Chapter 175: A Different Crystallization
The cave starts with only one main road, which is wide enough to drive two giant trucks side by side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's just that the passage is all dirt, there are no rocks, and the support is not very stable, and some sections are collapsing, or dripping, forming puddles one after another.
There were dense footprints of various shapes on the ground, but there were no corpses.
It didn't go far before a large number of branches appeared on both sides, not as wide as the main passage, and the shape was also very strange.
"It was an animal that dug it." Annihilation scanned several branch passages and found something that Meng Liangzhou was not aware of.
And the location where Meng Liangzhou marked it was also a branch passage that led to a branch passage that was not known to be excavated by what monster.
He didn't go in first, but first followed the main passage and reached the end.
This is a blockage caused by the collapse of the soil on the top, blocking the way forward.
"Bang."
Annihilation watched for a moment, then punched the damp mound, and a slight shock wave instantly spread, spreading deep into the dirt.
"It's deep." He shook his head, turned and walked to the marked passageway.
Based on the feeling of the shock, the clogged mound was at least more than 10 meters thick, and it would take a lot of effort to clean it up.
Because the mound is loose, it needs special treatment before it can be dug through.
The inside of the branch road is different from the main road, and a lot of plants and various monsters gradually appear.
The most of them are the mutant rats that Meng Liangzhou said, they dug a lot of holes in the branch road, hid inside, and transplanted a lot of aquatic plants-like plants at the door, blocking the view.
The remaining mutant monsters are hiding more tightly, most of them are mutant toads and mutant snakes, which are directly embedded in the dirt, making it impossible for people to detect.
Annihilation walked past them undisguised, causing little reaction.
Meng Liangzhou was also able to enter the depths of the cave when he encountered this situation, otherwise he was afraid that he would be stopped at the door, or he would die.
Because there are so many monsters here, after a few hundred meters of annihilation, there are more than thirty fifth-level apprentices with about the strength of the fifth-level apprentices, plus a few sixth-level and seventh-level apprentices with the strength, which is enough to keep them.
And the reason why the monsters don't move is probably related to the scars on their bodies. There are many mutant rats and toads that lack legs and feet, and mutant snakes have broken a lot of tails.
It can be seen that they have a lot of fighting, but they have not seen the corpses yet.
Soon, the annihilation came to the last mark, and in front of it was the target plant, and at this moment a faint voice appeared.
Annihilation slowed down, and the spiritual power scanned first and walked over.
"Shhh...... Hiss....... ”
Several mutant snakes were guarding the bend in front of them, and they seemed to be unable to see clearly in the dark passage, constantly exhaling some cold mist that spread to both ends of the passage, not only indicating that the place had been occupied, but also to detect if anything was approaching.
They were much more powerful than those monsters hidden in the dirt, one of the mutant flower snakes with the strength of an eighth-level apprentice took the lead, and the rest were all seventh-level mutant green snakes.
They were all very vigilant, and they also had a lot of scars on their bodies, and there were a lot of battle marks on the walls of the surrounding passages, but it seemed that the fight was too much, too fierce. Instead, the soil is compacted, and it is much stronger than the loose soil in other places.
And on the wall guarded by the mutant snake, there were several small orange tree-like plants, crystal clear, emitting a faint shimmer.
It is the plant that is crystallized.
Annihilation scans the front and back passages, a distance from which no monsters are hiding inside the walls. He shuttled back and forth, slaying the mutant snake in the cold mist, and stood in front of the crystallized plant.
"It's ...... Wrong! ”
Annihilation only glanced at it twice, and suddenly changed color. Reach out and grasp a leaf that is crystalline, but still soft, and feel it carefully.
"The properties of contagion erosion are gone?"
Annihilation was a little incredulous, and with a slight force of his fingers, he tore off a three-finger-wide leaf and put it in front of his eyes to watch.
Also apply the juice to your hands.
That's right!
As if they had been discovered, although the plants were still alive, they were like dead crystallized creatures, and they were no longer infected with crystallization.
Annihilation anomaly shock.
This is not normal. According to his research in the secret realm before he came to Earth, he found that crystallized creatures will gradually become infected when they are alive, and only after a period of death will this property slowly disappear.
Just like the mutant loach, it was not deeply eroded by crystallization, and its annihilation was also controlled for a while, and it quickly lost its characteristics and could not be infected.
But these living plants have no infectious and erosive properties, and he has never seen or heard of them.
These plants are just low-level resources, and there should have been a few fruits on them, but they were plucked off, leaving fresh marks.
Annihilation stood in place, stopped his mood, tested it several times, and even put the leaves in his mouth and chewed them, without detecting the crystallized infection, as if these plants were just ordinary resources, except for crystal-like bodies.
"The life characteristics are also stable and do not die in a short period of time." He muttered to himself.
This surprised him even more, the cause of the crystallization infection may be in the process of explosion, or in the process of teleportation, or even because some energy channels on the earth are not opened and mutations.
It's kind of speculative. After all, some environments directly limit some energy.
Although rare, it has also appeared a lot.
And in case it can be infected again, this is normal.
But the decay of life force was a unified symptom of crystallization, whether it was the crystallization of his chest and the crystallization of the mouth of the mutant loach, or even the thousands of creatures and countless plants he had seen in the secret realm, all of them were this tendency.
But now, the existence of these plants made him sigh a little.
"If I could have discovered these plants in the first place, I'm afraid I wouldn't have needed to go to the secret realm."
If he had these plants at that time, he would definitely gather wizards to study them in order to find a way to reverse them. Even if you can't, you can survive normally like a small tree in front of you.
But it's also very useful now, and the crystallization on his body may be able to find a way to solve it.
Annihilation hesitated for a moment, and instead of pulling the small tree down, he picked up the corpses of mutant snakes on the ground around him, and began to use their bodies and blood to arrange a magic circle, hiding the small trees, and then condensed an ice shell to cover the small tree inside, sprinkling dirt.
He had to go deeper to see the situation, these plants would not crystallize for no reason, and they should not suddenly dissipate some of their properties, there must be a reason.
And he wants to find the monsters that have eaten the fruit and see their consequences. (To be continued.) )
