The End of the World: Mountain and Sea Disasters

Chapter 110 Green Fortress

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Yu Ke rode the frightened deer into the depths of the forest.

The lead-gray clouds were still rolling in the sky, and the cold wind was blowing in the forest, rustling the branches and leaves.

He turned on his watch to check the weather forecast, and saw the rain sign, and Yu Ke spitted.

He brushed the Forest Spirit Mark with his left hand, took out a raincoat from it and put it on the outside, as a preparation in advance.

The upgrade of the Forest Spirit Mark undoubtedly brought great convenience to Yu Ke.

The internal space can not only be used to store weapons and equipment, but also to prepare some sundries that may come in handy in advance, and this is only one of the abilities of the Forest Spirit Mark.

He reached out and touched the neck of the frightened deer, helping it to pick two dead leaves between its hair.

The light green light penetrated into the frightened deer with Yu Ke's movements, making its steps lighter.

This is another ability brought by the upgrade of the Forest Spirit Mark. The natural energy contained in it is no longer just passively activated. Yu Ke can mobilize it with his own will.

In general, this energy has three main effects. Needless to say, healing injuries and resisting darkness are of course used by Yu Ke when he was on the farm. The last effect was discovered by him accidentally in the past two days.

Strengthen the body!

Earlier, he was seriously injured by the dragon-headed zombie in the underground palace of the temple. If it weren't for the Forest Spirit mobilizing the majestic natural energy in the underground palace to heal his injuries, it would be a problem whether Yu Ke could return to the patrol camp smoothly.

At that time, Yu Ke felt that his body had undergone some changes in the restoration of natural vitality.

During the exercise in the past two days, Yu Ke was finally able to confirm that his physical fitness had been significantly improved in all aspects.

There is no doubt that after the majestic natural vitality was injected into Yu Ke's body, his state was close to washing his tendons and marrow, especially his recovery ability. When Yu Ke was in the wilderness, his efficiency was comparable to "breathing to recover blood".

Because of this, Yu Ke massaged the frightened deer and the wind chime from time to time, and injected natural vitality into their bodies.

The effect is obvious.

The former's hair has turned partially white, and it has begun to transform into the appearance of the frightened deer king, and the latter's growth is even stronger.

If it can be persisted for a long time, it may cause a qualitative change.

Ding~ Ding~

The message prompt sound from the watch interrupted Yu Ke's thinking. It was a communication request from the Forestry Protection Bureau.

Because the target of this investigation is the abnormal environment area deep in the Jinghu Forest, the Forestry Protection Bureau has asked a botanical expert to be on standby in advance, and asked him to contact Yu Ke and check the situation in the abnormal area.

Taking out the Bluetooth headset, Yu Ke answered the call, adjusted the camera on his shoulder, and asked,

"How is the video signal? Can you see it?"

It stands to reason that if you go deep into the Jinghu Forest, you will soon lose the communication signal. However, as a special consultant, the Forestry Bureau has sent a complete set of satellite communication equipment that is usually only used by the patrol team, considering his future scope of action.

Compared with waiting for the video to be sent to the Forestry Bureau for analysis, this kind of instant close-range detection can undoubtedly find more detailed information. If there is any discovery, it can also be investigated on the spot, so as not to waste time to run again.

"Professor Xu, you can see it clearly. Now you can introduce the situation to Yu Ke."

At this time, inside the Forestry Bureau, the team members responsible for this operation were gathered in front of the screen, and the team leader handed the microphone to the old professor next to him.

After a short noise, a hoarse voice came from the headset.

"Consultant Yu, the satellite image of the target area has been sent to your mobile phone. We noticed that it has similarities with the vine forest in the forest area you are responsible for, so we chose to give you the investigation task. We hope that you can find the differences in the subsequent investigation, and it would be best to investigate why such a change occurred."

In recent years, environmental changes have often occurred in Jinghu Forest, and the Forestry Defense Bureau is really accustomed to it.

The huge jungle composed of giant trees that are hundreds of meters tall is itself an environmental change.

Most of the time, the Forestry Defense Bureau will choose to wait and see when faced with environmental changes. If there is nothing abnormal, it will only conduct regular investigations to ensure that it will not damage the ecology and cause catastrophic events.

For example, Yu Ke is responsible for the vine forest and mushroom community in the forest area. Not only does it have no impact on the environment, it can also produce some good spiritual fruits and special ingredients, which is a positive compilation.

However, the scale of this change is so large that the Forestry Defense Bureau has to pay attention to it and even ask Yu Ke to investigate.

In fact, after seeing the satellite images, Yu Ke also became interested in the environment of that area.

Nearly two square kilometers of forest were covered by vines. It was normal for vines to grow in the forest. The vine forest that Yu Ke often went to before was just smaller in area.

What really aroused the vigilance of the Forestry Bureau was that some special existence appeared in this expanded version of the vine forest!

Checking the route map on the watch, in order to better observe the abnormal area, Yu Ke did not plan to go in directly, but found a cliff with an altitude of more than 500 meters nearby to climb up and overlook.

Seeing the mountain ahead, Yu Ke clamped his legs lightly around the belly of the frightened deer to speed up. This was the benefit of having a mount. For a hillside with a gentle slope like this, he didn't need to spend time and energy to climb it. The frightened deer could jump all the way up.

Soon, Yu Ke rode the frightened deer to the top of the cliff.

The trees here were sparse, with more piles of stones and low shrubs.

After jumping off the deer's back, Yu Ke looked up at the increasingly gloomy sky, frowned, and then quickened his pace to the edge of the cliff.

"We have arrived near the target location. You can see the specific situation here by yourself."

Yu Ke stood still at the edge of the cliff and looked at the abnormal area marked by the Forest Protection Bureau.

When he saw the situation over there clearly, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Climbing up to overlook was the right choice.

Just a few hundred meters in front of the cliff, the dense jungle was entangled with dark green vines.

Yu Ke, standing on a high place, could clearly see that just above the canopy of the jungle, there were hundreds of giant vines that were more than ten meters higher than the canopy. If the giant trees were included, the height of these vines growing from the ground was close to two hundred meters!

Unlike the ordinary vines that need to rely on giant trees to exist, these in front of him have obviously transformed into another kind of plant.

They just look like vines, but their inner nature has changed.

They are above the jungle!

The tops of those giant vines that are taller than the canopy are even more covered with bright red flower buds, with a diameter of more than five meters and a height of nearly ten meters. The overall shape is spindle-shaped, extremely large in size, and surrounded by a large number of "black lines".

After careful observation through the telescope, Yu Ke discovered that these "black lines" were actually thick meridians, just like human blood, extending from the calyx to the depths of the jungle, and there seemed to be something flowing inside.

With the telescope pointed downward, Yu Ke observed the jungle along these meridians and noticed that the jungle floor was full of crisscrossing vines. They shuttled back and forth in the soil layer of the forest, like a large number of dark green long worms, entangled in every open space in the forest.

The giant trees in the jungle that should have existed as the main body were like parasites of the vines. Even most of the tree roots were entangled with the vines and merged into one to some extent.

It looked like a green fortress!
