Chapter 291: The Ocean in the Trees

'......Boom'

It felt like an earthquake.

Rin's main base is outside the rift valley in the north of the continent, where the wasteland has been transformed into a lush rainforest by Lynn from a wasteland, and here again, it is threatened by the land......

The base was mostly constructed of complex pipes buried underground, and Lynn now felt that these pipes were being squeezed by a tremendous force, and it was clear that tree roots from the ground were entwined in the base's passages.

The creator of Zào is much more powerful than Lin expected, it was able to discover this place so quickly, although Lin knew how it was discovered, because every class of Lin's brain-related troops will have some connection with the Dream Brain, and this creator should have found the location of the Dream Brain......

The creator may have fought with similar species before, so he has the experience of 'finding the brain'.

It may be that when Lin first attacked the roots, the creators only thought that the floating balls and the like were 'wild creatures', so they used a more common way to lure them and catch them......

But it wasn't until Lynn blew up its roots one after another that it realized that this wasn't the case.

I see, did this 'creator' notice Lin very early? It really has a strong thinking ability.

Although its attack method is relatively ordinary.

Many areas of the base were shaking under the squeeze of the roots, and Lynn could feel the roots concentrating on the location of the Dream Brain, which was in a deep pipe and on a circular chitinous base.

But Lynn's base is very strong and not so easy to break. But in order to prevent accidents from happening. It's better to run away first. Thinking about it, Lynn had the Dream Brain sever the threads around it that were used to deliver nutrients, and at the same time several arthropods grew out of the base beneath it, and it quickly climbed up the passage with the Dream Brain on its back.

Because it is attached to the base, there is no need to worry about the brain falling off.

As the Dream Brain moved, the roots began to move underground, burrowing into the dirt outside the base's pipes, sometimes trying to hit the walls of the pipes.

Lynn brought the Dream Brain to a halt near the ground. At this point, the roots of the tree began to coil around the pipe, trying to attack the Dream Brain in the same way......

In this position, he can escape into the air at any time, and at the same time, Lin also began to transfer some of the nutrients stored in the base to a position close to the ground, in fact, most of the nutrients are in a higher position, and there is no need to do too much transfer.

Now let's see who gets the first to be attacked!

'Boom! ’

Under the impact of the pioneers, countless cracks had appeared in the huge trunk, and Lynn was actually surprised. It seems to be very hard, but it's not hard. Rather, it was a structure under the skin, very different from that of ordinary trees, more like some kind of solid stone deep underground, and apart from this tree, only the Plague Dragon could resist the many impacts of the pioneers.

But......

The Pioneer spun his body again and slammed into it, the moment the spinning sharp head slammed into the trunk, the vibration spread instantly, spreading beneath the ground.

'......Boom' In the Emerald Dragon City above, the giant egg stone also shook slightly, and the frightened surrounding jade dragons quickly fled around the giant egg stone, and the wurms perched on the stone were also frightened and scattered in all directions.

Beneath the ground, Lynn could already see some of the larger fissures, and she could see the structure inside the tree.

'Gollum. ’

Grunt?

There was a strange sound in the trunk of the tree, and in the crack in the trunk, a large amount of water suddenly gushed out, and it was like a spring, instantly flooding the underground cavern where the pioneer was.

The 'Goo...... Pioneer shook his body, and countless bubbles floated up, and the place was completely submerged, and there was a large hole in the trunk that the Pioneer could burrow into.

However, Lynn felt that there was something strange about the water, and the water was ...... It's green, it's supposed to be the bodily fluids inside the trunk of the 'Creator' or something, the Pathfinder's shell is currently completely sealed, and there's no way to know what's in it.

The fungus on the Pioneer's body began to grow after contact with the water, and a large number of hyphae began to explode, but they suddenly stopped as they grew, and then they did not move.

This feeling is...... Lynn made the Pioneer shake his body, and the mycelium shattered and scattered like shattered rock under the Pioneer's shake.

I see, the 'fossil fungus' I saw before was really made by the creator of zào?

Lin had thought it strange before, the creator used the virus to infect crazy plants to attack animals, but it was not as efficient as releasing the fungus directly, and it would allow the fungus to devour the organisms of the entire continent and then recycle the fungus.

The reason why the creator does not do this is mainly because of the uncontrollable nature of the fungus, which may become out of its control at some point and start to grow wildly, in which case it is very likely to attack the creator in turn.

Originally, the fungus will not grow in the body of the creator, but after receiving the liquid from the trunk just now, the fungus began to grow, which means that the fungus is out of control, but this liquid may contain some ingredient that will harden the fungus......

The plague fungi that Lin saw may have been primitive fungi that had escaped the control of the creators, and they had undergone some special evolution to become stronger.

And this evolutionary ......

…… The history of fungi is interesting, but it's better to keep an eye on the situation for now.

Thinking about it, Lin asked the pioneer to start turning, and just now because of the large amount of water sprayed, a larger hole burst into the bark of the creator.

The pioneer passed through the hole and swam into the hole in the trunk of the tree.

It's ...... Quite spacious.

After burrowing into the trunk of the tree, the pioneer was presented with a very large space, as if entering the sea, it was completely different from the ordinary solid wood, which was full of water, and the spaciousness of the place could accommodate the entire body of the pioneer lightly.

The water is pale green, like a lake with a lot of mossy plants, because of the pale green, it looks so turbid that you can't see the whole place.

Upon coming in, the Trailblazer also felt some strange sensations, no, he had already felt it when he started to be sprayed with water, it was like...... Brainwave? It's very faint, though......

The Pioneer slowly swam forward in this green space, and although Lynn knew that this was the sending point of the signal, she did not know the exact location, so she had to find it.

It was empty, and it didn't look like there were any organs...... Pregnant.

In the light emitted in front of the pioneers, a huge thing appeared, it was like a bee's nest, the whole was about ten meters long, wide and high, the shape was irregular, and the surface was covered with dense holes, it just floated here alone, and there was nothing around to connect with it......

What is this? The Pioneer opened an opening in the side of his body, and from inside swam a ten-meter-long worm-type unit.

Previously, the Pathfinder's secondary worm class was larger, but Lynn had changed to a smaller size so she could carry more.

The attached worm swam onto the object, and Lynn found that the dense holes above were about half a meter in diameter, because they were so curved that she couldn't see anything.

So, the Attachment Worm released a swarm of warheads no more than ten centimeters in diameter and swam into the hole, and after a few turns, Lynn saw the ...... in the deepest part of the hole Creature.

This is...... Sword fleas? They are fat, piled up in large numbers in the deepest depths, and each one is as big as a centimeter!

That's a big deal, because none of the sword fleas Lynn had encountered before were more than half a millimeter......

The sword fleas kept wriggling, and Lynn let the bullet rush straight up, swallowing several of them.

'Goo! When the warhead devoured the sword fleas, these sword fleas suddenly exploded, and they released a huge amount of dissolved liquid, almost corroding the mouth of the warhead, but a few of them were quickly swallowed by the warhead into the 'stomach' with stronger corrosion resistance, where the sword fleas were quickly decomposed......

This sword flea...... It's the Queen.

Although the sword flea exploded, as far as the debris of the sword flea was dissected, Lynn found that the sword flea had a number of productive structures in its body, and that it was able to produce a large number of eggs in a matter of seconds.

When devouring the queen, the warhead also swallowed a lot of water, and Lin found that there were a huge number of sword fleas in this green water, and there were also some cells.

These cells are very special, they are very similar to a kind of conduction nerve cells in the biological brain, but they are all floating in the water alone.

In addition to these, there are quite a few impurities, all kinds of cells and microscopic organisms, for which it is not yet known what they are used for, but it is their abundant abundance that causes the water here to take on this color.

This thing here should be called the 'Nest of Sword Fleas', but it is alone here, how can it provide a huge amount of Sword Fleas to all the roots?

Maybe there are many such nests? No matter how much it is, let's destroy it first, the pioneer instantly accelerated and slammed into this thing, and under the powerful impact, the nest was instantly drilled into pieces.

Next, let's see if there are any other organs, and if it's too much trouble to find, drill a few more holes in the outer skin, and if too much water leaks out, the whole tree will collapse.

"Goo......" Just as Lin was thinking this, a sudden sound came from above the Pioneer, and I saw a strange thing sink from above...... (To be continued......)
