Chapter 344: Human Face Fruit
Are you kidding me?
There were hundreds of wounded people in need of first aid gathered in the church, and there were more than twenty raging lunatics locked in the room.
All the professional nurses were too busy to stop. Even Miss Valente had rushed to the front line and was injured. At this time, it didn't matter if someone wanted to cause trouble, but they actually had to clear the place.
"Go tell that big shot that he is not welcome here." The old woman sneered, her weak body not showing off her anger. The man in clothes yelled, "I don't care what kind of big shot he is, or else he can come in like an ordinary civilian and he won't be given any special treatment here. Otherwise, get out of here."
Domineering old lady .
Lynch was unhappy because of Miss Valente's incident, but he couldn't blame her. He had already been angry when he heard that the place was to be cleared. At this time, he heard Ms. Nightingale retort. If the surrounding environment was not suitable, Lynch would have almost Applause on the spot.
The men in black retreated angrily, and the old woman smiled apologetically at Officer Lynch and Natalie: "I'm sorry for letting you see something unpleasant."
< br>"There are so many pleasant things in life. Don't be afraid of unpleasant things. Just make it pleasant, just like you just did." Lynch gave the old woman a thumbs up, "But those The people should just be guards, and the big shots who want to clear the place may come to cause trouble.”
"Oh, don't worry about it. They don't matter, but they will probably be unable to get away after a while. I wanted to show you the progress."
Lin Qi was startled, remembering the old woman at the door just now. attitude, and nodded thoughtfully: "Did you encounter any problems?"
"You still noticed it, child." The old woman smiled awkwardly, apologetically. Said, "You thought you took a lot of risks for this matter and did a lot of work that you shouldn't have done. Now I ask you to help for free. I'm really embarrassed."
"Did you do a lot? And it was paid. The host almost killed me last time. Isn't this compensation? If I don't help this time, she won't be merciful next time. In the end, I won't be the unlucky one. "
"Huh?"
"Nothing, just kidding. I really don't mind helping with this matter, and I do have a responsibility."
Lin Qi actually admired this group of believers who took the world's ills as their own responsibility. They really dared to sacrifice themselves when faced with danger. Lin Qi thought he couldn't do what they did, but he didn't mind doing more for them.
Maybe I can't be noble, but I can at least not be twisted.
"I won't explain the specific research and development process. It's too complicated. I don't think you are interested in really understanding it, so I will just tell you the problem." The old woman sighed and said apologetically, " In the process of developing drugs, a mysterious plant called the Human Face Fruit is needed. It is a plant that lived in the Tertiary Age, but it is difficult to find it now. We have seeds, but it is also difficult to cultivate it artificially. ”
"Why?"
"The environment is different. The third era is the dark age. The concentration of free mysterious filth will be much higher, which will greatly benefit mysterious creatures, so the human face fruit can grow. But in the fifth era Ji, because the concentration of contamination under the protection of gods has been significantly reduced, it is difficult to find an environment for cultivation."
"What about artificially created environments?"
"We tried, but even if we artificially made the strange objects go out of control and increased the concentration of pollution in the coverage area, we still failed. The natural situation is still different from the artificial one. I think only the dreamland has the possibility of cultivating them. "
Lin Qimao was furious: "You don't want me to go to Dreamland to pick a few and bring them back."
In his opinion, it was like someone from his hometown came to take pictures. You said over your shoulder, man, would you like to take a walk in hell? It’s like nonsense.
‘Neighbor, neighbor, can I go to Dreamland now? ’
[Yes. 】
‘Huh? Am I so strong? ’
[But I will definitely not come back. 】
‘You’re a bad student, really. '
While he was criticizing his neighbor, the old woman was looking at him with an almost admiring look for a few seconds, and then pointed at Lynch to Officer Natalie: "He Have you always dared to think so? ”
"No, it's quite normal most of the time. It's probably a phase." "Ahem, how could I really think that? It's just a joke." Lin Qi smiled awkwardly, "Continue, I won't interrupt."
"We did a lot of tests and finally found a feasible method," the old woman said with her head lowered, "There is no one in the outside world. It’s not the environment in which the fruit lives, but there are some rare things in it.”
Lynch was surprised and finally understood Ms. Nightingale's thinking.
Artificially making the strange objects of the Third Age go out of control, and then entering the memories of the strange objects, there must be a human face fruit there, but... I can't bring it out.
“It is true that the fruit of human face in memories cannot be brought out, but things from the outside can be brought in. If the seeds are brought in and cultivated, the grown fruits still belong to this world, just like what we brought in The things are the same and can come out with us.”
Hiss, a road never imagined.
Lin Qi was a little stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but reflect on himself. It seems that I'm not the only one with imagination. The imagination of other professionals is no worse than mine.
Officer Natalie, who was listening in, raised her eyebrows and asked for Lynch: "But, it takes a long time to cultivate. Is it really too late?"
"The Human Face Fruit only takes forty-eight hours from sowing to maturity. We have tested it and it is feasible, but it is more dangerous inside."
Lin Qi asked in confusion: "Why is it dangerous to use memories? Although the strange objects themselves are dangerous, the memories are not necessarily dangerous.”
The old woman smiled bitterly with a strange expression: “My child, there are no strange objects that are not dangerous in memories. The memory of a strange object is very dangerous. Don’t forget that all strange objects are born out of the fear of living beings, and the memory of strange objects is the process of reappearance. If it is not dangerous enough, it cannot cause the fear of living beings.”
It's true.
Lin Qi also sighed and asked: "Wait, since it has been tested and it works, it means it has been cultivated, then why do you need me?"
"Because they cultivated it The fruit cannot be used.”
Ms. Nightingale waved to the side, and someone was already coming with a box. Nightingale opened the box and found a purple fruit inside. The facial features were still there and the brows were clear. Apart from the size, there was almost no difference between it and a normal human head.
“This is the fruit cultivated by that person, but it is meaningless. We need this fruit to conceptually continue your own existence, but this can only symbolize the person who cultivated it and cannot continue your existence. Concept."
"That's it. The appearance of the fruit is the same as the cultivator, so I need to go in and cultivate the fruit myself for forty-eight hours, and then suppress the memory of the strange object and bring the fruit out."
Ms. Nightingale blushed, lowered her head and whispered: "Sorry, the first two testers failed to suppress the out-of-control strange objects. They survived the most dangerous moment in their memories. Waiting for the memories You'll leave naturally after it's over. I don't guarantee that you can successfully suppress the strange objects after entering. It's best to be prepared to leave naturally." Lin Qi looked at the police officer and noticed. The other party was also looking at him, obviously thinking of the same thing, "I don't mind, I have had similar experiences before, and I am willing to try it. How to do it specifically?"
"Huh, thank you, kid. ." The old woman was relieved, "It will definitely not work today, tomorrow..."
"I promised the Duke to attend his ball on the 30th. It's best to stagger this day."
"Then it will be the first of next month. I will teach you how to cultivate the Human Face Fruit in these few days. I also want to explain to you what’s going on inside. So you’d better come here and listen to the class every day.”
Huh? Come every day?
Officer Natalie raised her eyebrows, looked at Lynch, and glanced at the busy figure on the other side.
I wonder if it was a coincidence, but the other figure paused and his eyes drifted over.
Ahem, why do I feel so cold suddenly.
Unfortunately, before he could figure out the source of the air-conditioning, there was a sound of people outside the church, and several men in black came over protecting two gorgeously dressed people.
