Those who are in the fog find that the fog is dissipating, and those outside the fog also find this sign.

The fog, which originally gathered like cotton and could not be blown by the wind, began to gradually peel off its cocoon, and wisps of it were withdrawn and dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This phenomenon immediately made the hunters gathered outside the fog realize that something must have happened in the fog, otherwise these fogs would not be able to end well and suddenly begin to disappear.

For a while, some hunters couldn't wait to rush into the fog, for fear that they would be one step too late and lose their own benefits.

But at the same time, there were also some hunters who chose to be cautious and did not rush in, but continued to observe outside and check the situation in the fog.

Just as the hunters outside were making their own choices, Rob and the others and a group of hooks who had reached a cooperation intention were groping to leave.

Although the fog is dissipating, the sight is still not good, so Rob's decision is to go out first and wait for the fog to completely dissipate before starting the investigation.

Since they agreed to cooperate, then naturally a group of people are now hooked based on Rob's words, anyway, now he is the boss, and whatever decision he makes, as long as it is not a very dangerous thing, they will listen, so a group of people have no opinion.

However, it's not quite right, although Rob and the others were relatively simple and rude when they came in, and they didn't have the strength to leave any marks, but don't forget, he has been wearing a compass on his hand, although this thing has lost most of its functions in the game, but there are still some functions that can still be used after leaving the game.

Like basic time, timing, guides, etc., the most useful of them is to make markers, you can set up to record the routes you have walked, etc.

Rob had the foresight to set the markers before he entered the fog, and now he can go back the way he came by just looking at the markers in the compass, without fear of getting lost in the fog before it dissipates.

A group of people already know that the demon tree has been hunted, and this fog will dissipate, and nine times out of ten it is related to it, and without the demon tree, there is actually nothing dangerous in this fog.

So when walking, I wasn't very vigilant, but the movement was quite large, after all, forty people, how could it be compared with the six people when Rob and them came in, one by one was very scattered, but they also gathered together in twos and threes, chatting quietly, talking, if you don't listen carefully, you can only hear the sound of Suosuo.

As the leader, Rob leads the way while thinking about how to proceed with the investigation.

You know, although he listened to Manda Haydon's words and came to Jiuxu to see the situation, but in fact, he really wanted him to investigate something, but he basically had no clue.

There are no samples of the parasitic species that cause strange diseases in the North Acropolis, and this thing is so small that it is not visible to the naked eye, which also makes it more difficult.

However, he wondered, those parasitic species in the North Acropolis should not be mothers, if they were mothers, they should be very large? Maybe they were parasitic on some kind of plant?

Just as he was pondering, he suddenly heard a commotion from the crowd behind him, and then there was a swearing. He thought it was someone who had quarreled, but when he looked back, he found that it was the huntress who claimed to teach cassava and was cursing.

Rob turned around and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Cassava's face was not very good, and he looked very angry, and when he saw that it was Rob, he said, "We are dead." ”

"Someone died?" Rob was surprised when he heard this, everyone had left well just now, and there was no battle or anything, how could someone suddenly die?"

"That's the case......" The hook was also on the side, seeing that Cassava was getting angry, afraid that she would anger the boss, so he interjected and said: "...... We were walking in the back before, and a hunter suddenly had an urgent need to urinate, so he ran to pee, but he didn't come back for a long time, and when our people went to look for it, they found that the hunter who went to pee was dead. ”

"How did you die?" "You can lose your life if you pee?"

"It's not ......" The hook shook his head, and was about to speak, but was robbed of the conversation by cassava, and said angrily: "This guy deserves to die, it is estimated that he touched some plant that he has never seen, so he was entangled to death." ”

Entangled?

Hearing this way of dying, Rob unconsciously moved in his heart and said, "Take me to see!"

Hearing this, Cassava looked at Rob with a strange look, probably thinking strange, how could this person like to look at corpses, but now that he is the boss, she did not refuse, and led Rob back to see the unlucky hunter who died after peeing.

Wine and salt have been following Rob all the time, and now Rob went to see the corpse, and a few people followed.

In the world of hunters, life and death are very normal things, some people die because they encounter powerful monsters, some people are killed because they have disputes with other hunters, and some people are poisoned because they touch some strange plants.

Obviously, the hunter who lost his life by peeing died because he encountered strange plants.

The hunter's body was in the same place, and the hunters around him were all standing at a distance of one or two meters, and they didn't dare to touch it, because no one knew what strange plant the hunter had touched and why he died.

Although a glance at the past can now see that this hunter has countless silk-like thin vines entangled, which are obviously entangled, but it may also be poisonous?

In the ruins forest, there is no shortage of all kinds of strange plants, so in the hunters' capital, there is a rule, that is, to restrain their curiosity, do not approach and touch any strange plants that have not been seen at will.

It stands to reason that the hunters here are all old fritters, so how can they touch unfamiliar plants because of curiosity?

Rob, like the others, did not rush closer, but stood two meters away, looking at the corpse lying on the ground from a distance.

The hunter's pants were still unbuttoned, revealing little dingding, apparently in a state of release at the time of his death.

His death was bizarre, even terrifying, with his mouth, nostrils, eye sockets, and ear holes stuffed with tiny vines like silk threads, which then spread and wrapped around his limbs, shrinking and tightening in the process, causing the corpse's limbs to fold and twist strangely.

If the hunter hadn't died immediately, the process would have been painful and even hopeless.

The silk vine slowly spreads, wraps around, and then gradually shrinks, causing the limbs to twist with irresistible force, and this kind of death is even more torture than torture.

And the hunter's head, under the entanglement of the silk vine, twisted to the back, making people feel their scalp tingle when they look at it.

Rob activated the snake pupil and carefully observed the state of these silk vines, especially the head of the corpse, people said that the seven orifices bled to death, but now this hunter is the seven orifices covered with silk vines and died.

I don't know if these silk vines grew from his body, or if they climbed on him from somewhere else and then got into these parts.

However, if it was from somewhere else, the hunter should be alert, and even if he was defeated, he would definitely make movements and cries for help, and it was impossible for him to remain silent after being entangled.

However, the people around him, even the companion who was waiting for him to pee back, didn't hear anything unusual, and it was only after noticing that the other party was slow to return that they felt something strange and looked in the direction.

“…… When we found him, although he still looked like he was still alive, it was too late to save him, and the silk vines were already wrapped around his body...... We were afraid of danger, so we didn't dare to approach. The corpse hunter's companion said when questioned.

To be honest, when he heard the hook say that he was being entangled, Rob thought for a moment that he had found the cause of the strange disease in the North Acropolis, but when he looked at the scene, he found that the appearance of this hunter was still different from the strange disease that occurred in the North Acropolis, at least although it was also a thin vine, the thin vine on the hunter in front of him was obviously thinner.

Moreover, the strange disease of the North Acropolis is that after a person dies, there will be thin vines piercing the skin and bursting out, attacking the living creatures around them, but there is obviously no in front of him, it just entangles the hunter and entangles it to death, which looks a bit like a python hunting method.

Of course, it's just that the methods are similar.

In addition to the corpse, the most striking thing at the scene was a blue mushroom not far from the corpse.

There are many mushrooms in the Ruins Forest, but this is the first time I've seen a mushroom as huge as the one in front of me.

The mushroom is more than half a meter tall, and its canopy is blue with white spots of different sizes, and it stands there alone, with no associated fungi or rotting leaves around it, and it grows directly on the ground.

Judging by the small puddle of water at the root of the mushroom, the hunter was urinating on it.

Was it during the peeing that the mushroom was attacked? But the mushroom doesn't have a thin vine on it!

Just as Rob was puzzled, through the snake pupils, he suddenly noticed a strange energy surge on his corpse, and immediately issued a warning: "Everyone retreat!"

Rob's warning was sudden, but after all, they were all experienced people, and they reacted instantly, and quickly retreated, and immediately, they saw the hunter's corpse lying on the ground, and there were blue clouds all over his body.

"What the hell?!"

"Steamed buns?"

"You take a bite and try it!"

Even at such times, the surrounding hunters still have the leisure to joke.

Soon, however, the answer came naturally, and the clumps of objects that emerged from the hunter's corpse soon unfurled, as if in bloom, and unfolded their canopies, turning into blue mushrooms of various sizes with white spots.

Looking at the hunter's corpse covered with mushrooms in the blink of an eye, everyone around looked at each other and felt a burst of hair on his body.

"Is this sowing seeds?" muttered one of the hunters.

"It's a terrible way of spreading. "Obviously, everyone has seen that the hunter died after being attacked by the big mushroom, and the reason why he attacked the hunter was to sow his own seeds.

In a way, this is indeed very in line with the rules of nature, maybe it is not a human who encounters this mushroom, but a demon beast, and the one lying on the body full of mushrooms is a demon beast and not a human.

After figuring out what was going on, the hunters around them relaxed a little.

What people are most afraid of is the unknown, and if you know the reason, then there is a way to prevent it. Like this dead hunter, if he hadn't gone to pee in front of the blue mushroom, he probably wouldn't have become a carrier for sowing seeds, right?

I don't know who was curious, so he threw a stone at it.

The stone was about the size of a fist, and at such a close distance, it was naturally hit at once, and at this moment, through the snake's pupils, Rob suddenly saw that from under the umbrella cover of the mushroom, some transparent and subtle, fluff-like objects floated out.

A thought flashed through his mind in an instant, and he immediately shouted: "Everyone, be careful! A seed has floated over! Whoever blows the wind!"

There was a commotion in the crowd, and then two wind elemental demon hunters walked out, and they didn't know how big the gust of wind Rob was talking about, and when they shook their hands, a gust of wind blew over, and the ground was so bad that the gravel on the ground was about to fly.

"Enough!" Rob felt the sweat coming down, and this time he blew it, those mushroom seeds that floated out, and he didn't know where they had gone, and whether they would meet people.

"What's going on?" Cassava asked in confusion, she hadn't seen anything just now, so she heard Rob ask someone to blow the wind.

She looked over and saw Rob turn around, saw the other party's yellow vertical pupils, and was startled: "Your eyes are ......"

Rob was slightly stunned, and then realized that he had forgotten to cancel the snake pupil, so he hurriedly canceled it, so a pair of eyes changed again.

Cassava really saw it, so naturally he didn't feel that he was dazzled, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart, and he didn't know what this changing eye was for. But she also knew that this must be someone's secret, so she didn't ask about it.

"I just saw something transparent, plush, falling from under the mushroom's umbrella and floating over. Rob explained, "I suspect they're mushroom seeds, so I want to blow them off...... Actually, I wanted to get some of them, but the wind was too strong, and now I don't know where those seeds are flying. ”

Hearing this, the two demon hunters were slightly embarrassed, but this can't be blamed on others, who made Rob not make it clear.

"Now it's clear that this mushroom spreads its seeds by touching the lid of the umbrella and then sprinkling flying white floc, so don't touch it when you see it. ”

And now, why did the hunter die, it is also understood, it is obvious that the urine touched the mushroom, so it was parasitized by the seed, this incident once again tells everyone, even if you pee, you must sprinkle well, don't just think about what plants to fertilize, otherwise you don't know how to die.

"But it's strange that we haven't encountered this mushroom when we came here before!" said Cassava, "When did it appear?"

Hearing this, Rob also frowned.

Indeed, they hadn't seen this mushroom before, so they couldn't have all been lucky, so they hadn't encountered it, right?

He looked at the mist, which was gradually dissipating, and wondered, could the appearance of this mushroom be related to this mist?
