She was not old, maybe about 17 or 18 years old.
She looked quite clean and she was the kind of girl who one could bear to look at. The more he looked at her, the better she looked.
However, her faintly pale face revealed a pained expression, as if she was enduring something.
"This is my poor granddaughter. She has been unconscious for three days."
As he spoke, the old man looked at the regiment commander and Jack who were walking over and pleaded, "Officers, if you have any solutions, please help me. Even if you have to compensate me with this old bone, I will accept it."
"Don't, don't..."
Holding onto the old man, the regiment commander tactfully pulled the old man to the side.
At this moment, if anyone had a solution, it would be this extraordinary person in front of him.
Moreover, when he stepped into the room, the leader had already noticed Jack's abnormality, as if he was shocked by something.
At this moment, just as the leader had guessed, Jack's heart could not stop shaking.
"Awakening, it's really awakening."
Looking at the pale girl lying on the bed not far away, Jack lost his composure for the first time.
As an extraordinaire, Jack was not unfamiliar with awakening.
Spiritual energy baptized the body and the soul resonated with it.
In terms of performance, everyone was more or less different.
Some people completed the awakening while sleeping, while others suffered for three days and three nights
Complete the awakening.
And the girl in front of him was awakening...
Her body was already wrapped in spiritual energy and the dreamlike spiritual energy seemed to be seeping into her body.
Her body was squeezing desperately...
At the same time, Jack also felt a surging heat wave coming towards him.
Fire elemental talent.
With a murmur, Jack looked at the young girl with a complicated gaze.
Elemental talent was one of the most terrifying extraordinary talents.
And fire element was the most violent and destructive type of elemental talent.
Until now, there were very few people in the entire country who could awaken such a talent.
Even he himself had only awakened his body to strengthen it.
Needless to say, Jack knew that he had really picked up a treasure this time.
As for whether or not he could wake the girl up, that was not something he should consider.
After all, if those old fellows from the research institute found out about this, they would probably go crazy and use all sorts of methods to wake the girl up.
The dusk was slightly cold. The low and dilapidated south room did not see any sunlight all year round. It was dark and damp, and the wall had long fallen off. The walls were uneven.
At this moment, a moan suddenly broke the silence that seemed like death.
Looking up, under Jack's astonished gaze, the eyelids of the pale girl lying on the bed actually trembled slightly.
"Eh, she won't wake up, right?"
His heart was slightly startled and Jack was also somewhat stunned.
Before he could do anything, the girl had already woken up.
This... didn't this mean that this girl should be taken away by him?
Thinking of this, Jack also took a step forward and took out a test tube from his military uniform that he kept close to his body.
It was a spirit medicine that belonged solely to extraordinary people.
After the painstaking research of those old people in the research institute, they were able to extract the spirit energy in the air.
It could replenish the spiritual power of extraordinaires in a short period of time and, at the same time, it could promote the awakening of a person's talent.
However, this kind of good spiritual power potion was highly toxic to ordinary people.
It was also at this moment that Jack accurately determined that the girl in front of him was awakening. Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to take out this spiritual power potion.
At that moment, in the depths of the canyon, a tall willow branch swayed and thick fog whistled, displaying its power.
"How is it now?"
Lin Meng's voice was solemn as he asked softly.
"Master, it's a success."
With her eyes tightly shut, she leaned against the willow tree trunk. A 1.67 m tall woman in a white dress smiled slightly.
Then, she added, "I've already taken over her body. It's just that I'm not used to it. I feel very stiff."
"It's fine."
After consoling her, Lin Meng said with some satisfaction, "You should get used to her body for now. If nothing goes wrong, this group of humans will stay overnight in that small village. This little bit of time is enough for you to ask around."
"Hmm."
Nodding slightly, the girl repeated what Lin Meng had told her earlier:
"Three questions. The first is, why did they come here? The second is, how did they know about this place? The third is, the current situation..."
"Yes."
Looking at the young lady with satisfaction, Lin Meng also reminded her, "Remember, don't ask around too much. It's best if you ask around unintentionally. I believe that this shouldn't be difficult for you."
"Hehe."
The young girl smiled mischievously but she didn't say much.
Compared to before, she had already reached level 5. Although her strength didn't increase qualitatively, she had more spirituality.
Thinking about it, she must have absorbed her younger sister's soul and made up for her own lack to a certain extent.
The night was very heavy. In a fire pit at the village chief's house, several people were sitting together. Not far away, there were people chatting in groups of two or three.
Meanwhile, the village chief's family and some villagers were preparing supper in the kitchen to entertain the soldiers who had come from afar. They had not even had a bite of hot food.
Although these soldiers had the intention to refuse, they could not withstand the villagers' enthusiasm.
Not to mention, their superior seemed to have unintentionally awakened the village chief's little granddaughter.
This made the villagers very grateful. They even took out the preserved meat that was prepared for the New Year.
At this moment, beside the bonfire, there was a young girl with long black hair and a very beautiful face.
Her eyes were very clear, so clean that there were no impurities.
Her name was Julie, the village chief's second granddaughter.
She was also a girl who had been in a coma and had not woken up for a long time.
However, just now, because of some unknown reason, she woke up.
However, what was surprising was that she actually seemed to have lost her memory, and did not even recognize the village chief.
However, this did not affect the joy of the village chief and the others.
"It's good that you're awake. It's good that you're awake."
Wiping the corner of his eyes, the village chief looked at his little granddaughter sitting not far away with a doting expression.
This was his last hope.
To be able to wake up was already a blessing.
As for amnesia, there was no harm in it.
The current village chief did not dare to ask for more.
At this moment, Jack, who was sitting beside the bonfire, looked at the young girl not far away. His eyes could not help but flicker.
Especially when he looked into the depths of the young girl's eyes. There was a cluster of sparks that occasionally flashed and disappeared. Jack let out a deep breath.
This was the sign of an elemental talent awakening.
In other words, this young girl had really awakened a rare fire elemental talent.
He didn't know if it was because of the young girl's talent or because of that snake gall.
But there was one thing that didn't need to be doubted. Jack had already taken a fancy to this little girl. He was even prepared to recommend her to that place.
Thinking of this, Jack looked at the village chief and spoke again:
"Village Chief, I wonder if you have considered the matter I mentioned to you just now?"
Hearing Jack's words, the tobacco pipe in the village chief's hand trembled slightly. He then sighed.
"Although I want to refuse, it might be better for Julie to go with you."
Hearing this, Jack's face was excited. He patted his chest and promised, "Village Chief, don't worry, Julie. I've already treated her as my own sister."
"I will definitely ensure her safety."
As he said this, Jack added, "Also, I promise that I will definitely ask the best to cure little sister Julie's amnesia."
"Okay."
Nodding his head, a satisfied look appeared on the village chief's face.
He did not care about anything else but the attitude of this young man made him very concerned.
It had to be said that this young man was really outstanding.
His behavior was very polite and he spoke with great respect for his elders.
Even when he came to the depths of the mountain, he didn't show any signs of disdain.
Just this point alone made this young man worthy of his trust.
And at this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted their conversation.
"That, why did you come here?"
With an innocent look in her eyes, the girl sitting at the side suddenly asked.
"What could have happened? It was the appearance of mutated beasts that disturbed people's safety. We came here to do some investigations."
She smiled and waved at the leader with a face full of stubble,
He liked this girl named Julie very much.
It was rare for the little girl to ask, so he naturally opened his mouth and replied.
"Oh..."
The girl dragged out her voice and seemed to be in deep thought.
After a moment, she seemed to have thought of something and took the initiative to ask again, "Mutated beasts, are they those monsters?
"Right, how did you know that there were mutated beasts here?"
"This..."
The leader opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
But after a moment, he looked around and decisively shut his mouth again.
Although this was not a secret, it did not seem like it was something that these villagers should know.
"Is it hard to say?"
She lowered her head slightly and her voice became softer.
"Uh..."
The leader was stunned.
Jack, who was at the side, also shook his head helplessly and looked at Julie, who he did not see as his sister.
He smiled and replied, "There is nothing hard to say."
He pointed to the sky and said, "The spiritual satellite detected an unusual spiritual fluctuation here, so my superior sent us here to take a look."
Jack looked at the village chief and reminded him:
"Right, Village Chief, you should move out of the mountain as soon as possible. The mountain is no longer suitable for humans to live in."
...
In the depths of the canyon.
Lin Meng slowly raised his head and looked at the vast night sky.
He muttered to himself, "Spiritual energy satellite monitoring..."
The thick fog could not block Lin Meng's gaze.
He did not expect that satellites could become his problem.
Humans had actually developed a device to detect spiritual energy.
They even used this device as a satellite, launching it into outer space.
Lin Meng felt a little helpless.
Lin Meng had no choice in this matter.
If it was possible, he even wanted to use his branches to pierce through the sky and shoot down the satellite in outer space.
However, not to mention shooting into outer space, he couldn't even touch the sky.
All he could do was wait.
Wait for the humans to find him.
Then, they would transport him back to a secret base of the humans. If he was lucky, they wouldn't need to slice him up and study him...
It would only produce the essence of life every day.
Of course, if he was unlucky, they would cut off Lin Meng's limbs and study it in depth.
Thinking of this, Lin Meng's heart sank slightly.
Helpless.
He was really helpless.
Facing the sudden spiritual detection satellite, Lin Meng was at a loss of what to do.
He was just a willow tree.
A tree could not run under the sun.
In other words, there was nothing he could do except wait for the humans to arrive.
At this moment, they seemed to have noticed Lin Meng's heavy mood.
The peregrine falcons flew out of the nest.
"Hum! Hum!"
A series of cries seemed to be wailing.
Birds understood human nature.
They could understand Lin Meng's mood at this moment.
"I'm fine."
He stretched out his branches as if he wanted to tease the peregrine falcons but, halfway through, Lin Meng pulled them back.
He was not in the mood at all.
He only felt that a huge boulder was pressing on his chest.
"There should be a way, there should be..."
In his deep thoughts, he kept telling himself.
According to the current situation, the spirit energy detection satellite should only be able to detect whether the spirit energy in a certain area was abnormal and not accurately capture it.
Otherwise, it would not be these few people who came to investigate on the spot.
One had to know that with their small number of people, they were not enough for Lin Meng to whip them with a few branches.
If they used tree roots, Lin Meng would be even more able to strangle them to death in an instant.
And now, Lin Meng had to know how to avoid or counter the spiritual power detection device.
Of course, there was still one more thing to consider.
That was whether or not he could hide it from this batch of soldiers during the field inspection.
If he could hide it from these soldiers and counter the spiritual energy detection satellite, Lin Meng would be truly safe.
Thinking of this, Lin Meng's gaze shifted to Betty, who was not far away.
His tone was solemn.
"Betty, try to help me ask about the specific situation of the spiritual energy detection satellite."
Hearing the serious voice, Betty nodded seriously.
Her gaze was firm.
"Yes, Master."
After replying, Betty's consciousness entered the depths of her soul again.
...
Not long after, Betty bit her lips lightly as if she was saying something:
"The spiritual energy detection satellite is just a simple device to detect the concentration of spiritual energy in a place."
"However, based on the different concentrations of spiritual energy in this area, we can take some precautions in advance. For example, the reason why we are here on a field trip like now is firstly to evacuate the people, and secondly, to confirm whether the concentration of spiritual energy in this area is abnormal or whether a powerful mutated beast has been born."
Listening to Betty's voice, Lin Meng analyzed seriously.
"The concentration of spiritual energy in the region. In that case, they haven't confirmed my existence."
"Phew..."
Letting out a deep breath, Lin Meng relaxed.
Fortunately.
It wasn't the worst-case scenario.
If they weren't sure, then he still had a great chance.
However, the most important thing now was to consider how to counter the satellite spiritual energy detection in outer space.
After thinking about it, Lin Meng decided to start with the "stealth" that he used to sneak up on the golden eagle.
That time, he had held his breath and restrained most of his aura.
It made the golden eagle misjudge him.
If he could upgrade his ability or strengthen it...
Perhaps he could really avoid being discovered by the spiritual energy detection satellites.
Thinking of this, Lin Meng pulled his consciousness into his mind.
"Ability, I need this ability as my own, like a thick fog surrounding me at all times..."
