Volume 4: Evolution Chapter 42 The real boss of Tianluo City
With the infusion of the potion, the huge heart flattened down at a speed visible to the naked eye, from the previous two seconds and three beats to three seconds before it beats.
"It seems to have worked!" Company Commander Wang said in surprise.
"Well, it's good that it works, let's go, let's go saw open its head and do brain removal surgery on it."
"Commander, don't you want to give it another shot?" Company Commander Wang hesitated.
"No, it's too much, you can send two soldiers to guard here, and if the effect of the medicine is over, we haven't finished our work, so we can make up for another injection in time."
"Okay, Gao Tong, Guan Hai, you two are here to guard, and if you have any questions, contact me through the walkie-talkie in time."
"Yes, company commander." The two warriors who crouched down to borrow his shoulders should have said in unison.
Meng Qingxiao left the snake beads and the remaining two anesthetics for the two of them, and then left with the other four.
The work of sawing the roots of the tree had to be done on the ground, and the roots below were so many and thick that it was difficult for them to let go, and because of this large hole, it became a climbing operation, which was even more difficult to handle.
There was no work to be done below, so Company Commander Wang transferred all his soldiers to the ground and walked majestically in the direction of the mutated black locust with Meng Qingxiao.
They soon came within range of the mutant black locust, but because of the effect of the anesthetic, the thick roots were now lying on the ground and would not move.
When they finally saw the mutated black locust, everyone stopped for a moment.
Before, Meng Qingxiao asked Zhang Ying if the tree had eyes, and Zhang Ying said no, but now Meng Qingxiao began to be a little suspicious, because he saw that on the trunk of this tree, there was a clear human face with facial features, but the eyes were closed.
This tree is actually not tall, not as tall as an aspen tree that has grown normally for 10 years, and it is not as thick as Meng Qingxiao imagined before, it is only as thick as three or four adults hugging each other, and its crown is full of white locust flowers, and the fragrance is fragrant.
"If it's not so crazy, this is really a sacred tree." Meng Qingxiao sighed in his heart, "You grow up, why bother to make a forest in the city, look at the buildings around here, all of them have been crushed by you." ”
Meng Qingxiao said lightly: "Let's start acting." ”
"Okay!" Wang Lian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brothers, bright guys!" ”
For this operation, they prepared a dozen chainsaws, which now finally came in handy.
There are a lot of people, and there are a lot of chainsaws, but the space is limited, and they can only send two people to the field at a time.
At first, it was no different from a normal sawn piece of wood, but when the chainsaw went about 10 centimeters deeper, suddenly a large amount of blood was thrown out by the chainsaw, drenching two fighters all over their bodies.
While the two men were startled, so were the others, because when the blood splattered, the thick roots of the trees that had been lying on the ground and sleeping also flew up, whipping away several warriors sitting nearby.
Fortunately, these tree roots were only a sudden stress reaction, they did not continue to fly, and Company Commander Wang confirmed the situation with Gao Tong and Guan Hai, who were still underground, and they also said that the beating speed of the heart had not changed.
The chainsaw continued to work, and a large amount of blood flowed out of the tree, accumulating on the ground and soon forming a small puddle of blood.
In this situation, Rao is warrior's heart is hard, and he can't help but beat drums in his heart, and some of his limbs even began to weaken, I don't know why, they seem to hear the moaning of this big tree.
The roots of the trees on the ground began to twitch constantly, and the amplitude was still small at first, and after ten minutes, it began to writhe sharply like a long snake gathered together, but at this time, the black locust can only be described as a drunk, and there is no consciousness to attack people.
At this time, Guan Hai underground reported that the beating speed of the big heart had become faster.
Company Commander Wang glanced at Meng Qingxiao, Meng Qingxiao nodded, Company Commander Wang understood, and immediately asked the two to hurry up and inject the second injection.
With the injection of the second needle, the roots of the tree on the ground were quiet again.
Meng Qingxiao has been watching the time, it's only 18 minutes, they haven't even finished 1/3, but the effect of the first shot has passed, and at this rate, they will definitely not be able to complete their work before the three shots are exhausted.
Company Commander Wang also found out about this situation, and he asked with a worried face: "Commander, it seems that you don't have so much time, what should I do?" Why don't you contact someone in China to send us a potion. ”
"It's too late to send it now, let's talk about it when all three stitches are used up, how much can be sawed."
"That's it."
Soon, the effect of the second shot also passed, and this time it was shorter, only 15 minutes, which made Meng Qingxiao's frowning brows even tighter.
The third shot was successful, and they were once again given a short working time, and the warriors did not have to work against the clock, hoping only to sawn as many trunks as possible before the effect of the medicine was over.
Then the effect of the third shot was even shorter, and after only 10 minutes, the roots of the tree on the ground had begun to dance slowly.
"What happens if you cut off all these roots?" Meng Qingxiao asked Company Commander Wang.
Company Commander Wang smiled bitterly: "We tried it before, you look at the potholes on the ground, this is all we used grenades to blast out, and we also used air cannons to completely shatter them, it is useless, it can grow more roots again in the blink of an eye." ”
"Air cannons?" Meng Qingxiao's eyes suddenly lit up, he walked quickly to the bottom of the big tree, and shouted to the soldier who was sawing wood on the right: "Get out of the way." ”
The fighter hurriedly retreated with a chainsaw.
Meng Qingxiao aimed his air cannon under the gap they sawed, and immediately began to compress the air, so frightened that the soldier on the left also hurriedly ducked back.
Soon, the air cannon began to wield power, and a large number of debris flew wildly with a bang, and he really blasted open a gap the size of a sea bowl.
Meng Qingxiao's hands did not stop, and at the same time shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Come over and help me." ”
When the little cat heard this, he immediately came to Meng Qingxiao's side and squatted down to help shoot.
They adjusted their angles slightly, and four people stood on each side and shot at one place at the same time, blood and wood chips splashing in front of them, many times faster than they had used before.
"Well, if only I had thought of this sooner." Company Commander Wang squatted at the bottom of the left like a kitten, staring at the roots of the tree that were already flying faster and faster not far in front of him.
"Company commander, this heart is beating faster and faster, what should we do?" Gao Tong, the driver underground, shouted nervously over the intercom.
"Get out of the ground, it's not safe there." Meng Qingxiao was the first to speak.
"Commander, isn't this snake bead able to suppress the mutant tree, we should be safe, or we can break this heart, can we help you?"
"No, it's only going to anger it, you guys come out."
"Commander!" Company Commander Wang also used the walkie-talkie and said, "Look at those tree roots, they have regained consciousness, maybe breaking the heart can make it fall into a coma for a short time, this may be our last resort, let the two of them do it." ”
"What if it doesn't work?" Meng Qingxiao asked rhetorically, "You will put them in danger by doing this." ”
"We're willing to take the risk." Guan Hai hurriedly said.
"yes, I'd like to try it too." Gao Tong also shouted on the intercom.
"Well, well, you must be careful." Meng Qingxiao no longer insisted.
"Don't worry, Commander, I think the effect of this snake bead is very good, we must be fine." Gao Tong said confidently, he had already raised the grenade in his hand at this time, ready to stuff it into the shell of the sphere.
On the ground, except for Meng Qingxiao and the others, who were still insisting on destroying the tree trunks, the other fighters began to use chainsaws to deal with the fluttering tree roots, and there was not much danger in a short period of time.
But the tree was indeed getting more and more awake, and its thick body was trembling faster and faster, and it wasn't caused by the air cannon.
Boom –
A dull explosion came from the ground, and with the sound of this explosion, the body of the mutant black locust also shook violently, and then the whole body really stood still.
"It's really dizzy! Uh-" Guan Hai's surprised voice came from the headphones, and then suddenly stopped.
The stillness just now was probably just a brief spasm, and in just three seconds, the big tree was completely awake, and the severe pain made it completely violent, and the ground within a radius of more than ten kilometers began to tremble, and then swish, swish, swish......
Countless thick tree roots emerged from the ground, attacking all the obstacles that dared to block it with a sweeping momentum, including an entire forest of its own making, which was also completely toppled by it, and the speed was as if a typhoon of level 17 or higher was passing through, and all the obstacles in front of it, including the high-rise buildings in the southwest of Tianluo City, were also swept away by it and collapsed.
Even Zhang Ying's large amount of equipment parked in the ground mall was not spared, and at such a distance, there were still huge roots of black locust underground.
Zhang Ying drove the car and barely escaped, but all her equipment had been pressed under the ruins, and she finally understood why the dragon and the mutant ants didn't dare to approach here, the biggest boss in Tianluo City was actually this mutant black locust.
Company Commander Wang's men suffered heavy casualties, and only the five soldiers who shot the main trunk with him survived, and they were closest to the tree, which became the safest place, which echoed the phrase "dark under the lamp", the most dangerous place, and often the safest place.
However, they were not completely safe, because there were also many thick tree roots wriggling under their feet, and the feet of Lian Commander Wang and the little cat at the bottom were all entangled.
Meng Qingxiao said in a deep voice: "At this time, we can't escape at all, the only way we can save ourselves is to continue shooting, this is the only way to survive in death." ”
