Chapter 579 584. Chaotic Battle
Qiao Zixi's arrival received special attention from the people in charge of the Northwest Base. Han Yixiao acted as her mouthpiece throughout the whole process and gave a detailed introduction to the development of the Kyoto Base and the next plans.
When Chi Youshan heard that they were going to build a railway line connecting the two bases, he was extremely excited.
"With the railway line open, we can bypass the city center when collecting supplies, and the danger will be reduced exponentially."
“Also, we can go to farther places to collect supplies, and it will be much safer when we bring them back.”
"This plan is very good, very good!"
Qiao Zixi and his group did not stay here for long. They handed the survivors over to Chi Youshan, left a batch of supplies, and started their return journey.
The heavy rain had stopped. On the way back, there was mud everywhere from the receding flood, and there was a puddle wherever he stepped. Xiao Zeli looked at these strange-shaped skyscrapers with a strange look in his eyes. He was only focused on the scenery in front of him, but did not pay attention to his feet.
Suddenly, Xiao Zeli felt his ankle tighten, and he quickly picked up Mei Ruhui who was walking beside him and flew up.
"ah!"
Mei Ruhui screamed in fright, and saw a thin tentacle tightly wrapped around her feet, pulling her down with force. Xiao Zeli chopped it with a sword, and the tentacle was cut off and retracted into the ground.
Everyone became alert. The biting cold wind whistled sharply, turning people's faces pale. Xiao Zeli held Mei Ruhui in his arms and flew in the air, his sword ready to strike.
"Everyone be careful, that tentacle just now must be the root of a big tree!"
Yu Zhiming, who had experienced the battle with ancient trees, could tell at a glance that it was the tree roots that were attacking them. Unfortunately, it was extremely fast and thin, and after being cut off by Xiao Zeli's sword, it immediately retracted into the ground.
Han Yixiao picked up the piece of tree root that fell on the ground, looked at it carefully, and couldn't figure out what kind of tree it was. He raised his hand to throw it away. At this moment, the piece of tree root that had been motionless suddenly poked Han Yixiao's eyes.
Han Yixiao reacted very quickly and turned his head. The tree root went straight towards Qiao Ziyi behind him. Qiao Ziyi threw a ball of fire at it without thinking. With a puff, a foul smell spread after it burned.
“It stinks!”
"Why do these tree roots smell so bad after burning?"
"You've eaten too many zombies."
Qiao Meili grabbed Qiao Weiming's arm tightly, her face turned pale with fear. After waiting for a long time, there was no movement. Everyone knew that they must have stepped into the attack range of the tree roots and could be attacked at any time.
"Get out!"
Han Yixiao gave the order that they would not go to the mountain even though they knew there was a tiger there.
But just as he finished speaking, there were a few swish sounds and dense tentacles emerged from the ground, quickly wrapping around everyone.
“Ahhhhhh!”
The entangled Qiao Meili screamed in fear. As she screamed, the tree roots rushed into her mouth. Qiao Weiming didn't care that he was entangled tightly, and quickly threw his thunder ability at Qiao Meili.
Han Yixiao's golden sword flew around, cutting off tree roots wherever it went. Qiao Ziyi and Chen Yang threw out huge balls of fire, burning the whole place with a foul smell. Yu Zhiming took out a machete and chopped wildly. Qiao Manxi and Bai Qi turned their fingers into claws, cutting through iron like mud. For a moment, everyone was busy and unable to take care of themselves.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Zeli didn't dare to put his feet on the ground. He held the sword in one hand and slashed, while holding Mei Ruhui in the other hand. Xiao Zeli, who was dealing with mutant plants for the first time, only adhered to one principle, to break the force with the sword.
