Chapter 390 The Real Use of Saplings
"What did you say?"
Lin Fan looked sharply at Noah as if he had heard something unbelievable.
Noah met his gaze without the slightest panic and repeated:
"I said, our 'mother' has the power to drive away darkness."
This time, Lin Fan heard it clearly.
He certainly didn't mishear.
The other party said that the entity that led them actually possessed the power to expel the darkness.
How is this possible?
Lin Fan wasn't that he didn't believe it, but he just found it rather unbelievable.
At the same time, his brain was working at lightning speed to determine the truthfulness of the other person's statement.
however,
Noah, as if reading his mind, continued:
"Mr. Lin, I know this sounds unbelievable."
Furthermore, words can't prove anything, so I can let you witness it for yourself.
"Witness it personally? How can I witness it?"
Lin Fan stared at the other person with some doubt.
Noah didn't offer any further explanation, but simply turned to look at Helen.
Helen immediately understood, then turned and walked to a specially made freezer in the corner of the laboratory.
After a long string of passwords was entered, the cabinet door opened.
She took out a sealed glass container from it, which contained a handful of pitch-black soil.
"These are samples collected by our members from the Black Forest in the north."
Seeing Lin Fan frowning as he stared at the sample, Noah offered an explanation, then continued,
"I believe Mr. Lin will be able to distinguish the authenticity of this sample."
Ok.
Lin Fan nodded in response. The moment Helen took out the sample, he sensed the fluctuation emanating from the darkness through the container.
Seeing this, Noah continued:
"Since Mr. Li is able to make that judgment, I won't go into further details."
All I want to say is that this soil is infectious.
"And what we need to do next is to purify this soil."
"Let's go, Mr. Lin."
Noah made a "please" gesture.
"Let's go to the breeding area."
Seeing this, Lin Fan didn't stand on ceremony and walked directly towards the cultivation area.
He wanted to see exactly how the other party purified these contaminated samples.
The group soon arrived at the cultivation area.
Noah gestured for him to wait a moment in the incubation area, then opened the door to the incubation room and went inside by himself.
Inside the nursery, the sapling stood quietly in the center, looking quite ordinary.
Noah walked to a spot about a meter away from the sapling, carefully opened the glass container, and poured the dark soil inside onto the surface.
The moment the handful of black soil came into contact with the environment of the cultivation room, it seemed to come alive, wisps of black mist emanating from it, and the surrounding ground seemed to be stained with ink, quickly turning gray.
After doing all this, Noah stepped back a few paces and closed his eyes.
His lips moved slightly, and a series of incomprehensible, strangely slurred syllables came from his mouth.
The sound didn't seem to be human language; it was more like a strange resonance.
It gave the impression that he was communicating with some unknown entity.
Soon, Lin Fan, who was frowning, suddenly narrowed his pupils.
Suddenly, the sapling in the center of the cultivation room lit up in a strange way.
It wasn't a blinding light, but a soft, milky-white glow, like moonlight.
Light emanated from every leaf and every branch of the sapling, illuminating the entire cultivation room.
Immediately afterwards, under the soft light, the black soil that had been exuding an ominous aura began to change visibly.
The wisps of black energy melted away rapidly, just like ice and snow exposed to the scorching sun.
In just a short time, the polluted soil was purified into ordinary soil.
The whole process took less than a minute.
All of this would be truly unbelievable if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes.
At this moment, what might seem sacred to others appeared extremely eerie to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan stood silently in the observation room.
He didn't understand the underlying principles, but he understood the result.
Noah was not lying.
This sapling truly possesses the power to purify the pollution of the Black Forest!
"squeak--"
Just then, the door to the incubation room was opened, and Noah walked out calmly.
Seeing Lin Fan remain silent, the same smile reappeared on his face.
He walked up to Lin Fan and spoke again:
"How is it?"
"Mr. Lin, you have now seen the results. A mother's power can not only purify darkness, but also purify people's hearts."
"Destruction and rebirth, chaos and order. We are born to stand together."
As he spoke, he opened his arms, like a messenger of God welcoming believers.
"Join us, Mr. Lin."
By becoming one with us, you will no longer be alone, and your power will be perfectly guided.
Then, together we will become the gods of this new world!
This is insane!
Facing the fervent Noah, Lin Fan thought to himself, "What do you mean?"
Then, the look on his face gradually froze, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.
"Become a god?" He scoffed. "Sounds good."
Hearing this, Noah's smile widened: "You agree?"
"No."
However, Lin Fan's answer surprised him somewhat.
At the same time, the smile on Lin Fan's face vanished instantly, replaced by a pure chill.
Why should I join you?
As he spoke, he took a step forward, staring intently at Noah, his tone becoming menacing.
"I planted this tree."
And this base is mine too.
And you, you can only be considered outsiders.
"To put it bluntly, you are just a bunch of stray cats and dogs that built their nests in my backyard."
"Now that the cats and dogs have gained some skills, they want to turn around and act like their owners' fathers?"
Lin Fan's words were increasingly harsh and scathing.
Noah's smile froze completely. He never expected that the grand vision he had described would be compared to this in the other party's eyes.
"Mr. Lin, what do you mean by this?" Noah's voice turned cold.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Lin Fan's gaze swept over Noah, then over Helen, who looked utterly bewildered, before he slowly raised his right arm.
"Click click click—"
The familiar black scales reappeared, quickly covering his entire arm, and a suffocating malice spread out.
"That means I don't need to cooperate, and I don't want to cooperate."
At this point, his voice became low and dangerous.
"I'm giving you two choices now."
"One is to obediently be my tool, to tell me everything about the tree's capabilities and everything else you know."
"The second thing is... I'll kill you all right now, then dig up this tree and take it back to Raccoon City for research."
I believe that someone will eventually figure it out.
As he finished speaking, he grinned, revealing a set of white teeth; that smile had a touch of cruelty.
"I've always been the kind of person who wants it all. You, including this tree, I want them all."
"You...you shameless robber!"
Noah was so angry that he trembled all over and his face turned red.
He had never seen such a shameless person!
Despite being a powerful force capable of changing the world order, the other side didn't think about cooperation and win-win outcomes, but instead opted for outright robbery!
"You are going against the future! You are going against God!"
"god?"
Lin Fan thought he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
"What god is there before me?"
"Bang!"
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared from the spot.
The next second, Noah was once again gripped by the black-scaled hand, which pressed him firmly against the observation glass.
The immense force caused the entire special glass to groan under the strain.
"I'll ask you one more time, which one do you choose?"
Lin Fan brought his face close to Noah's, his cold breath spraying onto Noah's face.
"Lin! Stop!" Helen rushed forward, trying to stop him.
But Lin Fan only glanced at her coldly, and the murderous intent in his eyes made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave, freezing her in place and not daring to move.
