The reason why Quartz ventured back to the woods was actually due to his own considerations.

Ali felt that his elves relied on to survive in the secret realm, but Quartz was different, he had a system to rely on in addition to the elves.

If the 100,000 points are used to buy a 50-point grapefruit fruit, it is enough for all of them to eat for three months, not to mention that he also has a large amount of energy cubes stored.

The energy cube, in particular, was exactly what he needed right now.

Because of the parasitism of the elf virus, the consumption of physical strength of the fire dinosaur is very huge, and it is obviously not enough to eat ordinary food, and now it is very weak, and it has to use energy cubes to continuously replenish.

Whether it's a system that can conjure things out of thin air or an energy cube that hasn't yet been released, it's not suitable for Ali's face, and going to the woods to find food and wood is a good opportunity to avoid Ali and create a private space.

Quartz said goodbye to Ali and headed for the woods, now with a mask made of the ship's towel wrapped around his face, followed by a fire dinosaur with a vague footsteps, carefully moving in the direction of the woods.

After ten minutes of hard progress in the haze, Quartz hurriedly took out the [Energy Cube Box] with the system after confirming that there was no one around, took out a small handful of energy cubes of different colors and stuffed them into the mouth of the fire dinosaur, and took out a few grapefruit fruits and Da Da duck to eat, he was already so hungry that his chest was close to his back, and he wanted to take out the tree fruit to eat when he was in the camp.

The complex and layered pomelo fruit is rich in water, and the quartz fills the stomach half full and feels less thirsty.

Just relying on Wen Yuguo, he didn't have to worry about drinking water and food in the secret realm, and the system really made a great contribution this time.

The next thing is to go to the woods and get some branches back, and then take some grapefruit for Ali and them to eat.

As a wounded man, Ali needed more water and nutrients than him, and if he could, Quartz also wanted to bring the fruit back to him directly.

But if you don't go to the woods to get some branches and come back, it's really hard to explain where these tree fruits come from, and you have to do a full set of shows.

The fire dinosaur was in a much better state after eating up the energy cubes, so it didn't take long for them to return to the edge of the woods, but what they saw surprised Quartz:

This forest, which was once dense with foliage, now has no leaf to be found, and the whole forest is almost withered and deserted, and the bare trunks are densely wriggled with countless green caterpillars, which crawl and gnaw on the branches and leaves of the trees, and are very busy eating and feasting.

Quartz clearly saw dozens of green caterpillars swarming up, and in just a few tens of seconds, a well-established towering conifer tree was gnawed into a bare wooden stake, and even the bark was left!

The green caterpillar is a very familiar elven quartz, it has a caterpillar-like appearance, the emerald green body has yellow ring markings on both sides, and the abdomen is white, with two pairs of gastropods, and the gastropods have suction cups on them that can be attached to the tree.

Its most striking features are the Y-shaped red antennae on its head and its large, black round eyes on its face, which look a little cute.

But in the eyes of those who are afraid of bugs, these cute traits make it look even more disgusting and terrifying.

Quartz clearly remembers that the green caterpillar race is the fastest evolving race in the entire elven ecosystem, and it only takes a week from birth to evolve into a complete body of the big butterfly.

In order to meet such developmental needs, green caterpillars will eat a large number of plant branches and leaves, and can eat hundreds of leaves every day...

Such a terrible amount of food, combined with the thousands in front of him, was a completely devastating disaster for this forest.

Look closely, those gnawed bare tree trunks are still clinging to countless iron chrysalis, these iron chrysalis quietly lie on the trunk to accumulate energy, from time to time will flash a dazzling blue light, and then there will be a big butterfly from the cocoon into a butterfly to evolve, flutter those two pairs of huge white scales and fly to the depths of the woods, I am afraid to find food.

The butterfly is a huge dark purple butterfly with short, rounded limbs and a pair of huge black veined wings, and the wings are filled with hypnotic and paralyzing poisonous powder.

It has a pair of pink compound eyes and a round nose on its round and fluffy little head, a pair of small tiger teeth in its mouth and slender tentacles on the top of its head, which looks very cute.

Like the green caterpillar, the butterflies are spiky spirits, but unlike the green caterpillars, they feed on more nutrient-rich pollen and nectar.

There may seem to be no nectar in this coniferous forest, but in fact, the tree is an emotionless pollen-making machine, and the brown bulbs at the end of the branches hide a lot of pollen for them to eat.

For Ba Da Butterfly, these brown bulbs are like treasures waiting for them to discover and enjoy.

Looking at the dense insects in the forest in front of him, Quartz only felt his scalp tingle.

He himself is not very afraid of insects, and even thinks that many insect elves are very handsome, such as the giant pincer mantis, flying mantis and armored warriors he has seen before.

But so many caterpillars come together, quantitative changes cause qualitative changes, and qualitative changes cause nausea...

He was so sick that he was about to throw up.

He was a little scared to let Quartz go into the forest to collect timber now, but he was sorry for the weak Ali when he went back empty-handed, so now he was in a dilemma.

Otherwise, just exchange some tree fruits from the system and send them back directly, just say that there are too many insects in the woods, and only dare to pick up a few fruits.

But wood is also very important, don't look at it has been sunny for dozens of hours, if they are unlucky enough to end the polar day, they may face many days of polar night.

If there is no sunlight, you can only rely on campfires to keep them warm and lit, but how can you maintain them without firewood?

If you don't take advantage of the sunny weather to gather enough firewood, will you wait for the polar night to come here in the dark to find wood?

After thinking about it, Quartz still felt that it was not appropriate to go back like this, even if it was a little risk, he had to collect some firewood and go back.

The state of the fire dinosaur has been much better, and the insect system is naturally afraid of fire, so Quartz feels that he can rely on the flame of the fire dinosaur to fight with these green caterpillars.

So he and the fire dinosaur wandered around the forest for a while, found a location with relatively few green caterpillars, and tiptoed close to the forest.

The green caterpillars in the trees were oblivious to their infiltration, and were still cradling the branches to eat, so quartz and fire dinosaurs began to pick up the dry sticks from the ground with their hands and feet.

Thanks to these green caterpillars, the trees in this forest were almost devoid of water-rich leaves and twigs, and many dry trunks were scattered on the soil where even the grass had been gnawed.

Just as Quartz turned around and was about to call it a day and go back, he suddenly met a pair of eyes.

This is an emerald green ironclad chrysalis, different from the insect chrysalis in nature, the pupa form of the insect elf also has a pair of eyes, which can see the surrounding movements.

The cold sweat behind the quartz "Huh~" came out at once.

He patronized and guarded those green caterpillars, forgetting about the iron armor chrysalis, and subconsciously thought that they were just ordinary pupae that could not move without five senses.

"Coaxing !!" The ironclad chrysalis let out a high-pitched roar that blew the stone into two ears.

Immediately afterward, all the green caterpillars in the forest stopped gnawing, and thousands of dark eyes swept in the direction of quartz, which was terrifying.
