Perhaps it was because of Shengjia's rare honesty that the people who were most likely to refute her chose to shut up. However, just as she was about to continue to speak freely, Shengjia was interrupted by Father Ann raising his hand, "Let's talk the rest as we go, the temperature here is really not suitable for any further stay." Maybe this temperature isn't a problem for you, but the rest of us are still flesh and blood after all. ”

"It dropped from room temperature to below zero so quickly, and it seems that the energy is flowing much faster than I expected. You're right, Father, we really need to leave immediately. ”

After saying this, Shengjia immediately turned around and waved his hand directly above their heads, and the milky white pillars of light completely enveloped them.

Another emotionless chime in Shengjia's tone rang in their ears: "The Leap System is activated... Start confirming coordinates... Start checking the number of people... The turnaround begins, counting down - three, two, one... Warn... Energy shortage... Do you want to cancel? ”

"No, use the backup energy, there is no going back anyway."

Shengjia's behavior of vetoing himself made Yu Siqi feel very weird, but before they could fully react, a huge pulling force directly blurred his vision, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had appeared outdoors and was slumping to the ground in a very strange posture.

Yu Siqi, who got up from the snow, subconsciously looked around. Fortunately, the others were in a similar situation to him, and they all fell to the ground. While helping each other, Yu Siqi couldn't help but look at the sky in the distance and found that it had already revealed a trace of white belly, and it seemed that the sun would come out soon.

After everyone confirmed that they were okay with each other, Wan Jie took a look at the surroundings and said, "It seems that Shengjia has indeed not left her nest for many years, and there are dozens of miles between here and the armory. There shouldn't be such a huge deviation in the case of AI. ”

"She said that the problem was not her, and although she could not give a reasonable explanation, you should not continue to slander her."

William, who poked his head out of the snow, spat out the core again and opened his mouth to speak.

"I'm probably half as good as her when it comes to making excuses. But I'm definitely slightly better than her when it comes to work. ”

Wan Jie mocked with words while muttering a few incantations to the ancient tree next to her.

"What is she doing?"

Gong Chen stared at Wan Jie's back, and asked Father An curiously.

"Casting a spell, a spell that you and I don't understand."

"I have only heard similar pronunciations in some ancient books with unknown records, but I didn't expect to see someone perform it in front of me today, which is really eye-opening," said Fr. Ann thoughtfully. If I'm right, she's probably awakening the ancient tree's consciousness. ”

"Trees are also conscious?"

As soon as Yu Siqi finished asking this question, he noticed that the ground under their feet shook very significantly. When the familiar shaking that seemed like another earthquake gradually stopped, an ancient tree that had been uprooted staggered to its feet. Looking up at the ancient tree, which must be at least a few hundred meters high, the latter seemed to notice their small presence, and a loud and deep voice came from the trunk.

"It was not your wise choice to wake me up, you have deprived me of the protection of my ancestors, little tax collector."

"I need your help, Duran. Besides, I just wanted to ask you to take us to the armory, it shouldn't take up too much of your time. ”

Listening to Wan Jie's words, she seemed to know this ancient tree.

"The soil over there is very poor, and I don't like it."

Duran said angrily.

"It's okay, you just need to take us over and leave. I don't expect you to put down roots in that kind of place. ”

Wan Jie folded her hands and begged.

"I hope so."

After saying this, Duran stretched out several branches to them, and Yu Siqi and the others sent it to the upper part of it, where there happened to be a few intersecting tree trunks that could serve as their foothold. After making sure that none of them had been pulled down, Duran quickly moved at a steady, unusually slow pace.

To be honest, although it is probably the most inked 'vehicle' Yu Siqi has ever seen. But its size is so big that even if it is just a small step slowly, it can be worthy of ordinary people walking for a long time.

If anyone looks this way, they will find that there is a 'lone seedling' that is much taller than the other trees walking slowly through the forest, and every step is so difficult.

"It's hard to imagine that I'm sitting on a tree that can walk and talk."

Gong Chen, whose face was full of excitement, touched the scabs around him, some of which were even several times larger than the grinding disc Yu Siqi had ever seen.

"I'm not a tree, I'm small, my name is Duran."

Duran was obviously able to understand Gong Chen's words, which attracted Father An's attention. The latter asked with some concern: "I take the liberty of asking, why are you able to understand what we are saying?" ”

"Foolish little bit, your language is indeed a bit esoteric, but it is only esoteric. I, Duran, can take the time to understand anything more complex and difficult than this, let alone your language. ”

Duran's words left Father Ann speechless, and the first time he saw a priest was someone else who could be deflated, it was a very new thing. Probably because it was a leisure time, Yu Siqi found a relatively smooth tree trunk, leaned over, and squinted at the priest.

"It's amazing, I can't even find the words to describe the excitement in my heart." In order to avoid too much embarrassment, Father An finally chose the most old-fashioned way, which is to change the subject. In fact, I have to deny that this trick still works quite well most of the time. It's a pity that he seems to have chosen the wrong person this time. Duran's deep voice came from under their feet: "This cliché, I, Duran, have been tired of hearing it many years ago. ”

"Well, it seems that more than just history can be passed down!"

Father Ann muttered with a wry smile and turned his face away. Then, as if doing something, he quickly made a new voice, as if asking everyone and himself, "If I'm not mistaken, we must have been on some island before, right?" ”

"Yes, the huge island, didn't you see a lot of marine life on the coast at that time? Look at your memory, so quickly forget? ”

Gong Chen leaned over to Father Ann and asked, 'What's wrong?' But Father Ann exclaimed because of some of the leaves he had pulled apart: "My God, where is this!" ”

"Any questions?"

Wan Jie, who was attracted to them, also walked over, and she had been sitting there pondering before. Again, "Incredible! ”

Even Yu Siqi couldn't sit still. He gave up the idea of resting against the trunk of a tree, walked quickly to Father Ann and the others, and looked in the direction Father Ann was pointing.
