Chapter 179: Want to Have Some Barbecue?
The swollen mushrooms burst into huge amounts of fungus dust, which flew onto the rocky trees, beginning to corrode the bark and leaves and grow......
When Lin saw this scene, she felt a little incredible, fungi should be creatures without brains and eyes, why could they know how to combine this way to infect trees?
Maybe it's made by locusts, and how many locusts are flying over the fungi near the rocks, and maybe they can send some kind of message to the fungus?
The bark surface of the rocky ground is now covered with a large amount of mycelium, and the trees are slowly covered in this layer of mycelium, which then forms pom-pom structures that explode and scatter fungal dust to nearby trees.
If this continues, they will infect all trees on the rocky ground.
But Lynn has seen enough of them now, so let's get rid of them.
Although they are interesting creatures, they are so ruinous that it is not known how many islands they have eaten, and if they reach the North Continent, they will destroy a qiē there.
Lin was quite curious why she hadn't seen this group of wandering plagues before, could it be that they were sweeping through other continents before? Either way, now it's time to make sure you'll never see them!
Charge!
Above the rocks, a large number of land troops appeared, this was Lynn's vanguard, the Predators, who frantically rushed towards the mossy fields that were already fungal jungles, and on the way, many trees were already covered with fungi, and the amount of fungus dust they released affected this Predator army.
Normally, attacking fungi with predators is to give them nutrients, so Lynn's predators are equipped with a new and simple structure.
…… Flame.
The predators surrounded several fungal-infested trees, which raised their front paws. Shoots a fiery red flame at it. The flame spreads and burns instantaneously upon contact with the fungus. The whole tree was suddenly enveloped in this intense firelight, and it slowly disappeared along with the fungus in the heat.
It was easy for Lynn to create a flame, as she created a flammable liquid that ejected from the predator's hollow front paws, and at the moment of ejection, the small explosives attached to the launch port exploded at the same time, causing the flames to ignite the liquid that had been sprayed.
Lynn hadn't used fire as a devastating attack, though the Inca swarm liked it. However, it is still necessary to use fungi that are equally destructive.
These 'flame predators' burn every fungal-infested tree on the rocky ground, and they have a lot of fungus dust stuck to their bodies at the same time, but the predators can spew fire at each other to burn the fungus dust, and their carapaces can withstand the flames for a short time.
After burning the trees on the rocky floor, the predators rushed to the fungal woodland, but instead of rushing directly into it, they sprayed flames at the edge into the fungal blanket and mushrooms on the ground, and the flames spread violently along the fungus, burning strongly towards the fungal woodland. All the qiē crackled in the heat, and thick smoke and dust rose up on the ground.
The smell of these fungi is quite 'fragrant'. It's like a barbecue.
Speaking of which, the characteristics of fungi are really similar to fire, which also converts anything possible into their own 'nutrients' and constantly multiplies, although they do not think about their own survival, but the world is full of flame 'seeds' as long as the temperature is high enough, they will appear......
The fungus multiplied quickly, but it was as if it were still compared to the flames, and the predators stepped on the flame-burned fungus field and continued to follow the flames to move deeper, and the locusts that were eating the fungus saw the flames approaching, and they flew up, and they also spotted the predators behind the flames.
At this moment, all the locusts spread their wings and rushed towards the predator in a frenzied manner!
The predators were ready, raising their forelimbs and spewing flames at the locusts that rushed in the air.
The range of the predator is only a few meters or so, and the locusts that rush down pounce on the predator before it is completely burned, and they bite the predator with their mouths when their whole body is on fire, but the predator has not completely abandoned the ability to fight, they immediately wave their claws and start to fight back.
The predator can easily shred a locust half its size, and when the locust is torn apart, its body is immediately burned by flames, preventing the possibility of a fungus from growing.
Hundreds of locusts were torn apart and burned by the predators, and only a few of the predators died, mostly trapped between the burning locust carcasses, while the fire continued to spread in the distance, so that Lynn would soon be able to burn the fungal woodland.
Fire...... Spreading?
Lynn suddenly noticed that the fire in the distance seemed to spread much slower, not as fast as it had at first.
Lynn immediately asked several predators to bypass the burning locust carcasses, and Lynn found that the fungi seemed to secrete a viscous liquid that stopped the flames from growing.
Sure enough, there is a way to protect it, and some locusts start to suck the liquid on the fungus, and when it sucks up to the belly, it flies to the flame and spits out the liquid to extinguish the fire.
It seems that they must have been attacked by flames, and there are ways to deal with them.
This Lynn is not surprised, since this is the case, it would be good to use the second method of combat, and Lynn found that only the outermost fungus that resists the flames has the appearance of secreting liquid......
Then, Lynn told the predators to charge again! They rushed straight through the sea of fire in front of them, skipping the outer fungi that secreted mucus and rushed deeper into the fungal woodland, spewing flames at those that didn't.
The flames spread again, but not far, the fungus around it instantly secreted liquid to stop the flames, and at the same time, the pom-pom-like structures on the ground covered by the fungus began to expand and burst, and they burst and sputtered a large amount of liquid sprayed on the predators, these liquids seemed to be very corrosive, they eroded the shells of the predators, and at the same time, a large amount of fungus dust also stuck to the corroded parts, and began to grow.
Looks like that's all the predators can do.
The infected predators began spraying each other with liquid, and in this there they detonated the ignition explosives on their bodies, and in an instant, each predator was lit up with a fiery glow, and they continued their final sprint into the fungal jungle......
At the same time, Lynn's other troops began to prepare, and Lynn thought that it might not be so easy to get rid of them.
After all, the locusts that landed on the islands were only a small part, and on the coast there were still huge numbers of locusts wandering and flying. (To be continued......)
