Chapter 68: The Tree of Life

"How many?"

Yu Jia's eyes widened, she wanted to say, aren't you afraid of being blown up? But Sun Zhan's command just now came to mind, and it was obvious that the consul was far-sighted, so she tried to keep smiling as much as she could, and asked, "Do you want to prepare two more pieces?" ”

Three life stones can blow up two of her.

Who would have thought that Huang Quan shook his head, "It's far from enough, at least nine yuan." ”

"Nine?"

Yu Jia's voice began to go out of tune, and together with ten life stones, they could support three settlements. Such a huge amount of energy is concentrated in a person's body, and it is impossible to even think about it.

Huang Quan hesitated for a moment and added, "Let's start with nine yuan, it's not enough." ”

Yu Jia didn't say anything more, activated the console, and after a while, he made a new life stone and handed it to Huang Quan.

Huang Quan, like the previous time, held the Stone of Life, and after a few breaths, the Stone of Life disappeared in the palm of his hand. He still looked the same as before, he didn't look like anything had changed, and the sparkle in his eyes hadn't increased a bit.

Yu Jia made three life stones one after another, all of which were absorbed by Huang Quan quietly. Her face had become a little blank, and the man in front of her was like a bottomless pit, as if no matter how much she put into it, it wouldn't make a little wave.

Added up, there are already five life stones, I'm afraid it's the Thunder Lord in the Holy Land, and it will take some effort to absorb it, right?

But Huang Quan didn't change in the slightest, if it weren't for Yu Jia's eyes to see the flow of energy in her body, she would have wondered if Huang Quan had hidden all those life stones.

Huang Quan seemed to always have the same expression, and stretched out his hand to Yu Jia again.

With a bit of frustration, she slapped the console hard, and with a thud, the Life Stone ejected from the crafting machine and landed in her hand.

"Give!" She said viciously.

Huang Quan didn't understand why she was suddenly angry, he looked at her suspiciously, took the Life Stone and shook his fist, and then there was no more.

Looking at his open palm again, Yu Jia suddenly had the urge to bite hard.

As the stones of life disappeared in Huang Quan's hands, Yu Jia's eyes seemed to become more and more dangerous.

Huang Quan was a little puzzled, but after hesitating for a moment, he stretched out his hand again. This time, Yu Jia was not polite, and he took a bite of Huangquan's hand!

Huang Quan was stunned on the spot, even if Yu Jia turned his face and made a sneak attack, he would not be so surprised.

Shocked, he finally counterattacked without reflex, and when he came back to his senses, he controlled his body, that is, he couldn't be bitten, and he couldn't rebound too much, hurting her white teeth.

Yu Jia saw that he couldn't bite Huang Quan's hand, so he was ruthless, began to grind his teeth, and even shook his head.

Huang Quan sighed, reached out and patted her head, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yu Jia finally relented, but grabbed Huang Quan's hand and didn't let go. Instead of looking at Huang Quan, she turned her gaze to the side and said, "I've been repeating that dream for as long as I can remember, and every time I close my eyes, it appears." For me, it's a world during the day and another world at night. You know how desperate the world is in your dreams, but that place of despair has always had you. For me, you're the one who grew up with me, and I, I don't know what to say......"

Her eyes were slightly red, and she tried not to let the tears fall.

On the other side of the tree, there were four fighters on duty at the shelter. Although their line of sight is blocked, they can't hear or see, but if any of the probes who don't open their eyes come over to take a look, Yu Jiake will kill someone.

That dream also haunted Huangquan for many years. However, he fought all year round, and spent most of his sleep in the dormant pod, and the number of repetitions was not too much.

However, the despair in the dream was deeply imprinted in his heart. It was a fear that Huang Quan would never mention, and it was one of the very few fears in his life.

The single tone, the distorted everything, the lifeless cold, like the loneliness of being on an island of emptiness, is really irresistible. Loneliness is the greater horror than death.

In the dream, she is the only kind, the only life, and the only bright color.

Yu Jia quickly wiped away the tears that were about to fall, quickly returned to normal, and said, "Do you want more?" ”

"One piece, you can want it or not."

Yu Jia was a little puzzled.

Huang Quan explained: "The previous ones are all about restoring the body, and this piece is used as a reserve of energy. ”

After discovering that he and Yu Jia shared the same dreams and feelings, Huang Quan occasionally felt that he could tell her the truth.

Yu Jia made another Stone of Life, handed it to Huang Quan, and said, "If the Archon knew that you had used up so much of the Energy of the Stone of Life, I am afraid that he would not be generous enough to say that there is no limit, right?" ”

"No, he'll do everything he can."

Yu Jia snorted, "It's really narcissistic." ”

Huang Quan smiled and said, "Actually, the Stone of Life should be called the Tree of Life, right?" ”

Yu Jia was really shocked this time, and asked in a lost voice: "How do you know?" ”

Huang Quan pointed to the trunk of the tree in the center of the hall and said, "I can also see the flow of energy, so I will know it." ”

Yu Jia glanced deeply at Huang Quan and said, "Yes, we have the same dream, so it's not strange to have the same energy vision." ”

Huang Quan smiled slightly, but did not explain. His eyes are not as simple as energy vision, and there are at least a dozen modes that can be switched. The natural talent, after all, cannot be compared with the crystallization of the entire empire's technology.

Huang Quan looked at the Tree of Life and said, "I was still wondering why the Stone of Life had to be combined with a tree in order to take root and transform the surrounding area, but now I understand that it was originally a tree that could naturally grow and expand. ”

Huang Quan pointed to the instruments surrounding the Tree of Life and asked, "But how did these instruments come from?" ”

"Any questions?"

"With the standard of a shelter, it shouldn't be able to build it." Huang Quan was blunt.

An instrument that can gather the energy of the Tree of Life and transform it into a Stone of Life, not to mention that it can't be made with the technology of the Shelter, even the Empire can't get it.

If we can make a theoretical breakthrough in this discipline, maybe in a few hundred years, we can come up with practical applications.

With such a set of instruments, Huang Quan couldn't understand the operating principle at all, and he didn't even understand how the energy of the Tree of Life was condensed into stone, and it was so easy to transform and absorb.

Under his inquiry, Yu Jia looked very distressed and confused. When she was asked, she realized that she didn't know where this set came from, and she remembered that it had been there for as long as she could remember.

Due to Yu Jia's special talent and combat power, her authority in the shelter is very high, and all information, including top-secret historical materials, will be disclosed to her, and within the scope of the shelter, Sun Zhan only knows as much as her.

It's just that as an archon, Sun Zhan will learn and understand more things in the strategic direction, while Yu Jia is more concerned about the content of actual combat.

Yu Jia searched through her memory, but she couldn't find any information about this set of equipment, and she couldn't remember who mentioned its designer. Not to mention the principle of this set of equipment, no one can understand it, and the manufacturing process alone is far beyond the current level of the shelter.

But if the equipment is foreign, where did it come from? She had been to the Holy Land before, and the level of the human beings living on it was no more than the essential difference of shelter, after all, the two sides would meet and exchange once every few years.

So it can't be made in the Holy Land, so could it be that it was removed from the Holy Land?

Yu Jia said this guess, and Huang Quan shook his head, "How can there be such a special equipment on the holy land, even if there is, you didn't even have a complete control system at that time, how do you know what this equipment is for?" Do you remember when this device first appeared? ”

Yu Jia tried hard to recall, but she was confused, only remembering that when there should have been a shelter, this set of equipment had already existed.

Huang Quan no longer embarrassed her, pointed to the tree of life, and asked, "When did this tree die?" ”

Yu Jia's body shook slightly, glanced at Huang Quan deeply, and said, "About, fifty years ago." ”

"Is this the reason for your despair?"
