Chapter 88 Mutated Banyan Tree
As for the tree roots themselves, I took a barely clear photo. The tree was very small, and I could vaguely see some very thin things like brown beards hanging on the branches, swaying in the breeze.
"Is this a banyan tree?" Jinna said. Only the branches of a banyan tree would have such tassel-like roots.
The local soldier also preferred the banyan tree. Although I haven't seen it for a long time, it should be right.
Ye Zhou silently wrote in his notebook: Probably a banyan tree.
The other soldier's drone did not fly as close as Pu Zhi's and did not capture more useful information.
"Isn't it a little too small? There are many trees in this park that are bigger than it. How could it be this one?" Zhang Quan asked in confusion.
Zhang Quan was in the eighth team, and he had very little exposure to things. He didn't dare to go too far when doing missions, so it was normal that he didn't understand these things. Moreover, the hunting team was more exposed to zombies, and rarely to mutant plants and animals.
Ye Zhou patiently explained: "Many mutant plants have the ability to change size. Although most of them are vine-like mutant plants, it is not impossible for trees to have this ability."
Xishan listened silently and memorized all the information in his mind.
Next, Ye Zhou introduced a lot of information about mutant plants, such as that many mutant plants can break away from the land after level two and can change their growing place at any time.
"Since our action this time has disturbed it, will it move to another place?" Li Zheng asked with a frown. Their team six had also signed up for the strangulation mission issued by the base.
"It's hard to say. It's best to complete the task today and leave some people on duty. We will arrange for people to come over tomorrow. For now, we have to find a way to test its strength." After saying that, he took out a telescope and looked at the location of the mutant banyan tree, thinking about what method would be better.
He brought a lot of guns, and Xiao Ren and Yang Yang's attack power was not low, but this was the first time that a level 5 mutant plant appeared, and no one knew how powerful it was.
"Move position, drive and get your weapons to where we were just now." Ye Zhou put down the telescope and gave the order. The soldiers under him all answered yes. After returning to the car, they packed up their things at a very fast speed and headed towards the place where the mutant banyan tree had stopped before.
When he reached about 3,100 meters, Pu Zhi saw tree roots hidden underground. There were at least a dozen of them, ready to attack as soon as anyone approached.
Ye Zhou asked his subordinates to carry a rocket launcher and fire directly at the place Pu Zhi mentioned.
The mutant banyan tree had no time to react, and one of its roots was blown into powder. The remaining roots broke out of the ground and flew around in the air in pain.
After only one or two seconds, it stopped moving again and rushed towards the crowd with great momentum, but unfortunately it was not long enough and stopped at 3,000 meters.
Many people were frightened by its ferocious momentum and broke out in cold sweats, but fortunately it couldn't come over.
Just as everyone was celebrating, Pu Zhi did not relax his vigilance at all, and spoke almost at the same time as Xi Shan: "It's getting thicker, run! / Its energy is gathering, run!"
If only one person said it, people might not believe it, but since two psychics both said there was something unusual, only a fool would stay where he is.
The soldier carrying the rocket launcher threw it away like garbage and ran back frantically.
Jinna and Puzhi were at the back. Their pets had the highest damage among them, so they had to bear the brunt of the burden.
The small blade suddenly grew larger in size, and Yangyang was not willing to be left behind, revealing his hard and sharp claws.
Ten tree roots grew to the thickness of human thighs, broke through the three thousand meter limit, and headed straight towards everyone.
Xiao Ren first blocked its way with an ice wall, then spotted a tree root and bit it.
Yangyang praised the tree root with a few claws, and only a finger-thin part of it was still connected to the tree root. It then added two more claws, and the tree root was completely broken.
On the other side, Xiao Ren bit off a root and was immediately chased by other roots. Xiao Ren immediately shrank in size, jumping up and down with ease, and occasionally freezing the tree root, making it unable to move.
However, the level five mutant plant was truly extraordinary. It only took a few seconds for it to break free. However, with the cooperation of Yangyang, the two beasts broke off five of its roots in just a few minutes.
But the mutated plants had strong recovery abilities and returned to normal in a short while.
Ye Zhou and his men hid at a safe distance, raised their guns and tried to fight back, but Jin Na stopped them immediately: "Zhang Quan, come! Everyone else, don't move!"
Yangyang and Xiaoren were still fighting, and if they shot at this time, they would definitely hurt them.
Zhang Quan, who was called, immediately trotted over and used his venom ability on the tree roots.
Compared with the fierce attacks of the two beasts, the mutant banyan tree was not concerned about Zhang Quan's attack. It was just a small poison that could only hurt its skin.
More than ten minutes passed, and under the high-intensity attack, the speed of the two beasts began to decrease.
If you observe carefully, you will find that the recovery of the mutant banyan tree is getting slower and slower.
Pu Zhi and Jin Na called back Xiao Ren and Yang Yang. The moment they evacuated, Ye Zhou's various weapons appeared one after another, the roots were pierced, and small holes appeared one after another.
The mutated banyan tree was really angry. It concentrated more of its energy on these ten roots and wanted to kill the humans who disturbed it like crazy!
Under the suppression of firepower, several people successfully evacuated, but everyone is now in danger.
Xiao Ren jumped onto the roof of a military truck and froze its roots to slow it down while everyone was evacuating. At this time, the army's hit rate rose sharply, and the mutant banyan tree had to temporarily avoid the attack.
Seeing the mutant banyan tree disappear, everyone could finally breathe a sigh of relief and report to the base.
Xiao Ren's heroic performance won everyone's praise and also attracted the attention of Xishan.
Although both are at level three, Xiao Ren's strength far exceeds Yang Yang's, and he doesn't even seem to be at level one. However, the energy it overflows from has indeed not reached the level of level four.
As for Jin Na, he saw her talking to her pet several times. Although talking to pets was normal, the energy in her body was obviously much higher when she talked to pets.
Speaking animal language?... Xishan lowered his eyes, no emotion in them, he just silently took note of all the information.
It was already 11 o'clock in the morning, and the weather was hot and humid. After leaving ten soldiers to guard the area 5,000 meters away, everyone drove back to the base.
Except for sedans which have air conditioning, military trucks do not.
Inside the truck, sweat broke out on Xishan's forehead and his heartbeat was getting faster and faster. Even though he was sitting in the car with the window open, the wind blowing in was hot and made it hard to breathe. His breathing became more and more rapid, his eyes went black, and he fainted.
The driver in the car saw this and hurriedly took out the walkie-talkie to contact Ye Zhou: "Captain, Xi the Psychic has fainted, should we stop?"
Ye Zhou was wearing a white vest at this time. If there weren't girls in the car, he would have taken it off completely. Hearing this, he frowned and exhaled a breath of hot air: "Keep driving, we'll reach the base in a little while."
