Chapter 1469 Infinite Resentment

Seeing Qu Jianlei's surprised expression, Wu Zhen didn't care about much.

"Well, I asked you about the patent, not to buy it. Under the current conditions, it's superfluous to think about these things!"

"I just want to ask you if you can help get some non-toxic meat. There is really no shortage of locust corpses in the shelter..."

At this point, his voice became low, "I have more than three or five hundred people here who want to eat their meat..."

"Many of the survivors here have witnessed their families being eaten by them, so, please..."

Wu Zhen stood up and bowed deeply, "The price is negotiable, and it can also boost morale."

Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "This kind of alien... Even if it is not poisonous, it may cause problems when eaten, but it is not yet detectable."

"I know this very well," Wu Zhen nodded slightly, "If I hadn't killed my mentor, I should have graduated from gene editing."

"This..." Qu Jianlei touched his forehead, not knowing what to say.

Finally, he sighed, "That's perfect. I don't have to find someone to do the experiment."

But then, his eyebrows raised, "But what can I get if I process the locust meat at a high price?"

"Let's get it one by one, no debts!"

"Just ask, sir," Wu Zhen said without hesitation, "As long as you dare to ask, I dare to agree!"

After a pause, he smiled helplessly, "I know you will definitely doubt it, but I really think so."

"Let's do this, to show my sincerity, I will first give a brief introduction to the characteristics of the alien race we encountered."

Qu Jianlei already knew a lot of things Wu Zhen said, but he didn't know more.

For example, those mysterious spores are essentially seeds of trees, but these seeds can only grow on the mother body.

After arriving at a place suitable for breeding, the spores quickly take root and sprout on the mother body, and gray seedlings emerge.

In the seedling stage, locusts will not devour the seedlings-this is the rule of the symbiotic system.

As for other information, the alliance has not observed for long and has not drawn more conclusions.

For example, how these seedlings leave the mother body - this requires a long time of observation.

But in any case, it is not an exaggeration to say that the seedlings are male tadpoles.

These spores are not harmful to the human body, but if you inhale too much, you will have a negative reaction, like being attacked by dark elements.

In essence, the alliance believes that the alien race that appeared this time is inclined to dark attributes.

Just like the black lines spewed out by trees, the alliance has done research and believes that they are space fluctuations with dark attributes.

This is not a hasty judgment. The alliance has been staring at this for a long time and has carefully demonstrated it.

As for space fluctuations... there are actually dark attributes? This is too normal. Everything has yin and yang.

Since there can be positive matter and antimatter, why can't there be space fluctuations with different attributes?

Moreover, these experts speculate that the power of these black lines would have been greater, but it's a pity that they came to our world.

The dark attribute of our world is not active, which has greatly reduced the power, but the black line itself is actually very scary.

Qu Jianlei feels that he has gained so much information in this charge, which is already a great profit.

It's just that the secrets about spores and black lines can't be bought with money.

He didn't know how much the alliance paid to analyze these things.

But he was sure that if he wanted to figure them out, he would definitely have to pay more than just manpower and material resources.

However, there were more surprises. Wu Zhen said that he had heard a rumor.

Whenever the aliens completely occupied a planet, a mother tree with a diameter of more than a thousand meters would appear on the planet.

And this mother tree would become the tree king, managing other trees in a unified way, and no tree could resist, similar to rank suppression.

So far, the thickest tree that Qu Jianlei had seen was only about 700 meters in diameter.

The main gun of a battalion-level ship would have to fire at least dozens of shots to explode.

And this tree with a diameter of more than a thousand meters is likely to have undergone a mutation in its life form.

At least Qu Jianlei was a little chilled when he heard it. The vast sea of ​​trees was already scary. Once there was an organization...

But at the critical moment, the soul-raising wooden bracelet on his hand snorted coldly, "It's just a Yuanying tree demon, who are you trying to scare?"

Yuanying is not bad, right? Qu Jianlei muttered to himself.

Moreover, the Nascent Soul may not be scary, but it is scary for the Nascent Soul to lead an army with similar cultivation.

Qu Jianlei is not sure about the degree of terror of the rank suppression, but at least it is better than "strict military discipline", right?

However, he did not answer Yi He, but frowned and asked, "How many mother trees like this are there in the alliance?"

"Hehe," Wu Zhen smiled mysteriously, "How many? The alliance will be in chaos."

Then his face was serious, "I don't know exactly how many there are, but... I just heard about it."

"Okay, I understand," Qu Jianlei nodded calmly, "The last question, where is Higgins?"

You invited me in, and now you want to keep me in suspense? Sorry, I won't talk about it!

It must be admitted that he has received a lot of information tonight, far exceeding his initial expectations.

But the other party's attitude did make him very dissatisfied.

You military is holding so much information and not releasing it to the public. You are already committing a crime, don't you know?

Are you still relying on the source of information to block me? Sorry, I really don't like this.

What's on the pole is never a transaction. If you get stuck, I'll go find Higgins to find out if it's okay?

"Take out the locust carcass. After taking care of it, we are leaving!"

Wu Zhen was a little stunned when he heard this. Are you really going to leave like this?

According to conscience, he is not a pure soldier, at least his mind is not that simple. The local army is... normal.

But he is not essentially a bad person, and he is acting like this now just because he has more demands.

But when he wanted to explain at this moment, seeing the strong team of eight people on the other side, he swallowed the words silently.

It's best not to do things that add fuel to the fire.

Next, someone brought in the bodies of five locusts, which were in tatters and very incomplete.

This person probably felt a little embarrassed, so he could only explain, "Sir, this...all the big ones are here."

Qu Jianlei nodded expressionlessly, but he was quite speechless in his heart. I was just doing an experiment. Do you want to have a full meal?

You may not feel comfortable eating this food!

However, he also knew that there were too many things worth studying in the locust, and every experimental subject was worth cherishing.

All I have to do is experiment with food, and I think I made the right choice!

Seriously, they provided him with people who could take risks to eat. This... in the empire, only death row prisoners can be used for experiments.

Therefore, people must know how to be content.

The cost of the first-generation solution given by Xiaohu was sky-high, but one good thing was that the solution was confirmed.

To put it bluntly - he carries all those expensive materials with him!

So he set up a small experimental room with shielding function and processed it himself.

Although Wu Zhen has left, this is his territory, and it is still very easy to know something.

In fact, without fear of saying something ugly, if he went all out and deployed all his troops, it would not be difficult to defeat these eight people.

With 40,000 people working for eight people, is there anything that can't be done? It’s nothing more than how high the cost will be.

However, those who do this are basically just brainless villains in novels. In real life, no one would do this.

Seeing the professional-grade small experimental room, Wu Zhen, as a semi-expert, really felt the other party's professionalism.

Ordinary supreme, how would you think of buying this thing?

So he sauntered over with his hands behind his back and waited outside the room.

There were seven other people from the other team outside the room, all looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Wu Zhen believed that if he wanted to force his way in at this moment, he might not even have enough three lives.

Just look at those seven pairs of indifferent eyes, and they will definitely strike without mercy at any time.

In particular, the metallic female with supreme power in argumentation should be the second person in this team.

The woman looked at him as if she were looking at a ball of air, as if he didn't exist at all.

The more this happened, the more he had to calm down, smiled at the other party and nodded, "Are you going to save Higgins?"

Jing Yuexin didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and acted as if she didn't hear him, her eyes not changing at all.

The other six people didn't react at all, and the air was filled with an aura of embarrassment.

However, Wu Zhen didn't feel embarrassed. He didn't know how long he could live, so why did he care?

After pondering for a while, he continued speaking to himself, "Maybe you don't believe it, but in fact I was also deceived."

He raised his hand and pointed outward, "I didn't even know that the migratory locusts were so difficult to deal with...otherwise they wouldn't have been able to contain the aliens for so long."

"I highly suspect that the Alliance has also figured out a way to make locust meat non-toxic...after all, you have all researched it."

He did not think that a research team composed of awakened people could surpass the research level of the alliance, nor did he think it was presumptuous.

"But they didn't tell me that locust meat can be processed to be non-toxic. I don't even know what to call this alien race."

Hearing this, Jing Yuexin finally spoke up, "Do you have a grudge against Higgins?"

"The relationship is indeed not very harmonious," Wu Zhen nodded calmly, "I don't want you to rescue him."

"Hmph," Bentley couldn't help but snort when he heard this, "You have such internal fighting, and you still have to fight with aliens?"

A trace of resentment flashed across Wu Zhen's eyes, "Without his insistence, the people of Baozhi would have been able to evacuate at least ten days in advance."

"What's the reason for his persistence? It's just to make his resume look better, but he's also a member of the local army!"

"He was only thinking about getting promoted and getting rich, and he ignored his parents and fellow villagers. He also misjudged the seriousness of the situation."

"Why would you save a guy like this?"
