Chapter 0048: Expanding Gray Pineces

A few survivors cautiously circled the two half-collapsed residential buildings.

On the one hand, I am worried about whether the residential building will collapse completely, and on the other hand, whether the monster that gnaws at the bones will emerge, and the unknown is always panicking.

After turning around, no danger was found.

Everyone guessed a little relieved, Zhao Hai wiped the unnecessary sweat on his forehead, and said: "Let's count how many human bones there are on the ground, I always feel that the location of these bones is rather weird, you see, under the residential buildings, especially under the windows, there are the most bones, and the exits of the protective wall are also the most." ”

Song Jiahai's eyes rolled and he came to his senses: "I guess, the survivors here may have suddenly encountered monsters, many of the survivors living in the building jumped off the building directly, and the others planned to flee outside, so the exit is the one with the most bones...... However, there are only about 30 human bones here, which is a bit less, and there are more than 20 bones for cats and dogs. ”

There is no standard for whether there are people living on Tree Island and how many people will survive.

Song Jiahai was just judging by the standards of Guohuai Tree Island, and felt that the number of human bones on Pine Tree Island was very small. However, judging from the bones of suspected cats and dogs, there should be no fewer survivors here. After all, the cats and dogs who survived the cataclysm rarely knew that Tree Island was safe, and they didn't know where they had gone.

The island is so big, and there are only a few cats and dogs.

After a while, Ma Jun finished counting the bones: "The residential building didn't dare to go up, there are a total of thirty-seven human bones on the ground, all of which are complete." There are a total of 21 bones of cats and dogs, which are also relatively complete. There is standing water in the potholes, which is also covered by the storm ice chips, and there is dust on the bones, presumably before the storm ice chips died. ”

"The point is, where the radiation is shrouded, there is no environment for bacteria to breed, how did these corpses turn into bones?"

"What ate you?"

"What can gnaw bones so clean?"

Several survivors, crouching next to a cat bone, studied carefully to find out why the bone appeared.

Xu Huai is also observing the white bones, one by one human bones, if in the society before the cataclysm, as long as one appears, I am afraid it will cause a lot of panic, and it will make headlines in an instant. And now, so many skeletons are lying on the ground, I don't know how long no one cares.

Ideation is not afraid of dirt or poison, Xu Huai directly fiddled with the cat bones and participated in the discussion: "The shape of the bones is more distorted, indicating that you have struggled before your death?" ”

Zhao Hai and the others nodded: "It should be, every bone is relatively twisted and dies normally, it shouldn't be like this." ”

"There was not a trace of carrion on the bones, it was not natural decay, it must have been eaten. It's definitely not a big creature that can gnaw bones so cleanly...... It may be microorganisms, or insects, such as maggots. But considering the struggle, I think it's caused by insects. ”

Xu Huai said his inference, he now likes to think, quite Sherlock Holmes style.

"Insects?" Liu Cunxu didn't believe it, "There are still insects alive now?" ”

After the cataclysm, there are not many living creatures in the poison area, and only a few mutant beasts have been discovered. Others, such as insects, birds, snakes, and fish, have not yet been found.

Human survivors, surviving cats and dogs, and surviving rats are the most surviving creatures at present.

"We haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that there are no survivors, in short, be careful, the insects that can gnaw people alive are definitely very dangerous, I don't know if they are still on Pine Tree Island." Xu Huai warned.

"Hearing you say that, I think of marching ants...... Hopefully we're making a fuss. ”

There are many inferences, but the real reason is anyone's guess.

After studying for a while, the survivors no longer wasted time, and prepared to climb the stairs to pick the gray energy fruit - this energy fruit, named "gray pine cone" by Xu Huai, sounded like a series of silver fruit and green locust fruit.

"Be careful to climb, this building is unstable and will collapse at any time."

"Don't worry, I'm Ma Jun climbing trees, I really haven't met an opponent, just my muscles, I can climb trees with one hand!" Ma Jun boasted as he climbed the pine trees along the dilapidated residential buildings.

He had several bags hanging from him, as well as a bundle of rope.

Liu Cunxu also followed the tree, he was relatively thin, but he was very athletic and not slow. When he arrived at a branch, he immediately used his mental power to pick the gray pine cones on the branches one by one and handed them to Ma Jun, who was holding the bag. A bag was filled, and Ma Jun put the bag down with a rope.

Xu Huai immediately took the bag and poured a bag of gray pine cones into his carriage.

Then can't wait to try one.

The method of absorbing energy is the same, it is extremely skillful for him, but in an instant, the radiant energy contained in the gray pine cone has been absorbed by him.

This energy is very thin, and after absorption, it does not seem to bring any obvious effect.

At least he didn't feel it.

"Don't worry, I also ate a lot of green locust fruit before I noticed its effect, and I should eat more gray pine cones." is not afraid of waste at all, Xu Huai eats green locust fruits one by one.

The pine trees are so huge, and there are so many gray pine cones on the trees that they can't be eaten at all.

When he ate twenty of them, Xu Huai suddenly noticed that the radiation energy of the gray pine cone brought about the effect - the scope of his mental power expanded!

Originally.

With the blessing of the Silver Fruit and the Green Acacia Fruit, the range of his mental power expanded to 2.36 meters, and has been stagnant ever since.

Now he could feel that the range of his mental power had finally expanded again, and it had expanded to 2.37 meters, although it was only 0.01 meters, that is, a centimeter of progress, but for Xu Huai, it was still an earth-shattering joy.

"I knew that the energy fruit would not disappoint me, eat!"

When others pick fruit, he eats it violently.

In just one hour, he ate more than 300 gray pine cones, and the range of his mental power expanded to 2.53 meters, and his strength did not change.

The expansion of the range means that the "range" has increased, and the combat effectiveness has been qualitatively improved.

"Xu Huai, how's it going?" Song Jiahai asked curiously, he had just carried a bag of gray pine cones onto the muck truck, and mashed a few gray pine cones and added them to Zhu Gui and Li Fei's fuel tanks, so that they could feel the same feelings.

Xu Huai smiled.

What came out of the Demon Change S2 speaker was a sneer, and no one could hear the emotional change from his voice: "The effect of the gray pine cone is to increase the range of mental power, and my mental power has expanded a lot...... As for the effect on you, I have to let Professor Tao study it. ”

Song Jiahai touched his chin: "Increase the range of mental power, so to speak, Liu Cunxu, this kid is going to be embarrassed." ”

Zhao Hai was very disappointed: "Is it just to increase the range of mental power, alas, it would be great if I could increase the resistance of the lightning wave, you abilities can't realize it, as an ordinary person, how annoying it is to be beaten by the lightning wave!" ”

Xu Huai thought to himself, at least you can still be humane, fight night and night, the car can shake and fall apart, and he can only sigh at the steel.

Suppress a little cluttered thoughts, and continue to bury your head in dealing with gray pine cones.

He has to hurry up and get stronger every minute!
