Chapter 37: Poisoning

Thick clouds pressed against the sky and blocked the sunlight, making the sky and the earth turn black and green, and the poisonous rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the toxin-stained water droplets flowed down the mask into people's eyes, ears, and touched the skin along the gaps in clothing, from the initial slight itch of contact with the toxin, gradually turned into a burning sting. In the poisonous rain, Gu Zheng and Wu Ju stood opposite each other panting slightly, and there were dozens of zombies beside them who had lost their heads.

The green slime belonging to the zombies flowed down from the weapon, and this unwiped weapon would contaminate other items if it was put into the space backpack, so Gu Zheng could only hold the war knife in his hand. Squatting down, he grabbed a piece of clothing that had fallen from a zombie and wiped it on the battle knife, and Gu Zheng found that there were already slight scratches on the blade of the war knife. wiped his face and said: "This poisonous rain also has the characteristics of corrosive weapons, my weapon is enchanted, although it is not advanced, but it will not be lost like this just by cutting these zombies." ”

Wu Ju nodded, casually inserted the weapon in his hand into the head of a zombie to kill the parasites in it, and after scanning the surroundings, he said: "We have cleaned up the zombies around us, and there should be no signal." This place should not stay for a long time, let's leave quickly. ”

After cleaning up the zombies around, Gu Zheng and Wu Ju returned the same way, and when they reached the edge of the canyon, everyone had already climbed over from the canyon and was resting, Wu Ju helplessly spread his hands and said to the logistics staff who rushed over first: "Don't clean it up yet, let's go back to the cave now while the sky is not yet bright." ”

Obviously, the plan of action has been prepared, but at this time, it was changed rashly, and someone in the team immediately stood up and wanted to say something, but Wu Ju waved his hand and said, "Now is not the time to explain, the logistics staff will build a rope again, and use the fastest time to build a road that can be passed by all team members." Combatants are around, Li Cheng, your weapon is relatively large, cut some stones, and use them to cover the entrance of the cave for a while. ”

Although the previous meetings were to ask everyone's opinions to choose the route, at this time, Takeju became serious, and the majesty of being the leader of an adventure group was revealed. Although most people had doubts in their hearts, they still moved according to Wu Ju's request. The logistics staff made ropes to connect the cave where they settled last night, and the rest of the people also had their own positions, and the people of the Fire Feather Adventure Group cooperated with each other quite tacitly, and all actions were carried out in an orderly manner.

Yang Xin has been in the Fire Feather Adventure Group for too short a time, and he has not yet formed a tacit understanding with everyone, when everyone is taking action, Yang Xin can't get involved, but fortunately, he walked to Gu Zheng, who has been standing on the edge, and said, "What did you and Wu Ju find in front of you, how did you change your route immediately?"

Gu Zheng cautiously looked around, and casually handed the war knife in his hand to Yang Xin and said, "You see, my weapon has been corroded. What we just slashed was just some low-level zombies, and my knife was enchanted, so it definitely shouldn't have such a big loss. There is no problem with those zombies, so what is problematic is this poisonous rain. ”

As an experienced adventurer, Yang Xin understood the cause and effect of the matter at that time. As a large-scale Terran habitat, the Ark must go through a detailed investigation before sending out a large-scale mission, for example, this time to encircle and suppress the Zombie Plains, it must be to determine the most dangerous places among them, and then mark these locations, so as not to cause unnecessary losses to adventurers participating in large-scale missions. In the same way, if there is any change in the weather in the area where the large mission is located, the Ark must have told the adventurer in advance.

The strong people in the ark are like clouds, and it may be too late to notify everyone of the changes in a small area, but this kind of weather change within a radius of hundreds of miles can definitely be known in advance. For example, this poisonous rain is recorded in the Ark, and it is written that there are many zombies in the Zombie Plain, because they carry a lot of toxins in their bodies, which affects the air, so it will cause the raindrops to contain toxins. But the threat posed by this poisonous rain is very small, after all, it is nothing more than polluted water droplets.

But this time, this poisonous rain is really a little strong and terrifying. Generally speaking, the poisonous rain in the Zombie Plains will only bring some visual disturbances to people, and even affect E-class adventurers can't do it. But this time, this poisonous rain actually made Gu Zhengdu feel pain, which means that this poisonous rain has been able to bring damage to D-class adventurers, coupled with the corrosion of weapons, this poisonous rain has exceeded the limit of what the zombie plain can naturally generate. In other words, this poisonous rain was deliberately done by living beings, and it was obviously aimed at the menacing Terran army.

Looking up at the sky, Yang Xin sighed worriedly and said, "The creatures that created this poisonous rain are not only powerful enough to affect the weather, but this method is also damaging enough. The use of methods in the poisonous rain is completely boiled frogs in warm water, and no one can react at all at first, but by the time it is reflected, it is too late. We're better, we found it in time, and there aren't many zombies around, if it's in a high-intensity battle and is drenched in this poisonous rain, then something is really going to happen. ”

"Something has happened, Wu Ju and I immediately tried to contact the ark after discovering that there was a problem with this poisonous rain, but as long as it is within the range of this poisonous rain, the remote communication device cannot be used at all. Maybe our communication device is too low-level, but the problem is that on the Zombie Plains, most of them are low-level adventuring teams. Gu Zheng sneered: "This poisonous rain is processed, and the toxins in themselves will not be felt, but as long as this poisonous rain is in contact with the blood of zombies, it will produce an extremely powerful poison formation effect." Let's be a little better, there are not many zombies in contact, after all, most of the zombies are attracted to the maze. Think about the zombie tide we came into contact with yesterday, so many zombies surround it, I don't know how many people will die. And with such a big game, the mastermind behind the scenes is obviously very big, and there must be a backhand, if this time the matter is not handled well, I am afraid that many people will die, then the ark that released this large-scale task, I am afraid that something will happen. ”

"Holy Church, Discipline Office, Magic Association......" shook his head Yang Xin said helplessly: "There are too many forces in the Ark, competing for power and profit, this time I'm afraid it will be another turmoil." ”

Standing up straight, Yang Xin also pulled out his weapon from the space backpack and said: "There's no need to worry so much, the ark is an ark after all, and I haven't experienced any strong winds and waves over the years, not to mention this small fluctuation this time." Even if something happens to the top of the ark and the person in charge changes, it has nothing to do with us, let's think about ourselves. ”

In the poisonous rain, there was already a figure coming from a distance, although it was not clear to see the appearance, but the swaying figure was obviously a zombie. Dense, like a black tide, there are still hundreds of meters away, but there are already successive roars, zombies are coming, but the bridge behind him is only a prototype.
