477 Blood Mist Swamp
Ning Qingyun looked at the place where the withered blood tree had taken root, where it was a soft mud pool with blisters, he took out a thick rope from the gem space, lassoed the tree, and pulled it upwards hard, the tree did not move at all.
Ning Qingyun was born with divine power, he could easily pull up a tree before he cultivated, and after cultivating, his strength was even better, how could he not pull out a tree that grew in a wetland?
Maybe it was because he was suspended in the air at the moment, unable to use all his strength, Ning Qingyun thought of this, and slowly landed on the ground not far away with the rope.
After being down-to-earth, pull hard, this time, the withered blood tree was quickly pulled to tilt in the direction of Ning Qingyun, Ning Qingyun saw this situation, continued to exert force, and listened to the "bang", the rope holding the withered blood tree broke, Ning Qingyun was not in a hurry, and fell backwards.
Just as he was about to stand up with his hands on the ground, "pop", something hit his transparent helmet, fell to the ground along the helmet, and disappeared into the ground.
That thing appeared suddenly, and disappeared quickly, fortunately, the cultivator's five senses were sensitive, and Ning Qingyun had already clearly seen that it was a pale red bug, with a slender and hard body, covered with flaky scale armor, a pair of small transparent wings on its back, and a hideous mouthpart growing on its head.
Ning Qingyun looked closely and found that there were many of these reddish insects in and out of the muddy ground in the sticky wetland, and Ning Qingyun could be sure that he had not found these insects before, and these insects seemed to have appeared after he pulled out the trees.
"Smack, smack," his head was hit by insects one after another, and he was blocked by his clothes and helmet, this kind of insect body seemed to be able to integrate with the environment here, and the flight speed was fast and silent, although Ning Qingyun's senses were sensitive, he still couldn't detect the trajectory of the insect's flight, this dead blood tree was only slightly tilted, and so many insects came out, if he really wanted to uproot it, would he need to face a sea of insects.
The robes, boots, and helmets he wears, although they all have protective functions, I am afraid they can't withstand the attack of the sea of insects.
This large area of dead forest, it is impossible to have only this dead blood tree, Ning Qingyun saw that the sun was sinking and decided to continue walking forward to investigate the situation.
The further you go, the more the trees become thinner, the blood mist is getting thicker and thicker, the solid land is getting less and less, there are more and more blood mist swamps bubbling with water bubbles, and there are some dead trees lying in the swamp, which looks like they will soon be swallowed up by the swamp and become part of the swamp, maybe this is the reason for the sparse trees!
Ning Qingyun used the flypack to rope through this blood mist swamp, along the way he saw at least ten dead blood trees, there were three, there were four and five branches, each dead blood tree would be separated by a large swamp, every time he passed by the dead blood tree, he cut off a branch, put it into the gem space, and then quickly left.
Ning Qingyun finally found a solid ground when the jetpack warned of low fuel for the third time, and he landed down to fill the fuel tank of the jetpack, at this time he found that the backpack was of a different color, took off his gloves and touched the surface of the jetpack, and retracted his hand the moment it was hot.
The jetpack was used continuously, overloaded, and it was scary hot at this time, because the robe had the function of heat insulation, and he didn't even notice it.
This kind of jetpack has a lot of weapons in the batch of weapons he hid before the end of the world, all of which were obtained abroad, but unfortunately he can't get it now, and the jetpack he is using now is exchanged for a lot of money in the trading center, only this one, if it is broken, in the environment of the dead forest, it is really a bit troublesome.
The jetpack was temporarily unusable, so Ning Qingyun cut down a lot of dead trees, and used ropes to connect these dead trees together to make a raft and walk in the blood mist swamp.
The swamp was muddy, and Ning Qingyun's speed of advancing with the raft immediately slowed down, but judging from the change in the color of the sky, it was not far from the end of the dead forest.
When Ning Qingyun was walking in the blood mist swamp, he was attacked by many insects, and Ning Qingyun counterattacked with a steel needle attached to the annihilation aura, killing many insects.
The surrounding dead trees gradually became denser, and the area of the swamp gradually decreased, and it seemed that it was on the edge of the dead forest again.
Ning Qingyun threw away the raft and walked forward on foot, and after walking a few steps, he found some abandoned vehicles in front of him, half of which were stuck in the swamp, and the other half were on solid ground, these vehicles had off-road vehicles, off-road motorcycles, and several single-person miniature armored vehicles used in the army.
These are supposed to be the vehicles used by the expedition sent by the army, and the vehicles are thrown here, and there are a lot of bomb weapons on the vehicles, and even a few camouflage backpacks, what about the expedition members?
Ning Qingyun searched around, and found a torn protective suit in the swamp not far away, a relatively complete mountain camouflage uniform, and a few dry bones were shaken off in that dress.
It seems that the expedition members have been more than lucky.
Judging from the situation at the scene, there was no trace of a fight at the scene, and the weapons loaded on the car were not even used, even if the vehicles were impassable because of the swamp ahead, it was impossible for the expedition members to abandon the car and walk, and they could not even bring weapons and backpacks, right?
Judging from the size of the vehicle, there were at least 20 members of this expedition team, and it stands to reason that even if the members of the expedition who got out of the vehicle were in danger, it would not cause a situation of total annihilation.
Although Ning Qingyun was puzzled in his heart, his hands were not idle, these vehicles and the weapons loaded on them were still intact, but they could not be wasted, when Ning Qingyun was collecting things, he found a diary in the single armored car, the date on the last page was recorded more than a month ago, and the handwriting on it was scribbled, telling their experience in general, this team was the second group of expeditions sent by the military, well-equipped, but not far from them into the dry woods, they were unknowingly attacked by red worms, The protective suit could not resist the bite of the redworm at all, and the redworm burrowed into the body, causing his companion to hallucinate, and unconsciously walked into the blood-colored swamp around the dead blood tree, and was swallowed by the swamp, and the person who wrote the diary had also been attacked by the redworm, hallucinated, and wrote this diary with the last consciousness.
Ning Qingyun felt heavy after seeing it, when he used the raft to walk in the blood mist swamp before, he had already consumed a lot of spiritual energy in order to deal with the red worm, if he wanted to complete the task of taking a dead blood tree with roots, it would inevitably attract a sea of insects to attack, should this tree be pulled out?
