Chapter 10: The World of Plants

They had barely walked a hundred meters when suddenly the finger-thick roots at their feet moved, wrapping around everyone's feet.

Ye Muchen found that his senses were very keen, and he noticed it when the root of the tree touched his boots, and the sickle in his hand instinctively swung down, and the root of the tree that tried to entangle his right foot was directly cut off.

Because of the force used, the knife was also inserted into the thick roots of the tree below.

This made him frown, he still couldn't control the strength of his body, and he needed to find time to exercise.

As a result, he didn't have time to pull out the scythe, and his left foot became entangled in the roots of the tree, dragging him towards the woods to the left.

He stepped on the ground with more force with his left foot, so that his left foot sank into the ground by an inch, so that the roots of the tree could not pull his foot.

At this time, the people with five-colored flowers reacted, cut off the roots of the tree on their feet in the air, and all of them turned over.

Tian Sanguang also handled it easily, only Zhu Ping'an and the three of them were dragged away by the roots.

The mandala red two-handed sword slashed out, and the sword qi slashed across the ground, cutting off the roots of the tree that entwined Zhou Ping and Xiang Yingyi, and the two were grabbed by the collars by Camellia and dragged back to the middle of the team.

When Zhu Ping'an was dragged out ten meters away, the flywheel in Dong Ming's hand was thrown out, and the roots of the tree were also cut off, and he quickly rushed out and dragged Zhu Ping'an back.

"Hurry up, a lot of the plants here are carnivorous."

Mandala looked at Tian Sanguang and Ye Muchen in surprise, their reactions and strength surpassed ordinary people. But it was just a matter of looking at it more, and he took the lead in rushing over.

As soon as their ranks moved, the roots of the trees around them were no longer hidden, and they all waved and stretched out.

The mandala sword was fierce, and with a few swings, the roots of the trees in front of him were cut off, and they rushed out of the encirclement.

The Cave Immortal threw out the two-handed flywheel and cut off the roots of the trees that were close to each other.

In the rear, Thorn held a katana in his hand, but he could only see his arms dancing, but he didn't see the shadow of the sword, and the roots of the trees that came from behind were also cut off.

Seeing that these people were quite strong, Zhu Ping'an, Zhou Yiping, and Xiang Yingyi all breathed a sigh of relief.

After a wild run, before reaching the target building, Mandala was the first to jump on the oversized tree roots that covered the building and run towards it.

The building is covered by the roots of an oversized tree, and the entire building is encased in roots, leaving only part of the wall exposed.

They had already scouted that the only place they could get in was the window on the eighth floor, and the rest of the place was unless they had pierced through the oversized roots, but it was too time-consuming, and they couldn't wait.

The roots of the trees kept sticking out of the ground, but as soon as they came out, they were cut off by the Cave Control Flywheel.

Tian Sanguang touched his chin and said: "Yes, this kid's flywheel should belong to a five-star weapon, and it is really a local tyrant, even the Soul King may not be able to have a five-star weapon." ”

As soon as they finished speaking, they suddenly heard a strange noise, and everyone looked up and saw a tree root as thick as a pillar smashing down from above.

Thorn He, Camellia, and Yuuka pushed the three scavengers who had almost no combat power away at the same time, and Ye Muchen and Tian Sanguang reacted quickly and ran away by themselves.

Then the thick root struck where they had been standing, and with a bang, the ground was smashed, and they all felt the ground shake.

Before they could stand still, a second, thicker root slapped down from the top left corner.

Zhu Ping'an and Xiang Yingyi were pushed away just now, and they fell to the ground because they were too anxious, and it was impossible to have time this time.

The two screamed in horror and closed their eyes until death came. At this moment, the thorns jumped up, the katana flashed, and the roots of the tree as thick as the basin were actually cut off with a single sword.

Tian Sanguang smiled and said: "This girl's knife technique is not simple, well, yes, yes." ”

"Come up."

There was a mandala cry from above, and she had reached the eighth floor, tied the rope, and dropped the other end.

"Go up quickly, we'll stop these roots." Camellia said.

Zhu Ping'an was the first to run over, grabbed the rope and climbed up quickly, and the others followed closely.

Outdoor survival skills are a must for scavengers, and this climbing technique is naturally among them, and although they are ordinary people, their physical fitness is much better than that of ordinary people, so this kind of climbing is easy for them.

With a mandala guarding the top, thorns in the middle, and a flywheel controlling the ground to prevent the tiny roots from approaching, the five scavengers climbed up without encountering any danger.

It is said that it is eight floors, but in fact it is only four floors. Seeing them enter, Camellia and Yuuka grabbed the rope and jumped up quickly, four stories high, and jumped three times.

Then came the cave, then the thorns, and the mandala entered last, and as soon as they entered the building, the roots outside stopped attacking.

Zhou Yiping breathed a sigh of relief, stood at the window and looked out worriedly and asked, "Will those big tree roots smash through the house?" The houses here are so old that many of them have rotted and crumbled, and can easily collapse when hit. ”

"This building is part of the tree overhead, and they won't attack themselves." Camellia said.

Mandala and the others all turned on the lamp, glanced around to make sure that it was safe on time, and said, "We are sure that there are the herbs needed here, but the specific location, identification, and collection need to be completed by you, and we are only responsible for protecting your safety." ”

"Don't worry, it's a piece of cake. Let's go separate for the five of us, the ghost hand buds are all in an extremely cloudy and humid environment, and they can't shine in the sun, so they must be underground here, leave this to me. Tian Sanguang spoke, picked up the scythe and walked down.

"It's the most dangerous down there, I'll protect him." Mandala walked over and followed.

"Purple Yin Lingzhi grows in the range of tree roots, it should be in the corner of the super big tree root on the top layer, I'll go find this." Ye Muchen walked upstairs.

"I'm in charge of protecting him." The thorns followed.

Zhu Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief, the two most dangerous ones were chosen, and it would be much easier later, he said: "The purple core snakeberry grows on the stone wall and needs proper sunlight, so it won't grow underground, it should be here on the fifth and sixth floors." I'll go find this. ”

Dong Ming nodded and said, "Then I'll protect you." ”

Zhou Yiping said: "The ground fairy grass needs weak sunlight, and at the same time, the surrounding area needs a humid environment. It's just the two of us, let's split up. ”

Xiang Yingyi nodded, Camellia followed Zhou Yiping, Yuuka followed Xiang Yingyi, and the five teams started to work separately.

Ye Muchen walked into the staircase passage, the stairs here were all moss, dark and damp, and they were also very slippery, and one might roll down the stairs if he was not careful.

Although the alien beasts are dangerous, in fact, there are not a few people who fall to their deaths in the outdoors, and even eat poisonous fruits.

Thorn followed Ye Muchen without saying a word, and Ye Muchen was not a person of many words, the two of them walked up quietly like this, and even the particularly light footsteps could be heard clearly.

After walking about four floors, suddenly there was an exclamation from below. Ye Muchen immediately stopped, frowned and asked, "This voice seems to be a mandala, don't you want to take a look?" ”

"My mission is to protect you, the mandala is very strong, you don't need to worry, you just need to find the purple yin lingzhi." Thorn said with a cold face.

Ye Muchen nodded, walked up, and said at the same time: "This environment is very suitable for the survival of insects, you pay more attention to this aspect, even if some vines come in, there will not be too many, I should be able to protect myself." ”

"This is my mission, and I don't need you to worry about it." Thorn said a word and was speechless.

Ye Muchen shook his head helplessly, and kindly reminded him that this woman could end the topic better than himself.

When they reached the top, they were faced with rusty iron doors, which would be useless even if they had a key.

Without waiting for Ye Muchen to say, Thorn stepped forward and drew the knife directly, but before he could see the shadow of the knife, the iron door was cut smoothly, revealing a half-meter-high hole, and the others were blocked by thick tree roots.

Ye Muchen approached cautiously, touched the root of the tree with a special sickle, and saw that there was no reaction, so he approached and used the tip of the sickle to cut through the outer skin of the root, and said with a sigh of relief when he saw the tissue inside: "Fortunately, this is the dead body of a mutated plant, the root used to absorb nutrients, and it will not move." ”

Thorn didn't respond, and just crouched down and crawled out of the hole.

He shook his head and climbed out, there was about a passage of more than two meters, and immediately after climbing out, he felt a strong wind blowing, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned by the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Although the whole city is covered with plants, when you look at it from a high place, you feel that it is very beautiful, and it feels like a picture that can only be seen in a movie scene.

But before he could sigh, there was a reminder of thorns in his ears.

He turned around and looked up, and saw a super tree, feeling like an ant, looking up at the sky, almost all of it was blocked by the canopy, and the sunlight could not penetrate through the leaves.

"Still stunned! This is the root of those thick trees. Thorn clenched his katana, and more than a dozen tree roots appeared around him, and if he was hit, he would definitely be smashed into meat sauce.
