spooky invasion

Chapter 555 Life without the breath of life?

There are no living things, no vitality, and the silence is like hell.

Then, before Jiang Yue was outside the dense forest, he clearly heard the faint movement, that suppressed movement, it can't be an illusion.

What is the reason?
Jiang Yue leaned lightly under a big tree, stopped, and almost raised his mental strength to the extreme state.

He didn't believe it, could it be that there wasn't a single living creature in the entire great circle area with a radius of 30 meters?

Facts once again poured cold water on him.

He radiated all his mental power, not letting go of any corner, but still got nothing.

This is a dead land, no insects, no frogs, no snakes, no rats running, no signs of any living creatures moving.

retreat?

This thought popped out of Jiang Yue's mind.

Intuition told him that he could not go any further.Any extra step, what awaits him may be an abyss.

At this moment, Jiang Yue's eyelids suddenly twitched, and the roots of his ears moved slightly. Almost at the same time, an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly surged in his consciousness.

This sense of crisis came inexplicably, so suddenly.

Jiang Yue felt a sound coming from the top of his head, and his body reacted instinctively. His back hit the tree trunk violently. With the help of the bouncing force of the tree trunk, Jiang Yue's body was ejected like an arrow.

Almost the moment Jiang Yue bounced away from the scene, a strange liquid dripped down on the huge tree trunk where he had originally stood.

After the liquid landed, it turned into a puddle strangely, and spread rapidly on the ground.

Looking up again, a large piece of thick liquid hangs down from the trunk, spreading down the trunk.

What's even more weird is that during the spreading process, these liquids, which looked like resin but were not resin, originally spread down the tree trunk.But at this moment, within the liquid-wrapped tree trunk, there seemed to be some force trying to break free from the liquid wrap, and kept pushing out, pushing out various strange shapes.

But no matter how the force pushes out, the thick liquid is full of tenacity, and it will not be broken. As soon as the force of pushing outward disappears, the thick liquid immediately recovers its shape and clings to the tree trunk again. It's as if nothing happened.

Such a strange scene really made Jiang Yue's scalp tingle.

At this moment, another big tree next to him made a slight movement, and a large piece of viscous liquid quickly gathered on the trunk along the branches and leaves.

Jiang Yue was dumbfounded. When he was surprised, a bulge suddenly protruded from the sticky liquid-wrapped tree trunk, and quickly expanded outward, driving the tough mucus to spread out. It turned out to be a thick arm. Ji spread five fingers, and grabbed Jiang Yue face to face.

This came very suddenly, almost only a foot away from Jiang Yue.

Fortunately, Jiang Yue's reaction was also quick, and he slid back quickly, trying to avoid that weird grab.

What Jiang Yue didn't expect was that the arm seemed to be unrestrained, and it grew longer quickly. Wherever Jiang Yue retreated, the arm followed!
Infinite spread!

This caught Jiang Yue by surprise.

Fortunately, Jiang Yue was fast enough and reacted quickly enough.

Every time this infinitely spreading arm is about to touch him, he can always speed up again to get rid of it.

Until Jiang Yue circled several small circles in a row, the potential of this infinitely spreading arm was finally exhausted, and it was almost straightened like a spring. There was no potential to be tapped, and it was suddenly loosened, and it shrank back.

Almost in the breath, the arm was retracted into the trunk, calm as before, and there was no more movement.The large piece of mucus also quickly traveled up the trunk and quickly disappeared into the crown of the tree.

This situation is like a fountain rushing out of the water, no matter how high it sprays, it will eventually fall back to the water, and then quickly return to calm.

Unfortunately, there was no time for Jiang Yue to think about it.

Press the gourd to float the scoop, just as the slime attack over there retracted, a huge head suddenly popped up here, opened its mouth and bit towards Jiang Yue's shoulder.

The speed was so fast that Jiang Yue had no room for thinking.

Thanks to Jiang Yue, for anyone who reacted slower, this huge head that suddenly protruded from behind could have bit off half of Jiang Yue's shoulder on the spot.

Jiang Yue dodged continuously, and quickly shuttled through the bushes, dodging one after another of sudden attacks.

Soon, the giant trees in the dense forest, large pieces of mucus appeared continuously, simulating into various strange shapes, like monsters emerging from hell, the situation was indescribably strange.

Jiang Yue realized that he had unintentionally stepped into a terrifying trap.

Although he is not sure now, this trap is not aimed at him, or it was there before, he just broke into it by accident.

These consecutive attacks made Jiang Yue behave a little better.

His position at the moment is very particular.The terrain is relatively open, and there are no big trees within ten meters of the surrounding area.

There were several thigh-thin trees, but he kicked them down several times.

In this way, a relatively empty area appeared around him, and his field of vision was relatively wider. Even if he was attacked from behind, he would at least have plenty of time to react.

He also figured out that these trees with slime were basically the kind of big trees that couldn't be hugged by both hands.

In this dense forest, there are indeed many trees of this kind, but not all of them have this thickness.

Moreover, there is a distance between this kind of embracing trees after all, and such big trees cannot be close to each other.

This also invisibly gave Jiang Yue some room to dodge and move.

If all the trees here could produce this kind of slime, there would be basically no room for Jiang Yue to maneuver.

Jiang Yue stood where he was, every cell in his body was on high alert.

At the same time, he carefully observed these strange and constantly changing slimes, trying to find some clues.

What the hell is all this slime?
He also knew that after the weird invasion, all kinds of strange life forms would appear, maybe this slime is also some kind of weird life form?
But just looking at the slime, one can't tell what kind of creature it is, nor can it feel any breath of life.

To say it is an animal is obviously not an animal, nor is a plant like a plant.

However, the grotesque shapes of these mucus constantly swelled up, but they were particularly personified, imitating the shapes of arms, minions, heads, etc., obviously imitating the shape of human beings.

This is something that Jiang Yue can't figure out.

Could it be that there is some kind of life hidden in this mucus?

Just because of the effect of this mucus, completely covering up the breath of life?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yue suddenly felt that there might be some basis for this judgment. .

The slime itself is logically impossible to simulate various shapes by itself, and it seems that the power of simulation is bulging from the inside out.

Thinking of Qin Hao's bottle of spray, isn't it also able to cover up the breath of life?
Then these mucus may also have the same effect, which can cover up the breath of real life forms, and create all kinds of weird attack effects through the cover of mucus.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yue secretly settled down.

In the thick trees around, more and more slime gathered, bulging into all kinds of strange shapes, ready to move, as if they could jump off the trunk at any time, forming an independent movable body, and forming a fatal attack on Jiang Yue.

However, the imaginary siege did not come.

I don't know if they are waiting to receive instructions, or if they are afraid of Jiang Yue.

All in all, Jiang Yue was surrounded by these strange shapes, but he never attacked.The previous sporadic and tentative attacks seemed to be just to tease Jiang Yue, not to fight with all his strength.

This made Jiang Yue feel strange.

Of course he wasn't interested in guessing riddles. Since these weird things didn't take the initiative to attack, Jiang Yue couldn't spend nothing on the spot.

Seeing the right time, he planned to retreat from the same road.

However, when his body slid backward like a swimming fish, the slime on the giant trees behind him reacted first.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Strings of mucus stretched out like arms, quickly forming a wall like Avalokitesvara on Jiang Yue's retreat, forcibly blocking Jiang Yue's way forward.

Jiang Yue quickly sprinted to the side, trying to bypass this obstacle.

Then, the slime between the giant trees seems to have a natural tacit understanding, and they can communicate with each other as they like.

Before Jiang Yue had time to jump out of the encirclement, he blocked the left and right roads.

Lines of slime lay in front of Jiang Yue, like building a series of fences, making Jiang Yue have nowhere to go.

There are streaks of slime ahead, fences built of slime backward, and the canopy of Heibu Longdong upwards. God knows what kind of crisis is hidden there.

The only road left for Jiang Yue is underground. Unless Jiang Yue has the ability to escape, there is really no way out.

Jiang Yue frowned.

He was a little puzzled, what did the other party mean by this kind of operation?
Such a large amount of slime, supposedly suppressed him in absolute numbers. If they attacked together, it would be difficult for Jiang Yue to resist.

Just when Jiang Yue was wondering, there seemed to be a faint sound of footsteps in the distance.

The sound of these footsteps sounded a little procrastinated, and when they stepped on the ground, they felt a little sloppy and lazy, like someone who was woken up from a sleepy sleep and reluctant to wake up at night.

anyone?

Finally someone here?

But in the middle of the night, in this eerie dense forest, such slow footsteps not only did not make Jiang Yue feel peaceful, but added a sense of terror.

Can normal people appear in this dense forest in the middle of the night?

Can a normal person get out of such muddy footsteps in this environment?

I can't wait to press my footsteps to the lightest and lowest, preferably silently.

The sound of footsteps was approaching after all, but Jiang Yue still didn't feel the breath of living things approaching.

This made Jiang Yue even more suspicious.

Isn't this footsteps a living thing?
Jiang Yue inexplicably remembered that the carload of people in Panshiling returned to the town that night, and it was also such a slow pace, such a strange situation.

It's just that it was in the town at that time, but at this moment, it is in this dead and dense forest, which is undoubtedly more terrifying.

Finally, a figure appeared in Jiang Yue's sight.

Just as Jiang Yue guessed, this figure staggered and dragged its feet, and it didn't look like a normal person walking.

How is he?

When Jiang Yue faintly saw the outline of the opponent, Jiang Yue was a little stunned on the spot.

This person is actually Zheng Kang!

It was Zheng Kang who he had been searching for just now!
He really ambushed here?
But what tricks is this kid playing?Why can't he feel the breath of humans at all?Is this kid possessed by a ghost?

That's not right either!
Even if it is possessed by a ghost, the human breath cannot completely disappear.

When Zheng Kang got closer, Jiang Yue found out.

Strictly speaking, this outline is Zheng Kang, but the actual real person is completely different.

At first glance, this person is indeed a person, but upon closer inspection, this person's outline is blurred, his facial features are abstract, and he only vaguely has Zheng Kang's body shape and appearance, but he does not look like a normal human being at all.

To describe that feeling, it is as if a human being has been painted with a layer of paint, and the surface is as smooth as a layer of gold on the surface of the body.

This is Zheng Kang?

Jiang Yue glanced at the other person's chest. There was a slight bulge on the chest. It was the pendant hanging on his chest, which was also painted with the same paint at the moment.

When Zheng Kang walked up to him, he seemed to have received some order, and with a plop, he knelt down in front of Jiang Yue.

This move surprised Jiang Yue.

"Zheng Kang?"

Jiang Yue asked with some uncertainty.

Zheng Kang seemed to have completely lost his sense of autonomy, and knelt down on the ground in a daze, neither answering nor explaining, like a puppet without a soul, kneeling on the ground, as if repenting and redeeming.

At this moment, the slime on the trunks also peeled off the trunks one after another, becoming independent subjects one by one, kneeling down on the spot one after another.

There are hundreds of them in all directions.

Jiang Yue took a closer look and found that the layer on Zheng Kang's body was exactly the same as the mucus, showing a strange deep purple color, which looked like a giant eggplant.

Kneeling in all directions is also this weird deep purple.

Jiang Yue suddenly remembered something.

Is this really Zheng Kang?And the ones kneeling in all directions are those ghosts summoned by Zheng Kang?

Zheng Kang and these ghosts were all trapped by this mucus, and became what they are now?

The more Jiang Yue thought about it, the more likely it was.

But, why do they bow down to themselves?
What is the power behind all of this?
This weird purple reminded Jiang Yue of a certain possibility.

Isn't the weird giant egg in Qiluo Mountain, the purple giant egg that appeared in Tong Feifei's dream, and the monster that once haunted Yangfan Middle School, also this strange purple color?

Is it...

After all, did he accidentally break into the territory of the giant purple egg?
its not right!
According to the data, the giant egg is located far away from the strange rock slope.Otherwise, Jiang Yue and the others would not choose to live on this strange rock slope.

The purpose is not to provoke that weird giant egg, not to provoke the giant egg mother.
