Chapter 721: Paradise
"A huge rat head with a piece cut off" Zhuang Mingxu said very seriously.
He was so serious that Lu Weiyi felt that the possibility of him lying was zero, especially since Zhuang Mingxu calmly walked forward and took a closer look, and guessed in amazement how big the mutant mouse's body was.
“So, what we see are different,” Zhuang Mingxu concluded, but he didn’t feel anything was surprising. “Maybe the SSS level is really a level that is completely different from ordinary people, similar to the difference between appearance and essence.”
Seeing that Lu Weiyi didn't quite understand, Zhuang Mingxu didn't explain in detail. He was just guessing, "As for this..."
"Is it possible that the emitted energy was absorbed here, creating a place with rich energy, just like..." Zhuang Mingxu thought about it seriously, "the kind of blessed place in the world of cultivating immortals, where the effects of practicing can be multiplied several times."
"Zhou He and the others did say that my superpowers have improved a little. Is this the reason?" Lu Weiyi didn't think that such a small amount of energy could have such a powerful effect, but, "My superpowers have been fully restored."
In theory, both he and the Mutant Rat King are SSS level, and there will always be some loss in the process of absorbing energy, but after he absorbed the Mutant Rat King's body, he actually felt that all the energy was absorbed by himself, "After I absorbed it, the Rat King's body disappeared."
"No residual material left?".
Lu Weiyi shook his head. This was one of the reasons why he thought it was impossible. He had absorbed most of the energy of a mutant rat king. A rat head was just a tiny bit of energy to him. It was not enough to cause such a big impact. Besides...
I have never heard of energy being absorbed by people after it dissipates. Otherwise, there are so many crystal cores in their base, but the people guarding the warehouse have not seen any increase in their superpowers.
Zhuang Mingxu pondered for a while, and suddenly asked, "Where is Gu Sheng's crystal core?"
"?" Lu Weiyi reacted and stretched out his hand in one direction. The shelf where the crystal cores were stored was now empty. On the top was an inconspicuous box, which was handed to Lu Weiyi by his mental power.
"Here, its crystal core is different from ordinary crystal cores, I..." Lu Weiyi stood there in a daze as he looked at the opened crystal core.
Zhuang Mingxu stepped forward and took a look. He saw that there were only a few broken crystal core residues left in the box. It looked like an empty shell left after absorbing the energy of the crystal core. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Weiyi, "Is it like this from the beginning?"
"No," Lu Weiyi confirmed, and told Zhuang Mingxu about the original situation, saying, "At that time, I only had a guess about the SSS-level crystal core being integrated into his body, and in a hurry I wanted to dig out his crystal core, but after my mental power entered his forehead, I saw the crystal core at his forehead..."
"It appears that energy is wrapping around the crystal core fragments. I didn't understand it at the time, but now I think that the energy he upgraded should be the energy of other psychics. This makes it impossible for his crystal core to be completely integrated into his body and used by himself. This is also the culprit that caused his mental problems."
As he spoke, Lu Weiyi picked up a piece of small broken pieces, observed them and said, "These should be the fragments that he could not absorb... There is no energy left in them."
"Based on the situation of the mutant rat king you have seen before, is it possible that... the energy here has dissipated into the space without your knowledge?" Zhuang Mingxu asked.
Lu Weiyi looked at the space, and nothing had changed anywhere here.
"What's there?" Zhuang Mingxu asked, walking towards the big tree.
Taotao, who was held in his arms, seemed to sense something. The branches of the peach tree quickly came forward and wrapped around Taotao, bringing her back to the tree house on the trunk. After the rustling sound, Taotao stuck his head out again, and above his head appeared a tiger head that was bigger than his.
"I*" Zhuang Mingxu couldn't help but curse, mainly because the gap was too big, especially when Lao Hu opened his mouth and yawned, it seemed as if he could hold Tao Tao's entire head in it.
"Hurry, hurry and take the child out..." Zhuang Mingxu said in a trembling voice.
Lu Weiyi was also startled. After all, this was quite different from the little tiger cub he had stuffed into the space, and...
He brought Taotao over. The little tiger was struggling to climb the tree with its claws. Then it fell down and ran towards the three people, making a howling sound.
"Dad, grandma, Taotao wants to drink milk," Taotao said flatteringly, approaching Zhuang Mingxu.
"Okay," Zhuang Mingxu agreed without saying a word, and made milk powder for Taotao while asking Lu Weiyi what was going on.
"I don't know. I put him in a nest and never took care of him." Lu Weiyi had a lot of things to worry about, and such a small thing entering the space did not make any big noise and did not get his attention at all.
"It looks like it's three months old." Zhuang Mingxu handed the bottle to Taotao, thinking about how to check on the little tiger. He saw Taotao drink a few sips and then put the bottle directly into the little tiger's mouth. The little tiger immediately lay on its back on the ground, holding the bottle with its two paws and drinking loudly.
Taotao half crawled on its head, stroking its neck constantly, and said boastfully, "Daddy, my big cat, I raised it."
The little tiger made a gurgling sound in his throat and scratched Taotao from time to time, which did not affect his drinking of milk at all.
“……”Zhuang Mingxu.
"It... seems to be S-grade," Lu Weiyi said with difficulty.
Zhuang Mingxu turned to look at him in surprise, "When I was born?"
Lu Weiyi pursed his lips and shook his head uncertainly, "Probably not." Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so calm after he caught him, but he really didn't pay attention.
Zhuang Mingxu knew what he meant by looking at his expression. He looked at Taotao in his arms and the lush peach tree in the space. If this thing had benefits, Taotao hadn't grown. If it had no benefits, the leaves on the tree didn't look like it either. "Anyway, it must be wrong for it to grow so fast. As for whether the upgrade is affected by energy, I'll let Zhou He come over to experiment later."
Lu Weiyi nodded and talked about another thing, "This mouse is talking to me in a very strange way. We can communicate. Please help me think about how it did it. I think it's amazing."
"..."Zhuang Mingxu looked at him helplessly. Seeing that he was so interested, he actually felt that he could really think of it. He sighed and said, "It might be a kind of brain wave."
"It's the same as when you created illusions for people before. You used mental power to affect brain waves, thus affecting people's thinking." Zhuang Mingxu gestured to him to look at the little tiger in front of him who was full and rolling around with Taotao. "You need to slowly gain the specific implementation methods from practice."
At this point, he also became excited, "If we can communicate with animals, can we tame a group of mutant birds? We will have an extra bodyguard on the way back to the base, if there are flying birds..."
His mind instantly recalled the mutant green peacock that he had seen before. Such a beautiful creature was hard to forget once you had seen it.
Seeing the expression on his face, Lu Weiyi guessed what he was thinking about. After all, if he wasn't obsessed with beauty, he wouldn't be whispering to an unconscious person.
"Let me try." Lu Weiyi knew that he could no longer rely on him in the future, so he had to bite the bullet and do it himself.
"Then bring Zhou He in to take a look later, while the Rat King's energy is still there." Zhuang Mingxu looked around the space. The only villa that could be used as a cover was gone. What was left were the stacked shelves. With Zhou He's smart brain, he knew where it was at a glance.
"Then just bring it in directly," Lu Weiyi stretched out his hand and rubbed the little tiger's neck, saying rudely.
"There's a difference between knowing something and pointing it out directly," Zhuang Mingxu said regretfully, "If I had known, I would have let him in before the villa was destroyed."
"If it were at the base, we could take the Rat Head directly to the island. Even if it has escaped, it has reached our territory. It would be a waste to take it away now..." Zhuang Mingxu was muttering on and on as he tried to find a solution. On the other side, Lu Weiyi was getting a little impatient because of repeated unsuccessful communication with the little tiger.
"Relax and imagine how you felt when your mental power affected the animals within kilometers around you. Creating illusions for animals is similar to the same thing."
Seeing Lu Weiyi gradually relaxing, but the little tiger didn't want to play with him and wanted to find Taotao, Zhuang Mingxu had to take Taotao out of the space.
Outside the space, things were in full swing. Zhou He was carrying several bags of crystal cores sorted into different categories towards this side. After the processed mutant mice were simply pickled, the water was directly drained by the water-based mutant and made into jerky.
In a relatively short time, the crops were piled up neatly like a stack of firewood to a height of six or seven meters. The faces of the team members coming and going were filled with the joy of a good harvest, as if they had returned to the autumn of the first year when the Yuebanwan base was established, when they were looking at the golden fields that stretched for miles.
"Mingxu" Wu Yue saw Zhuang Mingxu coming out with the child, and immediately trotted over and asked in a low voice about the next plan.
"More than one group of people from the Mountain God Base have asked me about the arrangements?"
"They want to follow us?" Zhuang Mingxu asked.
"Definitely. I asked Sun Cheng to take a brief look at the situation of several members of the Sugar Cube Team. They can't rely on Mo Tiantian's ability, so they can only go back and ask Dean to repair them. I counted, and there are ten of their family members alone, and..."
Wu Yue paused for a moment and continued, "There are still more than 4,000 people here, and more than 3,000 of them have various plants planted in their bodies, including the family members of Ji Zheng and others. If we don't care..." Then any wood-type mutant would be enough to kill these people.
"We don't do business at a loss. Ask them what they can give." Zhuang Mingxu immediately regained his shrewd look. Seeing Wu Yue turning around and preparing to leave, he grabbed him and said, "Don't be so clear. I think the situation outside is not good."
"Even if we return, we will definitely send people to explore the way first. After all, we haven't been in contact for a whole winter, and we don't know what the situation is at the base. Let's send someone back to check and stabilize the people here in a short period of time."
Wu Yue immediately understood what he meant and asked in a serious tone, "Do you think something will happen to the base?"
"Just keeping a backup plan." Zhuang Mingxu's face didn't show that they were discussing such a serious topic. He even smiled and waved to the teammates passing by.
"I understand. You want to go back secretly?" Wu Yue glanced into the room.
"We haven't discussed it yet. It depends on Xiaoyi's ability." If he could really communicate with animals, maybe he could realize the Flying Bird Team, Zhuang Mingxu thought happily.
