"The sapling of the Golden Light Tree? It's just in the form of a seed, it doesn't count as anything." Chi Xiao waved his hand, denying Xu Le's idea that he could get away with it with just a light tree.
Xu Le nodded, not discouraged. His spiritual energy surged and a fierce light burst out from his body instantly.
This is the power that the Guyinduo mother tree gave back to him, similar to the power of light casting, and also the power of the roots of the mother tree, which allowed him to abandon darkness and embrace light.
These lights are pure light, and compared to the Golden Tree of Light, they lack the sacredness of the golden glow.
It's a bit like it's been filtered through the Ancient Sound Tree.
Xu Le stretched out his palm and let the ball of light condense in his palm:
"So, does this count as light?"
"Light-forged power? This is indeed light, but the Illuminati does not recognize such a thing."
Seeing that Chi Xiao still denied it, Xu Le was not discouraged.
"Master Chi Xiao, please follow me."
Chi Xiao followed curiously, not knowing what Xu Le was going to do next.
The two walked all the way to the courtyard of the small red building, and Xu Le pressed his palms on the ground.
First, the light of light emerged, and then he mixed the light-forged power into spiritual energy and entered his palm.
Afterwards, a golden light tree grew under Xu Le's pressure, growing rapidly and madly.
It grew from a small sapling to a small tree, a medium tree, and even a big tree. By the time Chi Xiao felt something was wrong, the tree had already exceeded the height and size of an ordinary banyan tree.
"Stop, that's enough."
Xu Le was a little tired, but he still stood up, patted the tree and said:
"So does this plus this count as light? Can we get to the tower?"
Chi Xiao frowned and finally let go.
"Okay, but you still can't go to the tower."
Xu Le raised his eyebrows, pulled out Wang Shu, who was still in the tree man state, from the room, pointed at the golden tree on the ground and said:
"This, this, and this, can we get to the tower?"
"Forget it, forget it. I'm really impressed by you."
Chi Xiao waved his hand, acknowledging Xu Le's qualifications.
In fact, she was also very curious about things like the Golden Light Tree.
Not only her, the Red Moon Temple also had many doubts about the research on the Golden Light Tree at the Lighthouse.
The Lighthouse must have hidden many things from the Red Moon Temple.
For this reason, the Temple sent out Duolei as a spy and asked me to assist her.
"In two days, someone you know will come over. If your tree man friend cannot recover his human form within this period of time, I suggest you send him away."
"Someone I know?"
"Dole."
Xu Le was stunned. That newcomer from the Mother Tree Realm
The feeling she gave to Xu Le was not very strong, at least it was far less oppressive than the feeling Chi Xiao gave her. The reason why Chi Xiao gave her such a warning was that if there was no problem with her ability, then there was a problem with her identity.
Both himself and Chi Xiao have many problems in terms of abilities, but this should not be something that requires special reminders.
Then it is most likely an identity issue.
"Red Moon Temple?"
"I never said that."
…
A few days later, Wang Shu's body had returned to normal.
Everyone was doing their own thing, and Gu Beichen worked very hard on the decoration, and successfully learned Chi Xiao's dragon breath technique.
After several days of joint efforts, the dilapidated little red building has now become presentable.
Standing under the golden tree in the yard, Xu Le held Ding Ke in his arms and looked at Chi Xiao:
"Will you settle here in the future?"
“I have no fixed place to live.”
"Then why do you want to decorate this place?"
"No matter what, this is my former home."
Ding Dong!
The doorbell interrupted their conversation. Chi Xiao walked to the gate as if he had sensed something and opened the iron gate for the visitor.
"I'm here, Chi Xiao."
Duolei walked in with some gifts and a smile on her face. But when she saw Wang Shuai Li practicing martial arts under the tree, Gu Beichen breathing fire, and Xu Le holding a cat, her expression changed slightly.
"These people are..."
"They are all my friends. When they saw me coming back, they came to see me and help with the decoration."
"Um, is that so? Hello, my name is Duolei."
"Hello, Miss Dore."
Xu Le nodded to Duo Lei but did not extend his hand.
Duo Lei glanced at Xu Le. She seemed to have seen this person's voice and aura somewhere before.
Just as she was wondering, Duo Lei noticed the Golden Light Tree in the yard. This was a ready-made Golden Light Tree. Although it was not big enough, it was big enough for research.
"Chi Xiao, you actually have a golden light tree here, it's really unbelievable."
Chi Xiao blinked:
"Ah, it was given to me by my friend. He said it was a fortune tree and that planting it in the yard would bring wealth."
"This is a fortune tree given to me by a friend. Can you introduce it to me?"
"Well, that's him."
Chi Xiao pointed at Xu Le, which made Xu Le feel a headache. Why did he get involved in such a matter? He was a little confused for a moment.
Duolei looked a little surprised. She didn't expect that the young man petting the cat in front of her was actually related to the Golden Tree of Light.
I was suddenly excited. This was a great opportunity to learn more about the Golden Tree.
"What's this gentleman's name?"
"Um, my name is Xu Le."
"Xu Le? Are you... Congressman Xu Le?" As an intelligence officer, although Duo Lei is not in charge of Zion, she still has some understanding of Zion's current situation.
She had seen Xu Le's name and appearance in photos, but she didn't expect to meet him here, and he was Chi Xiao's friend.
"Yes, I'm Xu Le."
Xu Le nodded and admitted it generously.
Duolei smiled and nodded:
"I know Mr. Xu Le is a master of energy science in Zion. I didn't expect that he also has such achievements in life science research. It's amazing, really amazing. My name is Duo Lei, and I'm from the Red Moon Temple."
Xu Le felt a little puzzled. This Duo Lei... what was Chi Xiao doing in guiding her to understand himself
"Haha, Miss Duolei, you're joking. I once studied abroad in Lighthouse for a period of time. During that time, I followed Dr. Gu Jianuo to learn about the research and development of Life Attraction for a long time.
But those were all things of the past. After I went to Zion, I stopped studying this area. "
When Duo Lei heard what Xu Le said, she quickly searched for information about Gu Jianuo in her mind.
Her thinking ability was very strong, and she quickly found information about Gu Jianuo in her memory.
Gu Jianuo, Xiong Zemo's disciple, is a level 3 alchemist with outstanding talent and strong ability. He has been Xiong Zemo's capable subordinate for a long time and has been responsible for the research and development of the Life-Inducing Potion.
After recalling this memory, Duolei looked at Xu Le with a more friendly expression.
Xu Le studied life science research and development with Gu Jianuo, which means that he is likely to have a deeper understanding of the Golden Light Tree.
This is a power that can be used by her.
"I have heard of Mr. Xu Le's humility, but there is no need to be so. There are not many young people in the four city-states who are better than you."
"How dare I accept this?" Xu Le was also very polite. While he was speaking, he saw Chi Xiao's approving eyes.
Chi Xiao wanted him to have more contact with Duo Lei? Then let's take it one step at a time.
“Although I am an alchemist of the Red Moon Temple, I am very interested in Lighthouse Alchemical Life Science and the Golden Light Tree.
If Mr. Xu Le doesn't mind, could you tell me what you think of the Golden Light Tree?"
Duolei made this request as soon as they met, which made Xu Le feel even more strange.
However, he still maintained the demeanor of a scholar, and after a moment's hesitation, he began to speak slowly:
"Regarding the energy of the Golden Light Tree, I think it is a special energy between Ancient Yinduo and Red Moon. Warlock Duolei has also seen that it has a very special property, which is luminescence.
The quality of luminescence can even be called great in a sense.”
"Great?" Duolei listened to Xu Le's description and nodded slowly.
"Mr. Xu Le said it very well. I personally think so too. But what is the growth principle of the Golden Light Tree? I vaguely feel that it is a living plant. What do you think about this, Mr. Xu Le?"
This is another deep question. Xu Le is becoming more and more confused. What does Duo Lei want to do
He recalled the situation that occurred when Gu Beichen came back before. The people of the Illuminati seemed to not want the people of the Red Moon Temple to know about the Tree of Light.
Since they are both in the Red Moon camp, what is the point of hiding the truth from each other
Infighting
It doesn't look very similar.
Xu Le relied on his ethereal state to quickly think about these questions. He did not get an answer, but he did not slow down his answer:
"Ms. Duolei, have you discovered something?" Xu Le showed a tentative expression.
It looks a little gloomy and a little worried.
Xu Le's expression was just right, and Duo Lei immediately remembered the situation in the underground secret room in Area C.
Those corrupt people, the festering golden trees, and those bloody substances like mucus.
These things are really worrying. She has been studying them carefully in the past few days and the conclusions she came to are very bad.
These corrupt substances, even though they are dead, are still extremely polluting.
The conclusion of their characteristics is that they are obviously dead, but they are like living things and can survive in various abnormal environmental conditions.
"Did Xu Le also discover it? About the golden tree..." Duo Lei hesitated.
Xu Le struck while the iron was hot and said:
"I think the Golden Tree may have good intentions, but at the moment, it has taken the wrong path and made the wrong choice."
"Why do you say that?"
"According to my research, the Golden Light Tree has the special property of attracting ancient Yinduo's weirdness, and when its life force is gradually exhausted, the Golden Light Tree will enter a state of corruption."
"How weird is it to attract Gu Yin?" Duolei's eyes flickered a little. It turned out that talking to Xu Le was the right choice.
This was a situation she didn't know about, and the state of corruption that Xu Le described also corresponded to the situation in the basement.
"I also discovered the state of corruption, but I have only been studying this for a short time. Mr. Xu Le, can you tell me the specific details about the state of corruption? In more detail?"
Xu Le pondered for a while and maintained his scholarly state.
"Corruption should be a special state. It is a state where the energy of the red moon, the energy of ancient sound, and the breath of life conflict with each other..."
Xu Le talked a lot, but these were actually all research reports that Mo Chen had done before, and he just endorsed them.
However, as he spoke, Duolei's expression changed many times, and then gradually became solemn.
"A fusion of multiple energies and life?"
"Yes, I think this corruption has its roots, but I..."
Xu Le said this, shifting his gaze towards the tower, hesitant to speak.
Duolei's gaze also shifted to the tower. She also understood what Xu Le meant. The source of corruption came from the tower.
Originated from the top of the Golden Light Tree.
"What on earth is there?" Xu Le said with great emotion.
Duolei didn't say anything and thought for a while:
"Mr. Xu Le, do you really want to go up and take a look?"
"Well, I've been to the tower, but there's a parliament on top of the tower. As for places higher up... there's no road, and no chance to go there."
When talking about this, Xu Le seemed very shy.
He didn't have much hope for Duolei, but it was still worth a try.
Hearing this, Duolei smiled and nodded.
“I know Mr. Xu Le has been to the tower, but he went there as a councillor. He had no way of reaching the top of the tower, nor could he see the truth about the tower.
But I think Mr. Xu Le is very knowledgeable, so I would like to invite Mr. Xu Le to go to the tower together to understand and study the truth about the Golden Light Tree. "
Xu Le was stunned, but he was just pretending. He kept muttering in his heart:
"What is the identity of this Duo Lei?"
"Miss Duolei, are you kidding? Even if I'm a councillor and you're a member of the Red Moon Temple, you probably can't enter a forbidden place like the tower."
"Heh, Chi Xiao hasn't told you about this, right? I guess you two are childhood friends, and it's really not appropriate for you to be involved in these things, but Mr. Xu Le is too outstanding.
So... Chi Xiao, can we take Mr. Xu Le with us when we go to the tower?"
Hearing Duolei's active invitation, Xu Le looked at Chi Xiao with a puzzled expression. At this moment, he already understood what was going on.
Next, I watched Chi Xiao perform there. She said with an embarrassed look on her face:
"The situation in the tower is very complicated, and there are many things I don't understand. They no longer belong to the same system as the temple. If I take Xu Le with me, it will probably be very troublesome."
There is something about Chi Xiao's roundabout way of saving the country. Xu Le quickly said:
"If it's troublesome, forget it. I'll go back and study the matter of the golden tree rotting slowly..."
Xu Le and Chi Xiao sang in unison. Duo Lei didn't realize they were singing a double yellow. She just waved her hand at Xu Le and said:
"Well, now that we are here, we can't delay this matter. Leave Mr. Xu Le's trip to the tower to us. Don't refuse anymore. This is not for yourself, but for everyone in the Dark Ages."
"Well, I can only respectfully obey your command." Xu Le had a shy look on his face, like a boy who didn't need to be licked.
