Chapter 65: The Man-Eating Forest
Damp and dark, there is a rotten breath everywhere, and all life is careful to protect the energy in its body.
The life that can survive here, even the most inconspicuous and seemingly ordinary grass, may turn into a man-eating beast in the next moment.
This is not a place where vulnerable humans can set foot in, let alone alone.
Ouyang Banxia didn't remember how long he had been on the run, and of course he didn't know what kind of place this was, only that there were fewer and fewer pursuers behind him.
It's been a few days since I've seen the Zerg's pursuers, and I've probably been devoured by this devilish forest for a long time, turned into its nourishment, and devoured to the point that there are no bones left!
Ouyang Banxia had never known that such a place still existed on the Sea Lotus Star, as if all the most terrifying beings in the entire planet had gathered here and died here.
It was a dead place, where he had never seen a newborn hatchling, not even a single leaf on a plant, and his weak appearance could only be a deadly trap and a disguise.
Ouyang Banxia walked aimlessly towards the depths of the dense forest, not in a hurry or slow, the voice in his head had not moved at all since last night, no matter how Ouyang Banxia shouted, there was no response.
Tell him directly that he must not stop here, even if he takes a short rest, he may not be able to sleep here forever and become a part of this devil's forest.
The newly grown arm seems to be the same as before, and Ouyang Banxia has long been used to it, although sometimes he always feels that this newly grown arm has an indescribable strangeness, but it grows on his body, that is his arm, and he has no reason to dislike it.
Ouyang Banxia didn't understand why the Zerg behind him was desperately trying to snatch Ai Bingtai's pendant, and he didn't understand why the voice in his head was so nervous about it, and he didn't even hesitate to expose it himself.
Just when Ouyang Banxia was distracted, a dead old vine beside him shot at him, and the withered yellow vine body instantly rose with sharp barbed thorns and long thorns, mercilessly tearing him to pieces.
Ouyang Banxia had already been surprised by this, without a trace of panic, he stretched out his newly grown left hand, blocked it in front of him, and shook it backhand, and there was a golden stone-like impact and friction sound between the palm of his hand and the hook and thorn on Gu Teng's body, breaking the countless sharp and hard barbs on its body.
No matter how the withered vine struggled, he couldn't escape, and with a little force, Ouyang Banxia pinched the menacing withered vine into pieces, leaving only the roots to escape.
The old trees and strange flowers around them suddenly quieted down, letting the breeze blow in the forest, like the most docile pet, without the slightest disobedience.
Ouyang Banxia didn't have the slightest slack because of this, and the most uncontrollable ones were often those losers whose lives were coming to an end and couldn't get the sunshine, and they had to fight to the death.
Ouyang Banxia didn't know what kind of creature the dead vines in front of him were shattered and still writhing and jumping, but this didn't prevent him from eating them all cleanly.
However, he still has to leave a little residue for the spectators around him, which is a tacit understanding formed by everyone here for a long time, and those who see it have a share.
The bright green vine juice remained on his lips, strange and bewitching, but here it seemed so natural, so natural, without any sense of disobedience.
There is no one here, so naturally no one will care.
Ouyang Banxia wanted to find a safe place, a place where he could rest and sleep.
Whoever called him he was generally a man, although sleeping was not a good habit here.
He was already tired.
He needs to rest.
Ouyang Banxia didn't know why the voice in his head wanted him to come here, and after arriving here, he refused to say why.
Obviously, it didn't believe in Ouyang Banxia, just as Ouyang Banxia had never believed in it.
But he had no choice but to listen to it.
He didn't want to die and couldn't die.
Before the voice in Ouyang Banxia's mind sounded again, for him, the best result was to keep going, without any accidents, and he didn't need any gifts.
Ouyang Banxia knew that here, all abnormalities, unusual, would be fatal.
It's just a pity that the world is unsatisfactory, nine times out of ten.
Even if you don't ask too much of it, it doesn't mean that it will satisfy you and fulfill your small requests.
When he smelled the faintest aroma in the air, Ouyang Banxia subconsciously wanted to run away behind him with all his might.
But it was still too late, Ouyang Banxia only had this flash of consciousness, and before his body could react, he had already lost consciousness.
Like a walking corpse, step by step, slowly moving forward.
Ouyang Banxia, who was already defenseless, could only be reduced to the dinner of the hungry all kinds of ferocious and strange plants around him, and he would not be spared in the slightest.
But the strange thing was that none of the plants approached Ouyang Banxia, but instead they all scattered and fled like tigers and snakes, far away from the way.
With Ouyang Banxia as the center, a circular life desert area was formed, and only that strange fragrance continued to gather around Ouyang Banxia.
The humans on the Sea Lotus Star will not know how many various Zerg are lurking and hiding on the Sea Lotus Star.
I don't know when, outside the Devil Forest where Ouyang Banxia was, countless insects had gathered, from small insects with less than thick hair, to behemoths like mountains, all arranged in an orderly manner, with sharp fangs, hard shells, and poisonous tearing all mouthparts.
Standing on the tallest giant Zerg warrior, Zhang Gang Cannon waited for all the power of the Zerg hidden on the Sea Lotus Star to gather in a steady stream.
Before coming to the Sea Lotus Star again, even he didn't know that their Zerg had left such a huge amount of power here, and now they had to use it all.
Thinking back to the time when he left, the noble and indifferent queen, the heavy and serious gaze in the emerald eyes, the desperate madness that even he did not understand.
He understood that before he saw the pendant, he who had seen the queen alive would not be spared anything but death, and his only extravagant hope was to die a more happy death.
The forces gathered here now are able to destroy all the other cities of the Terrans on the planet Lotus except for the Star Capital.
But he wasn't satisfied, he didn't want the slightest surprise, so he needed every ounce of strength.
He tracked down the traitor who had taken the pendant from the star capital, all the way to the terrifying forest ahead.
He doesn't know if the traitor is still alive?
Although it is unlikely, if he can catch him alive, he will definitely let that traitor enjoy the cruel and wonderful torture in the world.
The lowest, the dirtiest Zerg servant actually swooped him down, causing him to almost die in the forest in front of him.
He didn't know exactly how that traitor was going to get out of the control of the parasitic brain worm, but it didn't matter, this kind of loss of control was not uncommon.
He has never trusted those low-level disgusting protozoa, and the attendants who claim to be the mother goddess who explores the origin and fate of the Zerg are just some gods who cheat resources and energy.
He always puts on the appearance of a pretentious scholar, and always condescends with the sentence "My stupid compatriots, do you need my guidance?" ”。
Whenever he heard this, he always wanted to screw their heads off to see what kind of feces were inside, and why they could be so shameless.
When it comes to critical times, it is useless.
If it weren't for the brain worm they controlled getting out of control, he would have gotten the pendant and returned to the queen.
He never knew that there was such a place on the Sea Lotus Star, such a strange and strange place, it was reasonable to say that it was impossible not to attract the attention of the Zerg's secret agents.
The only possibility is that all the Zerg who entered here before are all dead, and there is not even a trace or signal left.
If it weren't for the cocoon left to him by the queen to save his life, even he wouldn't be able to escape from it with his whole body, let alone those weak Zerg spies.
Little by little, he was ready to push the forest flat, not even bothering to attract the attention of the Terran spaceship, he had already conveyed the situation here to the Queen.
The Queen's only order was to find the pendant at any cost.
Everything can be sacrificed for this, including his small life.
Zhang Gangcang, who was staring at the strange mountains and forests in front of him, suddenly let out a long howl, a loud hiss, and the human skin and clothes on his body were all burned out, turned into flying ashes, and blew away in the wind in the sky.
Zhang Gangcang, who went out to disguise, finally revealed his original appearance.
The two stout lower limbs stand upright like human legs, the two pairs of thin wings on the back are like four large knives, full of metallic luster, the emerald green compound eyes occupy the entire head, and the few places left are squeezed out of the stamen-like sharp sucker-like mouthparts, and the sickle-like forelimbs are like ordinary moon scimitars.
The Zerg Commander, who revealed the prototype, vividly showed the danger and strength of the Zerg, and every part and every inch of his body was full of danger, carefully designed for killing.
Under the leadership of the Zerg leader, the surging insect tide soon flooded the dense and humid forest in front of him, and all the weirdness and danger, under the fight of the Zerg who were not afraid of death, lost its mysterious veil and power like paper paste.
The Zerg Commander flew high in the air, not relaxing at all because of the smooth progress, and his intuition told him that it was not so simple here.
It was so unusual that it gave him the same sense of fear as he would face a queen.
If he had a choice, he would never have approached here, let alone attacked it like he did now.
Everything outside the forest, Ouyang Banxia didn't know anything.
Even if he knew, there was nothing he could do.
He still walked unhurriedly, towards the deeper part of the forest, little by little.
The quiet forest is silent, only the crisp creaking of dry bones being trampled, wandering back and forth.
