Chapter Eighty-Seven: Strange Plants
Not even being able to breathe sounds incredible, and even in a world of mutants where miracles are common, it's a little unbelievable. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But the facts are in front of you.
When the flashlight flickered in the dark room in the basement, everyone saw an unforgettable scene.
In the middle of the basement grows a large plant with a trunk as thick as two people hugging each other, and branches almost as thick as an adult's arm.
If it weren't for the limited height and area of the basement, I am afraid that this strange plant would be even larger.
What's even more unexpected is that on this unknown plant, there are several figures.
The reason why it is said to be "falling" is because the person is almost hanging from a branch that is not dense.
"What the hell!" The young laser eye was startled by what he saw.
Hank instinctively transforms into a beast, ready to deal with possible changes.
After waiting for a few minutes, seeing that there was no movement, several people looked left and right in confusion, not knowing whether to walk in or not.
After all, the stuff inside is just too weird, it's completely beyond their understanding of the worldview, even for the omnipotent mutants.
Professor X couldn't sit still at first, and he quickly scanned the basement with his mental power.
In fact, he had already done it in advance before opening the heavy iron door, but now he had to confirm it again.
"There were eight of them." Professor X opened his eyes, his gaze slightly tired.
"Professor, are you alright?" Qin was thoughtful, and immediately noticed Professor X's malaise, and stepped forward to ask with concern.
Professor X waved his hand, indicating that he was fine: "It's a pity that my mental strength is too overdrawn to communicate with those eight people. ”
It is not easy for Professor X to retain the mental power scan, and it is impossible for everyone to expect anything from Professor X.
However, Hank's eyes were quick, and after a slight sweep, he found that the number of people hanging on the tree was exactly eight.
"I'll go in first."
Just when everyone was confused, Yun Qi stepped into the basement first.
"Be careful, there may be something going on inside!" Hank shouted nervously.
Yun Qi walked in on his own, not even taking a flashlight.
In the eyes of the X-Men, Yun Qi's move was too bold. Who knows if there are other dangers they didn't expect in the dark basement.
Yun Qi just said lightly: "I trust Professor X's judgment. ”
In Yun Qi's opinion, since the number of people hanging on the tree matched the number of people after Professor X's mental power scanning, it at least showed that the eight people were all bitter masters.
What's more, although he didn't know much about the situation of this Blood Alliance team, he still knew a little about the style of the reincarnation: anyway, no boring reincarnator would risk being surrounded and put himself in a dead place like a basement.
Of course, it is impossible to say that there is no risk at all.
It's just that there is still a puppeteer on the side of the Blood Alliance.
If there were a few humanoid puppets in ambush, it would have been possible to avoid Professor X's telepathy.
Therefore, he still made preparations, for example, when everyone was attracted by the huge plant just now, he put on nano electronic sunglasses for himself without others noticing, turned on the infrared scan inside, and quickly scanned the basement in all directions.
"Sure enough, the Blood Alliance didn't send anyone to make any small moves here." Yun Qi was immediately sure that there were no so-called puppet warriors here, let alone other dangers.
If there was any danger, it would be the eerie giant plant and the eight people who fell on it.
Through the infrared, Yun Qi quickly came to the nearest person.
It was a sturdy white man, dressed in a police uniform, but somewhat different from a regular American police officer.
"It should be the medics." Yun Qi quickly noticed the holster of the gun held around the man's waist and quickly understood his identity.
The medical police are actually the security guards assigned by the hospital itself, but the difference is that security guards in the United States can carry firearms, as long as they have a legal gun license.
"Dealing with a small medical policeman, in such a cruel way!" Yun Qi glanced at it a few times and understood what was happening in front of him.
He waved behind him, signaling that everything was safe.
Lasereye and the others walked into the basement with a worried heart.
"What the hell is going on?" Laser eye walked in and found that all the people who were "hanging" inside were sturdy men, mainly medical police.
Just as Cyclops was about to take a closer look, a medical policeman closest to him suddenly opened his eyes, which immediately frightened Cyclops into sitting on the ground, almost turning on the laser rays to fight back.
Fortunately, Jean, who was standing closest to Laser Eye, comforted him with telepathy in time, so it didn't make a big mistake.
"Don't be nervous, these people won't hurt you." Yun Qi's explanation further calmed Cyclops' heart.
However, when he realized what was happening in front of him, Cyclops felt like he couldn't believe his eyes.
Because the eight people hanging on the tree in front of him are actually still alive.
This point, in fact, Professor X has already given the answer, because he can sense the spiritual power of the eight people inside, so naturally, these eight people cannot be dead.
"So, they're all victims?" Jean asked suddenly.
Yun Qi nodded.
"That's weird, why didn't they react at all when we opened the door? I thought they were all dead. Besides, if they are alive, why are they so strangely hung on the tree, motionless? ”
The question of the piano is also a place of confusion for everyone.
Yun Qi said: "It's very simple, because they are not hung on a tree, but a tree grows on them. ”
In a word, a terrifying truth is revealed.
After careful observation, everyone quickly realized that what Yun Qi said was not wrong at all.
It seems that these eight people are "hanging" on a tree, but in essence, where the branches are connected to them, are completely embedded.
If you look at it a little more poisonously, you will find that the part that is "inserted" into the body of the eight people is a bit like the rhizome of a plant, rather than the branches and leaves.
Still a little unconvinced, Cyclops tried to get one of them off the branch.
As soon as he moved the part of the plant that had been inserted into his body, the man screamed loudly with a twisted face.
Although I couldn't hear what he was calling, it was clearly painful.
“fuck! It's really on them! "Now, the laser eye is a long insight.
"Then can they still be saved?" The kind-hearted Jean cares more about their life and death.
"This ......" The well-informed Hank looked dazed, it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Professor X was silent.
In the end, everyone's focus was on Yun Qi.
Yun Qi shrugged: "Well...... It's beyond my power. (To be continued.) )
