Chapter 302: Stealth Mushroom
"There is a psychedelic mushroom forest in front, and our local hunters basically dare not approach, at most they only dare to go around the periphery, pick up some low-level mutant bacteria and sell them back, as for the depths of the psychedelic mushroom forest, even the strange beasts in the rainforest dare not enter." Draco explained.
Su Ze looked ahead, and his eyes were filled with patches of colorful mushrooms of different sizes.
Most of them are colorful and have a variety of shapes, including umbrella-shaped, spherical, ear-shaped, arrow-shaped, coral-shaped, and flame-shaped......
The large ones are tens of meters high, like a big house propped up in the air.
The small ones are only as big as a fingernail, small but delicate.
Such a beautiful sight is like a fairy tale world.
But under this beauty lies a murderous motive, and the brighter the mushroom, the more dangerous it is, just like a woman.
Mutant bacteria are a very special kind of existence, they do not belong to alien beasts, nor do they belong to spirit plants.
The general impression is that they are more plant-oriented, have roots, absorb nutrients, and many fungi grow in the soil.
In fact, in evolutionary relations, they are more animal-oriented.
However, in terms of evolution, the role of mutant bacteria is still more biased towards spiritual plants, and their extracts cannot be absorbed by humans, but many mutant bacteria can be used in medicine, and some are precious natural medicines.
Brother Ya grew up in Vita since he was a child, and he also knows a lot about the psychedelic bacteria forest, and said to Su Ze: "Boss, there is at least more than one fourth-order mutant bacteria in this psychedelic forest, and there are all fifth-order mutant bacteria, so let's be careful." ”
Su Ze nodded, not taking it lightly.
The mutant bacteria have strange attack methods, which are difficult to prevent, have toxin attacks, hallucinogenic psychic attacks, and can also spray spores to attack.
"You take us first to the place where you found the body." Suzer commanded Draco.
He planned to let Draco show the way, and then ask Tooth to send Draco back first.
It's a bit of a hassle to carry such a drag oil bottle.
Draco took the lead, and Suze and the others followed, walking into the mushroom forest.
Brother Ya said: "Boss, hold your breath so as not to inhale the spores." ”
Draco glanced at Brother Ya in surprise, he didn't expect this person to know so much about psychedelic bacteria and look very experienced.
Although the psychedelic forest is dangerous, it is only a periphery, and of course it does not pose any threat to the two overlords of Su Ze and Ya Ge.
During this period, some mutant bacteria used some methods such as poisoning and hallucination, but they were completely ignored by Su Ze and Ya Ge, and the mutant bacteria rarely used physical attack methods.
As for Draco, he was not affected by the two of them, and he was able to find the place where he found the body back then.
"This is it!" Draco said, pointing to an open space.
This place is barely the periphery of the psychedelic forest, and most of the surrounding areas are first- and second-order mutant bacteria.
Su Ze looked around, this place looked no different from other places, more than ten years have passed, and there is no trace on the ground for a long time.
As for the corpse, it was long gone.
"Do you have any other information about the body at that time? For example, approximate age, strength, gender, ......," Su Ze asked.
Draco thought for a moment and replied, "Looking at the size of the skeleton, there is a high probability that it is male, the corpse is highly decomposed, I am not sure of the age, and the strength is unknown, but judging from the level of those evolution items in his storage props, he is at least a butterfly stage powerhouse."
"By the way, he's black."
"Negro, are you from Yandi Continent again?" Su Ze was thoughtful.
Next, he asked for details of Draco's deal, time, location, and contact information, etc., and Draco answered them all.
Seeing that he couldn't ask anything more, Su Ze took out the "Charming Fox Tail" and gently fanned it at Draco for hypnosis.
The main effect of "Enchanting Foxtail" is to exert a mental influence on the target, which can completely achieve the effect of hypnosis, but this hypnotic effect may not be effective permanently, but for a non-spiritual cocoon stage evolver like Draco, the effect can last for at least a few months.
A few months was completely enough, and Su Ze didn't plan to hold Draco's pawn for a long time, he just wanted to try to use him to catch some bugs of filthy soil tissues.
Under the hypnotic effect, Draco temporarily forgot everything that had just happened, and his memory was still stuck in the moment when he turned on the TV and watched the cartoon.
Draco fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, he found himself in the comfort of his villa's large bed.
Brother Ya was in charge of sending Draco back, while Suze waited for Brother Ya to return.
He was not idle, using his perceptual tentacles to explore the surroundings, gradually enveloping the entire psychedelic forest.
The area of the psychedelic fungus forest is not small, but Su Ze's perceptual tentacles can still be easily covered, according to what Brother Ya said, there are at most fifth-order mutant bacteria in this fungus forest, and he is not worried about his perceptual tentacles being discovered.
The psychedelic fungus forest, which is sensed by the tentacles, is very different from what is observed with the naked eye, and the air in the depths of the fungus forest is full of various spores.
Even where he was, a clump of spores approached him from time to time, but the slightest use of gravity prevented the spores from getting close.
There are almost no exotic beasts in the mushroom forest, not even ordinary animals, but there are many big trees, and these big trees are all spiritual plants.
But in the fungus forest, they are nothing more than a medium parasitized by various mutant bacteria.
In the depths of the fungus forest, there are several huge mutant bacteria, which are very difficult to mess with at first glance.
There are pure white spherical mushrooms with a diameter of tens of meters, a huge mushroom comparable to a courtyard, a building as big as a green hand, and a large chicken fir nearly 100 meters high......
To be on the safe side, Su Ze didn't provoke them, and the perceptual tentacles avoided them.
Su Ze carefully inspected every part of the mushroom forest, trying to find some clues, but after a general search, he found nothing.
He didn't rush into the fungus forest, and was ready to wait for Brother Ya to come back and explore.
In less than ten minutes, Yage went and returned.
Su Ze told Brother Ya about his speculation about the origin of "nothingness".
Brother Ya nodded again and again, agreeing with Su Ze's speculation, and he asked, "Big brother, what are your plans?" It had been more than ten years since Draco discovered the corpse, and now there were no clues in the fungal forest, right? ”
Fungi are decomposers in nature, and in this forest full of mutant bacteria, no matter what the clues, after so many years, there must be no trace.
Su Ze didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Brother Ya, do you have any sense that your 'Nothingness' skill has some abilities that you can't sense yourself, or hidden effects?" ”
"Of course there is, it's strange that I can't absorb attack skills." Brother Ya scratched his head and said, "Obviously, the effect of the 'Nothingness' skill did not insulate me from the attack skill or be friendly with the life-saving skill, but I feel that this is not my innate physique, but the side effect of my absorption of the 'Nothingness' skill." ”
"Anything else?" Su Ze asked.
Brother Ya thought about it seriously and said: "Also, the same life-saving and escape skills, it seems that I use them better than others, just take the earth escape skills as an example, I escape faster than others, and I am deeper than others, even the flying skills, I fly faster than others." ”
Su Ze said: "My 'Evolutionary Grace' skill, which was also like this before it was completed, has many abilities other than the effect of the skill, I don't know where it came from, and when I absorbed the complete golden bloodline crystal, I realized that these abilities did not come from the 'Evolutionary Grace' skill, but from that bloodline crystal." ”
Brother Ya's face changed slightly, and he said, "Boss, you mean that my 'Nothingness' skill is as incomplete as it gets?" ”
Su Ze nodded: "To be precise, you may not have absorbed the complete bloodline crystals.
"The bloodline crystals you absorb should be the same as my golden bloodline crystals, but you may have absorbed more than mine, so even if you become a saint-level overlord, your skills have not lagged behind.
"There's another reason why I'm guessing, I don't know if you've noticed, Draco said that when he found the decomposing corpse, it was mutilated, only half of it!"
Brother Ya immediately understood what Su Ze meant.
If the corpse was split into two pieces before the blood crystals were precipitated, then the blood crystals from the corpse should also be divided into two parts and scattered in two places.
And the blood crystals he absorbed through the dung-eater extract may only be a part of it.
Brother Ya thought about it seriously, then nodded and said, "Boss, when you say this, I do have a feeling sometimes that my 'Nothingness' skill seems to have some effects that have not been explored.
"After I completed the fourth evolution, I have been looking for materials to upgrade other skills, but the 'Nothingness' skill does not need to be upgraded, it is beyond the scope of the fourth-order or even fifth-order skills, but I can feel that after I become a saint-level, this skill should have the effect of 'bringing people together to virtualize', but I have failed several attempts."
Su Ze bowed slightly, and continued: "If my guess is true, then I can speculate on the location of the other part of the blood crystal, one is that it was found and taken away by that short black man a long time ago, the second is that it was left in the psychedelic mushroom forest back then, and was devoured and absorbed by a foreign beast, and the third is that it is still buried somewhere in the psychedelic mushroom forest. ”
When it comes to his most important skill, Brother Ya also attaches importance to it, and follows Su Ze to look for clues in the surroundings.
He and Su Ze divided their actions, Su Ze was responsible for searching the surface and shallow underground with his sensory tentacles, and Yage was responsible for searching the deep underground.
But the two searched the entire psychedelic forest and found nothing.
Except for the big guys in the most core area, they didn't come close to search.
Brother Ya smiled bitterly: "It seems that he is no longer here, it is likely to be devoured by a strange beast, or found and taken away by the black filthy man." ”
Su Ze pointed in the direction of the core area and said, "Those big guys haven't searched around yet." ”
Brother Ya shook his head and said: "The core area is too dangerous, forget it, when I was just underground, I thought about going to the core area to explore the underground, but the underground soil is full of dense mycelium, which is more dangerous than the ground."
"Those big guys, at least they are all fourth-order mutant bacteria, and even if there are fifth-order ones, let's explore them in the future when we are stronger."
Su Ze said: "Since the underground is more dangerous, let's enter from the front of the ground, you give me a hexagram first to see if there is any danger." ”
When Brother Ya heard this, he no longer insisted, and decided to decide to progress into the core area according to the results of fortune telling.
As the master of the "danger warning" skill, he does not need to tell his fortune, and every time danger comes, he will have a sense.
Now he didn't feel the danger, at least it proved that the few huge mutant bacteria in the core area could not threaten his life.
The main thing is to test it and see if Su Ze will be in danger.
A faint red light lit up from Su Ze's eyebrows......
This red light is very weak, which means that there is danger, but the danger is not great, and it can be completely resolved and overcome.
"Forget it." Brother Ya shook his head.
He didn't want Su Ze to risk his life for his sake.
"What are you afraid of this danger, if you don't take risks, you won't gain anything, try it first." Su Ze said, "And with you to protect me, unless I am a legendary powerhouse, who can kill me?" Even if I'm really unlucky to hang up, there are still flesh statues that can be resurrected. ”
Seeing Su Ze say this, Brother Ya no longer persuaded him, and the two made a little preparation and headed towards the core of the psychedelic forest.
Along the way, mutant bacteria continued to attack the two of them, and Su Ze directly exploded with momentum, and the life oppression belonging to the saint-level overlord made these mutant bacteria who had not reached the saint-level tremble and curled up into a ball.
There were also those who were not afraid of death and dared to attack them, so he went directly to "pick mushrooms", turned into a young man picking mushrooms, and pulled out five or six mutant fungi in a row, which suddenly made the entire mushroom forest quiet.
These mutant bacteria also have a certain amount of intelligence, and when they realize that the enemy is strong, they will not take the initiative to seek death.
Finally, the two went all the way outside the core area.
Looking at the giant mutant bacteria in front of him, Su Ze did not attack rashly.
He didn't come to pick mushrooms, he just came to help Brother Ya find the remaining bloodline crystals, but if these mushrooms stopped him, he would have to destroy the mushrooms with his hands.
Fourth-order mutant bacteria, Su Ze is actually not afraid, he is not sure if there are fifth-order mutant bacteria among these giant mutant bacteria.
Su Ze and the others made a lot of noise along the way, and these giant mutant bacteria must have known about the existence of the two of them for a long time, but at this time they were all quiet and did not take the initiative to make a move against Su Ze and Brother Ya.
Su Ze did not step into the core area, but covered the core area with perceptual tentacles, and searched a little bit, which was actually a kind of temptation.
Not only did he have to explore the surface, but he also had to use his perceptual tentacles to explore the underground, and even infiltrate these mutated bacteria to explore.
Such a large mutant fungus, each flower is equivalent to a small house in the body, which can store a lot of things, maybe the half of the blood crystals that Brother Ya needs are hidden in the folds of the umbrella cover of a certain mutant bacteria.
Normally, these mutant bacteria would not be able to perceive Su Ze's perceptual tentacles, but if they invade the other party's body, they will inevitably be detected.
But to Su Ze's surprise, his perceptual tentacles were actually blocked!
Exploring underground, blocked by invisible energy, penetrating into the mutant bacterium, and also blocked.
This is not common.
There weren't many things that could block his perceptual tentacles, and after the "True Eye" skill was upgraded, only the barrier held up by the new king's sponge resisted his perceptual tentacles.
Could it be that there are sixth-order or even god-level mutant bacteria in this?
Su Ze felt that it should be unlikely.
He swelled and split into a liquid doppelganger, flowing towards the core.
The doppelganger maintained its liquid form, turning into a puddle of water and spreading on the ground, spreading more and more widely.
Since the perceptual tentacles could not be explored, he used the simplest method to perceive and explore by his own body.
At this moment, those giant mutant bacteria finally couldn't hold back and began to attack.
Beneath the ground, a mycelium drilled out and plunged into the liquid body, extracting all the energy in the body.
Su Ze also controlled the liquid clone to burst out directly, split into three, and quickly dispersed.
The three liquid clones swelled again, and at the same time used the "Angry Waves", and the rolling air waves raged, enveloping several mutant bacteria in the core area.
These mutant bacteria have green evolutionary lights in their bodies, and they use their own means to defend themselves against the attack of the "angry waves".
And at the same time, he also launched a counterattack against Su Ze's liquid clone.
Countless mycelium wrapped around the three liquid clones, and some mutant bacteria spit out a series of spores that took root on the liquid clones, sucking them all up in the blink of an eye.
The loss of the liquid clone also affected Su Ze, but he was relieved at this time, these giant mutant bacteria that he had tested turned out were only fourth-order.
Fourth-order, he can hang the hammer.
However, there were still two or three giant mutant bacteria that had not been attacked by his liquid clone just now, so their strength was uncertain.
Will there be a fifth-order existence in those two or three giant mutant bacteria?
Su Ze suddenly looked at a corner location, where there was a small mushroom that looked ordinary.
It is only the size of a fist, and its color is not bright, and it looks almost the same as the mushroom that people usually eat.
But Su Ze clearly remembered that there were no mushrooms in that location originally!
After a moment's thought, he realized that it was an invisible mushroom.
Because the mutant bacteria in the core area could block Su Ze's exploration of the perceptual tentacles, Su Ze hadn't noticed this small mushroom before.
After the upgrade of "Ten Thousand Angry Waves", it has the effect of making the stealth unit visible, which directly makes this invisible mushroom show its original form.
At this moment, the little mushroom disappeared again and regained its stealth state.
However, Su Ze's perceptual tentacles clearly sensed that the invisible mushroom rose from the ground, like a sharp sword stabbing towards Su Ze.
It's still a moving Assassin mushroom!
A crystal sword appeared in Su Ze's hand, and a sword slashed towards the stealth mushroom.
When there was a sound, Su Zehu's mouth was numb, but he didn't expect that this little mushroom was not small, and it was hard enough, and the crystal sword failed to hurt it.
The stealth mushroom was extremely fast, like a well-trained assassin, and stabbed Su Ze again at a tricky angle.
Su Ze turned on the "Ant Power" and used the crystal sword to use the "Needle Strike" to stab at the stealth mushroom.
But at this moment, the stealth mushroom suddenly disappeared in Su Ze's perception!
It seemed to vanish into thin air, unable to catch its presence even by its perceptual tentacles.
Su Ze's heart froze, and his whole body immediately liquefied, and at the same time, he felt a small mushroom quickly condense above his head and stab towards the back of his head.
The stealth mushroom pierced into Su Ze's head, but now Su Ze was already in liquid form, and in this state, he had strong resistance to physical attacks.
The stealth mushroom passed through Su Ze's body, and the powerful impact and friction caused Su Ze's body to be partially vaporized, but at best, it was a minor injury, and it did not affect him.
One hit missed, thousands of miles away, and the stealth mushroom flew towards the core like a bolt of lightning.
"Brother Ya, hold it!" Su Ze hurriedly shouted, and at the same time released an electric current to track the stealth mushroom, and also pointed the way for Brother Ya.
The hand that had just been stealth to the mushroom suddenly reminded Su Ze of Brother Ya's "nothingness" skill.
There is only the "Nothingness" skill, which can disappear in front of him, so that his perceptual tentacles cannot be captured.
This convinced Su Ze that the remaining bloodline crystals were likely to be in this stealth mushroom!
However, the "Nothingness" skill also has a flaw, that is, the CD is long, and after using it, it cannot be used again for a short time.
Therefore, they must take advantage of the cooldown of this skill to take down the Stealth Mushroom.
