Returning to the armored car, the stop-and-go team continued to move forward, Wu Rui found that Xi Fu's state was a little wrong, in line with the principle of having a good relationship with the leader, Wu Rui asked with concern: "Team leader, you seem to have something on your mind?" ”
Xi Fu smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
He didn't have a heart, but it suddenly occurred to him that if he sent the specimens he had collected back to the laboratory and tested the same ingredients in them, he might be able to figure out what the strange tree was for.
And the key is likely to be in the liquid coming out of the canopy, and if the composition is similar to egg white, then there is a high probability that something will be cultivated or hatched.
On the other hand, if the sugar content or energy matter is relatively high, it is likely that the aliens have prepared food and grass for further invasion of the earth.
As for the improvement of the global environment...... It can kill all the nearby plants, which seems to make the same sense.
He was a little anxious to go back, but he couldn't bring it up because the task had not been completed.
Xi Fu couldn't help but glance at Wu Rui, thinking about whether he could make a suggestion to return through Wu Rui's mouth, but thinking of the bad relationship between Wu Rui and Ye Han, he immediately dispelled this idea.
At this time, the team was not far from the impact point, there were more and more strange trees around, and the strange trees were very adaptable, in addition to the soil, Ye Han also saw a few strange trees parasitic on the trunk, and couldn't help but sigh at the strong survivability of this thing.
The closer they got to the impact point, the higher the vigilance of the fighters, and in order to ensure safety, Ye Han even did not hesitate to reduce the speed of progress and expand the warning distance by a few points.
Just as they were about to reach the point of impact, the fighters on the right flank suddenly shouted: "Captain, there are giant worms!" ”
"What bugs? Is it dangerous? Ye Han immediately asked.
If they encounter a dangerous giant insect, the fighters will not shout at all, but shoot them directly.
"A small beetle, with no signs of attacking...... It's going to you! The warrior replied.
Little beetle?
Ye Han blinked suspiciously, and suddenly saw the grass not far away move, and then a unicorn fairy about fifty or sixty centimeters long crawled out of the grass.
This thing can account for half of the body length with horns alone, a total length of fifty or sixty centimeters, it is indeed a small guy, and before the outbreak of the insect plague, this unicorn fairy will definitely be able to sell for a good price in the pet market.
Ye Han didn't plan to shoot because of a giant insect that was not threatening, and was about to tell the soldiers not to shoot, when the beetle had already burrowed into a clump of grass near the armored vehicle.
At this moment, the situation changed abruptly, and in the half-human-tall grass, a few tentacles suddenly poked out, and quickly tied the carapace firmly.
Ye Han had never seen this, and subconsciously picked up his rifle and held his breath to aim at the messy grass.
The beetle bound by the tentacles struggled hard, and the horn kept writhing, but no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't break free from the tentacles.
After a short while, the beetle stopped struggling and seemed to be dead.
Ye Han moved a few steps sideways to change the angle, and sure enough, he saw a white egg with a diameter of nearly one meter in the messy grass.
In order to prevent accidents, Ye Han gave up the idea of approaching and observing, turned on the radio and said: "Pay attention, all units, try not to get close to the grass......
"Oops...... Hey, what the hell is this? Suddenly, there was a phrase on the radio.
"What's the situation?" Ye Han was shocked, and said in his heart that it wouldn't be such a coincidence, right?
"Captain, you said it was late, something got around my foot...... How is it an egg? The voice on the radio was astonished.
"Don't move, I'll be right now!" Ye Han said that he quickly ran to the place of the incident, and soon saw a soldier lying on the ground, his feet bound by the tentacles of white eggs, and a thicker tentacle, constantly dotting on the armor.
Those tentacles are very similar to those found in the canopy of strange trees.
Ye Han suddenly remembered that the strange trees that were first discovered were relatively tall, but the closer they got to the impact point, the shorter the strange trees became, and it was already difficult to see the strange trees growing up in this place, but instead found white eggs hidden in the grass.
That is to say, the farther away from the impact point of the strange tree, the earlier it takes root, thinking of the hobby of white eggs catching giant insects, Ye Han suddenly had an idea: Could it be that the giant insects have any nutrients necessary for white eggs in their bodies, and they must absorb this nutrient white eggs in order to take root and grow?
If you think about it this way, you can explain why the strange trees on the periphery are taller, and the closer you get to the impact point, the fewer the strange trees are - the giant insects are all caught by the white eggs around the outside, and if the giant insects are not close to the impact point, how can the white eggs near the impact point take root?
But how did the white eggs grow into the trees?
However, these thoughts only flashed in Ye Han's mind, and he immediately came back to his senses and smiled: "You kid won the lottery?" What are you waiting for? I don't know how to cut with a knife? ”
The warrior drew his saber and cut off the tentacles that wrapped around him one by one, but the tentacles on the white egg did not know how to flinch at all, even if it was a severed whisker that was detached from the main body, it continued to wrap around the warrior's ankle.
"How? Does this thing have a lot of strength? Ye Han asked curiously.
"It's not small, at least it can't be broken." Said the warrior.
Can't break free with the power of power armor? It's not just a matter of strength, the tentacles themselves have to be strong enough.
Ye Han pulled up the warrior who fell to the ground: "Okay, keep moving, all units pay attention, stay away from the white eggs!" ”
This time's warning was quite timely, but Ye Han soon found that his warning was redundant.
What was superfluous was not the warning itself, but the closer to the impact point, the more white eggs there were, and the more and more soldiers were entangled by white eggs, Ye Han had to order the soldiers to board the armored car, sit on the roof of the armored car and continue to move forward.
Not only were the fighters entangled by the white eggs, but even the wheels of the armored vehicle could not escape the entanglement of the white eggs, but with the support of strong power, the white egg tentacles that entangled the tires were easily crushed by the armored vehicles.
When there were still a few hundred meters away from the impact point, there were so many white eggs on the ground that one could be seen every five or six steps, and it was not until this time that Ye Han and the others found that the volume of the white eggs was also large and small, and the small ones were only the size of melons, most of them were between seventy centimeters and one meter, and occasionally they could see big guys that went straight past one meter.
Ye Han was still wondering how the white eggs grew on the tree,
At this time, the impact point was far away, and a large number of fallen trees could already be seen in the distance, but the line of sight could not pass through the dense canopy of the primeval forest, and only a lot of white eggs could be seen on the trees that hugged the branches with their tentacles.
There's no need to guess how this thing got to the tree.
Further on, even the white eggs on the trees are incredible, when the armored car passes, there are actually white eggs that let go of the branches and fall on the armored car, entangled the soldiers on the car, and even a few white eggs were hung on the barrel, swaying with the march of the armored car, like a decoration deliberately hung on the barrel.
