Chapter 211: Man-eating Plant (23)
at the same time.
Several vines that had been following them silently suddenly came forward and wrapped around the waists and legs of the last two people in the team without anyone noticing, dragging them away in an instant.
Brother Zhang reminded me before I came in that if I encountered any danger, I should scream immediately.
As soon as the two men were entangled, they started screaming.
"Oh, help!"
Hearing the urgent cry for help, everyone in the team turned around and followed.
Perhaps it was because the two people's voices were too loud, their shouting immediately startled the surrounding plants that were originally still, and they all began to tremble rapidly on the spot.
Lan Jin felt the trembling of the plants around him while running, but he was not too scared. After all, what was there to be afraid of in broad daylight? But if it was at night, it would be completely different.
You can't think about this kind of thing. The moment you think about it, your steps slow down. Lan Jin and Ling Jiang quickly rushed to the front, following the traces of the vines dragging, and found the two people who were dragged away.
However, when she and Ling Jiang found the two people, the vines had already been taken back, and the two people had been fed into the mouth of the carnivorous plant.
There were exactly two carnivorous plants. Two legs were struggling and dangling outside the mouth of one, and the other was biting a person horizontally in its mouth, with the body inside and the head and feet all exposed outside.
As soon as he saw Lan Jin and Ling Jiang coming over, he immediately shouted, "Help, help me!"
However, upon hearing his voice, the Piranha Plant's mouth tightened again, causing the person it bit to feel immense pain.
"ah."
Lan Jin stepped forward quickly and used his lightning ability first, but the electrocuted plants felt pain and bit the man in their mouths even harder.
The Venus flytrap was not tall. Lan Jin first stepped on the stone, then jumped onto its head, and used the Ning Zi Ring to transform into a lightning spike, which immediately poked the flower stem of the plant.
But this plant seemed to have bitten something and would not let go, and it held the person in its mouth much tighter again.
Lan Jin panicked. If he was bitten a few more times, this man might be beyond saving.
On the other side, Ling Jiang's situation was not much better than hers. Ling Jiang first used the bracelet to transform into sharp claws and clawed at the roots of the Piranha Plant. She thought that her tough claws could cut the plant in one go, but her claws had no effect on the Piranha Plant. The flower didn't even feel any pain, and there was not a single scar left on its roots.
Ling Jiang quickly used his ice ability to freeze the plant, but since the roots could not move, his mouth could only bite tighter, and the pair of legs exposed outside could only struggle even more because of the pain.
Zhang Ge and the others arrived a little later and witnessed the entire fight between the two men. He was immediately shocked and quickly said, "You two, come down, Lao Gao, set fire to it."
Ling Jiang and Lan Jin quickly jumped off the head of the Piranha Plant, and Lao Gao immediately used his fire ability on the Piranha Plant, setting the roots of the plant on fire.
These foods were really afraid of fire. After Lao Gao continued to burn them for a while, the mouths that were originally tightly biting the two people loosened up after a while, and the two people who had not had time to swallow them also fell to the ground.
After seeing the people coming out, Lao Gao quickly retracted his superpowers. He had no other choice but to get the two people out of the mouth of the carnivorous plant. It took him quite a while, and cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead. If he didn't retract his superpowers, he would probably fall to the ground.
But even after burning for so long, the plant was dying, but still had a breath of life. Lao Gao was panting, looking at Brother Zhang with a puzzled look, and asked, "Are you sure you can kill this plant with fire? I'm the only one here with fire abilities. Even if you want to kill me, I can't burn this lush forest."
"We brought gasoline because the plants here need supernatural fire to burn, so it's useless for us to do it alone. If gasoline doesn't work, we can just blow up the place. But the first thing we need to do is find the people from the base team."
And you have to place the bomb in the center of the plant, otherwise you won't be able to use the bomb at all.
Brother Zhang had made all the necessary preparations before he came. Burning was only his first idea. If that didn't work, he would have a backup plan. He firmly believed that nothing was immune to explosions. But no matter what, he had to find the special ability team at the base first, otherwise everything else would be in vain. However, given the current situation, Brother Zhang felt that these people were in great danger.
"Look, what is that? It looks so familiar."
Someone behind him suddenly shouted loudly.
Brother Zhang looked in the direction the man pointed. In the corner, wasn't that the backpack of the superpower team? It was the same model they were carrying. Lan Jin stepped forward and used his whip to hook the bag over to Brother Zhang. After handing it to Brother Zhang for inspection, his previous thought was immediately confirmed.
"This is the bag of our team member. Logically, there should be three people coming in, but there is only one bag."
Lao Gao said, "Could they have gotten separated? If one of them gets caught, the other two will definitely chase after us, just like we did. There's no way there's only one bag here."
Brother Zhang looked at the dead leaves under the Piranha Plant and said, "Let's deal with these two first. Let's search around here and see if there's anything under the leaves."
After saying this, Brother Zhang took out the map and carefully surveyed the approximate location. It was indeed very similar to their last signal location. He said, "This area is also within the signal location. Everyone, search the area carefully."
The dying carnivorous plant was easy to deal with. After being surrounded and attacked with ordinary bows, it fell to the ground, and then it was cut in half with a knife, which directly ended its last struggle.
In the dead leaves beneath the two carnivorous plants, they actually found a bag belonging to a member of the base's special power team. However, there was no identification document. Lao Gao consoled them, saying, "Maybe it was someone who came here earlier. Let's look for it again. We should be able to find it."
Brother Zhang has seen too many such scenes, so why would he need Lao Gao's comfort? "At least there's still one person. Let's look for him again. Maybe we can find him, even just one."
There were already quite a few of them, so it was easy to find traces in such a small area. After finding no new clues, everyone planned to look elsewhere.
But who knew that just as they were about to leave, the vines stretched out their claws towards them again and hooked Huang Jinghe and Lao Gao's waists.
But if it were the two people from the claws, there would really be nothing to worry about. However, in order to prevent any accidents, the group still followed them very nervously.
Lao Gao and Huang Jinghe were dragged by vines all the way to a place where man-eating plants grew. However, there were three man-eating plants here. Seeing the three man-eating plants stretching out their evil mouths towards him at the same time, Lao Gao quickly used his fire ability to burn them, and the three mouths immediately retreated.
