Chapter 548 Fungus Cave Trap
"I didn't see it after I woke up." Xu Huo said: "There is something wrong with this fog forest."
"No wonder I fell asleep so quickly." Zhuo Wangsun couldn't help but think to the disadvantage, "Did Xin Hui bring us here on purpose?"
He said as he took out his navigator, "Can she be the one who moved her hands?"
Xu Huo took out a new navigation device from the luggage compartment, "I'm fine."
Zhuo Wangsun was a little surprised and then said, "You did it on purpose. Have you started to doubt her?"
"She said she is not a player in Joker City, but she knows a lot about cleaning the area. She can match the fungus in the river by just seeing other soldiers eating dried mushrooms. This is too far-fetched. Even if she has a great observation ability, she will not drink the river water directly for caution unless she has known that there is no problem with the river water." Xu Huo explained.
Zhuo Wangsun thought, "No wonder she was not in a hurry when we told her the truth about the cleaning area, and planned to continue the cleaning mission. It seems that she had already known the inside story... Could she be the spy sent in by Joker City, and the purpose is to clear us who discovered the truth?"
Xu Huo was not sure about this, but he had already used a "friendly handkerchief" to catch up with her even if someone ran away first.
Following Xin Hui's direction, the two went deeper into the fog forest. There were still people around them, but whenever they got closer, they disappeared, without stopping or attacking, and even tracking was perfunctory.
"It's not a good idea for these people to follow us all the time." Zhuo Wangsun lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you notice that there are more and more people?"
"They are not like living people." Xu Huo said in a deep voice: "It may be props or mutated plants in the fog forest. As long as it does not interfere with us, there will be no problem."
They had already explored the way before. Even if they threw a branch over, the figures would quickly move away, with no attack power at all, so they became more and more bold in their actions.
Seeing that he was about to catch up with Xin Hui, a row of figures suddenly appeared in front of him. He waited in front of him like a ghost without dodging. Xu Huo felt that these figures were different from the figures just now, so he grabbed the strings in advance and took off. Zhuo Wangsun couldn't help but hit him directly!
It no longer disappears like the shadows before. Those "people" stood there straight. Zhuo Wangsun clashed with a "clang" sound, and then fell into a vast white mycelium without even making any sound.
The kite string flew out the moment he rolled down, probably because it had penetrated the person. However, after a distance, Zhuo Wangsun suddenly stopped in place, and Xu Huo failed to pull the person up.
The fog was too big and I couldn't see clearly. He could only put the micro monitor in. In the faint light, he saw a large empty bag under the mycelium, layer by layer, all composed of mycelium. The edge of the hole that Zhuo Wangsun in the middle was not broken, but like a stretched film bag, hanging directly to the depths below.
The space below is obviously more than ten or twenty meters long. Zhuo Wangsun was wrapped in mycelium and stuck in the "mycelium bag". The more he struggled, the tighter he was.
Through the gaps in the mycelium film, you can also see that the ground is covered with things like rhizomes, veins, and the back of the film is covered like blood vessels. There are many connection points in the middle, and roots grow on them, and the roots are connected to other films. Such layers of interlaced and hanging films are connected to each other, looking like a huge mycelium cave.
Just looking at Zhuo Wangsun, even if he couldn't even speak, he knew that the mycelium was very sticky. Xu Huo lowered the height and took out a lighter to bake the myceliums that were like humans standing on the ground. Although the reaction was very slow, he did not react at all. So he took a few pieces of weaving cloth and lit it and threw it down.
As soon as the fire broke out, the hanging mycelium immediately retracted in all directions, and Zhuo Wangsun was able to struggle out of the silk cocoon. He grabbed the kite string and climbed upwards actively.
The weaving cloth below has not been burned yet, and it has fallen layer by layer against the mycelium film, and it has been deeper for dozens of meters until the fire is extinguished and has not yet reached the end.
"There is actually a mycelium hole underneath!" Zhuo Wangsun looked scared, "Are you sure Xin Hui is here?"
The direction is definitely correct, but I don’t know where Xin Hui walked from.
"There may be an authentic tunnel nearby." I have seen people living in the cracks in the ground before.
"We definitely can't go down from here, let's find it nearby." Zhuo Wangsun said.
Xu Huo was sure that Xin Hui had reached the underground, but he did not find any special marks along the way. He was not sure what path she was walking, so he could only search nearby slowly.
During this period, there were still "persons" following them.
Now that we know that this is just a kind of mycelium, Zhuo Wangsun said: "These figures do not seem to appear randomly, but are always following us. After the fungi mutates, they will still react to living people. It is unheard of."
"They are driving us in one direction." Xu Huo said: "Plants also have predation instincts, and many fungi use rotten animal corpses as nutrients."
After taking a look at the "silhouette" that was jumping nearby, he decided to walk towards the edge of the foggy forest.
In any case, the more you go, the more dangerous it will be.
"I won't look for Xin Hui anymore?" Zhuo Wangsun asked.
"Looking for her is second," Xu Huo replied. He was just curious about Xin Hui's secrets. "She wants to continue to clean up the alien species and will definitely leave the fog forest. The same is true when she goes out to wait for her."
Zhuo Wangsun nodded.
The two then marched outside the fog forest. Perhaps because of the failure of "attachment", the mycelium figures gradually decreased in number. When they reached the edge of the fog forest, the figures disappeared.
With the navigation device in hand, they originally planned to continue walking towards the Clown City along the fog forest, but unexpectedly, the mycelium disappeared shortly after the mycelium disappeared, and the mycelium on the ground began to wriggle. The snow-white filaments twisted like insects, and spewed out thin lines on a large area, which soon covered the grass on the ground and turned a large area of jungle white.
At the same time, a rustling sound sounded in the fog forest, as if eating or eroding, and soon a green mist oozed out from the ground.
Xu Huo quickly left the ground and took Zhuo Wangsun with him.
After completely leaving the woods, the heavy fog inside has been replaced by green fog, which is very strange under the night.
"No wonder even the alien species refused to enter." Zhuo Wangsun sighed.
Xin Hui had already left the positioning range of the props, Xu Huo's face darkened, and he turned around and walked away: "Go ahead and block her."
The two of them went through the fog forest without stopping. They encountered alien species twice on the road, but they were solved by him as soon as they met. They didn't even stop and delayed their time. It seemed that there was no difference between cutting melons and vegetables, which made Zhuo Wangsun, who was following behind, look at him frequently, and finally couldn't help asking: "Are you really a D-level player?"
