Chapter 138: The tentacles of the corrupted giant tree
The nano combat suit is indeed the equipment being studied by the Jinling Military Region, but I didn't expect it to be equipped on the awakened at this time.
It is estimated that this army should be the elite of the Jinling Military Region, and it will not be an ordinary team that can come out to hunt and hate Roshan.
It's just that Cerberus appeared so early, and Pandora's rioters are faster, which is not a good thing.
Du Fei even suspected that the Jinling Military Region had already begun a large-scale hunt and killing of the Abomination Roshan, and although it was a good thing to attack Pandora, it was not a wise move to provoke Pandora before he had the ability to protect himself.
If it was before being reborn, the military should have accidentally hunted an abomination Roshan at this time, and then began to study it slowly. Finally, the secret of Pandora's correspondence is discovered.
Yes, human satellites, as well as all kinds of radios, are disabled, so humanity is like a deaf person who cannot communicate with the outside world at all.
It is as if the global village has become many planes, and it is impossible to communicate with each other if they are separated by a hundred kilometers. Humans who are accustomed to the Internet and mobile phones are immediately overwhelmed and finally understand what the farthest distance is.
However, Pandora can communicate with each other, and the Abomination of Roshan can also communicate with the Corrupt Giant Tree using a magical electromagnetic wave.
Humans intercepted the electromagnetic waves emitted by the Pandora species and analyzed them, and found that the electromagnetic waves made by Pandora were not wavy, but zigzag.
Human electromagnetic waves are plotted as wavelength diagrams, like wavy lines made up of parabolas. Pandora's electromagnetic waves, on the other hand, are not parabolic, but spiral, like a row of sawtooth.
Theoretically, when the particles vibrate cyclically, the velocity will decrease to zero when it reaches the peak of the wave, and then it will start to accelerate and vibrate back. That is, the instantaneous velocity is always changing, while the absolute value of acceleration is constant.
However, the instantaneous velocity of Pandora's electromagnetic wave vibrations is constant, and when it reaches the crest of the wave, it changes direction instantaneously.
For humans, this is simply not something that can happen, and this is no longer something that physics can explain. But it just happened in front of those scientists, and after countless experiments, the result was still the same.
Humans could not believe that such electromagnetic waves existed, just as the ancients could not believe that the earth was round.
This discovery completely subverted human cognition and caused an uproar in the scientific community.
Obviously, Pandora shielded the wavy electromagnetic waves, and then used this magical zigzag electromagnetic wave to communicate, but humans could not create this electromagnetic wave anyway, and became completely deaf, or should be called dumb.
Until, scientists found a clue on the horns on the top of the head of the abomination of Roshan.
The horns of the Abomination Roshan are a substance that has never been discovered by humans, and after hunting to the Abomination Roshan, the Military Region Research Institute began a crazy study of the Abomination Roshan. Five months after the end of the world, the military succeeded in building the first machine that could generate zigzag electromagnetic waves from the horns of the abomination Roshan.
After the machine was built, humans all over the world quickly regained the ability to communicate, but because the horns of the Abomination Roshan were so expensive, ordinary people could not afford to use them, even the Awakened.
This is the reason why the horns of the Abomination of Roshan are precious, Du Fei knew it for a long time, but he left a small section of the horns to Lieutenant Colonel Qiu of the Jinling Military Region Research Institute, and told the military the use of the abomination horns through his mouth.
With Du Fei's guidance, the military quickly made a breakthrough in the horns of abomination and discovered the mystery.
Therefore, the Jinling Military Region has begun to hunt down and kill the abominable Roshan on a large scale.
Du Fei didn't expect the Jinling Military Region to move so quickly, so what he originally thought would happen in half a year was estimated to be in advance.
When Du Fei was separated from the boss, he once said that they would get together in Jinling half a year later, because half a year after the end of the world before rebirth, there would be a siege battle of Pandora in Jinling, so Du Fei planned to intervene with the boss.
However, the reason why this battle took place was because of the unscrupulous hunting of the Jinling Military Region that hated Roshan, which attracted the attention of Pandora, and then launched an attack.
However, now that Jinling has begun to efficiently hunt and kill the Abomination Roshan, this should have happened half a year after the end of the world, but it was more than four months ahead of schedule.
Without much thought, Pandora's offense will definitely be ahead of schedule.
Looking at the number of Cerberus now, it has reached the scale of hundreds of heads, and it is estimated that the siege battle will be a few days away.
Of course, there must be a gap between the strength of Pandora for more than a month in the last days and the strength of half a year in the last days.
However, the gap in Jinling's defensive capacity was even greater, and even the fortress wall was not built, and the construction of various defensive pillboxes and batteries did not begin. There are also not enough Awakened Ones, and most of them are level 1.
The comparison of the strength of the two sides is estimated to be similar to the one before the rebirth.
However, the fortress base city was not built, and the people of the city were sure to suffer at the beginning of the battle.
Du Fei suddenly realized that he originally wanted to do a good deed to let the military master the sawtooth electromagnetic wave technology quickly, but he let a battle come ahead of schedule and affect the innocent people in Jinling Base City.
Du Fei really didn't know what it was like in his heart, and he always felt that he had indirectly harmed these people.
Du Fei remembered the boss who was arrested in the laboratory again, and then shamelessly put all the responsibility on the Jinling Military Region.
In any case, it is absolutely not wrong for humans to master sawtooth electromagnetic wave technology as soon as possible. But sometimes, when a correct decision is made and the order is given, the people below don't follow the routine and mess things up every time.
This is the tail is too big, and it is impossible for the commander to take into account every small style of doing things, not to mention that he is not a commander at all, but just a guide. The road has been indicated, whether to walk, climb, jump or roll over, is no longer a question that the passerby should consider.
However, Du Fei felt that he still had some responsibility, so he decided to investigate the situation of the corrupted giant tree in the forest, and then find a way to inform the Jinling Military Region of this matter. It's always good to let the military district make some defensive preparations, so that fewer people can die. As for those self-righteous high-ranking officials of the Jinling Military Region, they will soon suffer.
However, for the siege campaign to begin, there is still a prerequisite missing. Due to the low IQ of the Corrupted Giant Tree itself, when it receives the information that the Abomination Roshan is being attacked, it will immediately send a combat unit to rescue it.
It's all instinct of the creatures, and there's no skill in it. So Pandora needs a general to command her army, and that general is usually an evolution.
Evolutionary forms retain most of the genes of humans and have the same IQ as humans, and the evolutionary has control over the Pandora combat species, and the IQ of the evolved represents the war IQ of the Corrupted Giant Tree.
What Du Fei wants to find out is whether this evolution has appeared, different types of evolutionary will have different combat styles, and will fully exert its own abilities. As long as you know the type of evolution, you can roughly guess the form of attack.
After the army killed all the Cerberus, they escorted the corpse of the Abominable Roshan and slowly rushed towards the Jinling base city.
After all the troops left, Du Fei took Illya quietly into the forest. Illya also seemed to know what she was going to do, so she obediently didn't make any noise or noise, and she also stretched out the mental power field to block all fluctuations between the two.
The trees in this forest are very luxuriant and well-structured. From the grass on the surface, to the low shrubs, to the tall trees, it is just right to match. Fortunately, the degree of mutation of plants is not large now, so some terrifying plants have not appeared for the time being.
After going deep into the woods for two or three kilometers, Du Fei began to notice that the color of the trunks of the trees gradually became darker, and the skin became rougher.
Du Fei knew that he was getting closer and closer to the corrupted giant tree, and after walking more than a hundred meters, he saw a root on the trunk of an arbor. If you have to describe the appearance of this root, it can be said that it is very similar to the root of the old demon of Montenegro, and it looks disgusting.
Corrupt Trees don't count as plants, so it's more appropriate to call these root-shaped things tentacles. These tentacles are wrapped around the trunks of these trees, but they are not parasitic with these trees**? This is not accurate, and if a plant can be described as colonization, it would be more accurate to call it colonization.
The growth of the Corrupt Giant Tree requires energy, nutrients, and various elements. The energy comes from energy crystals, and the battalion commander comes from the body of the zombie and the supply of plants, and the remaining minerals naturally come from the soil.
The Corrupt Giant Tree uses its tentacles to absorb the nutrients of these plants, but at the same time transforms these plants to make them have stronger vitality and taller torsos, so that they can absorb sunlight more fully and photosynthesize more quickly.
However, in addition to absorbing the plant's nutrients, these tentacles are also responsible for guarding against anything dangerous if it touches it.
Just like Du Fei was now, he stepped on the tentacles of a corrupted giant tree.
Du Fei was already very careful, and he was light all the way, and he was two hundred meters deep from seeing the first tentacle. But even with such caution, he stepped on a tentacle hidden in a pile of rotten leaves.
A tentacle is a tentacle because it moves, and it moves very quickly.
Du Fei just stepped on it lightly, and with a "whoosh" sound, his feet were entangled by the thick tentacles that bounced up.
Then countless tentacles wrapped around from all directions, and Iliya hugged Du Fei tightly, and hurriedly strengthened the telekinetic field to form a protective barrier, blocking the entwined tentacles from the outside.
The tentacles wound the two layer after layer, like a ball of yarn, and they were still tightening, like countless pythons winding around their prey.
