Chapter Fifty-Three: The King-size Monkey

Shuttles whistling overhead.

A group of sixteen men in full gear jumped out of the shuttle.

"Equipment inspection again," Wei Ran commanded in a smart military uniform, and the group not only brought the tools needed to collect samples, but also each of them had long and short guns.

"This world! Beautiful nature. It's been a long time since I've seen anything like this, and I didn't expect to see it again while I was alive. It was Bird, a gray-haired, wrinkled old man.

Bird is one hundred and fifty-five years old this year, and his life is about to cross three centuries, he has witnessed the third world war of the "Elysium space" plane, and is an authoritative figure in the biomedical field of the Elysium space station, the creation and improvement of the medical platform and the general database, most of which are due to his contributions, and he himself has lived to the present with the upgrading of the medpod3000 fully automatic medical platform.

"Confirm, normal" Everyone carefully checked all kinds of equipment, weapons, ammunition, communicators, and medicines they were carrying, and their destination this time was a humid rainforest, and they had to make adequate preparations.

The agents in the Elysium Station were almost all shot by the robot guards when Wei Ran tampered with the system last time, and this group of ten agents was re-recruited by Wei Ran on the Earth of the Elysium plane.

Sixteen people, Wei Ran, Bird, four researchers, and ten agents.

Except for Wei Ran, everyone carried at least one weapon with great lethality, and in addition to that, they also brought a lot of explosives and professional tools to ensure that they could bring back the blood orchid plant samples safely.

"Alright, let's get moving." Wei Ran gave the order.

The timing of this crossing is before the plot is launched, and the time is not too far in advance.

Blood orchids only bloom for two weeks, and they have to move quickly.

In order to find Blood Orchid, a total of three Raven planes were dispatched this time, that is, military shuttles. The shuttles are equipped with weapons of wide area destruction to avoid being beaten by huge biodes.

Searching for blood orchids in the dense rainforest is not an easy task. Wei Ran and the others were very unlucky, and not long after the exploration work began, it rained heavily in the rainforest.

The whole rainforest is like a sea of blue smoke, which is wonderful. Within a few minutes, water began to accumulate on the ground, and within ten minutes, small streams formed in the rainforest.

Because of the arrival of this rainstorm, the task of finding the blood orchid naturally could not be continued.

Under Wei Ran's order, all the explorers returned to the shuttle.

A group of people were all wet, but Wei Ran was still dry, and it looked very abrupt in the crowd.

"It's been a long time since I've seen anything like this." Bird stood in front of the window of the shuttle and sighed, maybe his life is coming to an end, maybe Bird has lived too long, he has seen a lot of changes in the world, and his life experience is complicated. Bird's personality is very easy-going and indifferent, and there is no sense of crampedness at all when standing in front of Wei Ran. Unlike other personnel, when they are close to Wei Ran, who is unusually mysterious in their eyes, they usually feel cramped and nervous.

"Nature is magical, it's tough, it's complex, it's mysterious, it contains a lot of secrets that we humans haven't discovered yet." Wei Ran walked up to Bird's side, "How does it feel to cross for the first time?" ”

"It's amazing, I thought that sooner or later humanity would go extinct, but when I came here, I found hope again." Bird turned around and looked at Wei Ran with a blank look. "You saved a world."

"Don't you hate me for tampering with the system and driving most of your companions out of Elysium?" Wei Ran asked.

"I've never hated you, because my life is running out and I don't know how many more years I can last. And the Elysium Station is gradually declining, and even if you don't occupy it, it still can't escape its fate. Bird shook his head.

In the "Elysium" plane, most of the food used by human beings comes from the output of greenhouses, and the energy used by space stations and factories all comes from nuclear fusion at low temperatures, but nuclear energy is not renewable energy, and by the end of the 22nd century, the "Elysium" plane has faced the crisis of depletion of biochemical energy.

It's not just the depletion of biochemical energy, Bird has found through tests that most of the earth's living things have gone extinct. In the 100 years since the nuclear war, many living things have gradually become undetectable. Even the once richest oceans are now dead.

With limited survival resources, the rich naturally don't want to waste too much on civilians. Therefore, the medical platform medical services will not be opened to civilians and left to fend for themselves. It can be said that the once again sharp decline in the civilian population is not unrelated to the rich people of the Elysium space station.

To a certain extent, Wei Ran's arrival really saved the plane of "Elysium".

The other people in the shuttle also gathered around the window, excitedly watching the beauty of nature. The ten agents were all newly recruited, from civilians, and they had never seen such a magnificent view once in their lives.

The rain came and went quickly, and the dark clouds in the sky quickly dispersed, and two colored halos appeared around the exposed sun.

The quest to find the Blood Orchid continues to begin.

The reason why he came here before the plot started was because Wei Ran had already made a schedule for the collection of blood orchids, and the sooner he collected it, the better it would be for his research. And there is a good chance of avoiding the estrus period of the python, so as to avoid being hindered by these huge creatures to collect samples.

It was really difficult to find rare small plants in a rainforest with a huge area and a wide density, even if Wei Ran tried his best to locate them as accurately as possible before crossing over. But this can only be known that the blood orchid is around the crossing point, and it is impossible to know the specific location.

The agents looking for the blood orchid formed teams in twos and twos, centered on the crossing point, and scattered in all directions.

The jungle is very dangerous, and even small creatures can pose a deadly threat to people, especially for Elysium personnel who have no experience walking in dense forests.

Therefore, each agent is fully protected from head to toe, even the face is covered tightly, and the heavy equipment does not bring inconvenience to movement, this set of clothes is specially designed for this operation, Wei Ran is specially designed, a bit like Mark One, but the main material of the equipment is not steel, but the material of the skeleton is made of alloy. But the power was provided by the Ark reactor.

Communication has been silent, keeping in touch at all times.

"Captain, I've noticed something unusual here." An agent made contact suddenly.

"Debriefing." The captain is Wei Ran, and he has never had a proper title in the Elysium Space Station, called the president? It's a little inappropriate, it feels weird, anyway, this time he led the team to find the blood orchid, so he simply let everyone call him the captain.

"A monkey, we found a giant monkey! Oh! Oh my God, it's attacking us. Another agent exclaimed.

"This monkey is more than two meters tall, and we are sure that it is just a monkey and definitely not an orangutan."

Subsequently, Wei Ran called up the body-worn surveillance of the two agents who found the abnormality, and a monkey close to two meters and a half appeared on the video screen.

This monkey has smooth fur and is extremely muscular. It's smashing hard fruits, branches, and the like at the agents like crazy.

But the agents didn't rob it, and the creatures, which were strangely shaped and didn't pose a threat to their lives, were on the list of live captures to provide fodder for the experiment.

After confirming the facts, Wei Ran checked their coordinates and teleported over.

Wei Ran's sudden appearance aroused the vigilance of the monkey, and he noticed that there was a dangerous aura on Wei Ran's body, and the monkey, who was still arrogant and abnormal just now, stopped throwing things at the agent, stood there and grinned, warning Wei Ran and the others not to approach.

"Is there a blood orchid here?" In any case, this unlucky monkey could not escape the fate of being used as an experiment when he met Wei Ran.

Wei Ran used his telekinesis to control the monkey in an instant, and suddenly he was attacked inexplicably, and the monkey screamed miserably, with a look of fear in his expression. Seeing that this monkey had such a humane expression, Wei Ran guessed that it was likely to have eaten blood orchids, and even had blood orchids around here.

Sure enough, two agents scattered around to search, and sure enough, they found the Blood Orchid.
