Chapter 559: The Horror of Lovecraft's Pendant

"I know, I'll let it go."

Bruce Wayne nodded and drank his wine calmly.

It looks like nothing really happened.

Seeing his master like this, Alfred could only shake his head helplessly and take two steps back.

"What a magical thing! If we have this, those people who died in monster attacks can survive!"

Feng Yuan said as he looked at the screen excitedly.

"Yes, but..."

However, Zhu Xingtuan looked worried and seemed to have different ideas.

"The containment objects that appeared on the screen before were all dangerous. Why are they suddenly showing containment objects that look so safe and suitable for humans? I always feel like there might be something wrong."

Zhu Xingtuan looked at the pendant on the screen with caution, always feeling that there was something left to say.

After hearing this, Feng Yuan also looked at the screen worriedly.

[If the experiment goes to this point, everyone will only think that the Lovecraft pendant has a powerful healing effect like a panacea, but this is not the case. It is like Pandora's box. When the box is opened to enjoy endless benefits, the disadvantages will follow.]

[If you are exposed to the light ball created by the Lovecraft pendant for a long time, there will be extremely terrible side effects. ]

[When the screen said this, the video switched to a wounded person receiving treatment with the Lovecraft pendant.]

[Under the light, the wounded man's injuries are healing rapidly, and he is gradually turning back into an ordinary person. However, there is no intention to close the pendant, and the man is still exposed to the light. ]

[As time goes by, changes occur! ]

[This person's skin began to change into something that did not belong to humans, but rather to the skin of a wild animal. This person also cried out in pain, but this was not the end, the abnormality was still expanding.]

[In less than a minute, he had lost the characteristics that a human should have and turned into a wild boar that looked like it could walk upright.]

[This is not the end yet. Its bones are protruding outwards, directly piercing the muscles inside, rushing out of the skin, and turning into barbs, like the spikes of a hedgehog, covering the monster's entire body.]

[“Roar, roar, roar, roar!!”]

[The monster roared with great anger, then looked around as if searching for something, and finally rushed to a random spot, unexpectedly crashing through the alloy wall.]

[“Ahhh! Help!”]

【"What's this!"】

[Some researchers were passing by and saw a monster suddenly appear. They were terrified and ran away in a hurry, but they were no match for the monster and were caught up in a flash, then brutally trampled to death.]

[Then a group of armed men arrived and immediately opened fire on the monster. ] [The incredible result was that the bullets could not penetrate the monster's body at all, and even the rockets used later could not cause much damage to the monster. ]

[Instead, this group of armed men were brutally crushed and massacred! ]

[Finally, the task force arrived and used laser weapons to penetrate the monster and destroy it.]

[After this phenomenon occurred, senior leaders immediately arranged several experiments to study the principle of how the light ball turned people into monsters.]

[After many experiments, although I still don’t understand the specific principles, I have figured out the general process. ]

[First of all, the Lovecraft pendant is not so much a treatment as it is an optimization of the biological system. After being exposed to the light ball for ten minutes, the resistance of the treated person to disease and poisoning will increase by 500%. If it takes at least 15 minutes, the resistance will increase to 1000%. After 15 minutes of exposure, the muscle system will evolve on its own, increasing its strength and pain tolerance by 200%-300%. All other systems continue to evolve in a "biological singularity". ]

[The reason why the previous tester turned into such a monster is because the light ball promoted the evolution of his biological system. If he continues to be exposed to the light ball, he will continue to evolve. We really can't imagine what he will evolve into. ]

[We call the monster evolved from Lovecraft's pendant the Flesh Beast. ]

[The flesh beasts are highly aggressive and will attack anyone within sight with fatal results. They are resistant to most known weapons, but will be severely thermally shocked at 1100 degrees Celsius (2000 degrees Fahrenheit). Their intelligence level cannot be accurately determined, but for complete mutants, mapping of the biological brain and other biological system optimizations indicates that their IQ may exceed 400. ]

[Moreover, the appearance of the evolved flesh and blood beast is uncontrollable. The way it evolves and the appearance it becomes are completely illogical, and the direction of evolution cannot be controlled at all.]

[Afterwards, the experimenters checked the bodies of the patients who had received treatment but had not turned into flesh and blood beasts, and found that their biological systems had returned to normal.]

[It seems that before evolving into a flesh and blood beast, if you stop being irradiated by the light ball, after a period of time, your biological system will return to the level of a normal person. However, once you become a flesh and blood beast, you can never change back. This is a discovery.]

[There was a heated debate among the top management on whether to continue using the Lovecraft Pendant for treatment. Although there were many people who held opposing views, there were still many people who felt that since current medical technology could not fully treat every injury and there was not enough panacea, the Lovecraft Pendant could still serve as a temporary substitute.]

[As long as the time is monitored well, the risks can be avoided. So in short, the containment committee knows the risks of Lovecraft's pendant and allows it to continue to be used to treat others. ]

[That is, when using it, you must abide by the relevant rules. Users must report the total exposure time and accept third-party supervision to avoid the risk of mutation. ]

When the video plays to this point, all the information about Lovecraft's pendant has been explained.

Many people were surprised.

Banner: No way! This can heal people, but it can also turn people into monsters, which is a bit like my situation.

Natasha: No, it's different. At least you can still keep your sanity. Switching between the two is irreversible.

Moroboshi Tuan: I knew the containment couldn't be that simple. It turns out to be dangerous!
Chopper: No way, I thought this really was a panacea, but it turned out to create a monster!

Dragon: It can create monsters that are stronger than humans and can ignore a large number of thermal weapons. This is probably the real function of this pendant. Treatment is just a small incidental function.

Whitebeard: Hey, hey, if we don't handle this well, won't we mass-produce an army of monsters?
