Mystery Journey (25)
Zhou had no power in front of Xia Yuanji. It was obvious that he was stronger than Xia Yuanji, but as soon as they started talking, he would be inexplicably suppressed.
But Xia Yuanji was gentle and polite, and every word he said hit the nail on the head. Even if Zhou wanted to refute him, he couldn't find any fault, so he could only hold his anger in his heart.
Shi Jianxia did not indulge in the joy of seeing her father for too long, as she soon realized that the operation was a failure.
Lu didn't die, and he took away some of the higher-level Zerg. They can freely travel through the universe through the Zerg Vortex. Now that the Zerg can no longer stay in the universe, the most likely place they will move to is...
It’s the human universe!
This realization made Shi Jianxia's scalp tingle.
There are five powerful saints in the Federation, and there are four powerful saints under Lu's command. Once they go to the human universe, conflict will inevitably break out.
Shi Jianxia grabbed Zhou, who was holding his breath and about to leave, and asked hurriedly, "Did Lu go to the human universe?"
Zhou then remembered what he had just said to Shi Jianxia. He ignored the awkwardness in his heart and said, "He was injured by my star core, so he probably wouldn't dare to show up in the human universe easily. But his only destination right now is indeed the human universe."
Shi Jianxia frowned.
Lu is brutal and warlike. To him, humans are no different from low-level Zerg that can be crushed to death at any time. Even if he is injured, because of the festival that she and Zhou jointly forced him to leave today, he will never hide away to recuperate. It is more likely that he will turn the human universe upside down.
As a result, today's action not only failed to achieve the intended purpose, but also had a counterproductive effect.
Seeing her frown, Xia Yuanji patted her shoulder and said, "Lu sent his lower-level Zerg to invade the human universe hundreds of years ago. But over the years, he never completely occupied the human universe, nor did he send higher-level Zerg to further seize resources. Do you know why?"
Shi Jianxia looked up at him.
Xia Yuanji explained, "It's because of the power of the star core. The desolate planet that exploded hundreds of years ago was the source of the star core's power. After it exploded, the power of the star core spread throughout the universe. Some people gained a small amount of its power, and thus awakened their mimicry."
This is a conjecture that many people know, but few people know the relationship between the star core and the Zerg. Even Shi Jianxia, who can use the power of the star core, does not know why the star core can both nourish the Zerg and restrain the Zerg.
"The reason why researchers in the past named them stellar cores is because they came from the desolate star that exploded. Even if the energy inside was greatly consumed, it would slowly recover. But according to the doctor's research..."
Having said this, Xia Yuanji paused and continued, "The star core is very likely the source of power for all things in the universe, and that desolate planet is very likely to come from the Zerg universe."
"Although we don't know why it exploded, the energy from its explosion radiated to every planet in the human universe. Humans, like the Zerg, can absorb the energy floating in the universe and strengthen themselves."
"The Zerg's need for the power of the star core is limited. During the larval stage, the star core can promote the Zerg's rapid growth. When they grow into adults, the star core will suppress their power. These two situations are very significant for higher-level Zerg."
"Because of that explosion, the power of the star core exists in every corner of the human universe. Therefore, when advanced Zerg appear in the human universe, their power will be limited to a certain extent."
"The doctor also speculated that higher-level Zerg cannot remain in the human universe for long. As for the reason, he has not yet figured it out."
Xia Yuanji told Shi Jianxia everything he had heard during the years he was controlled by the doctor.
These speculations have traces to follow. When the Zerg first invaded the human universe, the number of extraordinary strongmen was pitifully small, let alone the strong ones in the Holy Realm. If Lu wanted to occupy the human universe, with his strength, it would be effortless.
"Before I arrived, the Zerg had already begun a large-scale invasion of the human universe. Fortunately, the Young Rivers have strictly planned the Zerg-occupied areas, and the five Saint Realm experts are also monitoring the high-risk Zerg-occupied areas in real time. The current situation is still under the control of the Federation."
When Xia Yuanji led the team through the deep-sea rift, he actually didn't know that he would come to the Zerg universe. As a father, he wanted to find his daughter. As a federal officer, he had to bring back Shi Jianxia who could curb the development of the Zerg.
After hearing this, Zhou looked thoughtful.
When Shi Jianxia called him but he didn't respond, he directly grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Is what Dad said correct?"
The doctor's conjectures are basically impossible to be confirmed unless they are certified by the Zerg.
Zhou stared at his sleeve being pulled with a malicious look and said coldly: "Do you think I would tell you such an important thing?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Jianxia made an OK gesture, "Then it seems to be correct."
The PhD may not be a very good person, but as a researcher, he is indeed beyond reach.
Day: "?t"
Zhuo pulled back his sleeve, "What's right?"
Shi Jianxia pulled his sleeve back again and said, "Hurry up and take me back to the human universe. We can't let Lu go on a killing spree over there."
When a strong person in the Holy Domain goes crazy, even people who are also strong people in the Holy Domain cannot stop him.
Tonight's action isn't over yet.
Zhuo said with a forced smile, "You are so rude to me, and you still want me to help you?"
Shi Jianxia blinked and said, "You are my half-brother, so shouldn't I be rude to you? Besides, Mom said that when she gets better, she will make me a small cake. I will give you a piece then."
Xia Yuanji: “…”
day:"……"
Gongye Jiwang and others who had never seen how Shi Jianxia dealt with Zhou: "..."
Zhou gnashed his teeth and said, "I want half!"
The bee-faced figurine who came to look for his precious little bee: "..."
Shi Jianxia made the decision and said, "Deal!"
All creatures present: "..."
Zhou didn't think there was anything wrong with compromising for the sake of the cake. He was about to speak when he suddenly saw Xia Yuanji with a look of relief on his face, and the feeling of frustration that had just subsided came back again.
He pulled back his sleeves, trying to focus on the matter at hand. "Your human bodies are too weak. If you rashly cross the vortex, you will be like this guy before, your mimicry failing and finally shattering."
This guy was undoubtedly referring to Xia Yuanji.
"Then what should we do? Are you going?" Shi Jianxia frowned.
She imagined a large group of advanced Zerg suddenly pouring into the human universe, confronting and fighting each other, and the scene would probably scare Ji Yang and the others to death.
Zhou shook his head. "The star core will protect you. It won't be dangerous to cross the vortex. I can take you back, but no one else can."
So that's how it is. Shi Jianxia immediately said, "It's okay to just take me back. Dad and the others can wait until the seabed rift opens before going back."
Xia Yuanji was worried. "My mimicry was awakened through the star core, so it should be possible—"
"You can't." Zhou interrupted him righteously.
Shi Jianxia: "..."
These three words are somewhat tinged with personal grudges.
She, in turn, comforted Xia Yuanji: "Dad, just take me back with you. With him here, no one can hurt me. Besides, Mom just woke up and needs someone to take care of her. She will be very happy to see you."
Zhou, who just thought he had turned the game around, said: "..."
When Xia Yuanji heard the news about Shi Ting, his pupils dilated slightly, and he had an uncontrollable urge to go see her immediately, but he was still worried about Shi Jianxia.
Shi Jianxia knew what he was thinking, smiled and hugged him, "I'll be fine, mom needs you more now."
Her father's arms were still as warm and safe as ever, but she was no longer the little girl who liked to stay in her father's arms.
Lu must die, and the mess in the Federation must be resolved.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Xia Yuanji gently touched her head and whispered, "Then Dad and Mom will wait here for you and Xiao Zhou to come back."
Zhou snorted coldly, "This is my territory, I will naturally come back."
The bee-faced man put the little bee that flew back into the flower bud, and turned to look at him when he heard this.
If I remember correctly, when this guy was first brought back by it, he hid in the tree house all day long with his butt facing it, and when he was angry, he even wanted to go back to the human universe.
When he grew up and seized half of the territory from Lu, he kept thinking about going to the human universe to find Shi Ting. He also said that he didn't want to be the king anymore and wanted to hand over the bee tribe to him.
The bee-faced man was almost disgusted with this cheap brother.
Zhuo had no idea that he was being criticized by the bee-faced man. He grabbed Shi Jianxia by the collar, released a golden insect vortex, and was about to take her away.
Gongye Jiwang, who had been standing aside obediently, quickly stepped forward and gently hugged Shi Jianxia in front of everyone, "I'll wait for you to come back."
Xia Yuanji raised his eyebrows slightly.
Zhou narrowed his eyes.
Baili Xuanyao looked at Xia Yuanji, then at Zhou, and lit a candle for his good brother.
Shi Jianxia had been hugged by him before, and at this moment she felt inexplicably blushing, her ears were burning, and she hummed twice randomly.
Zhou snorted coldly and turned to give the bee-faced man a look.
——After I leave, let this guy continue to collect honey.
The bee-faced man turned his head silently, pretending not to see anything.
Zhou thought the message had been delivered, so he waved his hand lightly. The golden power turned into an invisible big hand, grabbed Gongye Jiwang by the back of his collar, lifted him up, and threw him about ten meters away.
Without waiting for Shi Xia to react, he pulled the man away and stepped into the vortex.
Baili Xuanyao narrowly caught Gongye Jiwang who was about to fall to the ground and gave him a thumbs up.
Gongye Ji looked at him.
The golden worm vortex has not disappeared, which means that the power of day is still connected to this universe.
Shi Jianxia left the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" in the insect vortex of the day, so that the cubs who were devouring the insect vortex and cleaning it could temporarily stay in the Zerg universe.
As soon as I closed my eyes and opened them again, the dark night disappeared, replaced by a vast ocean with no end in sight.
