Chapter 499: The Strange Plant of Enigma
In the jungle, a team of ten mercenaries is advancing rapidly???.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, right in front of the canyon. I've seen it before, and I'm sure it's the kind of high-order alien plants that the guild gives. A thin mercenary hurried to the people around him.
"Really, Hou Zhen, you can't be mistaken, right? That's one of the high-level alien plants marked by the association. One Alien Plant's foot can be exchanged for ten Nutritional Pills, how can it be discovered by you so easily?" Another tall, dark-looking man looked at him suspiciously, but his footsteps did not slow down in the slightest. He is Zhu Hong, the captain of this team of small mercenaries.
"How could I be wrong? I'm sure it's really the association's album that has given me a different plant. It's a very secluded place, and I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't accidentally fallen into the canyon last time. It's a pity that the association hasn't issued a picture album yet, and I had no idea that that inconspicuous little thing could be so precious!"
"Okay, okay, I'm sure you're right. Let's hurry up and get over. If we can really collect this alien plant successfully this time, we will have hope for our advancement. There are exactly ten people in our team, and ten pills of nutrition pills can be exactly one pill per person. Hou Zhen, you will really become the hero of our fierce squad by then. Zhu Hong hurriedly appeased him.
He just said it casually, and he didn't really doubt Hou Zhen's words. In fact, even if Hou Zhenzhen was wrong, they would at most run for nothing, and there would be no big loss. However, if what Hou Zhen said was true, then they would make a lot of money. Ten pills of Nutrition Pill is enough for each of them to advance to the next level.
"By the way, are the jade shovels and jade boxes ready?" Zhu Hong asked Gao Chenggong, another member of the team.
"Hehe, not just one, but twenty. Anyway, these jade shovels and jade boxes are not worth much, so I simply bought a few more, in case I encounter a piece of task alien plant, then don't we send it?" Gao Chenggong is a short man, and his smile is a little obscene. Looking at a book? ยท
"Well, not bad, good!" Zhu Hong praised.
Although Gao Chenggong is not good-looking and short, he is really meticulous and thoughtful in his work. There are some problems that he didn't think of, Gao Chenggong will help him think of them, and it is in vain that he tried his best to accept him back then.
Traveling all the way, the ten people soon arrived at the small canyon in Hou Zhen's memory.
Thanks to the recent surge in the number of mercenaries and guards on missions, the path in the jungle that had been flooded with weeds has been reopened, otherwise it would have been enough for this small ten-person team to choke on just opening the way.
"This is the place, just below. Next time, I'll accidentally fall from here. You see, here and here, these are the marks I left when I slid down. Hou Zhen excitedly pointed to a scratch on the edge of the cliff and shouted.
Zhu Hong took a closer look, and sure enough, there was a gap on the edge of the cliff, and it could be seen that it was cut by the mecha sword. It seems that Hou Zhen is indeed not mistaken.
"Okay, let's get ready to go down. Zhu Hong made a quick decision.
Thermal equipment cannot be used in the jungle to prevent energy fluctuations from attracting attacks from alien beasts. Fortunately, each of them prepared a suction cup in advance and could follow the cliff into the canyon below.
The cliff wall is not very smooth, and there are no plants. From time to time, one or two unknown plants would stick out of the cracks in the stones, and the fierce team couldn't help but take out their scanners to scan and compare.
Unfortunately, the scanner's light is always green, indicating that this is not a valuable alien given by the union.
The cliff was not too high, and the fierce team soon reached the small canyon below the bottom of the cliff.
Hou Zhen went straight to the place where he remembered the strange plant.
"Whoosh~"
Suddenly, a white light flashed in front of his eyes. A small humanoid creature, the size of a fist, flashed in front of him like an arrow, scurryed into a small clump of grass in front of him, and vanished.
"What's that?"
The people of the fierce squad were startled, and suddenly became nervous, "Boom Boom" can open the elemental shield of the elemental shield, open the body protection true qi with the body protection true qi, and have nothing, just pull out the mecha sword and laser sword that he carries with him.
The Fierce Squad is only the lowest-level mercenary team, and only the captain is a fifth-order high-level martial artist, and there is also a fifth-order early water ability. The others were all below the fifth order, and two of them were only third-order martial artists. Hou Zhen and Gao Chenggong are a little better, but they are only fourth-order high-level.
"It's like a little doll!"
There is a team member who is a fourth-order ability with eye mutation, although the white light just now is very fast, but he still clearly captures the appearance of the white light with eye mutation.
Eye mutation is also an ability, but it's an extremely junk ability, except for a better eye and a little farther vision, it has little attack power. Therefore, although the eye mutation is also an anomaly, its status is basically the same as that of ordinary people, and few mercenary teams are willing to accept such garbage into their team. Unexpectedly, the fierce mercenary team actually took in a person with a mutated eye.
"Little doll? No way! Where did the little doll come from in the jungle? Shi Xiong, are you dazzled? There is nothing wrong with your ability, right?" Gao Chenggong instinctively retorted, thinking that Shi Xiong, the strange person with mutated eyes, should have seen it wrong.
Hearing Gao Chenggong's words, Shi Xiong's face immediately turned red, and his voice stammered with excitement. He can accept insults from others, but he cannot accept others questioning his abilities. He only has the advantage of good eyes, and if he can't even keep this advantage, he is really the same as an ordinary person.
"No..... You can't go wrong, really..... What a small ..... Little Doll!I'm ..... I..... I saw it, ran there..... Got underground!" When he said the last sentence, Shi Xiong's own voice also lowered.
How could it be that it got underground? In the barren mountains and wilderness, it was extremely unusual to see a little doll, but this little doll that seemed to be a human actually went underground, could it be that this child was born with an awakening of the earth-based ability? Is this a refuge technique?
Or is it really my ability that is wrong?
Gao Chenggong was about to speak, but was stopped by Zhu Hong.
"Okay, don't talk about it. Shi Xiong, do you see clearly where that little doll is going underground? And Hou Zhen, where is the task you said about the alien plant? The place here is so big, let's quickly split up to find it. Zhu Hong stopped everyone's possible disputes and began to assign tasks.
Who knows, Hou Zhen and Shi Xiong ran in one direction at the same time, that is, the direction in which the white light disappeared.
Push aside the grass, and inside is a tiny plant. The leaves lay sparsely on the ground, but a tall long stem sticks out of the plant, and on the long stem are a few small red fruits, which look bright red.
Zhu Hong immediately took out the scanner and swept it at the plant.
"Di ~ Di Di Di ~, Di ~ Di ~, found heterophytic ginseng grass, it is recommended to collect. Found heterophytic ginseng grass, it is recommended to collect!"
The scanner, which has always been green, has lived up to expectations this time, and finally changed color, and it is the highest level of red light.
Zhu Hong was overjoyed, Hou Zhen really remembered correctly, this was indeed a different plant.
"Quick, dig it out quickly!" Zhu Hong immediately put away the scanner and put it in his backpack.
This is indeed a different plant on the mercenary guild's task list, and the level is quite high. It seems that their fierce squad is going to be lucky this time.
Gao Chenggong also shut up and said no more, and immediately took out ten delicate small jade shovels from his backpack.
The free album distributed by the union said that when collecting different values, you must use a jade shovel to dig up. If you use metal utensils to collect them, it is very likely that the value of the alien plants will be greatly reduced, and it may be discarded. A high-level alien plant that they had finally discovered couldn't be destroyed in this small detail.
Ten people were extremely excited to carefully dig up the soil around the alien plant, and in order not to damage the roots, some people directly used their fingers to gently pick off the soil layer.
Although the exposed part of this plant on the ground is very small, I didn't expect its roots to be buried quite deeply. Ten people dug two feet deep before the white roots of the alien plants were slowly revealed.
"Ah~, Mom, what the hell, why is this little doll underground?"
When the entire root system was dug out, the fierce team suddenly realized that this was the root of the plant, and this was clearly a white and chubby fist-sized baby!
