No one could have imagined that the weeds and trees that had been carefully preserved in the first place would become the source of the crisis.

In the Sihai base, there is a small metasequoia forest around the land specially set aside for growing crops, in addition to weeds.

The people in the base cherish these metasequoia trees very much, and when they encountered extremely cold weather before, they relied on cutting down trees and picking up some dead branches to keep warm.

Under the reasonable planning of Shi Maochang and others, these metasequoia trees have never been directly cut down, and under their leadership, the survivors are very measured every time they cut down, and they will never touch those seedlings.

So much so that now, when Mao Chang looks at the lush metasequoia forest, he only feels frightened.

Secretary Zhao stood aside, looked up and down the metasequoia tree, and wondered for a while: "It seems that there is no problem." ”

Glancing at Wang Xiaoxiao, Secretary Zhao whispered in Shi Maochang's ear: "Base chief, could it be that plant mutation is an example?" ”

Hearing this, Shi Maochang had a puzzled look on his face.

However, Wang Xiaoxiao's ears moved slightly, and after hearing Secretary Zhao's whispered words, he looked at him with a smile, "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, since we are all here, it is better to ...... Go in and have a look? ”

Wang Xiaoxiao's words just tickled Shi Maochang and Secretary Zhao, and the two immediately decided to organize someone to investigate.

As for this manpower......

"I'll go!"

Wang Xiaoxiao turned around and saw Ren Wentang, who was leading the team in great strides.

Shi Maochang greeted him with a smile on his face, "Xiao Ren, why are you here." ”

"It's my turn to patrol tonight, I heard Wei Nan say a few words about Boss Wang's return to the base, I thought I would visit later, but I didn't expect to meet ...... here" Ren Wentang said expressionlessly, only the occasional flickering gaze revealed his heart weakness.

Without waiting for him to continue, Wang Xiaoxiao answered, "Then Captain Ren happened to hear our conversation and knew about the possible mutation of plants, right?" ”

“…… Well. Nodding stiffly, Ren Wentang glanced at Secretary Zhao without a trace.

In fact, as early as when Shi Maochang proposed to come here to check, Secretary Zhao had already sent someone to find Ren Wentang, although he believed Wang Xiaoxiao, but he did not praise Maochang's behavior of directly reporting what Wang Xiaoxiao reported without verification.

In his opinion, it is necessary to verify on the spot, and the personnel sent must not be poor, after all, in Wang Xiaoxiao's description, these mutated plants are very dangerous, and they must be prepared in advance.

Therefore, Ren Wentang didn't happen to patrol and pass by at all, but came over on purpose.

Seeing Secretary Zhao's careful thoughts, Wang Xiaoxiao didn't say much, they were different from her position, and it was their duty to be cautious.

Ren Wentang didn't bring too many people, there were only five people behind him, plus a total of six of him entered the metasequoia forest, except for him himself, who was a gold-type superpower, the other five people were all fire-type superpowers, just to restrain mutant plants.

Wrapping his body tightly, Ren Wentang and the others held sharp demon-breaking knives and walked slowly towards the metasequoia forest.

Seeing that the figures of Ren Wentang and several people gradually disappeared into the obscuration of the trees, Secretary Zhao secretly looked at Wang Xiaoxiao from time to time, with some doubts in his eyes, as if he wanted to say, "They went in, but they were fine." ’

Ignoring Secretary Zhao's eyes, Wang Xiaoxiao's eyes were firmly fixed on the direction in which Ren Wentang and the others entered.

In the silent woods, Ren Wentang and the others walked very lightly, but in a few minutes, the big drops of sweat on their foreheads kept falling, although they were not attacked, but they all came from the sea of swords and fires, and their perception of danger was more acute than that of ordinary people.

From the moment they entered the metasequoia forest, Ren Wentang and the others felt the stares cast from all directions, but when they looked around, they found nothing.

The quiet woods seem to be a sleeping beast slowly awakening, and once it is fully awakened, it will reveal its sharp claws to them.

"Team Ren, something is wrong!"

A member lightly touched Ren Wentang's arm, this person's name was Shi Lu, who was born with a pair of sensitive ears, and at this moment his ears moved slightly, looking at the ground under his feet with a nervous expression.

"I also felt that something was wrong, that something was following us from the moment we entered here, and that feeling was getting stronger." Another member softly chimed in.

The rest nodded sympathetically.

They had been to this place many times, but never had they had such a strong sense of crisis as this one, the hairs on their bodies stood up, and the whole person was on alert.

After waiting for a few more minutes, the woods were still quiet, frowning, Ren Wentang said, "Exit first." ”

His heart was beating a little hard, and he felt like he couldn't stay here any longer.

"Yes!" ×5

Several people retreated lightly.

However, at this moment, the originally quiet forest suddenly became lively, and the sleeping beast had awakened.

Puff puff!

Suddenly, a dense ball of balls appeared in the air and flew towards them.

Several people reacted extremely quickly, and immediately surrounded the city, erected the shields in their hands, and spliced them together one by one, firmly protecting their bodies.

Bang Bang Bang!

The sound of impact sounded, and the hand holding the shield trembled slightly under the strong impact, and the eyes of several people were a little frightened.

Are these plants so lethal after mutating?

Looking at the gradually deformed shield, several people glanced at each other, and their eyes couldn't stop being surprised.

Ren Wentang squatted down, stretched out his hands that became golden, and fished out the gap in the shield, an earthy yellow cone fell into his hand, and his fingers pinched the cone, but he didn't pinch it, and then he added strength, but there was still no movement, until Ren Wentang used ten percent of his strength, which pinched the cone to a small corner.

Ren Wentang: ......

"What's that?" Shilu asked in a whisper.

"Metasequoia's cones."

"Is this thing so hard?"

Hearing Shi Lu's exclamation, another member named He Qi glanced back at the cones in Ren Wentang's hand, "Is this unusual?" If you look at the metasequoia trees outside, have you ever seen a metasequoia tree that shoots cones like a pea shooter to attack people? ”

Shilu: "Well, I haven't seen it." ”

At this time, a member who was holding the shield with both hands couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, "Damn, this metasequoia tree has become a pea shooter, how can we live?" ”

Ren Wentang threw the ball fruit in his hand on the ground, "Don't say anything, we have to get out quickly." ”

"Yes, yes, this shield is dying." Shi Lu looked at the tattered shield in his hand and was worried, this thing was made of steel, and it was about to be scrapped in just a few minutes, he didn't dare to use his flesh and blood to resist these dense attacks, so it was strange that he couldn't shoot him into a sieve.

Ren Wentang first added metal reinforcement to each shield, and then asked others to set fire to form a wall of fire around the shield, and the five of them worked together, although they could not intercept all the incoming cones in advance, but the impact on the shield was significantly reduced.

"Retreat!"
