The dense willow catkins had disappeared from the four people's sight, replaced by a dozen huge cocoons lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.

Everything seemed to have returned to calm, and it was hard to tell that more than a dozen lives had been lost here not long ago.

Shi Jiaojiao and the other three came out from behind the big tree. Having witnessed the horror of the catkins with their own eyes, no one dared to act rashly.

Wang Jia looked at the scene not far away, his eyes full of shock. He opened and closed his mouth several times before uttering, "This tree is not mutated, it has become a spirit. It is even scarier than the previous pine tree."

Tang Wei swallowed and looked at the dozen or so white cocoons on the ground, unable to utter a word for a moment.

Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci also remained silent.

The attack of catkins is indeed terrible, but more importantly, it is weird.

Is it possible that the willow tree and the spider are secretly learning from each other? Otherwise, why are they both following the same path?

They have been watching the whole process here, but until now they are still not sure how Liu Xu attacked?

They understood clearly that the hoarse man died of suffocation.

But what about the remaining dozen people? How did they die?

They still remember that staggering figure clearly.

Could it be that willow catkins have the power to cause hallucinations?

Unable to figure it out, Shi Jiaojiao simply suggested getting closer to take a look.

After hearing this, Wang Jia had an expression that said "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Jiaojiao, why don't we go back and tell the base about the problem here? This catkin is too dangerous."

I’m afraid that I may go there alive but not come back alive.

Shi Jiaojiao looked somewhat helpless: "I'm not stupid. Since I'm going to check it out, of course I have to make preparations."

After saying that, she took the three of them back to the space.

That’s right, there are also several sets of completely enclosed protective clothing in the warehouse, the kind that can be worn with oxygen cylinders, which can completely isolate the willow catkins from the outside.

As long as there is no contact, the danger level will be greatly reduced.

At the same time, Shi Jiaojiao also took out a safety rope with a steel wire core and tied everyone together, so that even if there was an accident, they could return to the space in the first time.

Seeing these preparations, Wang Jia felt relieved a lot.

The four of them put on their protective clothing as quickly as possible, then checked each other's safety ropes around their waists. After everything was ready, they walked out of the space.

They have already wasted a lot of time in this area and they must hurry up.

Although this protective suit is heavy and very inconvenient to wear, the sense of security it brings is irreplaceable by any other equipment.

The four of them were tied into a straight line with safety ropes, with Mu Ci in the lead, Shi Jiaojiao following closely behind, Wang Jia in the third, and Tang Wei at the rear.

Although they had made preparations in advance, they still walked carefully, trying not to make too much noise.

As they got closer, the willow catkins that had almost disappeared from the air just now slowly fell from the willow tree.

Shi Jiaojiao looked at the light and fluffy willow catkins that were getting closer to them, her eyes moved slightly, and the next second, four things appeared out of thin air in her hands.

When she left the space just now, she always felt that she had forgotten something, and now she finally remembered it.

fan!

Shi Jiaojiao distributed small handheld fans to everyone. These are rechargeable and can be reused.

Having a small fan is much better than waving it with your hands!

Sure enough, after the small fan was turned on, the catkins that were about to fly in front of me were blown in another direction.

Although it tried to twist its body back the next second, it continued to move closer to its prey step by step with difficulty.

It looks quite inspiring.

But none of the four people standing here applauded them.

The first thing everyone approached was the body of the hoarse man.

Of course, it is now completely impossible to tell that there is a corpse lying on the ground. If they had not watched the whole process, they would even think that there might be some kind of mutant animal lying there.

Shi Jiaojiao curiously walked around the big cocoon, then looked at the other three people. When she saw that everyone had reached a consensus, she carefully poked the cocoon with the tool in her hand.

Unexpectedly, before she could retract the knife, she saw the huge snow-white cocoon suddenly shake and then disintegrate in an instant.

That’s right, they have changed from huge white cocoons into their original appearance, willow catkins!

How to describe this picture? It is like countless ants gathered into a big ball, and suddenly scattered due to external stimulation.

But now the ones who are being stimulated are Shi Jiaojiao and the other three.

Before anyone could react, all they could see were flying willow catkins.

They are so dense and everywhere that the small fan in my hand has little effect in this situation. As soon as I blow away the catkins here, the catkins over there come quietly.

It was as if it wanted to surround the four of them and wrap them into a huge cocoon.

Shi Jiaojiao looked at the willow catkins that kept flying onto her mask. She didn't know if she was hallucinating, but she felt that the previously pure white catkins now had a faint red color.

This scene was even more terrible than the previous one when they saw a dozen people being chased by Liu Xu.

Now, they finally understood how those people felt at that time.

Even though they were wearing fully enclosed protective suits, it was obvious that they could no longer stay here.

Shi Jiaojiao pulled the safety rope around her waist. For safety reasons, the four people were not far away from each other. When she pulled, the others were by her side in an instant.

The next second, the four of them retreated back into the space in unison.

After standing firmly, everyone did not take off their protective clothing immediately, but first brushed off the catkins on each other's bodies.

It’s strange to say, the willow catkins that were so terrifying outside and looked like living creatures, instantly changed their appearance after entering the space, and were completely no different from before the end of the world.

It can be blown away, mashed up, and allowed to be done to whatever the four people want.

However, the four of them did not relax and the protective clothing was still tightly worn on their bodies.

Mu Ci rolled up all the willow catkins they brought with them into a ball, and then soaked them all in the little acid rain that was left.

They didn't have any special chemicals to dissolve willow catkins, but fortunately the concentration of acid rain was extremely high, so the effect was very good.

After they checked everywhere and found no trace of willow catkins, they prepared to take off their protective suits to get some fresh air.

Tang Wei opened his mask, took a deep breath, and then looked at the willow catkins in the basin that had been almost corroded and shapeless, with a puzzled look on his face: "Could it be that this thing is not acclimatized? Why is it so quiet after entering the space?"

Shi Jiaojiao shook her head: "It's not that easy. I guess this part of the catkins was brought into the space and lost contact with the willow trees outside. That's why it was so easy to solve."

They also saw the scene of willow catkins killing people just now. They could deal with a few willow catkins, but with so many densely packed willow catkins that it was hard to say whether the acid rain would be effective. Even if it was effective, they didn't have that much in stock.

But they don’t have the medicine to dissolve willow catkins, maybe the base has it?

I just don't know if the quantity is enough.

It would be nice if there were other ways to deal with catkins.
