Chapter 42: Kira's Choice
The eggshell shattered, and Gordon struggled to climb out, he took a deep breath, the air of the Sahara Desert was not as hot as the leaf boat, making his mouth sticky and uncomfortable.
In his hand he held a green test tube, which was encased in a layer of hard metal and was never in danger of leaking.
"Captain Gordon!" Kira waited for a long time at the coordinates where Gordon fell, and when he saw his captain for the first time, he said, "You're here, can I go home?" ”
Gordon didn't expect Kira to be as strong as himself, he stretched out his 3-meter-long arm: "The detector shows that there are too many divine fruits under the desert, I need to find the first divine fruit, it is the mother body of the earth's divine fruit, and only by infecting it can the offspring mutate and destroy." ”
Kira didn't understand the origin of the Divine Fruit, but she had her own feelings: "So you want to destroy the Divine Fruit that I have been guarding for decades?" ”
"It's not about destroying the divine fruit, it's about preserving the entire race." Gordon had long forgotten the coordinates of the first Divine Fruit, all of them were exactly the same, and it was impossible to distinguish them at all, "This is an order, Hatchling!" ”
Kira led Gordon to the Eye of the Sahara and asked, "Captain Gordon, is our hometown more beautiful than here?" ”
"Of course!" Gordon was preoccupied with the Divine Fruit, and as the captain of the ship, he didn't want to pay attention to this chess piece that was far away on Earth, "When I finish the injection, I will take you home." ”
Kira has waited for decades for this sentence, but now her heart is very complicated: "Are there any brothers and sisters in my hometown?" Is there a human-like parent? ”
Gordon froze, and he looked at Kira with an alien look: "The Dune people were born in asexual reproduction, how can they have parents, as for brothers and sisters, everyone is your brother and sister!" ”
"Will they miss me?" Kira's words are increasingly skewed towards earthly human emotions.
There was no need for Gordon to please a small soldier, he roared, "Where is the Mother Divine Fruit?" ”
"Right ahead." Kira pointed to a sand dune where life was boiling, where all kinds of high-tech human equipment stood, and it was by no means something that a strong Dune people could invade, "The first divine fruit is under the dune. ”
"Sasa ......" Gordon couldn't wait, and used his strong arm barb to burrow into the dune, and his slender body quickly got into it.
Kira was surprised, it turned out that her race had such a high mobility ability in the desert, and her own body on the earth had long since degraded.
"Whew......" Gordon quickly emerged from the sand, his hard barb slightly covered with blood, "The bottom has been reinforced by humans, and it is impossible to get in." ”
"The door is over there." Kira pointed to the doorway in the distance, which had been built by the original botanists, "I usually get in from there. ”
Gordon didn't look at the juvenile's expression, he could feel the mockery from the juvenile.
He is the captain of the 1 billion Dune Clan, but he can't even enter a small doorway on the earth: "The atrophy preparation will be handed over to you, injected into the mother's body, and you can go home." ”
Kira looked carefully at the porch, and there were two people standing in the middle, one of whom seemed familiar: "I can go in, can this preparation really let me go home?" ”
Gordon looked in the direction of the Leaf Ship on the horizon, and Virgil was also waiting for him at home.
At this time, the stranger outside the porch had already walked up to Kira, he was wearing a black suit, his movements were stiff, and his expression was not so rich compared to a normal human.
Gordon, fearing that the humans would find out, shoved the agent into Kira's trouser pocket and escaped into the sand.
"Hello, Mr. Kira." The stranger was more like a middle-aged man, and he danced his arms mechanically, "My name is Li Zhengyi, and Mr. Jiang Yilang begs you to come over." ”
"Li Zhengyi?" Kira looked at the person in front of him, this guy had very hard joints, and there were obviously several rows of welding nails in the neck position, "You're a robot?" ”
Li Zheng nodded, without any expression: "Humans have become accustomed to calling us AI, Mr. Jiang Yilang begs you to come over." ”
Kira clenched the preparation and slowly walked towards Jiang Yilang, he was not sure what the outcome would be after the destruction of the Divine Fruit.
Jiang Yilang was on a white cane, his hair was already gray, and he nodded at Kira and said, "Decades have passed, everything in the desert has changed, only you haven't changed. ”
Kira pulled out the tablet with the screen shattered and said, "And this old fellow." ”
Jiang Yilang waved his hand and looked around: "Li Zhengyi is my personal AI, there are no other outsiders here, can you tell me your plan?" ”
"Our plan?" Kira was stunned, he didn't know what his plans were.
Jiang Yilang clapped his hands, Li Zhengyi's eyes shone brightly, and a huge eggshell was projected, and the biological structure inside the eggshell had been scanned: "This guy is similar to your body structure, I am stupid enough to believe that you are just an exotic deformity, Mr. Alien." ”
Kira had been on Earth for decades and had not learned the deceit of human beings, so he raised his hand and erected the preparation in front of Jiang Yilang: "I don't know what purpose the Dune Clan had before, but this time we are going to destroy the Divine Fruit!" ”
"Originally, it was called the Divine Fruit, and you were called the Dune Clan." Jiang Yilang put his hands behind his back, pointed at Li Zhengyi and repeated, "Now remember, the red-like cactus has been renamed as Divine Fruit." ”
"What's going on with this guy?" Both Gordon lurking underground and Virgil floating in the sky shared Kira's signal, "Hatchling, he's going to reveal our secrets." ”
Kira was well aware of the intrusion of the captain and the co-in' brain signals, and at this time he also shared the signal thinking of the other two: "I will inject the atrophy preparation into the mother divine fruit, and then let the offspring divine fruit wither until it is destroyed." ”
Jiang Yilang analyzed Kira's body and situation: "So you are a race that is very suitable for surviving in the desert, and then can withstand high temperatures and has strong vitality. ”
"Yes, but the Earth's deserts are not warm enough." Kira twisted her neck, still unaccustomed to such a humid desert after decades of living.
"So you want to transform the earth into a desert suitable for settlement, and you think that the huge energy will make the earth chaotic and accelerate the process?" Jiang Yilang is no longer the hairy boy he was at the beginning.
Never had such a thought in Kira's mind, and he replied firmly, "I just want to go home." ”
"Home? This baby is full of idle things! Gordon was so angry that he bared an arm, and Virgil was eager to let the leaf ship hit the earth now.
Jiang Yilang interrupted him ruthlessly: "You have lived on Earth for decades, do you still remember what home looks like?" ”
"No...... I do not know. Kira imagined home countless times, but he was sent to Earth when he was a child, and there was only this warm desert in front of him and in the depths of his mind.
"Look, where is your home now?" Jiang Yilang took Kira around, and the machine in the desert lit up, which was extremely brilliant, "Is it the earth, or the thing on it?" ”
Li Zhengyi projected a corner of the leaf boat photographed by the satellite, which floated coldly behind the sun, staring at the earth like an eyeball.
Kira steadied, the choice of home made him hesitate, he shook the atrophy preparation, and the slimy green liquid flipped in the test tube: "They have a way to destroy the Divine Fruit, even if it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time, and I believe that there will always be a success." ”
Jiang Yilang seemed to hear Kira's answer, and he said confidently: "The Divine Fruit has become an indispensable link between the two races, I have a better plan here for us and you, I believe that you and the guy behind you will be interested." ”
