Zerg in the crystal wall system world

Chapter 27 Normal and Distorted

The Juggernaut didn't think about it for too long.

After the carapace of the king worm was completely hardened and the air bag was filled with helium, he began to control the king worm to fly into the sky.

The speed of the king worm is relatively slow, but that is also compared with the various high-speed fighters and fast maneuvering flying units of the interstellar era.From the fact that it can fly from flat ground to space with its own power, it can be known that no matter how slow this thing is, it can't slow down much.

After a while, the king worm passed through the clouds in the sky and continued to fly upwards.

As the altitude continues to rise, the atmosphere around the king worm gradually begins to change. The king worm's senses may clearly perceive that the atmosphere here contains some kind of energy that is different from psionic energy. As the energy density increases, so does the energy density.

When the king worm flew to a certain height, it was like entering an energy storm. The violent hurricane made it extremely difficult for the king worm to maintain its balance. The wind seemed to be mixed with blades, leaving streaks on the king worm's carapace. scratches.

Accompanied by continuous lightning, the arc connecting the clouds here and there almost turned the overlord into a luminous object.

And as the king worm continues to climb, these anomalies continue to strengthen along with the increase in energy density.

The king worm finally stopped.

Further upwards, the king worm's carapace will be damaged.

By this time, the king worm was already hundreds of kilometers away from the ground. On most rocky planets, although it would not reach space, it would have reached the outer atmosphere.But at this time, the air pressure around the king worm, let alone dropped, was even higher than the ground, and the sky was still blue.

Then look down at the ground.

A dark green flat continent stretches all around without the slightest arc, and even the "edge of the world" can be vaguely seen.

After giving the king worm an order to return, the master's consciousness left the king worm's body.

The master on the throne couldn't help but lean back: the sky is round and the earth is round...

Creep border.

The man with the pointed ear hood stopped at the edge of the creep area.

In front of his leather boots, jagged hyphae were spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the grass and trees were withered wherever they passed.

He took off his hood, revealing a head of green and tender long hair, carefully looking at the hyphae:

This is a fungus?No, it seems to have the ability to swallow sunlight and carbon dioxide, but does not release oxygen; the microscopic tissue has the characteristics of fungal mycelium; but it can expand and contract like muscle fibers... It is a strange life form, but there is no doubt What is-

The hooded man leaned over, releasing a green light from his hands:
This is a creature with extremely vigorous vitality, and there is no sign of corruption—it can grow into this virtue without corruption. It seems that it is an epic species that ran out of the Great Labyrinth.

It seems that this mighty mushroom has caused fear in the forest.

In previous expeditions, he had also seen a few mushroom forests as dense as forests, but none of them were as exaggerated as here.

But they are not the paranoid high elves who pursue the original "pure ecology", they will not put themselves in a judgment position higher than nature.

As long as there is no distortion and corruption, and the safety of the mother tree is not disturbed, then everything is the best arrangement of nature.

Speaking of mother trees...

The hooded man picked up his water bag from his waist, which was made of specially treated leaves.

After taking two sips and pouring it all out, the hooded man stirred up some creep tissue with a dagger made of obsidian hanging on his waist, sealed it into the water bag, and used green light to maintain its vitality:
This kind of life form, which is extremely vigorous and able to adapt to the environment in the sun, may be able to help the mother tree.

Ok?
As soon as the water bag was sealed, the man in the hood seemed to sense something. He stretched out his hand to scrape away the soil, and squeezed out a beetle whose body was entwined with several tiny hyphae.

He could feel that the body of this beetle was undergoing drastic changes, its behavior was being controlled, and its body began to be enslaved by the creep in some way.

But his expression still didn't fluctuate much:

Powerful fungi are always inseparable from infection. He alone knows more than a dozen fungi that can control the behavior of insects. He has even seen mooshrooms in the mushroom forest, a kind of cow that is covered with mushrooms. .

It is said that in the human world, a fungus that hibernates in insects in winter and grows rod-shaped bacilli in summer is used as a miracle medicine.

As long as it is not corrupt, not spiritually depraved, it is the same as what happens in nature every day-the jungle preys on the weak.

Fixing the water bag on his waist again, the hooded man stepped into the range of the creep and began to run on the creep.

But the creep neither supported his steps nor slowed him down, and didn't even do the most basic "sticky feet".

The figure of the man in the hood seemed to be blown by a ray of breeze, without causing any reaction from the creep.

This is also one of the reasons why he doesn't care much about the abnormalities here. At present, it is only the phagocytosis ability and infection ability shown by the creep, which can't help him, nor can it help the real top of the food chain in this forest. ——Those powerful epic beasts.

The hooded man walked around the creep area, observing:
The fungal lifeform seems to be able to change its flexibility at will, and its internal honeycomb structure allows it to be hard or soft.Some structures protruding from the creep would also give him a sense of voyeurism, and seemed to have the function of perception.

Infected organisms will have a large number of tumors and limbs similar to arthropods. It is speculated that this fungus should be highly symbiotic with certain insect-type organisms, or the insect-type organisms are their final hosts.

Infected creatures are greatly increased in strength and show signs of extreme aggression, photophobia, and sluggishness.It seems that the fungus will provide them with nutrients, the infected will no longer eat, and animals with different feeding habits will coexist peacefully...

Um?This is?

The hooded man's calm face was finally moved:

Heart tree!It's a heart tree!And it is an extremely powerful heart tree!
This plant, which is only found in areas of exceptional vitality and evolved from the most vigorous trees, is a natural node for the forces of nature in an area.

Because the hydrology, landforms, ecology, and species of each area are different, each heart tree is unique.

Through the heart tree, you can improve your natural way again, and even let yourself easily enter the state of "heart and spirit"!
How lucky this is, I will carry out this long tour on a whim.

Speeding down at high speed, he entered the core area of ​​the creep blanket in a short while - the area covered by the green glow of the strange tree...
