Suspicious LabReport
English:Suspicious Lab · Locations
An Ancient Lab in the Floodlands overrun by Cannibals. The trail of Ancient Science Books, bread and dried meat on the floor is not luck, it is bait — but it respawns every one to two days, which makes this the most reliable Ancient Science Book source in the game.
The Suspicious Lab is an Ancient Lab in the Floodlands. What was apparently a research facility is now packed with a horde of ravenous Cannibals.
The "suspicious" in the name is not about the architecture. It is about what you see when you walk in.
The breadcrumb trail
Inside, a trail of items runs across the floor — Ancient Science Books, bread, dried meat and assorted goodies — leading up to the Cannibal camp on the second floor.
It did not fall there. It was laid out.
The third floor holds several cages as well as many containers of loot. The cages need no further explanation.
What is here
Besides the bait on the floor, Ancient Science Books can also be found in the locked storage chests on the top level.
The guaranteed artifacts are:
| Item | Quality / Qty | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ancient Science Book | 3 | — |
| Scout Leg | Specialist x2 | one left, one right |
| Combat Cleaver | Catun Scrapmasters No.2 | — |
| Armoured Rag Skirt (coloured) | Masterwork | — |
Artifact values are Gear 25,000 Cats and Item 6,000 Cats, so random weapons and armour spawn on top of the table above.
Why it is worth farming
This is the Suspicious Lab's real value: the breadcrumb loot has a respawn time of only one to two days.
That makes it the best replenishable source of Ancient Science Books in the game. Lost Libraries also spawn them, but at a much lower rate. If you intend to max out high-tier research, a fixed circuit through the Floodlands beats chasing labs across the whole map.
The cost is fighting the residents again every time. Alongside ordinary Cannibals, Cannibal Chiefs spawn here — each has a 50% chance of carrying a 10,000-Cat bounty redeemable with The Holy Nation or the United Cities. Clearing the place pays for itself.
Discovered by
Walking near it marks it automatically. Reading the Old Treasure Map also has a 5% chance of revealing it.
