Chapter 232: Beautiful Flowers Are Poisonous
It's scary just looking at it, and makes me break out in cold sweats.
Nan Wei, who was behind him, leaned over to Lin Qin's ear and spoke softly.
"Lin Qin, I don't think this thing is right."
Lin Qin didn't say anything, but just tilted his head and tried to adjust the direction of the sled lights, trying to see the specific appearance of the object in the reflective position.
But this thing was backlit, and as it was getting darker, only its outline could be seen.
Like... like some kind of thick vine.
As for the dark green reflective object hanging in the air, it looked like something was hovering on it.
These two dark green reflective objects look like some kind of soft body movements.
But it's freezing cold, so it shouldn't appear.
Lin Qin took a deep breath, then turned the car around and planned to drive in the opposite direction.
Suddenly, the green light disappeared.
There were white flocs floating in the sky, just like snow.
Attracting the attention of Lin Qin and others.
Zhang Xue looked up at the white flocs and asked, "Is it snowing?"
Zhang Xue stretched out her palms, trying to catch the objects floating in the air and falling freely.
The white flocs that fell into the palm of my hand looked like the fluff of some object, and did not feel as cool as snowflakes.
Not snow.
Nan Wei turned her head, pulled down her mask, and blew a breath towards the thing in Zhang Xue's palm.
The white thing instantly floated into the air, flying farther and farther away.
After finishing everything, Nan Wei put on her mask again, covered her mouth and nose and said, "Be careful, these things are not snow."
Nowadays, you have to be careful with everything.
There are so many things floating around all of a sudden, maybe it’s really some mess.
Wei Lan nodded, also agreeing with Nan Wei's words, "Nan Wei is right, there are probably quite a few mutated species now, we really have to be careful with such long vines."
"Lin Qin, should we continue to take a detour?"
It got dark quickly and it was now much darker than before.
If we delay here, it will not be a good thing because it is dark at night and our vision is obstructed.
Moreover, there were too many flocs in the air, and they were all floating in their direction. It was not easy to hide from them. The only thing they could do was not to breathe them in.
Suddenly, the thick object on the ground twitched violently.
Moving quickly in front of Lin Qin's eyes.
Nan Wei clenched her palms nervously. Once danger came, she would use her abilities to avoid being threatened with her life.
The same was true for Wei Lan and Zhang Xue. Zhang Xue was completely tense.
The fireball in his hand grew bigger and bigger, and as the thing twitched, he threw it forward with force.
The firelight cut a ray of light in the darkness, and the object was clearly seen.
The thick vines spread far away, revealing a mutant plant that was almost as tall as a two-story building.
In the very center of the plant, several large flowers were about to bloom, drooping on one side.
Above the bud is something like a flower spike, and the white flocs in the air are floating out from these places.
As time went by, the drooping buds began to bloom.
The flowers are gorgeous and quite large.
Zhang Xue exclaimed.
"Wow, it smells so good."
Nan Wei Wei Lan, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment, and seemed to take a good sniff. "It really is, it smells quite nice. This is a rare sight. It's been a long time since I've seen fresh flowers."
Lin Qin frowned and looked around.
He didn't care whether the flowers smelled good or not.
He just looked at the surrounding environment and said, "Keep going forward, go around it, and don't disturb it."
The vines of this mutated plant are too thick.
Just by looking at the thickness and size of the vines, one could tell that the one they had met before was not of the same size.
If they were to deal with it, it would be hard to tell whether they could handle it judging by the thickness of the vines.
However, they can deal with the enemy with their own strength. Since the mutated plants did not attack actively, they did not need to seek trouble.
However, no one from the team responded.
Nan Wei behind him suddenly got out of the car and walked straight past Lin Qin.
Lin Qin withdrew his gaze and looked at Nan Wei's movements towards the mutated plant.
"Nanwei, what are you doing?"
However, there was no response.
Lin Qin couldn't help but reach out and pull Nan Wei's arm, and found that she was in an unconscious state, just walking forward in a daze.
He paused and saw Zhang Xue also getting off the sled.
His eyes were lifeless, exactly the same symptoms as Nan Wei's.
He paused, and just as he was about to look back, he saw Wei Lan doing the same.
It seems like being controlled.
His eyes were dull, looking straight up in the air.
Wait, half empty.
Lin Qin turned around and saw that the flower bud, which had not yet bloomed, had opened a small gap and was facing their location.
I don’t know if it’s the flower itself or the fragrance that seems to attract people’s attention. Lin Qin looked at it and was in a trance for a moment.
He suddenly came back to his senses and woke up.
He patted his cheek.
This flower has a bewitching and hallucinogenic effect.
I think it should be the scent of flowers.
Lin Qin quickly took out a KP95 mask.
This thing should be able to prevent it for a while.
Of course, a wet towel or something like that can have the same effect, but it's freezing cold out here, and the towel will freeze into ice in a short while.
On the contrary, KP masks can be more convenient and quicker.
In this moment of trance, the three people were gradually approaching the mutant plants.
The thick vines twitched back, revealing their original appearance.
Those were the thick and exposed rhizomes of the mutant plants.
But underneath these rhizomes, there are many tiny vines extending out, and there is also a huge flower hidden behind the rhizomes.
It's not exactly a flower, as it has two leaves closed together with teeth in the middle.
At this time, the two leaves opened, and from a distance, it looked like a bloody mouth, waiting for the arrival of prey at any time.
The flowers behind the rhizome are more than twice as large as the flowers in mid-air.
It can completely swallow up a person's height.
Seeing Nan Wei walking into the pistil and being entangled and pulled by vines, Lin Qin walked over quickly, a machete appeared in his hand, and he chopped down at the plant.
The vines wrapped around Nan Wei broke directly.
It was surprisingly easy to cut.
Yes, this mutant plant is different from the one we encountered before.
His main attack is to control people and bring them into his hunting range on their own initiative.
All the deceived prey have no attack power.
Therefore, the function of the vine is just to wrap around and pull the prey together, and it does not need such great toughness.
He pushed Nan Wei to the other side of the sled and shook her body, "Wake up, wake up."
However, the controlled Nan Wei couldn't hear what he said at all.
Lin Qin turned his head and saw Zhang Xue had been entangled by the vines and was about to be sent into the big mouth.
