"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 continuously adapt to the environment and evolve. In other words, theoretically 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 give other creatures 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 had absorbed the blood of the king snake, and the snake blood did bring him. Some changes have come, but they are not as exaggerated as Catherine said.
Lucy shrugged and said: "My biology is just a beginner's guide, and I can't answer such advanced questions. 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 offspring. It’s just that, it’s not the result Major General Catherine expected."
"I think so too, but Catherine doesn't 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, once it is found white Existence will bring a lot of unnecessary troubles." Allen said: "So, it is ideal to take it to Outland."
"You say yes, white?"
White Snake nodded seemingly understanding.
Lucy stretched and lay on the grass and said, "You have so many secrets."
Allen laughed and said nothing.
After a few days, the public airship finally had a flight to the seventh area. 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 declared administrative districts, although Freedom Gate has repeatedly emphasized that they will not let the movement affect the 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 the signs related to Beskode have been removed. In addition, he also carried a black box. 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 Alan doesn't have to carry a heavy knife everywhere.
As for the devil's praise, he naturally hid him secretly.
With Qianjun and the source weapon in his hands, even if he ran into an ordinary Awakener, Alan had the power to fight. Therefore, he didn't care much about this trip to the surface.
At this time, it is located in Ugalle Fort. Horn was reviewing the documents, and the butler Hessing walked in. Seeing Hessing's expression was different, Horn put down his work and said, "Mr. Hessing, what happened?"
"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?"
Butler Haising sweated on his face and said, "It's the one that attacked the town where the young lady is. According to the latest information we got, the area where the predators have recently moved... is in District 7. !"
"The seventh district?" Horn said: "Allen is going there right 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 go, Mr. Heising. You can contact our family members near the seventh district and let them form a team. The team goes to Allen in case of any accident."
"I will do it at once."
After Haixin left, the shaking in the study stopped. Horn took off his glasses and closed his eyes and whispered softly, "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 surprises."
It was already 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. There is a long and curved dotted line between the gray bridge town where Peter's house is located and the apron. This dotted line passes through a large mountain area, passes through a forest, and finally points to the vicinity of a valley, which is the town of Gray Bridge.
Allen showed his pass to and from Babylon, as proof that he rented a super-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 engine sound 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 under the current situation.
Allen naturally wouldn't know this, and once the refueling was complete, he started the engine. After the hot air flow from the tail exhaust pipe, 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 the towns controlled by the Freedom Gate in District 7 and avoided most of the trouble.
No words all the way.
After three days, 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, and the residents of the town grow crops in the valley and are completely self-sufficient. This is on the desolate surface, and the town of Gray Bridge and this valley are like a paradise. When people are on the high slopes 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 Huiqiao today does not seem 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. Allen raised his binoculars and looked 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 guard on the clock tower, and a group of soldiers on the square were walking. There are about twenty soldiers stationed in the town, and it seems that the town has already let 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 hidden place, pulled up the tarpaulin, and picked up a clump of grass from the neighborhood for a simple camouflage before going down the high slope.
Snapped!
A hand was slapped on his face, and the fat suddenly trembled. This obese man like a mountain boar put a machine gun on his shoulder, 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, it will be over. You have to deal with them seriously. Doesn't it take time?"
Another man with 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 well-known good husband."
"It must be broken here." The fat man pointed to his head and said, "Captain Gene always considers himself the savior. If he can really save the world, we won't have to do any sports."
The two men were on duty at the checkpoint outside the town, and seemed to be soldiers at the gate of freedom. They murmured without a word to pass the time. Suddenly the cowboy said, "Look, we have guests here."
A slightly weak figure appeared in their sight, looking like an adventurer on foot. She was wearing a short skirt and jeans, and her hair and face were mostly covered with a scarf. Only a pair of ruby-like eyes were exposed 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, on the traveler's belt, two automatic pistols and several magazines show that he is not as weak as his appearance.
At least, he can safely reach Gray Bridge Town, and he must have some extraordinary skills.
"Zai?" the cowboy whispered.
The fat man smiled ill-intentionally: "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 scolded with a smile~EbookFREE.me~ pointed the machine gun on his shoulder forward, and shouted: "The people in front stop, Huiqiao Town is temporarily affected by our freedom gate. Jurisdiction. If there is no important business, no entry is allowed."
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 the 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's 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.
