Chapter 622: Weird Plant
The apocalypse cleared the noise of mankind. The world was quiet most of the time.
Apart from the occasional smell of rotting corpses and blood, the air quality here was at the best state.
But Linhai City was too quiet.
Ye Zhongming and the other two stood in front of a road towards the city, and they had a weird feeling.
The road was covered in holes, and there were clear signs that Little Tiger mentioned those plants. There were similar holes on both sides of the buildings, which should also be their exits.
Purple or green liquid marks were on the walls of buildings and roads. Those things should be on Little Tigers body that splattered after he sliced those mutated plants.
The liquid shouldn't be poisonous based on the stone and soil situation.
But he always felt that the air had a stench.
This was not easy to pick up for someone like Ye Zhongming, who was used to living in the wild.
We entered from this place on the first day, but the attacks we faced were the strongest as there were too many mutated plants here. Little Tiger pointed at the road, Do you see that collapsed building? A 15-meter-long mutated plant appeared there, and that fellow forced us back.
Maybe he felt his description was insufficient to show its strength, so Little Tiger added.
Very strong.
He touched Yellow Balls smooth fur and squinted. He recalled things that happened in his last life. Shortly after, he confirmed that he hadnt heard of this. As for whether he had seen this type of mutated plant, he had to confirm it after he saw it.
Wait here, let me try. Ye Zhongming walked forward, but Xia Bai pulled him back.
Let me go.
She passed Ye Zhongming and stepped on the road in a blink.
Ye Zhongming didnt say anything and just focused.
When Xia Bai stepped on the path forward, Ye Zhongming felt the quiet road come alive.
This feeling was weird. It was as if nothing had changed, but he felt that something had woken up or was alerted.
Be careful!
Along with Ye Zhongmings voice, Xia Bai, who had taken the third step forward, jumped forward. The next second, a green mutated plant appeared from where she stood. Like Little Tiger mentioned, it had sharp teeth, and its dozen-meter-long leaves had clear veins.
These leaves were very nimble. When they charged from the ground, the splattering stone hit Xia Bai. Moreover, each leaf attacked differently. Some stabbed, some whipped from the side, and some tried to wrap from below.
Xia Bai didnt turn her head. The scythe in her hands sliced backward and numerous leaves were sliced into two. Liquid the same color as the leaves spurted on one side of the road.
But this wasnt over. Many mutated plants appeared along the entire street to attack Xia Bai. Some were green, and some were purple. The purple plants were longer, and the leaves were wider and stronger. They were higher level, and the green ones were weaker.
Based on what Ye Zhongming observed, the mutated plants had different abilities, and those with darker colors were stronger.
In a few dozen seconds, this street was covered by mutated plants. Thousands of them danced about to attack Xia Bai.
Little Tiger instinctively wanted to help, but Ye Zhongming pulled him back. Yellow Ball also roared at the plants and bared its fangs. With its master here, it had confidence, so it wanted to vent its frustration from before.
Xia Bai danced, and the scythe in her arms flew about. Each second, dozens of these mutated plants were sliced but didnt die. The parts connected to the ground continued to twist, and as long as Xia Bai entered their range, they would still attack.
Xia Bai, come back!
Ye Zhongming called out to Xia Bai, who was still heading in. Further forwards were the most dangerous part that Little Tiger mentioned. Their scouting for today was enough.
Xia Bai started to fight her way back. Half a minute later, she finally got rid of these plants and returned to Ye Zhongings side.
But her situation made Ye Zhongmings heart jump.
She was wearing silver equipment. She had a bloodline, job, and skills, and her weapon was silver. She even wore a purple mask.
Her combat strength was only weaker than Ye Zhongming; she could even fight with him.
Such a seven-star evolved was injured in just a minute!
Her injuries werent heavy, and she only had a few cuts, but for her to get injured in such a short time was something that even Ye Zhongming couldnt do.
There was obvious damage to her equipment. They werent corroded; they were being broken down.
They are absorbing my energy. Xia Bais first sentence shocked Ye Zhongming.
They will also absorb the energy of the other plants. Little Tiger pointed, and the two of them looked. They saw that they started to shrink after the plants didnt notice a target. But when they touched the leaves Xia Bai had sliced, they would sweep them up, and those leaves would wither and turn into powder.
Such a scene terrified everyone.
The absorption speed was so quick. Did this mean that if a person was swept up, even a seven-star evolved like XIa Bai would be sucked dry quickly?
Ye Zhongming thought about it solemnly. He took out Moon Edge, and after telling them to wait here, he rushed into the streets.
Like what Xia Bai faced, Ye Zhongming was instantly attacked. But he allowed the green leaf to wrap his arm. A few seconds later, he used his agility to dodge the other attacks. Finally, he sliced that leaf and retreated.
The leaf on his arm was squirming after losing connection to the roots.
