It will precisely calculate the dosage it emits, allowing its prey to unknowingly inhale enough floral fragrance along the way, only reaching its body's upper limit when it reaches the vicinity of the flower.
Only then does the gentle trap tear away its disguise, revealing its true, ferocious nature!
A chill ran through me as I thought about this; it was all over now.
Right now, I feel like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff, or maybe I'm already above the cliff.
It was better not to think about these things before, but now, probably because of the tension, my blood flow is faster, and the substances hidden in my blood are starting to act more quickly.
Dante, who ran out in his moment of desperation, is a good example of this.
I forced myself to calm down, first holding my breath and stopping inhaling the harmful floral scents.
My steps began to slowly recede, and at that moment I could feel my body gradually losing control.
I can't fall now. If I fall, then everyone will surely die today!
Just then, the cry of an eagle echoed from the sky; it was Pat's voice. It had certainly noticed the situation on the ground, but Pat remained perplexed.
There were clearly no animals on the ground, so why did Dante and Susu suddenly collapse?
Just then, it was about to circle down and take a look when I saw this. I was so startled that I shouted and gave it a command.
"Pat! Don't get down, continue patrolling and keeping watch!"
After hearing my call, Pat, who was leaning downwards, hesitated for a moment before rising back up to a thousand meters and continuing to circle and patrol in the sky.
It seems the fragrance of these flowers has no effect on the birds high above; no wonder they all hurry by, none of them willing to linger for even a moment.
The concentration of floral scents here has reached an extremely dangerous level. Pat's size is limited, so the effects will only take longer than ours.
Having one more helper around right now is better than everyone just lying around doing nothing. Pat might be my last hope; he absolutely cannot have any problems right now.
I shook Top behind me, only to find that Top had already passed out, just like Su Su and the others.
Now all that's left on the field is me, whose consciousness is starting to fade, and Pat in the sky. What should we do? What should we do?
At this point, I could no longer control my leg muscles to walk, and I had reached my limit in holding my breath. I knew that if I held my breath for too long, my heart rate would increase, or even become faster.
No matter what I do, it seems to be an unsolvable dead end!
I'm starting to lose control of my brain, so to save my energy, I just sat down on the spot.
My brain was affected, and my normally logical thinking was disrupted. This last bit of bargaining power was also turned into a complete mess.
I patted my head, trying to calm myself down. But this time, my brain didn't calm down as quickly as it usually did.
It's like a severely injured person now, struggling to stay alive, let alone continue working.
Damn it!
I slammed my fist into the ground, creating a deep crater. Since I came into this world, I have never felt so desperate. Are we all going to die here today?
Damn it, I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!
An endless sense of pent-up frustration erupted from the depths of my brain; I had experienced countless heart-stopping life-or-death situations.
Between life and death, how many ferocious beasts and enemies have fallen beneath my feet? These are nothing but flowers I could easily crush with a single step; what right do you have to take my life!
I roared in anger, my brain's nerves contracting and relaxing in sync with my violently fluctuating emotions. At that moment, another kind of pleasure surged from the depths of my mind, not the dopamine-like happiness brought by the fragrance of flowers.
Rather, it is a resonance deep within the soul. You could call it a belief, or you could say it is another bodily regulatory hormone that suppresses dopamine, endorphins.
Endorphins are morphine-like biochemical hormones secreted by the pituitary gland.
It can bind to morphine receptors, producing the same analgesic effect and euphoria as morphine and opiates, like a natural painkiller and source of pleasure produced by the body itself.
For example, when people exercise for a long time, their bodies release endorphins, which make them feel relaxed and happy, helping to reduce physical fatigue and stress.
Endorphins and dopamine have similar but different effects.
Dopamine is more like a lock; it will firmly control you with pleasure, gradually making you its slave.
Endorphins, on the other hand, can motivate you to fight against physical and mental pain and derive pleasure from the struggle. This is the only key to unlocking the shackles of your body.
My current situation falls into the latter category. When my emotions explode, positive energy causes endorphins to be released in a frenzy.
If the body is injured, it will secrete adrenaline to protect itself. The endorphins secreted by the brain now serve the same function as adrenaline.
Furthermore, endorphins are several times more potent than adrenaline. As a key hormone in the brain, they can directly bypass all brain limitations and act on the central nervous system.
Instantly, a large influx of hormones flooded the central nervous system. This included not only endorphins, but also a chain reaction of pleasure and dopamine.
At this moment, it was as if a group of unreasonable yet incredibly powerful madmen had forcibly opened the brain's command gates that had been closed by outsiders.
The moment they rushed in, I felt like an RPG rocket had been fired into my head, about to explode in the next second.
My mind is teetering on the edge of madness. Just imagine how terrifying it would be to let a group of lunatics operate a sophisticated aircraft.
However, this also brought me some benefits; at least the feeling of being bound by the poison in my body temporarily disappeared.
Although my mind is still a mess, I can now basically solve some logical problems without facing the same resistance as before.
I felt like all my energy was being mobilized by a surge of hormones, and adrenaline was definitely involved, even at an excessive level.
I don't know how long this situation can last, but we need to bring Su Su and the others over as soon as possible.
Just to be on the safe side, I took out the grayish-white mushroom I got from the sinkhole from my backpack, took a small bite, and swallowed it.
The leader had tried this before. As long as you don't eat too much of it, it won't have a significant impact on your mental state, but it can stimulate your body's potential to do things you wouldn't normally dare to do.
I don't know what price I'll pay for this situation later, but I can't worry about that now, I have to go save Su Su and the others!
After eating the mushrooms, I felt my heartbeat become much stronger. At this moment, the toxins were like garbage squeezed into a corner by a truck, completely unable to have any effect on my body.
