Chapter Seventy-One: The Strange Tree

Shunfeng 1 jumped into the lake alone and swam to the tree. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test

It felt a faint electric current in the water, and when it swam under the tree and continued its dive, it realized that the roots of the tree had grown from the flooded building.

Shunfeng 1 came to the door of the building and tried to slam the door open with his body. But the resistance in the water is too great, and at this point it is already running out of energy.

It swam to the top of the building, looking for another breach. The huge trunk of the tree penetrates the roof to extend upwards. It follows the trunk of the tree in search of larger cracks.

Within 1 minute, it found a crack. Shunfeng 1 brushed aside the branches and leaves, poked his head into the crack, and looked at the scene in the house. It had expected it to be pitch black inside, but there was light in the building.

It saw where the light source was, and it was a table lamp. There was a slight amount of water in the room, and the feet of the bed and table were all soaked in water.

The tree's dense roots also covered the floor, soaking in stagnant water. On the ground next to the table sat an old generator, which had been entwined with tree roots for a week.

Spotting the target, Shunfeng 1 did not hesitate to drill in, noticing that there was a passage under the machine that pierced directly through the floor to the bottom of the lake.

If it guessed correctly, the engine was using lake water to generate electricity. He quickly found the power strip on the table, pulled out his own plug, and plugged it in.

Shunfeng 1 can feel a steady stream of power flowing into its energy battery, and it is quite fast, it is estimated that it will only take half an hour to complete the charge.

On the other side, Xian Xian and Wukong wandered anxiously around the lake, observing the movement in the lake from time to time. However, Shunfeng 1 had already gone down for a quarter of an hour, and there was no movement on the lake.

"Why hasn't there been any movement?" Xian Xian was a little anxious.

"No news is good news." Goku calmly stares at the calm surface of the lake. He walked to the edge of the lake, stretched out his hand and gently skimmed the water, and indeed sensed a faint current, and his fingertips felt a crispy tingling.

This kind of electricity is obviously not caused by artificial power generation. Goku looked up at the big tree, which didn't seem to be an ordinary plant.

"Is there a problem with the lake?" Xianxian found that Wukong's eyes became more and more solemn.

"There are no other life forms in the lake, it must be caused by the electricity released by the big tree." Goku guessed.

"Big trees are plants, how can they have their own electricity?" Xian Xian looked incredulous.

"That tree must have mutated." Goku said.

"Could there be any other creatures besides you who have also mutated?" Xian Xian frowned.

"Do you remember the dishes we ate at the Star Martial Arts Gym?" Wukong looked at Xianxian and asked calmly.

"The knife slaps the cucumber?" She suddenly remembered the food of that day, all of which were improved varieties.

"Could it be that this tree was also made by Professor Xu Fangfang?" She fell into deep thought.

"It's a possibility, but we'll have to wait for Shunfeng 1 to come back and confirm my suspicions." Goku said.

Half an hour passed, and Shunfeng 1 was finally full of energy. It unplugged the charging plug, walked to the trunk of the tree, and gently put its palm over the trunk of the tree, sensing the life energy of the tree.

It was shocked when it confirmed that the tree really had its own life current. This is beyond its comprehension.

Downwind 1 had given up on observing the tree, and it continued to wander around the house, hoping to find some clues. But the owner of the house seems to have cleaned up and left nothing identifiable.

Shunfeng 1 looks at the mirror on the wall and suddenly finds a new clue in the mirror. It turned and walked towards the foot of the bed, crouching down to retrieve what was at the foot of the bed.

When it unfolded the object, it revealed that it was a piece of vellum paper that recorded the process of experimenting with plants. The ink had been soaked open, and although it was hard to read the entire text, some of the handwriting was still faintly legible.

Shunfeng No. 1 folds the kraft paper and places it in its own storage compartment. It surveyed its surroundings again, and after making sure it found nothing new, it climbed down the trunk to the crack and re-entered the lake.

When the battery is fully charged, the Shunfeng 1 can move forward with thrusters several times faster than before. Within 2 minutes, it was out of the lake and swimming towards the shore.

"It's back, and it looks like it's fully charged." Goku said.

Xianxian looked at Shunfeng No. 1, which was about to dock.

"Did you find anything down there?" Xianxian asked anxiously.

"There is a house at the bottom of the lake, and this big tree grows out of the house." Shunfeng 1 replied.

"There's a house at the bottom of the lake?" She thought that the entire island was about to disappear, but she did not expect that the houses on the island would also be flooded by the lake.

"Is there something wrong with this tree?" Wukong looked at Shunfeng 1 with a serious expression.

"That's right, this tree is very weird." Shunfeng 1 continued, "It's extremely tenacious and has its own life current. I've never seen such a strange plant. ”

"Do you have any other clues?" Goku continued to ask.

Shunfeng No. 1 opened the small storage compartment, took out the brown paper, and handed it over. "This is something I found in the house."

Goku opened the vellum paper and looked at the handwriting inside.

"What did you find?" She leaned in and stared at the brown paper.

"This should have something to do with Professor Xu Fangfang." Goku had already recognized her handwriting.

After the war, most of humanity was imprisoned, and the immortal humans were no exception. They were able to survive in this world because of their cooperation with KG.

Most of the immortal humans have become professors at W University, or work in research institutes set up by KG. All of their movements are monitored by canine people.

Goku once held the position of monitoring the human immortals, and he also knew the immortal humans who were closely related to the dynasty. Moreover, his memory has always been good, so as soon as he saw the handwriting on the vellum, he recognized Xu Fangfang.

"This tree was really made by Professor Xu Fangfang?" Xianxian asked.

"Now, the only question is time." Goku also seems to be confused.

"What time?" Confused.

"The time this tree grows." Goku added.

"It's as simple as cutting down the tree and looking at the annual rings." Xian Yan said.

"You're going to cut down this tree?" Wukong couldn't help but laugh, "The tree is so big and strong, you can cut it if you say you cut it?" ”

"It's not impossible to have a chainsaw, it will take a little longer." Burnt muttered.

"This tree, we can't touch it yet." Goku returned to seriousness, "It's likely that it's already in control of the island. ”
