Chapter 172 The Illusory Eye, Hunting the Boss, Mythical Beast Compendium
The players fought back fiercely, setting fire to the vines whenever they dared to attack.
Although this method is not very good, it is a case of harming the enemy by 1,000 while losing 800 of your own.
With no other options left, the players took out their torches, lit them, and lined up close together.
Players inside the circle held torches, while players outside the circle pointed their torches outwards, creating an impenetrable defense.
Unless the vine can grab the player's hands and feet directly from underground.
Otherwise, you really can't expect to get past the players' defensive lines of fire.
For a moment, the player and the vines stood in a stalemate, neither daring to attack rashly.
Shen Jue left this place and headed deep into the valley. With her illusory eyes, she knew where she could pass safely without being targeted by the vines.
The Eye of the Illusion talent is really useful.
She must make good use of this talent and practice diligently to fully develop it.
Once this talent reaches a certain level of proficiency, will it undergo a qualitative change?
To leave this place, you must first find the source of the vines deep in the valley.
Destroying the roots of the vines will solve this problem.
You asked Shen Jue, why didn't you directly address the root cause of the vines upon entering, instead of waiting until the vines began hunting players before trying to find a solution?
First of all, she is not omnipotent. Even if she has hints, it only allows her to avoid danger in advance, not to predict the future.
Secondly, she has her own selfish motives; the plant boss hunting players can also be seen as reducing her enemies.
She can clear the level better by using these players to explore the area.
The game system had previously stated that no player could be trusted in this game; these players might be friendly one second and hostile the next.
Sometimes, the most appropriate way is to use players appropriately to achieve your own goals.
Although it's cruel, it's the most rational and fastest method.
Before the player was trapped in the illusion, the vines were very well disguised. With Shen Jue's perception, he could not detect anything different, and they looked just like ordinary plants.
Shen Jue thought the biggest challenge in this valley was those flowers.
In fact, these flowers are indeed dangerous; they can affect the player's mind, causing them to fall into hallucinations and thus be killed by the vines without their knowledge.
They followed the route chosen for her by the Illusory Eye.
Shen Jue carefully traversed the valley, staying close to the ground and not flying into the sky.
This vine is clearly conscious; if she flies into the air and the resulting air currents are detected by the vine, it will be very troublesome.
She has only become invisible and concealed her presence, but these two abilities do not mean that her actions will not cause any disturbance to her surroundings.
Even though she was careful enough.
While maintaining a slow flight, Shen Jue also had to be careful not to bump into any flowers, plants, or trees.
Approaching the roots of the vines, one finds they have covered the entire mountainside. Some vines hang down from the mountainside, seemingly swaying in the wind, but in reality, they are being lured by the vines themselves.
Because at the very top of the vine, there is a shining fruit.
If other players saw this, they would definitely stop at nothing to get the fruit.
The fruit that this vine produces looks like something good.
But picking it is a challenge; to obtain this fruit, one must first overcome the obstacle of the vines.
This fruit can be said to be both the vine's weakness and an important means for the vine to lure its prey.
In the plant kingdom, hunting methods often correspond to beautiful appearances.
It has to look very valuable, otherwise how can it successfully lure its prey!
Shen Jue ignored the orange fruit. Don't be careless just because it's easy to pick up.
From Shen Jue's perspective, the route to the orange fruit was completely blocked by vines.
There's nowhere left to go.
I wonder if her immobilization card will work on the vines?
Both are bosses, but this one is plant-based, so it should be useful too.
With this in mind, Shen Jue took out the immobilization card, targeted the vines, and confirmed its use.
The card takes effect immediately and is useful!
The immobilization card only lasts for three seconds, so be quick!
The moment the immobilization card took effect, Shen Jue flew to the vines at top speed, sliced off the orange fruit with a single stroke, stored it in his spatial storage, then attached a speed card to himself, turned and ran, all in one swift motion.
They didn't even consider what was happening behind them!
After the immobilization card's effect ended, the vine discovered that the Forgetfulness Fruit it had borne was gone!
The vine was furious and was about to swing its body to catch the thief who stole its fruit when it discovered that its body was shrinking.
No! No! No! It doesn't want to sleep! It hasn't taken its revenge yet!
No matter how unwilling the vines may be, it is an undeniable fact that they have fallen into a deep sleep.
The vines, stripped of their orange fruit, are severely weakened and need to rest and recuperate.
The vine's last second before it fell asleep: Damn it, that cunning player, it didn't even get to see his face.
No matter, it only needs to sleep for a few hours to wake up. As long as the Forget-Me-Not Fruit is still on that player, it can find her, and then it won't be too late to take revenge.
After obtaining the orange fruit, Shen Jue left the depths of the valley.
At this moment, from her perspective, the surrounding vines seemed to be shrinking.
Upon realizing a possibility, Shen Jue immediately stopped flying.
He piloted the flying shuttle and turned back to fight.
The shrinking of its vines indicates that it is severely weakened. Now is its period of weakness. Take advantage of its weakness and kill it. You might even find a treasure chest.
As Shen Jue launched his counterattack, the players outside the valley noticed that the vines surrounding them were slowly retreating, eventually moving faster and faster until they disappeared completely.
Players: Completely bewildered!
What's going on?
Did the vines just let them go so easily?
So are they competing to see who can last longer?
It seems the players' side has won?
They had no idea that their escape was entirely due to another player.
Using the Illusionary Eye, Shen Jue reached the depths of the valley via the fastest route.
Here, apart from vines, no flowers or plants dare to grow near the vines.
Looking at the mountain wall, one could see human-shaped green lumps hanging down.
My God, this is a killer vine!
It actually uses the player's body as nourishment to heal itself.
That won't do; the dormant vines are not aware of anything.
The vines without consciousness are much more ordinary; they have no offensive moves, no schemes, and no feints.
To deal with these vines, Shen Jue pulled out a bomb card.
