Chapter 81 Living Thorns
General Beng led the way, and arrived within a few tens of meters.

At this time, Miao Buhua's fluff had all exploded, and she would stop and observe carefully after walking a few steps. Lu Yao didn't feel uncomfortable, but she had to be careful of those thorns.

"crash"

When Huoguang entered the malicious range, mutations occurred suddenly.

With General Beng as the center, a large number of thorns broke out from the soil. At first they wanted to surround General Beng, but they only touched General Beng's torch, and they all retreated as if they were frightened.

The entire mountain forest seemed to be shaken by an earthquake, and the dust rolled up by the thorns scattered all over the forest. In just a short while, the entire forest became blurred.

"They're...really afraid of fire."

General Beng's originally tense expression slowed down at this moment. Looking at the fleeing thorns, he couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

Although it knew the result, it still broke out in a cold sweat when it faced such a huge forest of thorns.

Looking at the overwhelming thorn bushes, Lu Yao also felt his scalp tingling.

There are too many, as far as I can see, the thorns in front of me seem to come alive, scrambling to wriggle and retreat, the big ones are as thick as his waist, and the small ones are comparable to hemp ropes, densely packed, like a snake's nest .

But it's even scarier than the snake's nest.

No matter how big or small, these thorns are covered with barbs, and the sharp thorns are shining coldly.

"Crack."

A muffled sound sounded, and General Beng pulled out a hatchet from nowhere, and when he saw a vine that he couldn't dodge, he chopped it down with one blow.

The thorn broke into two in an instant, and then, a liquid that smelled like blood came out from the broken part of the thorn.

"This"

Seeing this scene, General Beng was stunned.

It is impossible for normal plants, even plant players with the possibility of evolution, to have blood in their bodies, but these thorns actually bleed?

"Is it alive?"

Lu Yao lowered his head and sniffed, an unexplainable smell came straight into his nostrils, and Lu Yao couldn't help but open his mouth.

Stretching out the tiger's paw, he groped left and right on the still struggling thorns. Finally, he couldn't help it, and slapped down on the part with few barbs.

With just one shot, Lu Yao was absolutely wrong in an instant.

These thorns are actually soft?

After thinking for a while, he slapped the barb hard again, only to hear a "pop", the thorn was like a bursting insect, and a blood column was splashed out. Lu Yao turned his head and avoided it.

General Beng also noticed something was wrong, and went down with a few more hatchets, and after cutting off a thorn as thick as his arm, he put down the hatchet and touched the thorn.

It was completely the soft touch of some kind of creature, which immediately spread from the palm to the mind.

"It's definitely not a thorn."

General Beng was taken aback for a moment, and immediately reacted.

Although thorns are composed of branches, they are also wood. Although they are not as hard as stones, they are not soft either.

These thorns not only have blood in their bodies, but their bodies are also as soft as living things. These are living things!
"It's so weird meow? What the hell is this meow?"

At this time, Miao Buhua also caught a thorn. The thorn seemed to want to escape, but Miao Buhua was extremely fast. As soon as she stretched out her claws, she grabbed it and then played with the thorn as if she was playing with a snake. .

"Don't be too playful, these thorns are afraid of fire, if there is no fire, you will be rolled up, those barbs are still lethal, be careful."

General Beng scolded, then turned around and raised the torch, looking deep into the forest.

"These thorns all go in one direction, follow the thorns directly."

After finishing speaking, General Beng took a step forward and walked straight forward.

Lu Yao stretched out his claws, hooked Meowbuhua, dragged it away, and leaned towards it together.

As the mountain forest got deeper and deeper, the malice in the forest became more and more intense. When it came to the edge of a cliff, the malice almost became real.

And here, even if General Beng's perception is low, he still finds something is wrong.

After the escaping bush came here, it leaped and jumped down without hesitation. There were rustling sounds in the dark night, but they were far away and could not be heard clearly.

"Can you see how deep it is down there?"

General Beng took a light with a torch, and the visibility was only a few meters, so he had to ask Lu Yao for help.

Lu Yao approached the cliff and stretched out his head to explore the edge of the cliff. When he saw the sight in front of him clearly, he froze there.

This is a depression, not a cliff.A long slope descends all the way from the top of the mountain to the bottom.

And in the center of the bottom, a lawn the size of a football field appeared in the eyes. Countless thorns crowded together, undulating in the center of the lawn, and in the middle of the thorns, there was a lawn piled up by pieces of bluestone. There is a bluestone platform tens of meters high. Above the bluestone platform, a flag engraved with thorns is waving in the wind on the pedestal.

"what is this?"

Lu Yao's scalp was a little numb. Whether it was the ups and downs of thorns or the flags on the base, he felt extremely strange.

Why are there so many thorns here, and what is the flag above the thorns?
Seeing this, Lu Yao hurriedly informed General Beng of what he had discovered, and explained it to the mother tree by the way.

After a while, the mother tree's reply was long overdue.

"This seems to be some kind of prop used by human players. Have you found any traces of humans?"

Player props?banner?
The bluestone platform is indeed a trace made artificially, including the flag, if there are human players here.
Thinking of this, Lu Yao's heart tightened, and he quickly raised his head to look around.

There are only living figures of thorns in sight, and there are no traces of other creatures at all.

After observing carefully for a moment, Lu Yao could only shake his head.

"Nothing was found, only thorns, countless living thorns."

After discovering that these thorns were alive, Lu Yao gave these monsters the name of living thorns as a substitute.

Unknown creature, alive, grows like a thorn.

"Can you get rid of them?"

After hearing Lu Yao say that no trace of other creatures was found, the mother tree seemed a little disappointed, but still asked.

"That's too much."

The mother tree couldn't see the number of living thorns, so Lu Yao had to explain it again.

As far as the eye can see, there are all living thorns. Even if Lu Yao can kill dozens of hundreds of thorns, there are more living thorns, and Yan can drown him.

"You need to grow up as soon as possible. This kind of alien organism that has been bred on a large scale and has the weakness of fear of fire is actually very easy to solve."

What you said is easy, how can I, a tiger, beat these living thorns.

He is naturally not afraid of one-on-one, but there are tens of thousands of them, so what if he is afraid of fire, since he can't make fire, it is not obvious that he is endangering him.

Lu Yao was silent.

"Oh, it's really troublesome. Even the mastermind can't be found, and others have to deal with the aftermath."

"General Beng, stop using wine bottles, do you want to set the whole mountain on fire?"

Lu Yao tilted his head, and found that General Beng had already taken out a few wine bottles at this time, apparently intending to ignite the baijiu and throw it into the valley.

"So, let me come. Although the quantity is a little less, it is still good as nourishment."
