Chapter 163: Death Worm
"Everybody take a break. "When we arrived at a small clearing, everyone sat down and rested in place.
"Come, drink some water. "The weight of Qin Chuan and Mu Wei is on Qin Chuan's body.
Mu Wei took the kettle and swallowed it in small sips, the weather was too cold, and there was still hot water in the kettle, which was a very happy thing.
"I didn't expect you to last so long. Looking at this little girl with a very ruddy face because she was trying to keep up with the footsteps of adults, Qin Chuan said sincerely.
"I've been able to keep going. Mu Wei screwed the lid of the kettle shut and handed it back to Qin Chuan.
"Okay, I'll see. Qin Chuan nodded.
"Don't forget, what you promised me. Mu Wei glanced at Qin Chuan seriously.
"Of course. Qin Chuan nodded, "If you can persevere." “
After a 20-minute break, the team continued to move, the resources on the road in the first few hours have basically gone through countless excavations and searches, in these places, only by going deep into the forest, can you find something valuable, of course, danger and opportunity coexist.
They are fighting, with 3 vine trees with countless spikes, thousands of vines are looking for them and swinging at them, each of them is the thickness of an adult's thigh, it is foreseeable that being hit by such vines on the body, if you don't die, your internal organs will be broken, fortunately, those present are not ordinary people, they have been genetically modified by the special virus of the end times, and have a relatively strong body, but it is not easy to be beaten.
The vines were constantly being cut down, and the humans were dodging, jumping, and attacking, and the people were targeting the fruits that grew from the main branches of what they called the vine fruit tree. The size of the fruit is about the same size as the pre-apocalyptic watermelon, with the tough skin of a grapefruit, the flesh is delicious and juicy, and it has the effect of healing and strengthening the body, and the sales in the base are very good, and the price is also very good.
For this. People are willing to fight for a better life.
The young Mu Wei was not treated preferentially by the vine fruit tree because she was young. Whip-like vines struck her mercilessly.
At this time, Mu Wei showed her amazing fighting talent, after 3 months of training. Her potential was fully realized, and the softness and flexibility of her body were beyond the reach of adults, and she was able to dodge the attacks of the vines at every fraction of a second. Although he may not have the strength to cut through the vines, he is very flexible in self-preservation.
Mu Wei was the first to pass through the attack and defense network formed by the vines. People near the roots of trees.
She nimbly climbed up the branches of the vine fruit tree, and when she got here, the vine's attacks became scarce, and most of them attacked. It's all external, so, here. Just be vigilant at all times.
When the first vine fruit arrived, Mu Wei frowned at its weight. Dropping it on the ground, she began to pick a second vine fruit, which was not slow, and when the others noticed it, they were relieved to fend off the vines and buy her more time.
3 trees, only a dozen fruits, this is the normal yield of vine fruit trees, every month. Loading all the fruits into the net with the small net she carried, and then slowly dragging it out, Qin Chuan and another uncle escorted her and opened the way, everyone got out of the battle circle smoothly, and also picked up a lot of vines, these are good fuels, a few can burn for a day, and it is a must-have for home travel for night lighting and heating.
Everyone continues to move forward, the previous battle is just an appetizer, and the battle below has just begun.
Soon, everyone came across an ironclad pig that came out to forage, which may have been based on a wild boar or domestic pig, but now, it was wearing armor, was huge, and had amazing attack power. Everyone rushed up and cooperated with each other to attack the ironclad pig.
In this attack, Lin Xiaoyu, Qin Chuan, and Mu Wei were just watching from the sidelines, after all, the cooperation of the search team was long-term, and they couldn't join rashly.
After 20 minutes of fighting, the ironclad pig was taken down by them and put into the space. Everyone tidied up the battlefield, and Lin Xiaoyu and another light ability person treated the injured person, and then everyone continued to move forward. Everyone knew that they still had a long way to go, to participate in more battles, and that such a small achievement was far from enough for their needs.
"It's a berry grove. "After another half an hour of walking, someone made a new discovery.
"Wait, don't go over. Someone stopped the slightly agitated crowd. A small grove of low bushes was right in front of them, full of red strawberry-sized fruits, which were so sweet and expensive that they were hard to see in the market, and everyone was almost excited.
"It's not too far from the main road we just walked, so how can there be no one to pick it?"
"Whatever, this kind of roadless place, maybe no one has passed through here, so today is our lucky day. “
"It's better to be careful, check the surroundings first,"
"You're too careful, too. “
"It's okay to be careful. “
At the insistence of the search captain, everyone went around this small berry grove to check, and after a circle, everyone didn't seem to find anything.
"I'll just say, it's just that we're lucky, and there's danger wherever we are. “
"Alright, let's go in. "Everybody went inside.
"Third brother, look at that stone, it looks like a skull. Mu Wei pulled Qin Chuan's sleeve and said.
"Where?" Qin Chuan looked in the direction of Mu Wei's finger, and sure enough, under the berry tree, there was a skull, a real skull.
"Everyone, stop!" Qin Chuan shouted. A few people next to him naturally heard Mu Wei's words, and they also discovered the abnormality.
"Wang Ming, take out that skull and take a look. The captain shouted.
The man named Wang Ming was a wind-based ability, the wind rose from the ground, and the gentle wind lifted the skull slightly, flying in their direction, and at the same time, there was also a half-cut spine, of course, it couldn't stand the force, and it broke immediately, and the skull flew to them, and no one wanted to pick it up, so it spun itself in the air.
The skull was still clinging to the flesh that had dried up, and at this temperature, it was called a skeleton, more like a dried corpse.
"Everyone should be careful, the corpse is hidden under the berry grove, which may have offensive power. The search captain reminded.
Everyone cheered up and started picking berries.
At first, there was nothing abnormal, and someone noticed that the people around him were gone.
"Where's Akai?
"Song Guo is also gone. "I don't know when, 2 people disappeared, and no one noticed.
"Everybody, get out of the berry grove, right now!" shouted the captain.
Everyone hurriedly withdrew from the fruit grove, and the fruit grove was calm and seemed to be in no danger.
"Akai, Akai!" "Song Country, Song Kingdom!" someone shouted in a low voice, and in this forest, it was dangerous to talk loudly.
There was no response, no one answered, and the two people disappeared without a sound.
"Well, cut down this berry grove and see what's going on. "My comrades-in-arms for many years have disappeared for no reason, and everyone's feelings are very bad.
"In case of a counterattack by the berry grove, everyone will lose more than they gain. "There was opposition.
"Then is it just to watch Akai and Song Guo disappear?"
"What else should I do? As you said, if you attack Berry Grove and cause more casualties, who is to blame? Do you blame you?" everyone disagreed, and began to argue.
After arguing for a long time, Lin Xiaoyu finally decided to attack from a distance and see the effect, so that there was room to retreat or choose to continue the attack.
Earth-based Abilities set up their defenses, and Wind and Fire Abilities focused their attacks on where Akai would have been standing before. With an order, a hurricane rushed into the berry grove with a fierce ball of fire.
Don't look at the berries as just plants, under the attack of these 9th-order abilities, they just shook their bodies and scorched the leaves, but that's it. In the last days, the supernatural ones are strong, but the mutated plants are even stronger, and all plants, animals, and people are evolving.
Although it didn't hurt the berry grove much, it still managed to alarm the ambushers below, and one by one giant earthworms crawled out of the bushes of the berry grove and squirmed towards the crowd at a speed that was not caught off guard.
"Prepare for battle!" the captain rushed into the battlefield first. Each of these giant earthworms is the thickness of a bowl, between 1 and 2 meters in length, and a piece of sharp teeth in the shape of a chrysanthemum, which is enough to crush any food, and it is better to say that they are like earthworms, dead worms.
Fighting these thunderbolt-spitting worms is not an easy task, and lightning attacks have always been difficult to resist. Fortunately, everyone has gained a lot of experience in fighting, and there are always some attributes that can resist lightning attacks.
Mu Wei's short sword finally came in handy, dealing with hard tree vines, the short sword didn't have much effect, however, against these soft things, the short sword was sharp and hard enough to cut them into several pieces, however, Mu Wei didn't have an ability, and needed other abilities to further destroy the worms, which also made it impossible to do anything. Otherwise, with the vitality of the worm, cutting it into several sections can only have a large impact on its attack power and action, but it cannot completely eliminate it. Of course, if she was able to do this, she was already able to surprise the rest of the team with her, and no one could ask for more from her.
A vicious battle, the number of worms is about a hundred, the average person has to deal with the attack of more than 6 worms at the same time, from time to time someone screams, dragged into the bushes by the worms, some people want to escape, but running away will only make them die faster. This is when everyone has to do their best.
