Chapter 51: Chu Yuesheng's absence of the stars and snow
But why did it become like this? Obviously, I want to eat barbecue with my juniors and regain my relationship. As a result, now that the junior has fainted again, it is impossible for her to say sorry to a person who has already fainted.
Does that work?
Well, it seems that we can only wait for the juniors to wake up and then do some care. As for now......
"Michael, send the juniors back, take good care of them, and by the way, check how effective the star dragon meat is on him. ”
A pillar of light descended from the distant sky, enveloping Chu Yuesheng inside. The teleportation was activated, and Chu Yuesheng, who was shrouded by the pillar of light, turned into a piece of light particles, and returned to the starship flagship far away in space with the shrinking pillar of light.
After sending Chu Yuesheng back, Xingxi Bai Xue also activated the jump teleportation by herself, using her own starship as a transit station, and directly came to the basin where the incarnation of the planet's will was located. To be precise, she appeared directly above the green lake in the center of the giant tree.
The surface of the lake is obviously liquid, but it bears the weight of Xingxi Baixue, allowing Xingxi Baixue to stand on it steadily.
"Hey, it's out. Xingxi Baixue glanced at the calm surface of the lake and said into the air.
The lake in front of her swelled, and the slime reluctantly emerged from the water.
"I've fulfilled my promise, and now it's time for you to pay. Half of the water of life, hand it over. ”
“...... Can you change it? You know, you're asking too much. The slime hesitated for a long time, but finally plucked up his courage and said in embarrassment.
The water of the lake here is the life force it has painstakingly collected, and it is the key to whether it can complete the advancement of life forms. If this gives half of Xingxi Baixue, then its work is almost equivalent to half of it, and the matter of promotion may be delayed for decades or even longer. Although decades can be said to be fleeting for the incarnation of the planet's will with infinite life, it is a dull and boring day with no hope. And now, seeing that the change they are seeking is about to happen, the slimes can't accept waiting so long. It can't wait for it to collect all the life force it needs today and complete the upgrade, and now Xingxi Baixue has asked it to hand over half of its life force, and it really doesn't want to bear this reward.
Xingxi Baixue raised her eyebrows, and her eyes became playful.
"Huh~ You want to bargain with me? Are you sure? Who gave you the courage to do this, don't you know what you're up against?" The series of questions oppressed the slime, making its body smaller several times.
The embodiment of the will of a planet that has not even entered the universe, without the slightest resistance to attacks from outside the universe. Not to mention the Star Curtain Saintess, any interstellar civilization with the ability to destroy stars can easily conquer this planet. In front of Xingxi Baixue, it really has no conditions to bargain with.
"But......" The slime hesitated, but still moved from his heart, bent his legs, and slammed his head on the surface of the lake in front of him, "Please! Anything on this planet can be taken except this lake, as long as you can see it. Anyway, please!"
As the embodiment of the will of the planet, this slime is really shameless enough. In order to complete the ascension and leave the planet that gave birth to it, it did not intend to leave even a little bit of dignity, and threw it all away.
Seeing that the slimes had groveled to this extent, Starry Snow secretly gave herself a thumbs up, and then finally brought up her ultimate goal.
"So, this planet of yours, there must have been an energy burst not long ago, right? Can you show me what it is that triggered the energy explosion and attracted alien star thieves?"
"This ......" the slime hesitated again, obviously, Starry Snow was reluctant to agree.
Xingxi Baixue grasped her emotions quite well, and she couldn't hear the slime's answer, she nodded, directly summoned the pillar of light, and prepared to leave.
"Well, since you don't have any sincerity at all, it seems that our negotiations have broken down. Prepare to accept the wrath of the higher civilizations, hesitation and greed will eventually leave you with nothing. ”
After saying that, the brightness of the pillar of light increased, and the figure of Starry White Snow gradually blurred in the pillar of light, looking as if it was leaving.
Seeing that Starry Snow had already made a declaration of war and was about to leave, the slimes were in a hurry. How dare it really go to war with the Starcurtain Maiden, although it doesn't even know how transcendent the Starcurtain Maiden's status in this universe is, but that doesn't change the fact that a planet that hasn't even had a civilization is unable to resist any alien invaders. Xingxi Baixue can at least communicate, if it really tears its face, it can't win no matter what.
It has benefited, the planet has been cleaned of corruption, and the greatest obstacle to the advancement of its life form has been removed. Since it has received such a big benefit, it is understandable that it will pay some price that makes it painful......
At this moment, countless thoughts passed through the Slime's mind, but its voice did not hesitate in the slightest.
"Wait a minute! I promised. The son of the world, I'll give it to you!"
The devil knows how much pain it felt in its heart when it made this decision, and its voice was already a little distorted anyway.
The teleportation pillar that was originally a false shot slowly decreased in brightness, and the smile of the starry snow appeared in front of the slime once again.
"You're smart enough to know when to make trade-offs. But because your procrastination makes me very unhappy, I'm going to raise the price. ”
Hearing Starry Snow say this, the slime's heart trembled, if it had that organ.
"You...... You, what more would you want?" it asked in a whispered voice with a crying voice.
"Don't worry, it's not very important. Since you don't want your water of life directly, then you can collect the organs of your life force and give me a set. I feel that your eaux-de-vie is still quite delicious as a drink, and I want to squeeze some of it myself when I get back to nothing. It's a little thing, no problem, right?"
It's just this, it's okay, it's okay. Hearing that Xingxi Baixue wanted to extract the life force from the planet by himself, the slime's heart fell again.
Its body is a tree, and all but a limited number of particularly important parts, such as the core, can grow naturally, and are also replaceable and insignificant. As the embodiment of the will of the planet, its root system is deeply rooted in the leylines of the planet and participates in the energy cycle of the planet. The roots that reach into the leylines are the tools it uses to gather life force. What Xingxi Baixue wants is just its whiskers, and compared with her previous request, what follows is really just an additive.
The payment of the remuneration is negotiated, and the rest is paid. The slime people are still quite straightforward in their work, after all, they are now thinking about sending the great god Xingxi Baixue away as soon as possible, and it is impossible to do things without being quick.
Soon, a roll of roots like cables, and a jade egg that was crystal clear on the surface but could not see the inside, floated up from the surface of the water of life and appeared at the feet of the starry snow.
The slimes didn't even look at the whiskers, but looked at them with pity...... Well, it's hard to get a slime to accurately express this emotion, but who has the device to sense other people's emotions on Starry Snow. The sad color is cool, blue or purple, and this is exactly the color of the slime under the emotional filter.
"This was supposed to be my successor, and I thought that after I left, she could continue to shepherd the planet in my place. ”
Starry Snow interrupted the slime's emotional outburst and said with a sneer, "Pull it down, don't be so hypocritical." When you leave, you will extract a lot of the life force of the entire planet, how many of these trees will be left on this planet? What will you leave to your successor, a vigorous and lush planet, or a planet with withered vegetation and a safe life? Do you want your successor to re-nurture the planet that you have taken away from your vitality, so that you can have another way out in the future? After all, it's hard to find a planet full of life in the universe, as long as you hide this planet, it will be your reserve resource. Am I right?"
“...... Don't think so badly of me, this is my planet after all, and I love it more than anything else. The slime pleaded palely, but Starry Snow waved his hand, too lazy to say anything more to it.
The teleportation pillar split into three, covering Xingxi Baixue and her two loot respectively. This time there was no surprise, the light flashed, and the starry white snow disappeared along with the green translucent jade egg and the whisker.
By the time Starry Snow left, the slimes must have done something again. But these have nothing to do with our text. Anyway, when we meet again, it's time for it to leave. It's just a small role that doesn't matter, and doesn't even deserve a formal name.
So let's take a look at Xingxi Baixue and the jade egg she brought back to the starship, this is the point.
After appearing in the teleportation room, Star-Tyric Snow creates two strange robots with four legs and a tray on their heads, and directs them to place their roots and jade eggs on the trays on their heads.
"One, send the Egg of Resurrection to the cultivation ship, the highest level of energy rationing, closely monitor the ecological situation, and notify me as soon as there is any change. ”
"Two, send the root to the Life Science Park, and let Camilla analyze it quickly. Directly converting the leylines into pure life force, this technology is quite interesting, and maybe it can produce some good results. ”
The two four-legged robots received the order and immediately clicked out of the room with running steps. Starry Snow stood in place for a few seconds, thought for a moment, and then used the portal on the wall to leave.
She went to the star map room on the bridge and re-routed the starship's flight trajectory to make it return in the direction of Mars.
This time, her purpose is actually the jade egg on this planet, that is, the "resurrection egg" in her mouth. Among the resurrected eggs was a revived Empress of the Star Curtain among their Star Dome Saint Clan. Although the specific identity will not be known until the resurrection egg is opened, the purpose of Xingxi Baixue's trip has been achieved.
The water of life, the green planet, the slimes, and of course, the armed raccoons that don't have a role to play, these creatures and these things are just the scenery in the middle of this journey. It's fun, but there's nothing to be nostalgic about.
After setting the route of the return, Xingxi Baixue raised her hands high, stretched her body, stretched comfortably, and let out a moan of "um~~". Then, she twisted her neck, went to the wall again, opened the portal, and jumped in.
All the things that need to be done are done, and now it's time to see how the unlovely juniors are doing.
