103 The Tree of Pain
When the brown shell of the "Sky Tree" finally stopped growing, even Zhang Luo, who had experienced many things in the past few days and could be called "well-informed", had a shocking feeling.
-- What came into view was a 20-meter-tall tree with a crown that reached the glass cover of the greenhouse, and was still growing rapidly.
But the canopy of the tree was completely different from ordinary trees, and the black and slender filaments on it were human hair!
Underneath the growing hair, dark red veins are spreading rapidly against the glass, creating terrifying "cobwebs" above the greenhouse.
As for the trunk of the tree, although it looks like ordinary wood, if you look closely, you can see that there are many people whose hands and feet are shaking on the dark brown "bark". Even the dense eyes, nose and mouth are scattered in a haphazard manner on the bark, constantly moving to and fro.
“…… Holy, what the hell is this! ”
Faced with a giant tree that was enough to scare ordinary people crazy on the spot, the half-demon took a step back, and then found that there were pale human bones breaking through the ground under his feet, and quickly spreading!
"Can you really absorb nutrients by making tree roots from bones?"
Zhang Luo's mouth was teasing, but his body was also rapidly retreating, after all, the information of this strange tree is completely unknown at present, so it is better to be careful.
Then, he soon realized with joy that Darov knew something about the tree:
"Isn't this our 'tree of life'?" The Russian, dressed in white power armor, stared at the growing tree in front of him and let out a surprised sound.
"I'd love to know what it is, but it's better to kill it for now." Zhang Luo looked up at the rapidly growing canopy.
Shaded by hair and blood vessels, the light in the greenhouse is rapidly dimming. If this tree is allowed to continue growing, it will be finished when it completely seals off this greenhouse!
Zhang Luo originally planned to exit from the entrance when he came, but when he looked back, he found that the white bone wall that "grew" from the ground had already blocked the entrance tightly.
"Well, it looks like we'll have to cut down this tree......"
He sighed, and then began to call out the black suitcase in his hand in his consciousness:
"Can you get rid of this tree without affecting us?"
-- In the current situation, Pandora, a hell weapon that can transform into 666 forms in his hands, is undoubtedly the weapon with the best hope of killing this big tree.
It's a pity that this time Pandora didn't respond to his expectations:
"Nope." The female voice that sounded in her head gave a simple and crude answer.
"Why?" Zhang Luo asked.
"I could have killed it, but your consciousness can't handle it, master." Pandora explained: "In your hands, I can only transform into thirty forms, and the other six hundred forms are completely uncontrollable with your spiritual power, and my consciousness will collapse directly." ”
"Okay......" Zhang Luo couldn't help but sigh again.
The method of using the Hell weapon Pandora is to directly project the "consciousness" of the weapon into the user's consciousness and control it through the mind, which is convenient to use, but it will also bring a heavy burden to the user's spirit.
Zhang Luo knew very well that even if he obtained the blood of the demon race and opened the right to use Pandora, with his current level of spiritual power, being able to control this weapon was already the limit, and he couldn't expect it to become a more powerful form.
"Can a white phosphorus bomb kill it?" The half-demon asks a stupid question.
"Are you kidding? With white phosphorus bombs here, we will all be burned to death. Darov muttered back.
By this time, the branches and roots of the tree of life had spread throughout the greenhouse. But Frankenstein was not in a hurry, and a pitch-black heat ray cutting gun suddenly appeared in his arms, and a scarlet beam of light slashed towards the trunk of the "tree of life".
"Hiss!"
Scarlet light flashed from the trunk of the tree, accompanied by a scorching sound and a miserable wail, and several brown arms were severed and fell to the ground, but the trunk of the tree seemed to be intact, leaving not even a single scar!
"No, the Tree of Life can't be killed so easily!" Darov, who knew the details of this thing, said in a low voice: "Only a Grim Reaper-level guy can really kill it!" ”
At this time, the large tree of brown "bark", shaking its branches made of hair and blood vessels, let out a wail mixed in many languages:
"Kill us! Otherwise, join us ......"
"It looks like it must be in pain, otherwise it wouldn't want to die like that." Zhang Luo smiled and put the black suitcase in his hand on the ground.
Then he put down the Egyptian woman on his shoulder, held it in his arms, and shouted to the "tree of life":
"We can free you, but please give me some time!"
- If only the Grim Reaper can do it, they happen to have a "Grim Reaper" from Egypt here, but unfortunately she is still in a coma and must find a way to wake her up.
"Wake up, beauty."
Stretched out her hand and patted Hassin's bulging cheek, she was still groggy and asleep, Zhang Luo couldn't care so much, immediately grabbed a piece of meat on the face of the Egyptian royal sister, and then twisted it mercilessly.
"It hurts...... What are you doing! ”
The woman in her arms jumped up like a spring, covered her face and complained, and then was immediately startled by the tree of life in front of her: "Lord Anubis is on top, what is this?" ”
"I don't know what that thing is, but now it's up to your powers to solve it, Miss Death." Zhang Luo smiled.
"Oh well, I'll try it......" Hasher closed his eyes and began to try to summon Anubis to descend.
As if seeing a chance to be liberated, the Tree of Life slowed down, and the "canopy" that covered the walls of the greenhouse began to shake slightly, as if expecting what would happen next.
Seeing that this terrifying giant tree had no intention of attacking for the time being, Zhang Luo asked Darov next to him: "What is going on with this tree?" ”
Hearing his question, the Soviet superpower man wearing white power armor lowered his head a little depressedly: "You also know that during the Cold War, in order to compete with the United States, my country used to study many black technologies. The Tree of Life project is one of them......"
"In the early days, the researchers of the Tree of Life project just wanted to create a tree that could implant a tracker when the seedling was growing and not be detected by the detector. But then they went off the rails and began to try to combine plants and animals. And then one day......"
Speaking of this, Darov shook his head, and there was a taste of regret in his voice: "Through the forcible transplantation and genetic modification program, those guys have performed miracles, they have successfully merged crocodiles with trees!" At this point, the KGB finally discovered their madness and sent agents to wipe out the research institute of the Tree of Life Project. ”
Realizing that they didn't have long to live, the researchers of the Tree of Life project, I don't know how to use to fuse themselves with the trees, create a giant tree full of human bodies, devour the agents who came to clean up, and then disappear. Even I didn't know that this thing was in the Monster Administration's research facility......"
"It's a tragic story." Zhang Luo stared at the giant tree swaying slightly in front of him, just by looking at its appearance, he could know how hard those "people" trapped in the tree lived.
A dazzling golden light erupted from Hazin's body beside him, and all the sounds in the greenhouse seemed to disappear. Hassiner, who had just regained consciousness, finally succeeded in summoning Anubis to himself.
"Is it the Egyptian god of death......" Darov let out a surprised voice as he looked at the wolf-headed god of the dead.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Anubis strode forward, stood directly in front of the Tree of Life, and asked in a gentle voice, "You want death, don't you?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
At the same time as hundreds of sounds were made, all the hands and feet in the tree began to shake, apparently impatient.
Hearing the reply from the Tree of Life, Anubis nodded, his hands lit up with a golden light:
"Well, I'll free you."
