"Boss... this guy seems to have really gone mad," the medic muttered.

Hank's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth.

"Who cares if he's really stupid or not, just tie him up in a restraint suit and take him up! He's a top-level target, let the research department deal with that headache!"

"What a damn bad luck! We didn't even get a hair's breadth, and all we got was a moron to take back with us!"

Hank grumbled as he put away his gun, and led his men, escorting the still-talking Upside Down, out of the basement, which was cleaner than a face.

……

At the same time.

The Divine Tree area.

This place has been completely transformed into a huge construction site.

Ron, holding a freshly brewed cup of coffee, stood atop a tall shipping container, looking at the scene before him with smug satisfaction.

"Hurry! Second group of telekinetics, wrap the soil around the roots even tighter! Don't damage the main root system!"

A leader at the scene was giving loud instructions over a walkie-talkie.

More than thirty people with special abilities, dressed in specially made uniforms, were gathered around the tree.

They pushed forward with both hands, their foreheads covered in sweat.

The immense telekinetic forces intertwined, forming a vast, invisible network.

"Rumble..."

A sudden, earth-shaking tremor ensued.

That bare, yet mysteriously aura-filled sacred tree.

Along with the massive mound of earth beneath it, which is tens of meters deep.

These ability users pulled it straight out of the ground!

The scene was spectacular, as if a small hill was suspended in mid-air.

"It's so wonderful..."

Ron watched the divine tree slowly rise into the sky, his fat face trembling slightly with excitement.

He raised his coffee cup as if toasting a priceless treasure.

"This is the ladder of power, this is the key to Behemoth's dominance of the future!"

"Those narrow-minded Easterners are simply short-sighted! Only the combination of science and miracles is the true path to victory!"

Ron felt incredibly relieved.

What's the big deal about Zhang Tianyi taking some treasure?

Compared to this divine tree that can mass-produce superhumans, those things are nothing!

In the end, Ron had the last laugh in this game!

Just as Ron was fantasizing about getting promoted and getting a raise in the future, and trampling the other directors under his feet.

"Beep!"

The encrypted communicator in his pocket suddenly started ringing urgently.

Ron frowned and took out his communicator.

"Hey, Gade, what's up? I'm already loading the truck, everything's going smoothly."

On the other end of the phone, Gade's voice had lost its usual composure, and even carried a hint of barely concealed urgency.

"Ron! Forget about the details! Speed ​​things up immediately! Even if it means cutting off part of the roots, we have to take off right now!"

"What's wrong?" Ron's heart tightened.

"Our satellites have detected signals from an unidentified fleet!"

Gaidet said very quickly:

"The people in DC have made a move! They're closing in on Nathan Island at full speed!"

"They are expected to be within 15 minutes at most, when they will be within range of live ammunition!"

Upon hearing "DC," Ron's coffee cup jerked violently.

DC!

That's their mortal enemy!

If those mad dogs get onto the island, it will be a fierce battle to get this tree out!

"These bastards!"

Ron cursed through gritted teeth, his composure vanishing.

He jumped directly off the container and yelled at the commander below:

"Boost!"

"All transport helicopters must immediately lower their slings! Docking must be completed within three minutes!"

"Everyone, abandon all other search missions on the island, retreat to cover the divine tree's ascent!"

With Ron's command.

The entire Sacred Tree Square instantly erupted in chaos.

The massive transport helicopter, accompanied by strong winds, lowered its altitude, and the thick slings clattered onto the support frame.

"Mr. Ron, we have to go!"

Several fully armed bodyguards escorted Ron as he quickly ran towards a private evacuation helicopter.

As Ron ran, he glanced back at the divine tree that was now hanging in mid-air and slowly moving toward the sea.

An excited, distorted smile appeared on his chubby face.

Chapter 296 The Division of Spoils! Bao'er is making instant noodles with a pure gold wine bottle?

Beijing, Xishan Manor.

The central air conditioning was blowing out cool air, completely blocking out the sweltering heat outside in August.

The huge living room now resembles a large trading market.

"Splash splash splash~"

Zhang Chulan untied several food pouches and dumped them all onto the ground.

Gold coins, raw diamonds, herbs exuding a strange medicinal fragrance, and various thick ancient books were immediately piled up into a glittering little mountain.

"We're rich! We're rich!"

Zhang Chulan knelt on the carpet, casually picked up a handful of gold coins, and listened to the crisp clinking sound, grinning foolishly.

"Master, on this business trip, not only did we not spend any money, we also raided their homes."

If this business could become a regular occurrence, our Celestial Master's Mansion could ring the bell on NASDAQ next year!

Zhang Tianyi sprawled on the oversized sofa as if she had no bones.

He was holding a chilled green coconut with a straw in his hand, sipping it casually.

Hearing Zhang Chulan's flattery, he didn't even fully open his eyelids, but just kicked the pile of glittering gold things.

"Alright, stop being so spineless. Gather up the gold bars and stuff them into your card as our team's operating funds."

Zhang Tianyi spat out the straw, sat up straight, and clapped her hands:

"Come on, everyone, stop just standing around watching. Line up and let's divide the spoils!!"

This suggestion of dividing the spoils left the group of people standing at the edge of the living room looking at each other in bewilderment.

Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing exchanged a glance, neither daring to move forward.

The main purpose of their trip was for one of them to act as a human form of transportation.

Although they did contribute something in the tavern, it was nothing compared to the nuclear-level clearing operation by the Second Master.

"Old Qing, this has nothing to do with us, right?"

Wang Ye lowered his voice and rubbed his still a little sore shoulders: "They're dividing up the spoils, let's not go and join in their shameless fun."

Zhuge Qing nodded in agreement: "That makes sense. I'm already very satisfied that we were able to return unscathed."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Tianyi's gaze swept across the crowd and accurately locked onto the two guys who were trying to shrink back.

"Xiao Wang, Xiao Zhuge, what are you two hiding behind the door for? Trying to sneak out and eat alone?"

Zhang Tianyi beckoned: "Come here."

The two had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward, forcing a dry smile on their faces.

Without saying a word, Zhang Tianyi bent down and rummaged through the pile of "junk" a couple of times.

"Snapped."

A pile of old-looking sheepskin scrolls, along with a few chunks of tree roots in a transparent, airtight jar, were tossed onto the coffee table.

"One of you practices Feng Hou Qi Men, and the other tinkers with Wu Hou Qi Men. You both use your brains a lot, so you're physically weak."

Zhang Tianyi pointed to the sealed containers, speaking as casually as if he were handing over two pounds of cabbage:

"This is the heart of the earth vein vine that has grown underground on Nathan Island for thousands of years, and it is most effective in strengthening the body's foundation and nourishing the vital energy."

Take it home, slice it, and soak it in water to drink; that way, I won't be out of breath after just a few steps next time I'm carrying a sedan chair.

Then he pointed to the parchment scrolls:

"These are some alchemical scrolls that you have taken. They seem to be the original ones. As the saying goes, 'The stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade.'"

Take this and look through it, see if you can combine it with your Qimen Dunjia (a form of divination). If you don't understand it, just use it to prop up a table corner.

Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing were stunned.
