Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Lichens are symbiotic complexes of algae and fungi.

Due to the long-term close combination of bacteria and algae, regardless of shape, structure, physiology and genetics, they have formed unique properties and appearances.

However, Meng Chao was familiar with hundreds of species of lichens, but he had never seen a lichen so weird.

It grows extremely fast.

Just now Meng Chao scraped vigorously on the tree trunk, scraping off a centimeter thick lichen, exposing the dark trunk inside.

But a few seconds later, the lichens on both sides squirmed and covered it, and even flowed out a dark green juice, re-wrapping the trunk at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It was as if Meng Chao's fingers had penetrated into a green sea, and no matter how vigorously he stirred it, it was impossible to tear a crack in the sea.

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes, trying to activate the ultra-micro observation ability of his eyes.

There was a sudden pain in the fingertips, and the lichen sticking to the fingers hissed like boiling.

Meng Chao raised his fingers and carefully observed the fingertips.

When he increased the magnification of his eyes to hundreds of times, he saw that the lichen he scraped off was still highly active, with hair-thin green tentacles protruding from the inside, like a vibrant Sprout, sniffing and poking around, wanted to tear his skin open and get into the warm flesh.

Meng Chao has psychic powers to protect his body, and his flesh and blood are as strong as steel, so he is naturally not afraid of the "lichen" attack.

But if it is an ordinary person, or an ignorant and ignorant beast, it may not be so.

What would happen if a handful of lichens penetrated into the body?

Meng Chao thought of a scene taken by the "Pan-eating Pomfret" team.

In the body of a "piranha" soldier, ghostly things resembling poisonous snakes, vines, and branches were wriggling.

When the captain planned to force this ghost thing into the soldier's arm, and then cut off the whole arm, it also tried to grow countless vines and moss to wrap the arm, turning into an ugly creature like a deformed spider.

Wait, Meng Chao suddenly realized that it wasn't moss.

At least not just moss.

There are also these fat and greasy "lichens" that smell like rotting corpses.

Meng Chao snapped his fingers lightly.

A spiritual flame shot out from the fingertips, burning the lichen completely.

But as far as the eye could see, the entire jungle was covered with lichen.

Judging from its growth rate, even if all the spar ammunition carried by the exploration team is exhausted, it is impossible to completely burn them up.

"Look, what is that!"

Suddenly, an explorer exclaimed.

Meng Chao and Long Feijun ran in the direction he pointed, aiming their guns firmly at the place between several lichen-covered rocks, where the emerald green was the most intense.

This place is like a "nest" of lichens. In the dark corners, countless lichens condense into precise spheres, which are not round like natural creations.

The outer shells of some of these spheres have exploded like overripe fruits, revealing the bright red..."stamens" inside.

Something resembling a flower pistil shot up into the sky, like a bunch of strange flames, and like a skinned ghost hand that came out of the ground, it made my mouth dry and cold all over my body.

"Blood pattern flower..."

Meng Chao murmured.

He and Long Feijun looked at each other, and they both saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.

The blood streak flower is the most troublesome fungus-like organism for humans.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is even more troublesome than many doomsday beasts.

The individual attack power of the Doomsday Beast is indeed unparalleled, but after all, it is huge and can only attack one place at a time. It can be intercepted by a strong man in the divine realm, and the train cannon can bombard it.

The blood-streaked flower itself does not have a strong attack power, but it is elusive and can float with the wind, which greatly increases the combat power of monsters and the chance of transforming into undead creatures. It can also stimulate the variability of zombie viruses, bursting out hundreds of species Strange super zombies.

However, the blood-patterned flowers growing in the middle of the strange lichens in the depths of the Wuyin Absolute Territory were the most lush and colorful that Meng Chao had ever seen.

The emerald-green lichen and the blood-red blood-streaked flower, two completely different colors, collided to create a gloomy sense of terror.

Meng Chao and Long Feijun took two steps back and nodded at the same time.

Two exploration team members with flamethrowers stepped forward and sprayed strange fire mixed with monster bone powder and spar powder.

The purple fire grows against the storm, with the blood pattern flower as the center, and soon covers a radius of 100 meters.

In the raging flames, no matter the blood pattern flower or the weird lichen, they all accelerated their growth and wriggling, making a "squeaky" neighing.

Hearing the sound, the lichens next to them sped up and squirmed, like waves after waves, trying to rush over to extinguish the flames.

But the strange fire was too fierce, using strange lichens as fuel, heaped up a wall of fire that burned up to the treetops, firmly blocked more lichens from the outside, and finally burned all the lichens and blood-patterned flowers inside the wall of fire .

All members of the exploration team, including Meng Chao and Long Feijun, also took out a few injections from the medical bag they carried with them.

This is a vaccine.

And a cell booster against bloodstreaked flower spores.

Monsters are evolving, and humans are also evolving.

Monsters can use biochemical technology to concoct blood-streaked flowers, zombie viruses, magical capsules, and thousands of other scary things.

The "shields" and "armors" of human beings are also constantly upgraded, and various vaccines and medical agents have been developed. They can even extract the essence of zombie viruses and blood-streaked flower spores in reverse, and get rid of the negative effects that make people mad. role, retaining the function of allowing human beings to surpass the limit of life.

laugh! laugh! laugh! laugh!

The exploration team members completed the injections with each other, and as Huang Chengcheng's medicine was injected into the body, the cold and transparent feeling brought them some psychological comfort.

"Look, there's something there!"

Among the strange lichens and blood-streaked flower spores that had been burnt black, a bright silver thing suddenly appeared.

It looked familiar, as if it was some kind of metal part.

Meng Chao shot out the chain blade.

The gleaming golden heavy-duty sword, as precise as a scalpel, tore apart the scorched lichen and blood-stained flowers, revealing a pile of rune machine wreckage.

Seven or eight rune machines with missing arms and broken legs were piled up artificially, like a tomb.

There is also a mechanical arm inserted in front of it, just like a tombstone without writing.

"It's a temporary tomb built by Sister Ya and the others!"

Meng Chao and the exploration team lifted their spirits.

Before Lu Siya disappeared, the video sent to the rear stated that they found a cave based on the information left by the "Pan-eating Pomfret" team, which contained the remains of several soldiers who died in the "Pan-eating Pomfret" team.

When Lu Siya and the others found them, these remains had been devoured by snakes, insects, rats and ants.

In order to prevent the victim's remains from being damaged, they dug an extremely deep grave and buried the victim temporarily, preparing to transfer the victim to the Martyrs Cemetery after humans captured the Misty Absolute Territory.

"When Sister Ya and the others dug the temporary tomb, there were naturally not so many strange lichens and blood-streaked flower spores nearby, otherwise they would never have chosen this place."

Meng Chao muttered to himself, "That is to say, these lichens and blood-streaked flower spores grew after they left, no, they wriggled and migrated here.

"Could it be that he smelled the smell of human remains and wanted to devour our victims?

"Impossible, how much energy a few human remains can provide is nothing compared to the energy consumed by so many lichens traveling long distances.

"Or are these weird lichens and blood-streaked flower spores controlled by some kind of intelligent creature? They are all biochemical weapons of the mastermind behind the monster civilization?"

Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but wiped off a cold sweat, and secretly called out for danger.

Fortunately, they arrived in time to burn all the lichens and bloodstained flower spores next to the tomb.

Otherwise, when the blood-streaked flower spores grow more luxuriantly, its hyphae will most likely extend to the ground, wrapping the corpse of the victim and transforming it into an undead creature.

A few humanoid undead creatures, the fighting power is not worth mentioning.

But the humiliation of the corpses of human heroes is always something that the successors don't want to see.

It's a pity that they still have a task to do, and it is impossible to dig out the corpse of the victim and take it away.

They could only set up a trap around the tomb, and placed more than a dozen incendiary bombs that were ready to go off.

If the lichen and bloodstain flower spores come back, they can burn them all out again.

The discovery of this tomb can finally help them overlap their current environment with the maps surveyed by the "Pan-eating Pomfret" team and the Lu Siya team.

And according to the map, he determined his current coordinates, the route leading directly to the tiankeng, and the safe passage to escape from the hidden fog along the original route of Lu Siya and the others.

"Don't worry, we will definitely uproot all the weird lichens and blood-streaked flower spores, and completely wipe out the monster civilization!"

Long Feijun led everyone to pay a solemn military salute to the "tombstone" engraved with the battle emblem of Dragon City.

At this time, there was an explosion not far away, and there were intensive gunshots.

It's the direction of the Kunpeng's forced landing!

Everyone looked at each other, their hairs stood on end, they hurriedly maintained their battle formation, and returned to the Kunpeng as quickly as possible.

However, by the time they rushed back, the skirmish was over.

The exploration team members guarding the portal were unscathed.

It's just that the face and body are covered with steaming mud.

A group of small monsters fell on the edge of the swamp, and they all turned into hornet's nests.

The team leader guarding here said that just now a spar engine of the Kunpeng exploded, detonating the methane deep in the mud.

The explosion of methane alarmed some monsters, but they did not attack humans, but fled in panic.

But it was hit by the nervous explorers as a moving target.

"It turns out that there are still some monsters here."

Long Feijun asked two explorers to drag back some monster corpses.

Everyone turned their attention to Meng Chao.

Everyone knows that he is a skilled senior harvester.

The role of the coroner, of course, belongs to him.
