Future Crystal Crown

The one running around like a fool in the corridor seemed to have heard Qiu's cry, so it turned back and came to the door of the office.

I don't know what stimulated it, it seemed to suddenly enter a state of madness.

It stretched out a tentacle-like thing that looked like a whip at an extremely fast speed, and hooked the attacker who happened to be by the office door's neck.With a strong pull, the assailant was pulled into the corridor.

Neither Qiu nor the two girls saw what happened next.Because Qiu seized the opportunity with the reaction speed of a special operator, and immediately dropped the isolation door made of thick steel plates, isolating himself from the attacker and the unknown object.

Then the bloody scene at the beginning appeared in the corridor.

The skilful assailant was like a disassembled toy in the mass's hands.It frantically disassembled the toy, but within ten seconds it tore off his limbs and emptied all his internal organs.

Then that mass of things tore all the internal organs one by one, making them so broken that they couldn't be broken any more.Then it pulled out a silk-like thing from its body and came to the corpse, and saw off the head of the corpse.

It lifted the man's head and put it on its head like a hat, walked excitedly in the corridor, and knocked on the iron door of the office.

Of course the iron door wouldn't open, it leaned against the iron door with some disappointment and continued to play with the corpse.Like a butcher, it chopped off the attacker's ribs one by one, snapped all the long bones in the limbs...

Then, it touched the iron door again, trying to open the iron door, but the iron door still wouldn't open.It was like a child playing alone who couldn't find a companion, walked up and down the corridor in frustration, and finally retreated listlessly into the door it came from...

When all the videos were played and the lights came back on, everyone in the conference room felt like their hearts had run a marathon.

This is indeed a very terrifying killing.And that unknown object appeared in less than an hour's flight distance from him.

If there are many of its kind, then an emergency evacuation may be necessary tonight.

Tomorrow morning the whole universe will be shocked.Human society is bound to usher in yet another unprecedented panic.

"Where is that thing now?" someone asked.

"We blocked all the exits of the warehouse and the surrounding area, and sent three times more troops to search. But so far, we haven't found it yet," Philip said.

"Can you be sure what it is?" someone asked again.

"That's one of the purposes of my calling this meeting, to confirm its identity." Fili said, looking at Elson and Haines. "I hope the Ministry of Science and Technology will give some advice from a professional perspective."

Elson's zombie face remained the same for thousands of years, and he didn't respond to the question.

Haines frowned and turned to look at Qiu. "Lieutenant Cook, judging from the way this thing saws people, is it similar to what Ramon and the others encountered before?"

"Yes, it is the characteristic of the ancient horse tree." Qiu has already determined what it is since the guy sawed a person.And this incident proves once again that monkeys are not magicians who create illusions, but the ancient man Ma Shu is the one with supernatural powers.

They have the ability to create illusions to confuse people, and they also have the hobby of killing and dismembering corpses.

"Is there a record of this tree in the warehouse inventory?" Admiral Troll asked Fili.

Phil shook his head. "I checked, and there are no ancient centaurs or plants in the warehouse inventory."

"It's a box. The box in the warehouse stores the Sagittarius rock specimens." Qiu said suddenly.

Although his voice became weak due to the injury, his thinking did not stop for a moment.

And everyone in the room knew what he did on Sagittarius. At the moment, he is the person who has the most research on the Sagittarius tree. As long as he speaks, everyone will listen intently.

Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and said to everyone as loudly as possible: "The lowest warehouse, the lower floor of the innermost room, there are three boxes. Inside are samples of Sagittarius rocks. The boxes are made of trees from the Sagittarius Forest. The Sagittarius Forest quickly Expansion, they may be activated by sensing the movement of some celestial bodies under suitable conditions." Qiu said.

"It can be revived even if it has become a plank?" Even General Troll couldn't believe it.

The box came to life, grew into a tree running all over the ground, and could kill people everywhere.If this is true, then for tens of millions of years people have cut down forests to make wooden products to store things. There are countless such boxes in the universe.

What would happen if they all came to life one after another and turned into murderers wandering around?

"Notify the anti-riot team, prepare flamethrowers and chainsaws, and go to check the boxes containing Sagittarius rocks in the warehouse on the ground floor..." Everyone was buzzing, and Philip had already issued an order to the front-line search personnel.Not only the warehouse guarded by Qiu, but also all boxes marked by horse stars in other warehouses need to be found and cleared.

"Can you find out from the video when this thing started?" Troll asked Fili.

"Yes." Feili nodded. Just now, his subordinates have found the earliest fuzzy record in the vast surveillance data.

"From the perspective of time, this thing existed before Qiu arrived in the warehouse." Fili looked at the time display above. "At least half a year."

Qiu calculated in his mind that it was the time when the Sagittarius forest began to mutate and a large number of missing people appeared.

It seems that although Sagittarius is far away from here, its energy is not trivial.

Centaurus' celestial cycles can be felt in the Sagittarius trees billions of light-years away.They will sprout with the trees on Sagittarius, grow together, wander around together and kill together.Even if they have been made into boxes...

Is this what Qijun said they are the kings of the universe and they can "fly" to any place in the universe?

First in the form of wood, it was transported to all parts of the universe without any precautions by human beings for many years, and then resurrected at a certain moment at the same time, killing human beings by surprise.

If this is the case, is it too late to find out now?

Qiu felt cold sweat protruding from his body, and he felt cold even now because he was afraid of the cold because of the heat.

"Does it hurt?" Ferin, who had been sitting beside Qiu, noticed Qiu's discomfort and touched Qiu's forehead. "You're burning hot, why don't I take you out first."

"No, brother." Qiu didn't care about resting.

"I have a question, why did this thing only attack the man in black who visited temporarily but not Lieutenant Cook who walked around the warehouse every day?" someone asked.

"Here are some very interesting videos, maybe they can answer your questions, let's watch them together." Fili started playing the videos again.

Video clips of the thing appearing are cut out and played in chronological order.

It can be seen that it started out with no purpose and no interest in people.It wanders around when the storekeeper is away, and hides when the storekeeper is present.So Fili never saw Qiu from the monitor, because he hid early.

But then suddenly one day, that thing excitedly followed Qiu for a long distance.

Then, like a child waiting for its mother to get off work, it ran out and stood behind the door waiting for Qiu when it was time for Qiu to patrol.When Qiu went down the stairs, it went downstairs, and when Qiu entered the floors, it followed him. Wherever Qiu went, it followed behind. Sometimes the distance was unbelievably close, but it was careful not to let Qiu find it.

The two of them walked back and forth in the dark underground palace like humans and ghosts patrolling together, but Qiu never noticed its existence.

Many times when Qiu slept in the room, it stood outside Qiu's door, quietly waiting for Qiu to wake up like a puppy guarding the door.

Among the many video materials, there is a picture that is very intriguing.It's a shot taken obliquely from a stairway.In the frame, Yau is seen sitting in the office through the open door, and the thing is squatting outside the office door.Qiu was in a daze with his head supported on one arm, and that thing was also supporting a branch with a branch, and Xue Qiu was in a daze.

Qiu changed his posture and lay down on the table, and the thing was also lying on the ground. The two were separated by a wall, with the same movements and expressions.

Then Yau turned on the music player on the communicator, and the guy perked up.

Across a wall, they listened to music together.Hearing a certain place, Qiu swayed slightly to the rhythm, and the thing also swayed to the rhythm.

Two equally lonely creatures, one inside the door and the other outside the door, sway their bodies gently in the same way with the same rhythm across a wall. The scene is warm and beautiful, surprising but also slightly sour.

Qiu was also taken aback.

Unexpectedly, when I was the loneliest, I was not the only one in the warehouse.There is a creature right next to him.It silently accompanied him, sharing his joys, sorrows, sorrows, and joys, but if the attacker hadn't appeared, he wouldn't even know it existed.

Qiu couldn't tell whether it was joy or fear in his heart. If it wasn't for the help of this tree, he couldn't escape the attacker's palm, but if this tree was discovered in this way, what would it do if it was discovered? Would people discover it one day? I died in the warehouse...

"That's probably why it never killed Yau. It likes Yau's music," Logue said to General Troll.

"Well, it seems so." Rogge also nodded.

"Can we hear what the lieutenant is listening to?" someone asked curiously.

Fili asks Roger for advice.

Roger smiled bitterly, and nodded to indicate that he could let it go.Now that it's time, there's no need to hide anything.
