Chapter 363: Overlord Mask
At the junction of the two dense forests, in the half-human-tall vine grass, one or two strange human heads popped up from time to time, vigilantly and cautiously paying close attention to the opponent's every move in the jungle.
"This is the communication vine, the first to be killed by the Golden Armor, of all the vegetative people, they are the weakest, but they are indispensable, and the wall is mainly through them to monitor every move in the vegetative forest. However, you must not underestimate them, they are definitely not something that ordinary people like us can afford to provoke. The old man carefully hid the broken spear close to his body and whispered.
Chu Yunsheng didn't listen very carefully, he didn't care about these, he just wanted how to get out of here early, and if he wanted to leave here, it seemed that he had to avoid the eyes and ears of these vine people, it was indeed a troublesome thing.
He involuntarily looked up and down the characteristics of the nearest communicator.
“…… Soaring ......"
Sensing his gaze, the communication Fujito immediately glared at him fiercely, and a dissatisfied voice came out of his mouth.
The old man hurriedly dragged Chu Yunsheng away, lowered his voice, and reminded: "Young man, if you want to live here, first, at any time, don't stare at a vegetative person." They hate the stares that people look at them, and when they are angry, they will die so much that they will not even be left with scum! ”
Chu Yunsheng retracted his gaze and continued to think about his question, lowered the brim of his hat, and quickened his pace.
The glimmer of light in the sky gradually disappeared, and the plants gradually lit up with fluorescent-like "lights", some of which exude an earthy yellow halo like a small pumpkin, and some of which are as cold as glow sticks, and so on, shrouding the entire plant forest in a world of night secret light, quiet but wonderful.
"These are the Straw Lantern People, and the lighting at night depends on them, but don't try to get close to them, they only like to be active at night, and if you get close to them, they will confuse your vision, make you lose yourself, think that you are back in the sunshine age, and then hide you until they become one of them." The old man said in a rambling manner, as if he knew everything about the place.
Further on, there are rows of "ferns" that are two or three meters tall and appear in the shape of stick-like cacti, and in a slightly different way, the human head does not appear at the top, but at the bottom near the ground, as if embedded in the ground.
"That's the Assassins, a bunch of dangerous guys, never smile in front of them, even if you think it's kind, they'll think you're laughing at them and shoot you like a hedgehog!" The old man emphasized.
Chu Yunsheng walked through quickly, and behind the stabbing person was a group of rather tall half-tree-shaped plants, the branches were full of large eggplants like river mussels, some closed, and some slightly opened, revealing the "fangs" inside.
Their heads were well hidden, and with Chu Yunsheng's eyesight, they couldn't find it.
"Poison planters, they always like to hide their heads, thinking that no one will find out that they are vegetative, but if you try to find their heads, then you will die a miserable death, no one can get even half a step close to them, they spray yellow venom to kill a bug!" The old man smacked his mouth, revealing his admiration for them.
Behind the Poison Eggplant Man was a land of thorns, full of long half-human-tall spikes, and the cold glow was even sharper in the cold light of the Grass Lantern Man.
"This is the territory of the stinging people, you have to walk around from afar, they are all dark personalities, most of the time they like to bury their heads in the soil, only show their faces, stare at the sky, it is said that they are waiting for the sun, but whoever dares to block their view, they will do their best." The old man cautiously distanced himself from them, and said.
Along the way, under the guidance of the old man, Chu Yunsheng saw so many strange vegetative people for the first time, such as the vine man, the curling sucker, and the fruit bomb man............ It's literally a vegetative army!
He couldn't help but think of a question, who had the ability to create such a plant empire?
Listening to the old man's tone, it was very likely that the master was just a human being.
Of course, this doesn't have much to do with him, he's just a passerby, and although he hasn't found a way to leave yet, there will always be.
He resisted making any more acquaintances with strangers, and just wanted to come quietly and go quietly.
However, the truth is not as simple as he thought, just as he inexplicably put into the trailer, and inexplicably involved in a small riot, and then inexplicably followed this group of people here, forever full of unpredictability. Finally, their footsteps stopped in front of a circle of towering giant trees, which, according to the old man, were the strongest defense layer of plants: the Tree Man Wall!
"Once the insects once attacked under the tree wall, these tree people are tough, the insects attack day and night, they have been defending for thirty days, and the tree poles have been flattened in half, so that the mask army of the Lord of Bi successfully counterattacked, and bought deadly time." The old man stood under this "copper wall and iron wall" and couldn't help but sigh.
"Can I pet them?" The young man who had been "listening" and carrying a bulging backpack along the way "asked" the old man.
"Touch it, the Treants are the gentlest of all the vegetative people and never hurt anyone." The old man said with melancholy in his eyes, as if he remembered something sad.
The young man shook his backpack, took a few steps forward, and reached out to press his hand against the huge intertwined roots, and waves of fluctuations buzzed from the tree poles.
"It's amazing, it's great, it's a masterpiece from heaven!" The young man couldn't help but sigh.
His voice was a little bigger, and the short-haired woman in the golden armor glanced back at him, and her afterglow swept over Chu Yunsheng, and she didn't care much.
At this moment, the masked man guarding the intersection did not know what had been activated, and the tree man sizzled and twitched the branch wall in a staggered circle, revealing a hole that could be walked through by one person.
Chu Yunsheng followed them through the secret cave formed by tree branches, and suddenly opened up in front of him, a blue-yellow meadow, thatched huts everywhere, and the crowd was bustling and busy.
"You come with me." The masked man held a spear and pointed at Chu Yunsheng and the others, and said.
"This guy has a good hand, you can consider making him a masked man." One of the three men in the original fire energy suddenly patted the masked man's shoulder, pointed at Chu Yunsheng and said.
"There must be no problem with what you recommend." The masked man said respectfully, especially in the face of the gold-armored woman, he didn't even dare to look at each other.
The two of them said and answered, as if Chu Yunsheng would definitely agree, and they didn't even ask Chu Yunsheng half a sentence.
The old man was beside him, secretly tugged at the corner of his clothes, and said, "Young man, congratulations, I knew that they would take a fancy to you, your speed, ordinary people have really never seen it." Chu Yunsheng shook his head, he had always been respectful of unfamiliar things, not to mention that he didn't want to have anything to do with anyone or anything that happened here.
The old man's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he explained, "Young man, you may not know ...... to be a masked man."
"You come with me, and the other newcomers go over there to register, it turns out that they are the original, and they must be rechecked." The masked man was busy talking to the fire energy man, and he didn't see Chu Yunsheng shaking his head, turning around and pointing at Chu Yunsheng, interrupting the old man, and said.
Seeing that Chu Yunsheng's expression seemed to be refusing, the old man stretched out his hand and touched him secretly, and said, "Young man, don't be confused at this juncture, no matter what the reason, don't be caught by them as a spy!" This sentence reminded Chu Yunsheng, he is now tossed by the ancient books and other three things, and he has no vitality, and his strength has been greatly reduced, if there is a conflict, not to mention the golden armor short-haired woman and the three of Huo, even these masked people in front of him, he can't deal with much.
Isn't it just to obey the heavens, Chu Yunsheng felt that it was time to learn from that woman.
Maybe it's easier to get out of here by becoming a masked man, he thought to himself.
With a hot breath in his mouth, he nodded, put his hands in the sleeves of his clothes, followed behind the masked man, and walked towards a mighty treehouse under the envious eyes of a group of people.
"If the fire energy person recommends it, register him, check his identity, and if it's okay, distribute equipment." The masked man who took Chu Yunsheng grunted and negotiated with the masked man under the tree house, and turned around and left without paying attention to Chu Yunsheng.
"What's your name? Where are the people? When did you come to Botanical Grove? The masked man in charge of registration asked several questions in one breath.
Chu Yunsheng opened his mouth, pointed to his throat, and shook his head.
The masked man was stunned for a moment and muttered, "Dumb? Fuck, fire people can really fuck up, what are you doing with our masked man legion? Everybody is going to stuff it here...... Can you write? I carved it on this piece of clay myself. ”
Chu Yunsheng took the small needle and scribbled a name and origin.
The masked man had regarded him as a "relation" at the moment, glanced at him a few times, and the censorship was not so strict, muttering that he didn't know what to say, he took out a dirt box from the tree house, threw it in front of Chu Yunsheng, and said in a stiff tone: "Dumb, look at the instructions on the box yourself, only masks, weapons and shields will be issued here, and you will receive them when you are assigned to the garrison below." Chu Yunsheng picked up the box, and there were several words clearly engraved on it, which was simple and easy to understand.
"This is your earthen card, take it, put on a mask and go to the camp in the middle, someone will arrange for you newcomers." The masked man waved his hand impatiently.
Chu Yunsheng didn't care about the mask man's bad attitude, in fact, he didn't feel it at all, he didn't have the time, let alone the interest to entangle with this mask man.
Holding the clay box, he first found a secluded place and took out the pale yellow mask inside like an earthen carving.
This is the lowest level of mask, and most of the masks he has seen are also this mask, and there is another dark yellow, which led him here, and the mask man in charge of registration, all of them are this color, obviously one level higher than his mask.
He held the mask in his hand and observed it carefully, except for the faint fluctuation of earth vitality, there was nothing special.
The grass and trees here are completely different from the plants of the spore forest, and they exude not vibrant wood energy, but pure and solid earth energy.
Therefore, when the Fire Energy Man attacks the Mask Man with Earth Energy, although the Earth Yuan Qi does not restrain the Fire Yuan Qi, it has the advantage of coexistence just like the Fire Yuan Qi of the insect against the wood Yuan Qi of the spore creature.
This may be one of the reasons why this plant forest has not been attacked by Min's bugs, right?
But when Chu Yunsheng brought the mask close to his face, an abnormality suddenly occurred, and from the inside of the mask, many tiny fibrous earth filaments suddenly poked out, forming a powerful earth energy suction.
Strike!
It happened suddenly, and the mask closed on Chu Yunsheng's face in a blink of an eye, and the touch touched his skin, and the earth vitality energy immediately penetrated in.
Unlike the strange earth energy that has the effect of mudifying the human body, as soon as this earth energy enters his body, it is snatched and absorbed by the three things that are still suppressing each other.
Although it was quickly carved up, it was strange that Chu Yunsheng finally found that the three things seemed to be isolated from each other a little bit, even if it was only a little bit, and finally let him see the hope of solving his biggest trouble at the moment.
Sizzle...... Boom!
He "tore off" the mask vigorously, touched his face, and was quite normal.
It turns out that this is the source of the masked man's power, which allows ordinary people to fight like awakened humans? But who can have such a great ability?
He asked himself that he could indeed make a weapon like a musket that could be used by ordinary people, but he couldn't do it with such a large-scale use and promotion of the Earth Vitality Mask, at least not in the Duality Heaven.
Suddenly, he thought of the possibility that the old man had repeatedly mentioned that the earth had been dug out of the ground after darkness had fallen.
So, could this thing be what the predecessors of the ancient books said, something left by those overlords?
And the so-called Tubi will also be a kind of mask, a kind of "overlord mask" or something left after the death of the hegemon?
Chu Yunsheng guessed wildly, because only such a thing, in his imagination, could give humans the ability to control such a powerful earth energy!
