Chapter 160: The Prodigal Son Turns Back
The last transplanted Yuan Qi tree dried up and died after half a month, with no photosynthesis, no respiration, and no signs of life.
Now this vitality tree, in everyone's attention, after half a month, has not died, and its state at this time makes everyone happy.
However, although it is not dead now, it is also in a state of hanging, half-dead, and only a small part of the leaves have begun to photosynthesize, which can only be used for normal functional consumption. However, when Aoki possessed it, he found that its roots began to gradually fester, and the entire root of the tree did not grow any shoots, not even a small one.
In the end, Aoki concluded that the reason why some of the leaves maintained the state of life was because the surrounding vitality was fed, but the effect was not obvious.
Although Aoki has a lot of vitality in his body, Aoki can't find a way to pass on the vitality in his body.
"Are you really leaving it to fend for itself?"
At first, I thought it would die, but now that it is not dead, Aoki should be happy, but now Aoki is not happy at all. Correspondingly, Aoki hated that force even more, so these days, Aoki searches each research base in Laos and in China's Yunbian Province one by one.
Because of the situation of reforming people, Aoki's search focused on the Lao side. Finally, on the eighth day, he found clues at the joint research base.
"Harry, congratulations, you're able to work at headquarters." The leader patted Harry on the shoulder and comforted......
"Thank you for the leadership, this time I was finally able to go to the headquarters, which is the place I dreamed of." Harry said excitedly.
"That's good, I'm afraid you're upset about leaving this place."
"If you say you're satisfied, it's definitely fake, after all, you're going to leave this energetic place, but I want to go to the headquarters even more, thank you for the leadership."
"Have all the materials been destroyed?" After persuading the subordinates, all that remains is to finish the work.
"Rest assured, the leader has all been destroyed in accordance with the regulations!"
When the leader heard this, he relieved himself and left, but he muttered to himself: "Yuanqi Tree...... If the plan had been successful, the headquarters would not have lacked this, but now the plan has failed and can only be postponed. "That plan is currently known only to this leader, and Harry is completely unaware of it because he is not at the level of the same person.
Aoki happened to hear their conversation at this time, and finally confirmed what he thought: "Listening to the person's self-talk just now, this incident should be done by this organization." ”
"But these are just small minions, and besides, what kind of headquarters are they talking about? It's a pity that they are quite secretive, and many things are shrouded like a layer of fog, and they can't see clearly. ”
Just now, the man didn't think that he was just muttering to himself, and someone heard his secret.
And the cautious leader didn't expect that he was just out of prudence, and specially found an excuse to transfer the relevant personnel, but he didn't think that there was still an existence like Aoki in the world who could spy on other people's secrets without barriers. Cautious thinking made his plan flawed.
Aoki quickly rummaged through the switchboard of the joint research base with a sense of thought, and found the relevant information of these two people, if Aoki was not familiar with the operating systems of these computers by now, Aoki would definitely be blind.
The Joint Research Base is an organization of four world-renowned research institutes that are united in order to achieve equal status with the European Union and the United States. In the case of limited research resources, equal status can provide sufficient equal access to resources.
The joint research base is a joint but independent group of four world-class research institutes, both of whom are members of the HARMAN Institute. However, Aoki felt that things were not so simple, which was seen from their performance just now, and partly from intuition.
Subsequently, Aoki, like the Grim Reaper in "The Grim Reaper is Coming", devised several coincidences to kill Harry and the leader. A super coincidental accident like this shouldn't attract the attention of the enemy.
All Aoki has to do in the future is to keep an eye on this Harman research institute and further search for relevant clues in order to find the so-called 'headquarters'.
Time passed little by little, and the vitality tree in Yanning County was still half-dead, without the slightest recovery, and this scene made Aoki and other people worry. Aoki kept trying to help it come back to life, but after trying several methods, nothing came off.
At this time, he began to look forward to the arrival of the crystal monster. There have been two crystal monsters, the first black crystal increasing the physical potential of the male leopard, and the second red crystal causing the subtree to change, although only 3 of the closer subtrees have been catalyzed.
In addition to these two crystals, there may be another crystal.
However, this crystal monster is still quite a big threat to itself now, and it is getting more and more powerful every time, and the slightest negligence on his part may lead to death. So Aoki's mood is also very conflicted now, looking forward to its arrival, but also afraid of its arrival.
According to the time of the first two monster appearances, the first is the summer of 2029, and the second is the summer and autumn of 2030, if there is a pattern, this summer and autumn monster will appear. It's autumn now, and the monster is probably coming.
Thinking of this, Aoki was taken aback by himself, he had missed the time of its appearance before. In the future, I have to make a time map.,It's better to infer the time when the monster will appear.,It's better than waiting for death.。
At present, there are three main male leopards, mammoths, and rock apes in the valley, and two golden eagles of the air force, which can prevent the enemy from coming from the air. There are two large anacondas in the water, which can deal with monsters that do not know the nature of water.
After this period of exercise, the male leopard has increased in size again, and has reached 2.5 meters, and the stone benches and tables in the camp can no longer bear its weight. And his combat power also grows in proportion to his size, and his fur can directly block ordinary bullets.
And the rock ape is no worse than the male leopard, it can run upright, can run on all fours, can jump on trees, strength, claws or something is not worse than the male leopard, in terms of combat effectiveness, because of the flexible and changeable attack mode, it is more powerful than the male leopard.
The Golden Mammoth - The small mammoth has to completely destroy the first two in terms of size, strength, and defense, but it is a little less flexible, and it is a meat shield.
These three plus two anacondas, they are currently the top combat power, and the others are still a step behind.
Well, when the time comes, when there is a battle, call the pig general, and the earth-shattering chrysanthemum gun of the gods last time can be said to be the decisive skill that lays the foundation for victory.
Thinking of this, Aoki found that there was really a big gap between the two golden eagles in the air force alone, and he had to find a way to improve it. If there is a powerful aerial monster, Aoki will have no way to take it, and I hope that the monster that may appear this time is not an aerial monster.
Tactically, Aoki's tactics of interfering with the enemy's senses were still very successful. And the last time the animal was lured into the lake, and then the anaconda hanged it, the tactic is also very good, and it can continue to be carried forward.
There is also the armor proposed by the male leopard last time, which is currently being developed and designed by the military base, using advanced technology and good materials. Equipping it, it should be able to increase combat effectiveness a lot, and I have gained a lot, but I have found a lot of problems, and I need to improve it in the future.
After Aoki thought about this, he began to tell this group of thugs to be vigilant in the recent period.
Coincidentally, some people at the base began to come up with the same idea as Aoki, thinking that monsters might come to attack during this time. Although it was just speculation, the base did not dare to slack off, and repeatedly ordered to strengthen the surrounding vigilance.
…………………… Lila County.
Nie Jian was originally a member of a happy family in Lila County, perhaps because of the wrong way of opening, a car accident ruined his family. Since then, both parents have died, and without human discipline, he began to give up on himself.
His fate began as tragic as Li Lin's, but the process was many times more complicated than Li Lin's. After breaking the can, he began to live a life of gangsters, blackmailing, bullying men and women, and fighting fiercely.
But now he is unemployed, because the whole county is now in a very harmonious atmosphere, and those who used to be indifferent onlookers have now become brave warriors who fight for justice and draw their swords to help. Because of this, the profession of a gangster can no longer be mixed up in this place.
After losing his profession as a gangster, he found that he had no survival skills, no money for food, no money for rent, no money for haircuts, no money to buy clothes, and he found that he was redundant in this society.
Thankfully, one day he found out that he had changed and become a legendary superpower, a superpowered person with Spider-Man abilities. He was ecstatic, and he began to use this ability to burglary.
He found that this method was much quicker than the thugs asking for money, so he would go around burglarizing every night. Later, he found that there were several people around him who had the same superpowers as him, and they were all doing the same thing as him, and they even crashed into cars a few times.
It wasn't long before he started to get tired of it, though. He used to sit on the roof and look at the huge picture on the big billboard opposite—a teenager and a big yellow dog.
"Can I be as ...... as he is" Nie Jian has a special feeling for the person on the billboard who has the same fate as himself.
Often walking by the river without getting his shoes wet, one night, after he finished his work, he was blocked in a remote alley by a man and a dog, and everyone got the stolen goods.
Seeing this person, Nie Jian was a little overwhelmed. This person is Li Lin, a teenager who has a tragic childhood like himself, but is lucky to get all kinds of beauty in the world and enjoy praise from all sides.
Envy? Adore? Both.
He often wondered if he could have been like him and not take the wrong path, if he could have become a person like him.
But now it's too late, and there's no going back. Looking at the sunny and kind face of the young man opposite, Nie Jian felt bitter in his heart.
"Can you stop doing these things in the future? Start with goodness? ”
"From goodness? Hehe...... I don't think there's going back. Nie Jian replied, feeling bitter in his heart. If someone else said this to him, Nie Jian would definitely throw his sleeves and vent his scolding directly, but he wouldn't be the person opposite, because this person can be said to be the light in his heart, a ray of light in the endless darkness.
"You can, you're still underage, as long as you turn yourself in, I can guarantee that you will be able to come out soon, and then you come to me, and I will help you." Li Lin's words were very sincere.
When Nie Jian heard this, he felt a warmth in his heart.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!" After saying this, Nie Jian felt as if his whole body was relaxed, just like the feeling he had when he was under the warm protection of his parents, and the bright smile that he hadn't seen for many years was also revealed.
Li Lin communicated with Rhubarb a few times, and then Rhubarb nodded definitely. After Rhubarb's confirmation, Li Lin finally put his mind at ease and walked over to shake Nie Jian's hand.
"Hello! My name is Li Lin! We'll be friends from now on. ”
Nie Jian felt that in this warm handshake, the power of sunlight was transmitted to him.
"Friend......" Nie Jian suddenly felt an indescribable emotion when he heard this word.
"Hmm!" Nie Jian nodded heavily.
Soon after, Nie Jian calmed down and began to return to his home.
What he didn't notice, though, was that behind him, there was a looming green monster hanging behind him, and that monster had a strange green crystal on its forehead.
