Chapter 198: Herbivorous Beast [Second Update]
Sleep for 4 hours first, get up at 8 o'clock to yard the third watch, come out before 12 o'clock, sleep again in the afternoon, get up at five o'clock to continue the third watch, should be the first shift before 9 o'clock, work and rest slowly move, suddenly can't twist up, and finally ask for a recommended ticket and a monthly pass!
……
There are 380,000 species of plants known on the earth, each plant has different characteristics, under the erosion of the virus, almost ninety percent of the internal structure of plants have changed, the characteristics have been strengthened, or changed, about one percent of the trees, will completely mutate, become a man-eating tree.
Cannibal trees do not have much need for sunlight and soil, mainly relying on blood and meat to supplement their survival nutrients, if they do not eat flesh and blood for a long time, they will be weak and weak, the chlorophyll in their bodies is destroyed by the virus, and the supplement brought by photosynthesis is very weak, and it will be completely weak at night.
Mutant plants have particularly high requirements for the surrounding environment and water and soil, unless it is a particularly adaptable tree species, such as a small grass monster, they will not move their bodies, and once they move, they will be greatly injured or die directly.
The "spring tree" is not a man-eating tree, but a mutated tree species that still relies on photosynthesis and soil for life, and has no self-awareness.
In addition to the "spring water tree", there are many magical mutant trees, such as the "thermal insulation tree" that can sense the humidity of the air, when encountering cold air currents, the leaves of the "thermal insulation tree" will shrink into a ball to resist the cold, the leaves have the effect of isolating the cold, and the tree pole inside can emit heat.
However, if you want to enter the leaf bed of the "insulation tree", you need to pay a very high fee.
In addition, there is a mutated tree called "rice tree", which is a mutation of the Nishigu coconut tree, which was known as the "rice tree" in the old times, and generally grows in places with high tropical temperatures and full sunshine, such as the Philippines, Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries by the islands.
In addition to the coconut tree in the West Valley will produce coconuts, its tough bark also has a lot of starch, people living on the island, will be before the coconut tree blooms, the tree will be cut open, scraped out of the starch, into the West Valley rice use, is the main food of the local people, and these West Valley coconut trees have been strengthened and transformed by the virus, the production rate of starch in the tree has greatly increased, as long as the head of the tree is cut off, you can take out a steady stream of starch from it, a "rice tree" can feed ten people's food!
However, in an inland area like Jianmen Pass, it is impossible to have a "rice tree", nor can it be transplanted, and the ecological environment cannot be supported.
Whoosh!
As soon as Lin Chao entered the woods, seven or eight vines flew over, like bright red tentacles, full of earthy smell.
Lin Chao had already prepared, and he wrangled a few guns with a few guns, opened the realm of God, and continued to search, with the vast trees in this Shu Dao, it was not difficult to find hundreds of "spring water trees".
It didn't take long for Lin Chao to see two rare trees, namely the "Dragon Fragrance Tree" and the "Jianmu Tree", the leaves of this Dragon Fragrance Tree can be processed into animal repellent spices, and ordinary reptile monsters will immediately retreat when they smell such spices, and they dare not approach.
The Solid Wood Tree is a bare tree without any leaves, and its internal wood is very solid, almost as hard as metal, and can be used to build fortified houses or make wooden stick weapons.
Lin Chao wrote down the locations of these two types of trees, and then continued to search.
There were no monsters or carrion in the woods, only some of the scattered human clothes had fallen under the cannibal tree, apparently eaten, and the bones had been buried under the cannibal tree as nourishment.
Ten minutes later, Lin Chao finally found the first spring water tree.
I saw that this spring tree was about ten meters high, the leaves were fluffy and lush, and the leaves were as green as jade, and the appearance was similar to the spring tree in Lin Chao's memory.
Lin Chao stretched out his hand to poke a small hole in the tree pole, and immediately there was cool water bubbling out of it, he reached out and drank a little, the water was sweet, there was no smell of virus decay, and immediately blocked the mouth of the tree with his mouth, and after drinking enough, he grabbed a piece of bark and plugged the gap, with the vitality of this tree, this wound can be healed quickly.
Lin Chao wrote down the coordinates and continued to move forward, a single spring water tree could only support the water needs of twenty people, and at least a hundred of them would be enough.
Rustling~!
At this moment, Lin Chao suddenly heard the sound of leaves rubbing, in the woods where the breeze was swaying, such a sound was normal, but with instinctive vigilance and years of experience, Lin Chao sensed a trace of unusualness at the first time.
The sound of leaves came from the ground, and it was not like the fluttering of leaves, but the sound of being crushed and sinking!
There are monsters!
Lin Chao's eyes narrowed, looking in the direction of the source of the sound, and controlled the distortion of the surrounding light, hiding his figure, there was dead body powder plus his skill in controlling pores, as long as it was not a monster with infrared vision, he would not be able to detect him.
I saw a lizard-like monster, slowly crawling in the woods six hundred meters away, about two meters long, the skin on the surface changed color with the surrounding environment, if it wasn't for the ability of light to lock, it would be impossible to see the appearance of this monster at all, just like a killer hidden in the woods.
"Herbivores?" Lin Chao was a little surprised.
All monsters in the world have become bloodthirsty and violent under the infection of the virus, even meek animals such as sheep, white rabbits, and deer will become ferocious carnivorous beasts. The exception is the Herbivorous Beast, one of the few omnivorous monsters that eat meat, but its main favorite food is plants.
However, it only eats plants such as man-eating trees, and does not pay attention to ordinary mutated trees.
I saw this lizard-like herbivore, sneaking under a pine-like tree, suddenly bursting out of its camouflaged state, opening a bloody mouth, its mouth full of dense sharp teeth, and biting fiercely on the tree pole.
The pole shook violently, and a large number of dark red rhizomes were lifted from under the tree, and they slapped at the herbivore, strangling it tightly.
However, the herbivore was worthy of its nemesis, the scales on its epidermis suddenly stood up, like sharp blades, and immediately cut a large number of wounds on the tightly strangled rhizome, and in addition, its mouth squirmed wildly, and with a flick of its head, it only took less than 30 seconds to bite off the twenty-centimeter-diameter tree pole.
The green liquid gushed out of it, and the herbivore quickly swallowed it, swallowing it incessantly, and the rhizome tentacles wrapped around it gradually weakened.
The cannibal tree was quickly eaten by the roots, leaving only a few unnutritious branches and leaves scattered on the ground.
Lin Chao's eyes flashed, and suddenly flashed out.
Speed Boost!
Burst!
The figure flashed, the ancient spear was like electricity, and it flew out from the back of the herbivore, and before it had time to react, a shot was nailed to its skull, piercing the skull directly, and its entire body suddenly stiffened and tightened, and then flopped like a deflated balloon, and the tail behind it twitched unconsciously.
Lin Chao pulled out the ancient spear and began to dissect its corpse.
The most valuable thing on the herbivore is its outer skin, which can imitate the strange cell structure inside and develop light-sensitive color-changing camouflage items with similar functions, although this does not have much effect on Lin Chao, his transformation ability can solve it, but for the base, it is very useful!
Just imagine, if everyone has such camouflage items, then when hunting, seven or eight people get close to the camouflage and get close to the prey, and then suddenly rise up to kill, even some large monsters, in the case of being caught off guard, may be seriously injured, or even killed in seconds!
In addition, when encountering danger, it can also escape in camouflage to reduce the casualty rate.
Soon, Lin Chao skillfully peeled off the outer skin of this herbivore, scraped the meat inside, folded and rolled it up, and threw it into the black storage bag behind it.
Looking at the bloody flesh and blood body of the herbivore on the ground, Lin Chao's heart moved, the herbivore's vision could see the chlorophyll in the trees, if he transformed his pupils into the eyes of the herbivore, he would be able to easily distinguish which plants were of which species, just like before, this herbivore could easily find out the man-eating tree.
In this way, the time spent searching for the spring trees can be greatly reduced, otherwise hundreds of spring trees would have to be searched for a day or two.
Thinking of this, Lin Chao immediately bent down and collected a little blood from the herbivore beast with his fingers, and analyzed it with the evolutionary tree, although it was the blood of the monster, it could not form a gene point, but it could decompose the gene sequence.
This genetic sequence was very useful for his transformation.
The ability to deform is divided into external deformation, as well as internal deformation.
The external deformation is very simple, and the control of cells and muscles can change at will, whether male or female, beautiful or ugly, human or strange, but these are only vain, and the inside is still his own structure, such as turning the pupil into an eagle eye, and he will not really have the ultra-long-range motion capture ability of the eagle eye.
In order to morph into a true eagle eye, the genetic sequence of the eagle eye is required.
If there is no evolutionary tree, if Lin Chao wants to carry out internal transformation, he needs to collect blood samples, send them to the scientific research institute for research, and then memorize the genetic sequences that have been studied, and then simulate the transformation, which is a very cumbersome process.
With the evolutionary tree, it is different, the evolutionary tree is closely connected to his brain, and the collected genetic information, after analysis, will be directly reported to the brain, just like engraved on the memory cells, you can't forget it, even if the recorded memory cells are exhausted and necrotic, you can call up the reserve information from the evolutionary tree again.
Soon, the analyzed gene sequence was loaded into Lin Chao's brain.
Deformation!
Lin Chao's pupils turned slightly, and his black and white eyes instantly turned into beast-like amber vertical pupils, full of cruelty and evil feelings. R1152
