Chapter 160: Tree King [Second Update]
"Red Scale?" He Ziqian subconsciously began to search his memory with Red Scale as the keyword when he suddenly heard Ruan Xi's scream. This time, he directly advanced the time to six months, and he actually found it.
"It's really Chi Lin!" Moreover, it happened not just once, but almost every time during the whole body inspection, he could feel such energy fluctuations. However, He Ziqian at that time could not interpret the meaning of this energy fluctuation.
Now it seems that at least it has been proven that Chilin is also a creature from a higher-level plane, not just a mecha.
"Why don't we call Chi Lin out and try it on the spot? Maybe if we put these eggs with Chi Lin together, some chemical reaction will occur!" Ruan Xi said this excitedly, with excitement flashing in his eyes, and he didn't look troubled at all.
"Okay." He Ziqian immediately summoned Chi Lin. The huge red mecha stood quietly beside the two of them and greeted them politely and intimately.
"Master, Xiaoxi, is there anything I can do for you?" The tone and attitude were quite gentlemanly. Ruan Xi liked it very much anyway.
"Yes, yes. Wait a minute. Let me test the medicinal properties of this thing first, so that I won't hurt you." Ruan Xi was quite serious. The way he cared for Chi Lin was so caring that it didn't seem like he was treating a mecha. He treated him like his own child, and doted on him very much.
"Maybe I can help you." After saying that, Chi Lin took out a square metal box from his folding space and gently placed it in front of Ruan Xi. Then, he opened the metal box, and inside was the component analyzer in Ruan Xi's exclusive laboratory. It was specially sent to him by His Royal Highness the First Prince and represented the most advanced technology in the entire Yinyu Empire.
"Chilin, when did you bring this instrument out? How did you get into my laboratory?" Ruan Xi was very sure that his small laboratory could not accommodate a big guy like Chilin. Could it be that Chilin had some helper?
"Of course it was the master who helped. I suggested it." Chi Lin did not take all the credit, nor did he deliberately hide his contribution. He said this very beautifully. Ruan Xi and He Ziqian were both shocked by Chi Lin's "humanity".
"You guys are smart. Mine isn't that good when it comes to mechanical stuff. It's much more convenient with an analyzer. Let's get started right away!" Although Ruan Xi could sense that the energy in these "eggs" was safe and that the "eggs" as a whole were safe, there was no data analysis as a basis. To be on the safe side, Ruan Xi was willing to take the extra trouble.
What's more, with the analyzer, he only needs to take a sample, put it into the instrument, and then wait for the results. It couldn't be simpler.
The analysis results came out quickly. Just as Ruan Xi had previously judged, the "egg" was completely safe. However, before this final result, there was a long list of specific analysis data. When Ruan Xi and He Ziqian saw it, they were a little confused.
"This result... does it mean that it can be perfectly integrated with metal materials? Shouldn't this be a medicinal herb? Could it be a herb specifically for machinery? That's not impossible..."
Such a result was somewhat unexpected for Ruan Xi. The first fifth of the content proved Ruan Xi's previous judgment on medicinal materials. This egg-shaped plant is rich in repair active molecules and is the preferred material for the production of external trauma medicines. The effectiveness of the production, the speed and effect of healing trauma are at least doubled than the trauma medicines currently on the market. Such data prospects are absolutely amazing no matter where they are placed.
However, the remaining four-fifths of the data indicate that these eggs are more compatible with machinery and metals. Repair fluids refined from these materials will significantly increase the speed of repairing damaged machinery. For example, if the appropriate proportion of the new repair fluid is added to the mecha materials during preparation, the mecha's self-repair capabilities will be enhanced from the very beginning. This, in turn, will significantly increase the survival rate of the mecha and its pilot on the battlefield.
This is definitely a great discovery that can change a country's strength. However, the discoverer of this great discovery is only excited and can't wait to practice the efficacy of the new drug.
So, before the experiment, the potion must be made first. The best experimental subject is naturally the gentlemanly and elegant Chi Lin.
"I will directly use the wood-type ability to extract the effective ingredients. This is faster." Ruan Xi just wanted to inform He Ziqian. Before he finished speaking, he had already started working. He Ziqian wanted to respond, but was afraid of disturbing her boyfriend who was working hard.
Well, he didn't intend to disturb them. Instead, he quietly searched around again and brought back a dozen big white eggs.
He Ziqian discovered that the deeper they went into the mountains and forests, the more beautiful the eggs became, and their size also gradually decreased. It was difficult to see clearly if they took out two eggs separately, but if they put all the eggs together and observed them, they could clearly see the changes in the size of the eggs.
"It's really getting smaller and smaller..." However, when it comes to plants, He Ziqian is really not that professional. Even if he racks his brains, he probably can't come up with a conclusion. So he decided to wait until Ruan Xi is done with her work, and then they will go to find the answer together.
He had a feeling that their treasure hunt on this strange planet might not end so easily.
Ruan Xi's progress was fast and smooth. Two hours later, he got a bucket of active ingredient extract. Moreover, the entire process was processed with wood-type supernatural powers, so there was no need for secondary preparation or processing. It could be used directly on Chi Lin.
"It's impossible to apply it all over Chi Lin's body with just such a small bucket. Let's start from the inside. The core, energy tank, energy pipelines, these are the key parts!" Ruan Xi was ambitious and had made up his mind. When the experimental results came out, he must apply a layer of it all over Chi Lin's body inside and out, giving Chi Lin a layer of tough armor.
"Let me do it. You look at these eggs. They seem to be getting smaller and smaller, and more and more like eggs. I don't know why this change has caused it. I guess we can only find the answer by going deeper into the forest." He Ziqian expressed his judgment and handed over the research to Ruan Xi. He carried a small bucket and went into the interior of Chilin, working tirelessly.
The experimental results were not yet apparent, and Chi Lin was taken back. The two of them took advantage of the early morning and sped up their pace to explore deeper into the forest. Along the way, they found quite a few eggs. Moreover, as they had previously concluded, the deeper they went into the forest, the smaller the eggs became and the smoother their surfaces became. In the end, they were almost only the size of snake eggs. The surface was so smooth that no matter how carefully the two of them observed, they could not find any root-like patterns. If it were not for the energy fluctuations that Ruan Xi could feel, they still belonged to plants. He could not convince himself.
"Why did this change happen? Is it a purely natural change, or... is it controlled by something?" As the two analyzed it, they thought of the tree king they had originally envisioned.
"Sure enough, there is a tree king here, right? I suddenly have a hunch that we are about to find it!" Ruan Xi's feeling was indeed sudden. He himself felt puzzled, but it was quite believable. He became excited unconsciously.
"We have already entered the deep forest. Where is the tree king hiding?" Unlike Ruan Xi's excitement, He Ziqian suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He subconsciously grabbed Ruan Xi, who was jogging forward excitedly, and wanted to pull him behind him to protect him just in case.
However, accidents always come unexpectedly.
The warnings from He Ziqian and the big tree sounded almost at the same time, but Ruan Xi's combat awareness was still a little lagging. He only had time to look up at the direction of the strange noise before something wrapped around his waist and then swept him forward. Ruan Xi only reacted at this time, but it was too late to break free. At this time, the big tree had been weakened unknowingly to the point that even its branches could not extend out of the atlas space. However, this limitation was only limited to the big tree and had no effect on the plant atlas.
"Watch out for the tree in front of you on the left!"
"no problem!"
After undergoing her boyfriend's devilish training, Ruan Xi's fighting ability is now quite impressive. Although she cannot escape the clamp for the time being, she can still ensure that she does not hit the tree while moving at high speed.
He Ziqian was chasing at a very fast speed, because he could see that Ruan Xi had already made normal evasive movements and was sure that he would not be in too much danger for the time being, so he did not forcibly invade the air area, but only moved quickly on the ground, following Ruan Xi's figure.
The two of them, one in the air and the other on the ground, moved at high speed deeper into the forest. However, the further they went, the denser the trees became. In the end, there were only countless towering trees left, and the gaps between the trees were barely wide enough for one person to squeeze through.
As a result, Ruan Xi's dodging movements seemed quite strenuous. Being dragged all the way here must have been exhausting. If he wasn't a wood-type mutant whose energy was constantly repairing his body, he would have collapsed from exhaustion by now... Oh no, he probably didn't even have the qualifications to collapse. He would have probably crashed into one tree after another, turning into a pile of flesh...
Ugh, what a disgusting way to die, I absolutely don’t want it!
Thinking of this, Ruan Xi cheered up again. While dodging the big trees that kept coming towards him, he tried for the umpteenth time to untie the black roots wrapped around his waist.
It is indeed the king of trees. Looking at the power of its roots, I wonder how strong its body is. Ruan Xi shuddered silently in his heart, but he had long put aside the fear.
If he doesn't deal with the tree king thoroughly, the tree will continue to become weaker and may even be forcibly teleported back. Even worse, even the small trees won't be able to come over. Wouldn't he be forced to go back to the time before liberation?
Don’t be alone!
Hey, little doctor, where do you put your boyfriend who is running wildly on the ground?
