R'lyeh, R'yleh, Gu Jun managed to decipher the name from his memory.
For now, the mysterious cult was temporarily referred to by Phecda as the R'yleh Cult. The leader was an old man called the Deep Mountain Taoist. The cult worshipped the stone statue and believed a powerful ancient presence was slumbering somewhere in the world. Gu Jun believed that place to be R'yleh.
Back then, the cult had kidnapped a large number of babies and children at Guang Ting City. It was unknown whether they had committed the crime elsewhere or not.
Based on what was known, one of their goals was to use their ESP to 'listen to the voices of dreams'.
Over the past two days, the emergency personnel, investigators, and Tong Ye's group had a series of discussions, speculating on many possibilities.
Could the 'voices of dreams' refer to the voices from R'yleh? Some kind of electromagnetic wave? Those with high spirituality and ESP could receive them through their dreams?
Tong Ye was leaning toward this hypothesis because he felt like the information that was forced into his brain by the children was similar to the phenomenon at the bottom of the sea.
If they assumed that R'yleh really existed, that there were Great Old Ones, then …
"R'yleh is probably transmitting signals unconsciously," Tong Ye speculated, "and it's just a bunch of random signals. They have no purpose."
If the signals were specific, like powerful spells or the location of R'yleh, the cult would not have needed so many years.
But one thing was for sure, the cult had gained something from 'listening' to the signals.
However, in the end, the children were not enough to satisfy the cult's wish. The cult needed a breakthrough, and R'yleh Cult and Lai Sheng Company might have joined forces. That was how they came to have Gu Jun, a Super Spirit Child that had been specially trained since birth.
Obviously, a Spirit Child like Gu Jun could fulfill Lai Sheng Company's wish and help the cult hear more voices.
"There should have been some results back then." Dr. Shen said, "There are still many mysteries surrounding Ah Jun's childhood. According to him, his parents might have hidden some of the results and taken some documents with them. The last time they went out to sea was to search for R'yleh."
But R'yleh was probably not in Longkan.
At the beginning of this year, there were many strange things happening in the Longkan Sea. Ships passing by saw strange lights and so on. Although it was international waters, and Phecda could go and investigate after receiving this information, there had been a lot of such information this year. Some were true, and some were false. Longkan was far away, so it did not attract much attention.
That was how this piece of news reached Li Yuerui's ears.
Now, it seemed that Li Yuerui and the other two had coincidentally met Gu Jun. Otherwise, they might not have gotten into trouble.
No one knew how the abnormal power in Longkan was triggered, but that time, it was most likely triggered by Gu Jun.
Moreover, ever since that time, Longkan had not recorded any new strange occurrences. Previously, Phecda had sent the Special Mobile Force to investigate, but they did not find anything.
Longkan was not R 'yleh. The disappearance of the Seagull was still a mystery, but the cult probably did not achieve their goal.
Therefore, the cult remained silent for another eleven years until the recent outbreak of Nightmare Illness at the Eastern State.
Perhaps the current R 'yleh Cult had found another way to deal with the zombies.
"Zombies can create illusions, summon mental monsters, and invade dreams. All of these prove that the zombie cult has the ability to do this. "
Tong Ye believed that what happened to the Phoenix Unit proved that the R 'yleh Cult also had the ability to create illusions. Perhaps it was triggered by the ESP children. However, in terms of dreams, the cult might not be as good as the zombie cult, so they decided to target the zombies.
This speculation was mainly based on the report from the joint team. Chen Defa had a deep hatred and disdain for the R 'yleh Cult, and Gu Jun suspected that Old Dog Uncle was forced into this.
Was the oppression of the zombies by the R 'yleh Cult the reason for Chen Defa's hatred?
Did the cult use this method to obtain the knowledge of the zombies to create the Nightmare Illness? To suck away the mental power of the patients to awaken the ancient presence?
This was the theory that the emergency team had come up with, and it was the one that Tong Ye and Gu Jun agreed with the most. However, most of the theories were based on 'feelings' and conjectures, and they lacked direct evidence.
However, other than a pair of dissecting scissors that Gu Jun found, the investigators found nothing inside the cave. It was the same for the forest outside the cave, and the murals were hard to decipher.
This caused the team to place their hope on the autopsy room, but what kind of clues could they find from a dead body?
Even though the team had Gu Jun, forensic scientists, and autopsy experts … the problem was whether the body itself had them or not.
At the same time, inside the autopsy room at the Eastern State, Gu Jun, Uncle Dan, and the rest were focused on dissecting the zombie's dog face.
Its cheekbone, gingiva, and mandible all confirmed the X-ray results. The hyperplasia was deformed and the bones were extremely hard. Gu Jun used bone scissors and dissecting saw to cut through the bones. It took a lot of effort to cut through the bones.
Gu Jun had a strange feeling. On one hand, his mind was being nourished, but on the other hand, there were chaotic illusions surging before his eyes.
He could not tell whether the nourishment of his mind was fueling the illusions or suppressing them … In the end, he allowed the two to intertwine chaotically.
When they cut off the zombie's strange fangs, Wang Ruoxiang had a strange feeling as well. Due to her high spirituality, she seemed to have seen something in these teeth …
Before they entered the autopsy room, they were told to report any strange feelings immediately, so it was the same for Wang Ruoxiang.
"Focus, don't overthink." Gu Jun told her, but he knew that they were close to the discovery, and the closer they were, the stronger the strange feeling would be.
After an unknown amount of time, they completed the dissection of its face without any mishaps. Without stopping, they immediately moved on to the skull.
It was still Gu Jun's turn. The first step was to saw off the parietal part of the skull.
After cutting open the aponeurosis and periosteum, the sound of sawing came again. This was Gu Jun's first time sawing the parietal part of the skull, but he did not relent. Once he was reminded of the cranial holes that he had drilled during the lobotomies, he started sawing even harder. Finally, he pried open the deformed parietal part of the skull!
"Take this." Gu Jun handed the parietal part to Cai Zixuan. "Use it to pee. Anything will do."
"Huh?" Cai Zixuan took it and looked at it, and he was stunned. "This, the inside of the parietal part …"
Cai Zixuan raised the skull and showed it to the crowd. Now everyone could see it. Gu Jun frowned, and his eyes widened.
The conference room at the headquarters was filled with shock. Xiao Huiwen and the rest stood up involuntarily. Elder Tong, Prof Shen, and the investigators were shocked.
