Chapter 290 Drilling Into the Abyss
After three days and nights, the Emerald Dragon City.
There are still a lot of emerald dragons living in this city. They did not participate in the war, nor did they fly to the city of scorpions to do crystal work. They still lived ordinary lives and waited for Susumi to bring victory. message back.
However, this city, which was originally far from the war, has now also been involved in disaster.
"Squeak... woo..." A large number of plants crawled slowly with their roots. They gathered under the outermost city wall of the Emerald Dragon City, constantly waving their roots to climb in from the wall.
"These things are gathering more and more... Has this jungle gone crazy?" There were several emerald dragon soldiers on the wall observing the situation below, and one emerald dragon said: "Have we contacted the king? "
Another emerald dragon said: "I don't know, the Yalong knight who went out has not responded... Wait, look at that!"
‘Boom! ’ There was a sound from the ground, and I saw a six-meter-high plant walking out of the forest.
This plant does not move with its root system, but with 'legs', which looks like its lower trunk is split in half and forms a 'legs' structure. It also has two special roots on the upper body. Thick branches serve as 'arms'.
The monster walked to the city wall, raised its 'arm' high, and then smashed it hard...
'boom! ' Under a loud noise, the emerald dragons above were almost shaken!
"Gah! It wants to destroy the city wall! Hurry up and attack! Burn it with fire!" Several emerald dragons hurriedly climbed down the wall to prepare, and the big tree with hands hit the city wall again and again. It doesn't seem to feel pain, under constant blows. Cracks began to appear in the solid walls.
"Shoot!" At this time, the emerald dragons arrived. They set the arrows on fire and shot a rain of rockets at the big tree that was beating the city wall. The flames turned and fled into the jungle.
The emerald dragons breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. Whether this would cause a forest fire was obviously not in their consideration.
Although the jungle is very humid. There's hardly any chance of a fire.
But has there been such a category?
This kind of tree is a new variant, it has more powerful mobility, Lin found that as long as these trees get enough nutrients, they will continue to mutate under the influence of the virus,
Some change and die, some become stronger. This tree is a good example.
But no matter what kind of infected plants, the green cells that they originally depended on for survival will disappear, so that they can no longer absorb light energy, and can only obtain the energy needed for change by constantly killing the surrounding animals.
In the end, when everything is killed, the plants will wither and fall to the ground because they have no energy. At that time, the creator's purpose has been achieved, and the entire continent will be littered with corpses, and they will all become food for the "creator".
In the sky above the Emerald Dragon City, many flyers flew past, and Lin's next goal was here. In the root of the tree, most of the signals were sent by that ganglion alone. But that particularly strong signal was actually a signal sent from a major part of the distance, transmitted to the brain reader through a large number of ganglia distributed within the root of the tree...
And by perceiving this signal, Lin has found out where it originated.
It is under the ground of the Emerald Dragon City, to be precise, under a colossal stone.
These cobblestones are wonderful things, and the emerald dragons lived around them in the first large-scale colonies, but I didn't expect the creator to hide here too.
Lin needs to be more careful not to affect the emerald dragon above, but this is the best chance to kill the creator with one blow, and Lin can't move too slowly.
'boom……'
"What happened?"
The earth was shaking slowly, and the emerald dragons in the city became nervous. They all hid in their houses, and only a few stayed in the open space.
The Emerald Dragons haven't experienced a big earthquake, and they don't seem to know what to do. Although it's not an earthquake, Lin's biggest unit, the pioneers, is moving underground.
With a body of more than 70 meters and an armor made of metal synthesized from volcanic rocks on the seabed, the pioneers spun through the underground rock formations like they were drilling into soft soil, and moved deeper into the ground, causing a slight impact on the ground. vibration.
When the pioneers drilled the ground, they did not cause unnecessary cracks in the surrounding rock formations, so the ground should be fine. Under the ground, the pioneers have found countless tree roots, but they are hardly worth mentioning to the pioneers. At the moment of contact, they were twisted into powder.
Lin still remembered where the signal came from before. The pioneers were constantly approaching the target. The closer they got, the more tree roots there were. After all of them were minced, the pioneers had reached the target.
right here!
With the figure of the rock formation and tree roots being twisted, Lin felt that the pioneers suddenly entered an open space.
this is……
The pioneers glowed in front of the head, and Lin saw an incomparably huge structure that looked like... tree bark?
The Pioneer is now in what looks like a cave. The cave is quite narrow, surrounded by rock walls and exposed tree roots, and the cave passage in front of the Pioneer is blocked by a huge bark.
This seems to be a huge tree? But obviously there is no way to see its whole body from this position, but Lin can also infer its diameter by looking at this part, maybe... a few hundred meters?
Much bigger than the home tree...
No matter that much, drill it out.
Just when the pioneers were about to move forward, the surrounding rock walls suddenly swayed, and then a large amount of white powder spewed out from the gaps in the rock walls...
Is this a trap?
These powders are all fungus dust, they all stick to the pioneers, and because the pioneers have drilled many tree roots before, the large amount of liquid adhered to the body makes the fungus dust begin to grow, and a large amount of mycelium entangles the pioneers the body of the person.
But...it doesn't make any sense at all!
The pioneer spun and accelerated, and the mycelium on its body was pulled off in an instant. It rushed straight to the passage of the cave, and its head hit the bark in front of it heavily...
'boom! ’
With a huge roar, the pioneers knocked out a huge crack in the bark.
'boom! ’ But almost at the same time, another roar followed, not here, but farther away… Lin’s underground base in the northern part of the continent! (To be continued...)
