Chapter 532 When I Didn't Ask
If you compare Thousand Sails City to a flower.

Then the lower city is the rhizomes and branches.

Qianfan Race City is a delicate flower that absorbs all the nutrients and blooms.

Even on this cold winter night, the gorgeous neon lights still embellish this "City in the Sky" with splendor.

At this moment.

Under the orbit around the city, above a thousand meters above the sky, Qianfan races across the boulevard somewhere in the city.

The two strolled, the one on the left was a tall and handsome young man, and the one on the right was an old man with gray temples, who was rather muscular.

However, during the march, the young people are ahead, and the old people are still half a body behind.

Two pairs of black boots kept falling into the pure white snow, leaving a series of deep black marks.

"Have you watched the video?"

He raised his hand to pick a dead leaf that fell with the wind, put it in the street light, and asked softly while watching its veins.

"I just watched it, and I can confirm that it is the protagonist of Weird Studios five years ago. I didn't expect that he not only survived, but also participated in our actions in the grassroots community. The last scene of the video is provocative, hiding from XZ's mice, In this season of food scarcity, they will eventually come out to look for food."

"The stronghold of community 39 was taken over by him. The message from Nesta not long ago, Nohara, the mouse you mentioned is much stronger than imagined."

The young man stopped suddenly, turned to look at the old man next to him, with a smile on his face, but the dead leaves in his hands turned into powder and returned to the wind at some point.

"Sorry, it was my negligence!"

With a frozen expression on his face, the old man took a step back, bowed ninety degrees, and apologized.

"It seems that you only know about this, which makes me sad. I came to help you realize your dreams, but you are less concerned than me, Nohara Isshin, I know you have been busy promoting Wu's recently, but the bottom community It is also a key part of the plan, you are my ears and eyes, if I can't know these things from you, but have to be told by others, then what's the point of your existence?"

"I promise you this is the last time!"

Kneel on the ground, put your palms in front of your forehead and kowtow.

"Get up, I'm not a mean person. If you apologize to me, then I will forgive you. As for the mouse in the weird studio, I will find someone to deal with it. What you have to do is to determine him in the shortest possible time. In addition, before the plan to deploy additional manpower to the grassroots community is fully implemented, I don't want any mistakes to occur again."

Turning around and moving on, Nohara Yixin hurriedly followed, not even daring to brush off the snow on his knees and cuffs, allowing them to gradually melt away.

He walked forward for a while, and when the atmosphere calmed down a little, Nohara thought about what to say, but the situation just now made him shrink back, for fear that what he said would offend the other party, and the other party said he was not mean. People, he believed, but it was enough to forgive this kind of thing once, and he couldn't bear it again!

"Don't be scruples, I said, you are my eyes and ears, you should come in handy."

The young man didn't look back, but said as if seeing Nohara Isshin's expression.

"My lord, there are already signs of loosening in Wu's side. They agreed to send someone to try to accept our ceremony."

"It's a good job. If one hole is torn, the other ones will not be able to hold on one day."

Unknowingly, the two stepped up a ladder. The young man looked back while talking. The snow on the long street seemed a little dazzling in the light.

But those two sets of footprints completely destroyed the supposedly perfect artistic sense.

"I like this place, no matter how many times I watch this scene, I won't get tired of it"

Withdrawing his gaze, he turned and left.

It's just that when his words fell, the footprints in Nohara's eyes suddenly seemed like ink scattered into the water, and the dark things crazily devoured the pure white on the long street.

Blink in a trance.

Everything on the street is back to normal.

The snow is still there, and so is the darkness.

The place where the summoning ceremony is held is still the previous indoor billiard hall.

Zhu Jue made a special inspection when he entered the door. It seems that no one has entered since the last time he came in, and some dust has already accumulated on the ground.

After all, there was a first attempt. This time, both the drawing of the magic circle and the steps of casting the spell went smoothly. The only change is that Zhu Jue chanted an extra mantra in the last step.

In the twilight of the magic circle, the familiar ancient figure reappeared!
"You found the Gadamon daughter body?"

Compared with the alienation when they met for the first time, this time the ancient appeared directly in front of Zhu Jue, with curled tentacles floating in front of the latter.

"Of course, I killed an infected body, and cut its head open according to the method you said before. In fact, it was originally going to become a big puddle of weird black-purple colloid. The nature is close to that of Shoggoth, but more A bone tree that can bear fruit by absorbing the energy of the infected body, I have seen with my own eyes that it attracts the infected bodies under its control, and then sucks their energy through the tentacles on the branches of the bone tree, you know this technique ?"

Taking two steps back without any trace, Zhu Jue described the situation at that time, hoping to know more information through it.

"Low-level technology, Shoggoths are different from them. This is a way of energy collection, and the infected body is only a part of it. Give me the Gadamon daughter body."

Several tentacles stopped in front of Zhu Jue's body, constantly twisting to various angles. The things Zhu Jue mentioned seemed far less interesting to him than Gadamon's offspring.

Zhu Jue did not procrastinate, and directly took out the gadamon daughter body from the space ring. Compared with the echinoderm meat ball obtained before and the dark red fruit on the bone tree seen in community 37, this ball suspended in front of him The black substance that was constantly wriggling on the palm and exuding an extremely foul smell was undoubtedly even more uncomfortable.

Immediately after the ancient man took over Gadamon's daughter, he started the test. Several tentacles continuously hovered around it, and some light spots could be faintly seen pouring into it.

After about 10 minutes, the ancient man's movements gradually stopped.

"It's not enough. This part of the daughter body is not enough to transform your body. You have to adapt to them. There are no materials or equipment in this world."

Intermittent speech, the ancient seems to be thinking.

"The number of Gadamon daughters is not enough?"

Barely understanding part of the content, Zhu frowned and asked,
"If you want more, you have to find the same infected body. Although there is a target right now, how to destroy this infected body that has been completely spread out? If the transformed infected body is a few minutes late, I'm afraid it will be troublesome."

Solving the polluted area is a very urgent matter. Both the Qianfan City government and Zhu Jue want to know a clear method, not to mention that now it involves his own strength breakthrough, Zhu Jue can't help but feel a little anxious.

"Destroy the core. It absorbs energy through the bone tree and transforms it. As long as the bone tree is attacked, it will respond immediately."

"That answer is really straightforward."

The ancient man's answer can't be wrong, but it always sounds a little weird.

It is not an easy task to cross hundreds of meters of infection layer to attack the bone tree. Before approaching the bone tree, you must first resist the crazy attack of the tentacles formed by the black-purple colloid, and it is estimated that you will be focused by the infected bodies around it Take care, in the end, if there is no accident, you have to fight with the infected layer that has returned to the monster form.

Thinking about it this way, even Zhu Jue felt a little troublesome.

Not to mention the Thousand Sails City government.

Ordinary troops definitely can’t do it, and long-range bombing doesn’t seem to work because the network of the underlying community is cut off, and the bazooka is not powerful enough, unless long-range missiles are used
blow yourself up?
As long as the senior officials of the Qianfan City government are still mentally healthy, they will not do this kind of thing.

Don't look at the generals in American blockbusters clamoring all day long to use nuclear bombs and atomic bombs to blow up monsters, it sounds like a lot of fun.

In fact, if this is really done, no matter what the original intention is, the person who issued this order and its executors will undoubtedly be nailed to the pillar of shame in history by the surviving people forever.

Of course, under special circumstances, no matter whether the atomic bomb is to blow up monsters or accelerate the mutation of monsters, someone has to be sacrificed, right?
But the problem is that the current low-level communities are still not at the level where the Thousand Sails City government can use missile bombing recklessly.

"Spiritual body form, unable to carry equipment and materials, and Gadameng offspring cannot be transformed."

The old man repeated what he said just now, this time in more detail.

Zhu Jue froze in place after listening, and immediately realized an important issue that he had neglected before.

The ancient said that he would use the Gadamon daughter body to transform him, but the ancient man summoned by the contact technique told him that he didn't even have a body, let alone use the Gadamon daughter body.

However, the effect of the medicine of Pluto in his hand is also similar to the contact technique. It is the soul traveling through time and space. Zhu Jue doesn't remember that there is a record in the ancient text of the ruins that he can bring things back from the "immortal world".

"what is it now?"

After a long silence, Zhu Jue could only open his hands and ask the old man.

"We have a special technology. It has not disappeared in our civilization. It can transmit materials through different dimensions. The premise is that you must have the ability to establish coordinates. I cannot establish coordinates in this world in this form."

"Wait, if my soul goes to you, you are in a physical state, can you let me return with the coordinates?"

"."

Perhaps it was the first time I met a human being who proposed such an idea. Even the ancient fell into silence for a while, and then said with his mind after a while,

"We haven't tried anything like this before. Maybe we can succeed. Traveling through time and space is not easy. Even if you manage to do it, you will be chased by monsters who live in the perspective of time as prey. Even we cannot guarantee that we will be able to expel Those monsters, you have to fight it alone and expel it, in order to survive."

"Compared to this monster, I actually want to know another thing. Why are you willing to help me?"

Compared with discussing those unknown monsters, Zhu Jue was more worried about the attitude shown by the ancients.

You must know that in order to liberate the soul, Zhu Jue used the crystal of the ancients to trade with the great race, but the ancients summoned by the contact technique never mentioned the price Zhu Jue had to pay.

This not only did not make Zhu Jue feel happy, but made him more uneasy.

Will ancient intelligent races help humans for no reason?
Zhu Jue didn't think he was the kind of person who was favored by the ancients in the "Nakt Manuscript"!

"This is an experiment. You voluntarily become the subject of our research on Mi Go technology. If you fail, you will completely become a monster. Do you think it is helping?"

"When I didn't ask!"

It turns out that Zhu Jue was overthinking what to expect from these rational guys.

　Sorry, Calvin, it should be too late for the third watch, and it will be postponed until tomorrow!
