Chapter 206: Brother Bao, serve you
Song Lan admits that his communication with the Devourer deviated from his imagination, and the melon-eating crowd Medell also looks at him with the eyes of an alien.
Being treated like this by an anomaly who was highly fused with the cells of the Devourer really hurt him a little.
Just now, he had to spend more than ten minutes to popularize the concept of justifiable defense to the giant worm in front of him, trying to make a creature who does not understand human society understand that even if he has turned out so many people in the past month or so, it is really difficult to understand the concept that he may still be a good person.
In order for them to get to know each other better, he could only count the sins of those people.
Madele wasn't interested in criminals, but when she heard that Song Lan had eliminated the Eater's kind, her eyes widened.
You know, even the tactical nuclear bomb activated by the company can't completely destroy this parasite, as long as one part of it remains, it can be quickly recovered.
And the person in front of him can do something that even a tactical nuclear bomb can't do?
Her first reaction was that Song Lan was bragging, but the demeanor of the giant worm made her have to believe it.
If it only killed a few criminals, it was not enough to scare the Devourer to the point of actively disconnecting it from Song Lan, and in its eyes, the other party was really capable of threatening its life.
Every species exhibits an instinctive fear when confronted with this threat, even the Devourer.
It's just that, in its cognition, there are very few creatures that can completely destroy themselves.
In the vast majority of cases, it is it that merges other living beings with itself.
"Then you'll probably understand, right?"
After popularizing the relevant laws for the giant worm, Song Lan breathed a long sigh of relief, and in the end, he did not hesitate to come up with decisive evidence - the head of the law enforcement department of the seventeenth district knew what he had done, if he was really a serial murderer, then he would have been sent into the bureau by the wise and brave and upright Lu Xiang.
In the face of his explanation, the Devourer nodded very humanly, accepting that he might be a good person.
But apparently it had completely given up the idea of assimilating Song Lan.
This time, what came into contact with Song Lan was not the branches and buds that grew from it, but the spiritual energy that was absent.
Compared to its massive flesh and blood, the strength of this psionic energy was pitiful, not much higher than the mutated creatures he encountered.
The psychic seemed to question him for what he had come here for.
"Actually, I came to you this time to ask you for a favor."
Song Lan squeezed out a smile and said, "Not long ago, I was forced to shoot and kill a ...... for some reason Hey, you wait! ”
Seeing the giant worm and several of its tentacles burrow back into the ground at the same time, in a hurry, Song Lan even subconsciously made a move to keep Er Kang.
Perhaps because of the effect of this wonderful gesture, after retracting a few shots into the underground hole, the Devourer still had a head outside, which seemed to be the last chance it left for Song Lan to explain, and if Song Lan's next explanation did not satisfy it, it would immediately terminate the exchange.
"The strength of a single individual is limited, and when you go out, you have to make a few more friends."
Song Lan has long been deeply aware of this truth.
For example, his ability can usually only be used to kill people and bury people, and it is a little meaningless in the field of saving people and bringing the dead back to life, "You help me with this, we will be good brothers in the future, if you have something, you can come to me, I will definitely help if you can help." ”
The giant worm narrowed its eyes, as if it was carefully judging Song Lan's credibility.
After about thirty seconds, it finally finished its judgment, though it seemed to reluctantly sprout a bud from its body.
The granules were quickly cut off, and when they landed on the ground, they turned into a chubby bug.
In its opinion, Song Lan's words were not so convincing, but after it was afraid of being rejected by itself, Song Lan became angry and kicked it like the same kind of people who had treated it before.
"Thank you."
Song Lan bent down to pick up the worm on the ground, this should be the parasite that Medell mentioned that can make Su Li "come back to life", so far, the first purpose of his visit has been achieved.
However, this was not the only problem he had come to the Devourer today.
Before the giant worm was about to burrow back into the ground, Song Lan once again retained the other party.
"By the way, there's one more thing."
The worm blinked, a palpable impatience in his eyes.
Song Lan naturally felt the emotions of the "Devourer" at the moment from the thin spiritual energy, but the issue he wanted to talk about was very important, in his opinion, the "Devourer" was not only a good friend, but also a potential Zerg base, in order to avoid falling into a situation where he had to give it a kick in the future, he had to start working today as a brother who went deep into the Zerg base.
Maydell on the side was stunned when she heard this.
Because she never dreamed that someone would stand in front of the Devourer and talk about the current situation in the Seventeenth District, the Coalition Government and the Resistance.
She found that since Song Lan refused to use the α blocking meter, she couldn't understand this person's thoughts at all.
But she was at least sure that the man's brain circuits were absolutely different from normal ones, so much so that he was indeed suspicious like some unknown creature in human skin.
When this thought was rooted in her heart, the more she looked at Song Lan next, the more she felt that something was wrong.
Song Lan's speech continued, "District 17 is your lair, and the war will destroy the city and your homeland at the same time, so our interests are actually the same when it comes to protecting and developing District 17, Medell, this matter is also related to you." ”
Maydell didn't expect the topic to suddenly turn to her, she didn't speak, just stared at Song Lan with slightly guarded eyes.
"There is currently no garrison in the 17th District, so it will be extremely unfavorable for us if a war breaks out, so I recently formed an organization with the goal of developing and protecting the 17th District, and the organization has now formed a mechanized force that is beginning to take shape, and has also invited a very talented engineer."
Song Lan introduced the basic situation of the organization for one person and one worm, "In this organization, no one will discriminate against others because of the difference in ethnic groups, everyone is striving for a common goal, and more importantly, now the organization is in the embryonic stage, and joining now is the veteran of the organization." ”
"You, you're inviting me?"
Madele's childless eyes sprouted a little strange emotion.
In her opinion, she and Song Lan are in a relationship of mutual use, and the other party can find a way to make Su Li "come back from the dead", and she can also solve the heart disease that she has been suffering from.
α blocker was running out, and she had to rely on external forces to suppress the spread of the Devourer.
But what she didn't expect was that Song Lan not only invited her, but also invited the Devourer to join his organization at the same time.
What's even more incredible is that after receiving Song Lan's invitation, the giant worm immediately nodded.
Just now, the Devourer suddenly figured out a question.
The best way to overcome fear is to join it.
There are many forms of integration, and it does not necessarily have to be assimilation of the other party, and taking the initiative to join the other party is also a way of integration.
