Chapter 39 It's Coming

"Hey, Shuer, there's one more thing." Only Lin Jing seemed to have known about the situation. He looked at the diary with a relaxed expression as if nothing had happened, "I see you just translated these words and read them. I kept pointing my finger at it, but the last few lines didn’t seem to be read.”

"See for yourself, are those words written by humans?" Shuer said angrily, "If you can sort out the words that normal people can read, I can translate them."

"Hmm..." Looking at the messy text at the end of the diary, which was almost like a child's graffiti, Lin Jing showed a silly smile, "Hey, I don't understand."

"What a coincidence, I can't understand it either." Rolling his eyes, Shuer knocked on the table and said, "Okay, this diary was originally an unplanned gain. Now let's get back on the official track."

"As you can see, the exit is outside. As long as we touch the exit, we can go home." Shuer raised his voice and said loudly, "As I said before, after leaving this space, find life If the temple drives away the parasites, we will be considered completely safe.”

"Really?" Mia closed her eyes and was silent for a moment. A smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she said meaningfully, "Aren't you afraid of taking those things back and letting Parvatiga repeat the tragedy of this world?"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. Parvatiga is not as fragile as this world." Shuurhun replied nonchalantly, "There are so many strong people over there. It is not easy to deal with a group of plants. Even if we really bring If we go back, it will be difficult for them to do anything."

"That's right. If that's the case, then do whatever you want." Chao Er nodded slightly, Mia's smile was meaningful.

"Very good, I think everyone understands what I mean. If you don't understand, you can think about it slowly. What needs to be considered now is the follow-up actions. The most reasonable choice now is for everyone to dive into the escape point and return with the god-given metal. Counting gold coins, everything that happens here has nothing to do with us. Of course, this option has been eliminated just now. The guy who loves to steal is our teammate after all. If we really leave him alone, none of us can do this. Can’t do it.”

"Captain, there is one more question." Moback took out his backpack and suddenly muttered in a low voice, "That piece of god-given metal...that...is missing, it seems to be taken away by the idiot halfling when he left."

The loot was supposed to be carried by Shuer, but since Shuuer's bag was stuffed with the body of a frogman from the beginning, it was difficult to hold anything else, so Mobak was asked to carry the loot together. Unexpectedly, there is a problem.

"Can you say that again?"

"Uh, I won't talk anymore."

"Safu, make sure." Shuer said with a straight face, "make sure the breakaway point has not entered an unstable state."

"Absolutely not." Safu answered directly without testing, "I already tested it when I determined the breakaway point."

"This is interesting. If we rule out the possibility that Macajerun really wants to monopolize rare things, then these plants are really smart. They know how to ensure that we don't escape." Speaking of smart, Xiu Er deliberately emphasized his tone, and at the same time glared at everyone's face with a vicious look, "I even doubt whether they have any other conspiracy.

"Yeah, really smart, hahahaha." Using a tone that sounded like she was reading lines, she laughed dryly a few times. Militi sneered disdainfully, "It's just a bunch of weeds. I don't believe they have any ideas. Maybe it’s just a coincidence, you’re too sensitive.”

"Eh? Am I also a weed?"

"No, you are a tree."

"Stop arguing." Mentally giving a thumbs up to his teammates for their performance, Shuer continued to play his role, "No matter what the reason is, it seems that we must find Macajerun first before going home. This can be regarded as a consensus. Bar."

"Very good. Since everyone agrees, let me talk about the following arrangements."

"Because the God-given metal is suspected to have been taken away by Macajron, we have to be careful that he left the team on his own initiative. Now we have to find him on the one hand, and on the other hand, we have to prevent him from escaping here alone after we leave. Therefore, we need to act separately.”

"Mia, Mirity, and Moback, you three are in a team. Your mission is to stay here. Once you find Macajeren, control him immediately and send us a signal. We will rush back as soon as possible."

"No problem." Mia nodded.

"The most important thing to note is that given Mobak's experience this morning, plants are likely to have affected our senses. Mobak is temporarily affected by vision, but others may not be affected by sight, hearing, touch, or smell. It’s all possible.”

"In order to prevent plants from affecting your judgment by confusing perception, the three of you must pay attention to each other. Who sees something special that others cannot see, or who inexplicably talks to himself as if talking to others. Once you encounter this kind of situation, don't estimate each other's face and feelings, point it out directly, not only say it with your mouth, but also write it with a pen. Remember, don't be afraid of overreaction, the safer the better."

"Also, if, I mean if, someone's situation becomes more and more serious and may get out of control at any time, then don't hesitate to enter the escape point immediately."

"Huh?" Mia raised her eyebrows.

"Of course, before entering, send me a signal first. I think about it, well, just blow up the upper floor. The louder the sound, the better. After sending the signal, you will leave immediately. We will rush back within the time limit. Back to Parvatiga, you don’t have to wait for us, go directly to the nearby temple to dispel the parasitic state, and we will meet you.”

"Captain, Makajelun..."

Moback suddenly couldn't continue, because he saw that Xiuer was staring at him with very calm eyes, which seemed to have no emotion, but seemed to contain extremely complicated emotions.The two kept looking at each other in silence, and neither of them took the initiative to speak.After a long time, the usually reckless and noisy dwarf nodded and said in a low voice: "I understand, Captain, I believe in you, you will handle everything well."

"Thank you." Shuer breathed out, "Have you remembered all your tasks?"

The three of them nodded silently.

"Mia, I'll leave this to you."

"Well, no problem."

"You should have fully understood what I mean. Please control the situation."

"Of course, I know how to cooperate."

"Thank you for your hard work." Shuer lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Save, Moria, let's work in groups of three. The tasks of the three of them have been assigned. Now is our work."

"It's just to find Macajerun. He's so small and hard to find." Moria is the most qualified to say this. With a human body and a deer body, Lin Jing is at least two meters tall, taller than everyone else. There is a lot, if it turns into an oak tree, forget it, that would be a huge blow to Shuer's confidence.

"Well, that's for sure. The key is where to find it."

"You can always find traces of him if you wander around each floor." As one of the best hunters in the jungle, Lin Jing has an innate ability to track prey, let alone in this kind of environment without any interfering information. In the dead city, even in the densely populated city center, it is not easy to escape the sight of the forest spirit.

"Actually, it doesn't need to be that troublesome." Xiuer shook his head and said, "If there are no accidents, he should be on this floor, at most one floor up."

"Eh? Why?"

"Because it's the plants that control him." Soul's answer was unclear, but Moria understood it.

"You mean, this level is for studying plants, and it is also the birthplace of those things. It is the place they are most familiar with." Lin Jing pointed to the plant specimens outside and said, "So those plants will regard this as their own." nest?"

"Yes, it's very simple. When we first went to the first floor, we didn't meet those hundreds of frog people. We only met one lizard at most. This is enough to show that they usually don't pretend to die there. They must have their own Nest. If there is a nest, it can only be here. As for adding an upper floor, I am worried that one floor cannot accommodate all the institutions that study plants, so two floors of space are needed."

"Okay, let's search this level first according to your idea. Hee, it's been a long time since the three of us traveled together. Sasa, do you miss me? Do you want to leave it alone for you two..."

"Moria, you're annoying." The shy female swordsman blushed and punched Lin Jing's back a few times, making a heavy sound like a drum that made people sweat. It seemed that only Mo Only a gold-level powerhouse like Rhea or Shuer could restrain her from venting her shyness.Although she was shy, Saff had not forgotten the business and said uneasily, "What if you guessed wrong? What if he is not on the second floor?"

"No, Sasa, you don't understand. I won't guess wrong." Shuer narrowed his eyes and smiled strangely, "How about we make a bet. Wherever I say he is, he will definitely be there. , if you lose, hehe."

"Abnormal." Subconsciously covering the back of her thighs, Savo took a few steps back. She pulled Moriya and rushed out of the director's room with her head lowered, avoiding the teasing eyes of her teammates.

Only Shuer walked at the end. Before leaving, his eyes fell on the diary for the last time.

The diary remained open, with the last few lines of writing there.

"It is smarter and more cruel than anyone imagined, and everyone is at its mercy."

"It knows how to use conspiracy, it knows how to set up psychological traps, and it even knows how to induce humans to do what it wants."

"They're in the air ducts, they're everywhere, and we're not blocking them at all."

"It invaded this research station from the very beginning, but it has been hiding in the dark. It has been watching human beings struggling in despair, just like watching a show."

"Now, it's had enough fun, and it's time to end the show in person."

"We are finished, humanity is finished."

"It's here!"
