Chapter 71: Bacteria and White Blood Cells

During the mountaineering, there was no discomfort.

They have been very careful all the way, deliberately avoiding places where parasitic beasts and those bugs often haunt, so except for altitude sickness gradually acting on them, there are no other problems, but they have to stop little by little to trim, the higher they climb, the altitude sickness acts on the hunter to play a little uncomfortable.

If it is placed on ordinary people, the situation at this time may be even worse, and they may be wheezing for a few steps, which is why a monster like them can resist the force of altitude sickness. Some of the bugs that seem to be easy to deal with on the road, Rose will sit down one by one, and the six of them will work together to deal with one or two, and it is not bad to bring the corpse back to the association for medicine, and earn some extra extra money, after all, you can't suffer if you come.

In fact, here they all remember what happened before they set off, the 1,000 reward points that were deducted, they have to find a way to get together and hand them back, otherwise they will have to pay more reward points when they reach the specified sight, and the loss will be not small, so they have to be careful to deal with it and try to reduce the loss, so it is necessary to pay attention to the things around them.

The closer you get to the sky, the more intense the cold breath becomes, and the temperature drops, so even though you didn't care about it at first, it's probably the result of a difference in human constitution.

Although the hunters hesitate for physical reasons, their physical fitness is stronger than that of ordinary people, but it does not mean that they are fearless, in contrast, they are only afraid, which means that they are still individuals and creatures. They wrapped themselves in trench coats, windbreakers, and oxygen breathing masks and moved on.

The cold wind blew, mixed with sand and irritated the skin, as if countless needles had pierced the skin sharply, and no one could resist such pain. However, wearing a tight windbreaker reduces the resistance to the wind, and the windproof goggles only make the vision clearer, in contrast, in the case of night, the windproof goggles also have the function of night vision, as well as the oxygen breathing mask, a very small one, shining on the nose and mouth, the carbon dioxide and oxygen in it are converted to each other, and even with the mask, it can supply the trace elements needed to maintain.

It is impossible for a person to leave oxygen, and if he is constrained by oxygen, his ability to move will gradually become sluggish, and in severe cases, he may even suffer from temporary shock until he loses consciousness and dies.

The mask is designed to help them move in the space against hypoxic conditions, after all, the creatures that can survive in this low-oxygen environment must also have a good means.

After about three or four hours of walking, the oxygen mask can be used indefinitely, and there is a leaf and a dry charcoal in the main mask, which can help the conversion of carbon dioxide and oxygen to each other, and provide sufficient supply of trace elements needed for action, and soon reach the top of the mountain.

At this time, the temperature at the top of the mountain is already very low, and you can feel the cold chill of the forest caused by the cold breeze through the windbreaker, but the plants on that side are not affected by the low cold temperature at all, and the flowers and grass still bloom and grow on either side, and it still looks like the branches and leaves.

Rose glanced around at his surroundings and contrasted the impressions in his consciousness. When he turned around, he smiled at the person next to him, and his hand couldn't help but point to the shadow that glowed with a brown arc in the distance. The first thing I saw was the mushroom range, it was a giant tree wrapped in brown arc light, as everyone could see, it did look like a mushroom on the outside, but it was obviously a huge tree trunk, its leaves and branches stretched outward, growing infinitely, forming a positive and large area, and there seemed to be a structure of energy layer under this shadow.

If that's right, the mushroom is the tree, and it's not hard to imagine that many of the religions that influenced the world described the day the world was opened, when the heavens and the earth were bleak, and there was a huge trunk that held up the heavens and the earth, and life began to grow under the leafy branches.

One day, a primate climbed down from a tree, different from other beasts, this kind of primate gradually mastered wisdom in the future, they made props out of trees, armed themselves with stones, and learned to make fire with simple tools such as earth, stone, and wood, which should be the origin of human fortune, and human beings are ultimately intelligent creatures evolved from primate apes who climbed down from trees.

But even so, such rumors are a little hard to believe? Several people were around to look at the tree that had just emerged, in the depths of a dense jungle, a giant tree like a mushroom took root and sprouted on the ground, and the trees next to it also grew very tall, it took 10,000 years to grow into such a majestic tree, obviously, the existence of this mushroom-headed giant tree is taller than the group of trees around it, and the history is even older.

"The parasitic beasts here have the ability to destroy the world at every turn, it is much more terrifying than you think, we have to be more careful, don't even provoke the plants here, they can be psychic."

If it weren't for Rose's kind reminder, Xiong Tai would indeed have touched a strange-looking plant next to him, the plant is called the ghost cage plant, and the name of the plant in the earthly world is like a pitcher plant, which is the kind of devil grass that induces insects to enter by secreting a sweet smell, but in terms of its usual size, humans are not afraid of it at all, because it is too small.

But the plant in front of him looked about the size of a human, and Xiong Tai almost provoked it forward, but just as Xiong Tai was stopped, the plant was also awakened, opened its big mouth, and opened its fangs like a big flower, as if it was about to bite down from Xiong Tai's neck.

And although this plant is a plant, it is a carnivorous plant, and for the parasitic beasts or insects that occasionally run to the top of the mountain, I don't know how many plants like this are lurking in the grass outside.

Not to mention the existence of other world-destroying parasitic beasts that led directly to the center of the forest, which couldn't even get close.

"Be careful." Frey raised his hand and raised his sword as he was too fast to take a step.

Came to Xiong Tai's body, hugged Xiong Tai's waist, the long sword slashed out, and he couldn't see it clearly, the stem of the plant was directly cut off, and the plant also fell to the ground sickly, shivering dryly.

The plant's sharp teeth trembled, and then it fell to the ground as if it had lost its moisture.

At this moment, the grass suddenly trembled, and the silent rattan cocked.

"Uh~"

There was a shrill whistling sound, and the rattans rushed towards them as if they had eyes, and everyone present was a little uneasy.

In addition, there are some grasses that suddenly appear in the grass with the same appearance as the plant just now, the appearance of a large flower, and another huge bud that resembles a bully flower, and the stench swept at the same time, this is a ghost flower, the smell in the stench can make a good muscle aggravate aging, and some are man-eating flowers, which also have sharp teeth, which look very weird.

Everyone couldn't help but take a step back when they saw this, these plants all went berserk, although their movement range was limited, but such a huge number of even top hunter dojos might not be able to be cleaned up quickly.

Taking advantage of the fact that they were not yet surrounded, Frey raised his sword and split a pitcher plant behind him, although this grass was not lethal, but the closest was the original sin, and even the stem was cut off, and they were liberated from the shackles surrounded by layers.

"I didn't say I was going to kill it, how nice it would be if you weren't so impulsive."

Rose immediately returned to his fearful appearance, and ran at the front of the line, chattering incessantly.

"Rub, if you don't save you when you die, you're really not a brother." Xiong Tai shouted behind his back and ran along.

Seeing that they were helpless, the others had no choice but to fire two shots, dispose of the two plants at once, and immediately ran out.

They ran for a quarter of an hour before the army of plants behind them gradually disappeared.

In the distance, the sound of the rope could still be heard, and in the mountains ordinary sounds would be amplified, and the sound that emanated from the cracks in the stones might scare people to death.

"Click on people, one, two, three, four... Six, well, there were six people including me, yes, everyone was lucky in the misfortune," Frey's face returned to normal, and he responded immediately.

The others stared at Rose, who stared at them and motioned for them not to speak. He then grabbed a handful of white powder from his pocket and sprinkled it where they had been, and sprinkled a little bit of that strange white powder on each of them.

"What are you doing here, is that fun? I don't think it's time to play the game of sprinkling powder, right? I need to ask what the hell all that just now, can plants mutate? Can you also eat people and fall to the ground, who is the intelligent body bred by this planet? Frey wondered, but Rose didn't say anything and continued to sprinkle the powder with his head down, but because the other party didn't answer him in time, he immediately pushed Rose forward eagerly, causing the powder to spill on his collar.

Looking at the two people over there pushing and shouting, it was obvious that Rose, who spoke later, seemed much calmer than before.

"This is insect powder, the main ingredient is a sample made of cells collected from the inside of the mushroom, the ability can isolate the insects, isolate the breath, this main ability can also inhibit the sensitive sense of smell of the parasitic beast, but it is because the amount of cells collected by the mushroom is really small every time, not because it cannot be collected, mainly because the difficulty series is very high, because the tree is a living body, the king walks inside, the danger factor inside will become bigger and bigger, and I can't guarantee that this powder can fool those plants just now." Rose continued to respond: "In short, some plant legions can ignore the deterrent power of this medicinal powder, after all, they are the main structure of the mushroom, and the composition of the medicinal powder is just the strength of the cell structure of the mushroom, so there is nothing to be afraid of, you understand what I said, right?" It's dangerous here, and we still have such a meaningless quarrel, so we might as well try to find a way to survive and get a sample of the mushroom's cells. ”

"Okay, how do you get there?" Frey nodded and continued.

"It's pretty much the same, first of all, it's divided into three layers, the outside is the so-called plant legion you see, those plants can isolate all the creatures from slipping in, isolate eighty percent, and we'll soon encounter this section in the middle, it's the territory of the plant system and the parasitic beast department, the world-destroying parasitic beast can easily defeat a fully armed city, the harm caused by such a parasitic beast letting go of one of them is the world-destroying level, they are native, and the reason why they survive here depends on the symbiosis system of mushrooms, Give them a place to live, they will resist the invading creatures for the mushrooms, this intermediate stage will also exclude 19% of the creatures, the last part of the road is called Huangquan Road, there is no turning back, there is covered by fog, a little careless will fall into the abyss, to be honest, I don't know what is under the fog, but it is certainly not a good place to go, if you go there, you will definitely die, and you will not be able to come back. ”

No one could understand what Ross was saying, because it was so rare, and God knows how he learned about it, and it was an unbelievable thing that someone who hadn't experienced it could say lightly.

But that information doesn't seem to be fake, and it shouldn't be hiding yourself in your bones, and you think you're telling the truth, which is really bad.

"Okay, that's it, you lead the way, if the task is completed safely, even if I owe you a favor, you can do whatever you want me to do." Frey said.

"I don't want you to run naked, running around the city, even if it's favored, everyone is still a friend in the team, just give me a powerful weapon, this bow can't play all my strength, well, it's too outdated, I want that god to break the sun."

"Okay, the whole team's rewards are spent on you alone, isn't it too cunning, you bastard, what do you think of us?" Xiong Tai shouted angrily.

"Companion, then I can continue to protect you, maybe I have more information to exchange, if there is a suitable weapon in the future, you can also use it, I must exchange it for an exception, I am afraid that you will kick me away after completing the task, so I want a double insurance." Rothine said.

"No one will do this to you, you can rest assured that I am here, I agreed to your request, but I hope we will live up to you, and you will not fail us, I hope that in the future, I will not disguise that cowardly, greedy and afraid of death, I have noticed it, everything is pretended by you." Frey responded coldly.

"Yo, it's really worthy of being the head of the group, okay, I understand, I won't abandon you, as long as you can use me, I will also have a place to rely on you, we each take what we need, this team can be established, otherwise, this rookie team is estimated to die in the middle, without my guidance, there is no way to go to Huangquan Road, that road is said to be open regularly, and there is only one exit, take a wrong step, and slowly consume it in that empty space." Ross responded.

"You know a lot, okay, that's it." Frey nodded his head.

"Forehead~ I don't understand, I don't want to understand at all, what the hell is this, I can't stand it." Xiong Tai muttered next to him, obviously lowering his voice and roaring, such a move made people want to go up and kick him, but after all, he was the most burly man on the team, and he was the kind of straightforward person who punched him and absolutely demanded something in return.

So I didn't pay attention to him, because I didn't pay attention to him, but naturally I became very calm, and after a while I became silent, and walked slowly behind everyone.

The sound of footsteps was clearly clear, and the snoring sound from everyone's oxygen masks was thickening, after all, spreading out could also arouse suspicion of something, and obviously, they would slowly follow behind. I want to see what this is.

However, in fact, they have long discovered this, although through the oxygen mask, when they are hunters, they should have a strong awareness, which is the consciousness that should be there when they are entered, even if they are just starting hunters, these footsteps are from far and near, it sounds like they have been tracking a distance, and they are also very cunning, in order to avoid eavesdropping, they are still acting in the footsteps of these people at the same time, which can be regarded as hiding their whereabouts.

But God didn't fulfill people's wishes, and it was among them that after awakening their perception ability, they became very sharp about the movements around them, and that little carving insect skill was no longer a problem at all.

"We want to be followed." Xiong Tai gasped, suddenly realized something, and responded lightly.

"It's not like, it's because we've been followed." Rose nodded in motion.

"The number of the other party is one... Two, three... Six, is the powder you just advocating fake? How can they still track it, what are they following? Footprints, or the smell of life emanating from our bodies from top to bottom, attract them. Frey looked at the calm Rose vigilantly, with a look of disbelief, it was true that he didn't believe what he said, and he didn't know what the purpose was. Anyway, sooner or later, all this will come to light, and if you want to know everything, you have to find out, and when the matter is done, he must ask clearly.

"That's a poacher, second only to the ultimate quality parasitic beast, not a world-destroying parasitic beast, so don't worry about their existence, we don't have to pay attention to it, it's attracted by other things, it must be so, here is the symbiotic system of mushrooms, and to put it bluntly, it is the difference between human red blood cells and white blood cells, our foreign substances are bacteria, and the activation of white blood cells will remove us regularly." Rose snorted coldly and continued to respond: "And those plant armies are puppets that play white blood cells, we are invaded as bacteria, and we will naturally be attacked by them, but we have played the so-called white blood cells, and now we have the general deception strength, only the plant army can recognize our true identity, and those parasitic beasts will escape by themselves when they encounter us, let's continue to go, I just hope that we don't encounter the plant army again, otherwise this smell really can't cover up our human smell." ”

Indeed, as said, soon, in the jungle not far behind, suddenly a large vine rose, and several screams suddenly sounded. Behind the voices were all very painful, and the parasitic beast was immediately grabbed by the vines and crushed to death on the tree.

Rose shook his head and said, "That's all here, let's go." ”

First of all, this side never expected this to be the result, and continued to move forward, obviously, as it went into the center.

They entered the second section, where the leaves of the grass were stained with horrific blood, and the empty skeletons were scattered on the ground.

Sure enough, as Ross said, there was no chance of survival in the second section.

The powder was still working, just as it could be seen on the surface, and when the others walked over, they found that there was a mole-like parasitic beast poking out of the grass, with sharp fangs bulging and blood-red eyes, even if it was a parasitic beast that looked like a cute panda, it must not approach them because of its appearance.

In this regard, it is impossible to get close, only to leave far away, and fortunately, the effect of the powder can make these parasitic beasts disgusted with them, and they began to retreat, Rose smiled and opened the way in front, and the beasts next to him followed little by little, but it didn't take long for them to disperse on their own.

That's the way it is, here, everyone takes a deep breath, the scene here is really scary, but everywhere you look, the more terrifying scene is just not really seen?

At this moment, they came to a tall canopy, the canopy was entwined with countless vines, and the mouth was a parasitic beast that had been struggling to the death, a little bit by the tendons of those tightened vines, and when it lost the strength of the struggle, it was sucked away little by little by countless vines that emitted green light, first the skin began to wrinkle, and then the surface fell off little by little, leaving a skeleton, and the white skeleton was instantly scattered all over the ground, and it was terrifying to see, this process was less than two minutes, directly from a living thing to a dead thing.

"This is to see the blood to seal the throat, only the bleeding creatures will be attacked, if it is not for the power of the medicine powder, even if our personal ability is strong, it is impossible to reach here, this is incredible, so even if we break through the attack of those parasitic beasts, we will encounter attacks again here, and the end will be the pile of skeletons, but it's okay, let's keep walking, it won't attack us."

Although it is a plant legion, it can be seen that the impression of the sacred tree of the blood throat is still very strange, and it is indeed what I want to say, if there is no blood, it will attack people, and they continue to walk around the green vines one by one.

The vines moved around them a few times, and then they retracted, probably to test the smell on their bodies, and did not arouse their appeal to blood, and sure enough, they all turned back to ordinary rattan shapes, and gathered their minds, and waited for the next injured prey to arrive, anyway, there was no shortage of food here.
