Chapter 671 The Invisible Enemy
When Zhou Wen was resting, he summoned a few companion pets to guard the tent. The Tai Sui was very restless and gave off a burning sensation, so Zhou Wen had to let it out as well.
"Old Zhou, where did you get these weird companion pets?" Li Xuan looked at the companion pets summoned by Zhou Wen curiously.
"Some of them were bought, and some were obtained when I went out for training." Zhou Wen said as he lay down to rest.
Feng Qiuyan had already fallen asleep and did not talk to Li Xuan, so he had no choice but to lie down and sleep.
I was sleeping in the middle of the night when I suddenly heard a commotion outside. I didn't know what was going on.
"It's so noisy in the middle of the night. Could it be that the dimensional creatures in the Longmen Grottoes have rushed out again?" Li Xuan was also woken up and said a little depressed.
Zhou Wen and Feng Qiuyan also sat up and were about to go out to see what happened, but suddenly saw the tent door being opened. Then they saw An Sheng rushing in and asked anxiously, "Master Wen, are you okay?"
"It's okay, what could happen to us?" Li Xuan asked An Sheng with some confusion.
An Sheng looked at the three of them carefully, and after a long while he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that everything is fine. You should stay here for now. There is something wrong outside. You can go out after it is resolved."
"What exactly happened?" Zhou Wen asked Ansheng.
"Look for yourself." An Sheng pointed outside.
Zhou Wen and the other two looked out through the crack in the door, and were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
I saw mushrooms of various colors growing everywhere on the ground, walls, and tents outside.
"Oh my god, when did this place become a mushroom base?" Li Xuan said.
"Take a close look at the soldiers outside." An Sheng said solemnly.
When An Sheng said this, Zhou Wen had already seen it. He saw that a soldier's face had many small mushrooms growing on it, as if he had acne.
Although those little mushrooms look pretty, they are creepy when they grow on people's faces.
The soldier had a look of fear on his face and was trying to pick the small mushrooms off his face with his hands, but as soon as he pulled the small mushrooms off his face, new small mushrooms popped up soon.
He kept pulling until his face was covered in blood, but the little mushrooms still kept popping up. He was so frightened that he started crying, and he kept pulling the mushrooms off his face while crying.
There were many people like him. Although there were officers controlling the situation, this fear made them completely lose their usual composure and the scene was very chaotic.
Zhou Wen and the other two felt their legs go weak after watching this, and subconsciously touched their faces. Fortunately, no mushrooms grew on their faces.
"What is going on?" Zhou Wen asked Ansheng.
"We don't know yet. We're investigating. In the entire base, only a very small number of people haven't been infected by this strange thing. It's probably related to the scene in the prescription cave before. You guys stay here first. We may need you to cooperate with the investigation later. We hope to find out why some people didn't grow mushrooms." An Sheng looked a little solemn, and rushed out in a hurry after he finished speaking.
"Thank God that we were not infected with that thing, otherwise my handsome face would be ruined and I wouldn't know how to live." Li Xuan pulled up the tent and said with lingering fear.
"I don't think it's just God's blessing. There must be some reason that prevented us from being infected by those mushrooms." Zhou Wen looked around but didn't see anything unusual.
There were no mushrooms growing in their tent, and the three people and their companion pets were all fine. The Tai Sui was lying near the tent door, and no one knew what he was doing there.
Since the naked eye couldn't see it, Zhou Wen used the ability of the listening earrings to listen, and brought the ability of listening to the extreme.
Upon hearing this, I immediately discovered the problem.
At the door of the tent, there were many tiny things that were so small that the human eye could not see them at all, moving with the air.
Those little things were smaller than dust. If Zhou Wen hadn't deliberately used Di Ting to observe, he wouldn't have been able to find them in the dust at all. Even if he used Di Ting's hearing ability, Zhou Wen didn't notice them at first.
The reason why we discovered their existence was that Tai Sui was actually devouring those little things and it looked like he was eating them with great relish.
Zhou Wen expanded the scope of his listening and soon discovered that there were many such small things in the air outside. They were smaller than dust and could not be seen by human eyes. However, when they fell on the skin or other things, they would drill into the pores, quickly take root and sprout, and grow into small mushrooms.
Because they are too small, no one can find them. Now the entire base is filled with these little things, just like snow.
However, apart from Zhou Wen, very few people could see them. All the soldiers were unaware that danger was lurking around them.
Zhou Wen stretched out his hand to try to grab them, but found that his palm could not hold them at all. They were too small and there was no point in catching them. Those guys were like bacteria. Even though you know they are there, it is difficult to eliminate them.
"It's amazing that Tai Sui can find them and feed on these little things." Zhou Wen saw that Tai Sui had eaten all the little things in the tent, and seemed eager to go out and eat.
Zhou Wen thought that the reason the three of them were safe was because Tai Sui was here, eating up all the little creatures that invaded the house, so they were not affected.
The military has apparently realized the problem, and soldiers wearing antibacterial clothing are spraying chemicals to eliminate bacteria and fungi in the base.
But it was of no use at all. Those little things were obviously not something that ordinary medicines could deal with.
"Don't go out yet, I'll wait at the door." Zhou Wen said to Li Xuan and Feng Qiuyan, then opened the tent door.
As soon as the door opened, a lot of those little things came in along the air flow. Tai Sui immediately jumped around excitedly and swallowed those little things that were almost invisible to humans.
Zhou Wen used a small fireball of vitality that burst out from the Forging Temple. A red ball of fire flew out from his fingertips and hit the almost invisible small things in the air.
The little things were burned to ashes by the flames. They didn't seem very strong, but because they were too small, they could not be detected at all, so they caused such great harm.
After burning a few small creatures to death, Zhou Wen was suddenly surprised to find that a tiny companion egg had fallen out. The companion egg was even smaller than the small creatures. It was as if Zhou Wen could not see it at all if he did not have the ability to listen carefully.
He took out his cell phone and took a picture of the tiny companion egg, and the companion egg was immediately put into the cell phone.
"Those little things are actually dimensional creatures!" After Zhou Wen looked at the properties of the companion eggs, he knew the true origins of those little things.
Parasitic spores: mortal level.
