Chapter 4 Terrible Turf

Although more than 500 years have passed since the apocalypse, human beings today cannot imagine what the earth will look like before the apocalypse, but the sky in the danger zone is still dark, and the sky is still dark at six o'clock in the morning in May, but everyone in the team After getting up, packing up the tent and eating something random to fill their stomachs, a group of ten people set off towards the predetermined destination.

Although the later four people also noticed the anomaly between Xiao Yunchen and Du Ziqing, they needed to be more vigilant after setting off in a hurry to prevent the appearance of alien animals and plants, so they didn't care about the relationship between the two of them. Is there any problem.

The danger area is divided into ten levels of danger by the China Alliance, and the unknown X area where the degree of danger cannot be judged.

The first-level dangerous area is the area with the lowest level of danger. The alien animals and plants that usually appear in this area are all first-level. As long as there are no large-scale appearances of alien animals (including swarms of alien insects), this area is relatively safe. But there is no guarantee that other levels of beasts will not flee into the first-level area, and there is no absolutely reliable and safe place in the danger area.There are central and local armed military forces in the alliance. These military forces will monitor the surrounding areas of the living safety zone to the greatest extent to ensure that there will be no large-scale or high-level alien animals and plants invading cities where humans live. Therefore, , after leaving the city, there will be a large area that belongs to the first-level danger zone.

The team of Xiao Yunchen and others sleeps at the edge of the first-level danger zone at night, and will enter the second-level danger zone when they start again. The place they are going to is located in the third-level danger zone, but even if there are two fourth-level hunters in the team, They also couldn't guarantee safety in the third-level danger. The lower the level, the easier it was for the strange beasts to appear in groups, but the higher the level, the rarer the number of strange beasts.

They walked on foot. Unlike the safe zone, most of the dangerous zone is covered by dense plants, and the road is rough. For humans, the terrifying dangerous zone environment is a paradise for animals and plants. From the day of the end of the world, all animals and plants have grown wantonly and crazily as if they had been injected with hormones, quickly encroaching on the boundaries of human existence.Therefore, using transportation in such an environment is not as convenient as walking on foot.

If the place to go is too far away, the hunter who goes out will choose to start from the air first, and then carry out ground operations.

"Hurry up, everyone. There is only one piece of turf in this area that is the most dangerous. As long as we take precautions against other exotic plants and beasts, they won't cause us too much trouble." The one who spoke was the one leading the way Dai Hongyuan, at this moment, his state is quite strange, his eyes have become vertical pupils and are very sharp, and his hands are covered with tiny scales, which look very powerful.This state allows him to see farther and more clearly and to distinguish directions accurately, while his hands that are indestructible can help him open the way ahead.

"Captain Dai, are we going to bypass the grass?" Someone in the team asked.

"Of course, even if it only appears in the turf area of ​​the second-level danger zone, any adventure team is unwilling to encounter it. Our planned route originally bypassed it far away." Dai Hongyuan replied.

Xiao Yunchen and Li Ji walked in the middle of the team, they were weaker in fighting power, and another fourth-level hunter in the team was at the end of the team.

Xiao Yunchen shivered involuntarily when he heard what Dai Hongyuan said about the turf area. In fact, it is a kind of swamp, with dense grass growing on it to cover everything below. If you fall into it, the ordinary grass will separate quickly and then cover it again, causing people who fall into it to suffocate to death quickly, and some strange beasts will be ambushed under some grass areas, and the cooperation of the two can even more powerful Hunters are devoured.What is especially frightening is that some turf areas are active, and they will move around to actively hunt the creatures that enter the dangerous area. The swamp liquid under the turf will accelerate the decay of the creatures and provide nutrients for the turf to grow.

"Don't worry," Li Ji thought that Xiao Yunchen was scared, "Although the man-eating turf is scary, you can easily avoid people like us."

That's right, Xiao Yun smiled secretly, how could he forget that there are people in the team who are particularly friendly to the smell of grass and trees, precisely because the turf is composed of many grasses with the smell of exotic plants, even though its level is the lowest, it can't hold back It is too big, so it can be easily noticed by the manipulator, trainer and pharmacist, and it is precisely because of Li Ji that Captain Dai chooses such a relatively short route.

"I just remember how scary it is, but I have heard of many hunters with strong abilities being swallowed by the turf." Xiao Yun replied, and said that although he is different from the orcs who are good at speed, he is better than ordinary people. In terms of speed, it is still much faster, even if it is in danger, it can run away desperately.

"Brother Ziqing, can we really bypass it? I'm afraid." Ke Cen's voice came from behind, and Li Ji sneered disdainfully.

Although Xiao Yunchen is also not strong, but he is willing to work hard instead of blindly relying on others to protect him, and he tries his best to rush things to do in the team, so even if he couldn't see Du Ziqing's true face before, Li Ji treated him very well. There is no ill feeling.

But for Ke Cen, who is also weak, Li Ji is very disgusted. This kind of person is very arrogant because of his family's influence. He didn't come to their team for experience, but to attract men. , In his opinion, it is a complete hindrance.When Du Ziqing brought him here, Li Ji was the first to raise his hand to object, but after Du Ziqing promised to protect Ke Cen and reduce the share of this mission, the rest of the team agreed to bring Ke Cen. Others' objections are invalid.Of course, this was also the result of bringing people over just before departure. Obviously Du Ziqing's actions were also unpopular, and Li Ji was not optimistic that this team would continue to cooperate for a long time.

However, Du Ziqing comforted Ke Cen gently: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you, you have to believe in my strength, the turf appearing in the second-level danger zone is nothing to be afraid of, Cen Cen, just stay by my side."

"Brother Ziqing, you are the best." Ke Cen said while looking at Xiao Yunchen in front of him, with a smug look in his eyes, how can this bitch compare to him, he dares to snatch a man from him, hmph!

Du Ziqing glanced at Xiao Yunchen who was focused on the road ahead and didn't respond at all, and then looked at Ke Cen who trusted him wholeheartedly, feeling a little uncomfortable.

There was a thick tree pole lying on the road in front like a small hill. Behind Dai Hongyuan, he suddenly stretched out a pair of wings and flew into the air easily. We're going to stay in the third-level area overnight." He frowned, and there was an extra Ke Cen, but it slowed down everyone's speed.

Xiao Yunchen is very envious of Dai Hongyuan's half-beast form. He belongs to the stronger type of half-orcs, and he can transform into a pair of wings and a pair of animal claws.After reminding the people in the team, Dai Hongyuan flew over to help Li Ji, and Xiao Yunchen also activated the core energy in his body, showing his half-beast appearance, with a pair of pointed animal ears somewhat like fox ears , a fluffy tail appeared behind him, his body suddenly became much lighter, and he easily climbed the branches on the tree pole and jumped over.

After Li Ji fell to the ground, he kept looking at Xiao Yunchen with pity, because Xiao Yunchen put away his half-beast form after turning over, and his core could not provide much energy to maintain the half-beast form for a long time .Xiao Yunchen knows Li Ji's gaze very well. Although his half-beast form is not strong, his appearance is... quite attractive. He knows that some half-orcs with this form are willing to attach themselves to powerful half-orcs or They are orcs for people to play with, but he himself hates them very much, so he desperately trains himself to become stronger.

"It's really stingy, you don't even let me touch it." Li Ji muttered.

Xiao Yunchen knew that Li Ji had no malice, but he would not donate his ears and tail to satisfy his wish, because these two parts created by the beast are very sensitive, how could he let Li Ji do anything? .Deliberately ignoring Li Ji and chasing the person in front, suddenly a scream from behind made his feet tremble, he quickly turned around and took off the weapon on his back, a five-toed animal claw.His own attack power is not strong, so he can only start with weapons, and unlike other half-orcs and orcs, their body parts are the strongest attack weapons, and they don't need additional equipment.

"No, could it be turf? Such a strong breath can only be turf, but how could it suddenly appear here?" As soon as Li Ji finished speaking, he saw several vines springing out from the other side of the tree. Captain Dai As soon as the scream sounded, he spread his wings and flew over, and now he has grabbed Ke Cen and flew into the air, but Ke Cen in mid-air was still screaming, and Dai Hongyuan couldn't bear to shout: "Shut up!" Then quickly Flying back to this side, he threw Ke Cen down from mid-air. Regardless of Ke Cen's screaming, he quickly flew to the other side to help Du Ziqing who hadn't come yet. As the captain, he has the responsibility to protect every team member, even now Du Ziqing's actions had already annoyed him, and this trouble could obviously be easily avoided.

"Brother Ziqing! No! Brother Ziqing is still over there, send me there quickly, brother Ziqing is in danger..." Ke Cen, who fell to the ground, ignored his embarrassment, got up and yelled at the other half-orcs road.At this time, even if there were still people supporting Ke Cen for the sake of the Ke family in Pengcheng, they were a little displeased at the moment. What strength did Du Ziqing need him, a natural person with no strength, to help?The most powerful half-orcs in the two teams are there. If they can't deal with the sudden appearance of the turf, what's the difference between them running over and dying?What's more, there is Li Ji, a pharmacist, who needs their protection. Their team is not Ke Cen's one-man guard who is assigned by him.

"Shut up!" Li Ji roared uncontrollably, "What use could you be in the past? Can you save people or can you control the turf? You were just another burden in the past. Besides dragging others to death, you can What role will it play?" Others would be afraid of the Ke family, but Li Ji never needs it, and he has not taken a Ke family seriously, even if it is the head of the Ke family in a second-tier city.

"You—you dare to yell at me—" Ke Cen gasped and yelled in disbelief, which caused the other team members to frown and stop looking at him. What time did they focus on others yelling at him? .

Li Ji didn't have the patience to continue pestering him, staring at Dai Hongyuan's movement and sensing the position of the turf.

Xiao Yunchen looked at the emerald green snake-like rattan, which was made up of tangled grasses. When Dai Hongyuan swung his paw up and cut it at the waist, the severed rattan immediately turned into broken grass and splashed everywhere. At this moment, they are the most harmless green grass, floating powerlessly in the air, but when they fall back to the position where the turf is, they can quickly condense into new attacking vines, unless the source of power of the turf is destroyed , otherwise this process is endless, and the turf can also grow without limit and expand its area continuously.

But if you want to find the source of its power in the huge area of ​​turf and destroy it, for the turf that appears in the second-level danger zone in front of you, the difficulty is no less than dealing with five or six-level strange beasts, so for them As far as the team is concerned, most of them stay away.

Xiao Yunchen looked at Dai Hongyuan who was wrestling with the rattan, and was extremely surprised. In their previous life, they clearly did not touch the turf along the way, just as Dai Hongyuan said before, they bypassed the turf area, but everything they encountered now almost made them He suspects that the year he has experienced in the future is just a dream of his own, but the pain left by those incidents is too deep, and it is deeply imprinted in his soul, so that every time he thinks of it, he feels a kind of pain. The pain of bone erosion, I am afraid that his belief will be shaken at this moment.

Without much time for Xiao Yunchen to think about it, Li Ji stuffed a tube of potion into his hand and said: "Yun Chen, you run fast, sprinkle the powder in this bottle to slow down the grass. The hell."

"Okay, be careful." Xiao Yun took a deep breath, his body instinctively turned into a half-beast at the moment of crisis, and ran towards that direction after taking the medicine.

Later Li Ji shouted to Dai Hongyuan, telling him the extent of the turf and which direction to avoid.Xiao Yunchen, who was running close, saw that the thick tree trunk blocking their way had been half sunken, and there were obvious signs of corruption underneath, so he called out to Dai Hongyuan at such a fast speed: "Captain, be careful!" The potion in his hand was thrown out, and the pungent powder all over the sky fell on the turf extending towards them. The verdant grass on the edge immediately withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and any green grass that touched the powder The formed vines also quickly withered, disintegrated and collapsed, Dai Hongyuan took the opportunity to draw a figure from below and flew out.

"Hurry up, run forward quickly, don't stay here, leave here if you have anything to say!" Dai Honghong threw the person with his hands on the ground, and immediately shouted at the team, while he himself stayed behind from the original frontmost position. Sweep at the end to prevent the revived turf from sweeping again.
