Chapter 246: The Secret of Lightning
In order to obtain the secrets treasured by Lightning, Zuo Zhe needs to pay something attractive enough. And Lightning's purpose in founding the Immortal Lab is immortality. As for the relationship between the Immortal Lab and Immortal, although it is not yet clear, it is something that Lightning has been working on all along. Until then, Lightning's strategy was to use his own cloning, as well as a brain transplant, to extend his lifespan.
It's a pity that this kind of surgery that acts solely on the body can't solve the problem of the soul. With the aging of the soul and the weakening of the connection between the soul and the body, even if the body is replaced with an identical body, there is only a dead end. Even if you borrow from a long-lived creature like a tortoise, you have to have experimental equipment that can study the soul. It is clear that the research of the Immortal Lab has not yet penetrated to the soul level.
If Zuo Zhe is willing to take out spiritual power-related drugs, he can greatly extend the life of lightning. It's just that once the relevant drugs appear in front of the scientist Lightning, the crucial secrets will be impossible to hide.
If Zuo Zhe is asked to share the secret, it is not impossible. But the premise is that Lightning swears allegiance to Zuo Zhe, of course, not the kind of empty white teeth like a fart.
But will Lightning swear allegiance to Zuo Zhe?
"No way!" was Lightning's answer. Although Lightning desperately desires immortality, if the price of immortality is the loss of freedom, it is definitely not the result that Lightning wants.
Since Lightning refused to be loyal to Zuo Zhe, it was impossible for Zuo Zhe to teach him spiritual power and cultivation methods.
Unable to get enough benefits from Zuo Zhe, Lightning would rather act as a mad scientist, and the secret that he would not give up for decades would naturally not be handed over to Zuo Zhe. In this world, there is a lot of knowledge that can be shared. However, in this world, there is a lot of information that must not be leaked!
"The Immortal Lab has indeed reached the point of exhaustion, otherwise I would not have come to you for help. However, that doesn't mean I'll be loyal to you. If it were just to survive, I could have abandoned the instruments and equipment of the Immortal Laboratory and escaped with only a few elites. But in that case, the Immortal Lab would be ruined, and my dream of immortality would be ruined. ”
In addition to being much younger than Lightning, Lightning's clone has almost the same memory and temperament as Lightning, and can completely replace Lightning's decision-making. Of course, Lightning's clones don't have the core secrets and supreme authority that only Lightning's holds.
"If you can't tolerate me, I can completely hand over the Immortal Laboratory to you, and I will leave the Great King Planetary System with a small number of elites. The Lightning clone said.
"Our Great Wangxing is about to fall under siege by the forces of the five major princes led by Kun Yuanxing and Kun Lanxing. If I can't take your core secret to their territory to sow discord, the Great Kings system is likely to fall. Zuo Zhe used a spell to conjure up a very handsome face, and said the predicament that Da Wangxing was currently encountering.
"I believe that with your strength, you are fully able to cope with the current predicament, but your Excellency is unwilling to uncover the hole cards for this. The lightning clone revealed with a smirk.
It's a matter of their own core interests, and Lightning's clones must fight for it. It's okay to let Lightning come up with the core secret that has been kept for many years, but Zuo Zhe's side must come up with corresponding benefits! For clones who are obviously not the original, Zuo Zhe is useless no matter how strong he is. Even if Zuo Zhe quietly controls the clone in front of him, when the clone returns, it will be detected by multiple detection instruments for abnormalities in the body. Just like Zuo Zhe now, even if he is in his own territory, he needs to use spells to fake his face, or simply wear a fully enclosed armor to meet people. Once the genes leak out, people with good intentions will be able to search for Zuo Zhe's hometown according to Zuo Zhe's genetic characteristics! Even if the earth is not within the territory of the Galaxy Empire, they can also conclude that Zuo Zhe is very likely to be a spy of the Temple of the Gods! If he is judged to be a spy of the Temple of the Gods, then Zuo Zhe will no longer have a place in the Star River Empire.
Therefore, even if Zuo Zhe can pull the earthlings to Daurus in a month, Zuo Zhe must also take precautions to ensure that his genes will not leak out before his own strength is strong enough.
The words of the lightning clone are not wrong, Zuo Zhe will indeed not reveal the hole cards. However, this does not mean that Zuo Zhe cannot uncover the hole cards of Lightning.
"If I'm willing to share that secret, I can lease Erwang to the Immortal Lab for free for fifty years, and I won't charge a penny of taxes on all the profits generated during that period!" Although Diking is just a wild planet. But if you are willing to make efforts to transform, you can still become an ecological planet. After all, Diking is very similar in size to Earth, and its distance from the star is relatively moderate, so it has a lot of potential to become an ecological planet. The reason why Bi-Uranus did not become an ecological planet like Daurus is only because the rulers of Daurus are not willing to pay too much for transformation. In addition, for such a remote place, it is enough to have an ecological planet with Great Uranus.
If Zuo Zhe's rule in the Great King Planetary System is stable, and the civilization of Great King is very advanced, then the conditions given by Zuo Zhe are very attractive. However, the Dawang Planetary System is only a very backward ecological planet in the border region of the Galaxy Empire, and Zuo Zhe has only occupied the Dawang Planetary System for a month or two. Because of the matter of the Tylenol Planetary System, the clone of Lightning did not know if Zuo Zhe would be like the Tylenol Star Time, but he patted his ass and left after staying in the Tylenol Planetary System for less than a month. If that were the case, Zuo Zhe's promise now would be meaningless.
So, will Zuo Zhe be able to gain a firm foothold in the Dawang Planetary System and vigorously develop this place as if it were his home planet? Zuo Zhe's answer is yes, firm, and beyond doubt.
It's a pity that the clone of Lightning doesn't believe this kind of empty white fang's answer. The upper lip of the empty mouth and white teeth touches the lower lip, this kind of promise is no different from farting, who believes and who is stupid!
"There are always some risks to be taken in doing things. Even I don't know what Lightning's secret is or how important it is. However, I have risked nothing to lease to you for fifty years, the second planet to the west after the planet of Great Kings. Zuo Zhe said with a serious expression, saying that he had also taken a lot of risks in this matter.
"If that's true as you say, we need ownership of Erwang, not just a free fifty-year lease! If Lightning's secret is too important, you'll have to raise the price!" said the Lightning clone after pondering for a while, gritting his teeth.
"That's impossible, there's no way I'm going to allow a nation within a state. Moreover, fiefdoms can only be leased outwards in the form of leases. I promise you, if you don't betray me in fifty years, I'll give you the second king a priority!" Zuo Zhe said categorically. No matter how big the universe is, such an opening cannot be opened! If the two kings are acquiesced to being unofficial private territories, then the inhabitants of the two planets will not have any sense of identification with the "official" that Zuo Zhe is planning, but will only consider themselves to be citizens of the two kings! In fact, Zuo Zhe is very disdainful of the political system of the galaxy empire. There is only one thing that can be explained by this backward feudal system of government, that is, the incompetence of the high-level leaders in the core area of the Galaxy Empire! It is no wonder that the princes of the Galaxy Empire would compete with the core division and have such an irresponsible and flawed national policy, if it were not for the powerful foreign enemy of the Temple of the Gods, the Galaxy Empire would have fallen apart long ago and fallen into turmoil such as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period after the Zhou Dynasty!
Facing Zuo Zhe's unquestioning tone, the clone of Lightning didn't say anything more, but looked at the young man who had disguised his face in a daze. From Zuo Zhe's categorical words, the clone of Lightning heard the bottom line and determination of the "tyrant". It was only at this moment that the clone of the lightning understood the hidden meaning of the word "tyrant", similar to the decision of "it is better to be broken than to be whole"!
No compromise!
Uncompromising, on the important and bottom-line issue, Zuo Zhe will never compromise because of setbacks and difficulties. Even in the face of force majeure, Zuo Zhe will only choose to temporarily avoid the edge and wait until he has accumulated enough strength to make a return shot.
"I'll tell Lightning about your conditions. After a long pause, the lightning clone replied.
"Time is of the essence and I hope you can reply quickly. Sending away the clone of Lightning, Zuo Zhe was thinking about other hole cards except for the secret in Lightning's hand.
There are actually a lot of hole cards that can provoke the infighting of the five major princes such as Kun Yuanxing and Kun Lanxing. However, what Zuo Zhe can really get is only the secret of lightning. The other hole cards are too important for Zuo Zhe to be released because of the difficulties encountered at this time. After all, even if Dawangxing was not besieged by the forces of the five major princes, Zuo Zhe would be able to escape in advance and find a place to live in a more remote territory. It's just that doing so has all kinds of disadvantages, which is not conducive to Zuo Zhe's plan for the future.
The lightning clone didn't keep Zuo Zhe waiting long. After meeting again, the Clone of Lightning accepted Zuo Zhe's offer. However, the clone of Lightning has an additional condition.
"Lightning is to be part of the adventure that is about to begin, and you must protect Lightning as much as you can. The Clone of Lightning solemnly stated the conditions of Lightning.
"Adventure, what adventure?" raised his eyebrows, and Zuo Zhe faintly felt a hint of unusualness.
