Chapter 86 The game continues
In the camera shot from the stadium, Jiang Ning did not move for a long time. She was trying to determine whether this green heart was the source of pollution.
Based on the environment she had seen along the way, she could even temporarily classify the green heart as "beneficial to humans".
But if all pollution sources are like this, can they still be called pollution sources?
Jiang Ning's thoughts fell into chaos.
After a long time, she opened her mouth and asked the people next to her: "Has anyone seen the source of pollution of N001?"
She asked this question without warning. Zhou Shuai pointed in front of him and was about to say "Isn't this it?", but the words were held back at the tip of his tongue.
This is obviously nonsense. Jiang Ning would not ask knowingly.
Unless the dirty heart he saw in front of him was not the source of pollution.
"No." Wen Renchao shook his head. "I came here with a civilian team more than half a month ago, and I didn't see the source of pollution."
He was short of money at that time, and he had been to most of the polluted areas of Red Star, and naturally he had been to the N001 polluted area.
"I seem to have seen it in the previous competition video." After asking this question, Cheng Yao recalled something, "I remember it was a mushroom."
Because it was too specific, it was very memorable, and Cheng Yao remembered it all at once.
"But I watched the video many years ago. The pollution source will change. There is a law of the jungle in the pollution area. Maybe other mutant species will grow stronger and devour the original pollution source, and then grow into a new pollution source again." Cheng Yao said.
"Why are you asking this?" Cheng Yao rolled his eyes. "Do you suspect it is not the pollution source?"
Jiang Ning nodded lightly.
Cheng Yao: "Even if it is not the pollution source, it can at least prove that it is a mutant, and it can basically be confirmed that it is the mutant root we are looking for."
Cheng Yao felt that Jiang Ning was an emotional person. She was shocked to see this huge heart nourishing this area, so much so that she lost her basic judgment of mutants.
Several people in the arena were still hesitating, and Feng Yanzi, who was on the main judges' panel, was also undecided.
So she chose to report the matter and let higher-level leaders decide whether the competition should continue.
She directly called her direct leader, Principal Batu.
Ring ring ring -
the phone rang for a few seconds before it was connected.
Although Principal Batu was not at the scene, he also had a copy of the video sent back by the micro-camera.
"What's the matter?" Principal Batu asked.
Feng Yanzi: "Something went wrong in the arena. A freshman found a strange thing in the arena. The N001 contaminated area has been repaired, and it is suspected to be related to it."
Feng Yanzi's wording was very ambiguous.
She used the words "strange thing" and "suspected".
Feng Yanzi: "Do we need to stop the competition and let the army investigate?"
"No."
Feng Yanzi paused.
It was not Principal Batu who said this, but someone else.
There were other people beside Principal Batu.
Seeing that Feng Yanzi was slow to respond, the other party explained: "I am from the Red Star Pollution Monitoring Center. We have recently monitored that the pollution concentration in the N001 pollution area is gradually increasing. We suspect that the source of pollution has grown again."
Under normal circumstances, people's expressions will reflect a lot of information. Feng Yanzi was talking on the phone in public, so her expression could not be too rich. She just flashed her eyes.
The data of the monitoring center cannot be faked.
So the N001 area has not evolved, but the pollution has become more serious?
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Isn't it dangerous for the freshmen inside?" Feng Yanzi said with a hint of blame.
The man at the monitoring center was silent for two seconds: "Sorry, we just detected it these two days. After we received the data, we immediately came to find Principal Batu."
His words explained the reason why he was here.
"In order to avoid unnecessary panic, my suggestion is not to terminate the competition." He said calmly, "The people from the military district are also inside. If something really happens, they can also protect them."
The freshman supernatural competition is broadcast live simultaneously. Not only people in Semir College are paying attention, but many residents of Red Star are also paying attention.
Once the competition is terminated, it will inevitably cause panic and suspicion among the crowd.
Feng Yanzi thought in her heart.
She heard the person from the pollution monitoring center chuckle on the phone again: "Besides, we have only detected an increase in pollution concentration, and it is not certain whether there is any danger."
Think about the bright side, there is only one and a half days left before the competition.
Feng Yanzi finally listened to his advice and did not terminate the competition. After hanging up the phone, she prayed in her heart that nothing would happen.
When she returned to the judges' seat, everyone's eyes were looking at her.
At this moment, Feng Yanzi sighed deeply in her heart. She deeply felt what it meant that the greater the responsibility, the greater the pressure.
This damn chief judge, no matter what he said, she would not run for election again next year!
She glanced at everyone, borrowed Qiu Yueli's microphone, and said expressionlessly: "The game continues."
Feng Yanzi did not end the game, which means that there is something wrong with the green heart. Jiang Ning and the other six are now on the heart. Isn't it very dangerous?
Everyone's heart was in their throat for a while.
Back to the arena.
Jiang Ning and Cheng Yao each made a statement, and the six-person team began to split into two groups.
Wei Shengyu, Wen Renchao and Xiao Pang stood firmly on Jiang Ning's side, and Zhou Shuai, persuaded by Cheng Yao, stood in Cheng Yao's camp.
Four to two, this cooperation without suspense could not continue.
Cheng Yao was not a stubborn person. With only her and Zhou Shuai, there was no chance of winning against this dirty mind, so she decided to give up.
Since they couldn't attack it, they could only ignore it.
The six of them stayed in the air above the swamp for a while, and then prepared to leave. They
had just flown a few meters away from the mutant tree.
Suddenly,
a black figure emerged from the bushes on the other side of the swamp.
He quickly moved towards the group of people, no... not towards the group of people, but towards the dirty heart below.
Kuilun?
Jiang Ning recognized him.
It was him again, what did he want to do?
Jiang Ning frowned, not understanding many of this man's actions.
Kuilun did not make any unnecessary movements, and did not seem to notice Jiang Ning and the others not far away.
He flew over the mutant tree and stood where the group of people had just stopped.
"Kuilun." Jiang Ning called him.
He heard it and looked up at Jiang Ning.
But the next second, he just flew straight towards the water under the tree.
You can see the space under the swamp, but that doesn't mean people can go in directly.
'Bang--'
The moment Kuiren touched the water, he suddenly exploded, his body was blown to pieces, and the broken flesh was all over the ground.
If Jiang Ning and others hadn't reacted quickly and opened the perception barrier in advance, they would have been affected by it.
The scene was so shocking that no one could react. It wasn't
until a strong smell of blood drifted under the noses of several people that they realized that a living person had died in front of them.
'Guff.'
The first one who couldn't stand it was the little fat boy who had the least courage. He tried to vomit for a few seconds, but found that he couldn't vomit anything. That's
right. He has been eating nutrient solution for the past five days. There is no food in his stomach. How could he vomit?
"Did it do that?" Wei Shengyu looked at the green heart underneath and asked uncertainly.
She remembered that Jiang Ning had mentioned before that Cheng Yao's emotions were affected by the mutated roots. Those mutated roots were all related to the heart. The influence of the heart should be greater than that of the mutated roots.
Jiang Ning shook her head.
They have been here much longer than Kui Lun, and she didn't feel affected. She even felt that the heart didn't mean to attack them.
Kui Lun has always been a very strange person. Why did he suddenly do this?
Jiang Ning felt the ground tremble.
Obviously, compared to pondering the reason for Kuilun's self-destruction, there is a more important thing here that deserves their attention.
The heart is angry.
Kuilun's behavior angered it, and it is about to attack everyone.
Bang, bang, bang.
It is the sound of the heart beating violently.
Bang, bang, bang.
Jiang Ning listened carefully again, and she felt that the sound was very similar to the beating of a person's heart under extreme anger.
The peaceful scene around suddenly changed, and the largest abnormality in the middle showed its original fangs, and countless leaves and vines quickly pulled towards the direction of the six people.
Jiang Ning smiled bitterly, and now they had no choice but to fight.
Several people dodged quickly.
Just the mutant tree in front of her was 3S level. She couldn't even imagine how terrible the level of the heart-dirty tree below was.
"Cover me, I'm going to chop it down!" Cheng Yao showed his bloody side.
At this time, everyone had the same goal: to stay alive.
If they didn't solve it, as long as they were still in the stadium, they would be "wanted" by it wherever they went.
Zhou Shuai, Wei Shengyu and Wen Renchao all took their positions.
Jiang Ning couldn't fly, and Xiao Pang had no ability to protect himself. The two of them stood at the back consciously, just to avoid causing trouble for the others.
What Feng Yanzi was most worried about happened.
Someone died in the stadium, and the nature of this was completely different.
She contacted Cui Lai Te at the competition venue and asked him to send someone to help the six people deal with the mutant plants.
Those people's spiritual power levels were not low, and it would be a pity if any of them died.
After Cui Lai Te learned the details of the scene, he personally led a team to the location of the few people.
...
With the help of someone working underneath, even Wei Shengyu and his two 3S and two double Ss could not get close to the mutant tree.
Jiang Ning hesitated to take action, she was observing the mutant tree.
The mutant tree belongs to the large tree family, a banyan tree about 20 meters high, with very developed aerial roots, some of which even hang in the air, and its tree is also full of vines.
"......Sister, why don't you take action." The little fat man called her sister. After a few days of getting along, he could feel that Jiang Ning was more powerful than those people over there.
As long as she summoned a few plants, she could kill most of the monsters in seconds.
The little fat man also vaguely knew that Jiang Ning brought him along because his supernatural powers were beneficial to her.
He was also happy to be just an auxiliary pendant.
Anyway, it doesn't matter who they assist, and it would be better to assist a powerful person.
The little fat man has been waiting for her summons.
Jiang Ning's eyes moved with the people fighting over there. After an unknown amount of time, the little fat man finally heard her speak.
"Release your supernatural power."
The little fat man: "Okay!"
He knew that Jiang Ning was finally ready to take action.
