Chapter 627: Deadly Poison
Under the strong deterrence of the overlord insects, all the animals could not resist, and they could only move towards the towering trees in obedience. Beneath the trees, there was a cold, silent world, where the sunlight was blocked by the dense canopy, filling the ground with a dim light.
Each animal has a worried and fearful expression, and the sound of their breathing, movement and even heartbeat is exceptionally clear in this quiet world. The pressure of having no way out and fighting against the odds made them feel unprecedented despair.
But just as they were in deep despair, the towering tree spoke. The words were plain but carried with an irreversible command: "In order to prevent you from ventilating the human race, you should stay here. Whoever wants to run away must be killed."
The tree's words fell, and the last trace of temperature in the scene disappeared completely, replaced by unspeakable depression and fear. All the animals lowered their heads, they trembled in fear, and they could almost hear their own heartbeats.
The scene freezes at this moment, and all the animals fall into despair, unable to escape, unable to resist. This meadow, this big tree, and the strength of the overlord worm all work together to build a closed and eerie world in which every life struggles, trying to find a glimmer of life.
In this dangerous environment, some animals still have the desire to escape. However, whenever an animal tries to break free, vines quickly grow on the ground, binding it like demonic tentacles, suffocating it.
At the same time, the leaves on the big tree are as sharp as snipers, always keeping an eye on every move below. If they are not careful, the thin blade will turn into a sharp blade, instantly piercing their bodies and taking away their lives.
What scared the animals the most was the random slaughter of the overlord worm. Every now and then, it raises its massive body and kills life with ease. Its actions are ruthless and brazen, leaving every life on the steppe in deep despair. And the Overlord Worm has obviously experienced a weak life, and now enjoys its great power.
In the shadow of this towering tree, all the animals felt endless fear. They trembled and looked around nervously, fearing that in the next second, they would be the next victims. There is no sunshine, no hope, only death and despair. They wait in fear, waiting for an end that may never come. It's a hell, a place where life is hopeless, for any life that exists.
On the other side, on the eastern continent.
The lights in the conference room of the Swallowing Heaven Hall dimmed slightly, and on the huge projection screen, Jiang Kaixu was playing a well-made PPT. Every time the page is switched, it is like a bright electric light flashing in the darkness, bringing people endless shock and thought.
In the end, the picture freezes on a realistic version of the model of a towering tree. The canopy of the trees is like a gathering of dark clouds, majestic and magnificent, covering half of the sky. The tree is so thick that it seems to carry the whole world. This shocking scene made everyone in the conference room silent, as if they were shocked by this huge vitality.
Then, they began to discuss how to defeat this formidable enemy. Someone made a proposal to use flames, someone wanted to use powerful bombs. Each proposal sparked a heated discussion in the room, where everyone constructed all possible scenarios in their minds and tried to find the best solution. However, these plans were all vetoed by Ye Ning one by one.
Ye Ning sat there and sighed deeply, his eyes revealing endless melancholy and determination. He spoke lightly, his words calm, but they revealed a deep trust in his abilities. His words were just a few words, and the damage these tools could do was not as good as his own abilities, and they didn't have any effect at all.
And the only possibility is nuclear weapons, but nuclear weapons are really not used unless they are a last resort, which is too destructive. The most important thing is that at the time of the previous battle of the Lion King, nuclear weapons had already failed.
Since it appeared once, it may appear a second time! Since this towering tree is stronger than Ye Ning's combat power, his ability can also detonate nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons were thus ruled out.
The meeting went on for almost an hour
, everyone eagerly expressed their opinions, eager to try, but did not come up with substantive results. Facing the tree model on the screen, everyone's eyes were full of depression and helplessness.
Countless possibilities pass through my mind, but in the end they are all considered useless. There was a tense and serious atmosphere in this room, and everyone understood that what to do next was crucial to the fate of the entire planet.
After the meeting, the room fell silent, except for the towering tree models on the electronic screens, still flickering, as if to mock their powerlessness.
Jiang Kaixu sat in the chairman's seat, his eyes swept over the crowd, looking at their faces covered with worry, confusion and seriousness. After an hour of intense discussion, they clung to their thoughts, but still couldn't find an effective solution.
However, in the face of this atmosphere, Jiang Kaixu did not waver in the slightest. A slight smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, as if he had some secret. He cleared his throat and said calmly, "Guys, be quiet, I have a new, good method."
All the voices stopped, and Jiang Kaixu's words were thrown into the pond like a huge stone, causing the tense atmosphere in the conference room to freeze instantly. Everyone held their breath and their eyes were focused on him, waiting for his next words.
As the PPT switched, a picture of a green chemical barrel appeared on the screen. The deliberately worn surface of the chemical barrel shimmers with a sharp cold glow, and the huge words "CVID-97" on it are particularly eye-catching. It was a code name, a code name that meant danger and destruction.
Jiang Kaixu's eyes were firm, he looked at the screen, and his voice was clear and powerful: "This is a new type of poison that my researchers, through the analysis and summary of all the data from previous research by the supernatural, finally succeeded after 96 failures!"
With that, there was silence in the conference room. Jiang Kaixu's words flashed in his mind, and everyone was thinking about the feasibility of his proposal. It's a brand new idea, and maybe, it's really the only way to cut down that tree and save the planet.
Only Ye Ning, his heart was shocked. Ye Ning seemed to realize that this was the item that Da Tangerine had mentioned to him, that Jiang Kaixu was secretly researching, this was what Da Tangerine had said, that medicine that could easily kill animals.
As soon as Jiang Kaixu's words fell, a video began to play on the big screen in the conference room. The video is clear, the deep darkness is broken by the abrupt lighting, and the poison dart frog, which has always been brightly colored, stands out in the glass case.
"This is the eighth demon beast in the danger rankings, it is a poison dart frog that has always been poisonous, and its resistance to poison is extremely high!" Jiang Kaixu explained, eloquent. His tone is calm, while the poison dart frog in the video is the opposite, apparently frightened, wandering around, trying to find a way out.
As Jiang Kaixu's words ended, in the video scene, an experimenter in a white coat was particularly well protected, carefully approaching a bottle of liquid to the glass box. He poured some liquid, and the poison dart frog began to drink it almost immediately.
Immediately after, the camera in the laboratory focused on the poison dart frog. Within half a minute, its body began to twitch violently, as if it was in great pain. Within a minute, it had collapsed in the corner of the glass case, lifeless.
Jiang Kaixu's tone at this time was a little serious, "This poison is very powerful, and it only took 0.5 grams to let this poison dart frog die here. For other monsters with weaker drug resistance, it will only be faster!"
The atmosphere in the conference room became even heavier and more depressing, and everyone was shocked by this picture, and they understood the power of the poison that Jiang Kaixu said. If this poison can deal with that big tree, then perhaps, they really have a chance to save the planet.
When Ye Ning heard Jiang Kaixu's words, his eyes immediately widened, forming a stark contrast. His frowning brow and clenched fists radiated a strong sense of opposition. He jumped to his feet and said quickly, "No, this poison is too dangerous, if you use it, you may poison other trees around you, or kill other animals, and destroy the ecological environment."
The entire conference room suddenly fell silent, and all eyes focused on Ye Ning's body, and then turned to Jiang Kaixu. They understand
Ye Ning was not wrong, if the poison leaked or used incorrectly, it could indeed have devastating consequences.
However, in the face of Ye Ning's rebuttal, Jiang Kaixu did not waver in the slightest. He looked at Ye Ning, a meaningful smile lifted into the corner of his mouth, and said, "That's why I failed 96 times, and I'm studying this problem."
His smile gently dissolves the tension and makes people feel confident and calm. He cleared his throat and said loudly, "The only thing that could destroy this tree, aside from nuclear weapons, is my poison. But nuclear weapons destroy the environment, but my poison doesn't."
His words were like a stone that was thrown into the still water, causing ripples. He confidently continued, "After our round-the-clock research and 96 failures, this poison only reacts to abilities, emitting a violent toxin. But it's no threat to creatures that don't have abilities. And that towering tree happens to have a supernatural power."
"And this poison is specifically for him!"
