The Collection of The End

——? ? ? ——

A plant world called "Lush Monster".

The new tree man's "I am Groot" shocked Sherlock for five seconds.

It wasn't until "Groot" started wandering aimlessly deep into the forest - he didn't know where deep was - that he realized what he was doing.

This time it’s an open-book exam?

Although most of these worlds to be saved have developed their own languages ​​and writings, and if you want to know the meaning, you can ask Melina to translate it, but Sherlock would not understand it if he went to see it directly.

But this time, the tree man clearly pronounced "IAmGroot" with a smooth accent and a Florida accent.

If that's all, it's not unusual for languages ​​to have an "empty ear effect" in the words of the vice-principal.

But the problem is that Sherlock really knows someone who talks like this, no, tree, that is the classmate "Groot" who lives in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts all year round.

He usually can only pronounce "I am Groot" in various tones, but "Rocket Raccoon" who is very close to him can directly understand and translate to other students.

It is said that he is the "prince" of an "empire" composed of a race of pure plants.

Unlike plants in the traditional concept, that "empire" has no fixed abode and roams the universe in a swarm of giant plant battleships, specifically attacking civilizations that adhere to vegetarianism.

And "Groot" voluntarily left home to study at Hogwarts because he did not agree with this concept - Sherlock very much doubted what he could study.

It can be seen from this that Melina's "mirror body" is real - this is nonsense, and the "Bao" she saved is the "Groot Empire" in the "real dimension", but it is not clear what her relationship is. The "time node" how long ago the mirrored "former junction" is.

Now the answer is obvious. On the "mirror body" side, Bao's sub-bodies are also awakening to self-awareness. After realizing the difficulties and crises faced by the planet, they decisively evolved. Some of Bao evolved the " With the ability to absorb "alien natural gas" and "breathing fire", he turned himself into a space battleship, carrying other ethnic groups to successfully leave the planet that was about to be destroyed. As for the compatriots who could not evolve - they were previously used as vehicles by "Big Melina" The "dead plant planet" is probably their ending.

However, according to Melina, the "mirror body" just gathered those sub-bodies and told them about the crisis that their group was about to face...

Treat them differently, right?

Although the "reference answer" is right in front of you, you still can't copy it because of the matter of "directly saving the world that is about to be destroyed." Only the "Mirror Body Lady" can do it. For unknown reasons, little Melina will definitely fail if she tries to imitate it.

So what he has to do now is to let these "Groot" who are sub-bodies find ways to work towards the "Planet Master", and then let Bao's body fight back when they are about to succeed, seizing their "future" to make the world survive.

The only problem is that this seems to be "beating yourself", and the "luxuriant monster world" may not recognize this rescue.

Anyway, let’s give it a try first.

————

Good news: it worked.

The bad news: I don’t know whose success counts.

Just like when the "Dark Sea World" was saved, the "Lush Monster World" was reduced to a "planet model" about the size of two blue balls. The plant patterns on the surface and the tiny moving "Groots" were clearly visible. visible.

It did not fly away directly like its predecessors, but suspended outside the "Desert Spire" and "ignited" its planets one by one.

Literally "igniting", on the surface of this plant planet, there are "fire vents", or "planetary engines", standing at very standard intervals.

As they ignited and started in sequence, the plant planet slowly moved and began to "revolution" around the tower.

"Are they saying 'thank you'?" Melina followed the planet closely and asked Sherlock at the same time.

"No," Sherlock replied, "They're saying...'hello' and 'goodbye'."

"Huh?" Melina expressed confusion: "But they can't see us?"

"It should be the 'intuition' of plants," Sherlock spread his hands: "I'm afraid sunflowers can't understand the meaning of 'sun', but that doesn't stop them from turning their 'face' to it, just like the ones that bloomed towards you before I came here. Same as Bao.”

"Hmm..." Melina still didn't seem to understand, but she didn't seem to want to continue asking.

This "rescue" or "seize the future" operation has gone astray from the beginning.

After Bao's children awakened as "Groot", Melina warned them that the end was approaching by dropping an increasing number of meteorites and increasing the radiation of their stars - and there were a lot of fake things mixed in during the process. disaster.

According to the experience of the "mirror body", Groot should try to evolve into a spaceship and run away at this time, and by the way take away the "planet master" status of Bao who has not yet transformed.

But not only did they not plan to run away, they also decided to take their planet with them.

The Groots, who are capable of transformation and evolution, did not evolve into spaceships. Instead, they went to places with stable geological structures on the planet to "sit down" and absorb the Bao nearby those places to transform themselves into giant "Groots" with flames rising into the sky. "Engine", trying to gradually stop the planet's rotation, break away from its original orbit, and then start heading into the universe.

The moment the "Planet Engine" starts, Bao's dominance will be replaced by "Groot", and Melina also gives them a warning as planned: as long as they swallow Groot, they will be saved from destruction. destiny.

As a result... Bao did merge with Groot, but instead of devouring it, he shared all the knowledge and resources they had with them, actively participated in the manufacturing of "planetary engines" and environmental transformation, and eventually turned the entire planet into a A "planetary spacecraft".

Just when Sherlock thought this attempt to save the "luxuriant world of monsters" had failed, it inexplicably declared success.

"No, just take the planet with you. This approach is not very unusual, but you are plants. No matter how you evolve, you still need light. How can you abandon the sun and run away?" Sherlock was confused for two seconds, and then complained angrily. .

Naturally, the "Lush Monster World" couldn't hear Sherlock's doubts. After flying around the tower a few times, it soared into the sky like its predecessors, and then stuck to the "ceiling".

"Well..." Melina looked up at the sky, not knowing whether she was explaining the current situation or explaining to Sherlock: "The Ba'ao tribe is trying to evolve a [Star Eater], which can cling to the surface of stars to absorb and store solar energy. , but it is disposable because it will be burned by the star.”

"……Fine."
