Chapter Thirty-Six: Anything that glows is dangerous
What appeared in front of Lynn and Tucker was a ...... Tree.
But Lin was suspicious that it wasn't a tree, and although it looked like it had a thick trunk and rough bark, and a large number of branches, it was a large number of structures that bent and drooped like tentacles, which almost touched the ground, and it was these tentacles that emitted a pale blue glow......
It doesn't really need to grow leaves deep underground, but what is it used for with this strange tentacle? The tree also has a large root system, and around it you can see a thick root system that protrudes from the surface, and the roots and tentacles glow like that.
And, where did those three white dragons go? There are no of them here, but the tree is more than five meters tall and is located right in the center of the cave, and if you look behind the tree, you can see two forks.
They should run in one of the directions, but they have to go around the tree before they do.
And this cave is also quite strange, why is there so much water here?
Tucker didn't dare to act casually when he saw this strange tree, he must have encountered many kinds of trap plants when he was on land before, these plants all feed on animals, and they are much more terrifying than ordinary photosynthetic plants.
However, Tucker usually has a way of dealing with this plant, he picks up a stone from the ground and throws it at the tree.
'Smack. The stone passed through the pile of glowing tentacles and smashed against the trunk of the tree, and the tree did not react......
Tucker threw a few more pieces in a row, but there was still no response, but some plants only react when animals pass by, and this method may not be accurate.
Then Tucker pulled out a jade from the pouch he was wearing. It threw Mao Yu at the tree. At the moment when Mao Yu touched the tentacles of the tree...... Still nothing happened. Then Mao Yu crashed into the tree and fell into the water below the tree, and quickly swam and escaped......
Doesn't seem to be a problem.
Tucker must have thought so, and he slowly walked towards the tree, at which point Lynn immediately told him to stop.
Tucker looked at Lynn suspiciously, and Lin let the pterosaur fly over, and as it approached the tree, the pterosaur suddenly opened its mouth and spewed a large pile of slime that stuck to its hanging tentacles.
This mucus is irritating and can be called 'spicy'. As soon as the tentacles touched the slime, they began to twitch and retracted into the trunk of the tree in a matter of seconds.
The tentacles of the entire tree, including those that had not been spilled with slime, shrank back, and the cave suddenly dimmed, and the pterosaur once again glowed, illuminating the entire cavern.
Lin estimated that the tree should not be predatory, but its tentacles would cause some special dangerous effect, and the Mao Yu who had just touched it swam about ten meters away and died, but Tucker didn't seem to notice, after all, it was in the water.
Now, Lynn and Tucker will face a fork in the road. Where will the two white dragons be? In general, smells can tell where they are. But the peculiar thing is ...... There is a smell on both sides.
Did they run apart? But in that case, just go aside, and Lynn asked Tucker to choose, and he chose the deeper-looking cave on the left.
After walking more than ten meters away, there is no water in this cave, it seems that there is only water on the side of the tree, does that water have anything to do with the tree?
The caves of this generation are all ordinary rocks, not the white 'salt stones' of the previous generation, and the ground is also the usual gravel, the rocks and the ground of the cave walls are quite dry, there is no feeling of dampness at all, and no living things have been found.
As she got closer to the scent, Lynn saw strange marks on the sand on the ground, like ...... Painted on it.
This is supposed to be painted by the White Dragon, which is very similar to what the Tucker people usually like to paint, and there are some broken bones next to these traces, which seem to be used for carving.
"......"
A voice sounded ahead, and Lynn and Tucker had reached the end of the cavern, and below the end, a white skeleton dragon was standing.
Is there only one? Sure enough, they separated and ran away.
"Quack!" As soon as the white skeleton dragon saw Tucker, he began to scream, but Tucker didn't quarrel with it at this time, and directly picked up the sharp stone and rushed up! It stabbed the white dragon in the abdomen with a sharp stone, but the white dragon jumped to the side, dodging the stabbing blow.
It's a strange feeling.
Lynn noticed that Tucker's speed was a little slower than usual, especially his leg seemed to have a problem, and there was a scar on his leg that had been bitten by a meat cleaver, but the scar had not healed yet.
Meat cutting ants do not secrete lytic fluids and are not poisonous...... This is really weird.
Tucker continued to turn and stab at the White Dragon, but its speed was significantly slower this time, and the White Dragon stepped back to dodge, and then it stood on one leg, its body quickly spun in a circle, and its long tail swept violently on Tucker's leg, and Tucker fell to the ground by its blow.
There are a lot of different skills in the battle of the skeleton dragons, and they are more concerned about whether they are injured than if they fight hard with strength.
The White Dragon raised its claws and stabbed at Tucker! Tucker, on the other hand, rolled around the ground a few times at a faster pace and then jumped up, but the moment he jumped, he suddenly fell to the ground again with his leg crooked, and the stone in his hand rolled out.
Sure enough, there was a problem with the leg.
The White Skeleton Dragon had clearly noticed Tucker's problem, and it would not let go of this opportunity, as it picked up Tucker's stone from the ground and stabbed it in the head!
Lynn had barely helped Tucker or the other dragons in battle, and it seemed that she had to help this time.
At the moment when the White Skeleton Dragon was about to stab Tucker, the Pterodactyl suddenly pounced on its head, and its sharp mouth pierced into the White Dragon's eyes.
With a scream, blood burst out of the white dragon's eyes, and it immediately stretched out its claws and grabbed the pterodactyl's neck, and then threw the pterosaur out with all its might.
Lin felt the white skeleton dragon full of anger, and it kept making this "......" sound from its mouth, and walked towards the pterodactyl.
This pterosaur had no attack ability, and its size was not large, so it could only do some surprise attacks, and the white skeleton dragon angrily rushed to the pterodactyl's side and grabbed the pterodactyl's neck. Stab the pterodactyl in the eye with a sharp stone.
The pterodactyl's pierced eyes splattered with a large amount of blood. But the pterosaur didn't scream. There was no running or dodging either.
The White Skeleton Dragon seemed to be a little puzzled, this pterosaur reacted differently from normal creatures, and at this moment, dozens of small needles suddenly shot out of the pierced eye of the pterosaur, and these needles flew into the eye wound of the White Skeleton Dragon at high speed, injecting a large number of tiny troops inside.
"Gah!" The White Skeleton Dragon screamed again, and it fell to the ground, now a large number of miniature units that had invaded its body through its wounds. Many creatures will die from bacterial infections in their wounds, but Lin can do much more than bacteria, they can release a large amount of lysate along the way to kill the cells, destroying all the structures of Miè, and at the same time, the eyes of the pterosaur have stopped bleeding and are slowly recovering.
Lynn looked at the white dragon struggling on the ground and ignored it, instead flying towards Tucker.
Tucker was lying on the ground now, his legs seemed to be completely unable to move, and he could only watch the battle between the pterosaur and the white skeleton dragon with panic. And when the pterosaur flew up to it, Lin could clearly feel that it had become relieved.
Now it's time to examine its wounds. Tucker's wounds hadn't healed, but they weren't bleeding, and the pterosaurs unleashed some miniature units into his wounds that were identical to the invading White Dragons to explore, effectively being smaller 'healers'.
The blood on the wound was in a strange state, as if it had been coagulated, and Lynn's healer had to drill a hole in it before entering.
'......Boom'
At this moment, Lynn heard a sound coming from her surroundings, as if the cave was shaking.
However, the test is more important now, and the healers who have drilled into the blood vessels have found that there is this kind of coagulation, and the whole blood vessel is filled with a strange liquid, which is very viscous, it can not only clog the blood vessels, but also make the muscles work, and there are some similarities to the liquid used by the Inca swarm to shape the statues.
Where do these liquids come from?
By the way, it was over the tree before.
There was water all around the tree, but was that why the White Dragons didn't drink it? There's a fluid in it that hardens the blood and muscles? Because Tucker's leg had been bitten by a meat cleaver, this liquid had penetrated into it, was it made by the tree? Why does it make such a strange liquid, if it is said to be a predator, it is too slow to take effect, is it used for defense? But what creatures here will eat it? Meat cleaver ants? Lynn felt that the creature's stomach couldn't digest plants.
This liquid is called a 'petrified toxin', and there are a lot of fungal fossils here, so I wonder if it has anything to do with this?
The sound before the '......boom' sounded again, this time the vibration was more intense, and Lin could clearly feel the trembling, and the tremor continued.
Lynn is now working on the liquids, and Lynn has the healers try to make a liquid that dissolves the petrochemical toxins and does not harm the Tucker cells.
This is not very difficult, but the completion speed is relatively slow, and you can only release a little at a time, and if you release too much at a time, it will still block the blood vessels.
'......Click' Under the continuous trembling of the cave, some cracks began to appear in the cave wall, as if this place was about to collapse.
I don't know why this place is collapsing, but we have to hurry.
The healer mainly dissolved the petrified toxin in Tucker's muscles, and at the same time, the pterosaur lowered more healers again, and some stones had fallen from the collapsed cavern, and with the swift action of the healer, most of the petrified toxins were finally removed, and Tucker was able to resume his actions.
"Run!"
Lynn flapped its wings and flew, and Tucker knew that it had become dangerous, and that it had no time to show excitement or dance, so it immediately stood up and began to run in the direction it had entered.
But as Tucker ran a few steps, it suddenly fell to the ground with a thud, not because its petrified toxin wasn't healed, but because it was ...... The almost dying white dragon grabbed its legs!
Lynn's troops had broken its windpipe, but it still had the last of its strength? Moreover, Lin can feel its feelings, not fear or fear or the like, but a very reassuring feeling...... (To be continued......)
