Walking up the stairs, Zhou Qiang was shocked by the scene before him.

Just a flight of stairs, it's like two different worlds.

Everywhere you look, you see some exceptionally tall plants.

Most of them were plants that he couldn't recognize at all. Even the image recognition function on his personal smart terminal couldn't identify these plants.

Just as he was about to get closer, an extremely strange howl suddenly came from the depths.

"Woooooa ...

This sound was extremely penetrating. Even the Life Devourer, as a special existence, trembled for a moment under this sound.

You know, the Life Devourer didn't have this feeling when facing the sixth-level Death Butcher.

[Warning, the danger level of this place is beyond your personal strength, please consider carefully]

The system prompt sound suddenly rang, and Zhou Qiang was a little stunned.

The system did give some prompts when faced with some special situations before, but it seemed that there had never been a warning to remind him to get away from danger as quickly as possible.

Is it that the more he upgrades the system, the more perfect it becomes, or is it that the system is becoming more and more afraid of his death?

Moreover, he was very sure that the system's prompt was probably telling him that the being that made the sound was extremely powerful. After all, the system started to prompt at the moment the sound was emitted.

So, should we go in or not?

After just a moment's hesitation, Zhou Qiang's gaze became firm.

After struggling in this doomsday world for so long, he is no longer the cautious person he used to be.

He longs for great power and the ability to dominate others.

Obviously, at the current rate of progress, it would take a long time for him to find enough Abyss Dwellers and Death Butchers around the City of Skywatch to obtain their fragments and summon them.

Maybe he was affected by the threat from the invisible existence in the sky on the way here, or maybe he felt that the situation in Taohua Valley might endanger Tianwei City in the future.

Anyway, Zhou Qiang is determined to enter this valley today!

But after thinking about it, he changed the Life Eater back and spent one million to create a Crawler. He transferred his consciousness into the Crawler and set off again.

Although the Crawlers are certainly not as stealthy as the Life Devourers.

But it is cheap and fast, so I won’t feel bad if I lose it.

This time his goal was extremely clear, and he went straight into the jungle without any hesitation.

From some traces on the ground, it can be seen that there used to be a wide road here, but now it has been torn apart by the plants that have sprouted out.

As soon as he entered this jungle world, Zhou Qiang felt like he had entered Lilliput. When he looked up, he couldn't see the sky at all.

All the plants you see are over twenty meters tall, and most of them bloom. The colors of the flowers vary, but the colors are all extremely rich.

Rich to the point of being eerie.

At the moment, Zhou Qiang cannot sense any danger.

But such a strange jungle is definitely not something normal.

He approached a smaller tree and stretched out his claws to scratch it twice. His sharp claws easily pierced the bark, and some light red liquid flowed out.

But there was no other change in the tree.

Zhou Qiang shook his head.

It seems that he was wrong. How could he be so bold as to think that these plants were also zombies?

Maybe it was affected by the symbiotic zombie.

He turned and left with brisk steps, but did not notice that several tall trees behind him began to tremble, and then a scarlet eye slowly opened on the plant whose bark he had cut.

The eyeball stared straight at the direction where the crawler controlled by Zhou Qiang left, and slowly closed until it could no longer see the figure.

At the same time, the trembling trees around it all became quiet, as if nothing had happened.

There were tall trees like this everywhere along the way. If Zhou Qiang had not occasionally seen some traces of human existence, he would have thought that he had really entered a tropical jungle.

He had been walking around for more than ten minutes, and even deliberately made a lot of noise, but no zombies appeared.

This situation is also quite abnormal.

Finally, he simply ran wildly in this place, and the further he went in, the taller the plants became. It was no exaggeration to say that they were towering trees.

Just as he was looking around, his vision suddenly went dark, and before Zhou Qiang could react, he found himself back in his body.

A rare look of confusion appeared on his face.

Although the body he was using at that time was that of a crawler, he really didn't hear any movement, let alone see anything.

And what could be so fast?

Could it be that all the zombies in that woods are able to become invisible?

With a strong sense of unwillingness, Zhou Qiang decisively created another poisonous scorpion zombie.

After all, in comparison, the Scorpion is faster than the Tyrant.

After meeting Mu Xiaoyue and the others, Zhou Qiang controlled the scorpion and jumped off the building, running away.

"Huh? Didn't a crawler just come out?"

"It seems that things are not optimistic."

"Don't worry, the boss hasn't really taken action yet."

The three girls discussed in surprise for a while, and then continued cleaning with peace of mind.

After all, the fifth-level zombies around Zhou Qiang have not made any moves yet.

The scorpion was moving quite fast and soon entered the jungle again.

Zhou Qiang still remembered the route he had just taken. After all, he had been walking along the broken road on the ground when he was moving.

He wanted to take a look at the crawler's body, maybe he could find something through some traces.

When passing by several trees, Zhou Qiang keenly felt that something was wrong.

He turned his head and looked around in surprise, but he found nothing except the tall trees.

After walking a few meters forward, he suddenly turned around and rushed quickly to a thin tree not far away.

Although it is relatively thin, this tree is as thick as an adult's arm. It is exceptionally smooth, and even in this dim light it has a delicate feel.

Zhou Qiang looked at the ground and then at the tree, and was instantly startled.

He finally figured out what was wrong.

When he just came over, he cut a few holes on the tree, but now the tree is flat and there is nothing on it!

Even if something cleaned the cut it wouldn't be normal, at least it couldn't be so smooth.

So, there is something wrong with this tree!

Zhou Qiang held up two large clamps and began to dig the soil frantically.

The already broken concrete road surface could not withstand such force and a big hole was soon dug out.

What's strange is that some white whiskers began to appear about ten centimeters underground, which looked a bit like the rhizomes of plants, but the rhizomes of these plants are not so thin.

The deeper you dig, the darker the color of these whiskers becomes, turning into a light red.

Zhou Qiang started digging directly along the edge of the tree. He wanted to see what the roots of the tree looked like.

However, the roots of this tree were deeper than he had imagined. After digging more than a meter deep, he saw nothing except the thin roots that had turned dark red.

Zhou Qiang was so angry that he clamped the tree with his pliers. The tree broke cleanly under the iron clamp.

A faint, shrill scream rang in Zhou Qiang's ears, followed by the system's prompt sound.

[You get 1 manufacturing point! ]

???

Is this thing really a zombie?

Seeing the smelly fluids slowly flowing out from the middle of the broken tree, Zhou Qiang had to accept this somewhat absurd fact.

But how does a person become a tree?

Isn’t this mutation a little too outrageous?

They are completely two different systems.

He grasped the tree at its base with pliers and began to pull it outwards.

This time it was very easy and a large piece of thing was pulled out directly.

Zhou Qiang looked at the somewhat shriveled head in front of him and smacked his lips.

The root of the tree was the human head, and the entire head was covered with dense and fine whiskers, the same kind he saw when he was digging the soil just now.

But now they have all been pulled apart, and some red liquid is slowly flowing out.

The face of the human head was extremely hideous, but it was definitely dead at this moment.

Zhou Qiang slowly raised his head and looked at the boundless forest around him, and he shuddered.

Those disappeared people or zombies, he now finally knows where they are.

Every tree is a zombie, and the entire endless expanse is filled with zombies.

According to the thickness of these trees, he could easily distinguish their grades.

The thickness of the trees at the place where the crawler just died is more than half a meter, and they are at least the second or third level zombies.

So it is probably normal for a zombie tree of that level to be able to move.

He had just been guarding against dangers from other places and never thought that the danger came from around him.

So, the creeper died quickly.

He also overturned several surrounding trees and accidentally killed a level two zombie tree.

And he soon discovered that the only things he could get from killing these zombie trees were manufacturing points.

Even if you clear out the entire area around you, it will still be the same.

When he set out again, he was extremely alert. He was ready to try the conditions of the trees around the crawler's corpse.

If that doesn't work, he will consider using the Death Storm Disc's Death Storm to directly set the forest on fire.

Such a large area of ​​trees can be considered an income even if nothing other than manufacturing points can be obtained. Of course, the most important thing is that these things cannot be moved.

It's totally like shooting at a living target.

When Zhou Qiang could see the corpse of the crawler from a distance, he became extremely cautious in his movements.

From time to time, he turned his head to look around, wanting to see how these plants were moving.

But this time he wasn't attacked until he reached the crawler's body.

After checking the crawler's body, it was found that the fatal wound was indeed from the back of the neck. The entire back of the head was directly shattered.

A dark green leaf can be seen in the shattered brain.

It turned out to be the plants that did it.

He raised his head and glanced around, quickly identifying his target.

Not far away, on the branch of a plant, there was a pool of strange-colored liquid, the same color as the crawler's brain.

Zhou Qiang controlled the poisonous scorpion to slowly approach, and then a poisonous stinger shot out.

A violent explosion was heard, and a huge hole appeared in the center of the thick plant. The hissing sound of corrosion continued to be heard, and the "ho ho" sound rang out again.

Zhou Qiang looked down at the ground, somewhat doubtful.

All the zombies known so far, whether they are level one or level six, have never screamed like this before.

The Death Storm Butterfly didn't scream even after its intestines came out, so is it possible that these plant zombies really have thoughts?

He once again began to rumble and destroy things, digging the ground non-stop, and this time he was even more careful.

When he dug two meters down from the root of the tree he had broken, he finally saw the familiar shape of a human head.

It can be vaguely seen that the head belongs to a woman, but at this moment, the eyes are red and full of hatred as it looks at Zhou Qiang.

This expression doesn't look like that of a zombie without any emotions.

Zhou Qiang controlled the poisonous scorpion to pick up the plant zombie whose vitality was slightly stronger, and began to run out.

He wanted to see if he could communicate with this guy.

You know, this is a breakthrough!

In addition to the ordinary human zombie system, there is actually a plant zombie system!

He said that there is still a lot of unknowns in this world!

He gave the scorpion zombie an order to continue approaching him, and then his consciousness immediately returned to his body.

In order to ensure that the guy died on the way, he put on the lightning thorn armor and went to meet him.

Mu Xiaoyue and the other two behind them looked at each other in confusion.

Why does this situation seem a little bad?

Zhou Qiang drove at lightning speed all the way, making the Lightning Armor exert all its speed, and finally saw the poisonous scorpion within three minutes.

The scorpion's posture at this moment was somewhat funny, as if someone had planted a big tree on its head.

After giving himself a thick armor and quickly putting on the rhino armor, Zhou Qiang slowly approached the strange tree.

"Hello? Do you hear me?"

Although the system has already indicated that this thing is a zombie, because the creature's eyesight is so flexible, Zhou Qiang subconsciously asked this question.

But he didn't expect that he actually got a reply.
