Chapter 164: Pumpkin hits someone
Just as everyone was talking, Gu Zhicheng also walked up to a big pumpkin.
He also felt that the energy fluctuations of the mutated pumpkins here seemed to have become more violent.
For some reason, he felt vaguely uneasy.
"Everyone must be careful with the pumpkins here. Pick them in groups of five."
"OK."
"We know."
As soon as Gu Zhicheng finished speaking, everyone nearby responded.
Just when everyone took out various knives and prepared to chop the pumpkin stem, the pumpkin vine in front of them suddenly moved.
“Rustle!”
A thick pumpkin vine suddenly stretched out its stems and leaves, rose high, and swung wildly in the air, trying to hit the people standing nearby.
"careful!"
Gu Zhicheng was the first to notice the change here. He stretched out his hand and threw it forward. A rapidly "expanding" bean sprout quickly entangled the crazy pumpkin vine.
The person who was frightened by the sudden attack and fell to the ground quickly got up and ran back.
The people nearby also reacted. They formed a group of five, pulled the people nearby, and began to retreat quickly together.
But before they left, the pumpkin vines that looked very quiet nearby suddenly rose up high again.
The pumpkin vines twisted wildly, twisting hard in the air, and because of the loud noise, they broke many pumpkins.
The pumpkins that everyone had originally needed to chop with knives now rolled twice on the ground, leaving a lot of them.
Just when everyone was looking at the pumpkin vines that looked like octopus tentacles in fear, Gu Zhicheng felt the energy fluctuations nearby and felt that the mutation level of these pumpkins was not very high and he could deal with them.
While he used his wood power to intercept the pumpkin vines that wanted to attack people, he shouted, "Quick, take these pumpkins away!"
We have all experienced similar situations many times.
After hearing what Gu Zhicheng said, everyone knew that he could deal with these pumpkin vines, and they all calmed down again.
Everyone began to cooperate again, covering each other, allowing the two space-based psychics to harvest the pumpkins.
More often than not, they were trying to attract the pumpkin vines' attention, or using their supernatural powers to block the pumpkin vines' attacks.
After the space-powered people collected all the pumpkins on the ground, some people began to turn their attention to the pumpkins still hanging on the vines.
"Boss, now that we are here, why not pick the pumpkins hanging there?"
"You just complained that the pumpkin was unpalatable, why do you want it now?"
In between the fights, the two men exchanged some banter, and soon, Gu Zhicheng said, “No, we have to leave quickly.”
The fighting here is too noisy, so it’s almost time to harvest all the pumpkins.
If you continue to fight, it will easily attract large animals and plants nearby.
Seeing that Gu Zhicheng said this, everyone did not delay and started to retreat.
A group of 20 people began to retreat.
Just when everyone was about to get away from the pumpkin vines' attack range, the pebbles on the ground suddenly began to tremble slightly.
“Boom!”
“Boom boom!”
The ground shook slightly, and trees in the distance broke and fell to the ground.
The pumpkin vines, which were originally twisting randomly, suddenly became quiet, and then began to twist even more violently.
Everyone who noticed this scene felt something was wrong and couldn't help but slow down their pace.
Soon, a monster that looked like a stone man "squeezed" out from the woods ahead.
"What is that..."
Someone stopped and looked up slightly, and saw a huge gibbon with a slightly rotten body and covered with pustules, pushing down tall trees and walking towards this direction.
“Whoosh…bang!”
The gibbon walked over, looked down at them, exhaled, and then raised his arms and dropped them heavily to the ground.
The ground was hit hard, making a dull sound and shaking slightly.
After a series of crashing sounds, its other long arm was also raised high, and was about to fall again.
“Run!”
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly, and soon everyone started panicking.
However, they still remembered to stay in formation while running.
Gu Zhicheng and several other psychics stayed behind to cover the rear.
Gu Zhicheng used his wood-related ability again, causing the plant to rise high up, trying to trap its arms again.
Thick branches wrapped around the gibbon's arms, binding it tightly together.
"call……"
The gibbon was trapped and exhaled heavily again. The vines on its arms that had just been tied tightly together were torn apart forcefully.
The vines that bound the gibbon were torn off, and soon, the psychic next to him used his supernatural power again.
A wall of earth quickly surrounded the gibbon, preventing it from moving forward.
Next to it, one long "flying knife" after another flew quickly towards the gibbon.
Gold-type psychics can usually control metal materials to attack. As long as they carry some knives with them, they can carry out long-range attacks and can also recover the attacking knives.
The earth wall surrounded the gibbon, and the "flying knife" attacked the gibbon's eyes directly.
"call!"
“Bang!”
Before the flying knife got close to the gibbon's eyes, it shook its body and its skin suddenly seemed to change color, as if it had become "hard".
The "flying knives" stabbed towards the gibbon, but he dodged it by tilting his head, and none of the knives hit his eyes. However, many of them still hit other parts of his body.
However, when these quickly flying knives hit the gibbon, it was as if they had hit an iron wall, making a metallic collision sound, and then they fell to the ground one after another.
"How could it be..."
The remaining psychics saw this scene and realized that something was wrong.
Why is the body of this mutant gibbon so tough? If this continues, all their attacks will be useless.
Seeing that you can’t win, you can only run away.
However, if you want to escape, the route must be taken into consideration, otherwise, it is easy to lead the enemy to their "base camp".
Fortunately, there are some "underground sidewalks" nearby. They can run underground first, change direction and return to the ground, and then run back.
Several people exchanged glances and easily understood each other's meaning.
Finally, Gu Zhicheng nodded, and everyone began to retreat to the nearest "underground walkway".
"call!"
The gibbon exhaled heavily again, then raised his head and screamed.
“Ouch!”
A huge sound wave began to spread in all directions.
The mutant creatures nearby, hearing this sound wave, became even more agitated as if they had found their target.
Soon, one mutant creature after another, large and small, appeared nearby, directly blocking the group's escape route.
"It's over..."
