Chapter 535 Good Intention
Holding the potted plant in both hands, Rocket looked very careful. Although Groot is now resurrected, he is still just a small branch and he still needs to be taken care of. However, as a potted little Groot, there is no self-awareness to it.
After leaving Spaceship, he happily twisted his not-so-thick branches. It seems that the environment of this primitive planet is indeed very suitable for Little Groot’s Recovery.
“Uh~ uh~ uh~ uh~ uh~…then~~is~~live~~~pots~~potted plants!~~~” After seeing what Rocket was holding out, Deadpool relied on his powerful Recovery ability and he had already recovered some action and he still couldn’t help but shout in surprise.
Boom!
However, when Deadpool stammered out this sentence, Lin Rui, who was next to him, had already slapped him and closed his mouth. Then, Lin Rui was also very surprised to observe the live branches in the pot that Rocket held.
Of course, Lin Rui knew that this moving branch was Groot, the tree man in Guardian of the Galaxy, but Lin Rui was still very surprised to see such a magical scene with his own eyes.
Phoo~
Rocket held little Groot and finally walked slowly towards Lin Rui and Star Lord’s side. After placing the potted plant in his hand on the ground, Rocket glanced at Deadpool lying next to him and finally ignored him.
“This is our partner, he is a tree man from Flora Colossus Species, his name is…”
“I AM GROOT!” Just when the Star-Lord introduced little Groot to Lin Rui, little Groot who had been placed on the ground yelled out loudly. However, the little Groot yelled out in its own language and not in English, so Lin Rui did not know what it was yelling about.
“Hehe, he is introducing himself. His English name is Groot.” After the little Groot finished shouting, Star-Lord followed and explained in English.
“Hello Groot, I am very glad to meet you.” Hearing the introduction of Star-Lord, Lin Rui looked at the little Groot and greeted him with a smile on his face.
In Guardian of the Galaxy, Groot’s character does not seem to have much power, but he is more popular than a protagonist like Star-Lord. Because Groot’s cuteness and his extremely loyal character are the highlights of everyone’s liking for him, not to mention that he has become so cute after getting smaller.
Phoo~
Just when Lin Rui greeted Groot with a smile on his face, little Groot seemed to understand what Lin Rui was talking about, and even stretched out one of his branches towards Lin Rui. The thin branches stretched out in front of Lin Rui, and finally stopped by Lin Rui.
“En? This is…” Noting little Groot’s movements, Lin Rui looked at Star-Lord suspiciously.
“Haha, it seems that Groot likes you very much, he is asking for a handshake!” Star-Lord who had seen Groot’s action was also a little dazed, but he quickly explained when he saw Lin Rui’s expression.
However, although Star-Lord explained to Lin Rui this way, he himself was a little confused. Groot and its species are indeed a very kind race, but they don’t get close to a stranger casually. Is there something weird about this fellow in front of him? However, Groot did show kindness to him so he should not be suspicious.
“Haha, I also like Groot!” Hearing Star Lord’s explanation, Lin Rui smiled and stretched out his hand.
Then, the small branch that Groot stretched over was wrapped around the index finger of Lin Rui’s outstretched palm. After wrapping Lin Rui’s index finger a few times, Groot finally tapped Lin Rui’s palm with the tip of the branch.
After Groot’s branches touched him, Lin Rui suddenly had a special feeling in his heart, it was as if he felt the vague thoughts of a simple child. At the moment when Groot’s tree tip was in the palm of his hand, Lin Rui only felt that a coolness quickly spread from the palm of his hand to his whole body.
The exhaustion of having experienced ultra-long-distance teleportation and fighting monsters in the forest had disappeared at this point.
“Thank you, Groot.” Feeling the changes in his body, Lin Rui looked at the little Groot in front of him and thanked him sincerely.
“En? Did Groot established a Synesthesia with you!” Rocket Raccoon was a little surprised when Groot took the initiative to show kindness to Lin Rui. After noticing that Groot helped Lin Rui relieve his fatigue, he finally couldn’t help but speak.
Synesthesia is a way for a series of special lifeforms to share the feelings of other lifeforms. Groot’s species belong to this special kind of lifeforms who are capable of synaesthesia, but each synaesthesia consumes its own mental power that is not too strong.
Not to mention helping the other party to eliminate the negative state of the body during synesthesia. This is not an ordinary show of kindness.
“Synesthesia, what is that?” Lin Rui expressed his bewildered expression when he heard Rocket Raccoon’s words.
“Mirage Knight, are you really a complete terrestrial? Do you have the gene from Groot’s species or similar other genes?” When Lin Rui was confused, Star-Lord also asked with a surprised look on his face.
Little Groot is now growing up, and he already established Synesthesia for a stranger that he had met for the first time, which makes Star-Lord and Rocket feel a little bit confused.
Therefore, Star-Lord now doubts whether the fellow in front of him is really a complete earthling. Star-Lord himself is from the earth but isn’t he also an alien hybrid, so he still thinks that it is very possible that Lin Rui is also a hybrid.
“I’m really a complete earthling! And, would I even look like this after being mixed with Groot’s race? Not anyone can be with…” Lin Rui replied in shock when he heard Star Lord’s words. In the middle of speaking, Lin Rui suddenly stopped talking, almost telling the story of Star-Lord.
“That’s right, even if you only have a few genes of Groot’s race then you really won’t be like this anymore.” Hearing Lin Rui’s answer, Star-Lord carefully looked at Lin Rui up and down several times before seriously speaking.
“However, why does Groot have a sympathetic relationship with you? This is not normal!” Although Lin Rui does not have the gene of the tree people, Groot’s performance is also very strange.
“Groot, why did you do that? Don’t you know that doing so will slow down your recovery?” Getting no answer from Lin Rui, Rocket looked at Groot and asked seriously.
“I AM GROOT.”
Huhu~
Repeating his name again, the branches that Groot had wrapped around Lin Rui’s fingers slowly loosened. However, Groot did not retract the branch after releasing Lin Rui’s hand but stretched towards Lin Rui’s waist. Finally, this branch of Groot clearly pointed to the position of Lin Rui’s belt.
“I AM GROOT!” Little Groot exclaimed with excitement while pointing to the position of Lin Rui’s belt.
