On the tenth year of the natural disaster, I went to farm with me

Chapter 682: Aggressive Killing of Evolved Bamboo
After Xia Qing led the team to continue walking for another 300 meters, Liangzi issued another announcement on the intercom, "An evolved raptor with a wingspan of about four meters is hovering in the sky in a small area."

The evolved raptor began to circle in the air in a small area, indicating that it had discovered its prey and was preparing to attack.

The bird of prey with a wingspan of four meters had no difficulty capturing Tan Qi.

Xia Qing ordered, "Brother Yue, defend against the raptors, Tan Qi, follow Brother Yue closely, and the team continues to move forward."

"receive."

Tan Qi tried her best to respond calmly to the captain's orders like everyone else, quickly shortening the distance between herself and Uncle Yue, while Shi Du also shortened the distance between himself and his mother.

The bird of prey circled twice in the air, folded its wings and dived downward. Its target was the honey badger on a flat area without any tree cover 300 meters west of the human team.

The honey badger was not a speed evolver, and it was too late when it realized it was being targeted.

After being caught by the bird of prey, the honey badger screamed, twisted its body and bit the leg of the stinky bird that was holding it.

Just as this bird of prey, either an eagle or a vulture, was grabbing the honey pot and flapping its wings to take off, a leopard hiding in the dense forest suddenly jumped over, pinned it down, and bit its neck hard.

The raptor let out a scream, released the honey badger, and tried to drive away the leopard that was pressing on it with its claws and wings.

The honey badger that escaped death did not run away. Instead, it circled around the fighting birds of prey and leopard angrily, and bit the thigh of the bird that had just grabbed it.

After making sure the raptor couldn't escape, the leopard dragged it into the jungle, along with the honey badger that was biting the bird's leg.

Soon, scavenger birds began to gather overhead.

When Xia Qing discovered that the bird of prey did not take off again after falling, he knew that it had become the prey of the leopard. The area was temporarily safe, so he ordered the team to move on.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the human gathering team finally reached their target bamboo forest.

Half of this large bamboo forest belongs to Mountain No. 49, and the other half belongs to Mountain No. 52. The team's mission area today is the bamboo forest belonging to Mountain No. 52.

Thanks to the people in the Snake Killing Order safe zone for abandoning the northern evolution forest, the lords here have the opportunity to come out and dig bamboo shoots.

Once inside the bamboo forest, birds in the sky no longer pose a threat to humans. The dangers here mainly come from snakes, rats, and aggressive plants.

Xia Qing ordered the team to rest in the cleared area for fifteen minutes, with Yue Haiying and Liangzi on guard. She began to patrol the target bamboo forest and eliminate any danger.

The main targets of the elimination were the scorpion snake and other types of venomous snakes as well as the evolved bamboo rat. After a round, Xia Qing caught more than 30 venomous snakes and found no traces of the scorpion snake or the evolved bamboo rat.

The decrease in the number of bamboo rats is probably because when the Qinglong team captured the edible bamboo rats in the bamboo forest and kept them in captivity, they scared away the bamboo rat population here.

When turning to the northeast part of the bamboo forest, Xia Qing used his magnetic sense to capture an aggressive, murderous bamboo.

Last year, she followed Hu Zifeng's team to this bamboo forest twice to dig bamboo shoots. At that time, there were no aggressive and murderous plants here.

The Evolution Forest is indeed changing all the time.

Xia Qing put away his gun, held the machete in both hands and moved forward slowly, keeping an eye on the air toxin detector on his arm out of the corner of his eye.

She quickly locked onto the target and stopped two meters in front of the target plant. The bamboo was tender in color and should have grown up this year, but its height was already over 10 meters.

The air toxin detector shows a green light, indicating that the air here is free of toxins.

There was no damage to the nearby bamboo poles, indicating that the bamboo's offensive means were not to fire bamboo leaf darts. There was no dirt or insects stuck to the bamboo poles and leaves, indicating that it had not evolved sticky substances to form a symbiotic relationship with some insect-eating critters.

The soil here is soft, as if it has just been turned over, there are few grasses, and there is no rustling sound of insects around. Judging from this, the bamboo may be using its roots in the soil to launch an attack.

Xia Qing threw a small stone at the tree trunk, but its magnetic field did not change drastically. There were only a few small snakes on the tree, and he could handle them by himself.

So, she pressed the intercom button and issued an announcement, "An aggressive bamboo was found in the northeast of the bamboo forest. Clearance will begin in one minute. The team should put up iron umbrellas to guard against attacks from bamboo leaves and roots."

"Got it." Deputy Captain Yue Haiying immediately ordered the team members to take protective measures.

When the one minute was up, Captain Xia Qing raised his machete and rushed towards the aggressively evolving bamboo, chopping it with 60% of his strength.

"boom!"

The moment the machete collided with the bamboo pole, Xia Qing discovered that it was a hardness-evolved bamboo. But even though it was hardened, it couldn't stop the sharp chopping of the sixth-level strength evolver with a machete.

Xia Qing drew his knife to avoid the thin roots sticking out of the soil and used all his strength to cut them hard again.

"boom!"

"Crack!"

The bamboo, which had evolved in hardness and toughness, had a large number of fibrous roots protruding from the soil after Xia Qing cut off the part above the soil with two knives, but no new buds emerged from the cut end.

This method of attack was too childish. Xia Qing put away his machete and took out his pickaxe, stretched out the telescopic steel handle, dug out the main root of the bamboo, shook off the soil, and threw it on the bamboo pole.

The fibrous roots on the main root exploded, like a snake with steel spines. Although there was no sign of withering, its magnetic field slowly weakened and disappeared.

After taking samples of bamboo roots, soil and leaves, Xia Qing pressed the intercom to report the situation and continued his patrol.

By the time she reunited with her team members, the rest time was over.

The bamboo forest within the No. 52 Mountain Area was divided into three areas, and teams of ten people were divided into groups to search for edible bamboo shoots in each area.

Xia Qing, Qi Fu, Yuan Yan and Tan Qi are in one group, Liangzi, Shi Mu and Shi Du are in one group, and Yue Haiying, Yu Shou and Huo Lei are in one group.

In the past year, Shi Du and Yuan Yan obtained enough natural food in the territory, and their evolutionary abilities were improved. Shi Du was promoted from a level 4 power evolver to a level 5.5, and Yuan Yan was promoted from a level 2 to a level 3.5.

Perhaps because of her old age, Mother Shi’s power evolution level is still at two and a half levels and has not increased any further.

Qi Fu also did not improve and remained at level 3. This might be because his evolutionary ability was stimulated by infection with super-evolutionary bacteria and could not be improved by eating a large amount of nutritious natural food.

In order not to attract attention, the lords whose abilities had been improved did not publicize it to the outside world. They continued to farm honestly and quietly followed Xia Qing to improve their combat power and make money.

"There is one that has not shown its head yet!" Although Qi Fu was the lowest level of power evolution in the team, he was very good at finding bamboo shoots. He could find the young bamboo shoots buried underground by observing the soil and stepping on the ground.

"The harmful element content is 7‰, yellow light." After measuring the quality of the bamboo shoots, Qi Fu said happily, "This bamboo shoot weighs at least kilograms. Wife, come over and dig this."

"puff."

Yuan Yan walked over quickly but before she could move, she heard a noise above her head. She looked up and saw a snake that Xia Qing had chopped into two pieces with a long knife falling down. She was so scared that she shuddered, "Qi snake?"
