·Push from Qiluo app·

()ノThe teachings of the holy scriptures delivered to you today.

Human beings who live like beasts think only of themselves.

Human beings who live like stone exist only for others.

Live like a tree, grow strong and give shade.

"My report on improving the I-type project of the element body and the split structure of the bee colony!" Dr. Cecil knocked on the table nervously, "What are you *&%￥ doing? Don't waste my precious time!"

"I'm sorry, the doctor made a small omission this morning, and the person in charge is still doing a safety assessment..." "The split structure has encountered a little difficulty, and Xiaowan said that it will be resolved before eleven o'clock at the latest!" "Warning! The Synthetic Dragon in District 5 escaped Oh, this time it was a real accident!" "I'm stupid, I said restarting this project is too radical, call the report and help!"

Every time he enters Cecil's laboratory, Maho has the illusion of walking into a vegetable market.This place is always full of busy people. The white coats who are passionate about scientific research are shouting in front of their respective workbenches, like a group of noisy worker bees.They contribute about 60% of the noise in the laboratory, and Dr. Cecil himself alone accounts for the remaining 40%.Just by looking at the way this doctor works from a distance, one can understand why her laboratory is in such a mess. She always assigns all the important scientific research tasks to her subordinates, while she devotes her energy to hair maintenance, Watching shark movies and swearing at people at the top of their lungs.

According to what Zhenfan learned, the number of times Onowell seriously planned to expel this person was as many as five times in the past three years alone.It is thanks to her innate talent that such a person has not been fired until now.

"What about the in-depth analysis report on the captured dragon samples?!" Dr. Cecil thought again.Maho walked to her desk and silently handed out the work report she was in charge of.The blond female doctor flipped through it hastily and asked, "That's all?"

"Here is the full text."

Reina Cecil tapped on the table with the paper report.

"What about the interaction experiment with the existing high-risk dragon species?" she asked, "What about the commonality test for the derivatives of the existing monarch-level dragons? What about the conjecture that the super-logic loop structure is established? You have eaten so many important things." ?!"

"It's not written in the experiment requirements."

"You don't do it until the requirements are written. You don't even write an application report." The doctor commented, "There is no enthusiasm for work. No matter how good the work without enthusiasm is, it is still coping. You just waste work in the laboratory every day. talent."

Maho thought of the biochemical [-]-headed shark that escaped a few days ago, and at that time she saw at a glance that it was Dr. Cecil's masterpiece again.She thought to herself that it's a shame that you have the face to say that others squander their talents.

As if seeing through her mind, Dr. Cecil began to talk endlessly: "You have to understand that work is to realize self-worth. Why am I staying in this crappy place? Why are these idiots working under me?"

"For salary?" Maho said.

Dr. Cecil's voice became an octave higher: "Because we all know that only here and in this position can my genius brain be used to the maximum. This is the best entertainment and self-realization! What about you? Akaguchi Maho, think about your abilities and talents, and then look at your attitude, have you ever thought about why you are here!"

"For salary." Maho said.

Dr. Cecil slammed his pen on the table, and vividly demonstrated what it means to be furious: "Go to hell! That short-sighted old woman of Booli Daddarion is more handsome than you!"

"Goodbye, Dr. Cecil." Maho nodded.She finished the work record for the day and stepped out from among the busy white coats.The scientific research lunatics who usually have a pretty good relationship with each other don't even dare to say hello when they see her, and her popularity is still the same as before.Maho doesn't want to have communication with her colleagues outside of working relationship, she thinks it is enough to live comfortably in her own small circle.

Fifteen minutes later, Maho was sitting in the coffee shop in the university, across the table was her perennial best friend.Stirring her frozen pistachio latte, Caldesia asked, "Is that stupid woman Cecil picking on you again?"

"Not exactly." Maho said, "I do lack enthusiasm for work."

Caldesia turned her head like a cat, squinted her eyes and said, "Senior sister, I think you've become less and less powerful since the incident with little Ayane. You look like Chi Zijing now, full of power." The face is full of rottenness and fishing."

"Fishing is also very good. I have saved a lot of money, which is enough for Ayane and I to spend a lifetime."

"Then why don't you just quit your job and become a freelancer?" Caldesia said enthusiastically, "I've been thinking about opening a small food store with Lian in the past two days, and you can come to me and be your personal doctor!"

This person completely forgot that he said half a year ago that he wanted to start his own business as a rich woman who drives a luxury car and hooks up with high school students.

"sounds good."

Maho was a little moved, she knew that her junior's ideas had always changed quickly, and she was seriously considering the suggestion of resignation at this time.Is it necessary to keep doing things you don't like?She could choose an easier job.In this way, she will have more time to spend with Ayane and Gongsun Ce to deal with her own life...

Stirring the hot coffee, she fell into an occasional daze.She recalled the conversation with Gongsun Ce on the rooftop that day. Her younger brother felt that only strength can provide a sense of peace of mind, and she was convinced that it was impossible to escape the battle.

But outside of fighting, it's good to live an ordinary life.

·
At the same moment, the United States of Usters.

"Wow~" Gongsun Ce said with emotion, "It can be said that the style of painting has changed dramatically!"

The Venus has just passed the dividing line between the State of Burning Snow and the State of Wooden Equipment.Not so long ago, airships were bathed in icy ashes falling from the sky, each snowflake falling with clusters of blue will-o'-the-wisps, as if navigating the furnace of sinners in the depths of hell.But at the moment 5 minutes later, everyone was flying above an endless virgin jungle.The darker green than the summer leaves spreads on the ground, and countless thick brown branches loom in the green shade, like snakes hiding in the sea of ​​trees.

The landform of the giant dragon between the two states is so distinct that it is counterintuitive, as if a god has drawn an invisible "line" on the land. One side of the line is a sea of ​​green trees, and the other side is a dark blue cold land. The forces on both sides must not cross the threshold.However, the snowflakes in the Land of Burning Snow are still burning quietly on the deck, which seems to indicate that everything is just a misunderstanding of human beings, and nature has its own rules for their operation.

"Super hot!" Qi Luo was hurriedly taking off her winter clothes.The temperature in this place is even higher than that of Colored Stone City in the wasteland, and the humidity exceeds that of the southern part of the empire.Gongsun Ce took off his coat together and asked, "Should we go to the capital of the state first?"

"Guess what's the name of the capital of the State of Wooden Equipment?" Shigure Zero asked with a smirk.

The metropolises on the Magnificent State are all named after stones, so the cities on the Wooden State are inseparable from the trees... Just by looking at her smile, you can tell that it is a big mistake to think along this kind of inertial thinking Very wrong!The key point should lie in the weird word "machinery". The urban core of this state should be "machinery"!
"Airship City." Qin Qianbai rushed to answer.

"Weeder City!" Gongsun Ce was not far behind.

Elandia was looking at the big map next to her. After feeling the expectant eyes of the two, she raised her head and said, "The correct answer is Bainiao City."

"It's so strange..." "What is this!"

The two who had failed to guess fell down on the railing, and Qi Luo asked curiously: "So, Hao Bianjing from the State of Wooden Equipment is a bird?"

"How is it possible, of course it is a plant."

Shi Yuling's palm flashed a blue light, and an extra leaf appeared.She randomly poked a few small holes on the leaf, put it near her lips, and played it like a leaf flute.The rough leaf flute couldn't make a tuneful sound at first, but after a few trial blows, the holes changed automatically.They fine-tune the size and modify the position, so the sound of the flute becomes melodious and clear, and the long rhythm can be played.

Gongsun Ce listened attentively, and caught a noise like flapping wings among the flute sounds. "Look below!" Qi Luo exclaimed.They looked down the boat together, and there was a rich emerald green rising from the forest, as if a part of the forest was delighted by the sound of the flute, and it rode the breeze straight up to the sky.The wind is pregnant with surging vitality, and every touch of green is a leaf, and thousands of natural elves are flying in the air and walking around the boat.

Shigure let go of the leaf flute, letting it blend into the green wind. "Go to Bird City." She ordered.The blades turned around upon hearing the words, and turned into a rope floating in the air, leading the airship to the depths of the forest.At this time, the sound of the flute did not stop, but continued. Gongsun Ce noticed that the leaves changed spontaneously after accepting new members, and grew into slightly different leaf flutes.So the wind blows through thousands of holes, playing a new concerto over the forest.

There were sighs on the deck.Qin Qianbai gazed at this marvelous scene, which is hard to find anywhere else, with bright eyes: "The blue wind and white leaves go with the boat, and the thousand sounds of the summer flute enter the forest."

"Miss is very popular with poetry." Gongsun Ji wrote with a pen, "I will frame it on the wall of the living room."

"Don't remember!"

Grinning, Gongsun Ce dodged his girlfriend's slap, turned and asked, "Is this the source of the name of the State of Wooden Machinery? A plant that grows independently with a special structure?"

Shigure Zero had a rare opportunity to show off his knowledge, and proudly explained to everyone: "That's right, most of the plants in this place can be cultivated into usable machines, and the locals use plants to cultivate cars, houses and spaceships." Just like the people in the Magneto State first learned how to operate and then build electromagnetism, the people in the Wood Machinery State first imitated the mechanical structure from nature, and then turned their heads to show the knowledge related to mechanical design.”

"This time it's really a miracle of nature."

They calmed down and quietly watched the green leaves.Yedi's concerto became louder and more cheerful as they marched, and a spectacle that was difficult to ignore gradually emerged in everyone's vision.It was a black columnar shadow connecting the sky and the earth, which was obscured by clouds and mist and could not be seen clearly.Just as Gongsun Ce was about to take a closer look, the Ye Dies suddenly dispersed after playing in unison.The concerto came to an end after the final forte, and the flying flutes took away the clouds and mist, fully revealing the true face of the shadow in the eyes of everyone.

That is a big tree that pierces the sky and reaches the earth!
Its canopy stands above the clouds and mist, as huge and broad as a giant's canopy; its countless branches extend in all directions, and differentiate into one after another emerald green "islands" extending from the main trunk; it is no different from a modern city. The building complex is built on the isolated island, built on the slope of the trunk, like the colorful clothes of civilization woven on the ancient trees.Countless light spots gallop among the clouds, carrying a familiar atmosphere of civilization. They are airships with different paintings. They sink into the canopy of giant trees, like thousands of birds returning to the tree lair.

Shi Yuling whistled: "Welcome to Bainiao City, the city-state on the branches of ancient trees!"

·
Gongsun Ce parked the Venus on the "Main Crown Airport" at the top of Bainiao City.He thought he would drag the long vines or ride the big ants down the tree, but there is an elevator in the airport that leads directly to all levels of the giant tree.The airport staff told him that this place has a special structure and it is easy to get lost. "You'd better find a local guide who is familiar with the terrain, buddy. People who are used to living on the ground are easily confused when they encounter vertical cities. They can't even understand the map."

"What if I could fly?" Gongsun Ce joked.

The staff member who was chatting with him was named Justo Rein, who had two shiny silver whip-shaped prosthetic bodies.He laughed straight away at this, the kind of friendly smile you get when you hear a common-sense error.

"Single-man flying vehicles make everything worse, and you don't even know which forest you're going to go to when you're looking from above."

"So I should get a tour guide?"

"If you have a lot of money, you can take a taxi and ask the driver to take you. If you want to save some money, you can find a ranger to lead the way."

Justo showed him the way, and he was busy guiding the new ship.His long whip prosthetic body autonomously manipulates the equipment in the airport while speaking, and it looks extremely convenient. Most of the staff in the airport have prosthetic bodies similar to him.

Gongsun Ce thought about it for a long time, and said: "Ladies, let's assign some work. First, we need to investigate whether there is any abnormal weather in the local area. Secondly, I received a new task yesterday, and I have to find a man named 'Booli Da. Talk to the Doctor at Darion'—anyone want to see the Doctor with me?"

No one responded enthusiastically, Qin Qianbai took the lead and walked to the other side.

"Don't you really have the heart to let me go to the white coat to negotiate alone?" Gongsun Ce said desperately, "Ailandia, you don't come either?!"

"You know I'm not good at negotiating." Dawn Knight said, "In the Knight Order, I'm usually in charge of delivering ultimatums."

"If you don't agree again, we will send the Dawn Knight to check your file, right? Damn it, I'll know it! What about you, Qiluo!"

Qi Luo just wanted to respond positively, but she understood after seeing Gongsun Ce's eyes.She threw herself on Qin Qianbai's back, and waved her hands with a smile: "Gongsun Ce remember to come and play with us after finishing work, bye~"

The girls disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving Gongsun Ce alone in the airport.He put away his exaggerated expression, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked leisurely towards the east gate of the airport.

He was very glad that the ladies understood his intentions, because the state of Wooden Machinery State was completely different from the State of Magnetism.The power of the church is relatively weak here, while the power of the traditional family is deeply rooted, almost covering the sky with one hand.This place is the base camp of the Dadalyon family among the seven original families, and the totem of the state of wood and equipment must also be in their hands.The attitude of this family is ambiguous at the moment. If they choose to be in the same camp as Gaius in the dark, it would be unwise to disperse their forces.

(You have to protect Elandia and Kira well...)
Gongsun Ce left from the east gate of the airport, walked along the guide for about 5 minutes, and found what the staff called the "Ranger Guild".This is a conspicuous building, which looks like a big red mushroom from a distance, and strangely dressed people come and go around the building.Quite a few of them were wearing sunglasses, tactical vests and trousers with many pockets. The rigorous and responsible expert Fan was completely different from a certain ranger he knew.

"I just completed a big project yesterday, and I made 3 yuan in one go." "Guard mission?" "Weeding mission, or help the company collect samples." There will definitely be a big order in two weeks..."

Gongsun Ce listened to the communication of the rangers beside him, and found that their conversation was not as cold as their attire.He walked up the steps in front of the red mushroom, wanting to go in and see if there was a traditional facility like the "task board" in rpg games in the guild.

The first floor of the guild is designed like an open bar, where rangers are in groups, chatting and farting at the table or on the sofa.A woman in a white military uniform is lying on the couch on the left hand side of the entrance. She seems to have just woken up and is stretching comfortably.The warm-toned lights slid across the skin of her chest, and the voluptuous lines stretched and contracted with the movements, as graceful as mountains in spring.

"Ha~"

She yawned, then jumped off the sofa in good spirits, oblivious to the peeps from the men.Her gaze met Gongsun Ce in mid-air, and this unexpected encounter made her "ah" in surprise.

"Hey, handsome guy." Sevis grinned, showing her fangs, "Need a guide? I'll give you a [-]% discount for the sake of acquaintances!"
