The Return of Cambrian Period
Chapter 47
A week later, the large army returned to Tianqi in batches with people, weapons, and equipment.
After the transport plane arrived at Apocalypse, they were welcomed by the people on their way back to the Academy of Sciences. Their achievements have spread all over the country, and even the whole world. The news of their victory over the giant ocean beasts is a great surprise to these ordinary people who are always in fear. That said, it is undoubtedly a great encouragement.Moreover, the energy spent by the Academy of Sciences and the military on preparing for the South China Sea can finally be transferred to human reconstruction. The victory in the South China Sea is the beginning of a new life for ordinary people.
After returning to the dormitory of the Academy of Sciences, Cong Xia had a good night's sleep. The next day, he was woken up by a knock on the door, and Mu Fei's brisk voice sounded outside the door: "Cong Xia, I made your favorite steamed buns. Get up and eat."
As soon as Cong Xia heard about the steamed buns, she got up and went too late to ensure that there would be no one left.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Deng Xiao held three steamed buns in each of his left and right hands, and was eating hazelnuts. Deng Jieyun looked at her son with a look of resentment.
Deng Xiao took a sip of water: "You guys are late, hiccup... such delicious buns, I didn't get up early."
Cong Xia scolded with a smile: "Mu Fei left it for us, everyone is as heartless as you."
Mu Fei brought out some steamed buns and said with a smile, "Come on, this one belongs to you, this one is loose."
Opening the steamer, a white mist rushed out, and the white mist cleared. The ones placed in front of Cong Xia were normal steamed buns, while the ones placed in front of Devil Song were twelve fat, white buns in the shape of rabbits.
"Wow, it's really fun." Deng Xiao excitedly reached out and wanted to take it.
Devil Pine's eyes flashed, a branch grabbed Deng Xiao's arm, and he said coldly, "No, sure, touch."
Mu Fei smiled embarrassedly: "This, it specifically wants."
Deng Xiao withdrew his hand aggrievedly.
Devil Song picked up a little white rabbit with chopsticks, put it to his mouth and blew gently.
Mu Fei smiled and said, "This time it's a little rabbit, what do you want next time?"
Devil Song thought for a while: "Anyway, I don't want an octopus."
Mu Fei rubbed his head: "Eat."
Cong Xia thought to himself, these two people obviously look exactly the same, but the way they get along is becoming more and more like father and son.
Deng Xiao said excitedly: "I've already thought about what I'm going to eat these days, milk tea, cakes, dumplings, coconut chicken soup..."
Cong Xia teased him: "Let's eat fish, we have a pile of frozen fish that we can't finish eating."
Deng Xiao waved his hands again and again: "No, no, I feel sick just looking at the fish."
Liu Fengyu grinned: "It is estimated that no one will want to eat fish in a short time."
Tang Yanqiu said with a smile: "Except for Abu."
Cong Xia said: "Abu is very happy this time." He suddenly remembered something, and asked Deng Jieyun: "Sister Deng, do you plan to stay longer this time?"
Deng Jieyun shook her head: "I'm going back tomorrow, there's nothing suitable for praying mantises to eat here."
Deng Xiaohu stopped his hand and said with a sad face: "Mom, you just stayed for a few days and then went back."
Deng Jieyun rubbed his short stubble hair: "If you miss me, go and see me. It's not too far to go back and forth."
"Mom, what do you want to eat, what do you want, I will prepare it for you, I live well here, it will be even better if you are here..."
Deng Jieyun shrugged: "No way, I have won their loyalty and service, and I have to assume the responsibility of leading and protecting them." She smiled, "Son, go and prepare some beautiful clothes for me."
"no problem."
Cheng Tianbi said solemnly: "Sister Deng, thank you for your help."
Deng Jieyun smiled triumphantly: "When I appeared on stage, were you so moved that you were about to cry?"
Cong Xia smiled and said: "Not only that, I almost wanted to kneel down to the goddess, you saved all of us at a critical moment."
Deng Jieyun smiled and bent her beautiful eyes: "I am here this time, and there is one more thing that I need your help with."
"You said."
"I heard about the reconstruction plan of the Academy of Sciences. In remote areas like Yunnan, people will migrate to the Central Plains, right?"
"That's it."
"Exactly, you don't care about this place in Yunnan in the future, leave it to me, I can guarantee that my people will not step out of that land, such a big province is enough for us to hunt and reproduce, and we will live in peace with human beings forever thing."
Cong Xia nodded and said: "Okay, I believe the Academy of Sciences is willing to do this favor."
Deng Jieyun nodded: "Before I leave, let them give me an answer."
The next day, they sent Deng Jieyun away together, and the Academy of Sciences agreed to her request without accident, and prepared many gifts for her, such as clothes, skin care products, food, weapons, energy, etc., to express their gratitude. Things are far from enough to repay her friendship at a critical moment.
Deng Jieyun left with the praying mantis army. When the emerald green cloud flew over Beijing, everyone looked up and watched this powerful race cross the blue sky and disappear into the distance.
Cong Xia patted Deng Xiao on the back: "We will accompany you to see her next time."
Deng Xiao blinked his red eye circles: "Okay."
Back at the Academy of Sciences, Cong Zhenzhong called them into the meeting room: "How did you rest these two days?"
Cong Xia said: "It's okay, it's time to slow down, what about the others? Are you awake?"
"All awake."
Cong Xia sighed, "It's a miracle that 13 people went and 13 people returned."
"It is indeed a miracle." Cong Zhenzhong said, "The puppet jade from Russia and the United States has arrived in the laboratory. So far, we have collected all the fragments."
"Then, next..."
"Next, we will take the puppet jade to Qinghai."
Liu Fengyu smiled wryly, "We are really inseparable from Qinghai."
Cong Xia nodded and said, "If you want to seal it, that's probably the only suitable place."
Zhuang Yao said: "When do you plan to act?"
Cong Zhenzhong sighed: "It's not yet decided, once we act, we will be sentenced to life and death immediately."
Cong Xia was filled with emotion.If they don't go, at least they can live a peaceful and good life for a few years, but once they go, they will get the final result. If the result is not what they want, they will have nowhere to escape but slow down. Waiting for death, such despair, not everyone can bear.
Cheng Tianbi said: "The worst thing is, we should still live for a few more years, and we will have to face it sooner or later, so there is no need to hesitate."
Zhuang Yao said: "I agree, if we fail, we should make early plans to delay our death." He looked at Cong Xia: "Then who will go? This trip will be very dangerous. When the puppet jade is combined, we must It will generate huge energy. Cong Xia must go, and I will go too."
Cheng Tianbi said: "I will definitely go."
Deng Xiao said, "I'll go too."
Tang Yanqiu said: "Let's go together, we have already walked so far side by side, there is no reason to separate now."
Liu Fengyu nodded and said, "Yes, we..."
"Everyone..." Cong Xia took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Let me and Tianbi go alone this time. If we succeed, we will come back and reunite with everyone. If we fail, at least you can live longer For a few years, this is not a problem that can be solved by a large number of people, and I absolutely cannot watch you die in vain, so no matter what you say, just the two of us will go, and there will be no one else."
Zhuang Yao crossed his arms and said, "You are right, too many people are useless, but you will definitely need an excellent brain, so I must go."
Cong Xia said: "Zhuang Yao..."
"Don't talk about it. When you arrive in Qinghai, many things need temporary thinking, analysis and judgment. With your mediocre brains, can you deal with emergencies? You have to bring a brain evolution person, don't you want it to be Professor Cong? go?"
Cong Zhenzhong said: "I can..."
Zhuang Yao waved his hand: "You are the pillar of the Academy of Sciences and the core of the entire human reconstruction plan. You must not have any accidents, so I will go, so it is settled."
Cong Zhenzhong sighed: "Dr. Xiaozhuang is right, just the three of you go."
Deng Xiao frowned and said, "Brother Cong..."
Cong Xia smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have high hopes for the five-color stone, and I believe we will come back."
Walking out of the conference room, Cong Xia looked at Cheng Tianbi: "I originally hoped that you would not go, but..."
Cheng Tianbi said firmly: "I will definitely go."
"I know, so you see, I didn't stop you."
Liu Fengyu patted him on the back: "Even if you don't let us go to the restricted area, at least let us go to Qinghai together."
Deng Xiao nodded vigorously: "The six of us are always together, and we must be together wherever we go."
Zhuang Yao kicked him: "You idiot, don't talk like you want to die together."
Deng Xiao grabbed his neck and shook his fist in his face: "Stinky boy, you have grown up now, and you don't have the right to amnesty for children. Be careful, I will beat you up."
Cong Xia watched the two bickering with a smile, feeling warm in her heart.He silently prayed that this scene in front of him would be seen many, many times in his later life, until they grew old together.
Before leaving, they relaxed to their heart's content.
They took Mu Fei and Devil Pine to play around, took Abu, Nini, and Abu’s friends to take a bath and do facials, they invited many people to camp and have picnics, celebrated the victory of the South China Sea War, and drank until they got drunk every day , singing and laughing unscrupulously, living a life of drunkenness and dreams.
During this time, they had no heavy physical training, no [-]-hour daily practice, no "next task" hanging around their necks, no puppet jade wandering outside that made them anxious, no crisis, no worry, Nothing at all.They eat and drink to their heart's content, cherish every minute and every second with their friends, laugh wantonly, and enjoy the best treatment they deserve in the apocalyptic era.
Every picture during these days is worthy of their collection in the bottom of their hearts.
At the end of the month, when the last puppet jade fragment arrived in Beijing, Cong Xia knew that the time had come.
With their simple luggage, they came to the helipad in the backyard, where the team responsible for transporting the puppet jade had already been waiting there.
Cong Xia looked at the big box on the trailer: "So big?"
Cong Zhenzhong said: "It's just that big."
Despite going through 27 energy shielding devices, Cong Xia can still feel the huge Cambrian energy emanating from it. The iron box is protected layer by layer, which is the most terrifying energy body on the planet. It contains enough energy to change the world. No, it has changed the world, and it will make the world worse.
For some reason, Zhuang Yu was also there. He knocked on the box with his fingers and smiled at Zhuang Yao: "I really didn't expect things to come to this point."
Zhuang Yao snorted coldly: "Do you think the previous fights are meaningless?"
Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "It's meaningful to survive."
Cong Xia was a little emotional.When they first arrived in Beijing more than two years ago, the conservative faction headed by Cong Zhenzhong and the radical faction headed by Zhuang Yu were still fighting over a series of issues such as scrambling for end-time resources and formulating new rules. When they gradually obtained information , presenting the dead end of the entire so-called "Second Cambrian Period" in front of everyone, only to find that all these struggles are meaningless except for consuming human combat power and survivability. Walking on a dead end, but still stabbing each other, it's ridiculous.
Fighting is the nature of humans and animals, especially in an era of scarce resources. Only by fighting can we get more and better. But at least for now, they are grasshoppers tied to the same rope and have a common goal. enemies and targets.
Cong Zhenzhong said: "Get on the plane."
Anxious meowing came from a distance. Abu, who was supposed to be sleeping at this point, somehow sensed that they were about to leave, and was running towards them quickly. His huge body shook the ground.
Abu rushed in front of them, circled the helicopter twice anxiously, and found that the helicopter couldn't fit it, and immediately realized that he wouldn't bring it this time, and it became even more anxious, screaming desperately, and blocked the hatch with his body.
Zhuang Yao frowned and said, "You didn't tell it?"
Deng Xiao pouted, feeling very uncomfortable: "Why don't you tell yourself."
Abu lowered his head, let out a lonely cry, and slapped the helicopter with his tail.
Cong Xia touched Abu's soft fur: "Abu, we will be back soon this time too."
Abu sensed something sensitively, and the cry was very disturbing, maybe even it could hear the uncertainty in Cong Xia's tone.
Zhuang Yao rubbed Abu's nose: "Abu, listen to Xiao Wang these few days, don't run around, eat on time, and when we come back, we can often take you out to play."
A Bu let out a "meow" and licked Zhuang Yao's clothes lightly.
Cong Xia hugged it and kissed it hard, then turned and boarded the plane.
Cheng Tianbi was about to board the plane when someone called him from behind.At some point, Cao Zhixian came with someone.
Cheng Tianbi turned around and gave a military salute: "Commander."
Cao Zhixian came over, and he looked at Cheng Tianbi with tired and helpless eyes.
Cong Zhenzhong winked, and everyone boarded the plane one after another. Cao Zhixian sighed: "Once a person gets old, his heart tends to soften. Tianbi, I am only a son like you. Every time I think of you, I feel proud and worried. If I could choose, I would rather you be an ordinary mutant, as long as you can protect yourself." At this time, Cao Zhixian was not the iron-blooded and resolute supreme commander, but just an old man with gray temples who missed his son.
All day long, Bi's Adam's apple twitched and he didn't speak.
"You don't know what it's like to sit in the combat headquarters and watch your son be in danger several times through the monitor. How many times in my heart I want to order you to retreat, but I can't. Sitting in that seat, I can't Treating you as my son, I can only treat you as a soldier..."
Cheng Tianbi's lips trembled slightly, he didn't know why Cao Zhixian said this today.
Cao Zhixian took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, he took out one, and put it into his mouth tremblingly: "Quit soon... I used to have two packs a day, but now cigarettes are a luxury. I haven't finished this pack of cigarettes in two months."
Cheng Tianbi seemed a little unable to bear this atmosphere: "Commander..."
Cao Zhixian took a puff of cigarette and looked at Cheng Tianbi sadly: "Tianbi, I'm sorry for you and your mother. You haven't called me daddy for more than 20 years. If you leave today, you may really never come back. I hold the greatest military power in my hand, but I can't stop my son from dying. I feel like a failure. Can you call me? Just take it as a comfort."
Cheng Tianbi clenched his fists, his expression was stiff, and the muscles on his face twitched from forbearance.
Cao Zhixian waited for a long time, but Tianbi didn't speak. He lowered his head and sighed deeply: "You...take care." After speaking, he turned and walked back.
Although Cong Xia was in the cabin, his enhanced hearing allowed him to hear the conversation between the father and son. He walked over and pushed Cheng Tianbi hard. Cheng Tianbi's body was as straight as a javelin. Seeing Cao Zhixian's obviously aged back, his lips moved, and finally he spit out a single syllable hoarsely.
Cao Zhixian paused and turned around suddenly, his eyes were already red.
Cheng Tianbi gave him a military salute forcefully, and dragged Cong Xia onto the plane.
The moment the cabin door closed, everyone's hearts seemed to be bound by an invisible shackle, so heavy that it hurt even to breathe.They are about to embark on the final journey of mutants, and their fate is in the direction of the helicopter's flight.
After the plane arrived in Xining, they were unloaded with their cargo.
The team escorting the puppet jade began to open the box layer by layer like peeling an onion, and finally took out a box that could be carried with it.Without the dozens of layers of protection, Cong Xia felt that the Cambrian energy could push him back, but unfortunately, no one else could feel it except him.
Zhuang Yao said: "Then we can only fly over it, the plane cannot take off with it."
Cong Xia nodded: "Let's go."
Cong Zhenzhong handed them a gray eagle: "It will send you to the restricted area, where we will observe the situation in the restricted area. Remember, do what you can, and come back with your life saved."
Cong Xia smiled slightly: "Okay."
Cong Zhenzhong shook Cong Xia's neck, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Xia, I must let my second uncle come back alive."
Cong Xia grabbed his hand firmly, and said with a heavy tone: "Definitely!"
The three of them took the puppet jade, got on Gray Eagle, and flew towards the restricted area.
At this time, Qinghai was as cold as the winter when they first came. There was heavy snow in the sky, and they could barely open their eyes against the cold wind.
Zhuang Yao buried his face in his padded jacket and remained motionless. Cong Xia and Cheng Tianbi sat in front of him to shield him from the wind, with a box containing puppet jade in the middle, and they were silent for a while.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Do you have any ideas?"
Cong Xia shook his head: "I don't have any clue. When we arrive in Qinghai, let's fuse the puppet jade together first, it should be in the shape of a ball." He gestured with his finger: "It's as big as a marble."
"How to blend together?"
"Changing the particle shape is like fusing sea dragon tendons."
"Does the five-color stone have any reaction?"
Cong Xia covered her stomach: "I don't know, I'm afraid of accidents, so I dare not try it now, let's talk about it when we get to the restricted area."
Cheng Tianbi pressed his hand on the box and said after a long time: "There is one thing that I have not told you."
Zhuang Yao poked his head out of his padded jacket at some point and looked at Cheng Tianbi.
Cheng Tianbi said: "When I advanced, I had some strange feelings. I believe that other natural force evolutionists also felt it, but except for me and Shen Changze, none of them knew that there was a virtual puppet jade deep in their consciousness, so only We know what it's like to feel more and more intense as you progress."
Cong Xia's breath stagnates: "What's going on?" Zhuang Yao reminded him a long time ago that Cheng Tianbi hid something from them. He didn't care at first, but later because there were too many things, he had already forgotten. Now When Cheng Tianbi brought it up, he immediately became nervous.
Cheng Tianbi looked into Cong Xia's eyes: "We feel that the puppet jade is...calling us. This feeling has existed since I broke through to the third level. I have approached Shen Changze in private, and he has the same feeling."
Cong Xia frowned and said, "Third order? Then why did you say it now?"
Cheng Tianbi lowered his eyes.
Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice, "Are you afraid?"
Cheng Tianbi said: "Speaking out this matter will only make you more uneasy. Moreover, since I knew that I had that thing in my brain, I began to distrust my own energy. How on earth were we selected? How did we get such a thing? The ability against the sky? Could all this be arranged by the ancient gods? There are a lot of questions in my mind, which makes me doubt myself and my ability. The call from the puppet jade makes me... Yeah, it scares me a little."
Cong Xia let out a breath, with a flustered expression: "What kind of call?"
"It's indescribable. At the moment of advancement, I could clearly feel the puppet jade. My energy seemed to resonate with the energy between heaven and earth. I began to think it was my own illusion. After talking with Shen Changze, That's for sure not."
Zhuang Yao said: "Then why did you say it now?"
Cheng Tianbi said in a deep voice, "Because of Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai."
"Because they were almost eaten back by the black hole?"
Cheng Tianbi nodded: "The battle in the South China Sea was the first time that Dai Kuilin and I used wood energy together. It was an unspeakable excitement. It seemed that all the power in the world was under our control, just like taking drugs. It makes people crazy and addictive. You remember that when Yao Qianjiang and Wu You, Zhou Fenglan and Myron experimented with that energy, they all lost control, but in the end they managed it. At that time, they only had the first or second order. We At that time, the remaining energy was only a quarter of what it was in its heyday, and there was such a terrifying sense of fullness, what would happen if it was full of energy?"
"You mean, all of you may have a backlash like that of Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai?"
"After breaking through to the fourth level, the energy becomes more and more difficult to control. This force is too great for a single person to control. Sometimes I feel flustered when I hold this force. I feel that this force does not belong to me. I just use my body to express it, and the evolution of man by natural force is just a container for the five elements."
Cong Xia's heart suddenly tightened, and an unknown fear came to his heart. He looked at Cheng Tianbi, his lips trembling.
Cheng Tianbi gritted his teeth and said: "The experience of Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai made me more and more suspicious, especially after the emergence of derived abilities, natural force evolutionists have more and more control over natural forces, such as wind, water, fire, light, thunder, and earth. Wait, this is just...just..."
"It is simply that the five elements that make up this world are gradually being mastered by natural force evolutionists. If one day you can really evolve to the seventh level, it may not be manipulating natural forces. You yourself will become natural forces."
Cheng Tianbi sighed: "Yes, that's what I think."
Cong Xia finally knew why Cheng Tianbi had been hiding it all the time. There were too many things that a human heart could bear. No matter how strong Cheng Tianbi's will was, he was always an individual. How he would speak to those close to him when he had doubts and doubts, especially when they were already wracked with all sorts of troubles.
Zhuang Yao smiled lightly: "I have guessed what you said a long time ago."
A trace of surprise flashed in Cheng Tianbi's eyes.
"I have already guessed that the ancient gods created you group of heaven-defying monsters. There must be some intentions. Your statement proves this point. You see, all the time, everyone has the risk of exploding when advancing. Only Cong Xia is not with you, Cong Xia is a special case, not to mention, what about you, you are like cheating all the way, not only your ability is too strong, your advancement speed is faster than others, and your life is not in danger. If you continue like this, you will break through sooner or later Seventh level, if one day, ten of you together can point to where to hit, turn the whole planet into a back garden, build the sea if you want, wind if you want to blow, earthquake if you want earthquake, at that time, What will you become?"
Cheng Tianbi was silent.
"You will become gods, gods of creation, but only one god of creation is enough. There are ten of you, and two tigers cannot fit in one mountain, let alone ten. The earth will not become your back garden, but will become your own. become your battlefield, and one day, the earth will become a real purgatory."
Cong Xia knocked her head desperately: "I'm confused, Zhuang Yao...I'm really confused."
Zhuang Yao smiled: "What did I say before I came? You must take me with you. I think the ancient gods have faced such a situation before."
"You mean, the ancient gods once broke through to the seventh level and obtained the energy to completely control a certain element?"
"No, how could the Cambrian energy allow them to advance to that level without destroying them? Think about it, if there is no constraint from the troops, and no overall planning of one task after another, can ten of them fight side by side? As early as When they met, Cheng Tianbi and Zhou Fenglan were incompatible. If there were no external constraints, the natural force evolutionists would have been assigned to stand against each other. However, this restrictive force did not exist in ancient times, at least it did not exist at first. Those human beings who have obtained divine power are dissatisfied with each other, so there are so many life-and-death battles between gods and gods in history, disturbing the peace of the earth. Later, the restricting power finally appeared, that is, the Cambrian consciousness, when the ancient gods When the people realized that their biggest enemy was not each other, but the soul of the earth, they stopped fighting and wanted to save the human fire. So there was everything behind. I think they need to use natural forces to evolve humans to fight against mutant creatures, to protect ordinary humans, and at the same time, to prevent them from repeating the same mistakes and fighting with each other, so the five energy is divided into ten, to weaken each other, and at the same time, when necessary, they can also obtain powerful combat power through energy fusion. But Unlike other mutants, this power is obtained by changing genes and bodies. According to Cheng Tianbi and our guess, it was given to them by the ancient gods through puppet jade, so this power will evolve with the deepening of evolution. It will become more and more difficult to control. Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai just touched the bottom line of this force. If Rong Lan hadn't pulled them back at that time, they would definitely be swallowed up by the black hole, and the black hole that lost control would make What happened, no one knows."
"Then...they will break through to the seventh step?"
Zhuang Yao shook his head: "No, if we can stop the puppet jade, they and we will be safe for the time being. If not, with their bodies that only have half the energy of the ancient gods, it is impossible to break through to the seventh level, at most later than us Die for a while."
Cheng Tianbi said: "I don't want to break through to the seventh level, I want everything to end here."
Zhuang Yao sighed, "Who wouldn't want that."
Cong Xia looked at Cheng Tianbi with complicated emotions in his eyes.
Before sunset, they came to the restricted area again.The long yellow sand has been covered with snow, and from the sky, the army green tents they left here are faintly visible.
Cong Xia took a bite of the hard compressed grain, thinking about the boring but stable half a year spent here, for some reason, he felt a little nostalgic.People are like this, the more they have nothing, the more they want something.
Passing past the original station, they went straight to the ruins of the cave. Most of the marking lines had been covered by snow, and they searched for a long time before they determined the location.
Gray Eagle flew all afternoon, apparently tired, shook his head and lay down in the snow, folded his wings, intending to rest.
Cong Xia patted it on the head: "Thank you for your hard work, let's go."
Gray Eagle looked at him with his neck on one side.
Zhuang Yao said: "How can we go back when it's gone?"
"If we can't go back, there is no need to drag it down. If we can survive, Tianbi will take us back."
Zhuang Yao shrugged: "Yes."
Cong Xia patted it again: "Good boy, let's go."
Gray Eagle stood up, jumped back in the snow, turned back three steps, and finally saw that they really let them go, so they spread their wings and flew away.
Cheng Tianbi swept away the snow under his feet, and put the box on the ground: "I opened it."
"Open it."
Cheng Tianbi opened the box layer by layer according to the decryption method Cong Zhenzhong told him, and each layer of radiation-proof material was peeled off. Cong Xia felt that the energy was stronger. In the end, Cong Xia was pale, had difficulty breathing, and felt stomach Even Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao felt uncomfortable.
What they are facing now is the energy that can trigger a magnitude [-] earthquake and drag countless creatures into the abyss.
Cong Xia felt that the five-color stone was getting hotter and hotter, and he was a little at a loss.The five-color stone reacted the first time he "saw" the puppet jade, and the first time he was in danger because of absorbing too much energy from the puppet jade, the five-color stone even bounced him away. When he came into contact with the puppet jade, he still had to try to put the puppet jade back into its original shape. He really didn't know what would happen to the puppet jade or the five-color stone.
When Cheng Tianbi opened the last layer of protection, Cong Xia felt a majestic energy explosion hit, just like a vast tsunami coming head-on, the powerlessness and fear of facing a behemoth, compared to facing a king It's even worse when it's a squid or a sea dragon. The most frightening thing is that this energy is invisible, invisible and intangible, but you can really feel it. It's like facing an invisible killer, who may be decapitated at any time.Cong Xia took a deep breath, allowing the energy to fill her whole body, and then restrained the trembling of her legs.
Zhuang Yao grabbed his arm: "Don't be intimidated."
Cong Xia was taken aback, he didn't know when it started, Zhuang Yao not only grew taller, but also his hands became stronger, he was no longer the little boy who needed him to pick him up and run away whenever he was in danger.He couldn't help but glance at Zhuang Yao, the child they watched growing up was the proof of their hard work in the past four years.He settled down and felt that his body had gained strength. It has been this day. He has walked in front of the Palace of the King of Hell for countless times. He must not be weak at the last moment.
Cong Xia squatted down and looked at the pile of evil jade fragments. What was in front of their eyes was the source of everything.
Cong Xia tremblingly picked up one: "This one is the biggest, and it was pulled out from the brain of the king squid." He laughed at himself: "I was crawling around in a pile of rotten meat, and the nose, mouth It was full of flesh and blood, hot and sticky, and I couldn't even breathe. I don't know which experience of holding puppet jade was the most disgusting. It was in the body fluids of insects, in the mouth of Qinghailong, and dozens of underground puppet jades. Mi Shenshen is the last time, for this thing, I really..." Because he is the only person who can feel the puppet jade, so every time someone else makes a condition, he goes to get it, but unfortunately every time the puppet jade is released It's almost not a place for people to go. Looking back, he doesn't know where he got his courage.
Cheng Tianbi squeezed his shoulder, giving him silent encouragement.
Cong Xia picked up all the puppet jades and put them in her palm, and took a deep breath.He had to piece together the puppet jade, because the only soft metal that can block the energy of the puppet jade in a large area is too small, and it cannot be wrapped in a ball. If there is no better way to seal the puppet jade, then the only energy that can block it as much as possible is the only one. way.
Zhuang Yao took a step back, obviously nervous.
Cong Xia was more nervous than them, and the five-color stone continued to heat up, as if he was at odds with the puppet jade.He gritted his teeth, released the energy from his palm, and reached towards the puppet jade.Usually he absorbs energy from the puppet jade, this is the first time he does the opposite.Since he can change the shape of objects, puppet jade should be no exception.
The moment his energy touched the puppet jade, he closed his eyes, fearing that he would be resisted by the puppet jade, or bounced away by the five-color stone, but nothing happened, and his energy entered it so smoothly. The puppet jade, the familiar energy arrangement, really has many similarities with the energy-storing jade talisman made by him. They guessed it right, the puppet jade is a huge energy-storing jade talisman, but compared to the energy-storing jade talisman Jade Talisman, it has more terrifying functions.
The puppet jade slowly gathered together, slowly pieced together according to the cracks between each other.Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao looked surprised.
Cong Xia whispered: "So smooth?" He felt guilty.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Maybe it's because the puppet jade contains Cambrian energy, and your body also has Cambrian energy, so there is no difference."
"But I have 'safe' Cambrian energy in me."
"I have thought about this. The so-called safety and insecurity are actually just following the evolution method of the five-color stone, so that you can successfully suppress the erosion of your genes by the Cambrian energy. The Cambrian energy directly acts on the genes, and the same Energy can allow Zhang San to evolve eyesight, Li Si to evolve muscles, and Wang Wu to evolve nothing. In the final analysis, Cambrian energy happens to meet a certain ancient gene of a certain organism, which can be catalyzed, so evolution If it happens, nothing will happen if it does not touch the ancient genes. Therefore, I think that the so-called 'safe' Cambrian energy is actually screened according to each person's energy attributes and ancient gene types through the five-color stone cultivation method , can not stimulate a certain gene mutation, so as to ensure the safety of mutants as much as possible. In other words, the safe Cambrian energy in Zhang San's body may be destroyed in Li Si's body, and the Screening, they each accumulate more and more Cambrian energy that is safe for themselves, while you have a special physique, a panacea, and the energy is safe in anyone's body. In short, whether it is 'safe' or 'destroyed' ', are all Cambrian energies, they are only different when acting on individuals, and there is no difference in puppet jade."
"Isn't that Heavenly Master so powerful that he can even discover a safe way of evolution."
"He just discovered a way to delay our death, not once and for all. Zhang Tianshi has studied the ancient gods and puppet jade quite thoroughly. He must be a more powerful brain evolution than Jiang Ying."
Cong Xia didn't dare to scatter any more energy, and glued the pieces together one by one, leaving aside the energy
After the transport plane arrived at Apocalypse, they were welcomed by the people on their way back to the Academy of Sciences. Their achievements have spread all over the country, and even the whole world. The news of their victory over the giant ocean beasts is a great surprise to these ordinary people who are always in fear. That said, it is undoubtedly a great encouragement.Moreover, the energy spent by the Academy of Sciences and the military on preparing for the South China Sea can finally be transferred to human reconstruction. The victory in the South China Sea is the beginning of a new life for ordinary people.
After returning to the dormitory of the Academy of Sciences, Cong Xia had a good night's sleep. The next day, he was woken up by a knock on the door, and Mu Fei's brisk voice sounded outside the door: "Cong Xia, I made your favorite steamed buns. Get up and eat."
As soon as Cong Xia heard about the steamed buns, she got up and went too late to ensure that there would be no one left.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Deng Xiao held three steamed buns in each of his left and right hands, and was eating hazelnuts. Deng Jieyun looked at her son with a look of resentment.
Deng Xiao took a sip of water: "You guys are late, hiccup... such delicious buns, I didn't get up early."
Cong Xia scolded with a smile: "Mu Fei left it for us, everyone is as heartless as you."
Mu Fei brought out some steamed buns and said with a smile, "Come on, this one belongs to you, this one is loose."
Opening the steamer, a white mist rushed out, and the white mist cleared. The ones placed in front of Cong Xia were normal steamed buns, while the ones placed in front of Devil Song were twelve fat, white buns in the shape of rabbits.
"Wow, it's really fun." Deng Xiao excitedly reached out and wanted to take it.
Devil Pine's eyes flashed, a branch grabbed Deng Xiao's arm, and he said coldly, "No, sure, touch."
Mu Fei smiled embarrassedly: "This, it specifically wants."
Deng Xiao withdrew his hand aggrievedly.
Devil Song picked up a little white rabbit with chopsticks, put it to his mouth and blew gently.
Mu Fei smiled and said, "This time it's a little rabbit, what do you want next time?"
Devil Song thought for a while: "Anyway, I don't want an octopus."
Mu Fei rubbed his head: "Eat."
Cong Xia thought to himself, these two people obviously look exactly the same, but the way they get along is becoming more and more like father and son.
Deng Xiao said excitedly: "I've already thought about what I'm going to eat these days, milk tea, cakes, dumplings, coconut chicken soup..."
Cong Xia teased him: "Let's eat fish, we have a pile of frozen fish that we can't finish eating."
Deng Xiao waved his hands again and again: "No, no, I feel sick just looking at the fish."
Liu Fengyu grinned: "It is estimated that no one will want to eat fish in a short time."
Tang Yanqiu said with a smile: "Except for Abu."
Cong Xia said: "Abu is very happy this time." He suddenly remembered something, and asked Deng Jieyun: "Sister Deng, do you plan to stay longer this time?"
Deng Jieyun shook her head: "I'm going back tomorrow, there's nothing suitable for praying mantises to eat here."
Deng Xiaohu stopped his hand and said with a sad face: "Mom, you just stayed for a few days and then went back."
Deng Jieyun rubbed his short stubble hair: "If you miss me, go and see me. It's not too far to go back and forth."
"Mom, what do you want to eat, what do you want, I will prepare it for you, I live well here, it will be even better if you are here..."
Deng Jieyun shrugged: "No way, I have won their loyalty and service, and I have to assume the responsibility of leading and protecting them." She smiled, "Son, go and prepare some beautiful clothes for me."
"no problem."
Cheng Tianbi said solemnly: "Sister Deng, thank you for your help."
Deng Jieyun smiled triumphantly: "When I appeared on stage, were you so moved that you were about to cry?"
Cong Xia smiled and said: "Not only that, I almost wanted to kneel down to the goddess, you saved all of us at a critical moment."
Deng Jieyun smiled and bent her beautiful eyes: "I am here this time, and there is one more thing that I need your help with."
"You said."
"I heard about the reconstruction plan of the Academy of Sciences. In remote areas like Yunnan, people will migrate to the Central Plains, right?"
"That's it."
"Exactly, you don't care about this place in Yunnan in the future, leave it to me, I can guarantee that my people will not step out of that land, such a big province is enough for us to hunt and reproduce, and we will live in peace with human beings forever thing."
Cong Xia nodded and said: "Okay, I believe the Academy of Sciences is willing to do this favor."
Deng Jieyun nodded: "Before I leave, let them give me an answer."
The next day, they sent Deng Jieyun away together, and the Academy of Sciences agreed to her request without accident, and prepared many gifts for her, such as clothes, skin care products, food, weapons, energy, etc., to express their gratitude. Things are far from enough to repay her friendship at a critical moment.
Deng Jieyun left with the praying mantis army. When the emerald green cloud flew over Beijing, everyone looked up and watched this powerful race cross the blue sky and disappear into the distance.
Cong Xia patted Deng Xiao on the back: "We will accompany you to see her next time."
Deng Xiao blinked his red eye circles: "Okay."
Back at the Academy of Sciences, Cong Zhenzhong called them into the meeting room: "How did you rest these two days?"
Cong Xia said: "It's okay, it's time to slow down, what about the others? Are you awake?"
"All awake."
Cong Xia sighed, "It's a miracle that 13 people went and 13 people returned."
"It is indeed a miracle." Cong Zhenzhong said, "The puppet jade from Russia and the United States has arrived in the laboratory. So far, we have collected all the fragments."
"Then, next..."
"Next, we will take the puppet jade to Qinghai."
Liu Fengyu smiled wryly, "We are really inseparable from Qinghai."
Cong Xia nodded and said, "If you want to seal it, that's probably the only suitable place."
Zhuang Yao said: "When do you plan to act?"
Cong Zhenzhong sighed: "It's not yet decided, once we act, we will be sentenced to life and death immediately."
Cong Xia was filled with emotion.If they don't go, at least they can live a peaceful and good life for a few years, but once they go, they will get the final result. If the result is not what they want, they will have nowhere to escape but slow down. Waiting for death, such despair, not everyone can bear.
Cheng Tianbi said: "The worst thing is, we should still live for a few more years, and we will have to face it sooner or later, so there is no need to hesitate."
Zhuang Yao said: "I agree, if we fail, we should make early plans to delay our death." He looked at Cong Xia: "Then who will go? This trip will be very dangerous. When the puppet jade is combined, we must It will generate huge energy. Cong Xia must go, and I will go too."
Cheng Tianbi said: "I will definitely go."
Deng Xiao said, "I'll go too."
Tang Yanqiu said: "Let's go together, we have already walked so far side by side, there is no reason to separate now."
Liu Fengyu nodded and said, "Yes, we..."
"Everyone..." Cong Xia took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Let me and Tianbi go alone this time. If we succeed, we will come back and reunite with everyone. If we fail, at least you can live longer For a few years, this is not a problem that can be solved by a large number of people, and I absolutely cannot watch you die in vain, so no matter what you say, just the two of us will go, and there will be no one else."
Zhuang Yao crossed his arms and said, "You are right, too many people are useless, but you will definitely need an excellent brain, so I must go."
Cong Xia said: "Zhuang Yao..."
"Don't talk about it. When you arrive in Qinghai, many things need temporary thinking, analysis and judgment. With your mediocre brains, can you deal with emergencies? You have to bring a brain evolution person, don't you want it to be Professor Cong? go?"
Cong Zhenzhong said: "I can..."
Zhuang Yao waved his hand: "You are the pillar of the Academy of Sciences and the core of the entire human reconstruction plan. You must not have any accidents, so I will go, so it is settled."
Cong Zhenzhong sighed: "Dr. Xiaozhuang is right, just the three of you go."
Deng Xiao frowned and said, "Brother Cong..."
Cong Xia smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have high hopes for the five-color stone, and I believe we will come back."
Walking out of the conference room, Cong Xia looked at Cheng Tianbi: "I originally hoped that you would not go, but..."
Cheng Tianbi said firmly: "I will definitely go."
"I know, so you see, I didn't stop you."
Liu Fengyu patted him on the back: "Even if you don't let us go to the restricted area, at least let us go to Qinghai together."
Deng Xiao nodded vigorously: "The six of us are always together, and we must be together wherever we go."
Zhuang Yao kicked him: "You idiot, don't talk like you want to die together."
Deng Xiao grabbed his neck and shook his fist in his face: "Stinky boy, you have grown up now, and you don't have the right to amnesty for children. Be careful, I will beat you up."
Cong Xia watched the two bickering with a smile, feeling warm in her heart.He silently prayed that this scene in front of him would be seen many, many times in his later life, until they grew old together.
Before leaving, they relaxed to their heart's content.
They took Mu Fei and Devil Pine to play around, took Abu, Nini, and Abu’s friends to take a bath and do facials, they invited many people to camp and have picnics, celebrated the victory of the South China Sea War, and drank until they got drunk every day , singing and laughing unscrupulously, living a life of drunkenness and dreams.
During this time, they had no heavy physical training, no [-]-hour daily practice, no "next task" hanging around their necks, no puppet jade wandering outside that made them anxious, no crisis, no worry, Nothing at all.They eat and drink to their heart's content, cherish every minute and every second with their friends, laugh wantonly, and enjoy the best treatment they deserve in the apocalyptic era.
Every picture during these days is worthy of their collection in the bottom of their hearts.
At the end of the month, when the last puppet jade fragment arrived in Beijing, Cong Xia knew that the time had come.
With their simple luggage, they came to the helipad in the backyard, where the team responsible for transporting the puppet jade had already been waiting there.
Cong Xia looked at the big box on the trailer: "So big?"
Cong Zhenzhong said: "It's just that big."
Despite going through 27 energy shielding devices, Cong Xia can still feel the huge Cambrian energy emanating from it. The iron box is protected layer by layer, which is the most terrifying energy body on the planet. It contains enough energy to change the world. No, it has changed the world, and it will make the world worse.
For some reason, Zhuang Yu was also there. He knocked on the box with his fingers and smiled at Zhuang Yao: "I really didn't expect things to come to this point."
Zhuang Yao snorted coldly: "Do you think the previous fights are meaningless?"
Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "It's meaningful to survive."
Cong Xia was a little emotional.When they first arrived in Beijing more than two years ago, the conservative faction headed by Cong Zhenzhong and the radical faction headed by Zhuang Yu were still fighting over a series of issues such as scrambling for end-time resources and formulating new rules. When they gradually obtained information , presenting the dead end of the entire so-called "Second Cambrian Period" in front of everyone, only to find that all these struggles are meaningless except for consuming human combat power and survivability. Walking on a dead end, but still stabbing each other, it's ridiculous.
Fighting is the nature of humans and animals, especially in an era of scarce resources. Only by fighting can we get more and better. But at least for now, they are grasshoppers tied to the same rope and have a common goal. enemies and targets.
Cong Zhenzhong said: "Get on the plane."
Anxious meowing came from a distance. Abu, who was supposed to be sleeping at this point, somehow sensed that they were about to leave, and was running towards them quickly. His huge body shook the ground.
Abu rushed in front of them, circled the helicopter twice anxiously, and found that the helicopter couldn't fit it, and immediately realized that he wouldn't bring it this time, and it became even more anxious, screaming desperately, and blocked the hatch with his body.
Zhuang Yao frowned and said, "You didn't tell it?"
Deng Xiao pouted, feeling very uncomfortable: "Why don't you tell yourself."
Abu lowered his head, let out a lonely cry, and slapped the helicopter with his tail.
Cong Xia touched Abu's soft fur: "Abu, we will be back soon this time too."
Abu sensed something sensitively, and the cry was very disturbing, maybe even it could hear the uncertainty in Cong Xia's tone.
Zhuang Yao rubbed Abu's nose: "Abu, listen to Xiao Wang these few days, don't run around, eat on time, and when we come back, we can often take you out to play."
A Bu let out a "meow" and licked Zhuang Yao's clothes lightly.
Cong Xia hugged it and kissed it hard, then turned and boarded the plane.
Cheng Tianbi was about to board the plane when someone called him from behind.At some point, Cao Zhixian came with someone.
Cheng Tianbi turned around and gave a military salute: "Commander."
Cao Zhixian came over, and he looked at Cheng Tianbi with tired and helpless eyes.
Cong Zhenzhong winked, and everyone boarded the plane one after another. Cao Zhixian sighed: "Once a person gets old, his heart tends to soften. Tianbi, I am only a son like you. Every time I think of you, I feel proud and worried. If I could choose, I would rather you be an ordinary mutant, as long as you can protect yourself." At this time, Cao Zhixian was not the iron-blooded and resolute supreme commander, but just an old man with gray temples who missed his son.
All day long, Bi's Adam's apple twitched and he didn't speak.
"You don't know what it's like to sit in the combat headquarters and watch your son be in danger several times through the monitor. How many times in my heart I want to order you to retreat, but I can't. Sitting in that seat, I can't Treating you as my son, I can only treat you as a soldier..."
Cheng Tianbi's lips trembled slightly, he didn't know why Cao Zhixian said this today.
Cao Zhixian took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, he took out one, and put it into his mouth tremblingly: "Quit soon... I used to have two packs a day, but now cigarettes are a luxury. I haven't finished this pack of cigarettes in two months."
Cheng Tianbi seemed a little unable to bear this atmosphere: "Commander..."
Cao Zhixian took a puff of cigarette and looked at Cheng Tianbi sadly: "Tianbi, I'm sorry for you and your mother. You haven't called me daddy for more than 20 years. If you leave today, you may really never come back. I hold the greatest military power in my hand, but I can't stop my son from dying. I feel like a failure. Can you call me? Just take it as a comfort."
Cheng Tianbi clenched his fists, his expression was stiff, and the muscles on his face twitched from forbearance.
Cao Zhixian waited for a long time, but Tianbi didn't speak. He lowered his head and sighed deeply: "You...take care." After speaking, he turned and walked back.
Although Cong Xia was in the cabin, his enhanced hearing allowed him to hear the conversation between the father and son. He walked over and pushed Cheng Tianbi hard. Cheng Tianbi's body was as straight as a javelin. Seeing Cao Zhixian's obviously aged back, his lips moved, and finally he spit out a single syllable hoarsely.
Cao Zhixian paused and turned around suddenly, his eyes were already red.
Cheng Tianbi gave him a military salute forcefully, and dragged Cong Xia onto the plane.
The moment the cabin door closed, everyone's hearts seemed to be bound by an invisible shackle, so heavy that it hurt even to breathe.They are about to embark on the final journey of mutants, and their fate is in the direction of the helicopter's flight.
After the plane arrived in Xining, they were unloaded with their cargo.
The team escorting the puppet jade began to open the box layer by layer like peeling an onion, and finally took out a box that could be carried with it.Without the dozens of layers of protection, Cong Xia felt that the Cambrian energy could push him back, but unfortunately, no one else could feel it except him.
Zhuang Yao said: "Then we can only fly over it, the plane cannot take off with it."
Cong Xia nodded: "Let's go."
Cong Zhenzhong handed them a gray eagle: "It will send you to the restricted area, where we will observe the situation in the restricted area. Remember, do what you can, and come back with your life saved."
Cong Xia smiled slightly: "Okay."
Cong Zhenzhong shook Cong Xia's neck, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Xia, I must let my second uncle come back alive."
Cong Xia grabbed his hand firmly, and said with a heavy tone: "Definitely!"
The three of them took the puppet jade, got on Gray Eagle, and flew towards the restricted area.
At this time, Qinghai was as cold as the winter when they first came. There was heavy snow in the sky, and they could barely open their eyes against the cold wind.
Zhuang Yao buried his face in his padded jacket and remained motionless. Cong Xia and Cheng Tianbi sat in front of him to shield him from the wind, with a box containing puppet jade in the middle, and they were silent for a while.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Do you have any ideas?"
Cong Xia shook his head: "I don't have any clue. When we arrive in Qinghai, let's fuse the puppet jade together first, it should be in the shape of a ball." He gestured with his finger: "It's as big as a marble."
"How to blend together?"
"Changing the particle shape is like fusing sea dragon tendons."
"Does the five-color stone have any reaction?"
Cong Xia covered her stomach: "I don't know, I'm afraid of accidents, so I dare not try it now, let's talk about it when we get to the restricted area."
Cheng Tianbi pressed his hand on the box and said after a long time: "There is one thing that I have not told you."
Zhuang Yao poked his head out of his padded jacket at some point and looked at Cheng Tianbi.
Cheng Tianbi said: "When I advanced, I had some strange feelings. I believe that other natural force evolutionists also felt it, but except for me and Shen Changze, none of them knew that there was a virtual puppet jade deep in their consciousness, so only We know what it's like to feel more and more intense as you progress."
Cong Xia's breath stagnates: "What's going on?" Zhuang Yao reminded him a long time ago that Cheng Tianbi hid something from them. He didn't care at first, but later because there were too many things, he had already forgotten. Now When Cheng Tianbi brought it up, he immediately became nervous.
Cheng Tianbi looked into Cong Xia's eyes: "We feel that the puppet jade is...calling us. This feeling has existed since I broke through to the third level. I have approached Shen Changze in private, and he has the same feeling."
Cong Xia frowned and said, "Third order? Then why did you say it now?"
Cheng Tianbi lowered his eyes.
Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice, "Are you afraid?"
Cheng Tianbi said: "Speaking out this matter will only make you more uneasy. Moreover, since I knew that I had that thing in my brain, I began to distrust my own energy. How on earth were we selected? How did we get such a thing? The ability against the sky? Could all this be arranged by the ancient gods? There are a lot of questions in my mind, which makes me doubt myself and my ability. The call from the puppet jade makes me... Yeah, it scares me a little."
Cong Xia let out a breath, with a flustered expression: "What kind of call?"
"It's indescribable. At the moment of advancement, I could clearly feel the puppet jade. My energy seemed to resonate with the energy between heaven and earth. I began to think it was my own illusion. After talking with Shen Changze, That's for sure not."
Zhuang Yao said: "Then why did you say it now?"
Cheng Tianbi said in a deep voice, "Because of Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai."
"Because they were almost eaten back by the black hole?"
Cheng Tianbi nodded: "The battle in the South China Sea was the first time that Dai Kuilin and I used wood energy together. It was an unspeakable excitement. It seemed that all the power in the world was under our control, just like taking drugs. It makes people crazy and addictive. You remember that when Yao Qianjiang and Wu You, Zhou Fenglan and Myron experimented with that energy, they all lost control, but in the end they managed it. At that time, they only had the first or second order. We At that time, the remaining energy was only a quarter of what it was in its heyday, and there was such a terrifying sense of fullness, what would happen if it was full of energy?"
"You mean, all of you may have a backlash like that of Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai?"
"After breaking through to the fourth level, the energy becomes more and more difficult to control. This force is too great for a single person to control. Sometimes I feel flustered when I hold this force. I feel that this force does not belong to me. I just use my body to express it, and the evolution of man by natural force is just a container for the five elements."
Cong Xia's heart suddenly tightened, and an unknown fear came to his heart. He looked at Cheng Tianbi, his lips trembling.
Cheng Tianbi gritted his teeth and said: "The experience of Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai made me more and more suspicious, especially after the emergence of derived abilities, natural force evolutionists have more and more control over natural forces, such as wind, water, fire, light, thunder, and earth. Wait, this is just...just..."
"It is simply that the five elements that make up this world are gradually being mastered by natural force evolutionists. If one day you can really evolve to the seventh level, it may not be manipulating natural forces. You yourself will become natural forces."
Cheng Tianbi sighed: "Yes, that's what I think."
Cong Xia finally knew why Cheng Tianbi had been hiding it all the time. There were too many things that a human heart could bear. No matter how strong Cheng Tianbi's will was, he was always an individual. How he would speak to those close to him when he had doubts and doubts, especially when they were already wracked with all sorts of troubles.
Zhuang Yao smiled lightly: "I have guessed what you said a long time ago."
A trace of surprise flashed in Cheng Tianbi's eyes.
"I have already guessed that the ancient gods created you group of heaven-defying monsters. There must be some intentions. Your statement proves this point. You see, all the time, everyone has the risk of exploding when advancing. Only Cong Xia is not with you, Cong Xia is a special case, not to mention, what about you, you are like cheating all the way, not only your ability is too strong, your advancement speed is faster than others, and your life is not in danger. If you continue like this, you will break through sooner or later Seventh level, if one day, ten of you together can point to where to hit, turn the whole planet into a back garden, build the sea if you want, wind if you want to blow, earthquake if you want earthquake, at that time, What will you become?"
Cheng Tianbi was silent.
"You will become gods, gods of creation, but only one god of creation is enough. There are ten of you, and two tigers cannot fit in one mountain, let alone ten. The earth will not become your back garden, but will become your own. become your battlefield, and one day, the earth will become a real purgatory."
Cong Xia knocked her head desperately: "I'm confused, Zhuang Yao...I'm really confused."
Zhuang Yao smiled: "What did I say before I came? You must take me with you. I think the ancient gods have faced such a situation before."
"You mean, the ancient gods once broke through to the seventh level and obtained the energy to completely control a certain element?"
"No, how could the Cambrian energy allow them to advance to that level without destroying them? Think about it, if there is no constraint from the troops, and no overall planning of one task after another, can ten of them fight side by side? As early as When they met, Cheng Tianbi and Zhou Fenglan were incompatible. If there were no external constraints, the natural force evolutionists would have been assigned to stand against each other. However, this restrictive force did not exist in ancient times, at least it did not exist at first. Those human beings who have obtained divine power are dissatisfied with each other, so there are so many life-and-death battles between gods and gods in history, disturbing the peace of the earth. Later, the restricting power finally appeared, that is, the Cambrian consciousness, when the ancient gods When the people realized that their biggest enemy was not each other, but the soul of the earth, they stopped fighting and wanted to save the human fire. So there was everything behind. I think they need to use natural forces to evolve humans to fight against mutant creatures, to protect ordinary humans, and at the same time, to prevent them from repeating the same mistakes and fighting with each other, so the five energy is divided into ten, to weaken each other, and at the same time, when necessary, they can also obtain powerful combat power through energy fusion. But Unlike other mutants, this power is obtained by changing genes and bodies. According to Cheng Tianbi and our guess, it was given to them by the ancient gods through puppet jade, so this power will evolve with the deepening of evolution. It will become more and more difficult to control. Chu Xingzhou and Li Daoai just touched the bottom line of this force. If Rong Lan hadn't pulled them back at that time, they would definitely be swallowed up by the black hole, and the black hole that lost control would make What happened, no one knows."
"Then...they will break through to the seventh step?"
Zhuang Yao shook his head: "No, if we can stop the puppet jade, they and we will be safe for the time being. If not, with their bodies that only have half the energy of the ancient gods, it is impossible to break through to the seventh level, at most later than us Die for a while."
Cheng Tianbi said: "I don't want to break through to the seventh level, I want everything to end here."
Zhuang Yao sighed, "Who wouldn't want that."
Cong Xia looked at Cheng Tianbi with complicated emotions in his eyes.
Before sunset, they came to the restricted area again.The long yellow sand has been covered with snow, and from the sky, the army green tents they left here are faintly visible.
Cong Xia took a bite of the hard compressed grain, thinking about the boring but stable half a year spent here, for some reason, he felt a little nostalgic.People are like this, the more they have nothing, the more they want something.
Passing past the original station, they went straight to the ruins of the cave. Most of the marking lines had been covered by snow, and they searched for a long time before they determined the location.
Gray Eagle flew all afternoon, apparently tired, shook his head and lay down in the snow, folded his wings, intending to rest.
Cong Xia patted it on the head: "Thank you for your hard work, let's go."
Gray Eagle looked at him with his neck on one side.
Zhuang Yao said: "How can we go back when it's gone?"
"If we can't go back, there is no need to drag it down. If we can survive, Tianbi will take us back."
Zhuang Yao shrugged: "Yes."
Cong Xia patted it again: "Good boy, let's go."
Gray Eagle stood up, jumped back in the snow, turned back three steps, and finally saw that they really let them go, so they spread their wings and flew away.
Cheng Tianbi swept away the snow under his feet, and put the box on the ground: "I opened it."
"Open it."
Cheng Tianbi opened the box layer by layer according to the decryption method Cong Zhenzhong told him, and each layer of radiation-proof material was peeled off. Cong Xia felt that the energy was stronger. In the end, Cong Xia was pale, had difficulty breathing, and felt stomach Even Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao felt uncomfortable.
What they are facing now is the energy that can trigger a magnitude [-] earthquake and drag countless creatures into the abyss.
Cong Xia felt that the five-color stone was getting hotter and hotter, and he was a little at a loss.The five-color stone reacted the first time he "saw" the puppet jade, and the first time he was in danger because of absorbing too much energy from the puppet jade, the five-color stone even bounced him away. When he came into contact with the puppet jade, he still had to try to put the puppet jade back into its original shape. He really didn't know what would happen to the puppet jade or the five-color stone.
When Cheng Tianbi opened the last layer of protection, Cong Xia felt a majestic energy explosion hit, just like a vast tsunami coming head-on, the powerlessness and fear of facing a behemoth, compared to facing a king It's even worse when it's a squid or a sea dragon. The most frightening thing is that this energy is invisible, invisible and intangible, but you can really feel it. It's like facing an invisible killer, who may be decapitated at any time.Cong Xia took a deep breath, allowing the energy to fill her whole body, and then restrained the trembling of her legs.
Zhuang Yao grabbed his arm: "Don't be intimidated."
Cong Xia was taken aback, he didn't know when it started, Zhuang Yao not only grew taller, but also his hands became stronger, he was no longer the little boy who needed him to pick him up and run away whenever he was in danger.He couldn't help but glance at Zhuang Yao, the child they watched growing up was the proof of their hard work in the past four years.He settled down and felt that his body had gained strength. It has been this day. He has walked in front of the Palace of the King of Hell for countless times. He must not be weak at the last moment.
Cong Xia squatted down and looked at the pile of evil jade fragments. What was in front of their eyes was the source of everything.
Cong Xia tremblingly picked up one: "This one is the biggest, and it was pulled out from the brain of the king squid." He laughed at himself: "I was crawling around in a pile of rotten meat, and the nose, mouth It was full of flesh and blood, hot and sticky, and I couldn't even breathe. I don't know which experience of holding puppet jade was the most disgusting. It was in the body fluids of insects, in the mouth of Qinghailong, and dozens of underground puppet jades. Mi Shenshen is the last time, for this thing, I really..." Because he is the only person who can feel the puppet jade, so every time someone else makes a condition, he goes to get it, but unfortunately every time the puppet jade is released It's almost not a place for people to go. Looking back, he doesn't know where he got his courage.
Cheng Tianbi squeezed his shoulder, giving him silent encouragement.
Cong Xia picked up all the puppet jades and put them in her palm, and took a deep breath.He had to piece together the puppet jade, because the only soft metal that can block the energy of the puppet jade in a large area is too small, and it cannot be wrapped in a ball. If there is no better way to seal the puppet jade, then the only energy that can block it as much as possible is the only one. way.
Zhuang Yao took a step back, obviously nervous.
Cong Xia was more nervous than them, and the five-color stone continued to heat up, as if he was at odds with the puppet jade.He gritted his teeth, released the energy from his palm, and reached towards the puppet jade.Usually he absorbs energy from the puppet jade, this is the first time he does the opposite.Since he can change the shape of objects, puppet jade should be no exception.
The moment his energy touched the puppet jade, he closed his eyes, fearing that he would be resisted by the puppet jade, or bounced away by the five-color stone, but nothing happened, and his energy entered it so smoothly. The puppet jade, the familiar energy arrangement, really has many similarities with the energy-storing jade talisman made by him. They guessed it right, the puppet jade is a huge energy-storing jade talisman, but compared to the energy-storing jade talisman Jade Talisman, it has more terrifying functions.
The puppet jade slowly gathered together, slowly pieced together according to the cracks between each other.Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao looked surprised.
Cong Xia whispered: "So smooth?" He felt guilty.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Maybe it's because the puppet jade contains Cambrian energy, and your body also has Cambrian energy, so there is no difference."
"But I have 'safe' Cambrian energy in me."
"I have thought about this. The so-called safety and insecurity are actually just following the evolution method of the five-color stone, so that you can successfully suppress the erosion of your genes by the Cambrian energy. The Cambrian energy directly acts on the genes, and the same Energy can allow Zhang San to evolve eyesight, Li Si to evolve muscles, and Wang Wu to evolve nothing. In the final analysis, Cambrian energy happens to meet a certain ancient gene of a certain organism, which can be catalyzed, so evolution If it happens, nothing will happen if it does not touch the ancient genes. Therefore, I think that the so-called 'safe' Cambrian energy is actually screened according to each person's energy attributes and ancient gene types through the five-color stone cultivation method , can not stimulate a certain gene mutation, so as to ensure the safety of mutants as much as possible. In other words, the safe Cambrian energy in Zhang San's body may be destroyed in Li Si's body, and the Screening, they each accumulate more and more Cambrian energy that is safe for themselves, while you have a special physique, a panacea, and the energy is safe in anyone's body. In short, whether it is 'safe' or 'destroyed' ', are all Cambrian energies, they are only different when acting on individuals, and there is no difference in puppet jade."
"Isn't that Heavenly Master so powerful that he can even discover a safe way of evolution."
"He just discovered a way to delay our death, not once and for all. Zhang Tianshi has studied the ancient gods and puppet jade quite thoroughly. He must be a more powerful brain evolution than Jiang Ying."
Cong Xia didn't dare to scatter any more energy, and glued the pieces together one by one, leaving aside the energy
