Glan Natural Science Academy Chapter 189: Contaminated area
Seven days later.
Blue sky, white clouds, deserted ancient mountains, primitive ethnic groups, and various mysterious legends.
Along the way, apart from the twilight elves and the harpy, Leiluo has also seen many alien races that are not common in human territory, and has gradually adapted to the breath melody of the Hengduan Mountains.
However.
As Lei Luo and the old monster get closer and closer to their destination, the surrounding atmosphere seems to gradually change.
With a serious face, Lei Luo came to an ancient tree.
Lei Luo stared at the ancient wood, the cancerous scabs mixed with pale blue and pale.
As Leiluo’s physique of vegetation spirits is no longer able to hear the voice of the vegetation as he keeps getting closer to the mutation area, these polluted plants seem to be suffering tremendously and have a deep malice towards themselves. .
The color of the scab on the ancient wood is constantly changing, like water waves, which is very strange.
Reluo scraped off some powder with a scalpel.
"Master, there is more and more variation in the surrounding forest, but it is not a deformed variation, but a variation that tends to another kind of ecological environment."
Corleone held a red sour fruit in his hand.
This is this sour fruit, which has grown a small mouth and swallowed a small lizard, only its hind limbs and tail are exposed, and it is still outside.
"It is indeed more and more like the environment of the night, Jie Jie Jie, this is just a polluted outer radiation area."
Leilo took a deep breath.
"Blood the Evil God, how could there be such a power? How could such a vast forest undergo such a large-scale mutation?"
The old monster threw the sour fruit in his hand to the ground.
The microbial activity in the soil seems to have become extremely alarming. The speed is visible to the naked eye. The fruit is like melting ice, gradually disappearing.
"Don’t use a human’s eyes to look at the ecosystem outside the Star Screen. The Star Screen is just a greenhouse developed by humans for survival. The world is far from simple as you think. Scholars know very little about this world. Even the understanding of night places is limited to biological specimens on the surface. Their internal ecological laws form a self-contained system, which is completely different from humans."
"Got it."
In these days, the old monster's teachings about Lei Luo have gained a lot from Lei Luo, especially in the cognition and anatomy of the essence of living things, as well as the cognition of the ecological food chain.
"Since I received the specimens and letters of the old witch doctor from the troll, I was basically sure that this place was an invasion by blood. Since we humans can make crusades again and again, those creatures colluded with wizards and invaded in turn. Human beings are also taken for granted."
Leilo took a deep breath.
Each crusade is a faith propaganda of the church, and the power of all mankind in the place where the bright empire of Aurora gathers stars.
In order to gain the support of the believers, the church has been preaching the evil and terrible of the night in various ways, rendering it as a representative of the devil.
But with time after expedition, the scholars of the Astral Land have gradually learned some of the essence.
They are like extinct goblins.
Born after the cataclysm of this planet, after stubbornly adapting to the environment of this world, it multiplied, and just like the human race ruling many foreign races in the land of the star screen, there are countless places where the blood-borne demon ruled by night. Qing's various biological groups.
But it is different from the way humans treat many alien races.
The way the blood spawns treat alien races is just like the way that Quran fairies treat ancient tribes and humans treat livestock. It is completely captive and deprived. That is the naked + naked squeeze and plunder of the food chain ecosystem.
Although scholars know very little about this world because of the barrier between the land of night and the vast sea and the rule under the church, scholars speculate that the creatures of this world are likely to follow the world based on the land of night and the Quran civilization Cruel rules of the most primitive food chain.
The weak will feed on the strong, the natural selection will compete with each other, and the fittest will survive.
There are no so-called civilization and moral constraints, only the cruelty and wildness of the most instinctive creatures.
Others are places!
Reluo followed the old monster and continued to walk forward.
Along the way, the surrounding ecosystem is undergoing tremendous changes, and creatures are gradually becoming primitive, cruel, and bloody.
In the sky, a red mist gradually began to float.
It's like the first floor of the Sun Moon Magic Eye Pyramid, full of unknown depression, it's hard to breathe.
At this point, the shape of the creature is completely different from the Hengduan Mountains.
The sound of fighting came from ahead.
That is an old pine tree commonly seen in the Hengduan Mountains, but at this moment the leaves of this pine tree have turned blood red. What's more terrifying is that its branches are covered with animal heads, and there are even a few The head of a human mercenary!
"The Fear Tree!?"
Reluo exclaimed in exclamation.
According to legend, more than three thousand years ago, an ancient dead tree in the depths of the thorn forest mutated.
One night, slaughtered a small tribe it sheltered clean, and incorporated their heads into their bodies.
This Fear Tree has the ability to move, constantly looting and killing all the intelligent creatures it sees, using their heads as their organs, and gradually evolving incredibly weird and powerful powers, which have become spread in the forest of thorns. The widest nightmare.
However.
The fear tree in front of me is only about 30 meters high, far less terrifying than in the legend.
"My mom loves me the most, and you will be a part of my mom too!"
On the branches of the Fear Tree, the words and expressions of the human head still seem to be as natural as before, with a weird tone, but his consciousness has changed.
A group of mercenaries are fighting this fear tree.
"What kind of monster is this!"
The archer was horrified, shooting arrows continuously.
"Your Excellency, what shall we do?"
The captain of the mercenary squad is a rough man. His epee slashes at the branch and throws a torch with his other hand.
On the surface of the tree of fear, a layer of red liquid was secreted, which was as stinky as blood, or just blood. In the chaos, no one had the mind to observe these details. The key point was that it was not afraid of flames at all.
It is not so much a tree as it is a monster that looks like a tree!
This is a standard mercenary squad, two epee warriors, one archer, one scout assassin, and one magician.
The magician is a 20** year old girl. Although she still maintains her calmness and reason, her face is also pale.
Waving the magic wand in his hand, a firebird flew out.
If there is no dark red mist around it, it seems to have a certain inhibitory effect on the flame energy. After the firebird fell on the giant tree, only a little spark remained.
"Don't be entangled by it. Those heads are the humans that it swallows. It can read the thoughts of food and become a part of it. It is probably a mutant tree monster contaminated by something."
"This monster, I don't want my head to grow on it, I would rather die!"
"Ah..."
The female archer was caught by a branch and hung in the air.
She screamed, struggling, grabbing the bark of her ankle, and sticking out red blood vessels that looked like strands of hair, piercing her body.
"Kill me, kill me! Oh, I don’t want to be such a monster!!"
The female bow and arrow screamed in despair.
At this moment!
Everyone stiffened inexplicably.
As if falling into a bottomless ice cave.
Only the most monotonous black and white are left in the world.
Time seems to be slowing down. In mid-air, the dripping blood speed is getting slower and slower. Completely swallowed.
Time seems to stand still, and the frozen soul loses the ability to think.
A rickety figure slowly walked towards the strange tree.
The mud under the feet of the rickety old man, the dark red tentacles like tobacco, was wiped out with a "puff".
He slowly raised his palm,
The hand covered with dark and gloomy light stretched out to the strange tree trunk covered with stinky dark red viscous liquid.
Gudong, Gudong, Gudong...
When the skinny old palm retracted, he grabbed a heart.
No.
To be precise, this is a worm's nest, but it will beat like a heart.
"Jie Jie Jie Jie."
Ghostly laughter, a violent pinch of the thin and old palm, a "bang" of the heart exploded, and countless red insects the size of rice grains were scattered in a dense number.
These bugs, it seems that some are not well adapted to the outside air, after a little wriggling on the ground, they stiffened and turned into stone!
Affected by this.
The dark red, viscous, fishy liquid on the surface of the Fear Tree, like melted ice cream, is constantly flowing.
The vivid human face on the branches also turned into a distorted old man at a speed visible to the naked eye, with a faintly husky voice like suffocation, with more outgass and less inhalations.
Boom.
The female archer hanging in midair fell to the ground.
"His..."
Everyone looked at the old monster in disbelief, and took a breath, their eyes a little confused.
Leilo came next to the female archer, and in her panic and frightened, the palm of the black smoke of the Moon Shadow Wraith was wrapped around her, and placed it on her ankle.
"You are infected."
Reluo's voice is calm.
The other members of this mercenary group looked over, only the captain of the mercenary was constantly thanking the old Corleone monster.
The female archer is very young.
Looks younger than Lei Luo, only ten ** years old. It is very uncomfortable to be caught by Lei Luo's ankle like this, but fear overcomes shyness, and a touch of shame appears in the trembling pale cheeks, linen The blue eyes under the yellow wave and short hair looked at Lei Luo with expectation.
The female magician said anxiously: "The parasite infection, is it malignant? What should I do?"
Lei Luo thought for a while. The power of the sun is insignificant as the most precise scalpel. The pale golden claws are only the size of a nail clipper, which is almost negligible compared to those magic hills. First of all, he cuts off the inside of the female archer. Blood vessel.
"Master, what are these parasites? How to deal with them?"
Reluo shouted.
Corleone glanced at the female archer blindly.
"Just give her a bottle of natural life energy medicine. Natural energy is fatal and highly toxic to these blood derivatives, but be careful about excretion. After contact with natural energy, they will undergo some energy changes and harden."
"I have gold coins, please help me!"
The girl hurriedly took out a gold coin and a dozen silver coins, looked at Lei Luo imploringly, and grabbed Lei Luo's palm.
"Cough cough."
A flash in Lei Luo's hand~IndoMTL.com~ Xiaobai and Lili appear.
"Where is this?"
The gap between Xiaobai and the strange environment around him is instinctively uncomfortable
Leilo laughed, and took out a copper coin and a reagent.
"Tell Lili to pee a little into this little bottle, and this copper coin will be yours."
"Huh? You are right!"
Xiao Bai jumped up excitedly when he heard the copper coins.
In a short while, Leiluo accepted the gold and silver coins from the female archer, and Xiao Bai, who was holding the copper coin, returned to the space bracelet with excitement, and kept talking about nine butterscotch.
The people who witnessed this scene couldn't help but open their mouths wide.
The female archer looked a little ugly, and wanted to drink the urine of that little thing?
But after seeing the Fear Tree, she didn't dare to hesitate anymore and swallowed the potion in one bite.
