Chapter 40 (Three in One)
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, another monster appeared in front of him. With its mouth open, vines rushed out of its mouth towards Wu Jian's dragon face.
Wu Jian sprayed out a breath of fire. At this moment, the monster behind him grabbed his legs and pulled them hard, just in time to avoid the attack of the monster in front. The fire he sprayed out landed on the lower body of the monster, and the flames instantly burned.
Wu Jian was shocked by the weird actions of the monsters.
Aren't you of the same race? How could you kill each other?
The monster that was dragging Wu Jian also discovered that due to its own mistake, its companion was burned by flames and screaming, and it suddenly stood there in a daze.
Wu Jian took the opportunity to break free from the vines and was about to escape when he found something shiny in the pile of charcoal that his flames had turned into, which attracted his attention.
He went back, picked up the thing from the charcoal, blew off the dust, and found that it was a green energy stone.
There is no green energy stone in Wu Jian's collection yet.
Thus, the prey and predator exchanged identities.
The little dragon cub became a predator and began to extend its claws to the vine monsters throughout the forest.
Flames shot up into the sky in the forest, and he breathed fire at the surrounding vines.
As the monsters screamed, Wu Jian collected a lot of energy stones.
Perhaps the vine monster didn't realize that it was a predator, but why it became the prey of the tiny cub.
The little dragon had something to say. It was dragon's nature to like shiny things, and he had developed a collecting habit. He was just sorry that the vine monster had been defeated by him.
Wu Jian was addicted to plucking energy stones, and whenever he saw a vine, he wanted to plucking it.
The crystal forest No. 09, which was pulled out, silently mourned for the vine monsters, because they also went through the same thing.
Wu Jian had pulled enough, and just as he turned around, he saw Ankur hiding behind a tree with only half of his face exposed, staring at him sinisterly.
Wu Jian, overwhelmed with excitement, caught off guard and met Ankur's gaze.
He smiled awkwardly, took out the smallest crystal and handed it to Ankur.
"Do you want it too?"
"Gulu, food!"
The strange sound that Wu Jian heard before was actually made by Ankur. But what kind of monster has Ankur become now? Why can only half of his face be seen every time?
Feeling the flame stored in my stomach, I found that there was still one third left, which should be enough.
If Ankur merges with the vines, according to the vines' fear of urine, I have flames on my body.
, I'm not afraid at all, I can even fight with him.
Wu Jian stares at Ankur.
Ankur hid behind the tree, mumbling something unclear, until his face slowly emerged from behind the tree after a long time.
Wu Jian then understood why he had only seen half of his face twice. It turned out that he only had half of his face, and the other half had become the home of vine roots.
Half of the face is covered with wriggling green roots, which makes your scalp tingle.
Except for his head, Ankur's entire body had been taken over by green roots. His sleeves were full of wriggling vines. He looked at Wu Jian with cold eyes!
Wu Jian smiled timidly at Ankur, trying to play the emotional card, and said, "Hey, Ankur, do you miss your captain?"
The only response to Wu Jian was Ankur's roar.
Wu Jian spit out fire at it, then turned and ran away.
When Ankur's arm was burned by the flames, the vines broke instantly and new vines grew again, and the flames disappeared at this time.
Wu Jian was shocked, his mind racing.
Could it be that after the bone-eroding vines merged with Ankur's body, the vines became smarter?
Ankur kept chasing Wu Jian and the vines around him were also moving forward quickly as Ankur ran.
The vines on both sides were about to catch up with Wu Jian, so he immediately increased his flying altitude and shuttled back and forth between the trees.
Just then, he noticed that Ankur was missing from behind him.
I braked and stopped immediately, looked behind me, and Ankur was gone.
Wu Jian looked around vigilantly.
At this moment, there was a noise above my head.
Wu Jian looked up and found Ankur swooping down from the tree. At the same time, the surrounding vines rushed over and surrounded him.
At the critical moment of danger, Wing took Wu Jian to Zhan Ankur.
Wu Jian's mouth bulged, and he sprayed a flame at Ankur's half-open wriggling roots.
Ankur paused and fell straight down, making a loud noise.
Wu Jianfei glanced at Ankur from above.
At this moment, the roots shattered and split from Ankur's body, causing it to rapidly shrivel up, leaving only the head intact. A minute later, the roots merged back into Ankur's body, and his body functions began to function again.
Ankur looked in the direction Wu Jian had left, mumbling to himself, "Food—gulp!"
Wu Jian continued to travel through the forest, his mind
I kept thinking about the scene just now, and felt a little uncomfortable.
How sad Zhao Jian would feel if she found out that her teammates, after she personally sent them away, had their bodies eaten away by bone-eating vines, leaving only their heads.
Wu Jian sighed.
——
There is no concept of time when flying in the forest. Wu Jian didn't know how long he had been flying. He stopped to rest for a while and asked the computer, only then did he realize that he had been flying for six hours.
During these six hours, he did not find any markers left by Tang Keke and the others. Did he fly in the wrong direction?
Just as he was debating whether to change direction, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
Following the smell, I found a bloody energy source under a tree and some words on the tree.
—Wu Jian, we found a quest box. The optical computer tells us that someone needs help deep in the forest. Follow the clues we left behind. We'll be waiting for you in the Green Heart!
"What the hell is the Green Heart?" Wu Jian wondered.
He picked up the bloody energy stone and continued walking forward.
At this time, he found yellowing marks on the green leaves.
What's going on?
Curious, Wu Jian continued walking forward and discovered that the ground was covered with a layer of withered yellow leaves. Even the green trees had turned green and yellow. A whole area of trees in the forest had turned yellow. What was the reason?
Wu Jian continued to move forward. He saw more and more crooked and leaning trees, and some of them were left with only bare trunks.
He was just about to stop on the tree to rest and check on the condition of the tree, but he didn't expect that the branch would break when he stepped on it lightly?
Wu Jian flapped his wings and broke off a branch from the tree, which he broke easily.
Seeing the black heart shape in the middle of the tree, I was slightly stunned.
The trees are dead?
What's the reason?
Just as Wu Jian was wondering why the trees died, the tree in front of him suddenly tilted and fell, hitting the ground with a dull sound.
It was like the temporary wail of a big tree.
Wu Jian did not stop and continued to fly forward. More and more trees fell down, but he also discovered different colors among the withered yellow.
The vines wrapped around the trees are green, as if the withering of the trees has no effect on them and they are still growing vigorously.
The withered yellow and the new green now form two different colors.
Wu Jian glanced at the dents on the fallen trees. If he was not mistaken, these dents should be the vines entangled in the trees.
The impact it has caused?
Aren't vines and trees inherently interdependent? What's with that group of elves? Didn't Luer say that the vines are the guardians of this forest? If that's the case, why don't the vines have any effect when the trees wither?
With these questions, Wu Jian came to a place where vines were entwined, like layers of spider webs, densely surrounding the area and leaving no exit.
Surrounded by hollowed-out trees, he immediately realized these vines weren't companion vines, but parasitic vines that absorbed nutrients from the trees. They were common on Blue Star, and once fruit trees became entangled with them, fruit farmers would regularly remove them.
Without a regular weed remover, the trees can only slowly die under the entanglement of vines, which is a bit miserable.
At this moment, the vines suddenly attacked him.
Wu Jian spat out anger and turned and ran away.
The vines seemed to be afraid of fire as well, so they could only let Wu Jian leave.
Seeing that the vines did not catch up with him, Wu Jian went back again and circled around the vines.
He found some green things in the vines, but the vines had entangled those things, and the dense vines were superimposed on top of them, so he couldn't see clearly.
He was just curious about the green things and was not interested in them. He was only thinking about how to bypass the vines and get to the green heart.
With the sound of the tree collapsing again, the vines thinned out a bit, and the general shape of the green mass could be clearly seen. It was about the same size as an adult, and there was a layer of something like a fetal membrane on the outside to protect it from external forces.
Originally, Wu Jian found a gap that allowed him to pass through, but before leaving, he stopped for some unknown reason.
There was a voice in my heart that seemed to be saying, open it, take a look and leave!
Wu Jian touched his claws and cut a hole on the outside of the amniotic membrane.
A disgusting green mucus flowed out, like amniotic fluid, emitting a foul odor.
Wu Jian was so smoked that he couldn't open his eyes and kept crying until something fell out of them.
The model of the thing looks very much like a human, but its surface is covered with a layer of mucous membrane, so the facial features cannot be seen clearly.
Wu Jian originally wanted to tear open the membrane to see what was inside, but the membrane automatically became transparent, allowing him to see what was inside.
When Wu Jian saw the thing for the first time, he was shocked.
Bald head, deep facial features, isn't this Zhao Jian's teammate? How did he get here?
When Wu Jian saw
His ears turned into pointed elf ears, which was a little unbelievable.
"Could it be that the group of elves outside also came from this? Aren't they native to the forest, but players from other civilizations who were assimilated by the vines?"
Wu Jian felt that he was very close to the answer.
He looked at the man again and squeezed out through the gap.
After going around the vines, he thought he was still in the forest, but the vast desert before him told him that was not the case.
So, where are Tang Keke and the others?
No, they have all been assimilated by the vines, right?
Wu Jian didn't dare to imagine the result, so he could only return to the vine's nest again.
Where vines gather, there are basically no trees living, or they have fallen to the ground and become nutrients for the vines.
Relying on his small body, Wu Jian crawled into the vine nest and cut open one fetal membrane after another. A familiar yet unfamiliar face appeared in front of him.
Fortunately, so far, we haven’t seen Tang Keke and the others’ faces.
At this moment, he looked at a fetal membrane inlaid with a red energy stone. After being stunned for half a second, he cut open the fetal membrane and found that there was only a Maple Leaf Chinese with deep facial features inside. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Wu Jian got the energy stone and crawled out of the vine's nest.
Suddenly, his legs felt like they were being pricked by needles. He looked down and saw the Maple Leaf people who had been assimilated into elves. Their sharp claws grabbed his legs, and their serrated fangs bit his legs.
Wu Jian endured the pain and breathed fire at the assimilated person. When the assimilated person dodged, he quickly pulled his foot away.
"ah!"
The assimilated person screamed, and the originally quiet vines immediately attacked Wu Jian!
Wu Jian dodged left and right in the vine's nest. When he passed the corner, a hole appeared in the vine and swallowed him in.
I slid along the slippery slime to the bottom, which seemed to be the inside of the vine's nest, with many broken branches and debris everywhere.
The vines also caught up at this time. He just flew along the passage again. He was not careful and crashed into the wall with a black hole again. This time he came to a strange place.
The color of the flowers here is not green, and the trees here are also normal colors, similar to those on the Blue Star Continent.
Just when he was stunned, someone called him from behind.
"Little dragon cub, is that you?"
Wu Jian turned around and saw Tang Keke's unusually conspicuous bald head appear in front of him.
"Little dragon cub, it's really you, I
I thought I was seeing things just now."
Wu Jian looked at him and blinked, "Keke?"
Tang Keke said happily, "It's me! It seems those energy stones were not left in the wrong place. You really found them!"
Wu Jian was also happy and looked around.
Tang Keke noticed his movements and said, "Zhao Qing and the others are resting up ahead, come with me."
Wu Jian followed Tang Keke into the forest and found that there were tree houses similar to those of elves in the forest. Here he saw players from other civilizations.
Although he was confused, he did not ask. Instead, he followed Tang Keke into a house and saw Zhao Qing and Zhao Jian lying on the bed. Both of them were wrapped in gauze and their injuries looked quite serious.
Wu Jian asked, "How did they get injured like this?"
Tang Keke sighed, "Don't mention it, we've fallen into the trap of the wood-eating elves."
"ah?"
"This matter needs to start from the elf banquet. The food they gave us was actually mixed with the seeds of the bone-eating vine. This is one of the reasons why the elves did not stop us when we entered the forest.
Because they want to assimilate us as nutrients for the bone-eating vines.
It’s just that Zhao Qing, Zhao Jian and I didn’t eat the food at the banquet, and didn’t reach the assimilation stage, so the assimilated people forcibly attacked us.
After Zhao Jian's teammates were assimilated, they attacked her. Due to a moment of weakness, she became the target of the assimilated teammates' attack. At that time, Zhao Qing wanted to help her, but the result was what happened now.
I was dragging two wounded soldiers and couldn't speed up. I thought I would die at the hands of the assimilated people, but unexpectedly I fell here and was rescued by a player who claimed to be from the Sirius civilization.
"Sirius civilization?" Wu Jian turned his head to look at him.
Tang Keke smiled and said, "It's not He Nuo, just a player from the same civilization as He Nuo. I'll take you to meet him later. However, the other players from the Sirius civilization might be a bit aggressive, so just try to ignore them."
Wu Jian nodded, feeling a little disappointed.
Since the game on the 9th, until He Nuo became invisible, I no longer checked whether He Nuo was online on the computer.
I wonder if his eyes are better.
I was quite touched when I thought about how that person, despite being blind, still came to the Blue Star Civilization to see me.
It’s a pity that the video call on the bracelet’s light computer cannot be used in the game, otherwise Wu Jian really wants to cue He Nuo.
——
Finally able to stop and rest, Wu Jian took out the milk from the space and took a sip.
Tang Keke continued talking, "By the way, didn't that guy get up with you?"
Wu Jian sighed: "According to what you said, he should have assimilated earlier than the others. He may not be Ryan anymore."
Tang Keke sighed, "Oh, I guessed it. Zhao Jian's teammates were almost wiped out. She suffered a severe blow. Her spirits are very up and down. I'm worried if she can make it."
Wu Jian took out a healing fruit from the space and gave it to her. "Give it to her. Try to make her survive. Our team can't lose any more people."
Tang Keke sighed, squeezed out the juice from the fruit and gave it to Zhao Jian to drink.
Zhao Qing's condition is much better than Zhao Jian's. He just needs to lie down for a while.
It only took Wu Jian a sip of milk for Zhao Qing to wake up. He looked at Wu Jian in front of him with some surprise.
"You actually found this place?"
Wu Jian said proudly, "I'm awesome, right?"
Zhao Qing's throat was a little itchy, so he coughed twice and laughed, "You're amazing!"
Wu Jian said: "Of course, I'll show you something!"
Wu Jian's voice caught Tang Keke's attention. She asked curiously, "What is it?"
Zhao Qing also looked at Wu Jian with anticipation.
Wu Jian whetted their appetite and tapped his space bracelet. A white light flashed and a pile of green energy stones appeared on the bed.
Tang Keke was shocked and asked, "Little Dragon, how did you find so many energy stones, and they are green?"
Zhao Qing also said: "Green energy stones are rare, especially energy stones of such high quality."
Hearing this, Wu Jian said even more proudly, "Hey, this is what I plucked from the anthropomorphic vines!"
"What?"
The two said in unison.
"Really, my fire is different. They are afraid of my flames, so I beat them back and collected a bunch of energy stones."
Tang Keke said regretfully, "Why didn't I think of this? I was so busy running away that I lost so many energy stones."
Thinking of this, Tang Keke felt a pang of pain in her flesh.
Zhao Qing nodded and said, "Yes, we dealt with many anthropomorphic vines on the way. If we had thought of this, we wouldn't have lost so many energy stones."
Tang Keke said again: "But it doesn't matter. I'll go out tomorrow and see if I can pick up an energy stone."
When talking about energy stones, Wu Jian became very excited.
"I'll go with you!"
"Okay, let's go together tomorrow."
The three of them achieved their new goal and instantly became full of energy.
However, after the excitement, Wu Jian asked where this place was.
Tang Keke explained, "I heard from that player from the Sirius civilization that this is the Green Heart, the true core of the forest."
Wu Jian asked curiously, "Why haven't the vines invaded here? There's only a wall separating us."
"That's what puzzled us. These tree houses show signs of past habitation, but when players from other civilizations arrived, the people weren't there, as if they'd been gone for a long time. The players who arrived simply used them as temporary shelter. They speculated that the people living here were also elves, the true indigenous people."
Wu Jian told the two of them his previous guess.
Tang Keke frowned and said, "Zhao Qing and I also suspect that the group of elves outside were assimilated by players, but we have no definite evidence. The elves here are also missing, so we can't rule out the possibility that they were assimilated by the vines."
Wu Jian's brain cells were almost used up, so he simply gave up thinking and took out some dried meat to grind his teeth.
"Did you find the Rubik's Cube?"
"No."
There is no clue about the Rubik's Cube, and their people have suffered heavy losses. Alas!
Tang Keke sighed, "No one expected the vines to be able to assimilate so quickly. I barely had time to react before they mutated."
He and Zhao Qing were fine, but the person who found it most difficult to accept the alienation of his teammates was Zhao Jian. Otherwise, with her abilities, how could she lie in bed for a whole day and night without waking up?
Fortunately, Wu Jian found them. Otherwise, they really didn't know whether to rescue Wu Jian from the devil's cave first, or wait for Zhao Jian to wake up before picking him up. They also didn't know whether Wu Jian had been assimilated by the vines at that time.
assimilation?!
Tang Keke suddenly looked at Wu Jian and asked in confusion, "Wu Jian, didn't you eat the wood elves' food before? How come you're okay?"
Wu Jian paused for a moment, then said slowly, "Yeah, why am I alright?"
Wu Jian was puzzled.
Tang Keke and Zhao Qing looked at each other.
Tang Keke said solemnly, "Zhao Qing and I will take turns observing your physical condition in the next few days."
Wu Jian suddenly felt that the dried meat in his hand no longer tasted fragrant.
Zhao Qing soothed him, "It's okay. Maybe your body is different from ours and can automatically expel the vine's seeds?"
"Yes, yes, little
Don't be unhappy, dragon cub."
Wu Jian was not comforted. He touched his belly with a depressed look on his face.
Just as the two were thinking about how to comfort the sad little dragon, someone knocked on the door.
"Ms. Tang, are your teammates feeling better?" A man standing at the door asked Tang Keke.
Tang Keke smiled and said, "Much better. Thank you for saving us this time."
"It's okay." The man looked up and met Wu Jian's gaze, a gleam in his eyes.
"Is this He Nuo's teammate?"
Wu Jian denied it: "No."
"Um... Really? Sorry, I thought you and He Nuo were teammates..."
"He is Brother He, not a teammate." Wu Jian said seriously.
"So that's how it is."
Tang Keke took the initiative to explain to Wu Jian: "Little Dragon Cub, he will save our people, Quint."
Quint smiled gently and said, "It was just something that happened conveniently. Besides, you are the cub's friends. I'm glad that you were the ones who were saved."
Wu Jian tilted his head: "Do we know each other?"
Quint shook his head: "Of course not, but I know He Nuo."
Wu Jian's eyes lit up: "Really? Did He Nuo come to participate in the competition this time?"
"Sorry, He Nuo has always been mysterious. I don't know if he has entered the competition yet."
Wu Jian was puzzled: "Since you and He Nuo are not familiar with each other, why are you so happy to save my teammates? You are very suspicious."
Tang Keke and Zhao Qing put away the smiles on their faces and stared at Quint with indifferent expressions.
Quint explained: "Because He Nuo is so great, I admire him very much."
Wu Jian said "oh" lightly, lowered his head and gritted his teeth in disinterest.
Quint looked a little embarrassed.
Tang Keke tried to smooth things over and said, "It's like this, the little dragon cub might be tired, don't bother with him."
Quint smiled gently and said, "It's okay, I understand."
After talking with Tang Keke for a while, Quint found a reason to leave the tree house.
Tang Keke smiled and closed the door, then her expression changed immediately. She whispered to Wu Jian, "Is there something wrong with this Quint?"
Wu Jian shook his head, holding the dried meat in his mouth, and said vaguely: "I don't know, but I think he is very strange."
Putting aside the identity of his savior, Tang Keke analyzed: "He is very friendly to us, on the contrary, his companions dislike us and try to bend over backwards to harass us. We on Blue Star
Our power is not as great as that of other interstellar civilizations. To put it bluntly, some civilizations look down on us from the bottom of their hearts.
Because of your presence, we didn't receive any strange looks from other advanced civilizations we encountered. In their eyes, we were all equal, and this habit made me gradually forget our original unequal statuses.
A trace of sadness flashed in Tang Keke's eyes.
At that time, their Blue Star had just entered the interstellar age. When they first logged onto the Star Network, they saw all kinds of negative comments about civilizations. They felt very uncomfortable, but there was nothing they could do.
It wasn't until Wu Jian's appearance that other civilizations' opinions of Blue Star changed. Although there were still negative reviews, it was much better than before. In particular, due to Wu Jian's influence, many more civilizations became friendly to Blue Star.
Tang Keke sighed: "I've been too lazy. I must pick up my guard!"
Wu Jian comforted her, "Keke, don't blame yourself. Maybe it was just my illusion."
Tang Keke shook her head: "It's better to be cautious. This is a competition. If you let your guard down, you might lose your life at any time."
Wu Jian did not persuade him any further.
——
Half a day passed and Zhao Jian finally woke up.
Looking at Zhao Jian who was like a wooden man and could only shed tears, Wu Jian, who saw all this, stayed by her side silently.
Tang Keke and Zhao Qing also fell silent.
The assimilation of all of Zhao Jian's teammates was a result they had never expected.
What they didn't expect was that the elf, who seemed harmless and extremely enthusiastic towards them, would be so cruel and almost wipe out their entire group.
Zhao Jian said in a hoarse voice: "It's all my fault. If only I had reminded them more often."
In fact, at the banquet, as the team leader, Zhao Jian had of course repeatedly reminded her teammates to be careful of the elves. However, for the first time, her teammates, who had clearly listened to her, disobeyed her advice and most of them ate the food handed to them by the elves.
Afterwards, her teammates came to apologize to her, and she realized that there was something wrong with the elves. However, because Ryan saw Ankur, she was upset and neglected the situation of her teammates, which led to...
Wu Jian saw that Zhao Jian didn't cry, but her eyes were extremely sad, and he sighed in his heart.
No matter how you comfort Zhao Jian now, it's futile. Just let her be alone.
Zhao Jian was worried that her spirit would collapse, so she simply stayed to protect him.
There was no point for Wu Jian and Tang Keke to stay in the room, so they simply came out and walked around.
"I hope Zhao Jian can pull through."
Tang Keke sighed. She was very reasonable.
Understanding Zhao Jian's current feelings, she had also had this kind of experience close to despair in Training Ground No. 09, and even attempted suicide. Zhao Jian's ability to withstand should be stronger than hers.
"She will." Wu Jian was extremely sure.
Tang Keke teased Wu Jian, "How can you be so sure?"
Wu Jian's words carried a trace of pain: "My few healing fruits cannot be wasted!"
Tang Keke was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
While Wu Jian felt pain in his flesh, his right foot also ached dully. The pain was exactly where the assimilated person had bitten him.
He looked down at his feet and saw a little blood on the scale-covered area. If he didn't look closely, he wouldn't notice anything unusual.
Wu Jian wanted to bend down again to see what was wrong with his feet, but he accidentally used too much force and fell over.
The fall made him dizzy and disoriented.
Tang Keke quickly stepped forward and asked, "Little Dragon, are you okay?"
Wu Jian shook his head and said to Tang Keke, "No, it's okay."
At this moment, a scornful laugh came from behind them.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious. Such a small cub can't even roll over without falling. Isn't it like food delivered to your doorstep when it comes in? It's a pity that He Nuo still treats him like a treasure. He's so fat and ugly."
Tang Keke's face turned cold instantly.
Wu Jian poked his head out from behind Tang Keke and tilted his head to look at the trio.
"Who are you? Do we know each other? Why do you like to talk nonsense so much?"
"Who are we? I'm afraid you'll be scared to death if I tell you!"
Wu Jian opened his eyes wide: "Really? I'm so scared."
"Open your eyes wide and see, this is Master Menaozhi, the son of Count Duran of our Sirius civilization."
"puff!"
Wu Jian and Tang Keke laughed out loud at the same time.
Menao stopped his anger and said, "What are you laughing at?"
Wu Jian covered his stomach and laughed, "Ah, I suddenly feel like laughing, but I'm definitely not making fun of you, Master "Brainless". I think the name your father gave you is very nice!"
Menaozhi said proudly, "My father is the most educated man in Sirius, so of course he gave me the best name!"
Wu Jian almost laughed to death. For the first time, he suspected that except for He Nuo, the others in Sirius were not normal... Well, it seemed that He Nuo was also seriously ill when he first met him.
There must be no sane people on this planet.
Menaozhi squinted his eyes and looked at Wu Jian: "I always feel
You must be laughing at me. Little cub, I advise you not to be so stubborn. The people who can support you are not here, and you are just a toy for those people when they are bored. Do you think they will avenge you if I kill you?
Wu Jian stared at Menaozhi without saying anything.
Menaozhi said as if he had won a victory: "What? You think I'm lying? They're only interested in you temporarily. When they lose interest, do you think they'll still stand up for you?"
Wu Jian said, "Mr. Brainless, have I ever offended you?"
The sick boy in the image of Menao said, "No, I just don't like you!"
Wu Jian:?
Are you sick?
Usually, people who suffer from this disease have not experienced the harsh punishments of society, but Menaozhi is especially like a spoiled teenager who actually said such a slapping statement in the Star Live broadcast room.
Wu Jian didn't want to cause trouble. He had encountered enough problems and troubles, and didn't want to add more trouble. But Menaozhi was always jumping back and forth around his bottom line, which really made him very unhappy.
Wu Jian blinked his eyes. "Master, you're so desperate for love, are you? Why do you like people paying attention to you so much?"
"What did you say?"
Wu Jian exclaimed, "Oh, I see. You must be trying to get my attention, so you said that. But if you can hit me in the face with a star coin, I promise I'll look at you more."
Menaozhi's face turned red instantly, not because of embarrassment, but because he was angry about Wu Jian's words.
Looking at the little dragon cub proudly holding his head high, a dark light flashed in Menaozhi's eyes, and his hand touched the bracelet on his wrist.
At this time, Quint appeared and stood between the two sides.
"Everyone, stop arguing. Menaozhi, you too, why are you arguing with a cub? He's ignorant, and neither are you."
Wu Jian: ...
Menauzhi: ...
Wu Jian looked at Tang Keke, "Is he scolding me?"
Menaozhi looked at his younger brother, "Is he scolding me?"
Tang Keke & Menaozhi's younger brother: ...
Menao stopped angrily and said to Quint: "Quint, what's wrong with you? Your arms are bent outwards. You are the bodyguard my father hired for me!"
Quint smiled and said, "We are all friends. Let's not ruin the relationship over a small matter!"
Menao calmed down and said, "Who would be friends with a bunch of lowly Blue Star people?"
humble?
Wu Jian felt like the thread in his brain was broken, and he didn't care who was in front of him.
Who is he? He flew up and blew a breath of fire on his face.
Menaozhi didn't pay attention to the cub's movements and was caught off guard.
His brothers screamed, "Boss, your hair is on fire!"
"Water! Help me extinguish it, quickly! My hair!"
Sparks flew from the little dragon cub's nostrils as he snorted, "Haha, if you have nothing better to do, read more books and stop talking about being lowly all the time. Today, I'll give you a free haircut like the one on Blue Star—a big bald head!"
Menaozhi's hair could not be saved in the end and turned into a boiled egg.
Especially his eyebrows were burned off, making him look even worse than a boiled egg.
Tang Keke touched her bald head and chuckled, "That's right, we on Blue Star are still very hospitable. Look at how delicious this braised egg is."
Quint glanced at Menaozhi's bald head and couldn't help laughing.
Menaozhi was so angry that he took out his laser gun and fired two shots in Wu Jian's direction, but Quint blocked it calmly.
Coincidentally, Tang Keke also quickly took Wu Jian away from the dangerous place at this time, and the two shots missed.
"I'm going to kill them!"
"Master Menaozhi, we still need energy to find the Rubik's Cube. Please remain rational."
Menaozhi didn't listen to Quint at all. He pushed Quint away and chased in the direction Wu Jian and the others left!
Wu Jian signaled Tang Keke to put him down while he went to distract Menaozhi.
Tang Keke refused: "No, let's go together!"
Wu Jian said, "He has an energy gun. You are no match for him. I can fly. He can't do anything to me. Besides, I want to teach him a lesson."
Tang Keke said, "I'm angry too. Let's do it together. He's chasing us, so we don't have time to bother Zhao Qing and Zhao Jian."
Wu Jian had no choice but to agree, but he did not let Tang Keke hold him all the time. Instead, he shuttled back and forth in the woods to attract Menaozhi's attention.
As expected, Menaozhi only focused on Wu Jianzhui. The energy from the laser gun hit the trees, forming black holes, and many huge trees were broken in half.
The crowd chasing each other did not notice that the forest was glowing.
At this moment, a glowing root grabbed Wu Jian who was moving through the woods. The root wrapped around him several times and tied him into a ball.
Menaozhi also caught up and said with a cold smile: "Run, why don't you run?"
Wu Jian said innocently, "I was just teasing you just now, don't be angry."
“It’s too late!”
Menao stopped pulling the trigger and looked at Wu Jian as if he were a dead object!
Suddenly, a glowing vine grabbed his hand, and the gun in his hand missed and hit the roots next to Wu Jian, which actually untied Wu Jian.
Wu Jian fluttered his wings and smiled at Menao, "Thank you!"
Menaozhi: ...Ahh, so angry!
As he struggled, roots sprouted from everywhere and wrapped him up like a cocoon.
Wu Jian felt that something was wrong. Just as he turned around and was about to run away, an elf with many patterns on its face appeared in front of him and accurately grabbed his wings.
"Who dares to act so recklessly in the Green Heart?"
The movement in the forest attracted many players to appear. They were shocked to see the dense crowds of elves standing on the giant trees, holding bows and arrows, with patterns on their faces.
"Elf? How come?"
Wu Jian was also surprised as he looked at the elf who was pinching his wings and carrying a bow and arrow on his back, and was at a loss.
"Has the elf always been here?"
The elf spread its wings and flew low towards the broken tree. When it stroked the giant tree with one hand, a green light flashed, and the broken tree was entangled by vines and glued back together at the broken end.
The trees destroyed by the laser gun returned to their original state.
Wu Jian seemed to have witnessed a large-scale resurrection scene, and could not help but exclaim in surprise, which attracted the attention of the elves.
He held the little dragon cub's wings and raised his eyebrows slightly, "A cub with strange attributes..."
He didn't hear the last few words clearly because he was being held upside down by the elf, his brain was congested and his ears were buzzing.
Compared to the scene where Menaozhi almost suffocated to death, Wu Jian was simply carried upside down without losing a piece of skin on his body, which was much better than Menaozhi.
The elf looked at everyone present and said coldly, "The tree spirits are friendly to you, but you destroyed their bodies. What crime should you take?"
The players looked at the culprit, Menaozhi, with reproachful eyes.
Menaozhi struggled to explain: "No, it wasn't me, it was the cub, he did it!"
Wu Jian immediately understood that Menaozhi wanted to pass the blame.
He cried pitifully to the elf, "Brother Elf, I'm just an innocent cub. How could I possibly provoke him? Besides, he had a gun in his hand. He wanted to kill me, so I had no choice but to run away. I didn't expect him to actually shoot at the tree spirit grandfathers. I, wuwuwu!"
Menaozhi said angrily: "You are talking nonsense. It was obviously you who burned my hair..."
The elf coldly interrupted Menaozhi and said, "I don't care who's right or wrong. Destroying the tree spirit entity is wrong... Since the tree spirit pleaded for you, I'll punish you by planting tree spirit seedlings! One hundred. If you don't finish planting in three days, get out of Green Heart!"
ha?
Plant trees?
Wu Jian was confused. Wasn't this punishment a bit too simple?
——
When he actually planted the tree spirit seedling, he understood why the elf punished him by planting the seedling.
Looking at the towering tree that the two of them were hugging, Wu Jian fell into confusion.
That's it? Returning the seedlings? Do you elves have some misunderstanding about seedlings?
The thing that made Wu Jian's pupils tremble the most was yet to come.
