Plant Invasion [End Times]

Chapter 88 Base City

Shen Kuo huddled on the co-pilot, listening to Jin Shao's words, the uneasiness in his heart that was suppressed by Jin Shao gradually surfaced, and overlapped with Jin Shao's words—his worries became reality.

He tugged at the corner of the blanket covering his knees, and murmured unconsciously: "Jin Shao, you said before, keep me safe..."

Jin Shao also had some worries in his heart, but he was worried about his brother's current situation.The moderate faction has lost the battle, can his brother's research continue?

When he turned his head and saw Shen Kuo's distraught appearance, he still couldn't laugh or cry: "I said, Mr. Village Chief, what are you worried about? You are a key person, no matter who is in power in the base city, you can't control it." Come on you. How they fight is their business, but it doesn't mean they don't care about the overall situation. You are the overall situation, and no matter how cruel they are, they dare not do anything to you."

"And no matter what the situation in the base city was before, when we go back and talk about things, everything will change."

The car slid steadily into the distance, Jin Shao unconsciously patted Shen Kuo's back vigorously: "Don't worry, nothing is more important than the overall situation, and those things will not affect you."

Shen Kuo was in pain from his two slaps, frowned and moved his butt to the side with difficulty, and said forbearance: "I know, I know, don't take pictures, my liver is all taken out by you."

"Ah?" Jin Shao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, wondering if his strength had grown again in the past two days.

He glanced at Shen Kuo twice, and saw that although he was frowning and his face was a little pale from last night's exhaustion, he was relieved and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know what's going on, Recently, I seem to have a lot of strength, and I can’t control it.”

"Can't control it? When did it start? Why didn't you say it before?" Shen Kuo didn't bother with him about it, he just felt uneasy, so he subconsciously said a few words.

"Er..." Jin Shao thought for a while, "It must have been the two days since we started on the road. It may also be because there was no place in the village where I could open up my strength, so I didn't feel it at the time. At least I was It was only after we left the village that we gradually realized this.

Didn't we pass that paddy field after we left the village?I found that my strength seemed a bit too much when I was fighting with the rice.When I was there before, I was injured because I was entangled by a few rice plants and couldn't break free, but this time when you were entangled, I seemed to tear them off easily. "

He paused, and then said: "There is also my ability. In addition to the steady increase in the range of invisibility, the strength of my air manipulation seems to have also increased. Although I can break the iron rod that locks the door in front of me, but yesterday It seemed to be easier when I opened the lock late, and it broke as soon as I tried hard, and I think I still have some strength left. Didn’t I collapse a little building just now? My feeling at the time was that if I really tried my best, the building I can directly collapse half of the floors of the building."

Shen Kuo took a small breath and didn't hide his surprise: "How did you improve so fast!!"

He still remembers very clearly that when Jin Shao first entered the village and confessed to him, he would only condense a part of the air to accelerate and use it as a bullet... Now, he can be a fucking demolition team now.

Shen Kuo thought about the miserable situation he suffered every day when he went to a different world to decorate living things, and when he compared it with Jin Shao, he suddenly felt bad.

"That..." He said with a bit of resentment, "You didn't hide it from me, did you?"

"..." Jin Shao had nothing to say.

"Okay, I see." Shen Kuo also knew that he was a lemon.

"Let's not talk about that, let's just talk about your problems." He wisely changed the subject.

"Is there only a change in strength? What about other aspects? For example, agility? Hearing? And that, cough, is there any change in vision?" At the end, Shen Kuo looked at him a little nervously.

Under Shen Kuo's gaze, Jin Shao thought about it seriously, and then slowly said, "I feel like..."

"How?" Shen Kuo widened his eyes.

"No more." Jin Shao said honestly.

Shen Kuo finally felt better in his heart, thinking that if he took the lead in everything so easily, he would have no choice but to die of sourness.

"That's good...I mean, it's pretty good." Shen Kuo felt a little guilty under Jin Shao's candid gaze.

Am I not a villain like this?He thought, Jin Shao is strong because he is strong, and he should be happy that Jin Shao has become stronger so quickly... No, I'm still jealous.

"I just forgot to mention that my eyesight seems to have improved, especially in night vision. I used to become blind at night, but now I can see things normally, seeing things much clearer than usual. At night, I can even see your expression. I thought it was just my hallucination, but with the fact that your strength has become stronger for comparison, I knew it."

In the end, he made a concluding announcement, with a bit of lightness: "It seems that our bodies have indeed been strengthened to a certain extent, but you are in terms of strength, while I am in terms of vision."

"Yeah." Jin Shao lowered his head slightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, without reminding him of the fact that he had looked at him several times last night.

Shen Kuo didn't pay attention to his small movements, he was happy for a while, then his expression changed suddenly, then he took out a pod and put it in the air.

Under Shen Kuo's heavy gaze, the pod didn't automatically float like him as soon as he let go of it many times before, but wobbled a few times in mid-air, and then slowly floated towards him .

He retracted the pod, his face darkened.

"Jin Shao!" he said suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Jin Shao stared ahead, driving the car intently.

Although it is said that people with high skills are bold, Jin Shao is not a fool.All woods represent great danger, and even if it is determined that it is the dormancy time of plants, one cannot let down one's vigilance.If he dared to rely on himself to be absent-minded because he was invisible, and accidentally overturned the car and crashed into this poplar forest, he would really be courting death.

"The existence of the pod has deepened again, and the distance has narrowed again." Shen Kuo said seriously, frowning together.

"Yeah." There was no unnecessary change on Jin Shao's face, he just stepped on the accelerator, and the speed of the car accelerated a bit.

Jin Shao didn't say much, so what can he say at this time?All he had was a deep sense of powerlessness.

Shen Kuo is fighting. He is so afraid of death and so cautious. Now he haunts the battlefield of plants and zombies every day. His head hurts so much that he wants to take away more plant soldiers. From the beginning to the end, he can only watch from the side. ,do nothing.

The car moved quickly on the not-so-flat road, and the 50-mile road came to an end amidst the rapid retreat of the poplar trees outside the window.

A wide open space appeared in the front view.

In a place where there is no prophet like Grandpa Shen, Shen Kuo understands what such a wide open space means.The scorched black soil silently tells many stories. It may not only be sprinkled with strong herbicides and the juice of dead plants, but also the blood of countless soldiers who opened up the isolation zone.

Even now, even if he is as strong as Jin Shao, he dare not say that he can easily deal with a poplar tree.And in those days when there were no special abilities, to completely kill giant mutated plants like poplars could only be done by the soldiers who protected the people.Even if the plants hadn't mutated to be as powerful as they are now, the casualties of soldiers at that time should not be a small number.

Standing with his back facing the prostrate giant poplar forest, Shen Kuo looked at the black land in silence for a long time, until Jin Shao's hand patted his shoulder.

Jin Shao had a long memory this time, so he deliberately reduced the force and put it on gently.

"Don't think too much, this kind of thing can't be changed by your grandfather talking about it everywhere. If you haven't seen it with your own eyes or faced it in person, who would dare to believe that the world will really become like this? Your grandfather has tried his best. He A hero."

Shen Kuo looked back at him, the confusion in his eyes gradually receding.

"You have saved a lot of people, and you will save more people in the future. Grandpa Shen should be relieved if he knows. Let's go." Jin Shao didn't turn stealth again, but strode forward.

At the end of the black scorched earth, a huge fortress stands quietly there, like a solid reef in the sea, no matter how the sea beats, it can stand firmly until the end of time.

Perhaps the wall around the city should no longer be called the wall, it should be called: the city wall.

The trench outside the base city as the isolation zone was also dug extremely deep and wide, more than three meters wide and tens of meters deep.

It must be said that such a deep ditch would be a big project to be dug around this big city.But according to Jin Shao, the ditch was dug in only four days.

The base city has dispatched hundreds of engineering teams with excavators to rush to work day and night. Not far away, there are soldiers bombarding the jungle. The normal construction was to dig out the base city from the huge network of plant roots before a large number of plant roots completely ruled the ground.

Shen Kuo can barely try to jump in the two-meter-wide ditch, but the three-meter-wide ditch is...

As a human being, you should learn to accept your fate.

Shen Kuo stood in front of the ditch for a few seconds, then went around silently to walk across the bridge.

And Jin Shao was already standing opposite him with ease, waiting for him.

There is still a distance of about 50 meters from the city wall, and it is already within the range of ordinary guns. If the people in the city want to, any gun can shoot them into a sieve.But Shen Kuo was not worried, because Jin Shao had already made their special gestures in the direction of the city when he first came out of the woods.

There is a watchtower on the city wall, and Shen Kuo can see the faint figure on it.As for the black tubes protruding from the city wall, no matter how stupid Shen Kuo was, he could guess that they were long-range shooting guns.As soon as he saw that thing, he faintly felt that he was being watched by the god of death, but seeing Jin Shao's stability, he was inexplicably relieved.

Running back to Jin Shao's side again, Shen Kuo breathed a sigh of relief.

Jin Shao asked him to cross the bridge by himself, but he was actually a little scared in his heart.Jin Shao couldn't see it, but he could see it clearly, the muzzles of the black holes on the city wall were all pointing here.He was afraid that the people in the base city would only recognize Jin Shao and not him, and if they shot him, he would be wronged.

But Jin Shao let him cross the bridge with a natural face, and then jumped directly to the opposite side with a few accelerations.Presumably he was used to dancing directly, and Shen Kuo was too embarrassed to say that he was afraid, so he could only endure the fear in his heart and ran over quickly.

"What should we do next? Shall we ask them to open the door for us?" Shen Kuo's eyes vigilantly scanned the muzzles of those cannons one by one, and leaned closer to Jin Shao without any trace.

"No need." Jin Shao pulled him up and walked forward freely, "I faxed the people inside yesterday, and someone will open the door for us."

"Oh." Shen Kuo was dragged forward obediently by him, and after taking two steps, he suddenly realized.

"When did you take the fax? Where did you take it? Why don't I know?" Shen Kuo stopped.

"The matter is urgent, and the people inside are still waiting for us. Let's talk as we walk." Jin Shao pulled him to move on, but Shen Kuo suddenly pulled his hand out of his hand.

"You kept it from me." Declarative sentence.

"You lied to me." His eyes were slightly red.
