Seeing that the survivors behind them had stopped their earlier restlessness, Shen Nanxing and Jiang Nian'an stopped paying attention to them.
Start to focus on eating.
After finishing her meal, Jiang Nian'an walked to the roadside, rinsed the used bowls, chopsticks, and pots briefly, and then threw them into the dishwasher in her room.
Looking at the dishwasher that had started working, Jiang Nian'an curled the corners of her mouth into a smile.
Ah, technology liberates our hands!
Thank you to the person who invented the dishwasher!
Shen Nanxing then put the power bank and picnic mat he had taken out earlier back into the trunk.
After calling Xiao Yin and Da Wang back, they continued driving forward.
The survivors following behind them quickly put away their food and hurriedly drove after them.
The car quickly exited the highway and, after many twists and turns, arrived at a road overgrown with various plants.
To be precise, it is a narrow passage sandwiched between two mountains.
The road is a little over eight meters wide, with some old trees on both sides that are too big for several adults to hug.
Behind the tree, at the foot of the mountain, grow some thick, long vines, like giant pythons, winding around the mountain and slowly crawling.
It has already mutated.
Further up, there are continuous, dense forests, lush and verdant, blocking out the sun, with the constant sounds of animal roars, insect chirps, and bird calls.
It was quite a lively and bustling scene.
The entire road was shrouded in darkness by the plants, with countless insects and small mutated plants moving about within it.
"This should be the forest path that the man mentioned earlier."
Jiang Nian'an closed her eyes and carefully sensed it.
There is a lot of wood-type energy ahead, some strong and some weak.
"Brother Chen, I want the crystal nucleus from the roots of the mutated plant."
Jiang Nian'an spoke frankly, her eyes gleaming with longing for the crystal nuclei in the roots of the mutated plants.
"no problem!"
Shen Nanxing agreed without asking why, and then parked the car on the side of the road.
My girlfriend's requests must be fulfilled!
"Little Silver, you stay here and watch the carriage. Your Majesty, come with us!"
Shen Nanxing turned around and gave instructions to Xiao Yin and the King.
'Hiss'
Little Silver nodded, climbed from the car window onto the roof, and looked around warily.
The king then got off the car with the two men and began climbing the forest path ahead.
Why aren't they leaving?
What are they trying to do?
"Did something happen up ahead?"
The survivors following behind the two men looked on in surprise and doubt, and they all stopped and began to discuss among themselves.
However, they only dared to watch from afar and did not dare to go forward to investigate the situation in detail.
'swish swish'
The moment Jiang Nian'an, Shen Nanxing, and the Great King stepped into the forest path, the mutated creatures nearby pounced on them.
'call--'
The king leaped forward swiftly, spewing forth fierce flames.
It burned all the mutated flowers, plants, and insects that rushed at it.
One by one, crystal-clear nuclei emerged from their ashes.
'Chirp chirp'
'Buzz'
Upon sensing the presence of fire, many mutated creatures either shuffled away on their toes or flapped their wings, turning tail and fleeing.
"Trying to escape? Dream on!"
Shen Nanxing's gaze sharpened as countless electric snakes darted across the ground, turning the mutated plants into charred remains.
This was the first time An'an had ever asked him for something, how could he possibly bear to disappoint her...?
Therefore, all these mutated plants must be left for him!!
Jiang Nian'an also threw out countless green leaves, cutting the fleeing mutated plants at the roots.
The next second, the emerald leaves transformed into countless green threads.
She stored the crystal cores from the roots of Shen Nanxing, the Great King, and the mutated plants she had killed into her spatial storage.
"Sigh, their crystal nuclei are so small~"
The energy contained in the crystal cores of hundreds of mutated plants is equivalent to the energy contained in five level-one zombie crystal cores.
Jiang Nian'an puffed out her cheeks, somewhat dissatisfied.
Upon hearing this, Shen Nanxing's gaze fell upon a thick, long vine.
Although the mutated plants we just killed were easy to kill and there were many of them, the crystal nuclei at their roots were only the size of millet grains, practically nonexistent.
But these mutated plants with strong attack power are different.
An An will definitely like its crystal core.
A glint of light flashed in Shen Nanxing's eyes, and with an aura of lightning emanating from him, he strode towards the mutated vine.
Sensing danger, the mutated vine suddenly sped up its slow crawling motion.
'puff'
The mutated vine pulled its roots out of the soil and began to climb up the mountain.
With lightning speed, Shen Nanxing lunged forward and grabbed the roots of the mutated vine tightly with both hands.
A crystal core the size of a peanut appeared in front of Shen Nanxing.
He suddenly exerted force with his right hand, stabbing it directly into the mutated vine's body and firmly holding it in place.
He grabbed its crystal core with his left hand and pulled hard.
'Sizzle'
The mutated vine struggled wildly, and its head, which was more than ten meters away, snapped back, bringing with it more than a dozen branch vines that seemed to fall from the sky, attacking Shen Nanxing.
Lightning flashed on Shen Nanxing's right hand, and a strong current shot straight up from the roots of the mutated vine.
With a bang, the mutated vine exploded, and green sap splashed everywhere.
With a forceful pull, Shen Nanxing ripped the crystal core off, then quickly retreated, avoiding the sticky liquid.
He put the crystal core into his pocket, then glanced at Jiang Nian'an.
Jiang Nian'an had already walked to the other side of the road.
She sensed a powerful wood-type energy.
The king followed closely behind her.
Seeing that the king was following, Shen Nanxing felt relieved and continued walking towards another mutated vine.
Based on her senses, Jiang Nian'an eventually discovered that the energy was emanating from a crooked willow tree.
The tree is about six meters tall, with no leaves on its branches, only 5-centimeter-long barbs.
The barbs were stained dark red with dried blood, emitting a strong, bloody smell.
Beneath the tree lay piles of white bones.
There were humans, zombies, and other mutated creatures.
'Swish swish!'
The crooked willow tree suddenly trembled after it sensed Jiang Nian'an walking towards it.
Wood-type ability users prefer the crystal cores of mutated plants.
Conversely, mutated creatures also crave wood-type ability users.
At this moment, the crooked willow tree became excited after realizing that the wood-type energy in Jiang Nian'an's body was more abundant than the energy in the bodies of the wood-type ability users it had tasted before.
The willow branches, covered in barbs, swayed wildly, constantly lashing out towards Jiang Nian'an.
The strong smell of blood emanated from the barbs, along with a unique, pleasant fragrance.
Jiang Nian'an frowned subconsciously, her intuition telling her that something was wrong with the fragrance.
The king behind her was already starting to feel dizzy.
'Hiss'
【Master, the fragrance emanating from this tree is making me dizzy, please stay away from it!】
Jiang Nian'an's expression hardened, and she flicked out a vine, leading the king to retreat quickly.
