I'm sprouting again

The sound of footsteps approaching from a distance broke the awkward situation.

The rescue team is here.

In addition to Zang Zhan, there were also Lu Rong.

Lu Rong is Zang Feng's attending physician. As soon as he walked into the atrium, he immediately took out several large detectors from the space button, and then asked someone to strip Zang Feng and Bai Xiao clean and throw them into the atrium. In the two detectors, even chicks and "freshly baked" beans were not spared.

Bai Xiao began to struggle a bit—there was a crowd watching the scene, and there was a girl, right?

But soon he was attracted by the naked body of Zang Feng next to him, and then he immediately lowered his head and silently recited the mantra of pure heart. Fortunately, when he was thrown into the instrument full of pale golden transparent liquid, Xiaobai still did not move Like a mountain, he successfully stabilized the impulse to rise up.

This liquid is very mild and has a calming effect. Bai Xiao floated in it, and fell into a trance with a hazy consciousness.

When Bai Xiao came out from inside, wrapped in a big bath towel, he felt a little complicated.

Seven or eight large tents have been set up in the open space of the atrium, and even a dining table has been set up. There is little smoke in the temporary kitchen next to it, and the food is waiting to be served.

His Excellency the Prince was sitting on a sofa drinking tea gracefully, with a chicken cub that was still awake squatting on his lap, and a little pangolin was gesticulating on the armrest of the sofa.

Bai Xiao: "..."

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether they were here for rescue or for an outing.

Zang Zhan looked up at Bai Xiao, showing a warm smile: "Go and change your clothes, dry your hair, don't catch a cold. Time is not urgent, we plan to stay overnight before leaving."

Bai Xiao: "...um."

Bai Xiao changed his clothes and came out, facing Zang Feng who had just taken care of himself.

Zang Feng's face was a little pale, but his mental state was not bad. When he saw Bai Xiao, Zang Feng's eyes were gentle. It looked the same as before, but it seemed a little different.

"eat first."

Zang Feng walked to the table and said to Bai Xiao.

The food was already set on the table, steaming hot and very plentiful.

Just wait for Bai Xiao and Zang Feng to take their seats.

The two sat down on the left and right of Zang Zhan.

There was not so much etiquette at the dining table outside, Zang Feng moved the meal first, and Bai Xiao was not polite - he was really hungry.

Zang Zhan didn't seem to be hungry, he didn't speak until Zang Feng and Bai Xiao had eaten some.

Zang Zhan said: "I arranged for Su Mei to be on the same team as Luo Qi and Bai Xiao for this collection mission."

Bai Xiao stopped chewing and looked up at Zang Zhan, not understanding what he meant by saying this, let alone what his intention for this arrangement was.

Su Mei and Luo Qi were also at the dining table, they ate in a gentle manner, and put down their knives and forks when they heard this.But judging from their expressions, they didn't seem surprised by what Zang Zhan said.

Zang Zhan stroked the warm, soft fluff of the cubs, and said calmly: "I know that you are all seeds, and I also know that you can use the power of seeds—but this really surprised me.

You get a lot of things from the seed power, which the Kesters have never gotten, such as: divine revelation. "

The expressions of Su Mei and Luo Qi changed slightly.

Zang Zhan smiled and said: "Although your actions are secretive, you should know that as seeds, your whereabouts are bound to be closely monitored by us.

You are looking for the place where the tree of life used to grow. The royal palace is too difficult to enter, so the ancient city river became the target.So I 'helped' you. "

Zang Zhan paused, glanced at Bai Xiao, then looked directly at Luo Qi and Su Mei, and asked, "I think, now that you know everything you should know, then, can you tell me about the power of seeds?" ?"

Bai Xiao swallowed the food in his mouth, and looked at Su Mei and Luo Qi - he didn't find anything unusual about them.

Su Mei and Rocky looked at each other and quickly reached an agreement.

Su Mei spoke first: "I and Rocky are both the 'knife' of the alliance, I think you also know that human beings have long known the existence of seed power and were assimilated, only then did the 'hunter' appear.

But the silent assimilation of these nourishing things is too slow for some people. "

This sentence seemed to touch Rocky's sore spot. He took Su Mei's words and said: "This kind of assimilated seed power is not the 'seed' of the tree of life at all, but in order to make it a 'seed', four people The class of countries formed a federation.

That organization is used to extract the power of those who have not yet become hunters—that is, those who have more seed power than ordinary people, but have not germinated to transform human bodies.

They succeeded, and Su Mei and I are finished products.There are still many failed products, or semi-finished products, but..."

Rocky didn't go any further, but judging from his expression, the situation of those "semi-finished products" didn't seem to be good.

Su Mei sighed, and continued: "But strictly speaking, we are not 'seeds', but containers for the power of seeds.

We're just 'knives' until one day we hear the call. "

Everyone present moved their eyes and looked at them more intently.

Su Mei said seriously: "It is a call rooted in consciousness, even if there is no selection of international students this time, we will come to Kester sooner or later.

In that voice, we have mastered the use of seed power, but it is not strong, not even a 'hunter'. "

Rocky also nodded: "We can't resist that kind of call. Although I really want to use this power to bite the alliance back, I can't do it."

Su Mei: "Today we arrived at the Gucheng River area - I didn't know why before, but now that I think about it, it should be because of Bai Xiao - we were brought here by the power of the tree of life.

At first, I thought it was to select us, but now..."

Su Mei and Luo Qi both looked at Bai Xiao.

Now they understand that this is just the tree of life's test for Bai Xiao.

Su Mei withdrew her gaze and smiled wryly: "After Bai Xiao fainted, the seed power of me and Rocky disappeared."

Rocky was also a little depressed, but he didn't feel any jealousy or resentment. Amidst the regret, there was a trace of relief.

For them, this power is the initial shackles and a sharp blade in their hands.Lost suddenly, the mood will indeed be very complicated.

But Bai Xiao's mood is even more complicated. The four-nation alliance and the experiment, such plots that only appear in movies, actually actually appeared in his life.

Bai Xiao instantly felt as if a new door had been opened to his world view.

But other people are very calm, compared to human experiments, they are more surprised that human beings can gather the 'seed power'.

And the experiment on the human side is definitely not just focusing on gathering strength—otherwise, the foreign students this time would not have let Su Mei and Rocky come over so easily.

"Then." Zang Zhan looked at Su Mei and Luo Qi, and asked, "What are your future plans?"

"Please allow us to stay in Kester."

Luo Qi and Su Mei said in unison.

Their identities on the human side are embarrassing. Although they came to Kester this time, the human side has made plans for various consequences.But once they go back, they are bound to become guinea pigs again.

Rather than being slaughtered like this, it is better to stay in Kester and become stronger.

"Yes." Zang Zhan responded very simply, "Although you have lost your seed power, the traces of your previous power are still there. Depending on your talent, you may be able to use magic power."

Both Luo Qi and Su Mei were overjoyed, and then expressed their determination to Zang Zhan even more firmly.

That's it for this topic.

Dinner continued, and no one spoke again.Zang Zhan simply fed the ball, pangolin, and bean cut meat on the table.

After the meal was over, Su Mei and Luo Qi walked over to the guard's side, leaving room for them to talk.

The four of them sat around a bonfire. Now that Qiudou had adapted to his new body, he couldn't sit still and was running and playing in the atrium.

Zang Zhan was still holding the chicken cub, like a hand stove, his eyes were lovingly chasing after Qiudou, and he retracted after a while, looked at Bai Xiao with a smile, and said: "When we came, Su Mei and Luo Qi had already passed away. Tell us about the game. It seems that they don't know that you have been approved by the tree of life-but you seem to have not fully obtained the power of the tree of life."

Bai Xiao is not surprised that Zang Zhan can see it, after all, he is the husband of the king, and he also has a ball bean who is having fun.

Bai Xiao glanced at Zang Feng, and Zang Feng also looked at him, but his eyes were calm, as if to say 'I support all your decisions'.

Bai Xiao's heart trembled, inexplicably remembering Zang Feng's previous promise - the most loyal knight.

I feel like someone is beating a drum in my heart, a drum made of sugar.

Bai Xiao withdrew his gaze, looked at Zang Zhan, and then told Zang Feng what he had said before.

In the end, Bai Xiao said: "My current power is not complete, and I need to find more seed power, and the egg yolk may be different from the previous guardian beasts, so I am not sure what will happen in the future.

But I will do my best to complete the Nirvana of the tree of life. "

"Also." After Bai Xiao finished speaking, he added, "I want to know what's going on with the 'contract breaker'?"

Bai Xiao turned to look at Lu Rong. Lu Rong's calm and smiling face was full of shock at this moment. It was obvious that everything Bai Xiao said just now was against his three views.

But Bai Xiao didn't give him time to calm down, "Also, is His Highness's illness related to the violation of the contract?"

Lu Rong came back to his senses and glanced at Zang Zhan.

Lu Rong has always known about the contract breaker and the tree of life, because he is Zang Feng's attending physician, but this matter is a secret of the royal family.

"It doesn't matter." Zang Zhan raised his hand, his expression was tired, and his reaction was still a little slow - obviously, what Bai Xiao said just now about the tree of life and the guardian beast did not have no effect on him.

Lu Rong nodded and admitted: "Yes, His Majesty's magic core can't accumulate magic power after birth, and can't use magic power. It has been declining since adulthood, and it can't be cured until now. And His Majesty's condition is even more serious than His Majesty's. .

As for breach of contract..."

Lu Rong looked at Zang Feng. Now both he and Zang Zhan need to digest the matter of the tree of life, and it is more appropriate for Zang Feng to discuss this matter.

Zang Feng understood what Lu Rong meant, and then told Bai Xiao in detail that the king violated the contract and forcibly kept the tree alive, creating the illusion that the tree of life was still alive.

After hearing everything, Bai Xiao was stunned.

The king's petite body and girlish personality came to his mind.

Is such a person actually enduring such great suffering all the time?

Bai Xiao pursed her lips and asked, "Now that I am a new tree of life, His Majesty the King can cancel the contract."

Zang Zhan smiled wryly: "Even if the contract is lifted, the punishment for the violators will not stop. Instead, the punishment will be the final judgment because of the cancellation of the contract. The only hope is that when you get all the power, you can create a new life After the tree, give her forgiveness."

Zang Zhan looked at Bai Xiao seriously, with earnest eyes: "Will you forgive her?"

"Of course." Bai Xiao replied without hesitation, "She did nothing wrong, she is a kind and great king."

Zang Zhan smiled, with a gentle smile: "Yes. She is."

Bai Xiao looked at Zang Zhan's smile, but felt a little bitter in his heart.

He turned his eyes away, but suddenly thought of something, and asked Lu Rong: "How is your Highness's magic core now? I... the tree of life has given him a guardian beast, which means that he has forgiven his violating bloodline, right?" .”

Lu Rong shook his head: "It's not getting better."

Bai Xiao was stunned: "How could this be?"

"You don't have a bond. You don't have the power to form a bond, and likewise, you don't have the power to erase the punishment for breaking the contract."

Zang Zhan said, "However, Xiaofeng's situation should not get worse."

Bai Xiao pursed her lips, then suddenly her eyes lit up, and she pulled out the small space button from her neckline: "I have..."

"Your buds, I know." Zang Zhan interrupted Bai Xiao, but shook his head slightly, "The healing effect of those buds on you is due to the return of magic power. But that is the power of the tree of life, and it is already If the power of the master's new tree is used on Xiaofeng or Shanna, it may be counterproductive."

Bai Xiao's hand paused, then slowly lowered.

"I will try my best to find other powers." Bai Xiao looked up with firm eyes, "I will definitely find it."
