Chapter 500: Beehive and Outer Garden

"Sir, is there any problem?"

Looking at the young dragon sleeping peacefully on the screen, the researchers seemed to finally realize the existence of the military chief.

Both the situation when the dragonlet appeared and after it was caught were not normal.

Could it be a trap? Or is there something wrong with this creature?

The middle-aged woman who was the leader just looked at them calmly and asked, "If there is a problem, don't you want to study it?"

Everyone shook their heads.

In any case, this is a genuine unknown creature, highly suspected to be a dragon that was thought to be extinct.

No matter what conspiracy issues there are, no one will give up this tempting opportunity.

"Study it carefully." The woman retracted her gaze and looked at the man beside her. "Percy, I'll leave this group of people to you to lead."

"Three... no, within one month, you must complete the analysis of this creature's bloodline and magic power, and submit to me a feasible method to utilize it."

"At the same time, we must make sure it is alive and well. If we can raise it..." She paused slightly, "it should be able to become a fighting force for our hive."

"You have to make sure it's under our control."

Hearing the demands one after another, Pelliot had a bitter expression on his face, like a designer meeting an unreasonable client.

"This...Excuse me, I can't guarantee it."

The woman seemed not to have heard him and ordered her men, "Guard this place well. Do not let the target escape, and do not let anyone other than the military get close to this place."

When Percy saw her like this, he knew there was no room for negotiation.

Before she left, he hesitated and asked another question:

"Sir, why did you let me... me lead this research team?"

The woman paused and said without looking back,

"We have cooperated with you many times. The research institute looks down on you, but I think you can handle this task."

"What those people in the research institute can't give you, our military department can give you."

After saying that, she raised her legs and left the room with several of her men.

Percy withdrew his gaze and remained silent.

As a member of the institute's artificial sage project, in the eyes of those self-proclaimed orthodox researchers in the institute, a half-baked sage like him is not even considered a colleague.

More importantly... the "God" of the research institute does not accept "impure" people like the Sage as believers.

Is the military trying to win over the unpopular sages in the research institute?

The middle-aged man was still lost in thought, and the other military researchers also looked at each other in silence.

In this depressing atmosphere, the only one who seemed to be out of the situation was Lily.

The female student of Percy stretched herself and said with a smile, "Teacher, what should we do? I feel like I'm going to fall asleep if I stay here."

Percy came back to his senses:

"Release some small living creatures into the cage and see how the target reacts. It is a wise move to simulate the natural environment. It should make the target more comfortable. Perhaps it will show some abilities in the process of chasing living creatures."

——You Huan was taking a nap and trying to see if this body could run the Sage's Textbook when he suddenly felt the ground vibrate.

He opened his eyes, shook his mane, and stood up from the grass.

In the monitoring room, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him stand up.

Really sleeping...

But then they discovered, why did this young dragon look so listless?

——Faced with the living creatures released from underground and quickly entering everywhere, You Huan yawned, scratched his head with his claws, and then sat down again.

Did the people who were watching him want to see his reaction when he was hunting?

I'm sorry that they couldn't do that.

He decided to play himself in the body of the young dragon and lie down.

It's better to eat food when it's placed in front of your mouth. It's much more troublesome to hunt for it yourself.

The more abnormal and strange he behaved, the more people in the Hive would discuss him, and the more likely he would behave as he wished...

Sure enough, when the simulated day turned into evening, this huge ecological cage welcomed a group of "visitors".

The soldiers from the military and several researchers, wearing magical protective gear, walked carefully onto the grass.

The dragon's reaction was too abnormal. Percy was worried about its health and finally made a risky decision.

Personally bring people into the cage, interact with it, and collect samples to analyze its health status.

The decision seemed too bold at first, but he had already had a close encounter with the target while on the airship.

Perhaps the target needs a little "familiar" contact?

However, when the group walked onto the lawn with the food, they were surprised.

——The target disappeared from the grass without anyone noticing!

"Swish, swish——"

The slight sound of leaves rustling came from behind.

Everyone turned around suddenly and met a pair of blue eyes.

"Swish, swish--" This time it was not the sound of leaves, but the sound of the packaging of the meat being torn open as food.

In silence, they watched as the target indifferently hooked his claws, took out the food, and then began to eat it without a care in the world under their gaze.

Very relaxing.

As soon as the piece of meat enters the mouth, it turns into nutrients for the cattail fluff.

The little Pu pretending to be a mane shook its body slightly, and wisps of almost undetectable fluff flew out and silently took root on the coats of this group of people.

Because they were all wearing magic protective suits, the fluff couldn't penetrate the clothes silently for a while, but there would always be a chance.

"Do you... remember me?" At this time, You Huan heard a hesitant voice. It was Pelli.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

He glanced at the uncle, then turned away and continued to eat without distraction.

As he turned around, his eyes met with another person——

Pelliot's student, Lily.

Speaking of which, the institute seems to be full of men. How could Lily, a girl, be a student here?

Lily saw his inquiring look, smiled slightly, and squatted down to look him in the eye.

He always felt that there was something indescribable weird about this person.

She felt a sense of disharmony. This was a somewhat familiar aura... Where else had he felt a similar aura before...?

Now was not the time to study Lily.

He acted as if he only cared about the food that was delivered to his door and was indifferent to this group of people.

Even when they carefully collected samples of his hair and scanned him with instruments, he acted as if he ignored them.

This gave everyone a strange feeling.

At first they thought the young dragon was docile... but then they gradually realized that it was not docile.

It just ignores the things it doesn't care about.

But regardless, the contact was generally successful.

The crowd didn't stay long and left quickly.

When they changed their clothes, Xiao Pu's fur successfully took root on their bodies.

As a result, intelligence within the military began to flow to You Huan continuously.

Through casual conversations with some people in the military, he finally had a general understanding of the humans in this world.

There are two large human forces in this world, namely the Hive and the Outer Garden.

The hive contains some technological heritage from ancient times when the world was still not decadent. With years of hard work, they have reproduced some of the technology.

They master magical technology and are the most advanced human force in the world.

This "advanced" not only represents their social level, but also represents their "level of evolution" as human beings.

They have not changed much from the humans before the decline.

On the other hand, over in the outer garden, there was a group of "degenerate people" - the same kind of people that You Huan met when he first arrived in the Lost City.

Their intelligence and physical level have degenerated, and some of them have serious mutations. They are generally distributed in suburban areas where there are not many ruins of civilization.

Several hundred years ago, a large organization called the "Wai Luo Garden" emerged among the degenerate people. The top leaders of the garden raised and organized the degenerate people in units of "gardens".

Although they have almost no knowledge of magical technology, they have developed some unique equipment casting and animal taming techniques, and with their larger number of people than the Hive, they can compete with the Hive.

Privately, the Hive People generally believe that the Degenerate People are of different origins from themselves - the latter even call the remains of ancient civilization the remains of gods.

From a larger perspective, these two human forces are just a tiny corner of the vast world.

The only thing that occupies the entire world is the lifeless and hopeless silence.

The virtual sky fell into the night. In the darkness, two people bypassed the patrolling soldiers and walked silently into the cage. (End of this chapter)
