Chapter Twenty-Seven: Rescuing the Hostages
Li Qinghe was reading a book to understand the background of this world, and when he heard Nan Ko Taro suddenly lead the topic to himself, he also followed Nan Ko Taro's words.
"Apricot, I'm sorry, as a sister, you're also desperately patient."
Katsumi Kida apologized to Kyoko Akizuki.
"Don't mention this, it's not early, let's go to lunch."
Li Qinghe put away the book and proposed.
At this time, two guests, a man and a woman, came into the tea room, and the girl was dry and not wet by the rain, and the man became a chicken in the soup.
"Welcome. Apricots, bring a towel. Give this guest a wipe first. ”
As soon as Apricot took out the towel, the man, who was wet from the rain, hugged his face and lay on the coffee table.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”
Minami Kotaro hurriedly asked.
The two are supposed to be a couple, the boy draped his clothes over the girl, the girl did not have any rain on her, and the boy was wet with the rain.
"My face, my face is so hot, so hot."
The boy said bitterly.
"It's okay, cheer up."
Minami Kotaro hurriedly helped the boy up.
The moment the boy raised his head, he startled the people around him, and Li Qinghe saw that the branches and leaves of an unknown plant had grown on the boy's face at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Ahh
The boy's friends and Kyoko screamed in fright.
"What's going on?"
Nanko Taro looked at Li Qinghe with a solemn face, and saw Li Qinghe nodding to himself.
"Is this Gorgom doing it again?"
Minami Kotaro thought to himself.
Minami Kotaro waited until the rain stopped, and then sent the boy to a nearby hospital, where he met other people on the way, and plants grew on his face, and by the way, he sent other patients to the hospital as well.
As soon as he was taken to the hospital, the boy was taken to the emergency room.
Li Qinghe: They could see outside the emergency room that in this short period of time, vines actually grew on the boy's body again.
"It's unbelievable that plants can grow in the human body."
The attending doctor next to him was also helpless about this condition, which has never been seen before in the history of medicine.
"What the hell happened to Yuji? What the hell is going on. ”
The boy's girlfriend was pulling at the apricot's clothes and was about to cry anxiously.
"Let's go."
Lee Ching-ha left the hospital, and as he left, motioned for Minami Kotaro to follow as well, while Yoshitoshi Morita was in charge of protecting the others.
On the way to drive to find clues in Gorgom, a student in a sportswear with a face covered in leaves collapsed in front of Li Qinghe. Minami Kotaro hurriedly got out of the car and helped the student up.
"What's going on?"
Minami Kotaro found out the seriousness of the matter this time, and the people who have plants growing on their faces, not one or two, may be many.
"I don't know, practicing in the rain, suddenly a leaf pops out of my face."
Minami Kotaro recalls that the boy with a face covered in leaves in his teahouse shop also got drenched in the rain because he lent his clothes to his girlfriend, and it won't be wrong, the reason for this strange disease in the rain is.
"I've called an ambulance, and I need to find out the cause of this as soon as possible."
Li Qinghe called Minami Kotaro back to the car.
At this time, Li Qinghe looked at the sky and heard a large number of people screaming.
It was the hospital that had just been taken away by the Batfin in Gorgom, and yes, it was the hospital, which was cast into a huge net and taken away by the Batman.
"Chase, the direction in which the bat monster flies should be the location of Gorgom's plan this time."
Li Qinghe got into the car and flew towards the place where the bat monster was.
Nankotaro's face was a little anxious, because there might still be Kyoko Akizuki, Katsumi Kida, and Yukari Tsukikage in the ward.
"Don't worry, they'll be fine."
Li Qinghe also hopes that the car will drive faster and faster.
Gorgoms Fruit Collection Base.
"I seem to be able to see stupid humans crying out in pain, I didn't expect my body to become the nourishment of Gorgoms, I can't even think of it."
Grand Priest Darome took a deep breath.
"Cactus Monster, you have taken a great credit this time. This Gorms fruit is for you. ”
High priest Byhem tosses a Gorm fruit to the cactus.
"It's not right."
The high priest Raom looked at Bishume with some strange feelings, Gorgoms is not only food for strangers, but also can enhance the strength of strangers.
Each Gorms Fruit Bucket is extremely precious, and if it weren't for the fact that the weirdo needs a lot of energy to wake up from his slumber, the Gorms Fruit would not have been messed up.
"There's nothing wrong with it, the cactus monster's toxin can make the Golgoms fruit grow from humans. With cactus freaks, there are countless Golgoms fruits. ”
The High Priest Bishum explained.
The high priest Raom's brain was slow to react, and he was confused by what Bishum said, and nodded as if he understood or not,
Grand Priest Darom just shook his head and didn't say much. There are actually a lot of weirdos in Gorgom.
There are many species, and there is not only one of them, just to prevent the extermination of the Gorgoms and considering the number of Gorgoms fruits, it is enough to keep only one of each race, and the rest of the weirdos go underground, waiting for hundreds or even thousands of years to wake up naturally.
If the cactus monster dies, there are also many dormant cactus monsters who can take over his mission.
However, since the Great Priest has spoken by Bighum, the Gorgoms Fruit is only useful for the weirdos, and it is useless for the three major priests. So the archpriest Darom didn't care about the Gorgoms fruit that Hume rewarded the cactus monster.
The bat flew too fast, and Li Qinghe quickly lost the car. However, Li Qinghe can track down the current location of the bat monster with his mark on the bat monster man.
Minami Kotaro also saw the bat monster out of his sight, "Senpai, what should I do?" ”
"I can't lose it, you can call Apricot now to see if they are in that hospital."
Li Qinghe still drove the car steadily, flying in the direction of the bat monster.
"Hey. Is it an apricot? ”
Nanko Taro was also too nervous about the safety of the apricots, and he didn't think of contacting the apricots by phone in a hurry.
"Well, yes, Kotaro, we just walked out of the hospital, and the patient we just sent to the hospital was captured by the bat monsters along with the hospital."
On the phone, Apricot said fearfully.
"Then you're all right."
"Well, Kotaro, you must save the others who have been captured."
Kyoko asked on the phone.
"Don't worry, I'll get them out."
Nanko Taro knows that the apricots are fine, so they are no longer anxious, people are like this, they must care about those who are close to them, as for other people who don't know, then they will be saved, and if they can't be saved, they can only blame their own lives.
Li Qinghe heard that Moon Shadow was okay with Gali, so he stopped speeding and slowed down.
Li Qinghe drove off the road and soon came to a big mountain.
"Let's go, it's around here."
Because it was a mountain, the vehicle could not go up, so Li Qinghe and Minami Kotaro had to get out of the car and go on foot to find the traces of Gorgom.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry."
Lee Ching-ha and Minami Kotaro discovered that police had brought the two bodies down the mountain. These two bodies are obviously the two botanists on the mountain who were pushed down the mountain by the cactus monster and fell to their deaths.
"What's wrong?"
Li Qinghe ran over and asked.
"They are two well-known botanists who started to collect plants in the mountains during the day yesterday and disappeared, and now they have been found, but unfortunately, both of them have passed away, and they should have fallen from the mountain and died."
A silver-haired policeman sighed that it was a shame that the two botanists had died. If they live, they should make a greater contribution, and how much manpower and material resources will be spent to train two more botanists.
"So which mountain is the mountain where he disappeared?"
If there was no Gorgom nearby, it would be strange that Li Qinghe would believe it.
Since these two botanists dared to go up the mountain to collect plants, they must have made all the preparations, and it is still possible for one person to fall down, and if both of them fall to their deaths, there will be a problem.
"It's directly across the mountain."
When Minami Kotaro heard the policeman's words, he immediately headed for the mountain.
"Wait a minute, what are you going to do, it's dangerous to climb a mountain without all preparation. The mountain is the hardest to climb, and there are so many things to look out for that it's best not to go. ”
The policeman kindly admonished Minami Kotaro.
"Thank you for the reminder, it's dangerous around here, so you'd better leave early."
Li Qinghe also kindly advised the policeman, and after saying that, Li Qinghe and Minami Kotaro headed towards the mountain that was difficult to climb.
"Danger? Is there a ferocious beast that is the most dangerous thing here? ”
The policeman muttered and left.
This is also ordinary people, the less they know, the less troubles they have, and ignorance is sometimes a kind of happiness, without worrying about the attack of Gorgom.
Gorgoms Gathering Base.
"The Gorgoms fruit absorbs human nutrients and grows hundreds of times faster than in a dark world, and it can grow faster if exposed to ultraviolet light."
Seeing that thousands of Gorms were already ripe, Raom had collected them by the other weirdos and began to transport them.
Grand Priest Darome nodded contentedly when he saw that humans had become dozens of Gorgoms fruits,
"Don't humans boast that they can eat anything? Then we can eat them too. ”
Li Qinghe and Minami Kotaro were walking, and suddenly the feet of the two people were grabbed by four hands underground.
Li Qinghe didn't move at all, and Minami Kotaro was pulled down.
It was the turtle monster who grabbed Li Qinghe, and Li Qinghe stepped back on the turtle monster who had not yet come out of the ground. Li Qinghe's strength is terrifyingly strong in this world, and he can deal with some less powerful weirdos in his human form.
It was the cactus freak who grabbed Kotaro Minami, who was kicked aside by Kotaro Minami.
