Brush the apocalypse with the living system

Chapter 20

Race against time all the way, everyone used two talisman papers, and finally reached the northern part of Shanghai.It's just that finding this forest is a huge project for those who are unfamiliar with the place.

Gu Anchao opened the contact device that he hadn't contacted for two days, "Yang Xiong?"

From the opposite side came the sound of signal interference "Ziz", mixed with a few indistinct words, "Damn... Lin Zi, you... Gao Lu, you fucking... you are so daring, don't you!"

Gu An's heart sank suddenly, and the several people looked at each other, and immediately broke their mouths, "After hearing my voice, report directly to the landmark buildings near where you are, we are nearby, hold on."

"Clock... slot!" Yang Xiong roared, and after hearing a swearing from the other side, there was a "click", which seemed to be the sound of the contactor being stepped on the sole of the foot.

Gu Anchao looked at the other four people, "Do you have any impression of this clock?"

"I remember that there is a clock tower on the Bund in Shanghai." Alan said.

After hearing this, Huzi quickly retorted, "But I remember that when I was on a mission last time, there wasn't any bullshit forest there!"

"Aren't parents allowed to come out!?" Alan retorted.

"It's so evil!" Hu Zi didn't care.

"You...!" Alan blushed, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Gu Anchao.

Gu Anchao said, "When it comes to clocks, the Bund is indeed the most representative one. It's better to look there first than to touch the blind ones."

Zhang Wenqian and his brother didn't express any opinions. This was their first time going down the mountain, and they didn't know where the Bund was, so don't expect them to put forward any meaningful opinions.

Zhang Wenqian silently took out three more Acceleration Talismans from his cuffs and handed them to the three, while he took out two spirit fruits and swallowed them one by one with his younger brother.The non-stop rush for the past few days, plus the spiritual power injected every time I make talismans, has already consumed too much, and I need to replenish it.

Gu Anchao didn't say much, he took it and put it by his side, feeling his body become lighter, he jumped forward and was a few meters away.

The Bund is located on the banks of the Huangpu River, and the bell tower stands there. From a distance, there is only one tower struggling to emerge from the dense branches and vines.

Gu Anchao and the other five stopped when they saw the tower and the woods from a distance. This place is full of weirdness.Not to mention when this plant appeared, at least when Gu Anchao came here on a mission a few years ago, there was no such forest.Just in the past few years, what kind of tree group can grow into this appearance?Furthermore, the branches of this tree are all bent inwards, and it looks like a big green ball from the outside, without even thinking about it, one can tell what kind of darkness it is inside.

"Boss, what do you think we should do?" Huzi was a little anxious, it's not that he was timid, it's just that he scored the goal, let alone saving people, he couldn't even see it, "How about we go in with a torch one by one? ?”

"Idiot!" As soon as Huzi finished speaking, Alang slapped it directly, "You won't be afraid of accidentally catching fire if you go in with a torch? Look at the density of this tree, maybe even a single spark can ignite Burn it straight away!"

Huzi's eyes lit up, "Hey! This is a good relationship! Why don't we just burn the tree down and go in?"

"Hehe, don't wait until the tree is burned down, Brother Yang and the others will be burned to death by you!" Alan snorted and laughed.

Huzi was speechless, so he could only look at Gu Anchao as if asking for help.

Gu Anchao's head got dizzy from the two people's quarrel, and he only said a few words to pay attention to the changes around him, and approached the big ball a few times.

"Hey boss, why are you so impatient!" Hu Zi patted his thigh and hurriedly chased after him.

The Zhang family brothers looked at each other and shrugged.In good conscience, they really didn't want to go in, but after following all the way here, it wouldn't be worthwhile not to go in.There is an old saying among their alchemists that abnormality is a monster, and where there is a monster, there must be a treasure.How can they let the great opportunity pass by?

Relying on the advantage of Yujian, the two of them looked down from a high place, and they could probably see some dots of light. It seemed that the ball was not as dark as they thought before.

The ball doesn't form a dense ball like it looks from a distance, but from a close view, some of the branches even extend outwards, which seems to be expanding.The branches of the trees are far apart, and the entanglement between the vines is not as entangled as one might guess. In fact, the space inside this ball is the same as the forest in the past, except for a slightly dim light.

Due to the vertical decrease of light, the closest to the upper layer is a large tree that loves the sun, and the bottom is a bush, close to the ground, and some shade-loving fruits, such as strawberries, grow close to the ground.

Gu Anchao and the others walked all the way and stepped on these fruits, the soles of their feet were sticky, and they couldn't help feeling irritable.

"Damn it! What the hell is this place!" Huzi was the first to lose his composure.Once inside, not to mention the dark environment, even the few people in the company did not communicate with each other from time to time as usual, and the atmosphere was oppressive.How could this make him, a straightforward and carefree man from the Northeast, bear it?He couldn't help but hit a nearby big tree with his fist.

The big tree just shook slightly when it was smashed, but Huzi was affected by the reaction force after smashing the big tree, and even bounced his whole body backwards.Huzi is a power-type power user at the peak of the sixth level. The strength of a punch, for example, is equivalent to the strength that can pierce a super dense steel plate...

Gu Anchao felt that something bad was going to happen when Hu Zi threw his fist. What he was worried about was that the tree would go crazy. Even though it was honestly rooted in the ground at this time, it was impossible to be hit by Hu Zi like that. The rhizomes are whipped up.Unexpectedly, after receiving such a punch, the tree still stood upright, and even a few leaves did not fall off, but the tiger was pushed back a few times by the reaction force of the punch.

"What kind of tree is this!? Is it made of titanium alloy?!" Hu Zi stood up, patted his clothes, and opened his mouth wide in astonishment.

Zhang Wenqian put his hand on the tree, and the light blue light slowly flowed from the palm of the tree into the tree, and followed the tree's lines to the roots.

"This tree is weird." After a while, Zhang Wenqian withdrew his hand and said, "I can't feel the vitality of this tree at all. In other words, this tree is a dead thing."

"Then this tree is rotten, right? A rotten tree can still block Huzi's punch?" Alang curled his lips.

"No," Zhang Wenqian shook his head. "Even a rotten tree has the same flow of vitality. This tree is different. Even..." He paused, then put his hand on another tree to feel it for a while, and said, "Even other trees are like this. I'm afraid these plants here are not real plants."

Gu Anchao continued to analyze, "In other words, the plants here were deliberately arranged in this way? If this is where Yang Xiong and the others hid, then the forest should still look normal at first. After going deep into the forest, it slowly formed a spherical shape from the outside. That person is trying to trap us here."

"I looked at the top of this ball tree before, and saw that the outside of it has not been completely closed, and a few branches have even spread out. What's going on?" Zhang Wenyun asked.

"This..." Gu Anchao paused, he hadn't figured this out either.

"Boss..." With a trembling voice, Alang tugged at the corner of his boss's clothes, pointing to a big tree not far away, "Maybe it's because of this...?"

Gu Anchao looked along the other's fingers, his pupils dilated involuntarily!

There was a man hanging from that tree, who seemed to be still alive, with his chest heaving slightly.But if you look carefully, you will find that the ups and downs are not due to breathing, they are clearly vines!I saw the vines inserted into the limbs and chest of the man one after another. The green and transparent branches undulated slightly as if they were breathing. The man's blood flowed in the vines as if being sucked, and flowed into the tree along the vines. The ground should provide nutrients for the roots of the tree.

"I'm afraid this is the reason why those branches are extending outward." Zhang Wenqian sighed.

"Is this like a spider catching its prey..." Zhang Wenyun shook his body, getting goosebumps from being disgusted by the sight.

Even a strong man like Huzi couldn't help but rubbed his arms and said "Bah bah" a few times, "This tree didn't roll me up for rice just now, it's really shit luck."

"Hmph, if you continue to be so reckless, sooner or later you will be used as fertilizer." Alan sarcastically waved his hand over his head again, "Are you going to save me? Is the baby okay?"

"I know. It's really long-winded." Huzi said indifferently, avoiding Alang's hand.

"You too, don't take A Lang's words at ease." Gu Anchao taught him a lesson, the personalities of his two subordinates just complemented each other.

Huzi is sloppy, straightforward and straightforward, and is the most likely to offend people; while Alang is more sensitive, often can think of several meanings for a sentence, and has a delicate mind.It is also because of this that every time he arranges manpower for a mission, he always deliberately puts these two people together so that they can help each other.

Maybe it's a long-term love, or maybe it's just brotherly love, anyway, Alang really cares about Huzi, but it's a pity that Huzi is a blockhead, and his kindness to him is like a mother-in-law, so he resents him very much.Every time Alang puts forward some suggestions, he can't help but refute a few words, and those who come and go again and again have become enemies of joy.As long as the people in the team saw these two people appearing together, they would know that there was another good show to be had.

"Got it." Hu Zi curled his lips in dissatisfaction, the boss in his heart knew he was partial to that brat Alan.

"Since the outstretched branches are used for hunting, why are there still a few big openings that have not been closed? Is it convenient for us to travel?" Seeing that the topic was about to be transferred to the home, Zhang Wenyun hurried back, feeling I really have a long way to go.

"That's probably because the energy required by this thing is not enough, and it's too late to seal all the gaps." Alang blushed a little when the boss said that, and hurriedly followed Zhang Wenyun's words.

"That is to say, once this ghost thing sucks a few more people, we will be trapped here after the energy is replenished?!" Huzi exclaimed.

Alang glanced at the other party coolly, "I didn't expect you to have some brains."

Gu Anchao said, "So, we have to find Yang Xiong and his group in the shortest possible time and take them out." After speaking, he glanced at the Zhang brothers again, "If you want to quit now, I won't stop you After all, you have no obligation to work for me. You refused to accept this jade pendant before, but this time you have to accept it anyway." He took out the jade pendant again.

"I haven't said that I want to quit, why are you in such a hurry to drive me and my brother away?" Zhang Wenyun smiled and pushed the jade pendant back, "There is an old saying in our alchemist world, abnormality is a demon, and there is a demon." There must be a treasure. Even if there is a risk, it is worth exploring, isn't it?"

"That's right." Zhang Wenqian nodded, "Brother Gu, you should take this jade pendant back. We don't lend a helping hand to repay you. Brother Gu is looking down on us."

"Of course not." After listening to Gu Anchao, he took back the jade pendant consciously, and if he persisted, he would cross the line, which is equivalent to slapping someone in the face.

"Let's go soon, time waits for no one."
