Armed Train in the Apocalypse

Chapter 773 - 444: Tree Planting_2

Pushed back a few more kilometers.

Within a ten-kilometer radius, all mutated plants over thirty meters tall had been shaved clean.

The rolling thick fog was pushed out fifty kilometers, forming a huge circle—clear inside, surrounded by a sea of fog, like a world wonder.

Nightfall could no longer hold the sky; sunlight seeped in little by little.

Shining onto the ground that hadn’t seen sunlight for a long time, the mist slightly rose and was evaporated clean by the high temperature.

Number 1 stared at this scene silently for a long time, the hill under his feet was the only surviving area within a ten-kilometer radius.

The data flow in his eyes gradually dimmed, and he frowned.

"The disparity is too great, and some data cannot be parsed?"

"But the surprise Su Huan brought is bigger than I imagined, it can no longer be used as a basis to establish a Tier Four model."

A sudden slight hum behind him interrupted his thoughts.

Number 1 turned to find Bao Qingqing fallen to the ground due to the vibration; this foolish woman survived as well.

Number 1 was somewhat surprised, hesitated for a moment, and did nothing.

Because he himself couldn’t die, killing Bao Qingqing held no meaning in this situation.

Su Huan did a little trick to his body before leaving, which could restrain most of the suicidal behaviors. Actually, he had a way to circumvent it but didn’t dare.

After witnessing the means of a Tier Four Evolver firsthand, Number 1 realized that if Su Huan spent some time, he would certainly find out his cloning laboratory. Sacrificing the entire lab for this one body was too unwise.

If no response is received after a year, the lab will create a new "Number 1".

Staying put honestly might help acquire more information about Tier Four.

"Hey, you haven’t run away yet?"

A light voice appeared behind him.

Number 1 turned back, Su Huan was sitting on the tree trunk, using a bit of energy flow as clothing.

His long hair was adorned with a Crystal Stone, his robust body bare, muscles not swollen, every inch of line filled with the beauty of power.

The other party glanced over, a touch of regret in his eyes, "If you had run away, I could have followed and stomped your clones like squashing cockroaches."

Number 1 said calmly, "Keeping me has more value actually."

Su Huan sneered, pointing with his chin to the center of the explosion, which had become a huge pit, reminiscent of a meteor fall.

"I don’t even wish to keep him, let alone you."

"Why?"

"Because he would fear."

Number 1 remained silent, he indeed wouldn’t, not having it means not having it.

"Blop!"

Su Huan patted his shoulder, "How much was your brain modified, how does it compare to a computer?"

Number 1 was stunned but still honestly said, "Better at recording, not adept at computation, even after many modifications, the nature of the human brain and computers are fundamentally different."

Su Huan revealed a strange smile, "No worries, as long as it works."

...

Xiaoya felt like she had a long dream. First, there was a very handsome brother, then somehow turned into a scary monster, eating all her things, still not satisfied, trying to eat her; later, Uncle emerged, holding her and running, running all the way.

Gradually enveloped in a feeling of safety, she slept soundly that night.

The willow branches supporting her body slowly relaxed, Xiaoya lay on the grass, overhead the little grass swayed gently in the breeze, enjoying the sunlight, quietly growing.

A satisfied smile appeared on Xiaoya’s lips.

Suddenly, she felt a bit cool on her face, unconsciously turning over, the little grass above guided her to a place with more sunlight, but before she could find a comfortable position, it turned shady again.

After several changes, Xiaoya puffed her lips and opened her eyes, a nearly perfect refined face appeared in front of her, narrow eyes, fine brows, devastatingly perfect.

Xiaoya was momentarily dazed, muttering "What a terrifying nightmare," then closed her eyes and turned her head away.

Su Huan’s face stiffened slightly, grabbed the overalls and lifted the small creature up. Xiaoya looked at her dangling feet, her little face gradually turning bitter, like a withered weed.

"You haven’t forgotten today is debt repayment day have you?"

"No..."

Hearing this answer, Su Huan was satisfied and put her down, "I am very hungry now."

Xiaoya hesitated for a moment, took out a small stick from her pocket with shallow teeth marks on it, hesitated again and put it back, lowered her head without making a sound.

Just as Su Huan thought she was going to muddle through, Xiaoya said humbly, "Sorry, I lied to you, actually I have no ability to find food, those fruits were given by Brother Zou. I can only do trivial things, can’t even chop firewood, surely can’t repay your debt..."

"If you’re really hungry, then eat me."

Xiaoya’s voice was soft, but carried a calmness beyond her age.

Anyway, Uncle is no longer here, being alive is too tiring, being eaten would erase the debt.

Witnessing the resolute Xiaoya, Su Huan was dazed for a moment, chuckled and fiddled with the little grass above her head, "Oh, eating in one go is too uneconomical, why don’t you work for me?"

Xiaoya hesitated, "But I don’t know anything, if you eat now there’s still meat, wait a few days and I might just starve thin, then it’s even less economical for you."

Su Huan made a noncommittal light click.

Xiaoya wanted to argue further, suddenly felt herself gently embraced, a warm sunshine scent reassuring her.

This was different from Uncle’s embrace, warmer, softer.

Xiaoya was instantly stunned, eyes brimming with tears.

Yu Yue gently wiped Xiaoya’s face with her fingertip, softly asked, "Xiaoya don’t be afraid, no one will eat you anymore."

But this statement didn’t calm her, instead, tears rolled down like beans.

"It’s alright, everything’s alright now."

Yu Yue held Xiaoya in her arms, softly soothing her.

Xiaoya felt the familiar warmth, whispered.

"Mama."

Two gentle words, caused Yu Yue’s body to tremble, heartaching almost to breaking point, with reddened eyes glanced at Su Huan, who averted his gaze towards the nearby willow tree.

After Yu Yue carried Xiaoya away, Su Huan spoke, eyes dark as the abyss with slight movement, "I’ll take Xiaoya."

"Thank you, she’s very good."

"Mm, I know, what about you?"

"Me?"

The tree’s voice was somewhat confused, "I might not last long either, maybe I’m already insane and haven’t realized it, why don’t you kill me?"

Su Huan sighed, one after another, making people uncomfortable.

One wants to be eaten, the other wants to be killed.

Do I really look like such a bad person?

A flick of his finger, unimaginable energy waves surged, the willow tree’s branches instantly broke, trunk slowly slid down, collapsed with a boom.

Su Huan’s figure disappeared from sight.

A moment later, a youth with bluish-white skin emerged from the corner, trembling step by step toward the willow tree, fell to his knees, forehead pressed against the root, voice filled with hatred.

"Uncle Huanzhi, I’m sorry, I was too weak to protect Xiaoya..."

...

Standing beside the Crown Pear Tree, Su Huan dug a pit, buried the tree’s heart in it under Li Han’s perplexed gaze, then kicked the Crown Pear Tree’s trunk, "Stop playing dead, get to work."

The Crown Pear Tree lazily stretched its branches like a carefree little lord, lightly swaying, pure Life Force scattered.

But far less generous than the Traveler’s Tree back then, even less than a tenth.

Looking at the unremarkable mound on the ground, Su Huan was slightly doubtful, "Why is there no change at all?"

Li Han quickly used his ability, soon a sapling broke through the soil.

In no time, it grew to three meters tall, only as thick as an egg, compared to the Traveler’s Tree it was miles apart.

"Do you need to fertilize?"

Li Han quickly said, "No need, the soil at the Crown Pear Tree’s roots is very fertile, with moisture and humidity just right."

"Oh, then continue."

Su Huan nodded.

Everyone’s Life Force foundation is different, daily consumption,

Lao San’s is not even Tier Two.
