In the slightly dimly lit woods.

The silence was broken by hissing, the grinding of scales, and the eerie sound of distortions.

The tentacles are intertwined with the serpent.

It's also an existence that can make humans physiologically uncomfortable just by seeing it.,But it's going on an extremely fierce fight.。

Oh no, perhaps the word "slaughter" would be more appropriate to describe this battle.

Even though the serpents are indeed staggeringly numerous, and as an animal, they are quite powerful.

At least among the vast majority of animals known to the world, it is already extraordinary.

But unfortunately, no matter how unusual an animal is, it is still an animal in essence.

It's a creature of flesh and blood.

But the tentacles have long since gotten rid of such categories.

Although it has the shape of an ordinary octopus's tentacles, it looks almost the same from the outside, but its internal structure and function have long been completely different!

If anything, I'm afraid to use the term "mythical creature" to describe it.

With such an existence, where can a group of poisonous snakes be able to defeat?

The venomous snakes did quickly discover this, and the animal's nature of seeking advantage and avoiding harm made them want to avoid the tentacles, and directly attacked Shirakawa Haru and Selena among them.

In their simple and shallow wisdom, as long as they bite down on those two-legged creatures with their fangs, what awaits each other is the end of death!

It's just that the efforts of the vipers are doomed to be in vain.

Because Shirakawa Harukawa had already guessed their possible behavior patterns.

Even if you can't see the movements and bodies of the poisonous snakes clearly in your sight, inside the tentacles, there are more tentacles, waiting for each other!

Similarly, "gluttony" is also guarding the two of them.

Don't forget, Bai Chuanqing's own body is not a normal human being.

Under such triple protection, Bai Chuanqing's side can be said to be truly solid and leaky.

Occasionally, one or two gray shadows can be seen in the world of mosaics, struggling to cross one or two layers of obstacles and come to Shirakawa Haru.

Because of the proximity, Shirakawa Haru was finally able to see their appearance clearly.

It was the same kind of snake that was slaughtered by Harukawa Shirakawa.

Having just experienced a difficult breakthrough, these two snakes still look a little embarrassed.

The second half of Ichijo's body was gone, leaving only a bloody upper body.

The other one was a little better, but not much better, with large scales, probably torn off by the suction cups on the tentacles, and also covered with blood.

But even so, their eyes showed a strong ferocity.

There was almost no place to stay, and he rushed towards Shirakawa Haru.

Before Bai Chuanqing could do it himself, the "gluttony" that had been waiting for a long time on the side turned into a big gulp and rushed up and swallowed it in one gulp.

- This is Shirakawa Haru's acquiescence, after all, the consciousness of "gluttony" is in dormancy, and I am afraid it will take a lot of energy to recover.

The two injured poisonous snakes became the belly of "gluttony".

It's only the size of a book, and it's hard to imagine how it eats flesh and blood that is much larger than its own.

Yes, although on the surface, Harushi Shirakawa has always been in a defensive posture.

It's always the snakes that attack.

But in fact, such an almost crazy attack, instead of causing any harm to Shirakawa Haru, was just a "suicide attack".

Over time, there was not much hissing outside of the tentacles.

Even the sound of the scales grinding disappeared.

The tentacles that surround the surroundings are constantly retracted, and Shirakawa Haru looks around.

At this time, the vision has gradually regained clarity.

What I saw was undoubtedly a tragic picture.

It's just that this tragedy is also unilateral to the venomous snake.

One after another, the corpses of broken snakes were scattered around.

Some of the torsos were deflated, and only a snake's skin remained, which was a poor snake drained by its tentacles.

Some were torn into several pieces by the vigorous tearing of the tentacles, and blood sprayed all over the ground—although the dead could no longer die, the broken body still writhed restlessly due to the characteristics of the creature.

Most of the snake carcasses bear the scars of scales torn off by suction cups.

A large piece of it is quite shocking to watch.

Blood and stumps are everywhere, and for the snakes, this is probably a scene similar to "Snake Purgatory".

For such a scene, Bai Chuanqing also did not have much fluctuation, and Selena on the side was only slightly pale in her face, but she was still able to stay calm and sober.

It's just that the little hand that touched Bai Chuanqing was held tighter.

Bai Chuanqing raised his eyes and looked ahead, not far from there, it was the strange flower.

In fact, when viewed from this distance, this huge flower is not beautiful, and because of its large body, the shape of the petals is not good-looking.

It's no problem to describe it as "ugly".

Coupled with the large and small, dense bumps on the petals, it forms a human eye-like appearance.

When a normal person sees this kind of picture, he will probably only be horrified by it, and will never praise its beauty.

Although Shirakawa Harushi is not a normal person, she can't appreciate this beauty.

He had now discovered that the flower looked like the Rafflesia in the rainforest.

The so-called Rafflesia is the largest flower on the earth and has the reputation of "the king of flowers in the world".

But it's not something that the average person can appreciate.

The shape of the flowers and leaves is not pretty, and it also emits a rancid smell similar to that of a corpse.

Therefore, Rafflesia also has nicknames such as "carrion flower" and "cannibal flower".

It doesn't eat people, but the rancid smell it produces when it blooms attracts small insects such as flies, which help pollinate.

And when it bears fruit, the petals gradually turn black and wither, and within a few weeks they turn into a sticky black substance, and a semi-rotten fruit gradually forms inside the flower, which is extremely ugly.

The flower in front of you, even if it is not a rafflesia, must have some kind of kinship.

What Harukawa wants to know more now is how it came to be in this state and has such powerful hallucinogenic abilities.

Before exploring these questions, it is natural to make it completely incapable of resisting.

Out of vigilance against the unknown, and out of prudence, Shirakawa Harushi would not pick this flower with his own hands.

Instead, a tentacle stretched out and slowly moved in that direction.

The current tentacles have replaced the status of "gluttony" as the "best tool man" in Bai Chuanqing's mind, and it is really suitable to use it as this kind of temptation.

Little by little, the tentacles penetrated deep into the .....

The space around it.

It's not soft at all, it's quite tough, and it's extremely precise in purpose.

It's just a matter of getting closer to where the flower is.

In this process, it was quite unexpected by Shirakawa Haru and was not hindered much.

Originally, in Shirakawa Qing's mind, although this strange flower has lost the protection and drive of such a poisonous snake, there should be some abilities and hole cards that have not been shown.

For example, the position it is in at the moment is actually false, but the eyes just look like it is there.

Maybe it's a trap it has set right now, and it's still waiting for itself to take the bait!

It is precisely because of this speculation that Shirakawa Haru is extremely cautious in using the tentacles as a tool to find the way.

But until the tentacles touched the ugly petals.

With a strange touch, it came from the end of the tentacle.

This scarlet flower, like an ordinary plant, did not react at all.

Only a few seconds after the tentacles touched it, a cloud of gas with granular powder spread fluffily with a gentle flutter of the petals.

The powder gas was formless and colorless, and even with Shirakawa Haru's vision, it was impossible to see it at all.

The reason why he was able to discover the existence of these powders was due to the sensitive and delicate touch on the tentacles, and the granular substance was contaminated on the tentacles.

Even if Bai Chuanqing didn't have close contact, he could still basically determine that they were probably its pollen.

It's the root of what makes this woods so weird!

If he had approached by himself, he might have accidentally inhaled that kind of pollen, and then something unexpected would happen.

But the tentacles are not affected by such pollen.

The colorless and odorless pollen did not affect it at all.

Bai Chuanqing was still a little vigilant, waiting for the last resort of this flower.

But then.....

Nothing happened.

The flower just stayed there languishing, as if even the scarlet color on the petals had faded considerably.

The listless look looks like a student before the final exam.

But other than that, nothing else has changed.

This made Bai Chuanqing, who originally thought that he was going to experience another battle, and even wanted to say a word-

"That's it?"

Although this tone is a bit contemptuous, it still describes Shirakawa Haru's mood very well at this time.

He took two steps in the direction of the wilting flowers, and only then did he unexpectedly see that under the flowers, it seemed to be soaked with a bright red color.

Seems..... Is it the blood of this flower?

But plants, where does the blood come from?

After thinking about it for a while, Bai Chuanqing vaguely understood the reason why this strange flower was languishing.

Now it seems that these poisonous snakes and strange flowers may be a kind of companionship.

It's just that this kind of companionship is no longer the same as the companionship of conventional animals, and the kind of companion that picks the teeth and lives in a shell is estimated to be impossible to do so anyway.

In this wood, there are no other creatures, so how do so many snakes survive?

I'm afraid, it depends on the energy created by this flower.

The life of this strange flower may have been connected to them for a long time.

So, when so many poisonous snakes died, the flower itself was already very badly injured.

This is why, as the viper is killed, the senses around it become weaker, so that it is now almost insignificant.

Thinking of this, Bai Chuanqing relaxed a lot, but she still maintained a considerable vigilance.

Still using his tentacles to pluck the petals of this large flower, and even go deep into its stamens to explore the mysteries..... Ahem! It is "fiddling" and "stamens" in the physical sense.

Even its most critical parts, its roots in the dirt, were touched by the tentacles, and even played with them.

But.....

There was no reaction at all.

The huge flower, as if it had died, slumped there quietly, at the mercy of its tentacles.

It's like a toy that's been broken.

By this time, Shirakawa Harushi could finally basically confirm that this flower had lost most of its ability to resist.

So now the question arises -

What to do with such a strange flower?

Shirakawa Harukawa lowered her head and thought.

According to his original idea, it is undoubtedly the best choice to eat it directly.

But this thing.....

Can you really eat it?

Looking at the dark lines on the petals, it is like an eye-like image.

It's a bit hard to eat.

However, Shirakawa Harushi is actually not the kind of person who cares about the image very much, and he cares more about the fact that there may be some kind of special toxin in this thing.

You have to be a little more cautious.

Thinking of this, Shirakawa Harushi finally decided to let the tentacles dig up the entire soil of this flower bush to determine its death, and then proceed to the next consideration.

"Click....."

The earth loosened for a moment, and the huge flowers were lifted off the ground little by little as the tentacles moved.

But the picture under the dirt surprised both Selena and Shirakawa Haru.

The roots of the flowers are dark red.

It's like blood is flowing in it, too.

The other two were surprised not by this, but by .....

Those roots, starting from where the flower is located, continue to spread outward.

The tightness of the roots can even make some patients with dense phobia faint at a glance.

Tightly entwined, condensed in the dirt on the side, deeply rooted.

I don't know how far it will spread.

Because of the vigorous movement of the tentacles, many of the roots are constantly broken, but there are still many more roots, stubbornly rooted in the soil, preventing the flowers from being uprooted.

Such a power is unexpectedly not small, and according to the standards of a plant, it can be said to be quite huge.

So much so that the tentacles felt a certain amount of resistance.

But the power of the tentacles was too great, and many of the dirt were turned up, and many of the roots were torn off by violence.

Looking at the flower's weakened and dying appearance, it seems that it can be heard screaming.

It's just that Bai Chuanqing will not have undue sympathy at this time, but continues to act just now.

And at this time, he was also unusually keenly aware of—

Something may be hidden beneath this dirt!

Thinking of this, Shirakawa Harukawa simply quickened the movement of the tentacles and dug down even harder.

Soon, a faint red glow was revealed in the soil......
