The voice of "thought" rang in the puppeteer's mind, but the body embedded in the tree trunk in front of him did not change at all.
The puppeteer was instinctively frightened for a moment, but then she felt it was very reasonable. After all, she knew that this was not the real world, but just a fictional space formed by the consciousness of these thinking plants.
The thought flashed through her mind, and she spoke her answer without opening her mouth:
"How are you?"
While confirming the other party's condition, she looked around. As expected, there were several familiar figures on the surrounding trees, including "Bomber", "Veam", "Gecko" and others.
Only Nian and the bomber could be seen clearly. Most of the rest of the human bodies had been absorbed by the trees. There was no trace of the human figures embedded in the trees in the distance, as if they had completely merged into one.
Seeing this, the puppeteer instantly connected everything in front of him with what he had experienced in the past hour.
The figures of Bomberman and Nian are still there, so the trees outside only use the abilities of the remaining three people.
Before this, no other humans had come here, so it was reasonable that the trees here only had the abilities of those three people.
"Not very good."
Nian's answer echoed through the puppeteer's mind, making her realize that she had just asked a stupid question.
Since Nian's body, or spirit, is here, then who will return to Hope City to receive the honor?
Who made those counterfeits disappear collectively in the lounge?
The puppeteer did not think about the question any further, for she was afraid she would come to some terrible conclusion.
Maybe... in that disappearance, the apparent victim was actually the potential perpetrator, and the mysterious murderer who caused all this might be a good guy.
"I don't have much time to stay awake. I need you to take out some important information."
"you say."
The puppeteer's expression tensed instantly, and he planned to remember every word the other party said next.
“Be careful of tall grass, be careful of wilderness, be careful of biofield erosion.”
"good."
“Don’t explore rashly before making targeted preparations, otherwise it… He will become stronger and stronger.
"Our memories have been corrupted, and many secrets have been forced to be revealed. We need to make the intelligence we know invalid as soon as possible."
"Okay, what else?"
"It's nothing, it's time for you to leave."
"Why?"
"It, or rather He, is about to discover it!"
Nian's tone suddenly became a little excited.
"Who? Who do you mean?"
"Everything, I hope everything outside the city!"
Nian seemed to be in some kind of pain. He endured the absorption of the vines on his body and said in a low voice:
"Outside the city of hope, there is only one life. Everything is it. Don't be deceived and don't believe it rashly."
Suddenly, a roar came from the depths of the illusory forest.
The roar sounded like that of a ferocious beast or a newborn baby.
“Leave now!”
"I can't do that."
After receiving all the information, the puppeteer tried to break away again, but found that his ability in that aspect was still blocked.
The "Nian" on the tree trunk was no longer talking. Instead, a noisy voice came from a nearby tree:
"Can you do it?"
The puppeteer turned around and saw the superpower "Bomberman" who was known for his bad temper.
"Go quickly, any method will do, don't let our persistence go to waste, remember, it will be afraid too! It is not invincible!"
The roar from the distance was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that it was about to reach my ears.
The puppeteer turned around and climbed up the tree where "Nian" was. Her physical fitness was maintained very well through long-term exercise. She climbed to the branch seven or eight meters above the ground in a few steps.
She folded her arms across her chest, closed her eyes, and leapt backwards.
In the feeling of weightlessness, the puppeteer's perspective changed.
---
“Boom!”
"ah!"
Inside the life support cabin, the puppeteer's body twitched violently, and his head raised and hit the observation window with a dull sound.
Seeing the familiar small window in front of her, she quickly confirmed her current situation.
The life support cabin is fine, as for my teammates...
"Don't come over here!"
The puppeteer heard Beacon's shout.
She quickly opened the hatch of the life support module and got out, and found that at the edge of the forest, several of her teammates were fighting with branches.
When Shi Jin awakened to the second energy level, he greatly enhanced the team's ability to withstand pressure.
Under the premise that Wang Xiao only had half of his strength left and the Puppet Master was offline on the spot, she frequently used her abilities to save her teammates from danger.
And now that the puppeteer has successfully connected, then...
It doesn't help the situation at all.
Her only ability at this moment was to return to that fictional space and try to obtain more information.
But after what she had just experienced, she felt that it would be difficult for her to get out alive this time.
There was some white light in the sky, but the entire battlefield was still very dim.
Wang Xiao's body was too badly injured. Although he still had the ability to regenerate, the recovery ability of his wounds had exceeded the speed of regeneration of his broken limbs, making him look like a comatose Geodude.
These plants have initially mastered the ability of quicksand, and the ground will soften from time to time, catching people off guard.
It was under such circumstances that the five people retreated little by little.
Seeing the Puppet Master land again, everyone quickly abandoned the life support cabin and began to retreat with all their strength.
The dry grass and branches quickly devoured the life-support capsules that were fed to their mouths, but this did not satisfy their appetite.
Half of Wang Xiao's body hanging on the tree has disappeared. It is unknown whether it was lost in the chaotic battlefield or has become a delicious meal for some plant individual.
Anyway, these guys kept chasing after the two life-support capsules, one new and one old, as if they had sensed that there was something extremely tempting and delicious in the team.
“Swish!”
A sound of breaking air was heard, and a rapidly swinging thorn branch appeared diagonally above the few people.
The surface of this thick thorn was covered with sharp thorns, and it swept towards this side like a whip swung by someone.
“Puff.”
Several sounds of things piercing through skin and flesh were heard. After a few people dodged the attack, the thorny brambles pierced into the body of the unconscious Wang Xiao.
The branch was quickly tightened, causing the beacon on the other end to stagger.
"help!"
At the beacon's call, several people quickly gathered together.
In the wilderness at dawn, at the junction of wasteland and woods, living plants are playing tug-of-war with four humans, and the rope is half a human.
Well, that makes sense.
"How come these guys are so strong?"
Xin Beacon's face turned red at this time. She used all her strength and even heard the sound of dislocation coming from Wang Xiao's body, but she was still no match for the thorn branch.
