The closer to the tenth district, the heavier the physical burden. Even after two days of adaptation in the isolation zone, when Lin Qin was able to see the tenth district from a distance, he could feel the overwhelmed signal from his body.

Lin Qin supported Gilbert with a pale face. The feeling of his stomach being pulled by gravity made him almost sick, but he still held on and walked forward.

Gilbert frowned: "Or I will take you outside, and you will wait for me in the city near the tenth district?"

Lin Qin shook his head and said, "It's okay, although it's a little uncomfortable, but I can still hold on."

At this time, they were already in a forest. If it wasn't for the obvious difference in vegetation and tree species, Lin Qin almost thought they had returned to the ninth district.

It's not as good as the ninth district, Lin Qin thought silently as he stroked his twitching stomach.

Because the field of view was completely blocked, no matter how tall and obvious the tree of heaven was, they couldn't find the corresponding direction, so they had to let Gilbert fly up to check the direction of the tree of sky every once in a while.

Although Gilbert didn't say anything, Lin Qin could clearly see that the opponent's movements of flying and landing were very rapid. It should be because the flight consumes too much energy. Even Gilbert would feel strenuous, right?

Lin Qin couldn't help asking: "Has the tenth district been like this since the beginning?"

Gilbert was stunned by this question, and he said after a while: "Probably not. Before the first genetic evolution, all places were inhabited by humans, and there were no so-called undeveloped areas. The triple gravity is obviously not enough." It is suitable for human survival, if it existed at that time, there should be more or less records."

Lin Qin nodded thoughtfully: "In other words, triple gravity happened later. After all, Carter's ancestor Yiri was an ordinary person who had not undergone transformation. If there was triple gravity at that time, he would not A laboratory should be built in this place."

Lin Qin thought for a while, and then said, "Is it possible that Yiri left the tenth district because of the appearance of triple gravity?"

"We can't rule out this possibility," Gilbert said, "but what's going on, we still have to find the laboratory."

While supporting Gilbert forward, Lin Qin wanted to find something to divert his attention, but after thinking about it, he found that there was no easy topic to talk about, so he said, "I don't know where Adonis is now. Death is life, did you have a bad relationship with him when you were young?"

Gilbert thought for a while, and said, "I don't think there is anything wrong with my relationship with him. Maybe he has a different perspective from mine, so the feeling will be different."

Lin Qin recalled that Gilbert corrected himself solemnly before that he and Adonis were not brothers, so he could almost imagine Gilbert's attitude towards the other party.

After all, it wasn't Gilbert's angry words, but what he thought in the first place.

However, after listening to Tang talk about the conversation between Gilbert and Adonis at that time, the other party didn't seem to have that much resentment towards Gilbert, but instead had a lot of complaints about Gilbert's mother.

"Is Pengpeng's mother treating Adonis badly?" Lin Qin asked.

Gilbert shook his head: "No, Maya is very partial to that guy, saying that he needs love and care, and he can't make him feel like an outsider... It's just Adonis' own problem. He seems to think that Maya lied and said love He actually loves me the most."

Lin Qin: "...that is indeed his own problem."

Gilbert nodded in agreement: "Maya's favorite person should be my father, I really don't understand what's going on in his mind."

Lin Qin: "...it seems very reasonable to say so."

With that said, the two had already entered the area of ​​the tenth district. Lin Qin breathed a sigh of relief while feeling his body protesting.

It's finally over, he won't be more uncomfortable than now, Lin Qin thought.

Although it is necessary to adapt slowly, it is getting more and more uncomfortable along the way, as if the feeling of not seeing the end is actually more difficult than the negative effects of gravity itself.

But at least it was the end, Lin Qin let out a breath, feeling that triple gravity was nothing more than that.

Lin Qin got used to it a little bit. Although the hand supporting Gilbert was still on his arm, he used less strength.

Gilbert noticed this, and finally felt relieved.

The two walked towards the tree of the sky.

It has to be said that the area of ​​the tenth district is actually much larger than that of the ninth district. No matter how they go, the tree of the sky stands there far away. Lin Qin even wonders if they have encountered some maze.

Gilbert said: "It's not a maze. The tenth district is indeed so big. When I was thrown in, it took a lot of effort to get out. My parents picked it up because they lost their way in the tenth district." to Adonis."

Lin Qin felt a little relieved.

The two walked for a while. In order to prevent them from wandering unintentionally, Gilbert spread his wings and flew out of the canopy that covered the sky to check the direction of the sky tree.

Just as Gilbert left Lin Qin and flew into the sky, a huge golden bird suddenly jumped out from the middle of the bushes in a blink of an eye, and knocked Lin Qin to the ground. Lin Qin only had time to see the color of the opponent's feathers clearly , the huge hook-shaped beak had already pecked at Lin Qin's face.

The skull of an ordinary human cannot possibly be stronger than this beak.

Lin Qin yelled and tried to block the opponent's attack with his hands. If he was really pecked hard, Lin Qin's two arms would be broken or broken, but as long as his head was not pecked, Gilbert should have time to rescue him. he.

Just as Lin Qin closed his eyes and waited for the sharp beak to fall on him, another person rushed out from the slanting spine, kicked the golden bird on the head, and kicked the whole bird away.

The kicked golden bird rolled around on the ground and flopped twice before standing still. The feathers on its neck exploded, and it screamed angrily at the person who came. The person spread his wings and sang to the golden bird. Bird froze for a moment, looking at him suspiciously.

Gilbert had already touched the crown of the tree when he heard Lin Qin's call, and immediately folded his wings, and swooped down like a sharp arrow off the string, but when he arrived, the person who suddenly appeared had already started to confront the golden bird .

Gilbert ignored them, but quickly helped Lin Qin up and asked, "Are you injured?"

That person appeared very quickly, Lin Qin was not injured, but his heart, which was already under a lot of pressure, was suddenly frightened, which made him a little dizzy.

After Lin Qin breathed a sigh of relief, the golden bird seemed to have confirmed the identity of the visitor, and left timidly.

Lin Qin raised his head and found that Gilbert was also looking at that person.

Lin Qin turned his head to look, and the other party's iconic golden hair reminded him of his identity for a moment, and exclaimed, "Adonis?"

Adonis looked a little different from before, the haze on his face faded, and his complexion became rosy. His wings that were broken by Gilbert in the battle had grown back, and he was obediently lying behind him, but Gilbert looked at him. When he came over, he still put his wings away.

This action means that in the evolution of birds, people do not want to fight.

Gilbert also put away his wings. He didn't seem surprised by the appearance of Adonis, and there was no trace of ridicule or other emotions towards the loser in his expression.

Gilbert just said in a normal tone: "Thank you."

Adonis shook his head: "I didn't want to save him, I just didn't want my people to be killed by you."

There is a lot of information in this sentence, Lin Qin was stunned for a moment before asking: "Clan people?"

Was it the bird that attacked him just now?

Speaking of which, the golden bird just now was indeed similar in coat color to Adonis, and the wings that Adonis spread out just now were exactly the same as the golden bird just now.

Gilbert frowned and didn't ask any more questions, just said: "We are going to Tianzhimu, are you familiar with this place?"

Adonis smiled: "Do you need a guide? Unfortunately, although this is my hometown, I have only been back for a few days."

"Then you want to go find the Tree of Heaven with us?" Gilbert asked.

Lin Qin elbowed Gilbert in embarrassment, thinking that Gilbert would not really want to take Adonis back to help him approve the documents, would he?Although the grievances between Adonis and Gilbert have been resolved, the other party is the culprit behind their coming here, and Will lost his sanity because of this guy, even though the other party saved his life just now...

But no matter what, they used to be old enemies anyway, so it's a bit too embarrassing to just go on the road together like this!

Speaking of which, Adonis doesn't like Gilbert, so he should refuse such an inexplicable proposal without hesitation, right?

Unexpectedly, Adonis actually said to Gilbert under Lin Qin's expectant eyes: "Why?"

"You just found your relatives, right? Don't you want to know why they became like this?" Gilbert looked at Adonis and said in a deep voice, "Yiri's laboratory is in the Skywood, where there are The answer you want."

Lin Qin looked at Gilbert in bewilderment, is there such a thing?Carter didn't seem to have said that, did he?

Adonis glanced at Lin Qin and said with a smile, "That's not what he said."

Gilbert glanced down at Lin Qin.

Lin Qin: "???"

Gilbert: "..."

Gilbert reached out and pressed Lin Qin's head into his arms, and said, "I just found out about it."

Adonis raised an eyebrow.

"Yi Ri, the founder of the first genetic enhancement project, you should have heard that his laboratory is located within the Skywood in the tenth district."

"You have already said this matter, so what does it have to do with my relatives?"

"The golden bird just now is just an ordinary beast, but it is exactly the same as your original form. There is no other possibility except that it is your relative. But you are standing here in a human form, In the tenth district, only Yiri's laboratory may have something that can make a beast evolve into a human being."

Adonis didn't feel offended by Gilbert's speculation at all, he just looked at Gilbert quietly and said, "This weird forest is so huge, how do you know that there won't be anything else here that can challenge you?" Transformation of ordinary beasts?"

"This forest is huge. I really don't know if there will be something like what you said elsewhere, but you should understand which side is more likely."

Gilbert kept his mouth shut, waiting for Adonis to make up his mind.

Adonis thought for a while, and said: "What you said is indeed very reasonable. I will go to Tianzhimu to have a look, but I won't be with you."

Lin Qin heaved a sigh of relief. Adonis looked at his expression and raised the corners of his lips: "Although Gilbert didn't pay much attention to me, I still know his nature very well. I want me to go back and criticize him for you." File? Doesn't exist."

Lin Qin: "...to be seen through at a glance."

Gilbert: "..."

Adonis said: "I have watched the previous video, and I really feel Maya's love, but I can see Gilbert's ignorance of me as an older brother. Even if the grievances have been resolved, I will not I intend to deal with you again."

Gilbert looked at him for a while, then said stubbornly, "I'm not your brother."

Adonis raised his eyebrows indifferently: "As long as you are happy."

After Adonis finished speaking, he was about to leave. Lin Qin couldn't help but said to him: "What about the victims of the genetic evolution project?! They all lost their sanity and became no different from beasts!"

Adonis paused and didn't look back: "Those who advocate purifying genes lose their sanity, isn't it good for you genetic losers?"

"Although it's a bit inexplicable to say this, the solution to the problem is definitely not to make people unable to speak out if they have wrong ideas. There is always a way to solve the problem of discrimination, not to mention that some of them are not from purification organizations. Yes!" Lin Qin said loudly.

Adonis couldn't help but look back at Lin Qin: "Interesting."

Adonis closed his eyes for a moment: "I seem to understand why those people like to hang out with genetic losers so much. You are really interesting."

Lin Qin: "Don't say such nonsense, anyway, it's what you did. Although I didn't expect you to solve it alone, I can help you to some extent!"

Adonis raised his eyebrows: "I see, I will help."

Lin Qin heaved a sigh of relief, and waved his hands as if chasing away mosquitoes: "Then you go quickly."

Adonis: "..."

In the end, he just left.

Gilbert originally wanted to trick Adonis to go to Tianzhimu, and then lure him back to Wangcheng as a hard laborer after the matter was resolved, but he didn't expect that he would be exposed as soon as he opened his mouth. When he thought about the things he would face after returning, his mental state suddenly Not good.

Lin Qin: "...It's not necessary, is it?"

Gilbert didn't speak, and it took a long time before he said, "Adonis can't help much."

Although the other party does not go all the way with them, the final destination is the tree of the sky, at most front and rear feet, if there is any extra help, it actually does not exist.

Lin Qin didn't think much about it. After Gilbert said it, he scratched his head and said, "After all, he caused the trouble. Even if it can't help you, you should do something. You can't just let it go." .”

Gilbert actually felt that this was an unnecessary thing, but thinking that it would be a waste of effort, it was Adonis' effort, so he let him go.

The two of them walked in the forest of the tenth district for a full three days before they could vaguely see the gigantic sky tree through the layers of trees.

Along the way, they encountered many species that they had never seen before, but the golden bird never appeared again. It may be that Adonis conveyed the message to his group not to get close to Lin Qin and Gilbert.

Lin Qin was completely used to the weight on his body. Although it was a bit uncomfortable, he was able to move freely.When Gilbert pointed out to him that the trees that looked like a city wall not far away were the trees of the sky, Lin Qin almost cried with joy.

But when he got closer, Lin Qin couldn't be happier.

The tree of the sky can become a symbol in a place like the tenth district, with its canopy reaching straight into the clouds, so its stature cannot be easily measured like other trees.

When Lin Qin was in District [-], the trees Lin Qin had seen were as thick as houses. At first glance, the Tree of Heaven thought it was a city wall that could not be seen. You have to walk around the wall.

Lin Qin: "...It's really exhausting to think that there is still a long way to go when you arrive at your destination."

Gilbert looked up at the Sky Tree, which could not see the top of the tree, and said, "It has grown for hundreds of years since Yiri left. It is not clear which part of the tree the laboratory is in."

Fortunately, Yiri built the laboratory at the root of the tree back then, so they looked up and turned around a few times, maybe they could still find it. If it was in the middle of the tree, Gilbert would have to fly around the tree at least a few times. Dozens of laps, even if Gilbert can do it, he won't have the strength to deal with the danger that may arise at any time after he comes down.

Lin Qin said: "Even if the Tree of Heaven was not as big as it is now hundreds of years ago, it should not be so small. Yiri is an ordinary person who has not undergone transformation. If he does research every day, his physical fitness should not be that strong. It is impossible to build the laboratory in the middle of the tree out of thin air, otherwise it will be troublesome to enter and exit every time. Even if it is built in the middle, there must be a passage that can directly enter the laboratory. Let's look around and we will definitely find it .”

What Lin Qin said made sense. Yiri is just a researcher, not a soldier. His laboratory must have a passage, and it will be very hidden. Although it doesn't take much effort to fly, it should be very troublesome to find.

"It would be great if we brought Joe or Abel here," Gilbert said.

But I can only think about it, Abel was still in the hospital when they came out.

Lin Qin sighed, and resignedly drew a shallow mark on the tree in front of him, and started to find the entrance while supporting the tree of heaven.

Lin Qin carefully observed the tree, occasionally looking up, or stepping on the ground under his feet, Gilbert followed behind him, and occasionally found something that seemed to be a clue, so he flew up to take a look.

The two of them tossed and tossed for a long time before they walked a short distance. Lin Qin couldn't help but said, "If we keep looking like this, when will we end?"

Gilbert shook his head, looked up and found a piece of bark on it that was slightly lighter in color, so he spread his wings and flew up to have a look. It was a piece of bark that had been cut off. It seemed that many years had passed, if it wasn't for Gilbert His eyesight is good enough to be absolutely invisible.

Gilbert touched the piece of bark, tapped it again, and after making sure it was just a common tree scar that he didn't know how to make, he fell back to the ground.

Gilbert wanted Lin Qin to continue walking, but he didn't expect that the place where Lin Qin was standing just now was empty, and there was only a dark pit left.

Gilbert's heart tightened, and he immediately jumped down from the hole.

After a while, a person stood up from the dense grass next to him.

Lin Qin, who thought he found the entrance but turned out to be a rabbit hole, looked around, but couldn't find Gilbert, so he shouted loudly to the sky: "Pengpeng! Did you fly up again? What's on it, look Is it over?"

No echo.

Lin Qin was worried that the other party went in alone, so he shouted again: "Pengpeng, are you there? Don't go in alone. Let's discuss something!"

After a while, there was still no answer.

Lin Qin felt that something was wrong: "...Pengpeng?"

It was so quiet in the forest that not even the chirping of insects was heard.

Lin Qin: "..."

Is it possible to get lost in this situation? !

The author has something to say: _(:зゝ∠)_Don’t take it for granted, Gilbert
