Plague Doctor

Since all the xenobiotic tubes in the foot cavity of the leg of lamb have been cut off, the leg of lamb has not liquefied any more.

However, its abnormality has not completely disappeared, or it is such a thing. Its epidermis is still hard, and ordinary anatomical instruments can barely dissect it. Good to use.

What is the substance that caused this situation? Even though the two worlds have dispatched the top scientific teams and tried many analytical methods such as chemical methods and physical chemistry methods, it is still unclear. It seems that some substances are indeed using instruments. The device cannot be detected.

These are not in Gu Jun's consideration for the time being.

Figuring out the hierarchy of this leg of lamb is his current priority.

When he returned to the dissection table, although his body had only recovered 50 to 60%, Gu Jun still entered a state of flow and started the dissection wholeheartedly.

The more the black goat cub's lower limbs are dissected and exposed these days, the more the team can feel the difference between it and the normal creature. I don't know if it mixes up a lot of different structures, or if those structures are separated from it, anyway, some of the parts that should not be grown on the lower limbs are grown there.

The most typical is the foot cavity, the structure is very similar to the cranial cavity, and there are three cavities near the metatarsal bone. It may be that this network transmits the regeneration signal, causing the limb to dissolve itself.

They also found a glandular organ that was found in various areas of the leg of lamb.

It is not yet clear what this gland organ is used for. Gu Jun temporarily named it "heterogenesis gland" because it feels that this organ is also involved in the process of limb dissolution and regeneration. This is just a hypothesis. Whether this is the case or not requires more anatomy and research in the future to determine.

At this time, there were only 10 hours left in the mission, and Gu Jun was dissecting another dysplastic gland in his foot.

Now the mission completion degree has reached 96.2, and it is almost complete.

But Gu Jun has also reached his limit again. In the past 20 hours, he has only rested once every one hour.

When I first woke up, my physical condition was still 50-60%, but now there are only 1-2% left.

The last 3.8 doesn't seem to be much, but when I tried to dissect the liver for a whole day, it only increased by more than 8, and the leg of lamb at that time was like a new continent, and new discoveries could be found everywhere. Now to find a new structure and get a big breakthrough, it is impossible to meet.

But at this moment, Gu Jun vaguely discovered that the dissected piece of heteroplastic gland was different from the previous one.

Glands are tissues that secrete certain juices in living organisms, and are divided into exocrine glands and endocrine glands.

Exocrine glands have ducts, and their secretions do not enter the blood and flow out through the ducts. Like the liver, bile is produced and flows through the common bile duct to the duodenum.

Endocrine glands are glands without secretory ducts. Their secretions are the so-called hormones, which directly enter the surrounding blood vessels and lymphatic vessels after secretion, and then the hormones are transported to the whole body by blood and lymph fluid, such as the thyroid and adrenal glands.

According to this classification, the xenobiotic glands of the leg of lamb are endocrine glands, because they cannot find ducts.

These heteroplastic glands are shaped like sheep's horns, which are elongated, and become narrower and narrower toward one end. The surface cortex, the inner medulla, and the epidermis are covered with dense blood vessels, and they are connected with many blood vessels in the surrounding tissues. The blood supply is extremely Rich.

Aside from an eerie gray-black color and a different shape, the xenobiotic glands are similar in some structures to the adrenal glands.

Therefore, there is another hypothesis. Could this be the "adrenal glands" of the black goat cub? Does the huge strength of the leg of lamb come from the hormones secreted by this gland? However, the team has not yet isolated the hormones of the xenobiotic glands, and can only find some regeneration fluids.

"Come and take a look, here..." Gu Jun called to Uncle Dan, Wang Ruoxiang and the others next to him, and Xiao Huiwen and other anatomical experts on the communication screen also opened their eyes to see clearly. Gu Jun asked them, "Does this look like some kind of catheter?"

Wang Ruoxiang frowned and watched, this gland was as big as the palm of an adult's hand, and it was black all over, shaped like a sheep's horn, and rich in blood vessels.

At first glance, it seems to be no different from the dysplastic glands in the thighs and calves.

But at the position indicated by the anatomical forceps in Gu Jun's hand, he forceps a dark red tiny tube from the blood vessels that extend from the glands. It is the same color as other blood vessels. Although it is a little thicker, it looks only thick. Just a little blood vessel.

However, Wang Ruoxiang immediately noticed the difference. It was actually quite conspicuous. She doubted, "This tube is not connected to other blood vessels."

Gu Jun nodded, and the others immediately understood. The richer the blood vessels, the more a network that extends in all directions. The veins are like that, even the aorta will have some branches, so the blood can circulate quickly throughout the body.

The epidermal blood vessels and extended blood vessels of these neoplastic glands are all networked, but this one thick tube is not, nor is Gu Jun picking up several other similar thick tubes with tweezers. The direction of the direction is the side of the phalangeal foot cavity, and the heterogenic tube is also connected to the blood vessel.

"I don't think it's a blood vessel, it's a catheter."

Gu Jun made this judgment, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong.

Everyone observed and agreed with his judgment. This is a different gland, the exocrine gland, which is almost certainly involved in regeneration.

With new discoveries, new names are naturally needed, and Xiao Huiwen suddenly has a conditioned reflex.

nervous.

"Let's call it the adrenal gland." Gu Jun decided quickly, as if he took the name of the neighbor's child and named it for his own child, "Let's see if we can find some of its hormones."

At the same time, he seemed to vaguely see a flowing liquid network, from the abnormal tube, to the foot gland, to the entire neural network, all the blood vessels...

The exhausted body swayed suddenly, the dissecting forceps in his hand had not yet been put down, and a new message from the system popped up in his mind:

[You have made a major breakthrough in the dissection of the black goat cub, the dissection completion degree is +3, currently 99.2, the remaining time of the task: 9:35:17]

This made Gu Jun so excited, as if he had poured three bottles of Red Bull in a row.

Coming soon, 0.8 left, soon. He encouraged everyone and also encouraged himself: "Come on, push harder, sprint!"

But the next five hours proved prematurely optimistic.

The 0.8 that could have been completed in an average of 2.4 hours, as he gradually became exhausted, and continued to lengthen.

One hour, another hour, the remaining 0.1 just can't go up.

His eyes were gradually becoming hazy, and the cortex of his head was so tight that he was about to split, and he could no longer think. He just operated mechanically in one breath, repeatedly separating the blood vessels on the instep of the leg of lamb, one after another, as if It is slowly crawling to the end.

[Anatomy Completion +0.1]

【Your anatomy task has been completed! Mission remaining time: 4:07:53, rating: 9-10

Mission reward: 1 contact with Sunset City; a medical technology; unknown]

【Your anatomy experience goes up! It is currently 750015000 (second level nine)]

Is it done...?

Gu Jun's mind was stagnant. He hadn't read a few new messages in his mind, so he couldn't tell whether it was real or just hallucinations.

Suddenly, it seemed that a string had finally broken, his eyes were darkened, his consciousness was blurred, and the whole person fell forward.

"A Jun!" "Gu Jun!" The panic calls of the surrounding people quickly faded into the darkness.

Love the plague doctor.
