Chapter 646 Let the World Tree wither?
The monster's plan is outrageous.
First of all, World Tree must first show its very strong strength.
The power to make alien invaders uneasy and fearful.
Although the current alien invaders are very dissatisfied with the sudden possession of the World Tree on the human side, they actually do not pay much attention to it.
Judging from the current form of the alien invaders, the monster speculates that it is impossible for its "father" to send out the military power at hand to encircle and suppress this world tree.
This starts with the current situation of alien invaders and their views on humans on earth.
When alien invaders invade the earth, they are just a fleet in themselves.
Although they have reproduced on the earth for thousands of years, there is indeed no progress or layout in military strength.
They just treat the earth as a mining field.
The only remaining humans on Earth have always been under their control, so they basically have no high-tech military deployment on Earth.
After all, they can already dominate the entire planet just by relying on mutant creatures all over the world, so why do they have to do extra things?
Although they were very afraid and eager for the potential of human brains during the invasion war thousands of years ago, their thoughts at this stage have been very weak.
After all, after thousands of years, the remaining humans are still firmly controlled and enslaved by them.
In this case, they no longer think that humans have the ability to cause harm to them. Some of them even wondered if they had overreacted in their momentary panic of destroying humans on Earth.
Therefore, at this stage, their attitude towards humans is one of contempt and scorn.
I think human beings can no longer afford to make any waste.
Even if humans possess a world tree, they also believe that humans cannot make any waves.
The contempt for humans on Earth over the past millennium has penetrated deep into their hearts.
The only ones who are still worried about human activities are basically those scientists who have been studying the human brain, because only they know the potential of the human brain best.
But the leader has long since disbelieved their words, because scientists in this time and space have not researched anything valuable about the human brain. The leader has long looked down on them, let alone listened to their "alarmism."
Human beings on Earth are very weak creatures with terrifying and disgusting appearances. This has been deeply ingrained in the hearts of most of them.
Xu Ying is right. Although alien invaders were indeed afraid of human development in the beginning, their current view of human beings is indeed equivalent to looking at "cockroaches".
They don't think humans can do anything great, just like humans don't think cockroaches can do anything great.
Although they have just mobilized their troops to besiege the monsters who are helping humans, that is because their current strategies are all related to monsters.
Compared to humans getting a world tree for development, what they care more about is whether this monster is on their side.
In their view, the monster comes from the future, and what it does can really threaten their status.
As for humans, they don't really care about it for the time being.
At the same time, they are currently beginning to become chaotic internally.
Currently, the forces of all alien invaders are in the hands of the monster's "father", the leader of the entire colonial group.
Because of the current relatively chaotic situation, the leaders of the alien invaders have not dispersed their forces for a long time, for fear of any accidents.
In other words, basically all of their forces are currently guarding their target - the "Scarlet Crystal".
This is a very troublesome thing for Xu Xin and others who want to destroy the "scarlet crystal" and drive the alien invaders away from the earth.
If you want to launch an attack over there, you must first lure those troops away from there.
Therefore, the monster proposed to make the World Tree stronger and more conspicuous.
It believes that humans on earth must show sufficient strength to attract the main force of alien invaders.
Likewise, they must have a certain level of strength to withstand the attacks of alien invaders.
At the same time, the elite among them, the group of explorers, will travel halfway across the planet to the other side of the earth to carry out "beheading operations"!
The target of the action is the scarlet crystal.
This is the monster's specific plan.
"Ah, stealing a home." Lou Feier said in surprise, "This plan always feels... a bit rough."
Except for Wen Guixin, everyone else among the explorers was already present.
Xu Xin had already briefly told them what the alien invaders had said before.
However, he did not reveal Wen Guixin's identity for the time being.
If she wanted to say this, she would do it herself, so he wouldn't do it for her.
However, looking at the attitude of the group of people in front of him, they should have already guessed it even if he didn't explain it.
"It's a bit rough, because this is just a preliminary plan." Xu Xin sighed and continued to have a headache.
This plan is simply to use the entire World Tree as bait.
The World Tree is now the only place where humans can survive with peace of mind. If such a decision is to be made, it is...
"Are you going to burn the boat?" Ji Chaoyang said softly.
Yes, burn the kettle.
Xu Xin nodded tiredly.
If alien invaders attack in a large scale, they will definitely not stop until they are eradicated.
If this method is adopted, it will directly escalate the contradiction to an irreconcilable level and launch a final decisive battle.
If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.
But...
Xu Xin looked out the window.
A scene of prosperity.
The survivors and the people in the underground human base live very happily here. It can be said that this world tree is already their home.
Judging from the current situation, since the alien invaders have no plans to attack them, their safest approach should be to guard their own land while developing self-protection capabilities.
Because if they did not adopt the "stealing" strategy, it would be completely impossible for them to confront the alien invaders head-on.
Except for the small hand-held weapons, the technology of their current weapons is not even as good as the human weapons of thousands of years ago.
The only high-tech weapon was the bracelet Xu Ying gave him. There were only a small number of them. If it was a head-on confrontation, it would not play a decisive role. Moreover, once Xu Ying is used, she will be erased from the world.
Do not use it unless absolutely necessary.
And the monster came this time without any weapons in its hands.
When it left that time and space, its brain was still in a state of confusion, so it was naturally impossible to have any weapons in its hands.
After coming to this world, although its brain state has stabilized, because of its identity, it is naturally impossible for alien invaders to give it high-tech weapons.
Their military force is still too weak compared to the alien invaders.
"Isn't it a little too dangerous to use this World Tree as bait?" Qi Xuefei expressed her thoughts, "This place will definitely accept more and more people in the future. Use this place as bait... The World Tree can really Hold on? ”
Ji Chaoyang looked at Xu Ying who was lying on the sofa in a daze and asked: "Xu Ying, I have a question, can the World Tree be destroyed?"
Xu Ying sat upright from the sofa and said: "They now have the ability to destroy the World Tree."
Xu Ying's words made everyone present except Xu Xin and Shi Wanyun change their expressions.
"Last time, didn't Shi Wanyun receive the kind of medicine that can be injected into the World Tree?" Xu Ying glanced at Shi Wanyun and said.
"I have the medicine here." Xu Xin took out the tube of medicine.
All of them had seen this drug before.
"Didn't you say that this medicine is useless for the mature World Tree?" Li Wenxi asked doubtfully.
"If a concentrated version of this drug is injected into the World Tree in large quantities, it will still have a certain effect." Xu Ying took the tube of drug, held it in front of her eyes and said, "The effect is, the effect is to make the plant parts of the ground part of the World Tree , quickly withered and collapsed in a short period of time.”
"What?!"
"Can the World Tree wither directly?!"
Xu Xin's eyes drooped slightly.
When he heard the monster tell them this information, his heart was in his throat, and he immediately felt that the world tree was unstable.
Fortunately...
"I have said before that the vitality of the World Tree is very tenacious. Its root system can be found within a radius of several hundred kilometers. Unless this area is completely destroyed at the same time, the World Tree cannot die."< br>
Xu Ying put the tube in front of her on the table and said to the others.
"So, this medicine still cannot kill the World Tree, because it cannot kill the vast root system of the World Tree. Its function is to prevent the World Tree from growing and recovering for a period of time after it withers."
"How long?" Zeng Tao asked curiously.
"It doesn't matter how long." Ji Chaoyang looked at the tube of potion on the table, "As long as the World Tree withers, the people living in the World Tree must be exposed to the sun."
Yes. That's what matters most.
Even if it just destroys the World Tree and grows it back again for a second, it won't work.
"Then... why didn't they do this before?" Zhao Xiaochuan asked.
"Because this kind of potion is not so easy to make." Xu Ying explained, "The potion in front of us needs to be concentrated hundreds of times, and at least hundreds of liters are needed to be injected into the trunk of the World Tree in a short time. The speed of destruction can be faster than the self-healing speed of the World Tree, causing the World Tree to wither quickly.”
"Concentrated medicine cannot be stored for a long time because of its unstable nature." Xu Xin took over the words and continued, "Although the alien invaders invented this medicine before, they had no enemies, not even imaginary enemies. , there will naturally be no such unstable substance in our hands.”
"Moreover, this substance is actually extracted from scarlet crystal. If you want to make it, you have to consume their source of life. Naturally, they will not do more experiments."
"Oh... the substances in the scarlet crystal will inhibit the destruction of the World Tree with the white crystal as its core, right?" Qin Fu said to himself.
"In short, they already have the ability to destroy the World Tree and threaten our survival." Xu Xin tapped the table with his finger and said, "Although they have no intention of attacking us yet, they still need to remain highly vigilant. .”
"Are you afraid that they will sneak over and give our World Tree an injection? That's impossible, at least we will definitely find out in advance." Lou Fei'er was very confident in the World Tree, and raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't forget the specialness of our World Tree."
The special thing about the World Tree is that the internal time flows a hundred times faster.
Observing the outside world from the internal console, everything outside seems to be at a standstill.
In this case, it is easy to observe the changes in the outside world. It is basically impossible for the other party to send people to secretly approach the World Tree and harm the World Tree.
"If a missile with a needle is fired from the opposite side, it will directly penetrate into the World Tree with a 'click', and then inject the internal medicine into the World Tree..." Qin Yunlong put forward a somewhat exaggerated idea.
Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is not impossible.
"If this is true, don't worry, the anti-missile system has been installed outside." Xu Ying lay down beside her, on Li Wenxi's lap, and said, "The preliminary layout of the inside and outside of our World Tree has been completed. But for the time being, it should be There’s no need to worry, because the other side doesn’t seem to be paying attention to us yet.”
On the other side of the earth, in the vast land, there is a room full of Xiaoqiang.
Then let them crawl away?
Is this kind of thing worth traveling halfway across the planet to eliminate bugs?
Not worth it.
This should be what the alien invaders are thinking now.
"Do they really have no intention of attacking us?" Ji Chaoyang looked at Xu Xin, "Do you already know what happened to the petrified creatures outside? They are not sent by alien invaders."
"Well, no. They came with that monster."
Xu Xin nodded.
"Huh?"
"Were those petrified creatures brought by that monster?"
Everyone in the explorers was a little surprised.
Then they all thought it made sense.
Ji Chaoyang nodded lightly: "Yes. The survivors, especially the survivors in Area 188, should be very concerned about it. After all, there are existences like us. It should have been the one responsible for the underground experiments in Area 188."
That's right.
The giant beasts in the underground world are experiments conducted by alien invaders, making a large area of the underground world full of such giant monsters.
But it was the monster who wanted to control the underground beast through petrification.
"Did it do it?" Li Wenxi said in surprise, "Why did it...ah, in order to make its own power stronger?"
"Yes." Xu Xin nodded, "After all, it has not been completely accepted by the alien invaders. For its own sake, it wants to have its own power."
Thinking about it now, Changyin was unconscious, probably because he was controlled by it by some means.
"Then those petrified biological groups, including Changyin, are coming..."
"It came to see us and take refuge with us." Xu Xin said, "Although it teleported here first, the petrified creatures are restricted by the World Tree and cannot teleport directly to the World Tree. They can only teleport to the closest location first and then walk over. .”
"So that's it..."
Everyone present probably understood the current situation.
"Then what should we do next?" Wang Lei stood up and stretched his strong body, "I have been staying in the World Tree for a while, and my body is almost rusty! It's time to move around Active! ”
"Nothing to do for now. Let's continue what we did before." Ji Chaoyang said, looking at Xu Xin at the same time, "You should think so too."
"Yes." Xu Xin nodded, "Now we are not even qualified to show our strength to attract them. What we have to do now is to develop as soon as possible. Before that, any plans to steal homes are meaningless. We at least have to Let’s protect our World Tree first!”
Fortunately, there is plenty of time in the World Tree.
Just give them a few days of outside time, and they may be able to develop well internally! A few days... it should be there, right?
