A tree? A tree in the center
Xia Libo looked a little confused, but he did not refute or rebuke Xu Le or the like. Instead, he stopped and thought for a while.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Seeing Xia Libo's seriousness, Xu Le's expression also became serious.
"I am sure."
"The location of the core?"
"Yes, the core location."
"Well, this is your idea after all, and it is your right."
Originally Xu Le thought that Xia Libo would tell him a bunch of scientific principles and the like, but unexpectedly, Xia Libo agreed so easily without even asking him what the tree was used for.
"Aren't you going to ask about the purpose of this tree? If you just promise me this, will the other research participants agree?"
Xu Le knew very well that these researchers were not easy to talk to.
In particular, some researchers have very rigid brains. They are a group of people who stick to their principles, are not slick, and are hard-headed.
Although this is the essential situation of many scientific researchers, Xu Le also understands that scientific research should be done with unity and focus.
But in actual negotiations, it becomes very difficult to communicate with such people, especially when they are involved in the actual construction of items, they will not allow the addition of any unknown additional items.
"Since I've promised you, I will convince them. You don't have to worry about that. Do you have any other requests?"
"there is none left."
"Okay, then let's get started with the construction of the furnace!"
After that, the manufacture of the furnace and the factory building began to proceed simultaneously, because the furnace was not only a concept of an energy furnace, but also a strange directional cleaning device, or some kind of selfish motive of Xu Le...
But after the initial fluctuations, the Guangming Soap Factory, under the undercurrent of Zion, seemed to become less noticeable.
Because Zion’s parliamentary election is coming soon, in April, which is after the next black tide.
As for the positions above Zion, anyone with a little idea would want to touch them.
This is very difficult for many people, but when you really do it, you will find that becoming a member of parliament is not impossible.
Zhang Nuoan once had similar ideas.
In order to prepare for their own situation, everyone in Zion calmed down tacitly and waited.
Whether it is the parliament, Gu Yin’s descendants, or Xu Le and others themselves.
Everyone was busy again, but Xia Libo and the others were busy building the furnace, while Xu Le was busy practicing and making final preparations for his promotion to LV3.
…
A month later, peace returned to Zion.
In the north of the world, in the Red Moon Temple area.
Training camp for peripheral members of the Owl organization.
Bang!
Gu Beichen was thrown heavily to the ground...
However, the situation here was not that someone was targeting Gu Beichen, but that a warlock puppet was beating up everyone in a classroom.
"You so-called geniuses are nothing more than a bunch of trash to me. You are just puppets. It's been three days and more than 20 of you can't beat a puppet. If you are not trash, what are you?"
The man in the center of the field was yelling and scolding more than 20 warlocks who came to teach and discipline their practice.
Gu Beichen is just one of these sorcerers.
If it were him in the past, after being insulted and scolded in such an attitude, he would definitely stand up and stubbornly refute a few words, and maybe even fight.
But now he is different. He has learned to endure and hide.
For example, now, he is lying on the ground pretending to be dead.
"It's so comfortable to pretend to be dead. Xu Lecheng doesn't lie to me."
After having some experience of being beaten, Gu Beichen understood one thing, that is, when many people are being beaten at the same time, as long as you are not the first one to stand up, you will not be beaten too severely, this is forbearance.
In fact, Gu Beichen had become a level 3 fire disaster warlock in the last black tide, but he did not tell anyone about this.
It can even be said that his ability with the lower-level element of ice has never been exposed until now.
Because whether it was Bai Jing, Wang Shu, Xu Le, or Gan, they all told him in the past that a warlock must learn to hide his strength.
A warlock who reveals all his cards must be the weakest warlock.
Gu Beichen originally scoffed at this statement. His original idea had always been to defeat skill with force, violently dismantle, and flatten with energy.
It was not until he came to the Red Moon Temple, received forbidden techniques, and was beaten by others that he realized that violence could not solve all problems.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, violence can still solve the problem, but his violence is not enough, so it cannot solve the problem.
When Gu Beichen pretended to be dead, the warlock teacher said loudly again:
"Efficiency is the key to success. Without efficiency, how can you succeed or become stronger? You are all 24-25 years old. In the Red Moon Temple, this age is already half buried in the ground. If you are still so ignorant, you will only be drowned in the torrent of darkness."
Gu Beichen lay on the ground and pouted. This warlock mentor kept mentioning 24-25 all the time, as if he was very old.
He doesn't think so. He always feels that he is quite young. Last night, a good sister chatted with him for a long time.
Then he bought a box of tea from his good sister for 80 yuan.
Although 80 yuan is Gu Beichen's living expenses for a month + 5 days of training expenses, he does not regret it because he met a good sister who sells tea.
While Gu Beichen was thinking about his sister, the warlock teacher did not stop chattering:
"Did you know that Chi Xiao and Ding Ke had already become official members of the Owl when they were less than 20 years old? They were given the names of One-Eyed Owl and Whispering Owl.
Now that you are here, you should emulate such beings; they are the role models you should learn from.”
Gu Beichen curled his lips again:
"One-eyed Owl and Whispering Owl? Scarlet Sky Ding Ke? Who are they? I don't know them..."
"Gu Beichen, Rona."
"Hey? Here." Gu Beichen, who was originally immersed in his own world, quickly stood up.
Although he had all kinds of little ideas in his mind, when the teacher called him, he was still very obedient.
In Gu Beichen's mind, this is not a compromise with the world, but his own growth.
"Teacher, is there anything I can help you with?" Gu Beichen followed the warlock teacher into the office.
The teacher looked at Gu Beichen and Luo Na, took out two certificates that he had prepared long ago from his drawer, and handed them to them:
"Both of you have become level 3 warlocks, so from today on, you are members of the Red Moon Temple's external force organization, Owl."
"Forehead… "
Gu Beichen opened his mouth and wanted to say that he was a level 2 warlock, but under the teacher's gaze, he gave up the idea.
His true colors may have already been seen through by this teacher.
"Thank you, teacher."
"Gu Beichen, you have matured a lot more than before. At least compared to the initial situation, you have learned to be patient now. After becoming a level 3 warlock, you kept it to yourself for a month without saying anything. This is very good."
Is this a compliment? Do you understand the value of being the first genius of the Lighthouse
"Well, all this is thanks to the teacher's cultivation."
Gu Beichen lowered his head politely. After several months of training, he had become somewhat different from his former self.
But it is undeniable that during this time in the Red Moon Temple, his strength and mentality have made tremendous progress, and now may be the time to reap the results.
"Well, now that you have become a level 3 warlock, you are qualified to become a member of the Owl. Rona, Gu Beichen, from now on we are colleagues."
The teacher's words finally put Gu Beichen at ease, and he asked with a smile on his face:
"A teacher is always a teacher, but I still want to ask, what kind of owl am I?"
teacher:…
Rona: …
"Only the 11 strongest people in the organization will be given the title of Owl. This title will be bestowed by the Red Moon Saint himself. You are not qualified yet."
He probably won't be qualified in the future because Gu Beichen is too old. Of course, although the teacher thought so in his heart, he didn't say it out loud.
Gu Beichen didn't take it seriously, he felt that he had just started out and it was normal to overtake on a curve.
"Is that so? I understand. Then let's forge ahead in the future under the name of Owl."
teacher:…
He just thought that Gu Beichen had gained some self-awareness, but now it seems that he has made no progress at all. The title of Owl is not so easy to obtain.
"Okay, go back and have a good rest today. You will have a mission tomorrow."
"Mission?" Gu Beichen asked.
“Yes, something happened in the airship city in the south recently, and one of their councillors paid a large sum of money to the Red Moon Temple and applied for some support.
You are going to the airship city as a force support force, a total of 9 people, and someone will arrange your work and tasks after you arrive."
After hearing the teacher's explanation, Gu Beichen's expression was a little strange. Airship City
As if she saw the confusion on Gu Beichen's face, Rona pulled him aside and reminded him:
“Airship City is Zion.”
"Zion?" Gu Beichen had already reacted. Zion was a very famous city, so of course he knew it.
But the name of Airship City is indeed full of arrogance and rudeness that only the Red Moon Temple has.
It means a city that made its fortune by relying on airships. The underlying meaning is also very obvious, that Zion is a nouveau riche with no background.
Gu Beichen was sure that he had not misinterpreted his teacher's meaning. The people in the Red Moon Temple definitely thought so. In their eyes, except for the Red Moon Temple itself, every other place was garbage.
This is the arrogance of the Red Moon Temple.
"Xu Le and Mr. Gan are both in Zion. I don't know how they are doing, and Xiao Shu..."
Gu Beichen's eyes flickered slightly, but Luo Na beside him reminded him again:
"The teacher is waiting for your reply."
With Rona's reminder, Gu Beichen finally reacted:
"Oh, sorry teacher, I was distracted. I volunteered to join Owl and carry out this mission."
"Very good." After the teacher nodded, Gu Beichen also breathed a sigh of relief.
Rona's two reminders were very timely. He looked at Rona with gratitude. This girl was good in everything. She was hardworking and self-reliant. There was nothing wrong with her as a companion.
The only drawback is that it is too ugly, which is a fatal flaw.
"Alas, everyone has flaws. No one is perfect. Men like me are still a minority in the world..."
…
In the spiritual space, under the tree of souls.
Xu Le took a slow step forward and threw a punch in the posture of a warrior. He punched very slowly, and his posture was almost exactly the same as that of Ai Li when he practiced boxing.
"Ha, hey, drink!"
Xu Le's originally slow body suddenly accelerated, and golden lightning was already on his fingers. However, what he did not realize was that his lightning was mixed with a trace of almost imperceptible red.
His punch hit Yan Luo's palm accurately.
Then he was picked up by Yan Luo with one hand.
Boom! Boom!
After Xu Le was thrown down twice, he spat out a mouthful of blood, then squatted cross-legged under a tree and shut himself up.
"It's boring, it's boring. You said you were going to teach me Red Evil, but you humiliate and abuse me every day. I don't want to stay in this Soul Tree space."
Looking at Xu Le squatting under the tree and sulking, Yan Luo suddenly took a step forward, releasing his aura.
"What did you say?"
“It’s a nice day today…”
Xu Le pointed to the sky, but unfortunately there was no sky here, and then he lowered his head again.
"I think it's useless to practice like this. You beat me up and made me vomit blood every day, but you didn't teach me any mental skills or formulas. I just practiced hard like this, but I didn't make any progress at all."
"How do you know you're not making any progress?"
"Don't I know what progress I have made?" Xu Le retorted, but he was a little worried that he would be beaten by Yan Luo again, so he gave up refuting.
"I don't mean anything against you, and I didn't say I won't practice. Take a break first."
Yan Luo raised his eyebrows. In fact, he had already discovered the red evil spirit generated by Xu Le a long time ago, but Xu Le's foundation was too weak, and the weakness here was not only in physical fitness.
Xu Le's physical fitness has been very good due to his daily Mu Yue practice. Especially with the company of the dog, his nutrition is also sufficient. It can be said that he is making rapid progress.
But Yan Luo wanted Xu Le to grow more and become a warlock who was truly proficient in combat. After all, he was the man who carried Gu Yinduo's power.
That's why he didn't tell Xu Le about the current progress.
Now it seems that the pressure was too harsh and this kid's mentality is a bit broken.
It seems like it's time to give him a practical boost.
"Come and have something to eat."
"Eat?" Xu Le felt it was outrageous. This Yan Luo might have lost his mind.
But when he looked at Yan Luo's hand, he found that Yan Luo was actually reaching out for the angel fruit.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Phew!
As soon as Yan Luo's fingers touched the fruit, the black, white and red fruit immediately extended several sharp thorns, sharp enough to pierce the strange palm of a level 5 lord.
Looking at his palm pierced by the spikes, Yan Luo withdrew his hand.
Then he knelt down on the spot, prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed.
Bang bang bang!
"My Lord, please forgive my offense."
Bang bang bang!
This guy kowtowed so loudly that Xu Le just felt it was weird. However, after he finished kowtowing, Yan Luo looked at him again and winked at him.
The meaning of this look is also very clear:
"I can't do it, you do it."
Xu Le hesitated slightly. He had been unhappy with this angel fruit for a long time.
In fact, it's not just the Angel Fruit that makes him unhappy with Yama, but he can't beat him, he has no chance and nothing he can do, so he can only give up temporarily.
But last time Yan Luo said that the Angel Fruit is edible, and since then, Xu Le has been interested in this fruit.
He really wants to try it!
"Is it really edible? But I haven't cultivated the evil spirit yet."
"Maybe after I eat it, I'll get it."
Although Yan Luo's voice was quite unpleasant, this sentence was full of temptation when it reached Xu Le's ears.
He stared at the Angel Fruit in front of him.
Guyin Duo Fruit-Red Moon-Full Moon-Angel Fruit
After hesitating for a few seconds, he still stretched out his hand. Then, the Gu Yinduo Soul Tree, which had originally rejected Yan Luo, actually took the initiative to pick the angel fruit with its branches and handed it to Xu Le.
The Soul Tree will reject Yan Luo, but will not reject Xu Le. Yan Luo saw this scene and his expression was a little excited and excited.
But it soon calmed down.
"We have to try it after all." Yan Luo said.
Taking the fruit from the branch, Xu Le took a bite without hesitation.
Unlike the normal Guyinduo fruit which smells like shit, this fruit is sweet.
Then he saw the moon.
