Lin Qiao glanced at the woman; she was pregnant, and her belly was quite large.
Lin Qiao asked her softly, "Are you feeling alright?"
The woman shook her head and gave a bitter smile. "I don't even know whose child it is..."
"And even if he/she is born, he/she won't be my child. He/she will be taken away directly... If it's a girl, I'll raise her to be the next breeding machine; if it's a boy, he/she will be eaten by that monster!"
"I hate it, I want to abort the child, but I can't..." The woman covered her face and squatted down in despair.
Lin Qiao felt a mix of emotions; the place they were in was truly terrifying.
This should be a large hall in the building, capable of accommodating many people, but it is dark and gloomy, with not a single ray of sunlight able to penetrate. The most terrifying thing is that the windows are surrounded by dense, dark green vines.
No one dared to approach the window, because someone outside tried to escape through it, only to have a vine pierce their heart and die instantly.
The corpse was torn into pieces by the vines in front of everyone, and then the vines rolled away and "ate" it...
This is a classic case of making an example of someone.
It is a very intelligent monster.
Lin Qiao doesn't know how to escape now. She can only try to stay with the kittens and ensure her own safety first.
None of the kittens dared to transform into human form.
The vines love to eat children, finding their skin and flesh tender, making them delicious and refreshing to eat.
It tastes much better than some adults and the elderly.
Lin Qiao also specifically told them to hide well behind her.
Although she did not awaken any superpowers, she also did not know any martial arts.
But—
Lin Qiao had learned to use a gun from Bo Shiwu. She was also with Qiao Yin, whose special ability was to create a space, from which he could take out a gun at any time.
Therefore, the possibility of self-defense here is still quite high.
It's about escaping—
That would be risky.
They might become the first to stick their necks out and get killed by that vine monster in no time.
Lin Qiao naturally wouldn't make any rash moves. She carefully observed the people around her and found that apart from the muscular man who was the so-called "controller," the others were mostly elderly, weak, sick, disabled, and women with little offensive power.
There are no men who are even slightly strong. Even if there are, they can only be suppressed by muscular men and become "breeding pigs" to engage in various breeding activities.
Lin Qiaoguang felt disgusted and devastated when she saw this horrific phenomenon.
It's hard to imagine how desperate the people living here must be, unable to see any hope or light!
They live in constant fear of death, like pigs kept in a pen, waiting to be eaten by vines when they're ready to be mature...
Lin Qiao's arms broke out in goosebumps; she couldn't just sit there and wait to die!
We need to think of a way...
Some of the kittens have special abilities, and even if they are not, their strength is much greater than that of an adult, and they can definitely take down a few men.
However, they couldn't alert the monster, because the vine monster seemed quite intelligent, even knowing how to produce its own food reserves. Lin Qiao even suspected that the monster might be a human in disguise!
He is very likely a plant-based ability user!
Only a dark and intelligent human being could commit such a heinous act!
Right now.
Qiao He had already led a group of people close to the lair of the vine monsters.
Qiao He distributed a lot of guns and ammunition to Ken's followers, and they did not encounter any vines causing trouble along the way.
Even those people were incredibly shocked.
"Why aren't they coming out? The vines were quite active when we first appeared!"
"Yeah, that's really strange... Could it be that the vines are still resting?"
"No way, it feels more like the calm before the storm..."
"Let's keep quiet! We need to be careful not to get targeted by the vines!"
The group communicated in hushed tones.
Qiao He looked at the distant buildings through binoculars.
Now they can be sure of one thing: as long as the vines in the building "cannot see" them, they will not easily take action.
The reason it is invisible is...
Qiao He wasn't leading everyone on the road, so they didn't cause any ground vibrations.
The vines wouldn't notice them.
Even if the vines had eyes, it wouldn't matter.
It can't see them for the time being!
Because Qiao He used light to disguise himself, creating a mirage that allowed them to perfectly "hide" among the buildings.
Unless you look closely, you'll most likely not see them.
It took them a full hour to get to the vicinity of the building.
Qiao He didn't go out directly; instead, they hid inside a building and quietly observed the situation inside.
The building was entwined with vines, like ivy, densely covering it.
Qiao He narrowed her eyes slightly. With such a large size, just how much power does the vine itself possess?!
And most importantly, why did such a powerful mutant appear here!
Is he a plant-based superhuman, or a mutated plant with intelligence?
Qiao He is unsure for now, so they can only observe the situation here for the time being.
Without saying much more, Bo Shiwu whispered, "Qiao He, look over there."
Qiao He looked in the direction he pointed.
It was a huge vine, like roots, firmly planted in the ground.
Qiao He raised an eyebrow slightly. "You mean to say where the vines' lair is?"
Bo Shiwu replied, "It's highly likely that it has a very developed root system. They say to catch the thief, you must first catch the king."
"Isn't that right?" Bo Shiwu's eyes slanted upwards, exuding a wicked air.
Qiao He laughed too, "Yeah, but we don't seem to have enough people to take care of the burden."
Thin mist, "What, isn't that enough?"
"I am worth a hundred of them."
Qiao He almost burst out laughing. "Alright, alright, let's discuss our next tactics—"
