Chapter 193: The Truth That Is About to Be Revealed
Do you still remember that one of Jiang Nan's three major courses in the unified school district is called home economics? The purpose of this course is not to raise Jiang Nan's housekeeping level to a high level, but to use the power of runes in various housekeeping subjects to achieve the effect of exercise.
Now in the kitchen, Jiang Nan is performing a dazzling cooking show.
It can be said that in the process of cooking, except for the luminous plants that are used as raw materials taken from the square, everything else is left from Jiang Nan's own ability. The blazing fire came from the shining [fire] character on Jiang Nan's left hand, and even the translucent pot was composed by Jiang Nan with the power of the earth, mountains and rivers.
Looking at the glowing dishes in the pot, Jiang Nan felt that he felt a little bit like a little Chinese master, and the glowing cuisine was simply too cool.
Of course, in fact, this dish is just blanched wild vegetables, and in the absence of seasonings, the taste of this dish can only be determined by the characteristics of the ingredients themselves.
Of course, Jiang Nan doesn't need to make delicious dishes to trigger the next plot. After casually eating some glowing leaves, Jiang Nan felt a slight calming of hunger in his stomach.
Fei Xiaolin, who also ate a bowl of blanched wild vegetables, put down the rice bowl in her hand and finally couldn't help but ask Jiangnan: "I also ate the vegetables, what are we going to do next?" ”
Regarding Fei Xiaolin's question, Jiang Nan replied without thinking: "You don't have to do anything, as long as you wait patiently for half a day, there will be results." ”
"Are you just waiting?" Regarding Jiang Nan's answer, Fei Xiaolin asked a little impatiently.
"Don't wait. During this time, you can do whatever you want, such as going to the library and reading books. Check out some information about the city. Putting down the bowl in his hand, Jiang Nan thought about it and said to Fei Xiaolin. At the end, he added, "It's better not to go too far away from yourself alone." ”
Although Jiang Nan did not clearly tell Fei Xiaolin what might happen next, Fei Xiaolin also judged from Jiang Nan's series of actions that Jiang Nan was actively preparing for the war.
So Fei Xiaolin, who chose Jiang Nan, went directly into the library and looked at the pile of books on the table.
"Then let me see if what happens next is as I guessed." Looking at the back of Fei Xiaolin leaving, Jiang Nan muttered to himself silently, and then Jiang Nan, who also got up and walked out of the house. Decide to artificially speed up the progress of the event.
Ten minutes later, carrying a basket that I don't know where to turn out, Jiang Nan began to pick edible luminous plants on a large scale in the city's flower beds. Soon, Jiang Nan, who was full of physical strength, filled a basket of leaves.
"I've done it all, so how long will you endure it?" In the direction of the center of the city, Jiang Nan muttered to himself.
Rumble!
Suddenly, a loud bang rang out in the plaza outside the library, for this sudden change. Jiang Nan didn't show the slightest surprise: "Is it finally here?" Hurriedly put the basket full of edible luminescent plants on his back to the ground, and Jiang Nan ran towards the square.
And Fei Xiaolin in the library was after hearing a loud noise. Rushed out from the inside as soon as possible, as in his mother's exploration log. It was a loud bang that Zuihou had recorded, whether or not the loud noise she heard now was the same as what his parents had heard. Fei Xiaolin rushed out of the library management as if she had grasped an important clue.
When Jiang Nan ran to the square, the first thing that came into his eyes was a green giant about four or five meters tall, and then the green vines dancing wildly at the feet of the green giant.
Unlike Jiang Nan's calmness after seeing this giant, Fei Xiaolin linked the disappearance of his parents to this monster the moment he ran out of the library and saw this monster.
"You monster! Give my mom and dad back! Armed! After a roar, Fei Xiaolin launched a charge towards the green giant, and in the process of charging, Jiang Nan found that the mountaineering bag that had been carried by Fei Xiaolin on her back suddenly exploded with her roar, and those seemingly ordinary tools in this backpack were skillfully put together around Fei Xiaolin one by one.
By the time Fei Xiaolin ran up to the green monster, she had turned into a warrior covered in armor with 90% of her body, and she leaped towards the green giant's head.
To be honest, Jiang Nan was not too surprised by Fei Xiaolin's performance. Although Fei Xiaolin's role along the way is mainly manifested in professional knowledge, it does not mean that she does not have the ability to fight, seeing that she showed good combat effectiveness with the blessing of that set of armor, Jiang Nan slowly decided to take a look at the strength of this green giant, because Jiang Nan knew that this big green guy should be just the beginning, and this opponent should not be in earnest.
Fei Xiaolin, who was desperate to get news from the other party, did not attack with the intention of killing the other party with one move, so Fei Xiaolin's first blow was not aimed at the head of the green giant, but at the opponent's right shoulder.
Click!
Hearing the sound of the metal bracket crashing, a large number of sharp blades popped out of Fei Xiaolin's body, and then these sharp blades stirred like a chainsaw.
Burst!
Fei Xiaolin, who hit the green giant's right shoulder. After grinding a large piece of green "meat", the green giant's right arm was broken at the shoulder, and Fei Xiaolin fell to the ground steadily, and at this time, her whole body armor was covered with green juice.
From beginning to end, whether this green giant appeared or was broken by Fei Xiaolin, it quietly did not say a word.
Whoa!
Under the gaze of Jiang Nan and Fei Xiaolin, a large number of green vines erupted violently from the wound on the right arm of this big green guy, which was originally broken at the shoulder level. Then it quickly twisted together and turned into a new right arm.
This guy wasn't a giant, but a mondestrum of vines held together.
The green giant silently raised its arms. Unlike Fei Xiaolin's subordinates who showed mercy just now, this big green guy directly smashed his hands hard at Fei Xiaolin who was standing on the ground.
Although there is no amazing whistling. But this blow still gave Fei Xiaolin, who didn't have much combat experience, a lot of oppression.
"Arm Knife Slash!" Facing the blow of the green giant's Taishan, Fei Xiaolin shouted in a panic, and then saw that all the sharp blades that were originally all over her body were retracted, and then on her right arm, a huge three-meter-long blade composed of many small blades popped up.
Flutter!
The sharp blade slashed the green giant in half from the bottom up diagonally before the opponent's fist fell. And Fei Xiaolin, who had completed this blow, seemed to have consumed a lot of physical strength, and stumbled with a vague step.
The green giant, whose waist had been cut off, fell to the ground with a bang, but the thorns that had been scattered in the form of vines at the green giant's feet from the beginning. At this moment, it turned into an overwhelming long whip and rolled towards Fei Xiaolin.
In the face of such an attack, Fei Xiaolin hurriedly dissolved the giant blade on his right arm, and then once again spread the blades all over his body, crushing all the thorny vines that were close to him.
"It seems that relying only on one or two green giants will not pose much of a threat to Fei Xiaolin." As if to confirm what Jiang Nan said, soon the vines in this land were cut down by Fei Xiaolin.
Walking to Fei Xiaolin's side, Jiang Nan squatted down and pinched the strength and toughness of the vines on the ground with his hands, then got up and asked Fei Xiaolin, "Do your parents also have armor like yours?" How does the strength compare to you? ”
For Jiang Nan's question. Fei Xiaolin replied without thinking about it: "This armor is a lineage of our family, and my parents' strength is naturally much stronger than mine." And after Fei Xiaolin answered Jiang Nan's question, she immediately said to Jiang Nan: "Jiang Nan, can you tell me now, what did you think of before?" Those vines just now should all be ......"
"That's right, it's all controlled by the city tree." Jiang Nan took Fei Xiaolin's words. Deep voice.
"Weishenme, that little imp is going to do this! We weren't hostile to him, and he hadn't attacked us in the first place. ”
Regarding what Fei Xiaolin said, Jiang shook his head and said to Fei Xiaolin: "It shouldn't be that little ghost." It's the city tree that wants to attack us. ”
As an excellent explorer of ruins, Fei Xiaolin is naturally not a stupid person. From Jiang Nan's words, she naturally heard that there was something in Jiang Nan's words.
"It's not that imp, it's the city tree. Is there any difference between them? Fei Xiaolin asked Jiang Nan this question.
Regarding Fei Xiaolin's question, Jiang Nan was not very sure, and said with some uncertainty: "So far, I have only guessed that it should be the instinct of the city tree that attacked us this time, not the personified ghost." ”
"And what you did before has anything to do with them attacking us?" Thinking of what Jiang Nan had done before, Ferena continued to ask.
"That's to confirm whether your parents were attacked for reasons I guessed, and judging from the current situation, it means that I guessed correctly." At first, this sentence was answering Fei Xiaolin's question, but when it came to Zuihou, it turned into a self-talk, with a contemplative expression on his face.
After hearing Jiang Nan's words, Fei Xiaolin didn't care if Jiang Nan was thinking about any key issues, and hurriedly asked, "What reason?" ”
"Remember what the temporary personality of the shijie tree said before? He first said, 'As the city's energy reserves are getting less and less, I have turned off a lot of unnecessary functions, don't say if there have been outsiders in the past four years, you just ask me if there were outsiders yesterday and I don't know', and then he said, 'Actually, my body and consciousness were born temporarily after you entered this city, and when you leave, I will disappear, and the memory of my contact with you this time will also disappear, and then my body will only have the instinct to maintain the operation of this city.'" After repeating what the shijie tree had said, Jiang Nan paused as if to digest the specific meanings contained in these two sentences for Fei Xiaolin, and then continued to explain.
From these two sentences, we can get a lot of important information, first of all, the most important one is that the city's reserve energy is running out, and then in order to reduce consumption, he even turned off the function of maintaining his own experience memory, zuihou is to maintain the city's instinct is the first priority. These are all things that you and I both know, and then there are some words that it told me after I asked the City Tree alone when you were in a hurry to run to the library. ”
Jiang Nan raised his finger as he spoke, "He told me that in the records of urban maintenance four years ago, there was data on abnormal consumption, what is abnormal consumption, that is, the energy required to maintain the normal operation of the city in this area has increased, so you said that in order to reduce energy consumption, the number of cities that have even turned off their own memory function will be driven by instinct to eliminate the cause of abnormal consumption?" ”
For Jiang Nan's question, the answer is undoubtedly yes, Fei Xiaolin has already understood what Jiang Nan said, and then she thought about Jiang Nan's previous behavior and asked with some uncertainty and even incomprehension: "Could it be that the so-called consumption anomaly is those wild vegetables?" ”
"Although I can't understand it, but it's true, according to your mother's diary, they did pick edible luminescent plants, and I did the same thing to confirm this, and in order to get the shijie tree to shoot as soon as possible, I specially increased the number of collections, and as you can see, they just made a move." Jiang Nan proved that his guesses were all correct with practical actions.
In the face of Jiang Nan's answer, Fei Xiaolin was simply a little incompatible, her parents rarely picked some wild vegetables, but they were unexpected, how can this kind of thing be accepted!
"With those vines, how could it be my parents' opponents, and they might have escaped from here! Jiang Nan, are you right? ”
"If you want to know the truth, then the only way is to go to the town hall and talk to that shijie tree." Glancing at the tower in the center of the city, Jiang Nan said to Fei Xiaolin. (To be continued......)
