Chapter 287: Fruit Primordial Seed
The bones of the flowers that had been planted in the house full of corpses had already bloomed.
The brightly colored buds show the fruits with a smooth color.
These fruits are the result of botanists' research.
Also seeds.
These alchemists who worked in the castle had more or less unique abilities, such as Moraes, who was unique in his study of flesh and blood, and Sea-Man who was more proficient in medical and surgical work.
And what this botanist is good at is nurturing and propagating.
It has a very special ability to preserve the seeds of plants through the fostering of its body, keep them alive for a long time, and can plant them out when appropriate to bring them back to growth.
In Cheng Shen's opinion.
This ability is simply a miracle in this dark world with few resources!
It's a pity it's been used in the wrong place.
And after the botanist's extreme improvements, these fruits grown from corpses can also have all kinds of negative effects.
Cheng Shen twisted down a red fruit growing at the end of the vine in front of him.
【Crimson Tomato】
【Items】
[Grade: Excellent]
[Note: The fruit formed after absorbing the flesh essence can permanently increase the maximum HP by 500 points when used, but it will cause itself to be corroded by blood poison, and will drop 10% of the maximum health per second for 11 seconds]
……
The system will only provide Cheng Shen with the most intuitive item attributes.
As a matter of fact.
This fruit is still a primitive seed.
As long as it is planted in a suitable environment, the fruit can produce new tomato vines, which can be propagated from generation to generation if properly cultivated.
An original species.
It represents a new crop that can be grown in mass production!
Although Cheng Shen's territory now produces a lot of fruit and vegetable crops every day, in fact, only a few of the large crop seeds he bought from other survivors can survive in the environment of the Dark Forest.
There are only two or three that can be planted in batches.
And none of them have been improved.
Quite unpalatable.
In order to survive, Cheng Shen can certainly abandon the pursuit of food, but now that there is an opportunity to improve his living conditions, he will definitely not miss it.
Now.
There were nearly a hundred of the original plants in front of him!
And these primitive fruits, although they are all grown in human corpses, have strong side effects. However, after several generations of cultivation, it can gradually become a normal crop!
After all, the predecessor was a member of the foodie empire with a long food culture, and Cheng Shen's eyes seem to have begun to appear in front of his eyes with the pictures of his favorite tomatoes, scrambled eggs, braised pork, sauerkraut fish and other delicacies...
The Adam's apple stirs unconsciously.
Cheng Shen was not too distracted by the desire to be gluttonous.
The question now was how he was going to transport these primordial species out without alerting the owner of the castle.
Depict the Teleportation Array......
Without the help of innate ability, although Cheng Shen can also carve out complete runes, some commonly used magic runes, he has formed a kind of spiritual memory similar to muscle memory. But it can't be so smooth in the end.
By the time he finished carving the teleportation array, the daylily was cold.
Staying here, Cheng Shen was worried that he would be wasted after being found by the owner of the castle, and these fruits had the bonus of direct consumption.
He can't look down on it.
But for others, it's a big temptation.
After thinking about it, Cheng Shen still decided to trouble his close partner again......
He quickly plucked all the fruits in the room, large and small.
These fruits could not ripen so quickly, they took a long time to absorb the essence of the corpse, and most of the fruits would be eaten by the botanist to increase their strength.
But after Cheng Shen killed the botanist with lightning speed.
The essence in its body feeds back.
Not only does the fruit ripen, but it also makes these fruits contain sufficient active factors.
Even if it is harvested, it will last for a long time without rotting.
In the end, Cheng Shen pulled down the fruit that grew on the top of the ancient tree, this fruit is also the most peculiar one, and the surface is actually extended with dense and slender tender green branches, as if a sapling has grown inside.
【Fruit of Life】
【Items】
[Level: Perfect]
[Description: It needs to be cultivated through a huge amount of blood and qi energy, and it can grow into an ancient tree of life]
……
The introduction of this fruit is only a short line.
Cheng Shen knew that the ontological plant that this botanist had refined and synthesized from his own flesh and blood was called the Ancient Tree of Life, but he didn't expect that to cultivate this sapling, it would have to be watered with a lot of flesh and blood.
If it weren't for an alternative like him.
The only way for ordinary people to obtain the energy of flesh and qi is by hunting other living beings.
The natural natural replenishment of blood and qi is too rare.
"I don't know what the Ancient Tree of Life that was watered with my blood would be......"
Cheng Shen knows very well how evil his blood is.
Still, he did not hesitate to pack the fruit, and he peeled off a large piece of the bark of the ancient tree, wrapped it tightly with flexible rattans, made a simple wrap, and then found He-Man again.
"I said that when you leave the room, we don't have any relationship with each other......"
He-Man warned in an unkind tone.
When he saw the bloated package that Cheng Shen dragged into the laboratory, his emotions became even more unstable.
"...... you got Mela out? You've brought back something! ”
"Keep it for me for the time being."
Cheng Shen smiled.
He-Man was furious when he heard this, "I'm not your private warehouse here!" Hurry up and take the things away, or I'll notify the guards immediately! ”
Cheng Shen's expression remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "You just want me to save the souls of your wife and daughter, or help them completely liberate, but have you ever thought about ending all this completely and making the world normal again." ”
"The end of this?" Seaman looked at Cheng Shen as if he was looking at a fool, he could naturally see that Cheng Shen was not joking, but talking about this possibility very seriously, but he still felt that this matter was ridiculous.
"The devil in the sick village has tormented you into this picture of no people, no ghosts, just to make you have a lot of negative emotions in your hearts, to serve as food for it, and to make it grow in strength.
But it's not omnipotent.
In fact, I've won once against it. ”
Cheng Shen said.
He didn't have any items or evidence on him that could prove this fact, and He-Man certainly wouldn't believe his words easily, but Cheng Shen was able to appear in front of him so grandly to avoid the surveillance of the castle owner.
Something already says about it.
"That's the ...... Although we are manipulated, we experience pain, and life is worse than death, but the root cause of this situation does not come from it. It's a horror thing you can't even imagine. ”
Seaman said sullenly.
"I know." Cheng Shen said as a matter of course, "So after killing that devil, I will leave for that city." ”
“……”
Seaman's gaze at Cheng Shen gradually became full of incredulity, and he was silent for a long time, and he only came to one conclusion, "You are even crazier than me." ”
Cheng Shen stretched out his finger and shook it slightly, he said unceremoniously and directly: "Although I only live for myself, I will never take the initiative to infringe on the rights and lives of others, don't confuse me with you." ”
"...... you mean these test subjects?"
He-Man was dumbfounded.
"Then you may not know that becoming our test subject is already one of the lucky ones among their countless doomed tragic fates......
He didn't defend himself much.
But.
Through these words, he has determined Cheng Shen's ultimate goal.
"You can leave things with me, and you'd better get them as soon as possible before the big search comes.
Other than that......
Hopefully our next meeting won't be on the operating table. ”
Seaman said with a straight look in his eyes, he still had some regrets that Cheng Shen was obviously an excellent experimental subject but could not conduct sufficient research.
"You'd better deal with that guy in Puno next time, he has a mod similar to yours in his lab, and you disguise yourself as that modder and go berserk, and if you are discovered, it will also reduce my exposure threat."
He then added.
Saying this means that Seaman has completely admitted the cooperative relationship with Cheng Shen.
Previously, he relied on his status as a senior alchemist, even if it was discovered that Cheng Shen was rescued by him, he would be able to avoid the punishment of the castle master, and he would even be rewarded for his experimental breakthroughs.
But now.
He was already a grasshopper completely tied to a rope with Cheng Shen.
"That's exactly what I mean."
The Puno mentioned by Seaman is the owner of Laboratory No. 5 and Cheng Shen's next target.
With all the original fruits properly placed, he began to move again.
Number Five.
One.
In the middle, Cheng Shen also easily solved the alarmed No. 6 alchemist.
The process was all smooth.
Most of these alchemists have devoted their lives to scientific research, and their own combat ability is extremely poor.
And the alchemy puppet they relied on had a fatal flaw.
Weak mental protection.
The soul body used to manipulate the alchemy puppet is not that strong.
First, it is because the powerful soul body is difficult to capture, and the alchemy puppet mainly relies on physical means to fight, even if there is a magic attack, it is also activated by the magic pattern carved in the body.
The need for mental intensity is not high.
There is no need to increase the cost of refining.
In addition, the weak soul body is also more conducive to the alchemist's control, avoiding being killed by the puppet during the refining process, and replacing it.
Alchemist Nine is a vivid example.
Therefore, when facing an alchemy puppet, no matter how powerful it was, Cheng Shen often only needed a soul shock to disintegrate it from within.
If one shot is not enough.
Then a few more shots.
The spiritual wandering state of the Level 8 Blue Whale Meditation can last for a full twelve hours.
During this time, Cheng Shen's spiritual energy will never be exhausted!
Click.
The two strangely shaped keys in his hand are closed in his hand to form an oval-shaped silver disc, on which are covered with patterns symbolizing the power of wind and thunder, and in the middle is also depicted a god who controls thunder and lightning.
But there was still a small piece missing from the deity's chest.
There are three parts to the key.
The alchemists of the first and fifth laboratories each held one copy, and the other key was in the hands of the Silver Wing Priest that Cheng Shen had seen before.
Three keys together,
to open the door to Lab Zero.
According to Seaman, the doors of Lab Zero have only been opened three times in the decades since he arrived.
And all three of these were at a time when the apotheosis experiment had achieved great results.
However, after each opening of Lab Zero, their memories are forcibly erased.
So even he didn't know what secrets were hidden in that lab.
Also, the location of Lab Zero is not here.
Rather, it's underground.
It has the same level of secrecy as the castle owner's room on the top floor.
"It looks like we can only break through."
Cheng Shen muttered.
The only good news he had learned from He-Man was that the only high-level unit in this castle, except for the mysterious castle owner who had never really shown his face, was the Silver Wing Priest.
But even the birdman.
It is also a lord-level existence whose realm completely crushes Cheng Shen's body.
"So use some special means......"
Kiss.
A dark green medicine bottle was uncorked by him.
A thick green mist suddenly poured out of it, but when it dispersed into the air, it quickly became colorless and formless.
Cheng Shen only felt that the only remaining flesh and blood on his face immediately began to become numb and unconscious.
This is the poison he scavenged from the room of an alchemist who is proficient in poison, and the poison is quite violent, that is, his current body structure does not need to breathe to survive, otherwise he would have died on the spot at this moment!
The Wind Rises......
Cheng Shen skillfully sketched out a wind element rune, which was only an apprentice-level rune, and it did not have the metamorphosis attribute bonus of his body.
The effect is rather weak.
It's probably only equivalent to the wind power blown by a household electric fan.
But it is used to change the direction of air flow in the castle.
Enough is enough.
Along the half-open metal gate, a colorless and odorless poisonous gas slowly evaporated out of the corridor.
And two silver-armored guards with weapons in their hands ready to carry out today's acceptance have already walked on.
Poisonous winds blow.
Their pace has not slowed down in the slightest.
Cheng Shen immediately understood that most of the guards in this castle were puppets who had been transformed and transformed like him.
But it doesn't matter.
That's where his other strengths come into play.
Soul Shock!
After he took the first step out of the door, and when the two silver-armored guards reacted, the giant hammer with condensed spiritual power had already burst out!
Boom!
An invisible force chiseled a large piece of the armor on their chests, and the two silver-armored guards froze in place motionlessly, and their bright red gaze dissipated in an instant.
Bang......!
Cheng Shen sensed that the thunderclouds entrenched above his head were agitated, and he couldn't help but wrap the silver robe on his body, He-Man said that the biggest effect of this robe was to avoid the spiritual perception of the ubiquitous castle owner.
Now.
He can only hope that its effect will be excellent.
Walking quickly, the castle counterattacked faster than he imagined when it was invaded, and as soon as Cheng Shen walked out of the corner of the corridor on the left, a team of rushing silver-armored guards had already gathered across from him.
Soul Shock!
Cheng Shen relied on the recovery of 450 mana per second of the increase in spiritual travel, and decisively blasted out a shot skill.
I heard a commotion.
Before the silver-armored guards could get close, they were scattered all over the place!
