A normal human's facial skin was thin, soft, and bouncy. It contained many sebaceous glands, sweat glands, and hair follicles.
But this zombie's skin was completely different. Even though there were not as many fungal plaques on the face, the skin was wrinkled and blackened, and the facial muscles had atrophied like the rest of the muscles. The already thin facial muscles had withered away, making it difficult to distinguish the layers of the skin.
The people watching the livestream were nervous, but the autopsy room was quiet.
When Gu Jun made the skin incision, his movements might have looked quick and brash, but he was actually very careful. He only used the tip of the Carlop scalpel to make a small incision …
A normal human's facial skin would normally be about 2mm deep, and the thinnest part, the eyelid, would be about 1mm to 2mm. But Gu Jun's incision was less than 1mm, about 0.3-0.5mm.
He used the toothed forceps to lift up the corner of the incision. The blade faced the surface of the skin and peeled off the skin from the middle of the face …
Hearing the tearing sound, the breathing of Du Mingjun, Chen Yishan, and the rest became heavy. Even Uncle Dan felt his heart skip a beat.
This skinning procedure was not that difficult, but Gu Jun was so fast! His kung fu skills had improved again.
Uncle Dan thought back to when he performed the parasite removal technique on Lin Mo. Even then, Gu Jun's skills were not as sharp and natural as this.
"This kid, no wonder he dared to pick the most difficult part." Uncle Dan was naturally happy about that. After the initial shock, he calmed down. If there was anyone in the Eastern State who could dissect this zombie well, it would be Gu Jun.
"Tycoon Jun is indeed as good as two." Cai Zixuan sighed. "Talent is everything."
Wang Ruoxiang was focused on helping. She used the forceps to pull on the connective tissues of the facial muscles. She took over the skin that Gu Jun had peeled off and placed it on a plate. The technical gap was huge, but it was not insurmountable.
As the skin was peeled off, the subcutaneous tissue of this canine face was exposed.
There was almost no fat. Dark green blood vessels and dark red nerves were distributed on the surface. They were not twisted, but there was a strange kind of shriveled and shrunken. Together with the enlarged and deformed jawbone and the swollen gland cysts, they formed a strange skinless face.
The shadowless camera above the autopsy table captured the scene, and the face appeared on the big screen in the headquarters conference room.
Xiao Huiwen, He Tao, and the others, who had been extremely anxious about Gu Jun's decision and handiwork, had long since changed their expressions. They were no longer in a hurry to say anything.
Gu Jun's extremely shallow but effective incision did not cause any damage to the shriveled facial muscles, and the subcutaneous connective tissue on the forehead was also completely preserved.
This operation was simply perfect.
"Uh, President Xiao," He Tao finally broke the silence, "this Gu Jun is really not idle."
Everyone nodded one after another. The information on Gu Jun was full of praise, which was a little hard to accept. After all, his age and qualifications were there. No matter what kind of ESP he had, the only abnormal creature he had ever dissected was the Necro-skins, and that was only a piece of their chest.
But now, they knew that they had been too arrogant …
With such a small incision and such a fast speed, the dog's face was still in a deformed and uneven shape. It was too difficult to control the strength of the knife.
"Idle?" Xiao Huiwen chuckled self-deprecatingly. "Unless he is a skin-stripper, you won't find this kind of skill anywhere. We are in a hurry. Why are we in a hurry? We should just sit on the sofa and watch. "
Once the expert made his move, the truth would be revealed.
Furthermore, Gu Jun's two classmates were very helpful, so no one mentioned the suspicion that they had about them earlier.
As expected, the shock of the peeling skin was just the beginning. The layers of dissection that Gu Jun continued to perform were truly spectacular. Facial muscles, facial arteries, veins, parotid glands, supraorbital nerves, infraorbital nerves, and mental nerves …
Gradually, they got used to Gu Jun's extreme speed and precision, and their attention returned to the zombie itself.
They realized that this face could be interpreted as secondary hyperparathyroidism. The zombie did appear to have been transformed from a human.
Regarding this result, the atmosphere in the conference room and command central was rather complicated.
This was a blessing for the advancement of the research, but it was a misfortune in itself.
The other blessing was that the situation that they were worried about did not appear — the negative effect of a zombie on a human's mental state. That was also the concern that Tong Ye and Dr. Shen had for Gu Jun because he had just cast a spell with all his might during the previous operation.
However, it did not seem to affect him that much. The more he dissected, the more excited Gu Jun became!
"Does this kid have a special hobby in this area?" Tong Ye asked Dr. Shen. Dr. Shen really did not know.
In the autopsy room, Gu Jun continued to dissect the canine face's lacrimal organ. The lacrimal glands and lacrimal canaliculus were still there, and he was getting more and more excited.
He used the Carlop scalpel, and there was a strange feeling in his heart. This was the first time he had dissected a zombie since he got the two Carlop instruments.
The scalpel and scissors were naturally used for dissection.
"This feels like …" Gu Jun could not help but wonder. The scalpel had always been as gentle as water to him. Once he got his hands on it, it would feel like it had become one with his hands. Now that he had the level 3 Hands of Dexterity, he did not even need to warm up.
However, there was a feeling of nourishment in his heart, and it was so good that it did not feel right.
Dissection was a tough job. It was mentally draining, especially when dealing with this kind of abnormal carcass.
How did he recover from the exhaustion he had suffered over the past two days? It was as if the power in his heart was surging … the power of the Son of Steel …
Suddenly, a thought flashed across Gu Jun's mind. 'Could it be that this scalpel and scissors are really a kind of magical instrument from the foreign world?' He had thought of that before. The foreign civilization worshiped the Goddess of Life, and Doctor Carlop was the most revered of them all.
He did not think people who could not wield power would be revered unless the foreign civilization was different from the earthlings.
If Doctor Carlop was indeed one of the people in that world who could cast spells … then why couldn't the magical instrument be a medical instrument?
When he was casting the Word of Destruction and the R 'yleh spell, he was holding this scalpel in his hand.
Now that he purposely stopped, the feeling of nourishment really did disappear …
Gu Jun looked at the bloodied scalpel in his hand, and his heart leaped. 'Could it be that if I use them for their original purpose, they will have this effect? They can help me recover my corrupted mind and digest the power of the Son of Steel, Lenton? That's why I'm so excited. Could it be because of the abyssal mission? '
"Ah Jun, what's wrong?" Uncle Dan asked.
