in and keep in touch with us at all times.”
“En!” Qin Lun agreed. He took out a rune bottle that contained the demon’s blood essence from his bosom, flicked his finger and sent the cork flying. He raised his head and drank the azure ice flame in the bottle in one mouthful.
“Hiss!” As soon as the blood essence from the Ice Flame Devil entered his mouth, Qin Lun felt an icy cold aura quickly spread from his mouth to his entire body. He instantly lost all sensation from his throat to his stomach.
“Not good!” Qin Lun’s pupils shrank as he casually tossed away the rune bottle. Taking advantage of the fact that his body was still a little conscious, he kicked his legs and jumped into the amniotic fluid tank below.
While he was still in the air, his eyebrows and beard had already been covered with a layer of sparkling frost. His exposed skin was as pale as snow, and the capillaries beneath his skin could even be clearly seen.
“Gulululu!” As Qin Lun breathed, a string of bubbles rose from the amniotic fluid. However, the bubbles froze halfway up the amniotic fluid tank. With Qin Lun’s body as the center, the entire amniotic fluid tank started to freeze.
“Ka la!” The tempered glass of the amniotic fluid tank was cracked like a spider web. The density of ice was lower than water, and with Qin Lun inside, the sealed amniotic fluid tank began to collapse.
“Not good, quickly disperse!” Grant hugged his head and threw himself sideways, retracting into the back of an instrument. Although the Montana major was fat, he reacted quickly. He pulled Dr. Shahr and the two of them squatted behind a workbench.
“Bang!” The glass fragments of the amniotic fluid tank scattered everywhere, causing a lot of chickens to fly and dogs to jump in the research lab. Many of the staff members were injured. The unluckiest guy was holding onto his throat, twitching on the ground. His companion beside him was hurriedly pressing his neck.
His carotid artery was cut by a fragment. If it weren’t for the large number of medical personnel here, he would have died in a while.
“I almost got cheated by this guy!” Grant wiped his face and stood up to look at the amniotic fluid tank. The original amniotic fluid tank only had one base left. Above the base was a huge cylinder of ice.
This icicle was more than a meter in diameter and 2.3 meters tall. It was different from ordinary ice cubes. Its color was azure like seawater, sparkling and translucent. Qin Lun’s entire body was naked and his hair was blonde. He closed his eyes tightly and maintained the posture of standing on his head and feet, standing upside down in the icicle.
“What’s going on?” Dr. Shahr stared blankly at the large chunk of ice in front of him.
Major Montana glanced at the location where Qin Lun had just discarded the rune bottle. There seemed to be a few drops of that dark blue liquid left in the bottle.
However, as the rune bottle shattered, the liquid turned into a tiny azure flame, and the surroundings of the flame strangely froze into a circle of blue frost about half a foot in diameter.
Major Montana frowned slightly. He remembered that when Qin Lun and Grant were brought into the flying warship by Hans, they were empty and did not hide this bottle of blue liquid.
However, the major quickly recovered his thoughts and looked at Qin Lun’s icicle again. Most superhumans had their own secrets. It was not uncommon for superhumans like him to be able to store things inside their bodies. There was no need to dig deeper here.
“Haha, it seems that we can’t do anything. Captain Kluge, let’s go to the restaurant for a cup of coffee first.” Major Montana smiled and greeted him, “Major Gerhardt, since you said it would take half a day or so, there’s still plenty of time.”
“No, there’s no need!” Grant’s lips curled into a strange smile as he pointed at the ice cube and said, “I didn’t think this kid would react so intensely. Whether it’s success or failure, I think we’ll know the result very soon!”
Before Grant could finish his sentence, the blue icicle that had frozen Qin Lun had undergone a miraculous change. The ice cubes that looked extremely hard on the outside seemed to be flowing liquid inside. The youth with his eyes tightly closed slowly bent his knees in the ice, his arms crossing his legs as he floated and sank in the ice, like a fetus being conceived in a mother’s body.
“The color of the ice seems to be fading!” Many German scientists who were observing nearby noticed subtle changes in the ice.
Indeed, the azure icicle that had frozen Qin Lun was gradually fading, as if all the energy within had been absorbed by the youth. Moreover, water mist began to rise from the surface of the icicle, causing countless droplets of water to emerge. If this trend continued, it would soon turn back into a pool of amniotic fluid.
“Look, look, what is that?” The onlookers suddenly cried out in shock.
Qin Lun suddenly changed drastically in the icicle. From time to time, some slender and sharp spikes would appear on his body. These spikes were short and long, but the moment they appeared on the surface of his body, they immediately retracted into his body. Standing in the outside world, one could see the ripples in the icicle with the naked eye.
The two strongest men on the field, Grant and Major Montana, saw the spikes and at the same time, they felt a sense of danger in their hearts.
“Researchers and soldiers below the sergeant level should leave this place. Also, call Captain Hans and Lieutenant Sorin to rush here and let them guard the entrance of the research lab.” Major Montana frowned and immediately issued a new order.
After giving the order, Major Montana still turned to Grant and asked worriedly, “Captain Kluge, do you think Major Gerhardt will succeed in his promotion? His current body transformation …”
“I don’t know!” Grant sighed. He knew that Qin Lun’s upcoming Second Grade profession was related to the Abyss Devil bloodline, but he had never seen the transformation of the Abyss Devil bloodline. The Montana major’s question left him unable to answer.
“However, I know that regardless of whether he succeeds or not, he should still be alive!” Grant glanced at his Apostle Soul Seal and smiled as he comforted. Since the Broken Star Sky did not prompt the guild to reduce their numbers, Qin Lun was naturally fine.
As the two of them spoke, Qin Lun underwent a new transformation. His body, which was curled up like a fetus, slowly opened. The skin on the surface of his body began to transform into a translucent azure color. Mysterious runes covered his entire body, appearing both inside and outside his body at the same time.
The blood vessels in his body that could be seen with the naked eye were slowly flowing with azure liquid. However, from time to time, striking emerald green silk floss would appear in some places.
The young man’s originally slender and unsturdy body was now tangled with muscles and muscles. Soon, he turned into a muscular man over two meters tall. Even the work beneath his legs seemed to have grown a whole circle, and he stood tall and valiant.
However, this was not his most significant change. Not only was Kieran’s limbs muscular, his fingers were also transforming into non-human ones. Fingers and toes began to keratinize, the tip curved like a hook, looking a little like an eagle’s claw, but it was completely different from the shape of an eagle’s claw.
Two spiral, translucent blue horns appeared on his forehead. At first glance, they looked like goat horns, but the tip of the horns curved inward. The tip of the horn was opposite to the tip of the horn, and each of them emitted a ball of blazing azure flames.
The two balls of blue flames quickly fused between the two corners, propping up a ball of blue ice flames above his head that seemed to never be extinguished. In the midst of the raging flames, everyone seemed to be in a trance, as if they could see countless azure ice flowers dancing around the blue flames.
The only thing that hadn’t changed was Qin Lun’s face. His appearance remained human, his eyes closed, and he didn’t move.
“He succeeded!” Grant let out a long breath and looked at the young man in the icicle with a complicated expression.
“Bang!” With the end of the transformation, Qin Lun seemed to have awakened. His eyelids twitched slightly and he had completely turned into a light blue icicle. An invisible crack appeared on the surface of the icicle.
“We’d better hide. He doesn’t seem to be able to wait for the icicle to melt!” Grant’s face twitched as he turned to Major Montana and smiled bitterly.
“Alright then!” Hearing that Qin Lun’s transformation had succeeded, the Montana major was also very happy. The two of them tacitly avoided talking about the youth’s current inhuman image.
After Qin Lun drank the Frost Flame Demon’s blood essence, he quickly lost consciousness. In his daze, he felt that the surroundings had become a completely covered land of ice and snow, while he himself had turned into a little devil of ice and flames that was completely azure in color and somewhat transparent in body.
He didn’t know how much time had passed, but he had been foraging and playing in this icy and snowy land, fighting alone against all sorts of strange and powerful creatures. As time passed, he became more and more powerful. Until one day, a group of Flame Fiends dressed in blazing flames came from the land of ice and snow.
He roared and fought many enemies to the death, killing one intruder after another. In the end, he exhausted all his strength and was caught by this group of Flame Fiends.
Endless rage and memories poured into Qin Lun’s mind. For a moment, he couldn’t even tell who he was. However, in the primordial chaos, a few familiar and unfamiliar faces appeared in front of him, causing him to be horrified and recall his true identity …
