The trunk of the exotic tree exposed outside the garage is very thick, and it takes at least eight people holding hands to encircle it.
Compared with such a thick trunk, the crown of the strange tree growing above the community can be said to be extremely short and completely inconsistent with the tree body.
"This tree grew in one day? This is... too scary."
Some people were amazed.
"More than that. Didn't you hear what that guy said just now? He just came to the garage at noon. If the tree was here at the time, he couldn't have failed to notice it."
"So this tree only grew up in the afternoon!?"
"How long has it been since then?"
"Six hours at most. We still underestimated the strange tree. It has a strong growth ability. Everyone, be careful and pay attention to safety. We will save people first, then destroy the tree. Please be careful not to disturb it if possible. Fire-type ability users should not take action for the time being. Collect your strength first and act according to instructions."
The entrance and exit of the underground garage are covered with branches and leaves above and on the sides, making it look lush and green, but the entrance and exit are not completely blocked.
The second team stayed outside to provide support while the first team went into the underground garage to rescue people.
Luo Zheyu looked at the entrance to the garage, then looked at Wen Jin who was standing outside, observing the strange tree, trying to find its weakness.
Then……
Without hesitation, he turned and entered the underground garage.
…………
It was dimly lit in the garage. A team of people turned on their flashlights, lined up vertically, and groped their way forward carefully, trying their best to avoid touching branches and leaves.
They didn't know if this would not alarm the strange tree, but there was no other way; the people had to be saved.
Even if this strange tree deliberately let them in and wanted to catch them in a trap, they had to break in.
Luo Zheyu followed slowly behind, wanting to burn the strange tree to ashes with a fire, but the people had not been rescued yet, and the tree was also very strange. Its trunk was so big, but there was not even a root system to be found outside. He could only endure it for the time being.
The gaps left between the branches in the underground garage were definitely not meant to make way for everyone, so as you walk to the back, the gaps become smaller and smaller, until the road ahead is tightly wrapped by layers of tightly wrapped branches and leaves, and you can no longer move forward even a step.
"What should we do, Captain?"
The captain of the first team was a tall young man, who was stern and looked serious.
But it also makes people feel particularly reliable.
He stretched out his palm and placed it in front of his chest to stop the team members from making any more noise. He frowned and listened carefully.
"Did you hear that?"
"What?"
"It was a fine, grinding sound, the same as the one that person described."
He looked at the wall of trees blocking the road in front of him.
"Be alert, let's break out of here."
Most of the trapped people are behind this wall of trees.
The captain of a team lightly touched the tree wall with his hand, and an extreme chill slowly emanated from his hand. The chill quickly spread over the tree wall, and white frost appeared on a large area of branches and leaves. In just three seconds, an oval shape two meters high and one and a half meters wide was frozen out.
The cold grew stronger, and the branches and leaves within the oval were soon frozen hard and turned into ice.
The branches around noticed something and there was a slight commotion, but before any action could take place, the captain's fist was wrapped in an ice glove. He clenched his fist and punched hard on the oval-shaped tree wall that had been frozen into ice.
“Crack…”
The ice cracked, carrying with it the frozen branches and leaves inside.
Another punch landed quickly on the frozen oval.
“Crack…”
“Crack…”
He threw punch after punch so fast that his hands' shadows were almost invisible.
If he stopped being a team captain and took up boxing, he must have great talent.
As the last circle fell, the oval-shaped ice block was completely shattered, and countless pieces of debris fell to the ground.
The strange tree no longer pretended to be an ordinary tree. It finally made a move, and its thick branches flew towards it at an extremely fast speed.
The captain waved his hand without even turning his head.
A ball of cold air flew out from his hand and flew towards the branches of the strange tree.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the branch was immediately covered with frost and was frozen stiff in place, unable to move forward an inch.
