Chapter 3: Hunting Tree Sons

Because it is a summer vacation make-up class, so the school does not arrange evening self-study, as soon as the school is out of school, it is silent, the school worker uncle also returned to his room after a round of inspection, turned on the radio and listened to the opera and shook his head. The people in the storage room waited patiently until the last rays of the sun disappeared and the darkness completely covered the sky.

In order to make sure that no one disturbs him, the man throws a hypnotic gas bomb into the room of the old man who works in the school, and the old man falls asleep to the babbling of the opera. After seeing the old man asleep, he went back to the storage room and dragged a box out of the corner. The box requires an 18-digit password to open, and it will self-destruct if you enter it incorrectly three times. He carefully typed in every digit, confirmed that it was correct, and opened the lockbox. Inside was a strangely shaped pistol and several bullets. The muzzle of the gun is only the size of a needle, and the outside is wrapped with a magnetic accelerator tube, unlike the traditional thimble firing bullets, this pistol uses magnetic acceleration and cannot shoot at long-distance targets, but the lethality of the distance should not be underestimated. The bullet was replaced by a 6-centimeter-long needle, which was made of a special material that carried powerful magnetic energy. This gun was not developed from the beginning to shoot people. He loaded a magazine and tucked the pistol to his waist, and pulled out another identical box, which contained a sniper crossbow and a tranquilizer arrow. He wound the arrow and looked through the window of the storage room in the direction of the ancient tree, which was almost 130 meters away, and he needed to aim.

The son of the tree on this side of the ancient tree did not stay in the cattery, but climbed to the top of the tree and sat and looked around, as if he was patrolling the surroundings. Its white fur seemed to turn silver in the moonlight, reflecting a cold light. It puffs out its chest arrogantly, exuding a majesty that should not belong to a cat, looking at the world with wary eyes, its body tense, and it will rush over at all costs if there is anything around it. At this point, it was no longer a cat, but more like a warrior, guarding the ancient tree, and being a lonely watchman for so many years.

The people in the storage room were frightened when they saw the look of the tree son through the scope, and the thought of leaving was born. He's a pervert, and the more the environment frightens him, the more excited he gets, and the adrenaline rush makes him feel a thrill he doesn't usually have. His hands were shaking, not knowing whether he was scared or excited. He smiled evilly, and was secretly happy in his heart, "Sure enough, it's it, the dignified guardian actually lives in the cat's body." As long as it is unprepared and the physical body falls into a deep coma, the spiritual body does not have time to get out, even if his mental power is strong, it will take at least half an hour to recover. Half an hour is enough to turn the world upside down!"

He began to aim, and he couldn't hit the head, because if the cat's death spirit body was directly separated from the body, a hundred of them would not be able to defeat this beast-level spirit body! 130 meters is the ultimate effective range of this sniper crossbow, it only takes 1.1 seconds to reach the ancient tree, he only has one chance, and if he fails, what awaits him will be an angry divine beast-level spirit body! All he can think of is death! He has calculated the landing point of this 130-meter crossbow arrow countless times, practiced countless times in his heart, and experimented countless times in a place where no one is around, and he is sure. He held his breath, the wind speed was 0.2m/s, and the distance was 135 meters, he restrained the trembling, pulled the trigger, and the arrow shot out instantly!

The Son of the Tree noticed that something was shooting at it, and it instantly released as much spiritual power as possible forward, hoping to slow down the sudden crossbow arrow, and at the same time its body flashed to the side ghostly, but it was still too late, the crossbow arrow that was supposed to hit the center of its stomach was only less than a centimeter away from it, and the crossbow arrow almost stuck to the skin and shot into its body.

He saw from the scope that the son who shot the tree clapped his hands happily, he didn't care how much the shot missed, the anesthetic in the crossbow arrow could make the elephant faint quickly, faster than the anesthetic used in the wildlife reserve. The spirit body in the cat's body must not have had time to break away, and it passed out with the body.

He rushed out of the storage room, and staggered towards the ancient tree step by step, with the word smug written all over his face, and the joy of imminent success made him ecstatic. The moonlight sprinkled on his face, revealing a face with a scruffy beard and sunken eye sockets, which everyone thought was neurotic. He walked under the ancient tree, the son of the tree had lost his strength and fell from the tree, lying on the ground drowsy, if it were not for the strong spiritual power in its body, such a large amount of anesthetic would have been enough to make its heart paralyzed and stop beating.

He pouted, "Cut, it's quite tenacious, get out of the way, you don't bother Lao Tzu to do business! You know! The world is about to change! History is going to be rewritten! Hahahahahaha!" After speaking, he kicked the tree son away, and the tree son fell heavily on the playground track, and there was a sound of broken ribs. This kick made the tree son completely unconscious, and he succeeded.

He put down his backpack and pulled out a notepad, a brush as thick as a cucumber, and a jar of ink with an unknown recipe. His excited hands began to tremble again, and he couldn't turn the page he wanted on his notepad for a long time. He slapped himself hard a few times to calm himself up. Finally, I turned to the page, and a complex array was drawn on it. There is a hollow circle in the middle, which extends from the outside of the circle, forming a pattern of hexagonal outlines. He pulled out the scythe he found in the locker to clear the weeds next to the tree. After so many years, only the half where Fu Shaotian and Chen Yanran often stayed was light, and the rest was full of weeds.

After clearing the weeds, he dipped his brush in ink and began to follow the patterns in his notebook on the ground, and the position of the hollow circle was the ancient tree, which was a diagram of the unsealing formation centered on the ancient tree.

When he finished his final stroke, the ancient tree began to make a cracking sound. The ground began to shake, the ancient trees began to wither at a rate visible to the human eye, the leaves began to fall, the bark began to dry up, and the trunk burst into countless cracks. Tree Son's cattery falls to the ground. He was under the tree and the leaves fell on him, he didn't care, he was so excited that he almost frantically spun his body, as if he were participating in a man's waltz.

At the same time, in a humble publishing house in a corner of the city, two dozen employees were idle and bored, fighting landlords and playing chess. Whoever comes in and sees it thinks that this is a hopeless publishing house, raising a bunch of useless idlers who can only play, and sooner or later it will go out of business. But if you look closely, you can see that the publishing house has the most advanced computer equipment, and there is never any paper in the printer, and when you open the case, you will find that it is a detector disguised as a printer, which is used to detect the appearance and level of the spirit body. All machines are disguised as office use, and each one has its own special role. All employees, under the loose shirt, the boys have strong muscles, and when they exert themselves, they will burst into green muscles, and the girls have a tight body, without a trace of fat, they are well-trained, they are fighters!

A girl turned off the alarm and rushed to the computer to tap on the keyboard, looked at it a few times and hesitated. At this time, a sturdy man came out of the president's office and asked, "What's the matter, sparrow?"

"Captain, is this a machine malfunctioning... How to show that there is a strong spiritual body in Yonglan Middle School, the current level is already A+, and it is still rising. The girl stared at the monitor in confusion.

"Pig head! What the hell are you doing there! Come over and see if the machine is broken! Fuck it! Lao Tzu has only seen A-level once in so many years, and there is an A+ in the city. If it breaks and makes a good report, I will tell the equipment department severely! I really took the branch and was raised by my stepmother!" the captain shouted at a fat man eating instant noodles in the corner. This is the only one of the twenty who has fat on his body.

When the pig's head heard this, he quickly pulled two mouthfuls of noodles into his mouth, drank two more mouthfuls of soup, put down the bucket, and ran towards the machine. When he was running, his flesh was trembling with him, and when he passed the captain, the captain raised his leg and gently kicked him in the ass, "The dead fat man has gained a lot of weight, don't think that you are engaged in logistics monitoring, don't care about physical fitness, and start pulling you to practice a few times tomorrow." ”

The pig's head cried and knelt down at the captain with a sad face: "Don't, captain! If you abolish my training, who will repair the machine for you if it breaks down in the future?"

"Okay, look at the machine, what if it's real!" said his teammate a little worried

"Impossible, if there is an A+ level spirit body in the city, we can't help him at all with the equipment in our hands, and when the group of self-righteous talents from the Ministry of Armed Forces come, this city is estimated to have become a dead city. The pig's head waved his hand nonchalantly and said.

The pig's head walked up to the detector and the computer and began to fiddle, and after a while, cold sweat began to drip from his forehead like rain. Team... Captain!!The machine is not malfunctioning!!There is really a spirit body appearing in Yonglan Middle School!The ability value is still rising!It is already about to break through A+ and reach the S level!"

Everyone's spirits began to get nervous, they all knew that S-class spirit bodies only existed in the textbooks when they were studying, and no one had ever seen a real S-class since the establishment of this special department in the world! Eliminating A-class spirit bodies was already an S-level difficult task, and the equipment department would send all the elites to rush over, and a whole team of snipers in the distance would aim their crosshairs at the head and chest of the spirit body, and there would be logistics departments and observation teams behind them to provide equipment, medical care, and intelligence. And here, there are only 20 people in their branch in this city. Generally speaking, there will be no high-level spiritual bodies in densely populated cities, and there are many people in the city, and there is no environment that can provide A-level spiritual bodies, so only this branch is set up in the city to monitor and deal with small emergencies. The equipment in their hands is the last generation of products eliminated by the Ministry of Armed Forces, because the Ministry of Equipment believes that funds are limited, and good equipment is useless in the branch, which is a pity. At this time, a monster close to the S-rank appeared here, and the spiritual value was still rising. If you try to stop it, you can die at any time.

"Oh my God... Brothers! I noticed that a large number of spirit bodies around the city began to move in the direction of Yonglan Middle School, the highest grade A! In less than half an hour, Yonglan Middle School will be surrounded by spirit bodies! Are these spirit bodies crazy!" The pig head shouted in despair. Adrenal hormones are already secreted like water.

"We... Are you going to fight them... There's no hope of winning... Let's quickly report to the courtyard and ask them to send someone from the equipment department over. Cuong, calm down, don't go up. The vice-captain walked over to the captain and proposed. The vice-captain is a girl, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and her perennial exercise gives her a sense of beauty that ordinary girls don't have, although almost all the girls in their courtyard are like this.

"Pig head, you report to the courtyard to see what the courtyard says. The captain thought about it for a moment and said to the pig's head.

"I have already reported it, and the courtyard has also monitored the abnormality of Yonglan Middle School, and the dean himself led a team to rush here. With such a large spiritual power, it is estimated that the entire eastern region of China can detect it. The pig's head wiped the sweat on his forehead, "Fortunately, the dean has personally dispatched, it seems that there is still a turnaround, he is a humanoid devil." ”

The captain bowed his head and pondered, is it really right for us to stay here and do nothing with such a powerful enemy? Going, it's just for the brothers to take this life. Everyone here is professionally trained, and they may not be afraid of death. But what is the value of such a sacrifice? In exchange for only an emotional memorial speech and a posthumous military medal at the memorial service. Should I go or not?

A scream from the pig's head interrupted the captain's tangled thoughts: "It's over! The courtyard has given us a task! They want us to act!"

The pig's head shouted in despair reached the ears of everyone present, and some of them had already begun to tremble.

As soon as the pig's head finished speaking, the liaison rang. The captain walked over and picked up the microphone: "Hey, whoever! It's not important, don't bother Lao Tzu!"

"Cuong, it's me. We're rushing to you, and I hope you can help us get a spot on the real situation at Yonglan Middle School. There is no need not to approach, you can't help them. Listen, be sure to live. A kind but powerful voice came from the microphone.

"But dean, I... I'm probably going to mess up again. The captain hesitated, the past coming to light, pain flashing across his brow.

Many years ago, his team had a special situation during a mission, and he was the only one who survived. It was the last scar in his heart that he wanted to touch, and every day since then he lived in remorse. But time is irreversible, and it doesn't stop to wait for you just because you're repentant enough to make amends. So he could only gasp in pain all the time, tormented by memories. From then on, he was no longer in the armed forces department, but came to work in the branch, in fact, the dean was waiting for the day when he would regain his strength.

"Believe in yourself, you can. You can't go on forever, and the sacrificial players don't want their captain to go on like this. It's okay for you kid to be confused for a while, but it's been four years, it's time to wake up. You used to be a man with a task to do. The dean said slowly.

The captain was still struggling, and faces that would never be seen again appeared in front of his eyes. They were so young, so hopeful. In a single thought, it all faded away. And all of this is his fault.

"You... Are you afraid?" the captain struggled for a long time but decided to ask for the advice of the team, if they were willing, then he would be desperate to bring them back alive, even if it was his own life. If they don't want to, they will let the people in front of them live, even if they go to court-martials on charges of disobeying orders.

There was silence in the publishing house, and everyone knew that even if it was just to go to scout, it would be very dangerous to face a spirit body that was about to reach the S+ level. But after a while, a person in the crowd shouted firmly, "Don't be afraid!" and then a uniform roar came from the publishing house: "Don't be afraid!!"

The captain's heart was shaken by the firm shout, and his heart was breaking free from the shell full of scars, the cocoon he had bound himself to. A warm current flowed from the heart to the limbs, and this blood had not boiled for four years.

"Dean, promise to complete the mission!" the captain firmly promised into the microphone.

"Remember, you have to live. ”

"Yes!"

"Comrades, good job, pack up and get ready to go!"

"Yes!"

"What are you doing? You're not part of the combat sequence. The captain looked at the pig's head as he was packing up his equipment.

"What else can you do? Isn't it reconnaissance? Without me, can you handle these equipment, all of them are five big and three coarse? The things you learn in the courtyard are all old-fashioned old equipment, and you haven't touched the current equipment at all, one by one the elites who are in the branch for the elderly~" The pig's head hummed while cleaning up.

Everyone was a little happier when they saw this fat man who usually only eats and only gags, as if they were afraid that it was already yesterday.

"Everyone, let's go in five minutes!"

"Yes!"
