Chapter 351: The Roots of the Mountains

"It's not a mountain?"

"What strange thing are you talking about?"

Qingyi was cleaning the ground when she heard Lindsay's reminder.

She felt that this statement was a bit inexplicable, but out of the caution and seriousness of a scholar, she still probed her perception underground.

"Isn't this... just an ordinary mountain?"

Qingyi didn't notice even the slightest difference.

In her eyes, the mountain under her feet, like the surrounding land, has been sitting steadily on the land base for thousands of years.

No matter how carefully she explored.

In addition to the direction of the forest veins, there was no other discovery.

Qingyi then cast a questioning look at Lindsay:

"Is there something wrong with your [Game Player] skills? I don't feel anything wrong."

Lindsay immediately explained:

"Ms. Qingyi, I can explore the terrain structure within a certain range."

"The mountain below is not a solid body, and it is filled with some...wood-like things?"

Lindsay answered.

At the same time, he continued to control the [Map] skill.

At this moment, he and Qingyi were at the edge of the mountain.

But as the map coverage area expanded, the reconnaissance range had already exceeded the mountain, and the objects filled in the mountain also disappeared.

But this situation, on the contrary, caused a bigger problem!

Even if the reconnaissance range crossed the mountain range, the green covering the [map] still did not disappear.

Instead, it continued to extend into the distance, and a faint arc appeared.

Until Lindsay expanded the map range to the maximum range currently acceptable, he could only see a seemingly endless green.

"..."

Faced with such a reality.

Lindsay was a little confused for a while.

But soon, an exaggerated hypothesis emerged in his mind.

The [map] skill will only display two things, the first is the reconnaissance terrain itself, and the second is the marks of various targets.

At present, the former does not match the actual situation detected.

Then it can only be the second one.

"Gudong——"

Lindsay swallowed dryly, his left eyelid twitched, and the expression on his face began to tense.

Green means that this huge creature is a friendly unit.

But judging from the coverage area...

"How big is this thing?"

Linsey thought of his previous experience.

If the underground mycelium can be called a behemoth covering an area of ​​several kilometers.

Then compared with the target Linsey detected at this moment.

The two sides are just like the gap between ants and elephants!

In this world with source power, a life with such a huge body may not even be described by the power of the seventh stage.

"..."

"Underground wood, what's so surprising about this?"

When Linsey was surprised, Qingyi beside him also took action.

She used her skills, and the powerful force penetrated into the surrounding ground like spring rain, and the soil under their feet began to surge.

The cold inorganic matter seemed to have life.

The soil turned and moved, leaving a huge gap in front of Linsey and Qingyi. Even a downward slope was made in a very humane way to facilitate them to walk down and check.

Huh——

At this time, a gust of night wind just blew through the restless woods.

At the same time, the dark clouds were dispersed, revealing the bright moonlight in the sky, and the silver light was sprinkled on the huge crack more than ten meters deep.

The brown-yellow wood buried deep underground was exposed in front of the two people.

Lindsay and Qingyi both have knowledge of botany, and they can tell at a glance that this is the root of a certain plant.

But compared with normal plants.

This root is too thick and large, and the several-meter-wide crack that has surged open can't even show its full appearance and trend!

Qingyi didn't even walk down the path she opened up.

She turned around on the spot and looked at Lindsay with an incredible look:

"Are all the mountains under our feet full of this kind of roots?"

Lindsay nodded:

"At least it's like this in my reconnaissance range."

"..."

Qingyi was speechless.

In addition to being shocked by the huge size of the root, she was even more surprised by the failure of her perception ability.

Qingyi's source type is life source.

The skill is inherited from the School of Life in Volcano City, and it follows the path of unity under the scholar system. This skill develops deeply, and can even accommodate everything under the same concept of life.

Based on this ability.

Qingyi's perception of life is extremely accurate.

But if Lindsay hadn't reminded her today, she wouldn't even have the chance to realize that there was such an exaggerated behemoth buried in the mountain under her feet!

To put it bluntly, it was simply a joke on Qingyi's ability.

The only possible explanation.

It is that the life represented by this tree root is far beyond Qingyi's realm, which is why she can't detect the other party's existence.

Qingyi sorted out her thoughts and asked herself in her heart:

"Can a seventh-stage existence do this kind of thing?"

"..."

She immediately had the answer.

- Impossible.

If the strength goes up further, it can only be the eighth stage...

The life scholar stood in place, frowning.

Lindsay broke the silence at the right time:

"Ms. Qingyi, what do you think of this thing?"

Out of his understanding of the Awakened One and the Source, Qing Yao was shocked by what the things in front of him meant.

But heard Lindsay ask.

However, out of a scholar's instinct, she made a more realistic theoretical analysis:

"The volume of plant roots often corresponds to the surface part."

"Since its roots can reach the scale of a mountain, its volume on the ground is also absolutely..."

Qingzhao paused.

She realized what the result she had inferred was, and the rational inference was in conflict with the actual result.

"This is impossible!"

"Our exploration of the courtyard in the forest is indeed not precise enough, but it will not miss such a huge life!"

The people who pioneered the world of forest gardens.

Three large cities were built with the road across the entire world as the central axis.

At the same time, there are hundreds of small villages or towns surrounding the three cities, spreading throughout the world.

A variety of explorations and adventures are indispensable during this period.

Even though it is relatively preliminary and rough, the map of the entire world has been roughly summarized.

Amidst so much exploration and discovery.

There is absolutely no life that can be so huge!

There can't be a problem with exploring the world, right?

All kinds of doubts came to mind one after another. Qing Yao had already clenched his hands and even considered sending a message to Volcano City.

at this time.

Lindsay half reminded and half asked in confusion:

"Do you think it might be related to the ley lines of the forest?"

"..."

"let me try."

Qing Yao closed his eyes and opened his perception to the maximum.

The result was just as Lindsay suspected.

The trend of the mountain peaks follows the direction of the earth's veins, and also overlaps perfectly with the huge tree roots!
