Chapter 192: Two Choices (One Update)
Planet Pandora, at the portal.
"Hehehe, finally extracted this woman's memory." A mysterious man in a black robe with a candle in his hand looked at the two Na'vi corpses on the ground and let out a hoarse laugh.
"Soon, that soul tree will be ours! Haha! ”
The man in black raised the candle in his hand and said loudly: "As long as you get that soul tree, this planet ......"
Boom!
Before the man in black could finish speaking, a palm gently tapped on her head.
"Ahh The man in black hurriedly covered his head, raised his head and looked at Xia Xuan next to him with an aggrieved expression.
Xia Xuan said: "Goddess, don't be weird, do you know where their tribe is?" ”
Just now, the Goddess of Knowledge No. 2 probed all the memories of this female Na'vi, and there was no specific location of the soul tree itself in her memory. According to the memories of the Na'vi people, there was a place called the Holy Land, which was supposed to be the location of the Soul Tree itself.
But very few people know about this position, among the Na'vi tribes. The only person who knows the exact location of the shrine is Sasin, who is in charge of the sacrifice, that is, Natiri's mother.
In the original book, due to the destruction of the Na'vi people's homeland tree by humans, they only went to the Holy Land to take refuge in the moment of life and death. In other words, even if a sacrifice is held in a normal time, it is only held in the nearby Soul Forest.
Although Natiri did not have the location of the Soul Tree itself, it did not have much impact on them, and at most it only extended the time for them to find the Soul Tree itself. Now all they have to do is find the Na'vi tribe and then grab Sasin from the tribe and extract her soul and memories.
"Oh." The Goddess of Knowledge threw her black cloak back into the dimensional phalanx and replied, "Although we have obtained her memories, we do not have the exact location of the Homestead Tree in our memories, and we have only obtained information on the roads or landmarks near the Homestead Tree. ”
The goddess guessed that the reason why these Na'vi people were able to pinpoint the location of the home tree. They mainly rely on their extremely developed nervous system to sense the direction of the home tree through a biological network. ”
Xia Xuan opened his mouth and asked, "So the only way for us now is to rely on her memory, go back to the grove where the red pupil grabbed them, and slowly search for them according to the memory?" ”
"Hmph, don't be so troublesome, this goddess has a better way." The corners of the goddess of knowledge's mouth turned up slightly, and she raised the candle in her hand and pointed to the white fire on the candle.
"Your Majesty, look at this, this white flame above is her remnant. Although the soul has become broken due to the search of memory, there is still a little instinct preserved. And for the Na'vi, going home is an instinct. ”
"In that case, let's go and find their tribe." Xia Xuandao.
Xia Xuan, Red Pupil, No. 2, and the Goddess of Knowledge rose into the air, and under the guidance of the special candle made by the Goddess of Knowledge, they flew in a certain direction.
At the same time, Goddess of Knowledge 2 uses magic to send out a special wave that transmits to all directions.
The planet doesn't know if it's due to the magnetic field or the ghost of the Soul Tree, and the radio signal is always interrupted inexplicably, which also makes most of SecFor's radar unusable. However, this phenomenon can only affect the communication equipment and reconnaissance equipment on the scientific side, and there is no obstacle to magic.
Silent fluctuations swept across the land, plains, and primeval forests. The Bloodborne, who were rapidly advancing on the planet Pandora, suddenly stopped, raised their heads and looked up at the sky with scarlet eyes.
Buzz~
After a few seconds, the Bloodborne confirmed the direction of the wave through the Bloodborne, and immediately changed their path and headed for a certain place.
……
The planet Pandora, the towering tree of home.
Click!
A huge vertical transport aircraft flew from a distance, escorted by a dozen gunships. On a large helicopter gunship, Colonel Myers couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the tree, which was several hundred meters high.
"This tree is really big, and it should be a first-class protected plant on the earth."
At this time, the driver next to him spoke: "Colonel Myers, there is still one minute to reach the destination." ”
Colonel Miles opened the general communication and ordered, "Alright, guys, get ready to get to work, aim all incendiary bombs at the main entrance, and send this group of blue monkeys to me to meet their Eva." ”
Inside the Homestead Tree, the Na'vi who heard the sound ran out in droves. Seeing the steel monster flying in the distance, he raised his weapon in the slightest and let out a threatening cry.
At this moment, the Na'vi were still unaware of the gap between them and the humans, thinking that they could achieve victory after victory as before. As Parker, the head of SecFor, put it, he did so mildly, so mildly that the horde was still in the tribal age and the wildlings thought they could defeat the humans.
Click!
The low-altitude disc of SecFor's aircraft spun over the heads of the Na'vi people, and the huge wind and waves from the plane's propellers roared, crushing the verdant weeds on the ground.
The people of Na'vi looked at the planes in the sky, not the slightest fear, but a little ready to move. It is not known whether they are fearless bravery, or ignorant bravery.
"Prepare your bow and arrows!" The tribal chief raised the strangely shaped wooden staff in his hand and shouted.
Countless blue-skinned Na'vi put their arrows on the bowstring, then pulled away with force the steel monster aimed at the sky.
"Attack!"
Following the command of the tribal chieftain, the Na'vi let go of the arrows in their hands. The next moment, hundreds of arrows flew out, flying into the sky of the steel monster.
Woohoo!
Dangdang!
The arrow slammed into the thick steel plate of the plane, making a crisp sound, and then bounced off without any suspense. These tremendous insights did not cause any damage to the plane, not even a trace could be left.
Colonel Miles looked at the group of blue monkeys below dressed like savages and sneered, "Hey, hey, is this a welcome ceremony?" It's really warm. ”
"Since they've welcomed us so warmly, we should also respond to their enthusiasm, guys, show your enthusiasm, Molotov cocktails."
Colonel Miles looked down at the Na'vi who kept shooting arrows at them with cold eyes, and said coldly, "Fire!" ”
As soon as the voice fell, all the drivers pressed the launch button.
Woohoo!
At some point, an incendiary grenade flew out, dragging its white tail and landing on the green grass below. The Na'vi saw something flying towards them and subconsciously dodged.
Boom!
Falling to the ground, it burned until it exploded in an instant, and the raging fire swept away the surroundings, igniting the green grass and fire. The verdant grass instantly turned a fiery red, and one Na'vi danced on the fiery lawn.
"Ahhh Some of the Na'vi who were in the center of the incendiary bomb's range were instantly enveloped in flames, and their blue skin had an extra touch of orange.
The Na'vi, who had been brave and fearless a moment ago, began to flee in all directions, and the bravery and strength of their bodies that they had been boasting about were so unbearable under the raging fire.
The Na'vi people thought that the gap between themselves and humans was not large, and even in their eyes, humans were a group of cowardly creatures who could not even breathe. The Na'vi, on the other hand, are valiant and skilled in war, able to tame horses and dragons, and able to hunt creatures that are more than ten times larger than their own size.
At the same time, the Na'vi people maintain due respect for the great nature and all species. It's not like this group of stubborn, despicable human beings who destroy this beautiful and great nature for the sake of those stones. Even yesterday he cut down the mother of all things, the doppelganger of Eva.
Woohoo!
Bang bang bang!
Another wave of incendiary bombs rained down from the sky, the flames became more intense, and more and more Na'vi were ignited.
Faced with what they call a despicable and cowardly human attack, the valiant Na'vi fled in all directions. Their usual strength has become the ability to escape in this flame.
At this moment, they realized the gap between themselves and humanity, a gap between heaven and earth, a gap that even the Eva they believed in could not bridge.
The flames are burning the tree of their homeland, the great nature in their mouths, and the pride they have always had.
On the plane, Colonel Miles looked at the Na'vi people who were burned by the raging fire below, showed a smile, and said, "Fire roasted blue monkeys, not bad." ”
All the mercenaries on the plane don't have the slightest mercy for the group of blue monkeys below, and if there are humans below, they might be a little soft-hearted, but this is just a group of aliens. The reason why their mercenaries didn't kill all the blue monkeys who often came to make trouble before was not because they didn't want to kill, but because they weren't allowed to do so.
I really think that we humans are some kind race, and during the colonial expansion, I don't know how many races were wiped out by humans. Since you are in the way, you are not left behind.
Even if the matter was later discovered, they did not break the law. Because it was the blue monkeys who were the first to attack, they were now just defending themselves.
Fear, panic, wailing, weeping, all the expressions and emotions that the Na'vi had previously despised were now played out on them.
This is the real interstellar age, a paradise for the strong and a hell for the weak.
At this time, several figures slowly descended from above and stopped dozens of meters above the group of planes.
The goddess of knowledge looked at the raging fire below and said, "It's burning." ”
Xia Xuan turned his head to the Goddess of Knowledge No. 2 and ordered, "No. 2 extinguished the flames below. ”
Xia Xuan didn't want to save the Na'vi people below, but he was afraid that the flames would burn the Na'vi people to death. If this happens, Xia Xuan will have no way to quickly find the body of the soul tree, so he can only open the portal and let a large number of people enter the planet Pandora for a carpet search.
"Hmm." The Goddess of Knowledge No. 2 had a thought, and the majestic magic power in her body poured out. Immediately after that, a large magic array with a radius of 1 kilometer in the sky instantly formed, enveloping the huge homeland tree.
"Water Flow."
Swish!
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge column of water 500 meters wide fell from the sky and smashed heavily on the tree of his home.
Bang bang bang!
The thick branches and leaves of the homestead tree began to break inch by inch under the impact of the pillar-like current, and countless leaves broke away. The 500-meter-wide water column began to spread out in all directions due to the huge canopy block of the home tree, forming a semi-circular water cover that slowly fell.
Woohoo!
The raging flames were quickly extinguished in front of the column of water that fell from the sky, and a large amount of white smoke began to rise, and the Na'vi people looked at the sudden column of water with a bewildered expression.
SecFor's helicopter gunship began to sway under the sudden water jet, and even one of the gunships was directly photographed by the water jet.
"Stand back! Get out of here! ”
Faced with the sudden change, the pilots immediately recovered from their panic and drove the plane backwards.
A helicopter gunship piloted the plane and tried to retreat, but suddenly noticed that the plane was flying instead of going backwards, but began to fall.
"Damn, what's going on! Could it be that the water ingress is faulty? ”
The helicopter gunship is indeed waterproof, and there will be no problems even in the event of heavy rain. But there is also a limit to waterproofing, and the water column dozens of meters wide just now didn't slap him to the ground.
A couple of the hapless gunships have now fallen to the ground, and they haven't survived much better. At this moment, the propellers of most of the gunships have been deformed to a certain extent under the impact of the huge water column just now.
In the sky, Xia Xuan looked at the mess below, pulled the corners of his mouth, and was speechless.
Is this a current? This scene is like the scene of the legendary Nuwa mending the sky. Such a huge column of water rushed down from the sky, and the impact caused by it was too much for even a helicopter gunship to bear.
At the moment below the helicopter gunship of the company SecFor, there are already 3 four down. The Na'vi people did not suffer much impact because they stood under the tree of their homeland, and of course, some of the Na'vi who had escaped were directly killed by the water column that fell from the sky.
"No. 2, let's get rid of the rest of the gunships." Xia Xuandao.
"Hmm." Goddess of Knowledge No. 2 nodded, raised her right hand and pressed it down gently.
Splatter!
Another stream of water more than 500 meters wide fell from the sky, enveloping the helicopter gunship that had just escaped.
Syllable!
The helicopter gunship, which had just escaped from danger, was directly slapped on the ground like a human swatting a flying insect. The huge impact force directly caused the plane to disintegrate, and the mercenaries inside were not spared.
Xia Xuan turned his head to look at the red pupil and asked, "Red pupil, how many blood-sourced people have arrived nearby now?" ”
Red Hitomi glanced at the number of LAN channels in the same tactical helmet, and then replied: "26 people." ”
"You go down and clean up the surviving humans, and then lead the people in this direction all the way, you should be able to find their base and wipe out everyone inside." Xia Xuan ordered.
Coming to the Homestead Tree with a reference, according to Natiri's memory, Xia Xuan basically figured out the location of the SecFor company's base.
"Yes!" Red Hitomi turned and flew towards the spot where the gunship had fallen.
Xia Xuan set his eyes on the Na'vi people below, and began to look for the Na'vi people wearing red silk threads.
A few seconds later, Xia Xuan saw two brightly dressed Na'vi people, who were supposed to be the Chief and Sassin.
Below, the Na'vi looked at the humans standing in the sky with a look of horror.
If even if these humans could fly before that, it would be nothing more than that for them, and the heroic Na'vi had nothing to fear. But the flames and water had shattered their pride, and now their attitude towards humanity had become both hateful and fearful.
In the original book, the so-called non-acceptance of any conditions, even death will not allow humans to destroy nature, but when it comes to death, few people will not have the slightest fear, this is the survival instinct of living beings.
Perhaps at first they did have the courage to fight for the natural ecology of Pandora, but after a life and death experience, their faith began to waver.
The tribal chief turned to look at his wife next to him and asked, "Eva's messenger?" ”
If it had been before, the tribal chiefs would not have believed that humans would be messengers of Eva. But there is already one in front, and it is also very hot with his daughter, so it is not surprising that there are three more.
"Nope." Sasin shook his head, looking at the humans who were flying towards him with a hostile gaze.
"Eva told me just now that they are Eva's enemies and must be eliminated."
Xia Xuan and the three of them slowly fell onto the scorched lawn, and the surrounding Na'vi people picked up the weapons in their hands and looked at the three humans vigilantly.
Xia Xuan set his eyes on the two brightly dressed Na'vi people, and said in English: "Two choices, the first is to submit to Great Xia and become a part of Great Xia, and the second is to perish. ”
The Na'vi are an excellent race, both mentally and physically. With a little training, a large number of excellent warriors or scientists can be created, and it is a race worthy of cultivation in Great Xia.
And most importantly, they have an extremely developed nervous system and a neural interface that can connect to the soul tree, and can download and upload memories from the soul tree. This alone is very valuable for research, and it is certainly better for the subject to be alive.
Since it is beneficial to Great Xia, Xia Xuan is willing to give them a chance to choose. There is only one chance, and if they don't grasp it, what awaits them will be their destruction.
They are not the only Na'vi tribe on the planet Pandora, this tribe is unwilling to submit to Great Xia, and Great Xia will not bother to win their trust. Just destroy it and replace it with another tribe, there will always be one who will agree.
It doesn't matter if all the tribes are unwilling to submit to Great Xia, Great Xia can take them back and keep them as slaves. Let them quickly reproduce the next generation, and then dispose of them.
The new generation of Na'vi people, under the cultivation of Great Xia, is more reliable than these Na'vi people who joined halfway and still believed in the Soul Tree. And Great Xia didn't have to spend too much effort to assimilate them.
This may sound like a very evil method, but it is the most efficient and correct way to do it.
