Dozens of minutes ago, at the top of the signal tower in Stuttgart.

"You know what?" The robed man stood at the edge of the viewpoint, looking at the city below covered in forests and vines, "The Duchy of Swabia was formerly known as the province of Germania in the ancient Solomonic Empire. ”

"At that time, the empire wanted to provide wireless network coverage, but the local Jamani barbarians believed that building a base station near their place of residence would have adverse health effects on the human body."

"So they besieged the Imperial construction team, smashed the base stations they built, and slaughtered their engineers."

"In the end, there was no way, the empire could only turn to the mountains on the outskirts to build this kind of super-large mobile communication base station, which is often as high as 200-300 meters, which is enough to cover the whole city into the signal range."

"Ignorance." The young man behind the robed man said.

"No, not ignorance." The robed man's voice was low, "It's fear." ”

"Fear of authority."

"They don't know what a base station is, they can only sense that the empire is changing their lives. Whether this change is good or bad, I don't know for the time being. But even if they are bad, it is difficult for them as individuals to resist the will of the Empire, so they have to intimidate and incite more people to accumulate power. So the rumors arose, and as for whether the base station itself is harmful to the human body, it doesn't matter, and no one cares anymore. ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" The young man behind him said impatiently.

"I'm leaving." The robed man said, "See you later." If you can survive to that time. ”

"You're leaving?" The young man was incredulous, "but our business has just begun......"

"That's your business, not mine." The robed man said lightly, "And it's not about a career, you're just earning your life for yourself, and you're barely trying to make a living under the mutual struggle of the two major sects." ”

"Be careful, if you don't have a clear understanding of your situation, I'm afraid that in the near future, you won't even know why you died."

He took a half-step forward and his body plummeted off the edge of the tower, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The young man stood in place, his face half blue and half white.

Turning back into the signal tower, the room was filled with huge plant vines, leaves and flower bones trembling like life.

He came to one of the flower bones and lay down backwards. The petals gradually closed, enveloping him and swallowing him in.

Inside the city, the soldiers who were patrolling, one of them suddenly felt sick to his stomach.

He held on to the lamppost next to the street and retched. Spit and spit out, something slippery and crawled out of my throat at a rapid pace.

A turquoise vine with branches and leaves.

"Ahh He screamed in fear and pain, but more weeds and vines broke through the flesh and grew wildly from his body.

"Cut down these monsters!" It was the shouts of panicked companions.

"Fire oil! With fire oil! The captain hurriedly instructed everyone.

A soldier hurriedly pulled out the oil from his waist, but his wrist was wrapped around the vines that suddenly stretched out next to him, and the paralyzing sensation hit him instantly, and the whole arm shriveled and shrunk at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Moments later, the patrolling soldiers were eaten alive by the near-uncontrollable vegetation, leaving only a patch of vibrant greenery, entrenched in the human city, spreading in all directions.

All of the Stuttgart guards who had taken special drugs almost all became ill at the same time, turning into nutrients for parasitic plants in their bodies, and feeding these plants to spread rapidly.

Almost the entire city, most of the dogs, horses, people, and animals were devoured by these strangely growing plants in a matter of minutes.

Gradually, the vines scattered everywhere began to bear huge fruits. Each fruit was wrapped in a human corpse, and the heart that had been resting began to beat vigorously again.

Dozens of minutes later, the people of the Azure Sword Mercenary Group had arrived at the outskirts of Stuttgart.

"Is everyone ready?" Asker, wearing a gas mask, asked.

"Ready." The girls were also fully armed, their bodies tightly wrapped in clothes, and they wore somewhat hideous gas masks.

Gas masks, originally belonging to the Bavarian plague, were brought back to Solomon by phone to get the medical supplies brought by the Licinian group to come in handy at this time.

Before entering the city, the air here is already filled with plant spores, which glow like a scaly brown in the sun. If you suck these spores in, you may have some kind of abnormality in your body.

Immediately afterward, Mi'er took out a large number of special firearms and carefully distributed them to everyone.

The flamethrower comes from the former mutant town, in its underground secret science and technology research institute. The firearm is embedded with the extraordinary properties of Flame I, which continuously shoots out a stream of flame heat as long as the user provides spirituality.

After the mutation ended, the group returned to the underground research institute of the Reality Plane, where they swept away all the firearms and stored them on the Hearthfire Island...... This is where it comes in handy.

Hey? Clever and shrewd like Sheila and Medea, it suddenly seems like a coincidence that is too much.

Could it be that when the regiment commander was holding those guns and gas masks, he had already expected that one day he would be able to use them?

Sheila is puzzled, and Medea is a direct mind-reader.

Nothing came out of it, and Aske was thinking about something else, but with what Medea knew about him, this guy must have been premeditated.

In the city ahead, the plants have stopped growing wildly, and the leaves cling to all the surfaces that can be attached, whether it is the road or the building, are covered by these turquoise plants.

Like a prehistoric primeval rainforest.

However, the girls are all wearing gas masks and holding flamethrowers in their hands, which means that the attack and defense of the plants in this quest copy have reached max.

Spirits infuse the firearm, pulling the trigger forward, spewing flames. So not to mention the spores in the air, even the flower bones that produce the spores were burned to the ground.

As they walked on, they saw that sprouts had sprouted from the ground in front of them, and vines were sticking out along the street beside them.

"Again." Asker said.

The guns were drawn again, and the flames swept through the field, and the plants were burned again.

"These plants seem to be extracting the life force of the nearby land." Nou suddenly spoke, "I noticed that the vitality of the ground under my feet was slowly draining. ”

"Does the land have a life?" Eleanor asked curiously.

"Vitality is stored in the land in the form of humus, which is often referred to in agronomy as land fertility." "Plants use photosynthesis to synthesize organic matter and store it in their bodies, and when the plants die, the organic matter in the remains is returned to the earth, where it accumulates to form fertile soil with thick humus." ”

"And the rapid growth and metabolism of these plants is built on the cost of extracting the vitality of the land. When this mutation is completely resolved......" Nuo hesitated and continued, "This land will most likely become a desert where no plants can be grown. ”

The crowd was speechless.

But everyone didn't have time to be sentimental, because the countless fruits on the vines in front of them burst open, and a large number of green-skinned monsters came out of it.

“waaagh！！！”

This is the loudest cry they utter with all their might when they come into this world.

It's like a cacophony of calamities.
