In this cruel transformation, the personalities of the original twins were completely shattered. It was equivalent to reshaping the other virtual personalities, so Treebeard called it the previous life.
Rong Hu obviously didn't want to talk about herself, but her eyes had already stopped on the giant tree seed in Fang Linyan's hand. Her gaze was like seeing a treasure. After a while, she said,
"Where did you get this seed from? I can sense its aura from far away, and my child can even resonate with it."
Fang Linyan didn't intend to hide anything, so he said directly,
"On Lambra Island, which is about seven thousand kilometers away from here, there's a giant tree similar to yours. It's called Vander Veitch. It's also a product of a laboratory. It has the characteristics of both plants and animals. Even the seeds it leaves behind will be cruelly killed and its nutrients stolen."
"This seed was not killed by Vander Veitch immediately by coincidence. It could still grow for almost 2 weeks by relying on the animal corpses next to it. In the end, it was saved by me."
After hearing this, Rong Hu suddenly realized,
"Oh, I see, no wonder."
Fang Linyan asked curiously,
"May I ask who your child is?"
The little elf circled around and landed in the strange grid next to him. It pointed at a "bird egg" and made a chirping sound. Fang Linyan looked carefully and realized that he was wrong.
It turned out that the "bird eggs" in the grid were actually giant seeds.
However, these giant seeds seemed to be dry. Some of them even had cracks on the surface. They were dead at first glance.
Rong Hu sighed,
"Survival and reproduction are the 2 instincts of creatures, and I am no exception. However, after the transformation, although we still have the ability to reproduce seeds, the vitality contained in these seeds is very weak. "
"It can be said that after these seeds are planted, most of them can't take root and germinate. Even if they can take root and germinate occasionally, they will die quickly. It is almost impossible to grow into a towering tree."
Having said that, Rong Hu looked at the giant tree seed next to her with bright eyes,
"But it is different. The vitality inside it is surging. It can be said to be very tyrannical. More importantly, this tyrannical vitality also contains a very precious toughness. Even when it is at the end of the road, it can still grit its teeth and resist to the end."
"What's even rarer is that it can resonate with my seed! This means that the genes of the two are similar. Therefore, it is my only hope to reproduce and pass on my descendants. "
Fang Linyan frowned and muttered,
"Don't tell me you're going to sacrifice it or hurt it! I can't accept that! "
As Fang Linyan said, he scratched the giant tree seed with his finger. It surrounded Fang Linyan's finger with fine tentacles, making a strange sound. It looked very happy at first sight.
Rong Hu stared at the seed of the giant tree. His eyes were filled with warmth and even doting.
"Of course not. In fact, it's very simple to make it help my children reproduce. It only needs a very ancient technique. Humans have been using this technique for more than a thousand years. You can rest assured that it's safe."
Fang Linyan asked curiously,
"What skill?"
Rong Hu said:
"You must have heard of grafting."
Fang Linyan suddenly realized, but he still said tentatively,
"Are you sure this will work?"
At this time, in the darkness next to him, 2 more fist-sized light balls flew out. Looking carefully, there was also a medium-sized elf in the light ball, but its wings looked more like a butterfly than a dragonfly. Its appearance was quite cute, but its expression was dull.
They flew out with a large wooden plate on both sides. In the plate was a milk-like liquid.
Then they soaked the seed of the giant tree in it. It could be said that this guy was quite comfortable in it. It kept babbling and rolling around with its roots.
Rong Hu then took a seed the size of a rugby ball from the grid next to him and stroked it gently with his palm.
The outer skin of this seed was quickly peeled off, just like an onion. Layer by layer, it fell to the ground. At the core, there was a seed that looked like an almond. It was slightly greenish and was about the size of a finger. However, there were already traces of scorching at the edges.
Rong Hu stared at this seed. It was almost similar to parents looking at a weak and terminally ill child. Then he sighed slightly and placed the seed next to the seed of the giant tree.
As a result, after the seed of the giant tree felt that Rong Hu's seed came to its side, it immediately stretched out its tentacles and roots and hugged it tightly as if it had found some treasure.
Rong Hu explained:
"In fact, my child and this seed of the giant tree originally have a very deep blood connection. The relationship between them is like a biological brother and sister."
"Mister, if you can promise to help my child, to let it grow up smoothly under the protection of this giant tree, to allow my bloodline to continue, then I can agree to any request of yours. Of course, the prerequisite is that I can do it!"
This matter was just a piece of cake for Fang Linyan. He hesitated for a while and said straightforwardly,
"Okay, no problem. As for the conditions, I really don't need … By the way! "
Fang Linyan suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said,
"You know, some people on this island are used to using insects as food."
Rong Hu nodded and said,
"Yes, the island has been vigorously promoting insect food."
Fang Linyan said,
"I was fortunate to eat a kind of insect called the mutant leaf-cutting beetle before. I think it tastes very good, so I want to bring some back for my friend to try."
"And my friend has a very heavy taste. He likes to eat this kind of strange food, so if there is something similar, then I will be very satisfied."
After listening to Fang Linyan's request, Rong Hu found that this was really not too much. It was far better than the worst-case scenario he expected.
So he turned his head and glanced at the elf. The elf rolled up a leaf flute and began to play. The strange thing was that Fang Linyan couldn't hear any sound. It should be that the frequency of this leaf flute exceeded the frequency that human ears could accept.
As a result, in less than 10 minutes, Fang Linyan saw 2 little elves flying in with small bags woven with emerald leaves and branches in their hands.
Without exception, the bags were all crawling mutant leaf-cutting beetles. They looked big and fat. Some even started to fight in the bags. Fang Linyan counted and found that there were at least 20 of them. He hurriedly said that it was enough.
After a while, a few more elves hurriedly flew in and put down a basket containing a small half basket of black fruits. They looked a bit like blueberries in size and shape.
There was a little dew on it, and the skin was also translucent. It was quite crystal clear.
Then, another elf brought over a wooden box, which seemed to be filled with tea leaves.
Rong Hu pointed to the black fruit and said,
"This is a mutated fruit of a vine growing on my body, but it is mainly used to process ingredients. It will make the taste of the food have a very unique change."
"If you eat it, then your taste will become very strange in a short time. For example, sour food will be very sweet; bitter food will be very fishy, but it is very good for human health."
Fang Linyan picked it up with interest, but a prompt suddenly appeared in front of him,
"Contractor No. ZB419: Congratulations on discovering a C grade dark spice, fresh sunflower stone seed."
After receiving this prompt, Fang Linyan picked up the wooden box with expectation and smelled it. He found that this thing not only looked like tea leaves, but it also smelled like tea leaves.
As a result, Rong Hu said very seriously,
"These dried new bud moths can't be eaten directly. They can only be mixed with charcoal or fuel for barbecue, but you must be very careful because there will be people who secretly use this thing to barbecue every year, then they will die after eating it."
Fang Linyan was taken aback after hearing it,
"Isn't this tea?"
Rong Hu said,
"Of course not. In May every year, flowers will bloom on my trunk. At that time, this new bud moths will appear. They rely on sucking nectar to survive. Its life cycle is only less than 2 months, and it is very difficult to catch."
Fang Linyan picked up the box and looked at it again and again in disbelief. He still felt that this thing was tea leaves. It could only be said that the mimicry appearance of this moth was too good. The appearance was so similar even after being dried.
He hesitated for a while and said,
"Sorry, did you just say that this thing is highly poisonous?"
