Chapter 16 All things have weaknesses
Although the monster poplars have intelligence, they don't have brains after all, and their awakened wisdom is very limited.
Its simple wisdom makes it unable to restrain its surging greed, leading it to want to capture everyone and suck the blood of all of them, especially the girl who found it.
It had a hunch that if it sucked her blood, it could become the strongest in this poplar forest.
Now, even if it is a tree, the strong are king, and the poplar tree not far away occupies a large territory and can absorb more nutrients. And it can only retreat to this small place, next to many unmutated poplars to snatch food from the soil.
This is a good opportunity for it to rise!
The poplar tree waved its branches excitedly, as if it had foreseen the day when it would reign supreme in this poplar forest.
When it saw that they were separated and fled, it divided the branches into three large groups and pursued them in the three directions in which they had dispersed.
Su Qiqi snorted and ran hard towards the front, but heard hurried footsteps from behind.
Su Qiqi shook her head helplessly, she didn't need to look back to know that the people in the team didn't listen to her advice, scattered in their own directions and ran away.
Two of them ran in her direction, after all, when people encounter danger, they will subconsciously look for the same kind, so Su Qiqi is not surprised.
The branches stretching out in the direction of Su Qiqi seemed to be extraordinarily thick, and a few branches that were a little closer quickly pulled towards Su Qiqi, ignoring the two ordinary people who followed Su Qiqi closely.
When the two people in the back saw the branch dangling past them, they were startled, but they saw that the branch ignored them, as if they didn't exist, and they were surprised and surprised.
"Su Qiqi run, that monster seems to be targeting you!" A kind reminder from one of them.
Su Qiqi ran forward, looked back, and saw that the branches were only one meter away from her, and the next second she was about to curl the treetops to tie Su Qiqi.
She took a step forward with her right foot, leaned over, rolled around the ground, and quickly got up, letting the treetops roll into the air.
The two ordinary people in the back opened their mouths in surprise when they saw that Su Qiqi's body was flexible enough to dodge the monster's attack.
Su Qiqi ran forward while observing the movement of the tree trunk behind him, and within a minute, Su Qiqi found that the branches seemed to attack less frequently, and the leaves that had been shaking at high frequency due to excitement had also become a little wilted.
Looks like it's almost out of range!
When Su Qiqi ran, he guessed that the main part of the tree could not move, so the place where it could attack must only be a circle around its main part.
And let them run separately, just to prevent being concentrated by the poplars, running separately is either to concentrate one person to attack, then the others can survive; Either it divides its power into countless shares and distributes it equally among all, and the attacks on everyone are reduced.
Su Qiqi ran forward for a while, and the branches behind him couldn't keep up, the original branches could have been vacated at the height of Su Qiqi's waist, but now the tail was almost hanging to the ankle position.
The poplar tree saw the sumptuous feast in front of him running farther and farther, and the two side dishes that he disdained gradually became farther and farther away from it, but he had reached the limit of what he could chase, and he was unwilling to pull the branches to the ground, raising a cloud of yellow dust.
Su Qiqi saw that the poplar tree had withdrawn the branches, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, raised his arm and wiped the beads of sweat that gradually slipped down from his sideburns, supported his hands on his knees, squatted slightly, and gasped for breath.
The two people in the back also ran over with a snort, and sat directly on the ground gasping for breath.
"You're pretty powerful, that poplar monster has been following you for so long, and it didn't hurt you." A young man with a flat head was surprised that this person was the kind person who reminded her that he was the target.
"Maybe you're lucky." Su Qiqi also felt that she was not so powerful, it may be that the luck value of the lucky dice made her be able to dodge the poplar's attack every time.
Su Qiqi felt that she was lucky now, she was able to dodge the attack every time, and said that she was unlucky, but the poplar forest monster made them encounter so many.
Maybe her luck value is relatively low now, so she can only be "lucky" to a limited extent.
"This can also be attributed to luck, I think it's obviously strong!" The flat-headed young man thought that Su Qiqi was modest.
Su Qiqi touched his nose and didn't explain anything, even if he didn't believe it, if there were no lucky dice, he probably wouldn't believe it when others told him.
"I think it's much more reliable to follow you than to follow Li Yi!" There were only two people running with her, one was the flat-headed boy, and the other was this middle-aged man in his forties with a thumbs up.
Su Qiqi smiled and shook his head, Li Yi's attack power was much stronger than her, although these two people were able to survive because of themselves, mainly because Yang Shu only chased her.
Su Qiqi guessed that she might be the reason for the ability, otherwise there would be no other explanation.
The three of them walked towards the edge of the forest, and after what had just happened, they were all very wary of the poplars around them, especially the middle-aged man, who was about to jump up in fright as soon as the wind blew the grass.
Su Qiqi was going to go out first, wait outside the forest for a day, see if the others had escaped the poplar attack, and then decide whether to look for them in this dangerous forest.
As a result, it backfired.
Just at the edge of the forest, three poplars are guarding their prey that wants to enter the woods or escape from them.
When Su Qiqi saw these three monsters, he began to have a headache.
And I wonder why so many poplars in this poplar forest have become monsters in the past few days? Before leaving, I heard from the people at the base that this poplar tree was very safe, and no one had ever seen a poplar monster.
The poplars in front of them were very satisfied with the prey that had just arrived, and the sound of rubbing leaves kept coming from them, as if they were communicating with each other how the three people should be divided more reasonably.
"Or do you want to run separately?" The middle-aged man asked Su Qiqi, and he subconsciously listened to Su Qiqi's opinion for the first time.
"It's useless, the three of us, they are three trees, and one of them can't run away separately." Su Qiqi said in a deep voice.
"What then!" The flat-headed young man was on the verge of crying.
"Everything has weaknesses, and we can only live if we find the weaknesses of the poplar monsters." Su Qiqi glanced at the three poplar monsters.
"Where can I find this?" Both the flat-headed youth and the middle-aged man were desperate, and they fell to the ground like deflated balls.
"First of all, the branch used to attack is excluded, and its weakness should be in the trunk or in the roots. Trees are afraid of fire, do you bring lighters? Su Qiqi's mind spun rapidly and asked the two people who were sitting on the ground.
"I brought it!" The flat-headed man dug into his trouser pocket and pulled out a red lighter with advertisements printed on it.
Su Qiqi stretched out his hand to take it, but he didn't run in the opposite direction of the poplar tree, and rushed straight to the poplar monster on the left, because the one was a little farther away from the two on the right, if the two next to her attacked her together, she would have a longer time to react.
"Pop" Su Qiqi used a lighter to light the dead leaves under the poplar tree on the left, and the orange firelight reflected on Su Qiqi's face.
