Bright!

"Eat? What to eat? Do you want to order something?" Li Qingcheng didn't quite understand what Wang Man was talking about, but she also felt that Wang Man had changed a lot during this meeting.

"No, it's nothing." Wang Man shook his head, his eyes a little complicated.

The breath of light casting disappeared, and this disappearance was different from the previous seals and even destruction.

But how is this possible?

The sons of Guyinduo are immortal. They will never truly die. Even if the sons of Guyinduo die in ancient wars, they will be resurrected within a period of time.

Immortality is one of their characteristics.

But the feeling of disappearing just now is that it has really disappeared. It will no longer be possessed or revived, as if it was recycled or absorbed by some kind of force.

"Boss, pay the bill."

"Hey, are you leaving now?" Li Qingcheng didn't know what was going on with Wang Man.

They hadn't seen each other for a long time, but Wang Man was willing to ask her out. She thought the two could reconcile as before.

But now...

"Orange, don't think too much, I just have some work matters to deal with."

After saying that, Wang Man strode out of the coffee shop.

"Working matters? But your art troupe is about to be disbanded. Aren't you always on vacation..."

Li Qingcheng kept muttering, but Wang Man had already walked away.

…

On Xu Le's side, Light Cast's pheromones have been extracted.

But this huge left ventricle still has surging vitality and energy. At the speed at which the furnace is extracting it, Xu Le doesn't know how long it will take to drain it dry.

So he doesn't plan to stay here anymore.

Just as he stood up, the tree of souls trembled slightly, and abundant power emerged out of thin air.

Then the Soul Tree began to extract a part of Guyinduo's spiritual energy from Xu Le's spiritual energy pool. Xu Le didn't know what it was for.

Immersing his consciousness in the spiritual world, Xu Le discovered that a fruit on the tree of soul exuded a blazing white light.

Xu Le got closer and realized that this fruit was actually the Thunder Fruit that he had been storing before.

This fruit had previously stepped into the upper levels, and after absorbing various sacrifices and nourishments, it turned red.

But this time Xu Le used the underworld reincarnation to absorb the light cast's heart, and all the pheromones left by the light cast were engraved into the fruit by the tree of soul.

These pheromones gradually transformed into flowing curse seals and runes, which began to be imprinted on the Thunder Fruit.

The previous red aura was replaced by the power of light casting, and a brand new fruit gradually appeared in Xu Le's field of vision.

It is a white, full of light power...Thunder Fruit?

Xu Le didn't know for a while whether this thing was elemental thunder or elemental light.

[Elemental Advanced-Thunder Light]

Reaching out to grab the fruit, a clearer attribute appeared in front of Xu Le.

[Elemental Advanced-Thunder Light]

[The Thunder Fruit, which has absorbed the power of Light Forge, the son of Guinduo, contains the will of light and thunder, and it has matured. 】

"Already mature..."

When Xu Le looked at this prompt, he already understood that the growth of this fruit had reached its limit and it was time to pick it off.

"Before, I had been thinking about how long it would take for this thing to mature before it could be eaten. I didn't expect it to arrive so quickly and be so strengthened..."

Xu Le glanced at the part of the spiritual pool in front of him that had been extracted.

It sunk down to the height of two fingernails, which is an astonishing amount.

It seems that the mother tree consumed a huge amount of his spiritual energy in order to create this fruit, but it was all worth it.

"There are new fruits to eat!"

Without touching it in the spiritual space, Xu Le returned his consciousness to reality, picked the fruit with the branch of Gu Yin Duo Shi, and then extended the fruit from his seventh spine.

Light and thunder instantly filled the room, and Yama, who was still placing the soap, was stunned.

"what have you done?"

"Probably it's the power given to me by the mother tree after I recovered Guinduo's son Guangzhu."

"Recycle……"

Although Yan Luo never asked, and Xu Le never said anything, at this moment it had already guessed something, the matter of the mother tree being handed over to Xu Le.

He silently made the decision in his heart that he must help Xu Le well in the future, but there was no mercy in Yan Luo's mouth:

"Can you move away from the light bulb you are displaying? Didn't you see that I placed soap here? You are not sensible at all."

"……OK."

Xu Le had no choice but to eat the fruit directly from the branch of Gu Yin Duo Shi.

It's impossible to take this lightning fruit outside. It's too noisy, so it's best to eat it here.

"You eat another fruit? Is this really okay?"

"Fellow people can eat it." Xu Le nodded, indicating that he had no problem.

The Thunder Fruit is just a thunder fruit that contains light-forged energy. Its essence is still thunder and lightning, not the light itself, so there should be nothing wrong with it.

When the fruit entered his mouth, a nostalgic stench began to fill Xu Le's mouth.

Xu Le didn't know if the more powerful the fruit, the stronger the smell, but after eating this fruit, he really felt a little unable to hold back.

"Some people work hard, while others squat at home and secretly eat shit. Everyone is different."

Hearing the yin and yang of Yama, Xu Le wanted to punch him.

"That's enough for you. I've tolerated you for a long time."

"Huh? You want to hit me? Come on, hit me here!"

While stimulating Xu Le, Yan Luo pointed at his head, his expression a bit unbeatable, at least Xu Le thought so.

"Huh, I've always been generous."

Xu Le wiped his mouth and walked out of the core room of the furnace.

There was no way, he couldn't really fight Yama Luo. Yama Luo was so strong, even if his current strength had improved rapidly, it would still be an act of seeking death to take the initiative to attack such a fighting level 5 lord.

After walking out of Guangming Soap Factory, Xu Le came to a deserted alley.

He first clenched his fist, and a ball of white thunder began to gather in his hand.

As Guyinduo's spiritual power increased, the white lightning became more dense.

It became brighter and brighter, shining more and more, until Xu Le's palm turned into a ball of light, a real light!

Xu Le stepped on the ground with both feet. Electricity began to reverberate on his body, and then he suddenly stepped on the ground.

boom!

The commonly used cement pavement in Zion was cracked, and Xu Le's figure disappeared.

This is the first time Xu Le has experienced the feeling of flying, but the speed is too fast, the energy consumption is very huge, and it is not easy to control.

After jumping up, Xu Le didn't even know how to turn or how to fall.

From the corner of his eye, he saw a few birds, then dense clouds, and then endless darkness...

"Is this void?"

Xu Le's body gradually stopped, and the power of the world was attracting him back.

He didn't stay long before he began to fall downwards, and he fell extremely fast.

In mid-air, Xu Le couldn't find the rhythm of using lightning just now. The strong wind pressure made him open his mouth and cursed a lot.

"grass%!"

However, in the process of falling, Xu Le gradually found his body's balance.

He gathered lightning again, and his body once again transformed from lightning into light.

boom!

A burst of thunder appeared, and Xu Le's figure disappeared into the sky.

"Is it thundering? Is it going to rain?" A passerby looked at the sky in confusion.

Although there were indeed many clouds in the sky, the sky was still very bright and there was no sign of rain.

But not far from this man, Wang Man was looking at the sky in confusion.

"This feeling……"

…

On the other side, in Old Moen's manor, a bolt of lightning fell out of thin air.

boom!

Someone fell heavily into the pool.

"what sound?"

"Over there by the pool."

"Is it a bomb attack? It hurts my ears."

"I don't know. Let's go over and have a look."

The law enforcers and guards immediately pointed their guns at the pool. They were all worried that someone might launch a terrorist attack or assassination on Old Moen.

Although Lao Moen has made it clear that he will abdicate and his health is not good.

But after all, he is the richest man in Zion, and he is still a member of the parliament. If something happens to him at this time, the whole of Zion will be in turmoil.

Xu Le staggered out of the pool.

Seeing everyone raising their guns at him, he also said hello a little embarrassed:

"Sorry, I am Xu Le. I came here at the invitation of Mr. Moen. Some experimental accidents occurred during the journey, which is why there was such a big commotion.

You don’t have to worry too much about this. When I become more proficient in it, this situation shouldn’t happen again. "

Because of his elemental body, Xu Le was not injured from the fall.

However, his control of the lightning ability is indeed too rough, just like contacting the lower element electricity for the first time. I am afraid it will take a period of practice before he can master this new ability, even the ability to fly stably.

Several guards glanced at Xu Le and found that he looked familiar, but his identity was still suspicious.

"Dr. Xu Le... please wait a moment, we need to report to our superiors."

"No problem, I understand."

As soon as Xu Le said this, Li Wen's voice came from the second floor in the distance:

"No need to report, he is indeed Xu Le, let him come over."

With Li Wen's words, these guards naturally didn't need to say more:

"Yes, Lord Li Wen."

Xu Le did not go to see Li Wen and Moen immediately. Instead, he took a bath and changed his clothes.

He originally thought he would go to the office to discuss matters, but the guard who followed him discovered that the place they went to was not an office.

It was a place like a ward, Old Moen's private ward.

A large number of medicines and equipment are piled here, and several doctors and nurses are busy.

Xu Le could tell from the fluctuating mental energy on their bodies and the expressions on their faces that Old Moen's physical condition was probably not very optimistic.

"Where's Mr. Moen?"

"I'll wait for you inside. Please come in, Dr. Xu Le."

Xu Le nodded to these people and then opened the door.

Old Moen was lying on the hospital bed taking an IV drip, leaning on the hospital bed and puffing away smoke with Li Wen beside him.

Well, one of them is a non-smoker and the other has quit smoking. That’s really nice to say.

But Xu Le felt that the cigarettes in their hands never stopped.

"Here you come? Sit down."

Old Moen pointed to the chair next to him and motioned for Xu Le to sit down. Xu Le was not polite and walked over and sat down on the chair.

Looking at old Moen, he found that the old man was in good spirits.

His face was rosy and he looked in good condition. He didn't look like he was dying at all.

"Mr. Moen looks good."

"Huh, that's necessary. If I weren't old, having 2-3 women in one night wouldn't be a problem."

Xu Le's mouth twitched, this old man can't play with women, isn't it because he's broken?

"Uncle Li, Mr. Moen, why did you call me here?"

After asking this question, Moen glanced at Li Wen, but Li Wen had no expression at all, making it unclear what he was thinking.

"The personal promotion about you has been very popular before, and the people of Zion have talked a lot about you. However, I also followed Li Wen's advice and did not let you over-market and make yourself public."

"Yes, I personally think that there is no need for a scientific researcher to carry out excessive marketing, let the public know, and then maintain a sufficient sense of mystery."

Moen nodded.

"Many people now know about Guyinduo's technological weapons. I'm afraid Guyinduo's energy core will be publicized without promotion.

But the question now is, how much energy reserve do you have? After such a long period of accumulation, if it can only last for one Kuroshio War, then this research will become meaningless. "

Xu Le narrowed his eyes. Is Old Moen trying to find out how much he has in stock?

He glanced at Li Wen. Li Wen was still the same, smoking and not talking, pretending to be serious.

At this time, it was more or less too much for him to leave Old Moen to Xu Le to deal with it alone.

Fortunately, Xu Le had already prepared. He really needed to strictly control the output of the furnace.

"Kuroshio's one-night profit is about 930 bars of soap."

"930?" Old Moen's expression changed slightly.

Xu Le thought he felt it was less, and wondered if he should repay more.

After all, if he wants to implement his plan, in addition to the daily energy supply for the entire Zion, he must also support the research and development work of Zion's progressives, as well as huge consumption of weapons like space-based cannons.

Although it is possible to optimize space-based cannons, such optimization generally means a 20-30% reduction in energy consumption.

Therefore, the output and supply of the furnace is still very urgent.

"Yes, 930 yuan." Xu Le repeated, deciding to observe Old Moen's attitude again.

"I didn't expect there were so many." Old Moen said with emotion.

The old man paused for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Xu Le:

"You're not making a false report, are you? This kind of thing is related to the development of Zion and is not a joke."

"Uh... no, absolutely impossible."

Xu Le glanced at Li Wen guiltily. Sure enough, this unloyal guy had already lowered his head.

However, the always shrewd old Moen did not notice the change in the demeanor of the two men.

It's not that he's not smart enough, it's that he really can't see clearly.

Xu Le suddenly discovered that Old Moen's eyes had become very cloudy and even seemed to have lost some of their luster.

"Is the end approaching..."

Moen took two more puffs of cigarette, and then said slowly:

"Xu Le, I know you have some crazy plans, and I don't have the ability to stop you from doing those plans anymore. I'm going to die."

"Mr. Moen, actually..."

"Nothing is untrue. Everyone has to die. In order to taste the prosperity and bitterness of the world, ranging from philosophical thoughts to as small as three soups in the family, experience the process of getting up again and again in the midst of hardships and despair, and realize one's own destiny. Small, realize that instead of getting involved with them, it is better to put aside the world's prejudice against technology and step out of oneself. This is the path of Zion.

My life is already wonderful, and now it’s up to you. "

Xu Le glanced at Li Wen, and after pondering for a few seconds, he decided to take out the longevity fruit that he had already prepared.

"Mr. Moen, here is a longevity fruit that I prepared before. If you don't mind, I can..."

"Hahahaha!" Old Moen laughed, and his laughter even attracted the attention of the guards and doctors outside the door.

However, this laughter also aroused doubts in Xu Le himself:

"What are you laughing at, Mr. Moen?"

"It's nothing, I just think that with young people like you in Zion, it won't be bad next time."

Xu Le frowned slightly, because Moen still had no intention of taking the fruit, and he didn't understand at this time.

Your vitality is almost at its end, so why refuse?

Die generously? This makes no sense, and Moen is not that kind of person.

"Isn't Mr. Morn going to have this?"

"This thing is no longer useful to me. Thank you for your kindness. Boy, it is easy to be sad when you get older and it is easy to recall things from the past.

Therefore, I have become a remnant of the old era. There is no ship that can carry me in the new era. I have no regrets in being able to see the rise of Zion technology.

After my death, I will donate 99% of my property, including the technology, art, and weapons and equipment I collected in the past. "

"What about your children?"

"1% of the money is enough for them. Without me, excessive wealth will only bring death to them."

Xu Le was startled. He wanted to say something about how he could protect the Moen family, but he looked at Li Wen. Even Li Wen didn't speak at this time, so he stopped trying.

"I understand, thank you Mr. Moen for your generosity."

"Develop well. Although Zion will probably attract the attention of the Red Moon Temple after this incident, those people in the Red Moon Temple are very arrogant and they will not understand the significance of energy.

Even if someone can understand, those who understand cannot reach the high position of the Red Moon Temple.

The next few months will be the time for us to work hard.

Just get ready..."

Xu Le was stunned:

"Me? Do you mean becoming a member of parliament?"

"No, becoming a member of Parliament is already a certainty for you. In the next few days, as long as you don't be too stupid, you will cause a big earth-shattering scandal that we can't cover up. It's almost impossible to get out of it. What an accident.

So what you have to do is to take a longer-term view and prepare for what happens after you become a member of Parliament. "

"What happens after becoming a member?" Xu Le doesn't know what he will do after becoming a member. Isn't he starting to implement his own policies?

When Xu Le was confused, Moen glanced at Li Wen and motioned Li Wen to explain to Xu Le what to do next.

"Every time the parliamentary system changes, the new parliamentarians must conduct a joint city-state friendly visit. While showing our own strength in Zion, we must also conduct certain diplomatic, political, or military cooperation with the outside world.

Of course, these requirements are just for show, you can just get them done. "

A friendly visit from the United City-States?

When he heard this, the corners of Xu Le's mouth began to twitch...

Political exchange? Military alliance? Are you still showing off? Is this something that a hardcore bastard like him can understand?

"But I'm just an ordinary researcher? How can a researcher know these things?"

"Okay, then don't be a member of Parliament."

Seeing Li Wen's straightforward attitude, Xu Le's expression instantly dropped.

"Okay, but there is such a thing as a friendly visit, but there are three city-states? How to choose then? Where should I go?"

"When three new members take office, they will naturally go to a city-state each. As for which city-state you want to go to, you need to discuss it with the other two new members after you become a member."

Hearing Li Wen's words, Xu Le nodded.

If this is the case, which city should he choose to go to?

lighthouse? To settle his unfinished grudges?

Tianrui Lifeng? It was a martial city with very special customs, customs, and political system.

Red Moon Temple? The true deep blue core, the strongest place in the world.

I seem to have reasons to go to these three places. If I really want to go, I really need to think carefully...

"I understand. As a member of the Zion Council, it is our duty to restore the glory of Zion."

Hearing what Xu Le said, Old Moen also smiled:

"Hehehe, young people are energetic. Okay, that's about it. Oh, by the way, Li Wen.

Go back and help my useless grandchildren, arrange some less important tasks, find something for them to do, and prevent them from getting into trouble.

They have no brains, so protect them. "

Moen's words seemed a bit like expressing his last words, but more than that, in fact, when he was talking to Xu Le just now, he also meant to express regrets.

It's just that he entrusted the future development of Zion to Xu Le, and entrusted the matters concerning his children to Li Wen.

"Well, don't worry, I will arrange their affairs."

"Okay, old man, I'm going to bed. Boy, help me put the disc on."

Xu Le glanced at the projection disc next to the bed...

The turtle is actually yellow!

In this day and age, is there such a thing? But probably only rich people like Moen can afford it.

Compared with the previous life, it was better than the previous life. I am grateful to the country where I lived a good life in my childhood and provided us with so many high-quality discs.

"Okay, let's go." Li Wen said.

"good."

…

After leaving the room, Xu Le couldn't help but ask:

"Uncle Li, why doesn't Mr. Moen want longevity fruit? This thing can stably extend..."

Before Xu Le finished speaking, Li Wen actually took out a fruit from his pocket.

Surprisingly, just like the fruit in Xu Le's hand, it also brings longevity.

"It turns out that Uncle Li also prepared longevity fruit."

Li Wen nodded, and it was obvious that he was in a gloomy mood:

"I'm not very clear about the principle of longevity fruit, but according to Moen himself, after eating enough life fruit, the effect will become worse and worse.

He is neither a warrior nor a warlock, and the essence of his life has not changed, so... Old Moen has run out of gas. "
