Ten seconds later, the bodies of three tigers lay behind Chu Fei. He held a knife in his right hand and looked calmly ahead.
The remaining ten or so tigers no longer roared, but instead howled and ran away with their tails between their legs.
Those who can become strange beasts have some real wisdom.
After seeing Chu Fei chop down three of his companions like melons and vegetables, the remaining tiger made the wisest choice.
Chu Fei snorted lightly and did not pursue. He turned around and used ultrasonic waves to explore the corpses of the three tigers and found three good "magic cores". Then he just carried his backpack and walked forward leisurely, step by step.
Walk into the mist.
The mist undulated like waves, and suddenly a wave peak hit his face. Chu Fei felt a majestic energy refreshing his heart and mind, as if he had been baptized from head to toe.
"Cool!"
"Ouch..." Chu Lei also poked his head out of his backpack and breathed in the fresh air greedily.
Chu Fei continued to walk forward. At this time, the map he got from Yuan Mingyuan had reached its end. Chu Fei had to explore the next road by himself.
After advancing more than fifty meters according to the detection of the wind of perception, Chu Fei discovered a stainless steel road sign that had been covered by vines.
Without the wind of perception, this "treasure" would not have been discovered.
After peeling off the vines, I saw some mottled fonts:
[Transgenic Tree of Life Research Base]
"Genetically modified technology is exactly what it is.
No wonder there are no magic elves here, because this is not a real elf tree at all, let alone an elf mother tree."
Seeing this road sign, Chu Fei finally explained his doubts.
Without the demon elves, this place has become a paradise for strange beasts.
At least half of the dozen or so tigers just now are third-level alien beasts, which are alien beasts that have reached the height of awakened beings, and they are also alien beasts born in such a place rich in energy.
Therefore, Yuan Mingyuan and others, and even those who were chasing Yuan Mingyuan, came to test it out, but had to withdraw. They clearly arrived at the treasure land, but had to return empty-handed.
But for Chu Fei, killing those tigers and so on is just like killing a little friend with one knife.
Strange beasts were constantly probing around, but none of them could escape Chu Fei's wind of perception.
As long as they are within the attack range, they will be chopped with one knife and a magic core will be dug out. If they are not within the attack range, they will be completely ignored.
Compared to the strange beasts around him, Chu Fei was more interested in the "nursery" itself.
While walking around, Chu Fei searched for the contents in his memory, mainly related information about this base, and he really found it.
There is a lot of content and it is quite complicated.
To sum it up, it’s probably:
This dimension mainly studies magic, and the derived life and human energy research, but there are also several subsidiary studies, such as the effect of the Elf Tree on collecting life energy.
The most peculiar thing about the Elf Tree is that it can absorb the life energy floating in the air and store it in a unique way.
Life energy is similar to electromagnetic energy, and both are converted from light energy. Compared with light energy, they both belong to secondary energy (quantity).
Every moment something new is created, something old disappears, and the whole thing maintains a dynamic balance.
Both are active energies that exist widely in nature, and there are also some products of 'solidified energy', but this naturally occurring solidified energy is of very low quality.
For example, magnets exist in nature, which can be used as a compass and can meet basic social needs. But if you want to develop industry, the little energy stored in nature is completely ignored.
The same is true for life energy. The way it is stored in nature, usually by living organisms, is to transfer it through food.
However, the life energy stored and transferred in this way is very low, and can only sustain basic life needs and the lowest level of practice.
If you want to meet the needs of more advanced spiritual practice, you must find another way.
In the ancient Yanhuang civilization, we found this method: Feng Shui, alchemy, sacrifice, and even burial, etc.
But most of these things are based on the accumulation of experience from phenomena, and finally summed up "techniques". The overall efficiency is very low, and they often know what is happening but don't know why. Anyway, a real cultivation civilization has not been built through this method.
Later, the Yanhuang civilization still embarked on the road of scientific development. Finally, through scientific development, it finally overtook the world and finally found a path of spiritual practice with a scientific core, which is now the practice of big data.
It looks a bit like overtaking on a curve.
However, the Yanhuang civilization never gave up on the exploration of nature.
Various elixirs and the like are the products of the exploration process, but these things have never been ideal.
It was not until the discovery of demon elves, elf mother trees, etc. in dimensional space that the Yanhuang civilization made breakthrough progress in its research on "biological storage of life energy."
The current nursery of genetically modified experiments is one of the products of research.
Unfortunately, like magic research, the research here had to be shelved due to various problems that occurred thousands of years ago. But it was not completely shelved, and was continued by the established intelligent system.
Just like the research in the previous dimension (butterfly transformation), the research program is still running on its own and running data.
"I wonder if there are key technologies in this research base?"
With expectation, Chu Fei walked forward step by step, using the wind of perception to detect the surroundings with every step he took to prevent danger.
A tropical rainforest that has been around for hundreds of years is already in crisis, let alone a training base for Elf Trees that has been around for thousands of years.
The fallen branches on the ground are very thick, and if you don't pay attention, you will step on them. In other words, Chu Fei has the ability to sense the wind, so he can avoid them very well.
The danger here is beyond imagination. The rich life energy makes all life here particularly active.
Even in the dead of winter, it is still green here, and all kinds of mutated animals are looming. From bugs to beasts, there are everything.
Especially those mutant bugs that are less than the size of a palm are actually more terrifying than large mutant bugs. Because they are too small, they are difficult to defend and intercept.
Fortunately, Chu Fei still has a protective jacket on his body. Chu Fei has many sets of these jackets he snatched from others.
Occasionally, a ferocious beast or a large poisonous insect rushed out and wanted to have a feast, but Chu Fei chopped it down with a knife.
The sword snatched from Zhang Haoyuan's hand was sharp beyond imagination. No matter what strange fangs or teeth it was, it couldn't stop the sharp edge.
As for poisonous gas and the like, Chu Fei doesn't need to breathe at all now, he just blocks it.
For Chu Fei, this journey can be said to be smooth and hassle-free.
In the end, I still relied on the wind of perception to find an underground research base.
Although I have found research information in my memory, compared to the research on magic, this is just a subsidiary research, with only a general introduction and no specific details.
This place has been covered by fallen leaves for thousands of years, and no traces can be found for a long time.
That is, Chu Fei's wind of perception, to be precise, is the sound wave detection, which can penetrate the ground and lock on the target.
The target has been found, but it is underground, and Chu Fei doesn’t want to dig it out. What should he do?
Chu Fei turned his head and looked at the strange beasts around him, and suddenly showed a bright smile.
Two hours later, two wolves, a fox, a tiger, and even an orangutan began to dig into the ground.
Chu Fei stood on a tall tree trunk and looked down at the surroundings.
On the ground below the tree trunk, there are corpses of a giant two-headed snake, a giant mutant lizard, etc.
"Chu Lei" is lying on a two-headed snake gnawing here and there. The little guy also needs to eat.
Although this basin is not big, there are quite a lot of strange beasts in it. To be precise, all the strange beasts from dozens of kilometers around are gathered here.
But there are still many "audiences" around. For example, little squirrels.
Of course, the little squirrel here is mutated, but even if it is mutated, it is not very strong. Due to innate physical problems, it is only a second-level alien beast at most. If you put it here, it will be the bottom of the food chain.
But now, I see little squirrels of different colors popping up out of nowhere, forming a circle on the surrounding trees, holding pine nuts, hazelnuts and even a wrinkled "walnut" to chew on.
Stand and watch the third-level alien beasts who are "working for a living".
The little squirrels were very smart. When they found out that Chu Fei was ignoring them, they started chirping and calling their friends, turning on the spectator mode.
Chu Fei looked amused, and suddenly took out a bottle of ordinary super potion, waved to the nearest little squirrel, waved the potion bottle in his hand, and pointed at the "walnut" in the little squirrel's hand.
Chu Fei felt the thin but pure life energy in this bitten "walnut". This should be a genetically modified fruit.
But the specific difference requires detailed observation. It is winter now, and there are no fruits on the surrounding trees. Apparently, they have all been picked by these hard-working little guys.
The little squirrel was not stupid. He looked at the beautiful crystal (plastic) bottle in Chu Fei's hand that he had never seen before, and then looked at the fruit he had eaten a lot in his hand. Finally, he jumped up to Chu Fei and exchanged it peacefully.
Chu Fei took out a bottle of ordinary super potion, opened the potion bottle, drank it, and threw away the bottle.
The little squirrel understood, bit open the bottle cork with his teeth, and drank the potion. Suddenly he chirped excitedly and jumped away. He returned after a while and brought back another fruit.
Chu Fei has already studied the actual situation of this "elf fruit".
This fruit looks a bit like a walnut and is about the size of an egg.
Walnuts don't look very pretty, and neither does this one. But the kernels inside are edible.
Chu Fei felt it carefully and even took two bites of the nuts. It was estimated that the life energy contained in the fruits was about 5 calories. It should be said that it was very low.
But in just a moment, Chu Fei thought of the value of this fruit - a child, a semi-awakened person with a large distortion index!
As we all know, money is best earned by children and patients.
Although the fruit is a product of genetic modification and the energy contained in it is very low, it is pure life energy.
This alone is extremely precious.
Moreover, the fruit tastes very good and is rich in vitamins and other nutrients.
However, it is obvious that this piece of genetically modified Elf Tree (let’s call it that) cannot be taken away.
Once again, he exchanged a fruit from the little squirrel's hand. Chu Fei ate it thoughtfully.
"This orchard will definitely be destroyed with the collapse of space.
Referring to the collapse of the previous dimensional space, things here should fall into the real world. But it will obviously be a mess.
In other words, if you want to make a fortune from this fruit, you have to go to the research base to find out if there is any technology, such as genetically modified technology, seed technology, etc."
While Chu Fei was thinking, there was a squeaking sound all around, but several little squirrels came over carrying fruits.
Chu Fei laughed and began to sit on the ground and raise the price.
At first, one fruit is exchanged for a bottle of super potion, and then it jumps directly to 10-fruit.
During this period, Chu Fei touched a squirrel that was obviously old and seemed to be a little wise, and muttered:
"In another twenty days, the world will be destroyed, and I'm afraid you won't be able to retain any of your fruits. Even your lives will be in danger.
Although there are some problems with super potions, they can increase your strength dramatically in a short period of time.
Twenty days...well...that is, black and white alternate twenty times. The outside world..."
Chu Fei didn't care whether these little things understood or not, but he was still mumbling.
The old squirrel seemed to understand something. After chirping for a while, more fruits came over.
It's a pity that Chu Fei didn't carry many super potions with him, only about fifty bottles in total.
For Chu Fei now, he has accumulated some super potions. As for the psychic potions, Chu Fei himself is not enough.
In front, the "temporary workers" finally dug through the ground and dug out a window.
Chu Fei waved his hand, and the temporary workers ran away. Chu Fei came to the window, fiddled with it a few times, and then split it open with a knife.
Compared to magic research, the level of confidentiality here is very low, and there are basically no protective measures.
Entering it, I found that it was filled with all kinds of bugs, rotten tree roots, etc., and the air was filled with a musty smell.
Chu Fei held his breath, and the wind of perception continued to search the surroundings, finding the entrance to the second floor.
The entrance here actually has electricity, and permissions need to be checked. There is even a warning that if you forcefully crack it, it will self-destruct.
Chu Fei scratched his head a little. After thinking about it, an idea came to him. He thought of Gu Yun's account number that he saw when he accepted the inheritance. He immediately entered it manually and the door opened instantly...a gap.
It doesn't work anymore, it's in disrepair and it's stuck.
Fortunately, there was enough gap, so Chu Fei carefully squeezed into it and closed it from the inside.
As Chu Fei entered, the lights on the second floor were gradually turned on. However, many of them could no longer be lit, making the lighting dim.
Compared with the messy first floor, the second floor is normal. Although the ground is a little damp, it has not been damaged at all.
When you reach the second floor, you enter the core area. After all, this is just a subsidiary research, and it is also a subsidiary research hidden in the dimensional space. The level of confidentiality itself is already very high, and there is no need for higher confidentiality measures.
With Gu Yun's account, Chu Fei soon found the research information and research results.
There was a lot of information and a lot of results. After reading it for a few hours, Chu Fei couldn't help but marvel.
The research here is a kind of "gene compilation" research, not just simple transgenesis.
The genes of the Elf Tree are not from the Earth system, and their genes cannot be used directly. They must be deciphered, re-edited, and translated with the genes of the Earth system before they can be truly used. Even so, there are still issues such as compatibility.
After repeated attempts and research, the best one turned out to be the "walnut tree". Its fruit (kernel) Chu Fei had already eaten, and it was the fruit reserved by the little squirrels.
Walnut trees have a natural advantage - they are resistant to storage. They also have natural advantages in terms of pest control.
In addition, compared with the pits of other fruits, the pits of walnuts are larger, richer in nutrients, and taste better.
Walnuts that have been genetically modified and contain some elf wood are excellent economic crops.
Fruit trees can bear fruit in three years, and the annual output is 10 to 20 fruits. According to research data, the price of a fruit is 500 yuan. Of course, this was the price thousands of years ago, and the currency is different from now.
Now, Chu Fei estimates that a fruit can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan or even more. If nothing else, just by lowering the distortion index, it can be sold to the sky.
This is an excellent cash crop.
But it is a pity that this is the end of the world and the conditions for commercial cultivation are very poor.
Chu Fei put away the technology here. With the technology, he can directly transform walnut seeds in the future. Moreover, this kind of genetically modified walnut seeds do not have the ability to reproduce.
However, plants can be cut, not necessarily seeds!
With the current technology of the outside world, as long as you have half a leaf, you can successfully make a cutting. Although it is the end of the world, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there are still many skills left. And cutting this is really not a high-level skill.
Cutting edge technology.
So Chu Fei just retained the technology here. As for how to use it in the future, let’s talk about it later. There is no need to think about it in the short term.
As for the base and information here, Chu Fei can destroy it and is destroying it. But there are so many fruit trees outside, there is nothing we can do.
Maybe he could set fire to it, but he couldn't burn the roots. Thinking of those weird little squirrels and the vast breath of life, Chu Fei still couldn't do it.
"Let it go. I happen to be here for retreat."
With the help of the safe environment here and the rich life energy of the outside world, Chu Fei started the best retreat since his practice:
Quiet, long time, abundant life energy, knowledge reserve beyond imagination, the thinking model reaches its peak but lacks polish;
Especially the dew of wisdom, there are still thousands of them left.
In retreat...
Since Chu Fei came to this world, he has been busy, busy, busy non-stop. Even if he retreats in the academy once, he will be under a lot of pressure.
At that time, Chu Fei had just begun to rise to prominence and had little ability to act independently. At that time, Chu Fei had only one idea - to become stronger as soon as possible and have the ability to protect himself.
Now, Chu Fei has gained the initial ability to protect himself, and his cultivation has reached a temporary peak, and he can finally take a good rest.
And faintly, Chu Fei felt that maybe this would be his last peace. After leaving the dimensional space, he would definitely be involved in a huge storm.
