"Remember, that major general with black and white hair." Lucy gestured with her fingers outstretched.
"Catherine lived with king snakes for a while. She was very familiar with the species of king snakes. She once said that king snakes are a wonderful and dangerous species. They have the instinct to constantly adapt to the environment and evolve. In other words In theory, the king snake species can live in any environment, even in extreme environments, it may survive."
"Catherine is very interested in king snakes. She believes that the blood of king snakes can equip other creatures with the same evolutionary instincts. In this way, even ordinary life will one day evolve into advanced life in the universe. But I think that is unlikely. Unless the genes of the original life can be completely transformed into the genes of the king snake, it will be difficult to inherit the instinct of the king snake." Allen himself has absorbed the blood of the king snake, and the blood of the snake is indeed It brought him some changes, but it was far from being as exaggerated as Catherine said.
Lucy shrugged and said: "My biology is just a beginner's guide, and I can't answer such a high-level question. But as far as I know, the genes of the two species are difficult to combine or inherit, although one feasible way is to breed mixed blood. The descendants of. It’s just that, it’s not the result that Major General Catherine expected."
"I think so too, but Catherine would not think so. And I think there are many people who share the same idea with her. In addition, the alien species like the king snake on the surface is almost extinct. Discovering the existence of Bai will bring a lot of unnecessary trouble." Allen said: "So, it is the most ideal to take it to Outland."
"You say yes, white?"
White Snake nodded, seemingly understanding.
Lucy stretched out and lay on the grass and said: "You have so many secrets."
Allen laughed and said nothing.
A few days later, the public airship finally had a flight to the seventh district. Allen came to the Port of Liberty and found that there were surprisingly few visitors to the seventh district. It's no wonder that the seventh district is one of the several administrative districts that declared independence, although Freedom Gate has repeatedly emphasized that they will not let the independence movement affect normal traffic and the movement between the floating island and the surface. But the ground situation is turbulent, if not necessary, not many people are willing to go to the area controlled by the Freedom Gate at this time.
Allen performed the necessary disguise, and now he looks like a mercenary who just debuted. The two automatic pistols on the waist are a good cover, and all signs related to Beskod have been removed. In addition, he also carried a black box on his back. This long metal black box contains the heavy knife Qianjun. The metal used in the black box is the fourth-generation composite metal researched and developed by the Morsen family. The knife box made of it can withstand the weight of Qianjun. So that Allen doesn't have to go everywhere with a heavy knife.
As for the devil's praise, he naturally hid him secretly.
With Qianjun and Yuanqi in his hands, even if he ran into an ordinary Awakener, Alan would have the power to fight. Therefore, he didn't care much about this trip to the surface.
At this time, it is located in Ugalle Castle. Horn was reviewing the document, and the butler Hessing walked in. Seeing Hessing's expression was different, Horn put down his work and said, "Mr. Hessing, what's the matter?"
"We found news about the predators." Haixin said solemnly.
A strange scream suddenly sounded in the quiet study, and the doors and windows of the study shook violently. Horn slowly stood up, and the seat under him was silently shattered. Horn said word by word: "Which predator?"
Sweat beads appeared on the face of Butler Haising, and said: "It is the one that attacked the town where the lady is. According to the latest information we have obtained, the area where the predators have recently moved... Seven districts!"
"The seventh district?" Horn said: "Allen is going there now."
"Yes, master. Do you want to stop the young master?"
Horn looked at the clock on the wall and shook his head: "It's too late. I'm afraid the public airship has already set off. Let's do this, Mr. Haising. You can contact our family members near the seventh district and ask them to Assemble a team to find Allen in case of any accidents."
"I will do it now."
After Heising left, the shaking in the study stopped. Horn took off his glasses and closed his eyes and whispered, "Is this a coincidence of fate? It's just this time...Lanny, you have to look at Alan carefully and don't let him make any accidents."
It was already in the afternoon when the public airship was on the airship apron in the seventh area. After Alan got off the airship, he took out his brain and took a look. Between the gray bridge town where Peter's house is located and the apron, there is a long and curved dotted line. This dashed line passes through a large area of mountainous area, passes through a forest, and finally points to the vicinity of a valley, that is, the town of Gray Bridge.
Allen showed his pass to and from Babylon, as proof that he rented an ultra-wild car from the airport and purchased enough fuel for the round trip. The chassis of this off-road vehicle is significantly higher, and it is installed with a steel baffle like the fangs of a beast. The powerful sound of the engine shows that it is well maintained, at least its power is enough to pass through the mountains and forests.
Sitting in this rugged car, Allen's figure looked a little thin, which worried the man who filled him with gasoline. Of course, he was not worried about Allen, but the rental car. Although Allen has paid the deposit, it is not easy to get a cheap, good-performance car in this situation.
Allen naturally didn't know this. Once the fuel was finished, he started the engine. After the hot air flow from the exhaust pipe at the rear of the car, the wheels of the off-road vehicle turned vigorously, leaving the apron and drove to the empty and vast ground. Allen simply put the brain next to the steering wheel. The route displayed on the brain was filtered. This route bypassed several towns controlled by Freedom Gate in District 7 and avoided most of the trouble.
No words all the way.
Three days later, the town of Gray Bridge was in sight.
The town of Gray Bridge is located at the bottom of an unnamed valley, above the valley there are the remains of the bridge body, most of the name of Gray Bridge Town comes from this. The town is just outside the valley. The residents of the town grow crops in the valley and are completely self-sufficient. This is on the desolate surface, the town of Gray Bridge and this valley are no different from a paradise. When people are on a high **** and see the flowers and plants of different colors in the valley from a distance, Allen can understand why the Pete family chose to settle here.
However, the town of Gray Bridge today seems not to be very peaceful. Due to the low buildings, the town can almost be seen at a glance. There is a square in the town for usual gatherings, the only taller building in the square, a bell tower. There was a black flag on it, and Allen held up his binoculars to look at it. The flag was painted with an arch pattern with white paint.
That is the sign of Freedom Gate.
Allen frowned, there were soldiers on duty on the clock tower, and several groups of soldiers were walking in the square. There are about twenty soldiers stationed in the town, and it seems that the town has already let the Freedom Gate control. Allen put down the binoculars, took out Peter's necklace and looked at it, and put it back in his clothes. He drove the car to a concealed place, pulled up the tarp, and picked up a clump of grass from the neighborhood for a simple camouflage before going down the high slope.
Slap!
One hand slapped his face, and the fat trembled suddenly. This obese man like a mountain boar put a machine gun on his shoulders, used his other hand to drive away the mountain mosquitoes, and complained: "Damn it, how long will we stay in this place where birds don't shit. Take me. Say, if you just grab the food from the people in the town, you will be done. You have to deal with them in a serious manner. Doesn't it take time?"
Another man in a cowboy hat next to him was wiping his rifle, and said: "Is there any way, who makes our captain be Jean? He is a famous good gentleman."
"It must be broken here." The fat man pointed to his head and said, "Captain Jean always considers himself the savior. If he really saves the world, we won't have to engage in independent sports. "
The two men are on duty at the checkpoint outside the town. They seem to be soldiers at Freedom Gate. They murmured without a word to pass the time. Suddenly the cowboy "Huh" said, "Look, we have guests here."
A slightly weak figure appeared in their sight, looking like an adventurer on a hike. She was wearing short skirts and jeans, and her hair and face were mostly covered with a scarf, only revealing a pair of ruby-like eyes to keep out the wind and sand. He was carrying a long box behind him, and he didn't know what was in it. However, the two automatic pistols and several magazines on the traveler's belt show that he is not as weak as his appearance.
At least, he can reach Graybridge Town safely, and he must have some extraordinary skills.
"Zi?" The cowboy whispered.
The fat man smiled unkindly: "Slave, but you have to be measured. Maybe it's a tricky guy."
The cowboy blew his whistle and said: "If you have something to kick the captain, you can't do it."
"I knew you weren't a good thing." The fat man cursed with a smile, pointed the machine gun on his shoulder forward, and shouted: "The people in front stop, Gray Bridge Town is temporarily under the jurisdiction of our Freedom Gate. Such as Nothing important, no entry."
The traveler said in a very young voice: "I'm looking for someone. My uncle Peter lives in the town."
He even reported an exact address.
The fat man glanced at his companion and said, "It's okay to let you in, but you must pay the customs clearance fee. After all, we are now protecting this town."
"How much?" The traveler asked after a moment of silence.
Both soldiers laughed.
The cowboy showed his yellow teeth and arched his hat with a rifle: "It depends on how much you can get. You see, it is not easy for us to protect this town, isn't it?"
"I only have a few hundred dollars." The traveler replied after a while, seemingly embarrassed. r1058
