Chapter 151 Destroying the Rose
Many players were killed by the poisonous needles fired by the mutant insects, the parasitic mucus sprayed, and the corrosive poison powder sprinkled before they even had the chance to exit the game.
Zhen Jinli fell into agonizing contemplation in front of the rule modification interface.
What other rules can be used to deal with these insects with amazing reproductive abilities?
Is there anything else she hasn't noticed?
Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through Zhen Jinli's mind.
If such a rule is set, is it possible to eliminate those giant insects without being noticed by the will of the blue planet?
Zhen Jinli quickly typed a line of words in the blank column.
"In the Rose Funeral dungeon, burning all the roses will cut off the mutant insects' food source."
Those mutated bees and butterflies will attack humans and use them as parasitic hosts.
But in fact, their main food source is plants such as roses.
As long as they burn the roses, will it be possible to effectively suppress the mutated insects that are multiplying and growing wildly?
After setting up the supplementary rules, Zhen Jinli found Su Yan and Shen Ji and explained his ideas to them.
They all felt that Zhen Jinli's inference was highly feasible.
Su Yan and his team first told this idea to the hotel staff and asked them to tell the police about this method.
Then, Zhen Jinli took several fire-type players, including Chen Ji, and quietly left the hotel and walked towards the central garden.
In order to prevent the mutant insects from suddenly appearing and attacking them, Zhen Jinli and three special-ability players adopted team combat.
She was responsible for protecting them with a protective barrier, while several players were responsible for using fire abilities to burn all the roses in the flowerbed in the center of the garden square.
Seeing their main food source being burned to death by the damn humans, the half-human-high mutant insects became furious.
There seemed to be some kind of special resonance between the mutated insects. They quickly gathered into a large group and pounced towards Zhen Jinli and the others angrily.
"Protect!"
The protective barrier covering everyone was suddenly banged by the mutant insects.
Although Zhen Jinli could use a protective barrier to protect several fire-type players, he was unable to use any effective attack skills against these insects.
Using an air cannon?
I'm afraid that it won't kill many of them, but will only make these mutated insects more angry.
Seeing that the roses in the central flowerbed were almost burned, Zhen Jinli began to think about how to help all these players escape safely.
She could use the barrier to protect these players and move them to the next garden full of roses, but she was afraid that they would be attacked by these insects again along the way.
Su Yan was not idle either. When Zhen Jinli and his group were besieged by mutated insects, he was hiding not far away with a few players.
These players all voluntarily follow these high-scoring players.
With the guidance of a skilled player, you can kill monsters and earn points at the same time. Why not?
Su Yan pondered for a moment, then turned around and asked.
"Are there any water-type players among you?"
One of the girls, who looked like a high school student, raised her hand and said, "I am."
Su Yan nodded and said, "What's your name?"
The little girl said, "My name is Zhang Yu."
"Very good." Su Yan pointed to the fountains on both sides of the central flower bed and said, "Do you see the musical fountain over there? Later..."
After listening to Su Yan's plan, Zhang Yu said with admiration in his eyes.
"As expected of President Su, this method will definitely help Sister Jinli and the others escape from this predicament."
Just as those mutated insects were chasing Zhen Jinli and the others and attacking them, suddenly, heavy rain began to fall from the sky.
It wasn't so much that it was raining, but rather that it was only raining over their heads.
The source of this water is the musical fountains on both sides of the central garden.
Although those giant bees and butterflies were huge in size, their fur and wings were soaked in water, so they gradually found it difficult to fly.
Su Yan seized the opportunity and activated his thunder skill.
"Thunderous!"
Huge purple lightning rings descended from the sky like giant dragons, turning the mutated insects chasing Zhen Jinli into charcoal one by one.
Under Su Yan's lightning attack, the swarms of bees and butterflies chasing Zhen Jinli and the others were all scorched by the lightning and fell from the air one after another.
Originally, the mutant insects were quite agile, and if Su Yan directly used his lightning ability to attack them, it might miss, wasting his ability.
But if he used rain to slow down the movements of those mutated insects first, Su Yan would be much more confident in his attack.
As soon as Zhen Jinli saw the mutated insects that had been electrocuted and turned into charcoal falling in front of her, she knew it was Su Yan's work.
She turned around and looked at Su Yan, who waved at her.
"Xiao Li, come here quickly!"
"I'll drive you to the next rose garden."
After leaving the hotel, Su Yan went to deal with the car problem first.
Now, he and Zhen Jinli and his group got into two cars and drove to the next rose garden.
Along the way, although they occasionally encountered some mutated insects, fortunately they were unable to do anything about their steel-like shells for the time being.
After using the same trick again, they burned down most of the rose gardens in the city.
Even Zhang Yu found a way to absorb a lot of moisture from the roses in the flower shops along the way, causing them to wither quickly.
Basically, they used every method they could think of to destroy the roses.
At the end of the day, in addition to Zhen Jinli and the others, the NPCs and police in the game had almost destroyed all the roses in the city.
Now, they just have to wait for the mutated insects to starve to death.
As long as those mutated insects can't find food, they will gradually lose the strength to attack humans.
***
When Zhen Jinli and the others returned to the hotel to rest, Chen Ji looked out the window at the messy flower beds along the way and fell into deep thought.
Zhen Jinli thought he was too tired from today's actions, so she asked.
"Jiuyi, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?"
Shen Ji shook his head and said, “I was wondering why those insects attack humans?”
Zhen Jinli had never thought about this problem, but when Chen Ji brought it up, she realized that something was wrong.
Generally speaking, if insects want to attack humans, it must be because humans have harmed their interests.
But humans and these mutated insects eat different foods, so there is no conflict of interest.
And humans have no intention of actively harming these insects.
In a flash, Zhen Jinli and Shen Ji seemed to have thought of the answer at the same time.
