The Black Dracaena is a huge desert magic plant with a trunk of more than four meters and a peculiar umbrella-shaped canopy that looks like an enlarged version of a mushroom from a distance. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, if you get a little closer, you will find that its branches and leaves are very interesting, as if the former had been agreed, and they branch out from the top of the main trunk and grow in all directions, almost like the umbrella bones of an umbrella.

The latter is a typical needle-shaped tree, all of which grow at the very top of the tree, and a strange layer of wax secretes from the surface, all of which grow at the very top of the branches.

It can be said that the tree has completed its evolution in the desert, and the huge umbrella-shaped canopy not only creates shadow, reduces the heat caused by direct sunlight, protects the growth of young saplings, but also collects valuable rainwater when it rains, so that it flows into the roots in large quantities, and the wax on the surface of the leaves also plays a role in retaining water.

Of course, like many magical plants that require a specific environment to grow, the Black Dracaena only grows on the tenth floor of the dungeon, less than a kilometer away from the ruins of the lord.

Unlike the extreme drought in most areas of the vast sand sea, where there is not a drop of rain all year round, there will be a heavy rain here every seven or eight months or so, so the ground does not look like all the yellow sand, and there are a small number of animals and plants struggling to survive here, the most representative of which is the lively and timid gerbil beast, which will gather in groups to mate and reproduce here every year during the estrus period, until the baby gerbils grow up and will not disperse.

Lu Li, who had just entered the underground of the ruins and used the few remaining RPG bazookas, gasoline, heavy machine guns, and military explosives to clean up all the monsters, including the lord, was standing in this barren but vibrant place at this moment, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really magnificent! It's a miracle of nature!"

Casually opening a can of nutty snacks and scattering them to the curious gerbils around him, he immediately stepped under a black dragon's blood tree, took a deep breath, then held his breath, activated the magic device he was holding in his right hand, and plunged it into the trunk of the tree.

In an instant, a pale yellow translucent liquid slowly flowed out of the metal pipe and into a huge plastic bucket that had been completely drained of air.

The bucket was originally intended to hold medical alcohol, but now it has been poured out and poured into other containers, and there are four similar plastic buckets, all of which are placed on a trailer.

Due to the effect of the wind attribute magic device, the air within a radius of three meters was temporarily emptied, and the juice did not turn black or red, nor did it harden.

There is no doubt that it is absolutely impossible for a tree to fill a 42-gallon, close to 160-liter vat.

Fortunately, the number of black dragon's blood trees is large enough, and a large area of sparse woodland has formed within a radius of more than ten kilometers, and it is initially estimated that it will not be a problem to collect ten or twenty tons.

Lu Li was like a diligent little bee, collecting tree by tree, and it didn't take long to fill all the buckets, then open the glass bottle, and pour the solvent that Algora had prepared into one of the buckets.

In just a few seconds, the juice that was originally slightly viscous quickly became more and more viscous, and then slowly condensed into a jelly-like elastic gelatin, which was exactly the same as the surface of the Desert King's eggs.

In fact, this is exactly the gadget he asked Algora to deliberately create, which can greatly reduce the adaptability of black dragon's blood tree sap to high and low temperature differences.

Normally, pure juice can withstand temperatures of 1,400 degrees Celsius and temperatures as low as -150 degrees Celsius, but when solvents are added, its upper limit is reduced to -300 degrees Celsius to -40 degrees Celsius, and once this limit is exceeded, the solidified lumps will gradually become brittle or melt.

If it is used in the coating of stealth fighters and bombers, it may fly for ten or twenty minutes, but beyond this time, the paint will fall off little by little, and finally directly exposed to the scanning range of radar waves.

Carefully tightening the lid of the barrel, the corners of Lu Li's mouth curled slightly, and Nan Nan said to himself with a sneer: "If you want to force me to do something against your will, are you ready to pay the price?" This is just the beginning, and more exciting is yet to come, I hope you won't be scared." ”

With that, he carried the plastic bucket onto the car, then dug up four black dracaena trees with a shovel, stuffed them into a 1:50 magic backpack, drove the magic change Hummer straight to the rift leading to the elemental heart, and successfully passed through the gate to the underground cellar of the villa on Hibiscus Island at about half past eight in the evening.

Before he could pack all his things, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Lu Li, who was caught off guard, was taken aback, and he didn't even look at who called, so he directly took it out and chose to answer.

After all, except for a very few people who are close to him, others don't know about his private mobile phone number.

"Good evening, Mr. Lu, I don't know what you're thinking about that matter? You must know that in less than five hours, I have received ten phone calls from Washington, D.C., each of which is urging me to give a reply as soon as possible. Jamie Damon's deep voice came out of the earpiece.

Knowing that he had not been betrayed, Lu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately thanked: "Please rest assured, Mr. President, I will not embarrass you."

Just a few minutes ago, I had figured it out that I could send someone to Miami to pick up the stock right now if you wanted to, but before that, there is one thing that must be stated in advance.

The material is derived from a unique tree from the depths of the Taklamakan Desert, something between gum and sap to be exact.

I found two plants at that time, and I managed to transfer one of them, and when I was about to transfer the second one, I found that it was missing.

This means that there is a second person or organization in the world besides me who can develop similar materials. ”

"What? It's not the only one! Damn it! Wait a minute, I need to call Admiral Paul Selva, don't hang up yet. With that, Jamie Dimon quickly put down his phone, picked up the landline phone, and about a few seconds, he began to whisper to another person.

may be too far away, and it is not clear what the two are saying.

After another five minutes, he picked up his phone again and said very quickly: "Mr. Lu, Admiral Paul Selva would like to sit down with you face-to-face and talk, I wonder what you think?"

"Sit down and talk?" Lu Li subconsciously frowned.

"Yes! Sit down and talk! because, according to him, this is a threat to the national security of the United States. Don't worry, no matter what the outcome of this meeting is, I guarantee your personal safety and property safety. Jamie Dimon gives a reassurance.

As the de facto owner of the First Bank of the United States, the assurances he gave still carried a lot of weight.

Lu Li lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds, and immediately responded: "Okay, I can accept the meeting, but the venue must be in Miami, in a relatively public setting." ”

"No problem! I'll give your cell phone number to Admiral Paulo Selva, who is now in charge of the matter. Finally, good luck, after all, being a defense supplier is a good thing that countless companies can't envy. With that, Jamie Dimon hung up the phone.
