Chapter 168 The Mutant Plant That Was Blown In



Suddenly, an explosion came from the place where the robots were deployed in the distance. With a loud "bang," Yuan Qi quickly pulled Lin Yiran to lie down. If he didn't protect Lin Yiran, Sen Ran would skin him alive.

Although the bombs were far away, he knew their power and that they could easily blast other objects that might accidentally injure them. Therefore, lying on the ground the moment the bombs exploded was the best way to protect himself.

The bomb blew Lin Yiran's head and body covered in scattered green plant sap, staining her entire body.

The explosion shook the ground a few times, and the screen in front of Senran also crashed for a moment. He immediately shut it down and restarted it, which only took a second or two.

Yuan Qi pulled Lin Yiran up by the arm, patted the dust off her clothes, and tried to pull her away before she could react. But Lin Yiran still spotted something not far away.

It was a plant corpse. As for what it resembled, Lin Yiran couldn't think of anything for the moment.

All you could see were its leaves completely wrapped up, its roots curled up away from the ground, caught by a small sapling, hanging in mid-air.

There was no movement; it must be a corpse, not very big, about the size of a bush about one person tall before the apocalypse.

The branches and leaves are very lush, but because they are all curled up, it looks like the tree is bald.

Without a doubt, this thing was blown up to their location. Like the plant remains, the place where Lin Yiran was standing was full of plant corpses and parts, except that one plant was relatively well preserved.

Lin Yiran thought and thought, feeling as if she had forgotten something.

She asked, "Hey, what's the name of this level 12 mutated plant again?"

Yuan Qi: "? Why are you asking about this? It's called a mimosa plant, a very common plant with little combat power, but being able to evolve to level twelve definitely gives it an advantage."

"Let's hurry up and leave, lest we delay their bombing."

Lin Yiran nodded, feeling that something was still a little off, until she saw the bald plant suddenly jump off the sapling, wriggle around, and be incredibly lively!

Lin Yiran's heart tightened.

Then you hear someone shouting into the communicator: "Yuan Qi, run! That mutated plant has been blown up to where you are! Get out of here!!"

Yuan Qi's scalp tightened, and before he could even utter a "Holy shit," he saw the sapling that Lin Yiran had pointed to shake itself, twist its head, and then forcefully shoot out many leaves from its branches, like a sharp blade, directly towards them!

Lin Yiran instantly drew out her several samurai swords to defend herself!

When the "swoosh, swoosh, crackling" sound came, Lin Yiran realized just how hard those leaves were. Judging from the sound, they were made of the same material as her blade, as hard as metal.

Lin Yiran's katana managed to repel some of the blades, but someone behind her was still hit.

The last person in Yuan Qi's team was outside the range of Lin Yiran's blade, but was still affected by the blade and it pierced his left shoulder.

This is nothing.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Lin Yiran and the others, the man in camouflage collapsed to the ground convulsing and foaming at the mouth within fifteen minutes of being stabbed.

"My God, the leaves of this mimosa plant have evolved toxins?" Lin Yiran found it unbelievable.

Yuan Qi: "Damn it, the Third Detachment is requesting backup. Report: Someone has been injured. Requesting backup!" He then shut down the communicator.

"Damn it, how dare they hurt my soldiers! I'll fight them to the death!"

Lin Yiran quickly pulled him back: "Hey, you can't be impulsive at this time. Step back, step back, let's think of a way to restrain it."

But the mutated plant didn't give them a chance at all. Instead, it charged forward again while the soldiers behind it were feeding their comrades the antidote.

The same technique was used, but the leaves seemed to be moving faster, and their colors were different, with a few dark purple leaves mixed in.

However, it did not attack Lin Yiran proactively, but instead went after the people behind her.

The mental power of the interstellar beings held a strong attraction for them.

Therefore, the mutated plants go berserk whenever they see people with spiritual power, determined to kill them no matter what!

This thing stretched out its branches and hopped towards Yuan Qi's direction.

Lin Yiran was definitely going to take action. Yuan Qi and the others came in looking for her, so she should lead them back to where they were originally.

As for the person who is already injured and poisoned, well, let's just do our best and leave the rest to fate.

Lin Yiran pulled out a handful of crystal cores to replenish her superpowers, and while the mutated plant was momentarily stunned, she gripped her large sword and slashed at it.

As it was chopped down, a flash of golden light appeared on the mimosa plant, and with a 'crack' sound,

Lin Yiran's knife broke...

Lin Yiran wasn't interested in the knife because it wasn't made of any rare metal, but this indirectly proved that the knife, made of pure iron, posed no threat to the powerful mutated plants.

Lin Yiran took out the knife made of rare metal that she had bought at a high price and used it. At the same time, she also took out the hunting knife that Senran had given her and placed it next to her to protect her.

When it charged forward again, things became much simpler. Under the suppression of Lin Yiran's more than a dozen consecutive sword techniques, it temporarily had no time to launch the leaf-shaped throwing knives.

While they were there, the others carried their comrade into the bushes to minimize his injury.

Then he immediately picked up a weapon and fired a laser gun at the mutated plant.

After a few gunshots, Lin Yiran was finally freed from close combat with the poisonous little guy.

Otherwise, I'd have to worry about her getting scratched.

She dodged backward, moving away from the battlefield, but still maneuvered her throwing knives around the mutated mimosa, scratching it helplessly, making it angry and frantic, shaking its body, and launching more and more poisonous attacks from its leaves each time.

Several people nearby were lying prone, intently firing bullets, but the bullets were useless. They knew very well that the only thing they could do was wait for reinforcements to arrive, find the core of the plant under the suppression of more firepower, and then smash it directly!

Lin Yiran: "We can't keep going like this. We have to find out where the core of the problem lies."

Yuan Qi: "Let's wait for reinforcements. Don't act rashly. The higher the level of this mutated plant, the stronger the protective shield outside its core. Even if we find it, we may not be able to break it."

"Furthermore, we can't get close to it at all. The visibility is so poor, and its body is so small, it's very difficult to find."

Lin Yiran: "We should at least give it a try."
