Chapter 731 736. Fighting for Territory
In order to avoid being splashed by the corrosive liquid, Wenrou and Sun Jue protected Sun Xiaoyu and huddled tightly in the corner. Wen Xuan, who was the first to be hit, was burned in several places by the splashing liquid. She bit her lips tightly in pain.
Seeing that this was not a solution and unable to think of any countermeasures for a moment, Sun Jue was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Sun Xiaoyu, who was tightly protected by the two men, thought of the five elements restraining each other, fire restraining wood, and his eyes quickly scanned the supplies.
"Mom and Dad, we have to find a way to burn these roots with fire."
When Wenrou and Sun Jue heard this, they immediately turned around and started looking for flammable materials in the small basement.
The last three people's eyes were fixed on the bucket of cooking oil in the corner. That was their only bucket of oil, and they had always been reluctant to use it, but now they had to use it to save their lives.
"Xiaoyu, hide here and don't move. Mom and Dad will go support your aunt."
Wenrou and Sun Jue quietly went to the corner, tied all the opened packaging bags to a baton that was no longer powered, then poured cooking oil on it and lit it with a candle. With a bang, the flames rose and they made a fire stick.
"You go hide first, I'll go help Xiaoxuan."
Sun Jue pushed Wenrou behind him, raised the torch and burned towards the roots. Sure enough, fire was more effective than cutting with a knife. The corrosive liquids could not splash out, and after being burned by the fire, they emitted an unpleasant smell.
Wen Xuan held Sun Xiaoyu in her arms and hid in the corner, covering her nose tightly. The small basement was filled with smoke and a pungent smell. The roots of the mutated plants continued to extend downwards, with no sign of decreasing.
As time went by, the cooking oil and plastic packaging bags became less and less. Wen Xuan's arms were so tired that he could hardly lift them. His clothes were soaked with sweat, and he looked extremely disheveled.
People get tired, but these mutated plants don't. If they keep fighting, even if they die of exhaustion, they probably won't be able to remove all the roots. Wenrou looked at her sister and the man who were already at the end of their strength, and her heart was filled with despair for a moment.
"Xiaoyu, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to find a way."
Her gentle gaze fell on the floor of the basement. She picked up a water cup and smashed it on the ground. She picked up the broken pieces and began to dig the ground. Sun Xiaoyu saw it and started digging too. Although the speed was very slow, the two of them were extremely determined.
Wen Xuan accidentally saw them digging the ground, and immediately shot out a stream of water from his palm, soaking the ground and speeding up their digging.
In the small basement, people were struggling to survive, while outside the base, a group of psychics who had finally rushed back were dumbfounded when they saw the lush green East China base.
"What's going on? The base has been taken over by plants?"
"We haven't been gone for long, it's only been a few days, and our old nest has been raided."
"Isn't this too fast?"
"Who tipped them off?"
"This is really firewood delivered to your door."
"careful!"
Just as everyone was staring in amazement, a towering tree suddenly stretched out its branches and lashed at everyone fiercely. If anyone was hit by them, they would go to heaven on the spot.
A battle for territory between people with special abilities and mutant plants began. Various special abilities burst out one after another, and the noise was felt even by Wen Xuan and others in the basement.
“Someone’s back!”
"We are saved!"
The few people who were originally struggling suddenly felt like they were injected with chicken blood and felt that they could do it again.
