Compared with the shock and wariness on Hamilton's face, Lu Bing's eyebrows relaxed, as if he finally saw something good, and he said:
"It's okay, okay, we don't need to get in..."
While the young man was speaking, a chair made of a large number of entwined roots slowly grew out of the ground and was placed behind Xu Xiaoxiao.
The two fruit entities supporting the woman loosened their grips and then fell to the side regardless.
As soon as the wooden body touched the wall, it was wrapped around and absorbed by countless roots, like a snowman seeing the warm spring sun, melting and disappearing little by little.
"Ashes to ashes, soil to soil, it's quite environmentally friendly, Marshal Zhao..."
Lu Bing's mean voice echoed in the narrow space, drawing Hamilton's eyes back.
When he looked forward, he discovered that there was a human body in front of the place that was originally closed by roots.
Just like the chair that grew out of the ground, the human body that appeared out of thin air was also made of roots, but the level of precision was much higher than that of the chair.
Not long after Lu Bing finished speaking, the body composed of roots suddenly leaned forward and separated from the wall behind him.
Simple facial features were outlined on the rough face, and a deep and deep voice came out from the opening and closing of his mouth:
"Lu Bing, long time no see..."
Hamilton looked at the tree man in front of him and couldn't help but murmur to himself:
"Is this biotechnology based on Youyu, or..."
173, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shouted: "Good guy, no wonder Mercury Port is alive. It's because the main control center has awakened!"
The tree man slowly turned his head, and a gentle smile appeared on his face made of tree roots:
"The way I am now is not caused by the Nuwa clan's biotechnology. To be precise, it's not all caused by..."
"Let me introduce myself first. Except for Lu Bing, this is probably the first time for everyone else to meet me."
"My name is Zhao Sen. I am the marshal of the Kyoto Underground City. I am an eighth-level comprehensively enhanced ability user. Before the disaster broke out..."
Before Marshal Zhao could finish speaking, Hamilton answered with excitement:
"Before the disaster broke out, you were China's... leader!"
As if he was surprised by Hamilton's answer, Treeman Zhao Sen was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Yes, before the disaster broke out, I was the leader of China."
"But I am not qualified as a leader..."
After hearing these words of self-blame, Hamilton lowered his eyes and shook his head slightly:
"It's not your fault."
Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere was a little heavy, Zhao Sen immediately changed his tone to a more relaxed tone after being silent for a short while:
"Okay, the main purpose of today is not to hold a review meeting. I will first solve the alienation problem in Xu Xiaoxiao, and we will discuss it in detail later."
After saying that, Zhao Sen stepped forward, stretched out his arms, and cupped the woman's cheeks one on the left and one on the right.
Hamilton noticed that the tree man's body did not completely leave the wall, and the two were closely connected by a thick root.
The ten fingers that had just been condensed all exploded and turned into roots that were not much thicker than a hair!
These roots were like tiny worms with autonomous consciousness, roving over the woman's cheek, finally finding the target, and pricking it lightly.
But Xu Xiaoxiao just trembled slightly and didn't seem to feel any pain. "Emotions are a very difficult problem, and even the strongest warriors can be affected by them."
Zhao Sen spoke softly, as if sighing for himself or explaining to the confused Hamilton.
However, before Hamilton could understand the meaning of these words, Lu Bing started to make noise again:
"That's too absolute, isn't it, Marshal Zhao? If there were no emotions, all human beings would have died long ago. How could they still be surviving like this?"
Upon hearing this rude interruption, Tree Man Zhao Sen was not angry, but instead chuckled and agreed:
"You're right, Lu Bing. What I said was too absolute. Maybe I should revise it, for example, 'Negative emotions are a very difficult problem.' What do you think?"
If one could ignore Zhao Sen's terrifying appearance and close his eyes and just listen to the voice, one would feel that he was a very elegant old man.
Lu Bing, on the other hand, looked like a naughty kid who had been playing wildly outside for a long time and his voice was split.
And he is also a naughty kid who thinks he is very smart.
"Well~~ That's more like it. I'm not talking about you, Lao Zhao. As a leader, you have to pay attention to your wording carefully, otherwise you will easily make mistakes..."
"??????????????????When you made mistakes before, you lost the face of China. If you make a mistake now, you lose the face of all mankind..."
"Yes, yes, you are right..." Zhao Sen smiled kindly, and the roots between his arms made a slight friction sound, as if he was exerting force.
"I really should be careful about what I say and do!"
As soon as the rich words fell, Zhao Sen's body erupted into silver particles of light!
It was different from the scene when ordinary ability users released their abilities. After these light particles exploded into the air, they did not surround the body surface like usual, but suddenly retracted and adhered to the tree man's body surface.
Using the body as the channel of infusion, powerful spiritual energy flows into the woman's cheeks along the dense roots, injecting unimaginable vitality into the other party!
Not long after the psychic infusion, Xu Xiaoxiao's dilated pupils began to have focus, and the alienated state on the body surface further faded, gradually changing towards normal.
But the horn on his head still hasn't changed. It seems that there is no way to return to normal.
After a while, the silver light particles on the tree man's body gradually dried up, and Xu Xiaoxiao finally woke up.
"Um...what's wrong with me...ah!!"
As she slowly raised her head, the woman's eyes met Zhao Sen's ferocious face.
Although Zhao Sen had tried his best to control the expression on his face to make himself look harmless.
But the face made of countless roots still shocked Xu Xiaoxiao.
So much so that the woman had a stress reaction, and the psychic energy around her body exploded, and she subconsciously planned to give Zhao Senlai a big punch.
Fortunately, Hamilton and Lu Bing intervened in time, thus avoiding the unfortunate incident.
After the treatment, Zhao Sen released his hands and sighed softly:
"Be careful to control your emotions next time and don't let nothingness take advantage of you..."
"Besides... the young man is a formidable person. I was almost killed by you with just one punch..."
Xu Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly and kept bending down to apologize:
"Yes, I'm sorry, Marshal Zhao. I saw your face when I woke up just now. I didn't react before I acted in self-defense..."
Lu Bing spoke quietly from the side and asked maliciously:
"You mean, Marshal Zhao's face is so ugly that it scares you? That's why you subconsciously want to punch him?"
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao's head shook even more:
"No, no, Marshal Zhao is not ugly at all..."
Lu Bing continued: "Then why did you give him a big punch?"
Xu Xiaoxiao was speechless, looking like he was about to cry: "I, wasn't I scared..."
Lu Bing: "Then I still dislike Marshal Zhao for being ugly..."
Xu Xiaoxiao: "..."
"Okay, okay, you can comment on my appearance as you like, I won't mind."
Probably feeling that Xu Xiaoxiao's newly controlled emotions were about to be driven out of control by Lu Bing, Zhao Sen spoke quickly and brought the topic back on track.
"Xu Xiaoxiao, why did you come to see me?"
Xu Xiaoxiao, who finally recovered from the embarrassment, glared at Lu Bing. When Zhao Sen asked him, he immediately gave a military salute and replied concisely:
"Reporting to the marshal, under the orders of the intermediate general Bai Donggu, I am here to request to restart the [Family Changing Plan]!"
As soon as these words came out, the same shock appeared on the faces of Lu Bing and Zhao Sen.
"Why does Bai Donggu suddenly want to restart this plan? I remember that when this plan was first proposed, his opposition was the loudest..."
Zhao Sen's brows knitted together, and every root on it seemed to be making a slight squeaking sound, expressing that their owner was thinking hard.
"This is Marshal Zhao..." Seeing that Zhao Sen didn't understand, Xu Xiaoxiao explained:
"General Bai believed that the original family-changing plan was inappropriate in terms of execution method and execution time, so he refuted it."
"But now, the time has come! Just changing the execution method of the family-changing plan may change the tragic fate of the human race in the future!"
"Alas..." Zhao Sen relaxed his brows and let out a long sigh, "Will it change the tragic fate of the human race? Bai Donggu's perseverance really makes me ashamed..."
Xu Xiaoxiao did not interrupt, quietly waiting for Marshal Zhao to make a decision.
In fact, this was not the first time she saw this leader.
It's just that the time gap between the last time we met and now is quite a long time, eight years.
Moreover, the last time I saw Marshal Zhao, he was still a kind old man, not the tree man weaving his roots like now.
Xu Xiaoxiao didn't know how Zhao Sen could be alienated like this, but she still knew one thing.
Compared with eight years ago, Zhao Sen's strength seems to be much stronger.
And it is still developing in a direction that is getting out of control.
A few minutes later, Zhao Sen heard a small friction sound from his body. He looked at the woman in front of him and said solemnly:
"I think a complete plan should have its contingency plan. Can you tell me what General Bai's contingency plan is for the [New Family Change Plan]?"
Xu Xiaoxiao shook his head: "There is no emergency plan. Once it fails, the human race on this timeline will have no hope of turning around."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Sen did not show much surprise and continued to murmur:
"Ah, that's it. What's the probability of success?"
"I don't know, it's just a chance to try..." As if he felt that his answer would make Zhao Sen feel too hasty, Xu Xiaoxiao added uneasily:
"I have not changed a word of the original words of these white generals."
Zhao Sen nodded, with a nostalgic smile on his face: "I understand, it's Bai Donggu's style of doing things..."
