After the three of them left the office area where No. 4 was located, they opened the door again and melted into the blood-red fog outside, and then walked all the way to the southern city of Beijing in the direction of their memories - Daxing District and those weeping refugees were in that place.

High walls and guards can't stop powerful people, in the eyes of the refugees outside, the high wall is an impassable moat, but in the eyes of the trialists, it is a fence, you can go out if you want, you can enter when you want, and you can come and go freely. Everyone, because of their own strength, has different visions, but in this world, everyone has a moat - the moat of No. 4 is a willow tree, the moat of amphibians is breeding, and the moat of Li Qing and others is the task itself.

Arming yourself by all means is the most important task now.

After climbing over the high wall, the crowd did not stop in Daxing District, but went straight through the refugee area, using the fog to burrow into the dense jungle outside the city.

The outer part of the jungle is relatively sparse and less dangerous because of its proximity to the human habitat – but this is definitely not to say that species that are close to the human biosphere are not powerful. Because the species that dare to thrive on the edge of the city are most represented by two groups - the first is weaker, squeezed out by the more complex ecosystem inside the jungle, and of course no matter how weak it is, it will not be vulnerable, because the very weak species have long been eliminated; The second type is more tough, they will not feel uncomfortable because the human city is nearby and migrate into the jungle, they are native to this place, and they don't go anywhere This kind of soil overlord species is not much, but it can definitely be found.

This is the goal of Li Qing and others this time.

When the three of them returned to the jungle, they could still see five meters away, but they could tell the number of animal clusters in their surroundings from the suppressed humming around them.

"Let's find an easy one to try first?" As soon as he entered the jungle, Li Qing stopped, and then his spiritual power poured into his eyeballs, looking around.

The jungle is full of creatures, even if it is a marginal area, there must be life forms within a few tens of meters around, Li Qing took advantage of his vision to scan around, and then saw a squirrel-like thing above the treetops. This thing hangs from a branch, hidden behind a leaf, and it is generally difficult to see it unless it is targeted by predators. So, even though it heard the noise under the tree, it didn't move.

"Chen Si, behind this leaf on your head, there is a squirrel that looks like it will change color, can you catch it?" The squirrel was very alert, and when Li Qing pointed at it, he suddenly raised his head and pricked up his ears, and between his mouth, he made an alert appearance.

"Why don't you catch it yourself?"

"I feel that with my technique, unless I turn on the control state, it is impossible to catch it." As he spoke, Li Qing slapped the bow and crossbow behind him, "It's okay to shoot to death." ”

"Okay, I'll give it a try." Between Chen Si's words, her body jumped, and the person rose in place like a light swallow, her body was very agile, and after the addition of internal strength, her body method in Li Qing's opinion had completely surpassed the light skill effect of those martial arts movies he had seen before.

"There's no need to chase, when you take off, you'll be gone." Li Qing shouted from below, stopping Chen Si's next move.

For a moment just now, although Li Qing was surprised by Chen Si's posture, he was even more surprised by the reflexes of this weak animal. Li Qing saw it just now, almost the moment Chen Si's toes left the ground, the squirrel-like thing was like a bolt of lightning into the depths of the trees, during which the fur on his body changed color a few times, and Li Qing didn't even see its escape route clearly, so he let the other party disappear from his field of vision, completely hidden behind the dense fog and canopy.

"It's not blinding me." Jumping down from the canopy, Chen Si let out a sigh, "I didn't see anything." ”

"The animals here are particularly alert, the strong ones are difficult to deal with, and the weak ones are almost impossible to catch." Li Qing didn't care about Chen Si's complaints, but touched his chin and said: "I finally know why those refugees are hungry like that, and no one organizes to hunt in the jungle. ”

"What then?" Zhizhi asked beside him.

"Let's take a look, if it doesn't work, I'll let out some blood and see if I can attract some hunters." Li Qing waved his hand and made a forward gesture as he spoke, "Let's go to the front and take a look first." ”

The trio continued to walk deeper into the jungle.

This time, because he was in good time, and Li Qing was not seriously injured, he observed the structure and composition of this doomsday jungle in a relatively good state. In general, the ways in which various species obtain energy have been diversified, and the animal diet is also omnivorous, and the entire food chain has broken into a complex food network.

For example, in the past, as the main body of the jungle, plants, except for a few plants such as man-eating flowers that exist in rare areas, most of them appeared as producers, they drew nutrients from the soil and sunlight, and then grew themselves, and their bodies could be supplied to other animals without being able to resist, which can be regarded as authentic producers.

But nowadays, many trees are self-protective – they may have poisonous foliage, they may smell bad, or they may be outright aggressive, and some may even cooperate with other species to hunt for food.

For example, the kind of cooperation between meat insects and tree vines that Li Qing encountered when he first entered this mission, the tree vines help meat insects attack their prey, and the prey residues eaten by meat insects can provide nutrients to those trees. The meat worm's ambush ability is insufficient, and the tree vine's offensive follow-up ability is insufficient, and the two sides cooperate with each other to take what they need.

Similar to the original world, there are more and more species cooperation between rhinoceros and spirit hornbills, and the producer attribute of plants is also marked in quotation marks.

In a word, in this world, in order to be better and more convenient for their own survival, these species have evolved in a variety of ways, you may see trees eating meat, you may also see tigers eating grass, animals are becoming more and more omnivorous, and a strong stomach allows them to digest a qiē organic matter.

For a morning, Li Qing and the three of them searched for animals in the jungle, and then ran into walls everywhere.

The senses of those weak species are really not comparable to those of them humans, who can avoid them when they hear some wind and grass from afar, or smell the smell of danger. And those powerful predatory food species, Li Qing didn't really want to provoke, after all, if he was injured here, it would not be cost-effective - and some of them really couldn't be defeated.

Therefore, after putting aside these strange things back and forth, Li Qing and the others set their sights on a nest of ants.

"Ants have almost no eyesight, and they have terrible hearing without ears." Li Qing pointed to the half-human-sized, winged flying ants lying on the canopy, and said, "You also saw this thing just now, it is very, very powerful, two ants instantly tore a bird several times their size into pieces." Ants have a very special body structure, the muscle capacity between the limbs is 500 times that of human body structure, and you don't have it now, where this nest of ants is, there are other species around it very, very rare. In the jungle, this phenomenon is only a phenomenon that only real kings have - the king ecosphere, just like animals will avoid the human ecosphere, only particularly powerful species will have this individual ecosphere phenomenon. ”

Hiding behind a big tree, Li Qing explained to Zhizhi the body structure of the ants and the current strange ecological phenomenon - this nest of ants was heard by them in the jungle before, and after hearing the sound, the three of them followed the sound and saw the scene of the flying ants hunting cruelly. A flock of flying birds, in an instant, were torn into pieces of flesh and carried away by them. Then Li Qing and the others followed the group of soldiers to this place - the ants are very strong in combat, but their senses are very simple, and their intelligence is very poor, so they are not suitable for the charm skills of the branches.

"How to get close, there are a lot of ants of this size on the tree, what if the branches go to alarm these things, when the time comes, she will definitely be killed." Hearing Li Qing's instigation, Chen Si was a little unhappy to take such a big risk, "When the time comes, we can't save it, and we won't be opponents of that thing." ”

"Sister Chen Si, thank you for saying that, but in this mission, I also hope that I will become stronger, not only for you, but also for myself." Chen Sizheng wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Zhizhi's voice, "Everyone knows that this task is difficult, to be honest, everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, and when they encounter real danger, only themselves can protect themselves in the first place." So, in a nightmare mission, it's impossible not to take risks, and it's better to take this kind of risk that you can control than to be unable to protect yourself when you encounter greater dangers later, which is good for you and for myself. ”

"I really know how to speak, and I refuse others so tactfully and sonorously, no wonder I can coax others." Li Qing listened to Zhizhi's words, praised him, and then took out the leaves that he had previously contained in his arms.

"What is this?" After seeing Li Qing take out the leaves, he kneaded them, and the juice in the entire leaves splashed out, revealing a strong foul smell.

"It's a smelly leaf, I picked it when I was passing by." After Li Qing crumpled it, he pasted the thing that was more smelly than dung on the head of the branch, "I thought it would be useful, so I took it with me." Don't move, this smell will cover all the breath on your body, I think the flying ant has a good sense of smell on the antennae, and you will be invisible. ”
