Chapter 1189: Terrible Ecology
"What you see now is the outline of the 'Desperate Battlefield'."
"So far, there have been five 'desperate battlefields' in the world. We have numbered them in chronological order in which 'Desperate Battlefield' appeared. ”
"This one behind the Chiyan base, number 03."
On the podium, Xu Tao said loudly.
"In the 'Desperate Battlefield', there will be an energy called 'Nether Particle', which is released by the 'Netherland'."
"You all know the Void, there are usually Gaps in the Forbidden Land, and the giant beasts can improve their rank by absorbing the energy of the Void."
"Normally, the 'Nether Particles' released by the Yin Yin will be quickly neutralized by the ubiquitous Yuan Force."
"However, in the 'Desperate Battlefield', due to the large number of Netherlands, coupled with the influence of the Overlord and Nightmare-level Behemoths, the 'Nether Particles' cannot be completely neutralized."
"They are ubiquitous in the 'Desperate Battlefield', but fortunately, there are only a limited number of 'Nether Particles' per unit of space, and their concentration has not yet reached a level that would kill ordinary people."
"Even so, the 'Nether Particle' will still have an impact on us humans, and ordinary people's immunity will be reduced in the 'Desperate Battlefield', and the overall body function will decline."
"The cultivator's body has no effect, but the operation of the Yuan Force will be a few minutes slower than usual, and the perception will also be limited to a certain extent due to the existence of the 'Nether Particle'."
"Also...."
Xu Tao pointed towards the dense fog on the big screen.
"This is the 'phantom', which is formed by a high concentration of 'nether particles' gathered together, and they cannot be blown by the wind, and will stay in a specific area."
"The 'miasma' is very dangerous, and when ordinary people enter it, they will soon experience hypothermia, and the blood will mutate and become highly toxic."
"A cultivator's Yuan Force can neutralize these phenomena, but in the 'Miasma', the cultivator will be in a rather disadvantageous state."
"In order to neutralize the influence of the 'phantom miasma', the Yuan Force will be consumed at an extremely fast rate, and at the same time, it will lose its sense of direction and distance, and even the instrument will lose its effect."
"The formation of the 'ghostly miasma' is related to the 'ghostly vein', and the 'ghostly vein' is a special leyline formed by the accumulation of a large number of secluded veins."
"Basically, where there is a 'miasma', there must be a 'vein', and it is also a place where giant beasts gather, so if you see a 'miasma', don't approach it easily."
"Of course, as students of the academy, you will be moving in the safe zone, and there will basically be no 'ghost barriers' and 'ghost veins' in the safe zone."
Rustle~
Luo Yan took a ballpoint pen, wrote down what Xu Tao said in his notebook, and took notes seriously.
Bai Yan was also taking notes, but she copied slowly, glancing at Luo Yan's notebook from time to time, and then worked hard to fill in the blanks in the notebook.
On the podium, Xu Tao let the students digest the information before continuing.
"The 'phantom' and 'phantom veins' I mentioned above belong to one of the more special ecosystems on the battlefield."
"Next, I'm going to mention another special kind of survival."
"Pain Wood."
On the large screen, a large black tree appears in the shape of an arbor, but its branches are extremely twisted and look like human arms.
On its surface, the tree patterns are eerie, forming painful human faces.
Xu Tao said: "The Pain Wood is very similar to other trees on the battlefield, it is all pitch black and tall. ”
"But if you look a little closer, you can see that the body of this tree is not straight enough, and it has a slightly distorted appearance."
"And its branches, and its veins, are not found in other trees."
"The tree preys on seriously injured humans, animals, and even giant beasts."
"It pierces its prey with a branch and then releases a special sap that irritates the prey and causes them to die in excruciating pain."
"And the painful emotions of the prey, as well as the hormones secreted when they are tormented by pain, are the 'food' of the pain wood."
"So when we split the trunk of the Pain Wood, we tend to harvest a lot of rotting corpses, and you find that the brains of those corpses are gone."
"Yes, the hormone-producing brain is the best food for Pain Wood."
"Pain Wood disguises itself in normal times, and they only show human face tree patterns when they are 'hunting', so it is difficult to detect in normal times."
"But we can scan it to reveal its disguise."
"Painwood is afraid of flames and can be cleaned up with flames, but be careful, as some behemoths like to consume the sap secreted by Painwood, and the Painwood will emit a characteristic scream when it is damaged."
"Therefore, when the Pain Wood is attacked, it often attracts giant beasts."
"Unlike the 'Miasma', the Pain Wood also exists in the Safe Zone, so you should be extra careful not to attack the Pain Wood lightly when you are active."
Soon, Luo Yan had a record of the 'Pain Tree' in his notebook, and he also drew a sketch of the Pain Tree in his notebook, marked it, and recorded it in detail.
Bai Yan whispered beside him: "The ecology of the desperate battlefield is really twisted and weird, the ecology of the Weird Hair City is weird enough, but compared to the desperate battlefield, it is far behind." ”
Luo Yan nodded in agreement: "After all, it is an environment that has evolved from at least two Jedi borders, and it is normal for the ecology to be distorted and bad. ”
Looking at the big screen, Luo Yan was glad in his heart, fortunately, the 'Ignorance Space' in the Fenshui area could be closed that day, otherwise, it would be swallowed by the 'Ignorance Space', and he didn't know what kind of terrible ecology would evolve.
"There's another thing to watch out for in the safe zone."
On the podium, Xu Tao continued.
A mass of weeds, formed by shrubs and herbaceous plants, appeared on the big screen at this point, and among these weeds was a corpse.
It was a human, and its body was tightly entangled with weeds, and its whole body was almost entangled in plants, as if it had fallen into the prey of a spider's web.
"Strangling grass is also called killing grass."
Xu Tao pointed to the grass ball on the big screen and said: "This strangulation plant exists in large numbers in the desperate battlefield, and they will cause suffocation by entanglement of prey. ”
"Unlike the Pain Wood, this plant only targets humans, and so far, scholars don't know how it distinguishes humans from other creatures."
"The most defensible theory now is that the strangled grass can distinguish the pheromones naturally released by humans, and when they determine the target, they will quietly entangle the prey, and will pull the prey into the depths of the grass, if it is not dealt with in time, even the cultivators will be in danger."
"So every camp in the safe zone is grass-free."
"And the grass near the camp is cleared regularly every week so that the strangled plants don't get mixed in."
