Chapter 476 478 Soul-Replenishing Pill

Thinking that this tree could be exchanged for 100,000 gold coins and that he had just obtained the weapons of the expedition team, Ning Qingyun decided to give it a try.

He continued walking towards the edge of the dead forest. He wanted to find a dead blood tree closest to the edge so that if he encountered any emergency, he could escape as quickly as possible.

As Ning Qingyun continued to explore, he discovered the vehicle left behind by the first expedition team. The members of the expedition team were also nowhere to be seen, and they took away everything they could use. Ning Qingyun found a three-branched dead blood tree closest to the edge of the dead forest.

Although this dead blood tree has three branches, its shape is smaller than those dead blood trees deep in the blood mist swamp, and it looks a little malnourished.

Ning Qingyun put a particularly strong steel wire rope around the lower end of the trunk near the root and pulled it outward with force. Perhaps the mud under the tree was not loose enough, and this tree was much heavier than the previous one. Ning Qingyun used all his strength to pull it up. Just when he felt the roots of the dead blood tree being shaken and the resistance under his hands becoming smaller, there was a "buzz" and countless red nematodes at the roots of the tree gushed out like a stream of water. Just looking at it made people's scalps numb. Ning Qingyun threw the bomb that he had prepared long ago into the swarm of insects. The sound of the bomb exploding was deafening even through his helmet. However, the bomb did not kill many red nematodes, and their number did not decrease. The densely packed red nematodes flew over like a red cloud. Ning Qingyun did not dare to be careless, and communicated with the black fire in his body. The black flame was cold and quiet, flying up and down around Ning Qingyun's body. The black fire, which was said to burn everything, was the trump card that supported him to go into the dangerous place alone.

The red nematodes that were safe and sound in the explosion were immediately burned to ashes when they came into contact with the black flames. Soon, a thick layer of ashes covered the ground. However, the number of red nematodes was too large, and there were always a few that escaped and kept hitting Ning Qingyun's robe and helmet. The robe was fine, but the helmet was gradually cracked by the impact. At the same time, the spiritual energy in Ning Qingyun's body was also rapidly consumed. What was worse was that after the helmet cracked, the outside air seeped in. There seemed to be a hallucinogenic substance in the air that could make people lose their sense of direction. Ning Qingyun could not tell where he was at this time.

Ning Qingyun held his breath, grabbed the rope and pulled hard, and the dead blood tree was finally uprooted. Densely packed red nematodes were attached to the roots. These red nematodes had no wings and were more than ten times larger than ordinary red nematodes. They were attached to the roots motionless, and were integrated with the root system of the dead blood tree. On the head of the red nematode, there was a pair of brown compound eyes composed of countless small eyes above the mouthparts. At this time, he was stared at by countless pairs of cold compound eyes, which made Ning Qingyun feel cold in his heart.

Without having time to think about it, he waved his hand and put the three-branched dead blood tree into the gem space. At this moment, red clouds swept in from the depths of the blood mist swamp. Ning Qingyun knew that it was a swarm of insects. He started the flying backpack, adjusted the speed of the flying backpack to the fastest mode, activated the Vajra Talisman, and flew towards the edge of the dead forest in his impression with a "swoosh". However, before he flew far, a brown root broke out of the ground and lashed towards Ning Qingyun like a whip. Ning Qingyun controlled the flying backpack to avoid it, and then countless roots broke out of the ground and pounced towards Ning Qingyun like a net.

Ning Qingyun gritted his teeth and called out the black fire in his body again, burning those roots to ashes, but these plants obviously didn't know what fear was, and they kept popping up as if endless. The spiritual energy in Ning Qingyun's body could no longer hold on. In desperation, he took out a bottle of spiritual replenishing pills from the gem space and swallowed the three pills in it all in one breath. This was a gift from Xianxian to him, and unlike other pills, which came in thirty or fifty bottles, this spiritual replenishing pill only came in one bottle.

Ning Qingyun had just taken the elixir for less than three minutes when he felt the spiritual energy in his meridians explode and expand. The flames of the black fire outside his body instantly jumped higher.

Ning Qingyun didn't expect that the effect of the Soul-Replenishing Pill was so good. It instantly restored half of the spiritual energy in his body. However, he did not dare to be careless. Xianxian had specifically mentioned in the introduction of the pill that although the Soul-Replenishing Pill could quickly replenish the body's spiritual energy, once the effectiveness of the pill was exhausted, the body would fall into a very tired state. This was a side effect caused by the pill overdrafting physical energy.

Ning Qingyun had been holding his breath, and the stimulation of the elixir made his consciousness particularly clear at this time. Under the cover of black fire, Ning Qingyun quickly left the dead forest and flew towards the armory.

After escaping from the dead forest and flying for more than half an hour, Ning Qingyun made sure that the red nematodes and the tree roots were not chasing him. He retracted the black fire into his body, closed the flying backpack, and landed.

At this time, it was already dark, and some monsters that liked to move around at night became active. In the empty and dark wilderness, all kinds of strange and eerie roars came one after another, which made people feel creepy.

Ning Qingyun put on a low-light night vision goggles and moved forward while referring to the map in his hand, while killing some blind monsters that bumped into him.

The rest of the journey was relatively smooth. Ning Qingyun soon followed the map and saw a remote factory built in the mountains. The armory he was looking for was in the basement of this factory.

After clearing out the monsters lurking in the factory building, Ning Qingyun found the door of the armory along the direction marked on the blueprint. The door was a very heavy lead door that was explosion-proof, bullet-proof and radiation-proof. There were three locks on the door, one layer of chain lock and two layers of combination locks. Ning Qingyun opened the locks one by one and opened the door. Fortunately, Ning Qingyun was strong enough, otherwise he would not be able to push the heavy door alone.

After entering the armory, Ning Qingyun activated the automatic power generation system inside the armory, locked the door, and then his legs went limp and he fell to the ground.

The power of the soul-replenishing elixir was exhausted, and the side effects of the elixir came on. All the strength in Ning Qingyun's body was drained away, and he felt as if his body was hollowed out, and he felt very uncomfortable.

Ning Qingyun turned on the power, and rows of neatly stacked containers appeared in front of him. Some of the containers had not yet had their lids closed, revealing the shiny machine guns inside.

This is just a small armory. Most of the weapons in it are common weapons such as bulletproof vests, machine guns, rifles, sniper rifles, bayonets, etc. There are not many thermobaric bombs, fuel-air explosive bombs, individual rocket launchers, and some other special bombs, which only account for about one-tenth of the weapons inventory. There are also more than a dozen individual fighting vehicles and two armored vehicles.

For the military, this kind of small arsenal is quite useless. After all, the weapons reserves in this small arsenal may not be enough to offset the casualties and weapons consumption that may result from dispatching troops.

However, Ning Qingyun was very satisfied looking at the spoils in front of him, and even the uncomfortable feeling in his body was relieved a lot.
