Chapter 43
Late comers, this is probably me, Hama, the director of the Provincial Plant Observatory of the Southeast Province of the Red Bay Republic, the dean of the Provincial Donggang Wild Plant Research Institute, and a first-level professor of the Republic, leaving words for the last time.

"Tsk, the bureaucracy that hits you is so different from the director who committed suicide. And don't you only know how to croak? How can you translate this name?"

"Shhhhhhh, Moria, stop making trouble." Lying on the deer's back, Savu tugged at the down on the Lin Jingdeer's body, "Shur needs to concentrate on translating the text."

"It hurts so much, isn't it? Hey, hey, don't pull out my hair, you're almost going to make me bald." Lin Jing smiled and avoided Saff's fingers, "Okay, okay, let's stop making trouble."

"The inexplicable name last time should be an ancient saying, which cannot be transliterated. This one can be." During the work, Shuer stopped laughing and continued to translate attentively. "Although I don't know what the Republic is, the position of the dean should be Not low, it seems that he had already estimated that he was going to die, so he left this record, well, it is similar to the director."

It has been nine years since the insect xx was successfully embedded in the thread safflower. In nine years, we successfully transformed the barren land of Donggang Peninsula into the current green island, and promoted the transformed thread safflower to the world. Every corner has won endless glory for the Republic.

xx's modified thread red flowers can affect all plants in the surrounding area through the spread of plant pheromones (whisper: What is this?), greatly enhancing their environmental adaptability and growth speed, allowing other plants to grow in extraordinary Grows rapidly over large areas in harsh environments.

In other words, as long as a thread-red flower is planted, the vegetation coverage area will change in units of days. Unfortunately, once the thread-red flower dies, the surrounding plants will quickly return to their original characteristics, so much so that they want to recover. For vegetation, it is necessary to plant red flowers in large quantities and over a large area.But even so, this transformation is of epoch-making significance. Latecomers, you may never understand how important this success is to our world. Only it can save the world's plant shortage.

At least, that's what the whole world thought at first, but unfortunately everyone was wrong.

Subsequently, hundreds of thousands of safflower researchers who were born around the world were wrong. No one thought that the environmental savior we had high hopes for was actually brewing a conspiracy to destroy the world.

"Eh? Why do I think he is trying to shirk responsibility?" Moria showed a blank expression again, "It seems that he keeps saying that it is not me who is wrong, but the world."

"He is just shirking responsibility. Not everyone can bear the responsibility of destroying the world." Shuer curled his lips and continued reading.

The red flower itself has extremely weak intelligence, which is equivalent to that of most plants. After the experiment was successful, there was no obvious change, so that everyone ignored the fact that it can not only affect the surrounding plants, but also be affected by the plants. Influence.

They can form a thinking network with the surrounding plants, just like the thread of xx (what is this?), evenly allocating the thinking work to each plant. The more plants around, the better their thinking ability will be. The stronger you are, the higher your intelligence is.

Not only that, they can also be related to each other, using them as nodes to form another network for higher-level thinking.Hundreds of millions of red flowers are connected around the world. Their intelligence has already surpassed ours and they have become the most advanced creatures on the planet.

"Hiss, the amount of information is a bit large." Shuer frowned, "It seems that not all plants have problems, the problem is only with this thing called red thread."

"Xuer, Xiuer." Safu tugged at the corner of Xiuer's clothes and said weakly, "This name gives me a bad association. The potted flower inside just now... seems to be red."

"Hehe, hehe, I know." Glancing at the re-closed secret room, Xiuer laughed a few times and shook his head, "I'll talk about it later."

They are allowed to be cultivated and spread by humans and cooperate with humans to restore the planet's ecology. If this continues, it can be considered a win-win outcome.

However, no one knew what was wrong, not anyone.All the red flowers are extremely hostile to us. They have been planning a counterattack against humans from beginning to end. They have always wanted to destroy humans.

However, they have been holding back, disguising themselves as having no intelligence to confuse humans. In fact, they have used these years to do the same work as us, affecting various plants around them and turning them into terrifying creatures. Parasitic killer.

In nine years, they have spread all over the world, and affected plants have also spread all over the world. They have been moving silently, without any warning. Humans have never known that, in fact, they have been parasitized by those terrifying killers. No one is excepted.

"Oh, I see, everyone has already been parasitized." The three of them looked at each other thoughtfully.

"It seems that everything happened earlier than expected. This is true for them, and it must be the same for us." Shuer nodded slowly, "I'm afraid we have already walked into a parasitic trap as soon as we entered. "

"We didn't notice it at all. No wonder these frogmen were caught off guard." Moria complained with a grimace, "I'm a plant. I'm on their side. Why should I even attack? It's so immoral."

"Hey, are you betraying me now? Where is your moral integrity?"

"Hurry up, translate quickly, whatever happens next, just let it disappear." Curiosity defeated everything, including Lin Jing's shame.Human beings have been blocked by lotus leaves, only seeing immediate benefits and ignoring the dangers from the water (whispering: What metaphor is this? Well, it’s a metaphor of a frog). When we discover the problem, everything It's too late, we've lost the ability to stop them, or even slow down their demise.

What first broke out was a large-scale suicide wave. Every day, tens of thousands of people choose to end their lives.Sociologists attribute the problem to excessive work pressure, medical scholars attribute the problem to mental fragility caused by modern lifestyle, and astronomers attribute the problem to the influence of tidal forces. No one thinks that the root of the problem is actually our body. every plant next to it.

When people discovered it, the world had lost a quarter of its population, and the remaining people finally woke up and planned to clear out Safflower on a large scale.It's a pity that this is simply a delusion, because the wave of suicides is just the beginning of the disaster.

The living people never knew why the victims chose to commit suicide. Later they found out, at least before they died, because the victims were already immersed in hallucinations.

They will affect the five senses of human beings. What you see, what you hear, what you smell, and what you touch are all what the parasite wants you to perceive.Every victim has actually experienced complete despair and died in despair. However, such experiences are illusory and only he knows it.

"This is really..." Although everyone was mentally prepared for Macajerun's previous performance, they still felt creepy at this time.

"It's still hard to imagine what it's like to live in a hallucination all day long." Saff's body was shaking a little. She didn't dare to say what she thought of, but she kept thinking over and over in her heart, what if it was herself?If he saw Shuer and Moria dying tragically in front of him, could he really hold on?The answer is probably not optimistic.

"Tsk, I'm afraid this isn't the scariest thing." Shuer clicked his tongue, "If nothing else happens, the frog man will be dead. It's really a terrifying method."

"Eh? Aren't they all dead?"

"Okay, I'm a little bit into the drama." He didn't explain what he thought of before saying this, because the explanation was already given later.

At that time, no one thought that plants could do more than induce human suicide. Some people had already thought about it but did not dare to say it. After all, it was a despairing fact.

After the wave of suicides, there was turmoil and killings all over the world. Everyone was killing people, and everyone was being killed.

You are attacked by someone around you, and you have to dodge and fight back. However, is someone really attacking you?Were the people killed by your counterattack really not innocent passers-by?

Everyone you trust may attack you without warning. Even if you do nothing, you never know what you have done in his eyes.In order to protect yourself, you have no choice but to hide alone and kill everyone who appears around you. Only in this way can you live longer, although only a little.

Billions of people fell into tragic cannibalism, society completely collapsed, trust no longer existed, all cities were filled with smoke and death, and everyone's hands were covered in blood.

"Sure enough, the frog people are dead, and any race would be dead." Lin Jing, who is naturally happy, sighed sadly, "The foundation stone has been broken, there is no way to save it."

"Ha." Xiure smiled numbly, his face a little ugly. He knew better than anyone else the wonder of trust, which can make people live or die.

"Pa", a hand suddenly grasped Xiure's hand. Just by the strength of the grip, you could guess that it was Saff's hand.

The fingers of the two hands were intertwined, and the female swordsman bit her lips without saying anything. She just held her hands, and the heat from her palms gradually made a smile appear on the corners of Xiure's tight mouth.

"I'm very grateful for your comfort. I also think it feels good and soft. But Sasa, if you pull me like this, I can't turn the page."

"Bullying people, bullying people." A standard Xiuer-style teasing that made the shy girl's head smoke and her face hot, and then...

"Dong dong dong".Sometimes the sound of a fist hitting the back sounds similar to the sound of a heavy hammer demolishing a wall. Of course, this cannot happen frequently, otherwise someone will die.

"Pfft, I vomited blood."
