Chapter 334: Flowers of the Century

[The Fifth Detachment of the Survey Corps traveled 270 kilometers in the jungle today, and observation equipment has been arranged along the way. According to the scheduled plan, the third detachment, which is advancing in other directions, will be contacted tomorrow. 】

[According to Detachment 2's observations, the target remains stationary and disguised.] After a round with the third detachment, the four mixed detachments will begin a raid. 】

[Nothing happened today, and the newcomers in the team are still calm. The race known as the Transformers has an important value in mass marching, but is still under observation. 】

Jonathan finished writing today's report, put it into a closed cylinder, took out his staff and tapped it, and the cylinder distorted and disappeared in an instant.

As the investigator who is 'best at escaping', Jonathan is also proficient in the production of portkeys, and sometimes even the head of the group, Alvin, does not know how many life-saving methods Jonathan has.

After the Transformers world ended its surveillance of Sam, the Survey Corps recruited men on Rorschach's orders to form a large-scale extramural investigation.

Beyond the Wall of Flesh are special sacred and corrupt terrains, as well as antagonistic jungles.

In Terraria, the Jungle is mostly composed of grass, vines, mud, jungle trees, bamboo, and pools of water, and the jungle will continue to spread on the dirt.

The confrontation between sacred, corrupted, and jungle landscapes makes the world beyond the flesh and blood full of variables.

No one can guess how the terrain, which has been explored today, will change next month.

The constant change of intelligence makes it difficult for extramural investigations to form large-scale operations, and can only be used on a small scale to repeatedly explore the ecology around the Wall of Flesh.

Before the Wall of Flesh was destroyed, the jungle was normal, at least in the original world, everyone had explored the mysteries of the jungle.

But behind the Wall of Flesh, the Jungle of Change has become a forbidden place for life.

From time to time, man-eaters disguised as vines poked out from all directions, just to bite a bite of flesh.

Slimes resemble mud and will be corroded by a layer of armor if anyone accidentally steps into it.

Not to mention the fact that the mimic Jungle Spider will inject venom into any prey that falls into the web, and the giant fortress-like tortoise will struggle to penetrate its hard shell even with tandem armor-piercing bullets.

There are even fleas with large blue shells, and terrifying insects that are a human height will appear on any creature when they are not aware of it, jumping high and trying to land on them, sucking up a person's blood in a matter of seconds.

What's even more uncomfortable is that this creature is a swarm creature, and once it appears, it means dealing with an entire group.

The strangeness and danger of the jungle ecology make the survey corps troubled not by the investigation mission, but by how to move forward.

Therefore, in order to reach the target position, the Survey Corps applied for the cooperation of Task Force 141, dropped explosives and incendiary bombs with mobile armor, and led the large force all the way forward after the road was clear.

In other words, a speed of 270 kilometers a day is to follow the footsteps of a nuclear explosion.

But even this is no match for the terrifying resilience of the jungle ecology.

In the days following a nuclear explosion, the jungle can repopulate the scorched earth with dangerous flora and fauna.

After Jonathan sent back the daily report, he kept comparing the lines of action of the other three teams, and reviewed today's actions in his mind.

Until a crackling and burning sound made Jonathan re-notice the current scene.

The camp was built almost entirely on steel, with heavy steel plates placed on the original dirt of the jungle, and you could feel the heat of the burning earth under your feet.

This is to block the man-eaters that can emerge from the dirt, and to build a safe place to live.

The burning sound wasn't a campfire, it was a flamethrower processing vines from a Transformer.

The Transformer, named Inspector, raised his hand and showed every part of his body, allowing the flamethrower to remove the vines from his body.

The detective twisted his neck and said, "That's comfortable, those troublesome wasps make me feel what poisoning is again......"

Leaning his head close to the flamethrower, leaning on the last shimmer of flame, Logan lit the cigar in his mouth and asked, "Robots can be poisoned too?" ”

The detective twisted his body, checked for any uncleared vines on his body, and said, "How not?" Viruses are also poisonous! ”

No one knows if a robot virus can be compared to biopoisoning, but the dangerous creatures of the jungle can give them the same feeling.

Moss wasps in the Jungle can now shoot stingers at any mob, poisoning flesh creatures if they hit them. If it attacks a mechanical life, vines and moss will grow on its body, and it will corrode the body.

The flora of the jungle has merged with the creatures it gave birth to, repelling alien life.

With Logan's cigar smoking, the detective's addiction to cigarettes also came up, and he took out an e-cigarette that was more than a meter old and put it in his mouth.

Humans smoke cigars, robots smoke e-cigarettes, and it all looks harmonious.

However, Logan looked at the electronic cigar that only smoked and did not burn, held up the cigar he was holding, and asked, "Have you smoked this?" ”

"I'm a robot! I made this thing myself, and it burned diesel, so do you want to taste what it tastes like? ”

The Inspector handed Rogan his e-cigar in front of him, as if to recommend his unique flavor to Rogan.

The smell of diesel made Logan take a deep breath and let his nasal cavity fill his nasal cavity with the sweet cigar smell to hide the outside smell.

Just as Logan was thinking about how to refuse, he saw Jonathan, who was patrolling the camp, and waved at Jonathan and shouted, "Jonathan, come here!" ”

Thinking that Logan had found some loopholes, Jonathan drew his wand and rushed over.

The magician was able to quickly patch the holes in the camp with a spell, and it was only when the 'fix as before' spell was ready to be cast that Logan said what he wanted.

Pulling out a new cigar and handing it to Jonathan, Logan said, "Enlarge this cigar and give the inspector a taste of human taste......

"That's what you're for?"

"Or else?"

Jonathan reluctantly took the cigar, placed it on the steel floor, and pressed his wand against the cigar and chanted the incantation, 'Grow bigger'. In an instant, it expanded 10 million times and became a cigar for the detective.

Then he aimed his wand at the cigar head, which Jonathan cut off with a cutting charm, and then lit it with a blazing flame.

After completing this step, the inspector picked up the cigar and took a deep puff, and the smoke billowed out like a steam locomotive.

Logan looked at Jonathan, who was about to leave after completing the spell, chased after him and asked, "Is the situation tricky?" ”

It is a well-established fact that Jonathan is a prodigal son, but when Jonathan is serious, it means that the situation has reached an irreparable deterioration.

Sighing, Jonathan replied in a tired tone: "The second detachment is almost overwhelmed, and the underground environment is changing almost all the time. When they meet up with the rest of the detachment tomorrow, the crusade will begin immediately. ”

The leader of the second detachment is Levi Ackerman, the most capable guy in the entire Survey Corps. If he can't hold on, this crusade is doomed to fail.

Logan only reacted at this time, and it seemed that the nuclear explosion that was singing all the way was just a helpless attempt to compete for time.

"What is the enemy?"

"A flower."

"A flower?"

"Yes, a flower."

Except for the head of the investigation corps, Alwin, who was in the center, the rest of the investigators led a team, and Task Force 141 cooperated throughout the whole process, recruiting tens of thousands of people to investigate and raid the operation, just to deal with a flower.

Known as the 'Plantera', this flower is a monstrous flower that grows deep underneath the jungle.

Levi, who was the first to enter, settled down on the spot after confirming the location of Plantera, waiting for his comrades to come to their senses.

The environment of the jungle caused the early operation to suffer a lot before it locked on to Plantera's location.

The flower was now just a bud, a man-tall bud with pink petals, sunflower-like growths swaying around the bud, and the tender green receptacles and vines scattered all over the body supported the entire body.

When Jonathan and Hanji's third team converged, they saw Plantera, guarded by Levi of the second squad.

Stand shields have been erected around Plantera, defending against any accidents that might wake her up.

Like surface mineral mining, the center of the spiraling pit is the bud of Plantera. Various Transformers-turned construction vehicles dug a sinkhole here.

The maniac combination of King Kong Hercules is the center of the place, and the combination of the five Transformers as construction vehicles makes the best shredder to use.

Lying on the ground, Hercules constantly absorbs the dirt from the ground, destroys it with the shredders and combustion furnaces that feed it into its body, and then sprays it behind him and is shipped by other Transformers.

On each layer of the path that circles the pit, a flame that never goes out is lit with slime gel.

Levi, who was standing on Hercules' head and supervising the entire construction process, immediately appeared by their side after seeing the arrival of Jonathan and Hanji's team.

Levi looked at the two teams and asked, "What about Sam?" ”

However, Han Ji and Jonathan shook their heads and said that they didn't know, and seeing this, Levi no longer asked, but said, "Let's directly launch a crusade against Plantera." ”

Jonathan asked suspiciously, "Don't you wait for Sam?" ”

Sam Fisher is also a member of the Survey Corps, and he was supposed to join the group at this moment, but he didn't know what happened along the way.

Now Levi does not care about his comrades, but asks for a crusade, which is unreasonable.

However, Levi pointed to the slime gel flames and said, "See these slime flames?" When I first arrived, there was a fire with a radius of five kilometers, and now there is only so much left. ”

"The jungle is resisting, and I don't even dare to think about what it will be like if it drags on any longer."
