After finishing speaking, Charlotte walked towards the crystal cluster tree, while Chitaki watched nervously to prevent any sudden situation.
Unfortunately, everything was normal and nothing strange happened at all.
Charlotte walked under the big tree, she slowly stretched out her arms and hugged the tree, and put her head against the tree's body.
Suddenly the wind picked up!
The gray fog floating around began to blow away.
Charlotte's long silver hair moved with the wind, her whole body shone with silver light, and the whole tree also emitted a soft halo.
The branches start to sway!
Charlotte seemed to feel something. She let go of her hand and took a few steps back. A blurry shadow of an old man emerged.
"Are you calling me?" The white-haired old man's shadow made a hoarse and weak voice.
"Lord Jhin, we need your help." Charlotte replied with a respectful salute.
"You know me? Who are you?" Jhin looked at Charlotte.
Charlotte felt for a moment, as if she had been seen through, and she tried her best to remain calm and replied.
"Yes, I am a member of the Shipney, and I am here to wake you up."
"I remembered, you were talking about Hyperion? But when did Hyperion also have descendants of the Silver clan?" Jhin replied calmly.
"Yes, we joined later." Chitaki walked over at this time.
Jhin raised his head and looked at Chitaki. Chitaki suddenly felt a mental pressure as heavy as Mount Tai, but he still endured it, even though the pressure was a bit heavy.
"Young man, you give me a very familiar feeling." Jhin replied hoarsely.
Chitaki was also startled: "Familiar feeling?"
"But I can't remember it, my memory is very messy." Jhin said lightly.
"Lord Jhin? Can you help us?" Charlotte begged.
Jhin looked at Charlotte and said, "It's okay to let me help you, but everything comes with a price, not for nothing."
Chitaki was shocked when he heard Jhin's words. Isn't this Hyperion's optical brain? What's going on? Why is there a price? This guy must have lost too much memory and forgotten everything.
Also shocked was Charlotte, who was also a little confused.
Chitaki coughed and asked: "Lord Jhin, do you have a severe memory loss and have forgotten most of Hyperion's memories?"
"In this regard, I still remember that I was injured and hiding in Hyperion. A long time ago, I saved the entire people of Hyperion. In return, they tried their best to protect me." Jhin replied hoarsely.
Hearing Jhin's words, Chitaki turned to stone. After working for a long time, this optical brain does not belong to Hyperion. This guy is an independent individual. In a sense, Hyperion still owes him, but if this is the case, Chitaki
I can still accept what the other party said about having to pay a price.
"What should we do? What price do we have to pay to get your help?" Chitaki asked seriously.
"I'm old enough, and I haven't recovered from the injuries I suffered. I can't withstand any hardships. I need time to slowly recover," Jin replied.
"But how can we support you?" Chitaki didn't feel that the other party's request was too much.
Jhin turned to look at Charlotte. Charlotte raised her little finger and pointed at herself in confusion?
"I?"
"Yes, you are from the Silver clan, and your qualifications are very good. Use your spirit to nourish me little by little. This is the price. In return, I will teach you many things to help you grow up, and at the same time, I will also satisfy you.
Some simple requests." Jhin replied.
When Charlotte was agreeing, Chitaki walked up to Charlotte, interrupted her, and asked directly and seriously.
"What are the side effects of Charlotte using her spirit to nourish you?"
Charlotte looked at Chitaki with some emotion and said involuntarily: "Sir Chitaki."
"If you give up, you will get something. If she uses her spirit to nourish me, she will naturally lose a certain amount of energy and lose some lives, but that is nothing. I will teach her the spiritual cultivation methods of her family, and she will grow up quickly.
And since she is young and has a long life, I will also give her the life gene potion, which will be enough to make up for her loss of life." Jhin replied hoarsely.
Chitaki's expression kept changing. He couldn't be sure whether Jhin's words were true or false, but he seemed to have no choice now but to believe the other person.
"Chitaki-sama, it's okay." Charlotte replied with a smile.
Chitaki fell silent and didn't say anything.
Charlotte turned her head and saluted Jhin and replied: "I do."
"Smart, if you can't survive the immediate situation, then it's very stupid to think about the long term." Jhin said lightly.
"Lord Jin, I am a little curious. Are you a tree? Are you not a human?" Charlotte asked doubtfully.
"Of course I am a human, but I have given up my human form. That decayed form can no longer accommodate me. In my eyes, the form of a tree is the best state for the continuation of life, so I changed my form into this state.
"Jin replied.
Chitaki didn't even know what to say. This guy probably didn't know how long he had lived. He didn't understand. What was the point of living like this?
"I hope you abide by the spirit of the contract, and I hope everything you say is okay. I don't want to see Charlotte get hurt. If you go against what you said and hurt my friend, I'm sorry that you will be my enemy and I will be left alone."
I won’t say anything anymore.” Chitaki said with a serious expression.
Jin replied hoarsely: "I haven't seen such a principled person for a long time. You make me feel very familiar. I will also reach a contract exchange with you."
"Opportunity exchange?" Chitaki was also surprised.
"In the long years, if you can give me everything I want or what I think is valuable, you can get the help you want from me." Jhin said hoarsely.
"Okay, but tell me what you need? What can I get from you? What if you don't have what I want?" Chitaki asked in turn.
Charlotte looked at Chitaki with great admiration at this time. She felt that Lord Chitaki was so powerful that he could ignore Lord Jhin and negotiate terms with him.
"What I need is knowledge and something that can restore my life, and what you can get in return is my knowledge and my remaining memories. Those memories contain countless secrets and treasures of history." Jhin replied.
Chitaki looked at Jin with some uncertainty, and he tried to ask: "Can you make a fifth-generation machine?"
"It's funny, the most difficult thing about the fifth-generation machine is the production of the optical brain, and the most difficult thing about the production of the optical brain is the Helos device." Jhin replied without any hesitation.
Chitaki felt a huge distance in her heart. This guy is scarier than imagined!
