"Look, there's a huge tree over there!" Qi Qing pointed to a strange place in the dense jungle.

The reason why it is peculiar is that the tree looks like a large banyan tree that has been propagated for dozens or hundreds of years, and there are so many hanging hairs on the branches that it is so difficult to distinguish the varieties of other plants covered by this tree.

The tree has many fibrous roots, and the overall size is very large, covering almost a kilometer, and the first impression of the body is abnormal.

When he got closer, Qi Qing said to Mo Xun, "Something is wrong with this tree, is our last marking signal here?" ”

"Yes." Mo Xun quickly checked the surrounding situation, and the drone added shooting confirmation according to the tracking signal, and the last positioning coordinate cast was here. Zhang Jiannan, Xue Yafang and Ma Lian passed through here, and they were also captured by the equipment arranged in advance.

Qi Qing looked at the time display of the synchronized data received by the device, and it was three hours ago.

However, when they found the filming equipment according to the location of the device, they found that the equipment had grown in the trunk of the big banyan tree and lost its ability to record.

No wonder the footage transmitted after that was pitch black, it turned out that the camera was blocked.

Qi Qing called up the synchronous high-altitude shooting footage, compared the ground vegetation in this area in a few hours, and found that this big banyan tree was not so huge before.

It must have been catalyzed by a stimulus or suddenly underwent some kind of mutation, and suddenly accelerated its growth, far exceeding the normal growth rate of plants.

This reminded Qi Qing and Mo Xun of exchanging abyss copies.

They are currently at the end of the Meteorite Catastrophe and will seamlessly transition to the Mutant Catastrophe. Copies of the surrounding environment can be generated at any time. Could this place be a copy of them being generated?

Mo Xun stood on a high place and pointed in one direction and said, "Zhang Jiannan and the two women are on a tree, with something like rattan wrapped around their necks, and they look unconscious. ”

Qi Qing released the [Reconnaissance Eye] and the drone, although they had lost one drone in the camp before, Qi Qing had brought several spare ones in the space, and now they are just using them.

It's a pity that the drone fell directly when it arrived at the place, and it seemed that there was some interference there, so that the mechanical parts of the drone stopped running directly.

[Reconnaissance Eye] can fly, but the information that comes back is the one that Qi Qing and Mo Xun can see with the naked eye.

Zhang Jiannan and Ma Lian are the two who were selected, and their physical fitness is a little stronger, although they are in a coma, they should breathe smoothly from the image, as if they are asleep. And Xue Yafang's condition is very bad, it can be seen that she has suffered a lot during this period of escape, her face is yellow and thin, her clothes are tattered, her whole body is bruised, and she is short of breath and looks like she is dying.

The three of them had arrived in the vicinity three hours earlier, and the original plan must have been to get out of the jungle and go to the beach to wait for DK's boat.

Our satellites have detected that the submarine has reached the nearby waters, and the three of them must have a way to contact DK. But now, are they caught by the plants here?

Qi Qing and Mo Xun used the help of [Reconnaissance Eye] to find the three backpacks they were carrying, and the backpacks were not on their bodies, but were stacked under the trees.

Perhaps the three of them were resting under the tree when they encountered a mutation of the tree, and the three of them became the "food" caught by the plant. The rattan that wraps around their necks is the limb that absorbs nutrients from the plant.

Mo Xun and Qi Qing stood at the border and observed for a while, basically determining that the range of the big banyan tree was stable for the time being, and it was no longer expanding, and they were outside the border. Mechanical and communication equipment that enters the perimeter will fail, unless it rises more than 100 meters into the air.

"Copies may have been formed here." Mo Xun walked around the area occupied by the mutated banyan tree a few times at an extremely fast speed and came to this conclusion.

"If Zhang Jiannan and them enter the copy, we should not be able to see their existence with the naked eye." Qi Qing groaned, "Could it be that there are not enough people who enter?" Once there are enough people, will the quest start? ”

"It's possible." Mo Xun said, "Their luggage is in that area, but our equipment can't get in, so we can only rely on manpower to take things out." You wait outside, I'll go in and get something out, and sample the mutated plant by the way. ”

Qi Qing took out the safety rope and connected it to the big tree outside the circle and herself, and gave the other end to Mo Xun.

Both of them also double-checked the airtightness of their protective suits to prevent any dangerous scents in the area that could cause them to stupe.

Mo Xun entered the area and went straight to the three bags piled up at the base of the big tree. Qi Qing filmed the whole process outside the circle, and used the equipment to synchronously transmit the image data to the superiors.

Mo Xun used the [Concussive Particle Knife] to cut through the roots as thick as pythons, sampled and sealed them, and passed the three packages out with ropes. Qi Qing put all three packages into the space, and the packages contained only a level 5 special item for electric energy conversion and a non-metallic sealed jar, which they may have found from the underground of the DK camp. Could it be the key sample that can restrain the black fog?

Mo Xun jumped to a higher branch again, intending to draw blood from the unconscious Zhang Jiannan. There was testing equipment in Qi Qing's space, and they could conduct a preliminary examination through sampling to determine the cause of the three people's coma.

When Mo Xun cut those roots, the big tree seemed to have no feeling, but he didn't expect that when his needle drew blood from Zhang Jiannan's body, the whole tree suddenly "came to life", the branches swayed and twisted, and the leaves made a sound without wind.

Qi Qing said in the communicator: "There is a small aircraft moving at high speed nearby coming towards us, I suggest you withdraw from the border as soon as possible." ”

Mo Xun didn't dare to be careless, and immediately gave up sampling other people, and ran outside the circle with Zhang Jiannan's tube of blood. He also found that the mutated banyan tree was agitated, perhaps not caused by blood drawing.

Then the two of them watched as the small flying machine seemed to lose control and crashed straight into the range where the big banyan tree was.

Mo Xun said: "It seems to be some kind of jet flying equipment piloted by a single person, and the one who fell down was a living person." ”

Qi Qing could also see it, but the person was wearing a helmet and his whole body was wrapped in some kind of special protective clothing, and he couldn't tell whether the person was awake or not, and he looked at the burly figure, maybe it was a man.

I saw that the person discarded the flying equipment he was carrying, and the whole person quickly controlled the downward trend with the help of the forest deceleration, and the reaction speed and strong physical fitness showed that he should be a chosen one.

The big banyan tree began to grow wildly again, and in the blink of an eye, its roots expanded more than ten meters.

Qi Qing originally wanted to pull Mo Xun to evacuate in time, but the two of them heard a clear announcement in their minds at the same time: [The number of selected people in the dungeon area has reached 5, and the level has met the minimum entry standards, and the Lost Flight dungeon has officially opened. 】

The first double watch
