Chapter 11: O'Hara Scholars
At night, the shadows of the trees are shining. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Nivea was making a quick run to the west shore, having long since changed from beast form to human form, and despite being out of breath, she kept running out of the island.
She only hoped that Taigu, who was using the "Max Wheel Life Enhancement", would last a while and let her leave the island.
The boy named Ye Qiong was mysterious and powerful, comparable to the Navy's six-style combat skills and powerful Devil Fruit abilities, all of which exceeded her expectations.
The fact that this knowledge-revering O'Hara Island has such a powerful inhabitant is information that even the world government has not provided.
"The most important thing is that the other party still knows our identity, and it is estimated that he already knows the purpose of our coming here, so he must get in touch with the boss as soon as possible!"
Nivea thought to herself, but suddenly a figure appeared in front of her, reaching out directly and choking her throat.
Nivea's pupils constricted, and she looked at the familiar face in front of her in horror.
How is it possible to catch up so quickly?!
Nivea was puzzled, fear pouring into her chest and holding it down.
"It's a pity, if you don't leave a space mark in advance, you'll really be allowed to run away."
Ye Qiong's hand clasped her throat and shook her head gently.
Although this island is not big, it is not small, and it is really like looking for a needle in a haystack to find CP9 members who are bent on hiding and escaping.
There can be records of spatial imprints, and Nivea is like a lighthouse, detected by the leaf dome and teleported at will within a certain distance.
Ye Qiong's height at this time was even shorter than Nivea's, and when he raised his hand, he just hung her feet off the ground.
Nivea felt the hand that was clenching her neck with increasing strength, and the strength she had stored up in her body was losing little by little, and death was on the horizon.
She opened her mouth to say something.
"You're a smart woman, I know what you're trying to say, but I know everything, so you're worthless."
Ye Qiong's eyes were indifferent, and he kept exerting force in his hand, clasping the smooth and snow-white neck in his hand.
Soon, Nivea stomped on her feet a few times, and finally she couldn't hang down, and her eyes lost their bright brilliance.
Ye Qiong shook it lightly and threw her body on the ground.
Tonight, two CP9 members are dead!
But there is still much to be done.
Ye Qiong's figure flashed and disappeared from the moonlight.
The Tree of Omniscience.
The moonlight shone silently on the 5,000-year-old tree, and its branches and foliage were luxuriant, casting a large shadow that covered the island.
It was late at night, the residents had already gone to sleep, and the basement of the library of the Tree of All-Knowing was brightly lit. A group of scholars are surrounding a large square stone, studying the strange words on it, or consulting books, or taking notes, with great seriousness.
"Dr. Clover." A middle-aged scholar shouted from the basement doorway.
"Huh?" Dr. Clover stopped his pen and looked up at him suspiciously.
"Someone is looking for you outside the door." The middle-aged scholar hurriedly said.
"It's so late at night, who's going to come to me?" Dr. Clover asked.
"It's the kid in the town, Ye Qiong, he said that you have something urgent to find a doctor."
"Xiaoye...... Okay, I'll go. ”
Dr. Clover nodded, remembering what had happened at noon, and couldn't help but put away his books and leave the basement.
In the library, Ye Qiong sat in a chair and saw Dr. Clover coming up from the basement, got up and said, "I'm sorry to come to you so late, Dr. Clover." ”
"It's okay, you sit." Dr. Clover smiled absently and sat down in the chair next to Ye Qiong, "You must have some doubts here, right?" ”
"No, I'm here tonight in the hope that you'll leave this island tomorrow, Doctor." Ye Qiong shook his head.
"Leave? Why? Dr. Clover was surprised.
"You've probably heard the name Nicole Olvia." Ye Qiongdao.
Dr. Clover's face changed, and then he looked at him a little sadly, "Robin told you that, right?" I'm also sorry about this, her mother went to sea six years ago......"
"Doctor." Ye Qiong shook his head slightly, interrupting his words, "I know that Robin's mother, Olvia, was also one of the thirty-four archaeologists who went to sea to study the historical text. ”
"And she was just arrested by the Navy a few days ago, and I'm sure you already know the news."
Dr. Clover looked at him in shock, and in his eyes was still a child's Ye Qiong, who actually knew everything he intended to hide from Robin.
"I know I can't tell Robin about this, and it's useless for her to know, so I'm here tonight to persuade you to leave, Doctor." Ye Qiongdao.
"Why leave? The world government could not find evidence that O'Hara Island scholars were studying the historical text, and we were still safe. Dr. Clover still shook his head, after so many years of hidden research, he felt that the world government should not act on them at will.
"Doctor, you still don't understand the style of world government. In recent decades, scholars around the world have been searching for traces of historical texts, and how can the world government not be outraged. They are indeed fair and just justice, but your discovery has touched their bottom line.
If the world government needs to make an example of the consequences and need to make an example, O'Hara Island, as an authority on archaeology, will be their primary target! Ye Qiong clenched his fists, his eyes stared directly at him and said seriously.
"You mean ......" Dr. Clover looked at him grimly, his expression full of disbelief and horror.
"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, whether they find real evidence or not, soon the World Government will send a navy to this O'Hara Island to destroy or destroy anything that is not conducive to their rule." Ye Qiong said helplessly, what he said was what was going to happen in the original book, it was by no means a guess, but everything that was about to happen in a few days!
"This ......" Dr. Clover was silent, although these words came out of a child's mouth, which made people feel unreal, but some of the content shown in the text of history in the past few years made him very suspicious of the world government.
Now that Ye Qiongyi said it, he almost believed in the ninth layer!
"Doctor, if you don't leave now, it will be too late for the navy to blockade the island in a few days!" Ye Qiong reminded him.
Dr. Clover was speechless, and after a long time, he got up and beckoned Ye Qiong to follow.
Ye Qiong followed him, leading to the basement.
Walking to the door of the basement, the scholars inside almost all looked at Dr. Clover, and when they saw Ye Qiong standing behind him, they were a little puzzled.
"Everyone, please listen to me." Dr. Clover raised his voice and said with a serious expression, "As you all know, Olvia was arrested the other day. It is likely that the world government will use this as an excuse to come to O'Hara Island to arrest us academics. ”
"Now, I want you to choose to leave the Tree of Omniscience, and leave O'Hara Island as soon as possible tomorrow morning!"
Dr. Clover finished speaking, and the basement fell silent.
"Doctor, are you kidding?" A scholar struggled to squeeze out a smile.
The others remained silent.
"I'm not kidding." Dr. Clover shook his head, his wise eyes shining brightly, "The more I delve into the interpretation of the historical text, the more I discovered many of the problems of the past, and gradually saw through some of the mysteries of the current world government. ”
"Actually, since I started to study the text of history, I have known that there will be such a day, but it is just the length of time. I hope you will leave and save a seed of hope. ”
Dr. Clover couldn't help but bow his head as he said this.
"What about you, Doctor?" Some scholars couldn't help but ask.
"Me?" Dr. Clover raised his head, his eyes turned to the books around him, and his eyes lit up with a burning light, "There are countless historical treasures in the history of human civilization, and my life has taken root here. So, I have nowhere to run, I will live and die with the Tree of Omniscience! ”
Dr. Clover's tone was as firm as iron.
"Doctor, I too would like to live and die with the Tree of All-Knowing!" An aged scholar spoke up.
"I do, too!"
"I'm not leaving, I'm going to protect the rest of humanity's wealth!"
"I will not go away, I will live and die with the Tree of Omniscience, with you!"
The scholars in the basement were all firm at this point, and none of them offered to leave.
"You ......," Dr. Clover roared, his eyes moistened, but he tried to pretend to be angry, "do you know! If you stay, you'll die! ”
"We will live and die with the Tree of Knowledge!"
The scholars did not stop, and the loud voices condensed into an incomparably loud sentence that echoed through the basement.
They were all scholars with no power, but at this moment, Ye Qiong, who was standing outside the door, was infected by their spirit.
In order to find the light of dawn, he is willing to die before dawn.
This is O'Hara Scholars, the only scholars in the world who can answer the question of history. (In fact, there is still the Guangyue family, but it has been lost in Momonosuke's father's generation)
"Xiaoye, we have decided not to leave here." Dr. Clover turned around and apologized to Leaf Dome.
Ye Qiong shook his head and said, "Everyone has their own path to choose, doctor, I admire you, the world should be proud to have a scholar like you." ”
"I'll go first." Ye Qiong turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Dr. Clover.
Dr. Clover retrieved a small bottle from a wooden bookcase in the basement and handed it to him.
It was a very ordinary small glass bottle, with a thumb-sized seed in it, and a yellow embryo with a tender green color, which seemed to be ready to germinate.
"This is the seed of the tree of omniscience! The only one, passed down from my father's generation to the present, I hope you can leave this island with Robin without a hitch. Dr. Clover looked at the glass bottle in Ye Qiong's hand with nostalgia and sighed a little.
Ye Qiong left the library, and Dr. Clover's last words still lingered in his ears.
Hopefully, one day, this seed of wisdom will sprout and grow into an all-knowing tree that bathes in the sun, welcomes the breeze, faces the sea and touches the blue sky!
Ye Qiong let out a long sigh, the clearly cold glass bottle in his hand was scorching and warm at this time, he subconsciously clenched it and left without looking back.
