Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 318 Shocking Discovery
"What strange place?" Everyone asked together.

Ma Zhi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I always feel that it is too easy for us to find that place. That place was originally very hidden, but when we asked around, we found clues everywhere, pointing to it bit by bit, like, like It's the same as the clues left by someone on purpose! It's just that something may have happened suddenly, causing the person who set up the situation to leave."

Xia Yongjia narrowed his eyes and said, "I also feel this way."

"So, the disappearance of Yu Mowei, Tian Xin and the others was really a trap for our Ivy League. It's just that we didn't go there because of Mu Chi's envoy, and they didn't know what happened and gave up. This layout?" Lin Rantong said slowly.

"It's possible, but this matter is over for now. If there are any hidden enemies to deal with us, let's see if we can do it." Ma Zhi said.

Day two.

"Why hasn't Liu Lan come yet?" Tang Tang couldn't help asking when she saw that everyone was gathering around the table to have breakfast, but Liu Lan was missing.

Chu Zhuzhu rubbed her sleepy eyes and said: "Tang Tang, you don't know yet, blah blah blah blah..."

When Tang Tang's uninformed people were listening with gusto, they heard a loud noise, and looked around, only to see Liu Lan running out with loose hair and red eyes, rubbing his forehead while running and saying: "Oops, I forgot there is a door!"

Everyone lowered their heads and barely held back their laughter.

Liu Lan came to the table like a gust of wind, looked at Lin Rantong, and said with bright eyes: "Rantong, guess what I found?"

As he spoke, he held up the red stone in his hand.

Lin Rantong was also inexplicably excited, and hurriedly asked: "Quickly tell me, what's the matter?"

Liu Lan glanced at everyone, took a deep breath and said, "The energy in this stone can be used!"

A moment of silence...

"You guys, why didn't you respond?" Liu Lan almost screamed.

"Ahem, well, we all guess that this stone should be useful..." Xia Yongjia said slowly.

Liu Lan blushed all of a sudden, and said almost indignantly: "What do you know, do you know how miraculous these stones are, they, they can be embedded in ordinary weapons, any ordinary person using it is like a supernatural person Same!"

"What!" Everyone's complexion changed drastically, and they asked in unison.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Liu Lan regained her mental balance, and said with a breath: "I have studied all night, and finally found that as long as this stone is embedded in a weapon in a special way, the weapon can emit supernatural powers. Whether it is used by mutants or ordinary people, as long as the energy of the stone is not exhausted, it can always attack zombies and mutant animals like a supernatural person using supernatural powers."

When everyone looked at the red stone again, their eyes were different. This, this is simply an existence against the sky. Not to mention mutants and ordinary people will go crazy for this red stone, even the supernatural beings are no exception. Think about it , the ability is consumed in battle, so the ability user will never dare to use up the ability in the body, but if there is a weapon inlaid with red stones in the hand, it is not afraid to use up the ability in the body, hold this weapon, Still able to fight.

Seeing the eyes of everyone staring at the stone getting brighter, Liu Lan continued: "Don't get excited, I have studied it. This weapon inlaid with stones is as powerful as a first-order supernatural being. Well, this color Stones that are slightly deeper are as powerful as second-order stones, but among the dozen or so stones that Rantong gave me, only one is like this."

"First order..." The excitement on Tang Tang's face faded, and he sighed in disappointment.

Ma Xiaoyan gave her a blank look and said, "That's not bad, having such a weapon on the battlefield to guard against, in case the ability runs out, it can be used to save the emergency."

"Liu Lan, how long can a stone support a weapon?" Lin Rantong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.

Liu Lan paused and said, "This, I can't research it yet, I'm only good at turning a material into something useful."

Lin Rantong frowned, staring at the mysterious red stone.

There was a long silence in the room.

"Captain, are you going to report this to the government?" Ma Zhi broke the silence.

"Do you agree?" Lin Rantong asked back.

"Sister Lin, the discovery of this kind of stone will set off a storm, right?" Ma Xiaoyan said cautiously.

"It will also change the current situation that is slowly stabilizing." Ma Zhi continued.

Xia Yongjia propped his chin and said, "Think about it, if the armies of ordinary people are armed with weapons inlaid with stones..."

"The person who holds the stone, or the government, will have the absolute right to speak. Unless all free mercenaries unite, otherwise the government, which has gradually lost its ability to restrain, will have absolute control over the people just like before the end of the world." Liu Far said.

Tao Haiyang's eyes bent: "Of course top-level supernatural users and mutants still have a lot of freedom, maybe in the future there will be two extremes, and low-level superhumans and ordinary mutants will gradually lose their current nobleness. Status, while high-level superhumans and special mutants who can evolve will have a more intense personal heroism."

Tang Tang looked at this and that, and finally sighed: "After talking for a long time, do you think it is better to tell the government, or not to tell?"

"Tang Tang, I don't think this matter can be concealed. The stone is on the mountain behind the school's back gate. It was discovered sooner or later." Liu Yu said softly.

"Uh, I understand, which means that we can't hide it anyway, so why don't we send this favor from Ivy League?" Tang Tang clapped his hands and said.

Liu Yuan suddenly said: "Actually, there is no need to worry too much about what changes will happen to us if the government seizes these stones. I think that in the future, all people's attention will be on the zombies, and they have no time to care about these internal power struggles!"

Tao Haiyang glanced at Liu Yuan and said, "That's right, the Yingtian organization controlled by the perfect zombies is a huge threat to human beings. Now Tianer is their lair, right?"

"Well, looking at their current development speed, human beings must concentrate all their energy on dealing with them. Either you die or I die. Think about how many zombies there are now, and how many human beings there are, not to mention that they can continue to pollute humans and become zombies. The appearance of the red stone may be the greatest opportunity for mankind!" Ma Zhi said.

"That is to say, if we don't let more humans use this stone for our own benefit, we will be struck by lightning." Xia Yongjia said with a smile.

"You guys can really talk around!" Tang Tang rolled his eyes.

Lin Rantong said: "And there is another strange thing, have you noticed that every time it gets dark, worse things will happen, and at the same time, human beings will get some kind of benefit, just like, like—"

"It's as if God closed a door for you and opened another window!" Mo Li said.

Lin Rantong nodded: "That's right, it seems that there is God's will in the dark. God has given human beings a lot of suffering, but they don't want human beings to be helpless. It's like the third time Yaoguang's subsidence after dark, There is a tide of dead stones, but at the same time, this magical red stone appears, so that ordinary people are no longer lambs to be slaughtered."

What Lin Rantong said is correct. Although the folk customs of the Stone Base are strong, ordinary people will actively participate in the mission to fight zombies, but they fight the most ordinary zombies. As long as they encounter a first-level zombie, there is almost no resistance ability.

As mentioned before, no matter if it is a zombie above the first rank or a mutant animal above the first rank, ordinary people can only die with a gun. The only official advice when encountering them is to run away.

When there are more and more evolved zombies and mutated animals, it can be said that ordinary people's chances of survival are getting slimmer and slimmer.It is conceivable that one day, their final destination is to hide in the base, lingering and hiding under the protection of mutants and supernatural beings.

But then again, the chance of mutants is one percent, and the chance of supernatural beings is one thousandth. The number of these special humans in the crowd is still very small. When they pay more and more attention to the improvement of their own strength , How can there be so much energy to feed so many ordinary people.

Don't say they are cruel, just think about it in another place. As time goes by, zombies and mutant animals are getting higher and higher, and when survival becomes more and more difficult, those mutants and supernatural beings may huddle together, but These ordinary people will one day be abandoned as a burden.

But now the red stone is different. As long as an ordinary person has this weapon in his hand, he can fight against low-level zombies like a low-level superhuman. Strength, courage, and determination to survive are even stronger than mutants and supernatural beings. If they hold this kind of weapon, they will definitely be qualified fighters!

"I'm going to talk about this matter now, Liu Lan, you go too." Lin Rantong said.

Liu Lan bit her lips in embarrassment. To be honest, she didn't like to deal with people from the government. If people from the government knew about her special ability, they would be in trouble from now on.

"Liu Lan, director Wu of the research institute is still very good, you can communicate, maybe you can find more uses for this stone." Lin Rantong's words successfully made Liu Lan make up his mind.

Seeing Lin Rantong and Liu Lan walking out, Ma Zhi suddenly said: "Captain, I heard that the government intends to let you be the Minister of the Freedom Mercenary Department?"

Lin Rantong turned around, looked at Ma Zhi, instantly understood what he meant, nodded and said, "I know it well." After speaking, he pushed the door open with Liu Lan and left.

Along the way, Lin Rantong thought about this matter. At the school, he thought that he could agree to this matter, so that he could justifiably use his strength to protect the children. Now that he has this red stone, it seems even more important. She is not allowed to hesitate any longer. When the government grasps this stone and turns from weak to strong, it must have sufficient strength if it is not to be controlled by others.

Lin Rantong smiled bitterly. This is Zhou Yu's beating of Huang Gai. One is willing to fight and one is willing to suffer. As a supernatural being, he knows that the appearance of this red stone will shake the status of this special group of people, but for the survival and reproduction of the entire human race Going on, we must hand in the red stone, and at the same time help the government to master the use of this stone as soon as possible.

"Captain Lin!" The guard in front of the government office building saw Lin Rantong, and immediately saluted Lin Rantong.
