Chapter 240 Not Afraid of the Vines in the Protected Area

The four of them rode to Li Yajun's tree house. Li Wenxi waved and said hello: "Hello! Ah, there is no need to come down. We are just passing by. We still have things to do. I will take you away at night!"

Seeing that Li Yajun was about to come down, Li Wenxi said hurriedly.

"That's it...that, hello everyone." Li Yajun didn't come down after hearing this, because it was still very cold outside for a person like her who didn't have a blue-level suit.

"This is Ji Chaoyang, and this is Qi Xuefei. You should know both of them." Xu Xin introduced the two on the white horse to her.

"Hello." Ji Zhaoyang and Qi Xuefei rode on white horses, and nodded to Li Yajun.

"Hello, hello!" Li Yajun immediately responded.

"During this time, is there anything unusual nearby?" Xu Xin asked Li Yajun.

"No, I have been observing the surroundings, and I have not found anything unusual." Li Yajun shook his head, "In this climate, there are few flying insects and birds, and the surrounding is very quiet. The tree house is gone, you should have made it?"

"Well, it is indeed us. Since there is no one, forget it. We will go first and pick you up later."

"Okay, go get busy!"

Several people discussed it, and finally decided to take a look in the east first.

The southeast of where they are now is the place where they encountered the thick and powerful mutant vines before.

There may be some problems in this area, and there may be some special discoveries there.

The protected area of ​​Li Yajun's tree house is only six kilometers away, and they arrived at the edge of the protected area in less than ten minutes.

"Hey... Hey!"

Just when he was about to reach the edge, Ke Ke suddenly woke up from his sleep and groaned in a daze.

It slowly opened its eyes, and when it saw the scene in front of it, it immediately pushed Xu Xin's stomach with its small paws, and cried anxiously.

"Stop it, the protection zone in front is not connected."

Xu Xin touched Ke Ke's little head. He understood what Ke Ke meant, which obviously told him that there was danger ahead.

The silver king and the white horse immediately stopped at the edge of the reserve.

The Silver King once again showed some hostility, but it probably had an experience last time. This time it just bared its teeth at the outside of the reserve, and it didn't appear to be nearly losing its mind.

And the white horse on the side didn't have any unusual reaction.

"Let's try to see if the vines here are abnormal." Xu Xin rolled over from Silver King.

"Okay." Ji Chaoyang also got off his horse.

"Huh? Xu Xin, the blood lines on Silver King's body are bright again!" Just as Xu Xin was about to move forward, Li Wenxi's exclamation came from behind.

"here we go again?"

He immediately turned his head to look at King Yin, only to see the bloodstains on King Yin's body began to gradually light up again, and it became brighter and brighter, even brighter than when he was in Li Yajun's tree house last time!

Silver King looked a little tired at first, and was already lying down to rest, but after the blood streaks lit up, he seemed to have regained all his strength immediately, and stood up vigorously.

"Hey!" Ke Ke lay curiously on the blood pattern on Silver King's back, pawing at the bright red hair with her little paws.

Seeing the blood streaks on Yin Wang's body that were even redder than last time, Xu Xin touched his chin.

There was an uncertain speculation in his mind.

The bloodstains on Silver King's body were brighter than last time, probably because their current location was closer to Li Yajun's tree house, which was the place where Silver King's bloodstains lit up, closer to the place he guessed could be. An unknown object that affects mutated creatures.

As for why it suddenly lights up at their current location, it may be because this thing will not always affect mutant creatures, but will affect it once in a while.

The evidence is that the bloodstains on Yin Wang's body lighted up and then dimmed when they were running, but after they sat in Li Yajun's tree house for a while, the bloodstains on Yin Wang's body only lit up once.

After they walked far to the north, the blood streaks gradually faded again.

"Could it be..." Xu Xin turned to look at the dangerous area behind him, "Could it be that special thing is in this inaccessible dangerous area?"

"What's the matter?" Ji Zhaoyang and the two came over, and they both showed surprised expressions when they saw the bright red bloodstains on Yin Wang's body.

The scene where the blood streaks light up has been witnessed by all surviving survivors so far. During the defense war, the bloody thorns on the vines flickered on and off with the beating of the mutated plant's heart.

Ji Chaoyang was the first to react, and he looked around: "Is there something like a mutant plant heart that can enhance the ability of mutant creatures around here?"

"My guess is the same." Xu Xin responded.

Looking at the dangerous area ahead, he took a light breath and walked forward slowly.

I don't know how many steps I walked, a familiar sense of crisis suddenly rose from the bottom of my heart.

Out of the sanctuary!

He immediately retracted his feet quickly.

"Crack!"

The ground he stepped on cracked instantly, and the long-lost red dot on the map quickly lit up again.

A thick bloodthorn vine suddenly drilled out from the gap in the ground, and rushed straight to the height of ten meters!

Against the backdrop of the desolate surroundings, this thick green and blood-red vine looks very eye-catching and terrifying!

The blood thorns on the vines are actually the same as the silver king's body, they are extremely bright blood red! It is much more colorful than the bloodthorn vines last time!

Xu Xin's pupils suddenly shrank.

He thought of those powerful mutated vines last time.

Those vines entered the protected area for a moment to attack them, and after entering the protected area, the bloodstains on the vines also instantly lit up, so that the vine was not affected by the protected area!

The vines with blood streaks can stay in the reserve for a short time!

Then this vine...!

"Back, hide!"

Xu Xin yelled, and at the same time pulled Li Wenxi and threw herself backwards.

"Hey!" Coco's voice also sounded from behind at the same time.

Ji Chaoyang and Qi Xuefei were also people who had experienced countless dangers. When they saw Xu Xin's movements, they reacted instantly and subconsciously fell backwards with him!

"Whoosh—"

The sound of breaking wind resounded above several people's heads, a thick vine full of blood thorns, with a violent breaking wind sound, quickly flung past their original chest height!

"Crack!" The vine slammed heavily on a poplar tree with great speed and force, and the poplar tree immediately snapped into two pieces, making the sound of the trunk breaking.

Sure enough, the vines with bright blood streaks can attack the survivors inside the reserve!

If Xu Xin hadn't reacted quickly and brought them all down, this vine would have thrown them directly!

"What's going on?!" Qi Xuefei, who hadn't experienced those things with them, fell to the ground, exclaimed, and turned to look at the vine, "This thick vine can actually attack the inside of the reserve! "

After being thrown into the protected area once, the vine did not stop attacking, but continued to attack the instigator who drew it out—Xu Xin—quickly!

On the violently drawn vines, the bright blood thorns seemed to be stained with the blood of countless lives, making people terrified to look at!

But Xu Xin is not afraid!

He was caught off guard just now, because he was afraid that the vine would hurt the people around him, so he fell to the ground to dodge. If they were facing it head-on, how could he be afraid of such a blood-thorn vine that has not yet reached the level of an intermediate mutant creature!

The moment the vines were drawn, he quickly took out his purple-grade steel halberd from his backpack, and in conjunction with the increase in strength, he swung his arms with great force, facing the vines that were thrown towards him at a diagonal Pick and chop!

"Crack!"

As he expected, the side edge of the halberd sliced ​​across the vine without hindrance, and the blood-thorned vine was cut in two like fragile tofu.

A wave of vitality spread to the whole body along the handle of the halberd, which lifted his spirit.

The part that was cut off was still thrown towards Xu Xin rapidly by inertia.

He didn't panic at all, turned his side slightly, and easily dodged.

"boom!"

Half of the ten-centimeter-thick vine hit Xu Xin's back, making a loud noise.

At the same time, the Silver King also rushed up from behind. Li Wenxi and Ji Chaoyang on the side had already pulled out their crossbows, aiming at the root of the half of the blood thorn vine that had begun to fade and began to retract, and pulled it almost at the same time. trigger.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Two overlapping explosions sounded, and the gunpowder smoke filled the air. Half of the vine slowly poured out of the gunpowder smoke, and hit the ground heavily.

Its bright red blood thorns quickly dimmed, twisted twice on the ground, and then completely remained still.
