Chapter 640 The Escaped Canary

"Yes, it was successful! Dean, we succeeded!"

Edward responded equally excitedly.

Lei Luo took a few heavy breaths, nodded sharply, licked his tongue and looked at the giant device in the center of the super laboratory, trying to calm himself down.

He seemed to suddenly think of something again.

"By the way, have the envoys left?"

"not yet!"

"Quickly, stop them quickly and add one more sentence to their letter. The content is: The third-generation energy source has been successfully tested. Due to the production limit of Radiation Capital, the third-generation energy source can only be used as a token. Lease to six other central towers in addition to the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences, the first central tower will be evaluated based on the performance of each major academy when the Cataclysm Dragon Group went out!"

After speaking, Lei Luo thought for a moment.

"Well, that's it. Don't tell them the core data of the third generation energy source for now."

"yes!"

As Lei Luo arranged a task for Edward, Edward responded excitedly and hurriedly turned around and left.

He wanted to issue this new order before the messengers set off.

"Great, great..."

Lei Luo looked down at the many staff who were operating and recording the test parameters of the source of energy below, and said to Ankarev: "Thank you for your hard work, master. Please tell all the scholars and staff involved in the engineering experiments for me that this month there will be additional They will receive ten gold coins and seven days of paid vacation, and I hope they can make more contributions to the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences and all mankind in the future."

"Hahaha, they will be very happy to know. Why don't you tell them yourself?"

Ankarev's words made Lei Luo look back slightly, and finally paused slightly and slowly shook his head.

"never mind."

Ankarev noticed something.

The smile on his face gradually disappeared and he frowned: "Are you still worried about the infamy? You just did what you should do. This is the price that the revolution must pay. So what if you don't understand? I believe that the scholars of the new era will eventually be grateful to you. of greatness.”

"Stop talking about it. Let it go if some things have passed. It's fine as it is now. Let everyone gradually forget about me as a legend of the previous generation."

After Lei Luo finished speaking, Ankarev couldn't help but feel a look of pain and regret.

"You should have stood in glory."

The person in front of me has really endured too much.

Lei Luo was about to leave when he remembered something and suddenly said: "Now that the experiment has been completed, when can the third generation energy source be officially installed? I will immediately arrange the renovation plan for the tower of the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences!"

"anytime!"

As a first-hand experimenter, Ankarev knows everything about the source of third-generation energy.

"Well, let's use July 1st, three months from now, as the Rebirth Festival celebration. At that time, all non-essential staff will have three days off, and those on duty can take turns to take a break in advance to celebrate the celebration together."

After saying that, Lei Luo turned and left.

…

In the following time, there was an undercurrent in the Glen Academy of Natural Sciences.

Almost everyone has discovered something strange to one degree or another. People have become extremely busy. At the same time, the number of visiting business travelers and envoys from other colleges has also doubled. Almost all changes are telling the residents of the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences one thing. , that means something big must happen.

in this way.

Before I knew it, two months had passed.

Under Lei Luo's order, the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences was busy preparing for the Rebirth Festival. The news that the third generation energy source had been successfully researched was finally leaked to the common people of the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences in advance, and all the residents became excited.

Land survival resources have restricted the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences for too long. People finally no longer have to face this world of sitting in a well and looking at the sky with a diameter of only more than ten kilometers all day long!

As for the eye area that the third generation energy source can support, although it is still confidential, for people living under this oppressive sky, I am afraid that it is only an increase of one or two kilometers, which can be considered qualitative. changed!

And in such an undercurrent of joyful atmosphere.

this day.

Lei Luo, who was conducting a magic experiment, was suddenly disturbed by a knock on the door.

I thought it was Bai Lan who was mischievous again, but when Lei Luo raised his head, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

The person outside the door turned out to be [Starfish Touch] Anaimo who was responsible for security work!

42. Edward, Qi Dao, Anaimo, and Ankarev are Lei Luo's five most capable assistants.

Could it be a problem with those human-faced spiders?

Anaimo and Qi Dao are respectively responsible for managing external security and internal public security issues, with slightly different focuses. Anaimo is more inclined to external issues.

Now, Anaimo is not only responsible for the Thunder Phoenix Guardian, Lei Luo has also arranged for her the Human Face Spider and the Multi-Eyed King, which is quite busy.

Since these human-faced spiders were placed in the territory of the eye of the storm, residents have frequently reported various security issues.

Of course, they are all older residents.

The new generation of residents who have comprehensively popularized academic education in the radiation wasteland environment maintains a very arrogant attitude towards these terrifying monsters. They even regard these outsiders as precious biological specimens and regard them as the dean for the future. Specially arranged.

But even so, Anaimo has become obviously haggard and tired these days, and has been complaining to Lei Luo that his body and bones are getting worse day by day.

However, the academy is in the midst of employing people, and Lei Luo’s valued friends [Power of Flame] Orn and [Fire Phoenix] Anjana still need some time to grow up, so naturally they will not let her go.

"Please come in."

With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open. [Starfish Touch] Anaimo's face looked like the bark of a dead tree. After looking around the room, he saw Lei Luo in front of the test bench.

"Dean, it said it wants to see you for something."

At this moment, Anaimo looked alert, holding a birdcage in his hand, and in the cage stood a canary quietly!

Seeing the canary, Lei Luo knew that he had misunderstood her purpose.

"Haha, you are indeed a familiar acquaintance of mine, Master Xinxin."

After hearing Lei Luo's answer, Anaimo, who was alert, finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. After opening the birdcage, the canary inside showed a humanized look of tiredness, spread its wings and jumped out of the cage. He flew out and landed on the experimental table in front of Lei Luo.

"Then I'll leave first. I still have some things to deal with."

After the old woman left, the room became quiet again, leaving only one person and one bird looking at each other.

"Hehe, your Excellency insisted on returning to the underground world regardless of hardships and dangers. He threatened to die in the underground world even if he died. Why are you back now?"

Lei Luo put down the experimental tools in his hands and said jokingly.

This canary is clearly a clone of the Painted Skin Demon.

Of course, nowadays, it is really difficult to say whether it is a clone or a real body. This strange underground creature is like a salamander, earthworm, or starfish, possessing amazing regenerative power.

When Lei Luo came to this clone, he also took the canary with him, fulfilled his promise, and secretly placed it near a passage leading to the underground world.

I just didn't expect that in less than twenty years, this guy would come back again.

"If there is a way out, who would want to really die down there?"

As he said this, the canary seemed unable to hold back, tears streaming down its eyes. This scene truly stunned Lei Luo, and the teasing smile on his face faded away.

"So, the war in the underground world is coming to an end?"

Canary did not respond, her eyes were blank, as if she was lost in memories, and she repeated over and over again with a painful look: "All are dead, all are dead, all are dead..."

Lei Luo curled his lips.

"I have verified the secret of the Holy See that you mentioned that time. That city of time and space is indeed quite terrifying. Not only did it turn defeat into victory in the war in the dark world, it even destroyed the superhuman army in one fell swoop. It is really unimaginable. However, I didn't What I think of is that you can actually live from ancient times to the present. Such a long and long life, even longer than the three true gods of the underground world, is really unbelievable."

Finally, Canary came to her senses.

It looked at Lei Luo and shook its head.

"Although there are some unique mutants in the underground world, I have never found any of my own kind. Every one or two thousand years, I can split into a clone. This is also my special way of reproduction. These clones have great potential. Weak, there are high and low achievements, but none of them can inherit the reproductive potential of my body."

Canary looked slightly regretful.

"I even had several opportunities to build my own temple, but considering that the mottled power of faith after establishing the temple will gradually pollute my will, I will be reduced to a collection of the wills of many believers. Compared with me, My life has been long enough, and I still have a lot of time to be free and happy, so I gave up one after another."

When Lei Luo heard this, he sneered.

If the real body hadn't noticed the terror of this guy, this projection of mine might still be deceived by its weak appearance.

It seems that it also put on a good show for itself in the abyss of death.

As for whether the canary in front of him is actually her true body, there are two theories. Anyway, Lei Luo still has doubts about what this guy who has lived for more than ten thousand years said, even if nine out of ten sentences are true. manner.
