Observing the Tree of Life up close is a completely different experience than looking at it from a distance.
Only when he got close to this towering mountain of flesh could Wu Ming feel more shockingly and intuitively how twisted and blasphemous the existence of the Tree of Life was.
Under the direct sunlight, the colorful black carapace and the thick and intertwined meridians are slowly stirring. At all times, in the areas not covered by the black carapace, there are large growths and growths with fleshy whiskers. They are excrescences with limbs. They twist their limbs and tendrils as if they were parasites on the tree of life. When the curious baby Elizabeth touches her, she will quickly respond by curling up her limbs and whiskers.
Looking around, everything in front of you is squirming pieces of flesh and black carapace shining with colorful light. Occasionally, some dark green pus bubbles will pop up at the foot of the meat mountain of the Tree of Life, beating as fast as a heart and then disappear again after a few minutes. When it explodes, green pus will splash everywhere, and then it will be silently absorbed by the squirming pieces of flesh...
No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to think that it is the product of natural evolution.
"The shield and life-support module maintain normal operation..." Wu Ming checked the energy consumption of the auxiliary device. "The energy consumption has been in a stable state, and there is no sign of any attack. Either what Brother Shuren said is completely It’s unreliable, or the tree of life is a blind star who is a Korean server master..."
The shield module that is activated at any time can completely isolate attacks and the penetration of harmful substances and rays. For the sake of caution, Wu Ming even turned on the protection on the ground under his feet, completely wrapping the several of them in shields. The life-support module deployed inside the shield ensures the purification of harmful substances that may remain in the internal environment.
There has been no additional energy consumption, and even the fluctuations in energy consumption have remained stable, which basically eliminates the possibility of being attacked by the Tree of Life.
Siegfried shook his head: "Captain, there is no need to lie to us about this kind of thing..."
"It is speculated that according to the intelligence shared by the Dragonman individual Siegfried, the Tree of Life has no time to take care of us at the moment. It is 80% likely to be dealing with other matters that are more important than dealing with the intruders and ensuring its own safety..." Zhao Sida He guessed with a twinkle in his eye. "There is a high probability that the Tree of Life will detect the fall of Sky City, and is trying to actively contact the system AI of Sky City to speed up its own completion."
Although the sky city of Glamorgan has fallen and the bad AI on it cannot actively contact the Tree of Life, this does not mean that the crisis has been resolved. On the other hand, if the Tree of Life has this consciousness and actively extends its roots in the direction of Glamorgan's fall, then it is only a matter of time before the two complete the fusion.
"Then we should speed up." Wu Ming turned around and stretched out his hand to press hard on the black carapace on the surface of the tree of life. "Hurry and pack up and leave. Anyway, this thing is only for touching..."
He used the processing threads and energy of the auxiliary device that were squeezed to the limit to open the module of the containment space, and prepared to install this thing into the containment space according to the established means.
Except that the containment space cannot accommodate purely abstract concepts, or simple phenomena, or lives on the second level of the life ladder, basically there are no special restrictions or requirements on the use of other creatures that can be forcibly contained. Even if it is an incredibly large life form like the Tree of Life, in Wu Ming's eyes, it can only be touched.
Although it may be a bit unfair to Siegfried to be forced to contain her, after all, her obsession has always been to end the tree of life. If such a big tree of life in front of her is wiped out by Wu Ming, she will only be left with nothing in her heart. With revenge as her spiritual pillar, she would definitely not buy it.
But Wu Ming's expression froze in the next second.
"ERROR! The selected unit is a divine life form and cannot be contained."
"If you want to complete the containment of divine life forms, please quickly contact the director of Lucky Ancient God Office to activate the VIP service. Activate the divine cage to imprison divine life forms and demigod beings. There are discounts for activating now, and more Please find out the details of VIP privileges by yourself after activation ~ Boy, you probably think that divine creatures can also be forcibly contained, right? If you really think so, you are totally wrong! This is a special creature with some second-level life properties Life forms are so much higher than those ordinary life forms. You don’t have to use your brain to think about it, can you become stronger without recharging money? Hahahahahaha!”
The tree of life in front of him was not forcibly dragged into the containment space like the gods, mimic creatures, and the diverse Elizabeths who were invited by Wu Ming to live in the private room in the past. Instead, a dialog box popped up, and then the director That mean voice echoed in Wu Ming's ears.
Wu Ming could even vaguely see the director pointing his head with his finger through this message, and then laughing and mocking him unscrupulously.
At first, Wu Ming thought that he had not heard the director's voice and smile for several days, and that he was beginning to have hallucinations in his mind. But after clicking a few more times, he realized...this was not a fucking hallucination! This bitchy boss actually recorded a video and played it on a loop in his head!
"Sister! I am your employee after all! You can just turn me into a victim of a genuine user... Why do you need to open a membership to use this! The promised company provides labor insurance!"
However, the director did not reply to the message Wu Ming was roaring in his heart and sent to her through the auxiliary device. I am afraid that even if he did see it, he would pretend not to hear it and ignore him.
"Brother, what are you talking about...?" Elizabeth tugged at the corner of Wu Ming's clothes, bringing him back to reality from his daze, "Time is running out, right? Then shouldn't we hurry up and find the core of the Tree of Life? ?”
Wu Mingsheng rubbed his face helplessly to calm down his collapsed mood: "Ah...it's nothing, it's just because my cheap boss complicated things that were easy to solve, so I had no choice but to vent my emotions. . The original plan is cancelled, and we can only use Plan B to find the core of the Tree of Life. Brother Fei, do you have any information about the location of the core?"
"I have some clues..." Siegfried's expression was a little uncertain. She swung the black iron sword and danced like a tiger to the wind. With one strike of the sword, there was no black carapace covering the tree of life, only growths and growths. A gap the size of a person was made in the flesh, and she turned sideways to avoid the yellowish turbid liquid that spewed out. "The information left by Tachibana does contain memories of the fatal weakness of the Tree of Life, but the specific location is unclear. Clearly, although there are several locations in my memory that I feel are very important and I have written them down, and I know how to get to these locations, I am not sure whether we can find what we want in the two locations..."
"And the distances between several locations are very large, and they are basically scattered throughout the tree of life..."
Zhao Sida picked up Elizabeth, who was drooling at the corner of her mouth and wanted to get into the gap. She looked at Wu Ming, who was holding his chin in deep thought: "Do you want to split up?"
