Climbed up the unknown towering tree, and climbed more than fifty meters, only to see some situation in the center of the sea of flowers: there were many mutant creatures in it that seemed to be fighting for something, and many large mutant beasts were even fighting. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

With the addition of some larger mutant beasts, the scene became even more bloody, and the flying beasts inside were already hiding on the edge of the battle. Chu Tian silently recited a secret sentence, the blood vessels in his face began to bulge, the blood flow rate in his eyes began to increase, and his vision became clearer.

As his vision increased, Chu Tian finally saw clearly what those mutant beasts were fighting for, which was a green berry. The green berries are only the size of wild mountain dates, and the flesh inside is red, and there is a layer of fine hairs on the surface.

Berries do not grow in flowers, but on the ground, and belong to a vine plant. It seems that it should be a companion crop of flowers, because this vine plant grows at a speed that is almost visible to the naked eye, and it completes the process of flowering and fruiting in a very short time.

The plants in the sea of flowers are naturally grown from the mysterious seeds underground, and both the branches and the flowers are extremely strong. Even after being trampled by so many creatures, it rarely snapped, and the mutant beasts that rushed in didn't seem to be attracted by those flowers.

However, the vines that grew in the center of the sea of flowers were not so tough, and many of the vines, branches, leaves, and fruits were crushed by the larger herd, revealing the red juice inside.

The beasts that were initially attracted must have rushed over on instinct, and since that kind of green berry can attract the attention of the herd, it shows that the value of that berry is much greater than the attraction of the sea of flowers. The flying beast that everyone first saw around the flower was only attracted by the fragrance of the flower, so they couldn't see anything abnormal.

Chu Tian's location was relatively safe, the large bird creatures had not yet rushed over, and the low-level flying beasts could not fly.

In a short period of time, the creature that swallowed the berries fell into a state of madness, as if it had lost its mind and frantically attacked other creatures around it. If this continues, the beasts here will gather more and more, but I'm afraid that a large number of beasts have gathered on the periphery at this time!

As if to confirm his thoughts, Chu Tian, who was standing on the top of the big tree, soon felt the abnormality of the nearby airflow, and there was a strange chirp faintly in the sky.

Chu Tian didn't care about the risk from the height, and directly jumped from the giant tree under him, and came to a bigger tree, climbed to the top of the tree, and looked into the distance. Using the secret method again, the blood vessels on Chu Tian's face burst out, and his vision was greatly expanded.

He saw black clouds emerging in the sky, moving rapidly towards this direction, and there were also some small black dots on the ground, surging towards this direction quickly. The anomalies on the ground and in the air don't need to look closely to know that they are herds.

Judging from the current situation, the team should find a safe place as soon as possible. When those beasts from all directions poured here, the strength of the expedition team would definitely not be able to withstand the impact of a large number of beasts.

This kind of passive scene of facing the beast herd, Chu Tian really didn't want to face it, one is that the strength of the team is too weak, and the main reason is that the size of the beast herd this time is roughly estimated to be no less than 10,000. I don't know what means the underground plant used to attract such a large herd of beasts, and this time it seems that I underestimate the underground plant.

Coming down from the big tree, Chu Tian told everyone about the situation in the vicinity and began to discuss where to hide. Dodging is temporary, and this means of attracting the herd on a large scale cannot be seen all the time. The intellectual development of plants is extremely slow, and even the most spiritual plants cannot easily attract such a large herd with just a few berries.

The intelligence of the beasts that can survive until now is definitely not lower than that of plants, and if plants can easily give birth to higher intelligence, how can other creatures survive. Moreover, in Chu Tian's impression, in his previous life, until he left, he had never heard of any too high-level plants appearing.

The members of the expedition team discussed it and chose to retreat deeper into the woods. In the dense woods, it is not difficult to delay the effective impact of the beast herd, and with the help of the defense of the big tree, it is not difficult to avoid these beast herds. The only thing to consider is how long this beast tide can last.

Retreating to the depths of the woods was much easier than attacking the beast herd head-on, Chu Tian was also shocked by the number of beasts at first, and after reacting, he was not so panicked. Before spring, there are not many attack methods that plants can use.

Can the woods withstand the onslaught of the herd, as long as the trees are thick enough? There are many such woods along the river, and it didn't take long to find a great spot. After setting a trap on the perimeter of the woods, the group's personnel began to reinforce the surrounding defenses.

After more than half an hour, there was a tremor on the ground, and this time the rest of the team felt that it was indeed trembling. The birdsong from the heights is getting sharper and sharper.

When you enter the woods, you don't have to worry about the threat from above, just pay attention to the insects on the ground. Feeling the tremor of the ground, the members of the expedition team climbed to the largest tree in the woods, stood on a flat branch, and looked out.

From the large group of beasts on the periphery, there was little interest in a few people on Chu Tian's side. The monsters that occasionally rushed over also rushed over from the sea of flowers. The beasts, red-eyed, attacked any targets in their vicinity, and eventually slowly gathered into the woods where the expedition team was, and were soon trapped in the traps.

Chu Tian looked at the time, from the arrival of the beast tide to the beginning of the surrounding beast tide, it lasted for more than an hour. The beast tide dispersed, the sound was like a tide, and the first to retreat was the beast herd flying in the air, and it seemed that the casualties of the flying beast herd were not large.

After the flying beasts retreated, the creeping beasts on the ground also began to retreat, and the flowers returned to quiet.

After feeling that the large beast herd on the ground had almost all retreated, Chu Tiancai took the rest of the group out of the woods where they were and began to go to the sea of flowers to find out.

Just now in the depths of the woods, I could only hear that the sea of flowers was very lively, and there were not many mutant beasts I saw. When I got out of the woods, I realized how violent the impact of the beast tide was: the outside of the woods was a mess, and a large number of shrubs were scattered by the impact. The ground was littered with trampled green foliage, and even the solid sand and gravel on the ground was covered with a layer of green slime.

The members of the expedition team did not find many monster corpses until they reached the outer perimeter of Huawai. Some injured monsters that occasionally encountered them, when they saw Chu Tian and the others, they all avoided from afar.

After entering the sea of flowers, the team members couldn't help but pay attention to the flowers, and the vegetation in the flowers did not appear to be damaged! This is very abnormal, the vegetation outside the woods has been spoiled by the herd, and the vegetation here has not been broken in large areas.

Chu Tian took out a military dagger, pulled over a somewhat smooth flower branch, and lightly scratched it. To his surprise, there was a slight resistance on the dagger, and he increased his strength to cut off the very slender branch!

The dagger in his hand is made of alloy, which is naturally very sharp, and he can feel the resistance with a random stroke. Chu Tian pulled down the branch in his hand again, and then broke the branch in his hand again, it seems that the plant branches of the sea of flowers are extremely tough.

After seeing Chu Tian's movements, several other people also began to study the branches in the flowers, and the results were all very tenacious. After careful identification, everyone discovered the secret of the tenacity of the branches: a thick layer of substances on the branches. It's not that the branches are very tough, but this kind of keratin, which is very compressive and wear-resistant, and if it doesn't break through this layer of keratin, it can't hurt the shoots inside.

After discovering the fruit, it is natural to go inside the sea of flowers and explore the vines that can grow green berries.

In the middle of the sea of flowers, the vines have grown very thick and densely distributed on the surface. The air was devoid of that strange scent, and no green berries had grown on the vines. Chu Tian was disappointed, and it seemed that he could only dig with the shovel in Wang Fei's hand to see if he could find anything underground.

After just digging a few times, everyone found an anomaly under the vine, and there were a lot of white bone fragments and hairs in the soil under the vine, and this kind of thing appeared at the root of this vine, and the vine must be an omnivorous plant.

Enduring the discomfort in his heart, Wang Fei also continued to dig down, and soon came across a large white rhizome. The rhizomes are only the thickness of a finger, and they have many very slender roots extending out of their appearance.

After signaling everyone not to move, Chu Tian casually threw a small flying beast corpse into those rhizomes. Soon those fine roots came to life, slowly wrapping around the corpse, wrapping the corpse layer by layer, and the color of the roots began to turn ruddy.

A minute later, the tendrils unfolded again, and the body of the flying beast was gone, leaving only a pile of fine bones and hair, which looked terrifying. Those tendrils could be devoured by palm-sized flying beasts in just one minute, and it was impossible to imagine how terrifying the digestion ability of the many roots beneath the surface was.

The few people brought this time are all experienced people, so naturally they will not stupidly look for corpses to feed those roots. Not surprisingly, the plant in the ground is also omnivorous, and it is unclear whether the relationship between the two is the imaginary companionship.

The predatory ability of mutated plants is very weak, and it is not easy to capture animals without the help of external forces. Most omnivorous plants are tempted by animals to come, with the help of fragrance, fruit and other means, after killing the animal, they will choose to digest it.

Chu Tian and the others didn't have the idea of experimenting on their own, and after cutting off those white roots, they continued to dig underneath. This time, I dug less than five meters deep, and I found those white roots, wrapped around some black roots. The black roots had no roots, which were distinctly different from the roots of vines.

The roots of the tree have no roots, and the exterior is also a thick layer of keratin, which seems to be just to open up underground space. After Zhang He's induction, the vitality of the rhizome with the cuticle fluctuates, which is the same as the rhizome underground.

After some exploration, after returning to the ground, he continued to let Zhang He, a wood-based ability, judge whether the two were a plant through the branches and leaves on the vine ground. There are no berries that produce vines, but they are more vigorous and not too dangerous.

After Zhang He's careful sensing, he affirmed that the vitality fluctuations on the vines were not the same as those of rhizomes. In other words, the vine and the plant in the ground are only cooperative, and do not belong to the same plant.

The vines on the ground were defined as vampire vines by the rest of the expedition team, and Chu Tian did not agree with this name in his heart. The vampire vines that have appeared in later generations are much more powerful than the vines encountered now, and they are all plant masters who can actively prey. The passively predatory vines that have been discovered now simply cannot afford the title of vampire vines.

It's just a title, Chu Tian himself didn't care too much, since other people call it a vampire vine, then call it a vampire vine.

With the addition of vampire vines, this plant is not very aggressive, but it is very vigorous. So the members of the team directly cut off one of the smaller vines, along with the soil from the roots, and sealed it.

This vampire vine, it seems that it can only be brought back by the personnel of the Mercenary Guild in the future, including the plant underground.

After the beast tide passed, the group returned to the large pit they had dug before, and unsurprisingly, the pit was filled with the corpses of the beasts.

Cleaning up the corpse is much easier than digging a pit directly, and the six men on the team are all good, and with the soil ability, it is easy to leave the corpse in the pit aside and bury it properly.

After digging down for a few more meters, the roots in the ground began to become scarce and thicker. Eventually, more than 40 meters underground, the diameter of the plant's roots reached a limit, more than a meter long, and below that was a giant oval-shaped bulbous root.

After cleaning away the finer fibrous roots around it, the seeds of the plant were finally displayed in front of everyone, and the mutant plant seemed to have only broken out of its shell and grown not long ago. The hard spherical shell was also quickly discovered, although its classification was somewhat difficult to judge.

Judging by the flowers on the ground alone, it is clear that it belongs to the herbaceous plant among angiosperms. It's just the peculiar structure of the taproot, plus the absence of fruit, and it seems to belong to gymnosperms.

In the end, everyone did not determine which category this plant belonged to, and it could only be attributed to the peculiar species. The name is even simple---- Ancient Giant Tree! This giant seed, apparently not on Earth before, grew by chance.

The seeds of the Ancient Giant Tree were dug up separately, with no dirt attached. The upper taproot retains a section, and only a small part of the fibrous root remains, and the seeds are so huge that they can only take so much.

The seeds were dug up, and the vitality of the sea of flowers above was not affected much, and after Zhang He's induction, it was still extremely vigorous. It seems that the root system of those vegetation in the sea of flowers has gradually departed from relying on the taproot.

After four days of exploration, the expedition team had come to an end after obtaining the vampire vine and the ancient giant tree seeds, and Chu Tian proposed to return. The next day was New Year's Day, and it took a whole morning to figure out the cause of the beast tide by the Erqi Bridge. The team needs to bring back to the institute what they got from this trip as soon as possible.

After a brief rest, the members of the group went straight to the old campus of Tsingshan University of Science and Technology. There, two giant heavy trucks were transferred to complete the income of the team before rushing to the new campus on the edge of East Lake.

On the two heavy trucks, in addition to the seeds of ancient giant trees, vampire vines, oil trees, and flower shrubs. It also contains a lot of mutant beasts caught in traps, mutated aquatic creatures caught in the park, mutated camphor roots, colored-winged bee hives, and numerous herbs and mutated creatures.

It took me a lot of time to get back, but it took a lot of time to put those things in place. Back at East Lake, it was already past six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was getting dark. After all, it's winter, and night falls relatively quickly.

Approaching a main road, the team set off several flares, and the street soon lit up with rows of lights. It seems that the "City That Never Sleeps Project" has already begun to be implemented, because the street lights on the streets are all new energy-saving lamps, and they use electricity, not biological lights.

Electricity has always been the representative of the new century energy, and the installation of street lights, relying on biological lights, cannot be controlled. Before the catastrophe comes, it is necessary to create a safe and secure living environment to ensure more reconstruction work in the future. The City That Never Sleeps Project is an initial attempt by Chutian to rebuild the new city.
