Chapter 122 Growth Period

"That's right, you've already seen the information."

As he spoke, Devon turned on the holographic projector in the conference room.

“Louis was fine before, but today he suddenly started experiencing excruciating pain. Then he unleashed a huge burst of energy, so we put him in the department’s safe house.”

The entire projection clearly showed Louis's journey from sudden, intense pain to the release of tremendous energy.

In the holographic projection, Louis was quietly reading a book in a bookstore. The book he was reading was titled "The Theory of Communicative Action."

Lin Xiyue could only say that she knew it was a book that looked very high-class, but she had never read it.

Then, in the video, Louis suddenly clutched his head, squatted down, and screamed in pain.

Veins bulged on his forehead, his eyes were wide open, and his pupils were bloodshot. His lips were clenched tightly together, and soon blood began to trickle from the corners of his mouth.

At this moment, people wearing FBI insignia walked in, and a group of them skillfully began to evacuate the crowd. They used some equipment to set up a barrier around Louis, isolating him.

"what--"

Not long after the barrier was set up, Louis let out a painful scream.

Then, a visible gray wave surged from his body and expanded rapidly, soon touching the barrier set up by the Federal Administration.

“Oh my god?!”

The staff who were leisurely chatting around were startled when they saw the energy fluctuations that looked like gray mist.

"What, what should we do?"

A clearly new employee stared in shock at the scene, looking somewhat bewildered as he asked the person next to him who was training him.

"Report it, and then..."

The reliable employee gave a reply and then picked up the machine he had used to set up the barrier.

After entering a password, he pressed a round red button.

"Drip-"

The instrument beeped once, and then the barrier began to close inward.

Soon, a sphere was formed, perfectly locking Louis and the gray, misty energy inside without any leakage.

"Alright. Just then, the orders from above arrived. Go and call the others; we'll move him away."

The reliable employee quickly completed the series of actions and then spoke to the intern who had been staring blankly at him.

"Oh well."

After finishing speaking, the intern quickly walked away into the distance.

Five minutes later.

A dozen or so staff members came to the sphere, and they quickly took out a small prop that looked like a flashlight.

"Alright, one, two, three. Let's go!"

The reliable employee also had a flashlight. After counting the number of people, he ordered everyone to work together.

As soon as the words were spoken, a white beam of light shone from everyone's flashlights, connecting with the sphere formed by the barrier.

When they worked together, the ball floated up perfectly.

They were then loaded onto a truck along with the others.

During this time, Louis inside the barrier sphere kept letting out painful growls, but his figure was completely obscured by the pervasive gray energy.

The holographic projection ended after everyone boarded the bus.

That's the whole story.

Devon turned off the holographic projection and spoke to Lin Xiyue and Moros.

"Originally, there was nothing wrong, but two minutes after he was locked up, all the aliens imprisoned here went crazy and attacked the exit. They never stopped unless they were completely unconscious, and even after they woke up, they would continue to attack the exit."

Dewen said, looking like he had a real headache, while secretly glancing at Lin Xiyue and Molos's expressions.

He could clearly see that Lin Xiyue was very surprised, but Molos looked uninterested, which really gave Dewen a headache.

"Ahem, I'll be blunt. We want to know if there's any connection between these things, and what we'll have to give up to get this information."

Zola, who had been silent until now, seemed unable to bear it any longer and spoke up.

She directly exposed what Dewen was trying to hide, stating her own request and asking about Lin Xiyue and Molos's requests.

She wanted a more straightforward exchange of benefits, which would also make her feel more at ease.

After all, if there really is a full-scale riot, your own squad will definitely be the first to rush in.

"Oh? Well then, I'll tell you the reason, and you can let us go to Red Maple Kingdom ahead of schedule."

Moros looked at Lin Xiyue and made this request.

"This one……"

"it is good."

Devon and Zola spoke at the same time, but said slightly different things.

However, after Zola glared at Devon, Devon reluctantly shut his mouth.

"Okay, I say."

Moros played with Lin Xiyue's hand and spoke casually.

"Louis is a hybrid of human and alien. His human part is already an adult, but his alien part, due to the long-term lack of energy while constantly on the shuttle, remains in its infancy."

"After he came to the human world, his body spontaneously and frantically absorbed energy, which is why he is about to enter his growth period."

"He is currently very low in energy, so he subconsciously commands the food around him to come."

Meros explained the reason why Louis did this.

"Food? You mean those alien races?"

Zola asked a crucial question, and it was clear she had something on her mind.

"Yes. 'Inferior alien races,' 'intermediate alien races,' and the like are names you humans gave us, and we just used them too. However, the inferior alien races you speak of are the ones we raise as food."

"When a cub is about to enter its growth period, it will be extremely lacking in energy, so it will use brainwaves to command lower alien races to come and replenish its energy."

Meros had no idea that saying this would cause such a upheaval in the values ​​of the people in front of him.

"Then why is he in so much pain?"

Lin Xiyue listened to the whole thing and then asked the question out of curiosity.

"Because he's currently experiencing what you humans call 'forcing growth.' He should have entered his growth period much earlier, but due to malnutrition, he's remained in his infancy. Now that he can absorb energy, he's suffering. Hmm, similar to growing pains?"

Because it was Lin Xiyue who asked, Moros replied in even more detail.

However, after answering, he gave Lin Xiyue a suggestive look.

Lin Xiyue hesitated for a long time, but still went over and kissed him.
