Chapter 858: Chapter 352: Making Wild Claims_2 Chapter 858: Chapter 352: Making Wild Claims_2 The true Destroyer had not left; he was within this exoskeleton armor. Because wherever the Destroyer was, that mysterious combat aircraft would appear. Having just seen the god-level fighter jet, Tripitaka instantly understood that the person inside the armor was the real Destroyer.

However, Tripitaka quickly realized that since the Destroyer had appeared here, he had saved himself a lot of trouble, and he could now capture the Destroyer without letting the High Priest take the credit. Moreover, the Destroyer had just emerged from the cave, and there must be a connection between him and the strong electromagnetic signal detected earlier, which also related to the secret of some key items. So, even though he couldn't obtain the key items now, he could still get clues about them from the Destroyer.

After grasping the crucial issue, Tripitaka didn't immediately attack the Destroyer but laughed loudly instead, “Destroyer, you can't escape.”

Yan Fei, using the voice of the Destroyer, also laughed loudly, “Tripitaka, I have just discovered a great secret in the cave below. Do you want to know what it is?”

Seeing that Yan Fei didn't deny his identity, Tripitaka immediately knew his guess was correct; the person before him was the Destroyer. He also wanted to know what the great secret below was, thus he played along, “What great secret?”

Yan Fei spoke, “I just found out that the Ebola virus that has been ravaging the African continent for many years actually leaked from a flying vehicle of a prehistoric civilization below.”

Tripitaka said, “What of it?”

Yan Fei replied, “The special medicine produced by Dream Island is only effective against the Ebola virus strain that has leaked out, it is helpless against the most original strain of the Ebola virus.”

A flicker of unease crossed Tripitaka's mind as he asked, “What do you mean by that?”

Yan Fei elaborated, “The earthquake and volcanic eruption that just happened caused the container carrying virus samples in this flying vehicle to break. In other words, the most original strain of the Ebola virus has already leaked out. Those strains of the Ebola virus that leaked out many years ago have undergone significant mutations, so in essence, they are different from the original version of the Ebola virus. The special medicine from Dream Island is effective against the mutated strain of the Ebola virus, but it is ineffective against the original strain. Once a human is infected with the original strain of the Ebola virus, death is certain.”

Tripitaka's face turned pale. He was currently hanging above the flying vehicle, and he had no protective equipment whatsoever. If the original version of the Ebola virus had indeed been released, he might already be infected with it. Just like Yan Fei said, he had taken the special medicine for the Ebola virus from Dream Island, which is why he dared to enter the epidemic area without any protective equipment. But if what the Destroyer had said was true and an outbreak of the original strain of the Ebola virus had occurred here, then wasn't his life in danger?

Then, Tripitaka suddenly had a moment of realization and scoffed, “Destroyer, I almost believed what you said. You've only been down there for a few minutes, and by the look of you, you wouldn't be carrying detection equipment with you. How would you know there's Ebola virus inside the flying vehicle? Even if it really contained the Ebola virus, how would you know if it's lethal to infected humans?”

Yan Fei burst out laughing, “Tripitaka, your point is very valid. But you know nothing of my abilities; of course, I have ways to understand the dangers of the original Ebola virus. Very well! I will let you see for yourself what the original strain of the Ebola virus is like.”

Then, a transparent glass device appeared in Yan Fei's hand, containing half a tube of a strange blue liquid that gently swirled with the movements of Yan Fei's body.

Yan Fei raised the glass device in his hand, “Tripitaka, this glass device is what I took from the flying vehicle below. It contains the original strain of the Ebola virus. As for whether it can truly kill an infected human, you'll find out for yourself!”

After speaking, Yan Fei hurled the glass device with force. The device tumbled through the air, flying towards the stone wall above Tripitaka. Tripitaka was skeptical and, although not fully believing Yan Fei's claim, he couldn't gamble with his own life. With no protective measures whatsoever, if the glass device truly contained the original strain of the Ebola virus, he couldn't be sure he'd emerge unscathed.

So, when he noticed the glass device about to smash violently against the stone wall above him, Tripitaka suddenly exploded into action. His body shot upward as if teleporting, appearing above the stone wall. He stretched out his arm, ready to catch the glass device before it could hit the stone wall and shatter.

But then something eerie happened. Just as Tripitaka's fingertips were about to touch the glass device, it suddenly exploded. The glass device shattered to pieces, and the blue liquid inside splashed out in all directions. Tripitaka was shocked; he hadn't anticipated the glass device would self-destruct. However, his reflexes were swift, he immediately pushed off the stone wall, performing a free fall toward the magma lake below, thus avoiding the splash of the blue liquid.
