Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

After learning about magical animals from Ussel and the others, Renekton couldn't help but run to Thea and ask her to help him keep an eye on any good-looking magical animals.

As a result, Thea and the captain had already gone to the deepest part of the contaminated area with the Earth Church personnel to investigate the situation.

"So you want to raise a magical animal?" Jessica asked with curiosity as she looked at Renekton who came over to ask about Thea's whereabouts.

"Yes." Renekton nodded.

"However, although these magical animals have strange and various extraordinary abilities, they are not powerful, or even very weak. If you cannot give them the corresponding magic potion, they cannot be your helpers." Jie Sika said while analyzing the pros and cons.

"I don't raise magical animals just to make them my helpers. It's the same as raising cats and dogs as pets. I can keep them if I want!" Renekton said in a matter-of-fact tone.

Jessica was stunned for a moment, then shook her head as if she had thought of something, and then a smile appeared on her face: "It seems that I have been in the Church of Knowledge for a long time, and my thinking has unconsciously become biased towards a rational scholar. "

Then Jessica solemnly nodded to Renekton and thanked him: "Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered this problem. It seems that I will have to raise a magical animal to improve my mental state."

Renekton was still confused at this time: "Well, I didn't say anything. You figured it out yourself."

"Haha, but your words reminded me that you don't need to be so polite. My gratitude is deserved." Jessica said with a chuckle.

"There is a saying that the audience is the least likely way to lose control, and it is also the easiest way to lose control. Now do you know how much impact what you just said on me?" Jessica explained with a smile.

You can tell from her voice that she is very happy now. If you can discover some problems in your own thinking and solve them in time, you can avoid problems that are likely to arise due to this in the future.

"Congratulations!" Renekton smiled and nodded in congratulations.

"I can't stay here forever. I'll go shopping around to see if there are any magical animals suitable for pets. What kind of small animals do you like? I'll help you keep an eye on it." Jessica thought for a moment and said. .

"As long as it looks good." Renekton said casually.

"Okay, I'll pay attention." Jessica nodded, then turned around and wandered elsewhere.

After Jessica left, Renekton also returned to Mr. Koth and Ussel's team. Then the four people began to clean up the mutated creatures along the road in the surrounding area.

This area belongs to the polluted peripheral area. After a round of cleanup yesterday afternoon and the mutated creatures fighting each other, there are not many surviving mutated creatures left.

On an abandoned street overgrown with vines and weeds, the four Renektons formed a circle back to back, each guarding a direction and moving forward cautiously.

The sun was particularly bright today. Under the sunlight, the vines that covered the walls of the house were swaying with green leaves, and the thorns entangled with the gas street lamps were actually full of flowers. There was no sound of insects around.

This made Renekton feel that he and others were not in a dangerous and mutated area, but in a green-themed park.

"The plants here are too lush." ​​Renekton sighed.

"And it's growing very fast. We obviously burned all the plants here yesterday." Jin Ye said.

"Perhaps it's because the church hit the central area too hard yesterday, causing the pollution in that area to spread outwards." Mr. Kosi gave an explanation.

"Pollution is not a living thing, so does he know how to run away?" Jin didn't understand.

"The pollutant is not a living thing, but the pollutants are alive, and they can run away." Renekton heard Mr. Cosi's explanation and felt that this was very possible.

"Wouldn't it mean that today's perimeter is more dangerous than yesterday!" Ussel also became a little nervous at this time.

Most of the people stationed outside the Church of the Earth are wounded. If those mutated creatures are still escaping towards the outside, they will easily cause casualties.

"It's just a possibility, we still need to observe it first." Mr. Cosi stabilized the mood of the temporary team.

The four of them continued to move forward carefully among the green street trees. The further we go, the stranger the plants on the ground become.

Renekton had already seen a two-story tree with only a trunk and no leaves, a red plant that looked like sugarcane, with barbs all over its body, including the leaves, and a bunch of fruit. A plant like a tumbleweed.

Renekton felt that he roughly understood why Jin said that they burned all the plants here yesterday. There was no normal plant in sight.

"Bang!" Mr. Cosi suddenly shot at a group of tumbleweed-like plants on the ground.

"Woo~" A half-human-tall fish monster with arms and legs emerged from it. Blue blood was flowing from one of its hands. It looked like it had been shot by Mr. Cosi just now.

The appearance of this fish monster is really strange. It looks like a fish with a pair of webbed hands and feet and a pair of fangs.

After the fish monster emerged from the grass, it ran directly towards Mr. Cosi who had just fired. Mr. Cosi fired three shots again without dodging, two shots hit the opponent's body and one shot hit the eye. However, this fish monster seemed to feel no pain and still rushed straight towards Mr. Cosi.

Renekton and Ussel, who had reacted at this time, were also ready to attack the fish monster, but the fish monster directly passed by Mr. Koth and ran away quickly.

When the fish monster passed by a gas street lamp entangled with thorns, it was tightly entangled by the thorns that suddenly moved.

The fish monster tripped and fell to the ground, but these thorns had no intention of letting go of the fish monster. They seemed to be growing wildly, entangling the fish monster more and more to death, and some thorns penetrated into the fish monster's body.

The fish monster kept twisting and struggling on the ground, showing great pain, but it made no sound from beginning to end. It seemed that its vocal cords disappeared during the mutation process, and was eventually entangled in thorns and dragged underground.

Renekton felt a little numb on the soles of his feet as he watched this scene. It was where a few of his people had passed just now. But he didn't notice anything strange about the thorns.

"I didn't expect the ability of the cultivator path to be so useful here!" Mr. Cosi's words came from behind.

Renekton immediately turned to look at User, who was standing to his left, and the other man just smiled.

"It's not that easy to use. Only a small number of plants can resonate with my extraordinary ability, allowing me to drive them by consuming spirituality." Ussel explained.

Renekton asked curiously: "Is there any difference between plants that resonate with your extraordinary abilities and ordinary plants?"

Ussel shook his head: "It can't be seen on the surface. To put it more specifically, these plants in this area are relatively normal types of mutations."

"The mutation is relatively normal? Does it mean that the influence of the mutation comes from the ancient alchemist, rather than the characteristics of the blood viscount and the Gou San family characteristics of the clown?" Renekton guessed in his heart.

"Then how do we clean up these mutated plants here? These plants are not easy to mess with." Renekton thought of the performance of the thorns under Ussel's control just now, and felt that the skin on his hands was getting goosebumps. .

"It's up to the Bishops to see if they can do anything about these plants. Their roots are buried deep. If their roots cannot be removed, they will still grow back even if they are all burned." Ussel explained. .

Renekton didn't ask any more questions, and he could probably guess what was going on. These plants perfectly embodied the vitality represented by the Cultivator's Path.

After this episode, Renekton now walks more cautiously on the road. If it weren't for the two Beyonders of the Cultivator path in the team, Renekton felt like he would throw a stone at every plant he saw to test it.

I don’t know whether it’s because of a round of cleaning yesterday or because the mutated extraordinary creatures here are fighting according to the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics. Except for the fish monster they just encountered, Renekton and others have not encountered a single extraordinary animal. .

"Wait a minute, the air in front is filled with some hallucinogenic poisonous gas." Ussel interrupted the progress of several people.

Then he took out a transparent glass bottle from the package on his back, which contained many small red pills. Ussel took out four of them and gave one to each of them.

"This is an antidote pill. I just made it last night. It can deal with most of the toxins here. However, one pill can only last for twenty minutes. We need to remember the time and take it continuously without interruption." Ussel explained.

"No problem." Mr. Koth and Renekton nodded at the same time.

"Then get ready to go. I can feel that there are several relatively strong life forces inside, so be careful." Ussel said as he took out a handful of seeds of unknown crops from the package and scattered them around. Some.

Renekton held a gun in one hand and held the Unlocking Talisman in the other. Behind Mr. Coth, he walked side by side with Jin from the Church of the Earth. The two of them moved forward while paying attention to the movement behind them.

There are many trees and vines crisscrossing the area here, like a big web spun by spiders.

After entering this area, Renekton felt that there was a vague sight around him watching him, but he could not find the other party's location.

After hesitating for a moment, Renekton took the initiative to use the Eye of Secrets. The surrounding vision was suddenly covered with a thick layer of color blocks. Most of these color blocks were green, with different shades, mixed with some red and purple. color blocks.

Every intertwined tree vine around seemed to be alive, shrinking and expanding slowly in Renekton's peeping eyes. At the same time, these tree vines were like a whole, with the rhythm of their contraction and expansion. All exactly the same.

Looking at these vines, Renekton seemed to see a pair of blood-red eyes looking at him from behind.
