Withered tree

Just as the audience said, how could Cai Yan not be angry when he met two enemies at the same time, not to mention that there was more than one reason for him to be angry! Why did Su Yu act with Northfield? Is their relationship so good ma?

The development of this matter is completely different from what he thought! He mentioned Su Yu in front of Northfield at the beginning, not to introduce the two people to each other! All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and under impulse, Cai Yan couldn't help but ask: "Why are you together?"

This question was asked well. Speaking of this, Northfield felt that he should thank Cai Yan. If it weren't for Cai Yan's reminder, although he would have met Su Yu, he would definitely not have noticed Su Yu so quickly. Just for this point, he should thank Cai Yan.

Thinking of this, Northfield smiled slightly: "Should I thank the young patriarch for his introduction?"

Cai Yan: "..."

It's better not to say this kind of answer. Cai Yan was disgusted by this point, but he heard the reply he didn't want to hear the most. He almost couldn't breathe. However, he couldn't do anything. If he met only Su Yu this time, he could still choose to retaliate, but with Northfield, he had to endure the depression and disbelief in his heart and left angrily with his companions.

He really couldn't do anything to Northfield, but Su Yu was not. The latter had better pray that he would not be left alone, otherwise he would not let him go. It was more difficult for Cai Yan to accept being defeated by a weak person than by a strong person.

The enemies met, but fortunately they didn't fight. The golden water scorpion continued to move forward.

The destination is the tallest building in the city center. From this point of view, it seems easy to find, but in fact, there are countless tall buildings in the city center. Standing on the ground and looking up, it is impossible to tell which building is the tallest. Su Yu put away the Golden Water Scorpion and prepared to let the Icebone Spider take him to the top of one of the buildings. He was stopped by Northfield who used the space ability to teleport directly up.

It must be said that this space ability is very useful and can be used in a lot of ways. Su Yu asked the system in his heart, "Does my Zerg have this ability?"

[...] The system noticed Su Yu's thoughts and immediately wanted to answer a 'yes' to satisfy Su Yu, but reality did not allow it to answer like this. After struggling, it euphemistically said, [It depends on whether your Zerg can evolve this ability. The ability of Zerg General is not fixed, any ability may appear.]

Su Yu was not too disappointed with the system's answer. He has not even fully hatched the medium-level Zerg, let alone Zerg General who is still above high-level Zerg. The future is still unknown.

Arriving at the top of the building, the height difference of the surrounding buildings became clear at a glance. Soon, Su Yu and Northfield locked the target, teleported again, and went directly to the top floor of the building.

The top floor of the building should have been abandoned for a long time before the city was abandoned. It was empty all around, except for a long carpet in front of the French window, on which lay a strange flower. It was not false to say that the flower had a strange posture, because the branches and leaves of this flower were very strangely bent. At first glance, it seemed as if a person was lying on it with his hands and legs up.

When Su Yu and Northfield stepped into this place, the first thing they saw was this scene.

The flower, which was lying leisurely, heard the sound and turned back to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, its sight met the two contestants. Unprepared to see this scene, the flower was stunned for a moment, then, after reacting, it screamed: "Ahhhh---!!!"

The screams did not stop for a long time, echoing in the space. Northfield frowned slightly in distress: "Can you stop ma? Your voice is very harsh."

"..." Almost at the moment when Northfield's voice fell, the screams stopped abruptly.

Su Yu asked with a clear purpose: "Are you the NPC guarding the resource here?"

Flower scratched her petals with leaves and answered Su Yu's question carefully: "Should be... considered... ba?"

Having had the experience last time, Su Yu continued to ask naturally: "How can I take away the resource you are guarding? Answer your question, right?"

"..." OK, after hearing this, flower understood. Before her, at least one of her colleagues was beaten up (?), otherwise the contestant in front of her would not be so familiar with the process. As an NPC in the game, flower did not like and was not ready tricks to play on contestants, and now looking at Northfield as the background next to him, she would not do that.

Flower said honestly: "My question is, do you think health points are important ma?"

"Isn't this the question of the previous NPC ma?" Su Yu.

Touching her petals, hesitating for a few seconds, thinking that this is not something that needs to be hidden, so flower whispered to Su Yu: "All NPC questions are the same, but each NPC can give different clues."

[Is the staff at this resource point from the Loran civilization ma? It feels that the flower is very gentle.]

[Come on ba, haven't you seen how terrifying the flowers of Loran civilization are when they go berserk ma? Some flower species are particularly fierce and can definitely subvert your cognition. This time, Su Yu's luck must have played a role. He met a good staff member.]

[It doesn't matter whether the attitude is good or not. Even if it is not good, didn't you see that Northfield is still there.]

During the barrage chat, Su Yu gave the same answer as last time: "Important."

"You said it was important a? Then you have to run far away." Flower thought for a while: "The clue I have is that the energy shield fell on the edge of the city. As for the location, I don't know. The clue is in the hands of the staff at other resource points."

In the first sentence flower said, another piece of information was revealed. Su Yu noticed: "You said if the answer is important, so we have to run far away. If I answer it is not important, will you say a location close to it? The authorities have deployed two energy shields in the city?"

Flower was silent and slapped herself with leaves. Why can't she change this bad habit of gossiping? But now there is no way. She gritted her teeth and said: "This is your guess, not mine! And you only guessed a little bit, not completely right, it has nothing to do with me!" While clearing the relationship, this was also a tactful answer to Su Yu.

The more you say, the more mistakes you make. Flower knows herself too well. She is not going to speak again. She quickly took out a palm-sized blue energy and handed it to Su Yu with leaves.

Flower's attitude was already very good. Besides, if he continued to question, Flower would not be able to give any useful information. Su Yu took the blue energy and put it into the space storage device. Northfield watched quietly.

After giving out the resources for guarding, the staff was off work. Flower ran back to the French window and began to roll up her carpet. Originally, there was nothing here. The only carpet was brought in by her. Before leaving the game, of course, she had to take it away.

Su Yu's eyes were attracted by her movements, so he looked at the French window for a few times, and his eyes couldn't help but move up a few points. Looking through the French window, looking outside, it was still dim. Not to mention the beautiful scenery, most things were not clear, only some shadows could be seen vaguely.

Hmm? Su Yu paused, what is that?

"What?" Northfield noticed the change in Su Yu's expression.

Su Yu walked towards the French window and answered Northfield at the same time: "I saw a strange thing."

Hearing this, Northfield also raised his legs to follow, very soon, the two walked to the French window.

After approaching, the things outside were still unclear, but compared to before, it was barely clearer. Su Yu looked at it for a while and wondered: "Is that a tree ma?" From the outline, it vaguely looked like a withered tree, very tall, which is why it can still be seen in the wind and sand.

If it is really a tree, it would be a little strange. After all, this is the center of the city, full of technological products, but there is an extremely huge tree growing, which is inconsistent no matter how you think about it.

Su Yu and Northfield's sights were outside the window, so they didn't see it. When Su Yu spoke, flower's action of rolling the carpet was stiff for a moment, then the speed of rolling the carpet increased. After rolling it up in a hurry, flower chose to teleport out of the map while holding the carpet.

As long as she run fast enough! Things can't catch up with her!

Flower disappeared, and the two didn't care. Su Yu stared at the French window for a moment and made a decision. He wanted to go to the shadow of the tree to see what it was... Maybe it was because of the theme store with the giant tree, or it might be the fairy tale book on the underground negative floor, which made him see the tree and couldn't help but associate it.

Su Yu told this idea to Northfield, who certainly did not refuse. It was just a matter of taking a look, it would not waste much time.

Leaving the building, holding up a protective shield, the two looked in the direction of the tree shadow. Because the wind and sand obscured their vision, even if they looked from the high building, they could only see a vague outline. As for the specific location of the tree shadow, it was impossible to determine, there was only a general direction for them to explore.

In order to speed up the search, Su Yu released a few bee mosquitoes.

More than ten minutes later, Su Yu and Northfield came to the place where the tree shadow was. Unexpectedly, this was actually a big tree, or a giant tree. Roughly estimated, the height of the tree may be one-third of the previous high-rise building. Naturally, the trunk of this tall giant tree is also very thick, and it is estimated that four or five people will have to hold it together to barely encircle it.

This height, it may be an ancient tree that is very old, which can barely explain why such a thing appears in the center of the city.

Su Yu raised his hand and touched the trunk of the giant tree. The uneven dry feel came from the palm of his hand, he could not feel any vitality. Yes, it was a pity. The giant tree should have been dead for a long time. After all, the planetary resources were exhausted and the city was abandoned. The giant tree could not move and could only be abandoned. There was only one fate without nutrients.

Walking around the tree, there was nothing to find. No matter how you look at it, this is a tree that already withered. Moreover, most of the leaves of this tree have fallen off. The few remaining leaves are also lifeless brown, which is not similar to the golden leaves in the theme store and the storybook.

The sky gradually darkened, it was night time again.

There was no useful information here, it was impossible to continue to waste time. Su Yu stopped and chose to leave with Northfield.
