Chapter 126 Straight to the Heart
The combat power of the task force is beyond doubt.
In just ten minutes, all the distorted monsters in the laboratory were slaughtered.
I thought I was about to face the source of this disaster.
Little did they know that what they had solved before were just distorted beasts created by the Nightmare Organization through various prohibited experiments in the past two years. To be precise, they were just defective products of the experiments, used to disrupt the outside world and create turmoil.
The monster that really guarded the leader of the Nightmare Organization only appeared when the cabin was attacked!
The giant vines that spanned the ceiling fell down, and the black tumors on the surface first bulged outward, and then the center broke, revealing five strange figures among them. They were the five people who followed the master of the Ma Altar into the underground laboratory before: dragon, monkey, chicken, dog, and cow.
But now they have already lost their sanity, and their bodies have also undergone different degrees of alienation.
In fact, from the moment they drank the talisman water, this group of so-called "core members" were destined to be victims.
The so-called immortality is nothing but their self-righteous fantasy.
Some people have dark red flesh crowns on their heads, noses arched into beaks, shoulder blades lifted outward to spread wings, legs thinned into long claws, hands remained the same, pinching the magic formula in front of their chests; some people's faces turned into canine beasts, covered with coarse bristles, with crooked faces protruding on both sides of their necks, eyeballs on the left side, and ears on the right side, as if they want to spy on everything around them; there are also people whose bodies are inexplicably elongated, heads turned into twisted dragon heads, limbs turned into dragon claws, and half of their bodies hung upside down to hold sabers
The war in the passage started again, and this time it was completely without the previous refreshing feeling of cutting melons and vegetables.
The zodiac members who were originally extraordinary people had a significant increase in combat power after the deformation, not to mention that the loss of reason made them more crazy in the battle, not caring about their own injuries at all, just wanting to exchange lives with the task force.
Although Yin Tianwei, the leader of the team, was still strong and suppressed the dragon-headed monster one-on-one, it was unlikely that other team members would win quickly against such a deformed monster.
Seeing that the situation was about to stalemate, Yu Ke, who had just acquired a new trait, decisively entered the battlefield.
An Saili and others thought that Yu Ke would help them fight against this group of monsters, but they found that the latter was just like Lao Liu, wandering around the edge of the battlefield, waiting for an opportunity to attack each monster, and leaving a mysterious blood mark on their bodies.
An Saili, who was entangled with the half-human, half-monkey distorted monster, looked at Yu Ke with some surprise. In her impression, Yu Ke's fighting style was not like this, and he should prefer to fight head-on.
The monsters transformed from the core members of the Nightmare Organization may be extremely troublesome obstacles in the eyes of the task force, but in Yu Ke's eyes, they are "power banks" that provide various attributes.
The effect of the Hunting Seal was activated, and Yu Ke only felt that there was infinite power surging in his limbs and bones. The blessing of the five distorted monsters made his physical fitness soar to an unprecedented height, and his strength went to a higher level.
At the same time, the task force members were also surprised to find that the strength of the monsters they faced suddenly decreased, and their defenses became more fragile.
"My ability can weaken them, and the time limit is five minutes. Try to kill these monsters within this time period!"
Yu Ke did not mention his own amplification, but only pointed out the weakening ability of the Seal of Hunting. He immediately took the Leviathan Axe, jumped over the defense line formed by the monsters, and went straight to the cabin inside.
The Seal of Hunting will only take effect when the prey is alive. He wants to use the time when he is strengthened to find the source of the attack.
Yin Tianwei noticed Yu Ke's actions, and without saying much, he quickly adjusted his position to help Yu Ke open the passage, and shouted again,
"Technician, hurry up and help crack the hatch!"
Like this core experimental cabin, it is obvious that it is quite solid without thinking, and it is obviously unrealistic to split it with an axe.
Although the two had never met before, the Forest Defense Bureau had already collected a lot of information about Yu Ke. As the commander of the task force, Yin Tianwei knew that the combat effectiveness of this forest ranger was stronger than it appeared.
He didn't care where Yu Ke's strength came from, as long as he could solve this crisis.
Seizing the opportunity, Yu Ke, who was approaching the door of the cabin, swung his battle axe to split the vines that sealed the door, exposing the door lock. The technician immediately stepped forward to crack the password lock, relying on superb skills to easily break through the defense.
When the door was opened, Yu Ke walked into the cabin. When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he immediately stopped the technician behind him,
"Don't come in, you will be infected, let the other members of the task force be careful!"
It was not clear from the outside before, and when the door was opened, Yu Ke noticed that the entire experimental cabin was filled with bright flowers containing infectious energy, and the air was filled with spores that could corrode life.
The top was even more damaged by the macrophagous vines, and gravel fell from the gap from time to time. The vines that broke through the street before should have extended from here, leaving only the main door to block intruders.
This is undoubtedly another line of defense set by the leader of the Nightmare Organization.
Without countermeasures, not to mention ordinary people, even extraordinary people cannot be exposed to this environment for too long.
Related experiments by the Forestry Bureau have proved that spores can not only enter the human body through the respiratory tract, but also direct skin contact may be affected, which is why Yu Ke stopped the technician earlier.
With a sigh of relief, Yu Ke decisively activated the Forest Spirit Mark, and a layer of light green light enveloped his body.
The temple underground palace allowed the Forest Spirit to regain some of its power and also upgraded the mark. In addition to the built-in storage space, Yu Ke could actively use the energy stored inside, just in time to deal with the current situation.
The leader of the Nightmare Organization probably never thought that the carefully designed Pandora Infection Hell would not pose any threat to Yu Ke.
Stepping on the phosphorescent flower clusters all over the ground.
Yu Ke walked forward quickly, his eyes wandering around, walked to the fence, and immediately noticed the huge "garden" below.
In the nearly 500 square meters of space, countless gorgeous flowers bloomed in it, the scale was even more luxuriant than the deep waters of the Mirror Lake, and in the center of this "garden", dozens or even hundreds of infected and deformed monsters knelt in the same direction, as if they were meeting their king.
A dark red deformed heart with a diameter of about two meters was suspended in the air.
The surface is covered with dark green roots and meridians of the giant vines. It is no longer just the heart of the water monster, but now it has become the core of the giant vines. The vines on the high ground are continuously transmitting energy back.
If you look closely, you can find that the heart is shrinking and expanding with someone's breathing, as if it is nurturing an extraordinary existence.
Think of the "metamorphosis and ascension" revealed by Binghu during the interrogation.
Yu Ke immediately realized that the leader of the Nightmare Organization is very likely hidden inside the heart.
In his eyes, this widespread disaster is probably just the price he must pay for metamorphosis and ascension.
He stepped on the fence on the high platform and jumped up.
The distorted monsters outside the warehouse have a limited time to survive, and he must seize the opportunity.
Landing in the garden, stepping on the flowers and the bodies of the distorted beasts on the ground, Yu Ke temporarily put away the Leviathan Axe, bent the bow and arrows, and shot all the remaining explosive arrows in the quiver at the distorted heart.
However, before the arrow successfully hit, the vine roots on its surface seemed to trigger a stress response, suddenly expanding into a defense net, forcibly blocking the arrow, and the explosion failed to hurt the distorted heart.
Seeing this scene, Yu Ke frowned and replaced his weapons while running. If the long-range attack didn't work, he would get close to fight and split the defense.
But as he got closer and closer to the distorted heart, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
Petals fell all over the sky, chanting, and the sound of the conch shell.
The restless mood was inexplicably peaceful, and the fighting mood seemed to be wiped out.
Even those distorted monsters that looked extremely terrifying before turned into slender boys and girls, holding their heads high and singing loudly around a lotus platform. The spiritual impact made Yu Ke feel dazed and his steps stagnated.
The spiritual awakening trait was passively activated, and Yu Ke shook his head, trying to drive these illusions out of his mind.
At the critical moment, the forest spirit that Yu Ke had been trying to communicate with since he discovered the giant vines finally responded. Cool energy flowed into his mind, helping Yu Ke to clear the illusions that interfered with his mind.
Just a few seconds later, when Yu Ke opened his eyes again, two distorted beasts covered with flowers approached him.
He swung his axe, and the amplified violent force easily cut the distorted beasts in half. Yu Ke did not stop, even if the remaining dozens of meters in front of him were occupied by various distorted beasts, he was still not ready to retreat half a step.
At this time, two minutes had passed since he left the hunting mark on the monsters outside. Even if some monsters had been killed, the attributes of the hunted monsters were still increasing.
Relying on this exaggerated blessing, Yu Ke in the charging state was like an axe storm sweeping across the garden.
Any distorted beast that approached him was either chopped to pieces or destroyed by wind and frost, and could not stop him at all.
"The breath is in front. He is using my power to control the macrophagous vines. Take back the energy in the mark. I will try my best to help you."
The voice of the forest spirit rang in Yu Ke's ears. Although it was in the underground palace deep in the Mirror Lake Forest, the mark was like part of its will left on Yu Ke, and it could sense the surroundings through the latter.
Obviously, it was impossible for the leader of the Nightmare Organization to mobilize the macrophagous vines as a human.
Finally confirming that the other party was the target that the forest spirit wanted him to find, Yu Ke could not help but speed up his pace. When he rushed to a few meters away from the heart, he jumped up directly and hit the distorted heart with a direct force!
Facing Yu Ke's fierce attack, the distorted heart wanted to repeat the previous method of intercepting arrows and mobilize the roots of the macrophagous vines again.
It's a pity that this time it was facing the forest spirit. When it comes to controlling plants, it is not qualified!
At the moment of contact, the expanding roots of the vines not only failed to intercept Yu Ke, but suddenly spread out, exposing the fragile heart underneath directly to Yu Ke!
