Chapter 779: Chapter 3 of the Covenant
The poisonous lady was stunned, Zhou Tao is definitely a person who does what he says, while he spoke, he had already given up all defensive preparations, and stood there stupidly like a stake, waiting for the poisonous lady to make a move and stab the dagger into his heart.
In fact, he was very worried in his heart, after all, no one in this world really wanted to die, but this was the only way to resolve grievances with the poisonous lady after all.
The poisonous lady held her arm in her hand, felt a little heavy on her shoulders, and slowly narrowed her eyes, "Are you really not afraid of death?" ”
Zhou Tao smiled bitterly, "Who is really not afraid of death?" But now, the city needs your help, and this is the most effective way to solve it, as long as you agree with my suggestion, you can do it now. ”
The poisonous lady was stunned, she never expected Zhou Tao to suddenly come to visit, in order to talk to herself about this.
"It seems that in your heart, protecting this city is more important than anything else." She sighed silently and put down her dagger, muttering in a somewhat murmuring tone.
Zhou Tao stepped forward and said, "That's right, I've lived here since I was a child, if it weren't for Yunxi City, I wouldn't be where I am today, and after the apocalypse, the only reason for me to survive is to protect the millions of people in the city!" ”
These words were said by him categorically, and the poisonous lady was stunned again, and then said with a complicated expression, "Except for guarding the city, you haven't thought about anything else?" Like your own life? ”
Zhou Tao didn't understand what she meant by what she said, but he still nodded honestly and said, "Not for the time being, the current situation is too dangerous, and I don't want to think about anything else." ”
"Okay, I see." The poisonous lady suddenly took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and said in a very indifferent tone, "Since you are willing to give everything for this city, of course, including yourself, right?" We might as well make a pact that I will help you defend this city, and the price is that your life must be returned to you from now on, and whatever I have to do to you, you must not disobey my will! ”
Seeing that she said seriously, she looked serious. Zhou Tao silently calculated in his heart, and then said, "As long as you ask me to do something, you will endanger the safety of this city, and I can agree to anything else." ”
At this point in the conversation, the atmosphere seemed to have eased a little, and the poisonous lady no longer stared at Zhou Tao coldly, and slowly turned around and said, "Actually, I already knew that you would be attacked by fourth-level monsters here. ”
"Why?" Zhou Tao was quite shocked, he looked puzzled, and turned his inquiring gaze to the poisonous lady.
The poisonous lady said lightly, "Do you think I'm just thinking about how to sneak attack you during this time?" I've done a very in-depth investigation of the surrounding areas of the city, including the fact that Xinghui City was poisoned by monsters, and I know about it. ”
Zhou Tao asked her how she knew? The poisonous lady shook her head helplessly and said, "A week ago, when I was out looking for materials, I once saw a seriously injured guy with third-level combat power fleeing from the direction of Xinghui City, so I stopped him and only asked. ”
"Is that person's name Cao Rong?" Hearing this, Zhou Tao's expression became serious.
As far as he knew, there was only one person in Xinghui City who could reach the threshold of third-level combat power, and it seemed that this guy was timid when he encountered that terrifying monster, so he abandoned the city and fled, otherwise there would not even be time to send a distress signal over there.
"I didn't ask for his name, but I guess."
The poisonous lady shook her head and said, "When I stopped him, this guy was already seriously injured, and even the left half of his body was gone, and he told me before he lost his breath that there was a monster with extremely terrifying combat power in his city, and he was injured by that monster." After that, I officially started refining the poison golem. ”
Zhou Tao was stunned, "You refining the poison puppet to guard against that monster?" ”
"Or else?" The poisonous lady glared at him angrily and said, "Do you think I have nothing to do and like to capture foreign beasts as pets?" ”
Zhou Tao smiled, touched his head and said, "You already knew, why didn't you tell me?" ”
The poisonous lady smiled and said Why should I tell you? Zhou Tao stopped talking, sank his face and thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "This matter is related to the life and death of millions of people in Yunxi City, even if you hate me again, you shouldn't hide such important information." ”
The poisonous lady was angry and funny, glared at him and said, "Don't use your moral standards to demand me, I'm not from Yunxi City, why bother with everything?" ”
In fact, when we met yesterday, the poisonous lady also planned to tell Zhou Tao about it, but she didn't have time to speak, so she was stirred up by Zhou Xu and Lin Yuan, she had a strong personality, and she refused to admit defeat, so she deliberately put on an indifferent attitude.
Zhou Tao smiled bitterly, "Okay, let's not make any noise, have you succeeded in refining now, and how much combat power can these poison puppets exert?" ”
The poisonous lady scolded lightly, "How can it be so easy? Poison golems are no better than ordinary zombie people, if I want to refine these poison golems, I must first find many test items, and then keep trying on those alien beasts with relatively high-end combat power, this matter is very laborious, and it is impossible to succeed at one time. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Tao nodded, and said secretly in his heart, "No wonder this woman rarely troubles me recently, and her feelings are spent on refining drugs." ”
Seeing Zhou Tao's thoughtful look, the poisonous lady couldn't help but glance at him, "What are you thinking?" ”
"Nope!" Zhou Tao immediately shook his head, "Let's talk about it, how long will it take you to refine a poison puppet with relatively strong combat power?" ”
In the conversation with the poisonous lady, Zhou Tao was inspired by some inspiration, if this kind of poisonous puppet can be successfully refined and used to defend the city instead of the military, it will naturally get twice the result with half the effort, but I don't know if the poisonous lady is willing or not.
The poisonous lady frowned and said, "It's still uncertain, I said it, refining a poison puppet can't be achieved overnight, it's just a preliminary success, and if you want to completely achieve that goal, you need at least a breakthrough period." ”
Zhou Tao immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay, I can provide you with a more professional experimental base, and arrange for the best biology doctor in Yunxi City to be your assistant, just to succeed in the shortest possible time, can you?" ”
The poisonous lady glanced at him playfully, and said with a smile, "Is it an assistant, or someone you sent to spy on me?" ”
Zhou Tao was speechless for a moment, and said with a look of shame, "With your ability, unless I take action myself, who else can restrain you?" I really hope that I can help you refine the poison puppet soon, and this is also an opportunity to guard Yunxi City! ”
To put it mildly, the poisonous lady agreed to move into Yunxi City, and then took the initiative to make a request to make three chapters with Zhou Tao, the first is that she does not belong to Yunxi City, and it is absolutely impossible to accept the deployment of the military. Secondly, the experimental base must be absolutely quiet and not subject to casual inspections by the military.
Finally, the assistant sent by the military must be a real doctor of genes, and she must not be indiscriminate, once something goes bad, she will be very angry.
As for the consequences of the poisonous lady's anger, it is naturally self-evident.
