Chapter 3048 Living Plants
After resting for half a day.
The two finally let everyone set off again and move on.
After walking for half an hour, black plants began to appear around me.
There are absolutely no pure black plants in nature.
Because melanin has a strong light-absorbing and heat-absorbing effect.
All plants cannot withstand this kind of heat.
However, this is obviously not a natural plant.
Everyone felt the weak magic power on them.
And in the dark environment here, they just need more light and heat.
These black plants break through the originally flat stone wall, and they look very powerful.
Plants grow tropically.
Unless they are artificially transplanted, they will not breed in a certain area for no reason.
And since they can break through the stone wall, it means that there are nutrients they need here, or the environment here is more suitable for their growth.
This is a large area, and there are black plants along the way.
It was definitely not transplanted, or the seeds fell here accidentally.
There must be nutrients they need.
Xiaohe suddenly waved his hand: "Stop!"
Everyone looked at Xiao He, and Jia Liwen asked, "What's wrong?"
"There's something wrong." Xiao He said.
"What did you find?"
"These plants! These black plants are dangerous." Xiao He said.
"Plants? Are they poisonous?"
Xiaohe shook his head: "They are following us."
"What? How is that possible?"
"I just deliberately dropped a drop of blood on the leaves of the plants, but the drop of blood never moved away from me and kept moving at the same speed as us, so these plants are alive and still following us."
No one doubted Xiao He's words and immediately became wary of the surrounding plants.
"The fire burned them," said Gallivan.
Everyone initially felt that these black plants were dangerous, but they thought it would be fine as long as they did not come into contact with them.
But now it seems that their ideas are still too naive.
Team members with the fire element began to cast fire magic.
In a moment, the black plants on the surrounding walls were ignited.
Everything started out well.
But without warning, the stone wall suddenly cracked, and a dozen black plants burning with flames fell down.
They look like animal or human bodies, with limbs and heads, but most of their bodies are covered in black plants.
They are very small and may not be as big as a rose.
They are also suffering from the flames.
Everyone was a little surprised.
Although they already knew these were no ordinary plants.
But I never expected that these plants were actually alive.
At this moment, other black plants emerged from the stone wall and attacked the crowd.
"Thunder surge!" A team member released an arc of electricity that passed directly through the passage of dozens of meters.
However, except for a few black plants in front of them that were scorched and fell to the ground, the other black plants were almost not fatally injured.
The light and shadow effect of this thunder magic is completely inversely proportional to the actual lethality.
You must know that individuals of these black plants are very fragile.
Even ordinary people can trample a few to death with their fists and feet.
But this seemingly powerful thunder magic is actually only worth killing a few.
"Don't use thunder spells, they are plants! Use fire spells!"
Although plants are not immune to electric attacks, they are different from mammals.
Electric shock in mammals can cause cardiac arrest and death.
And plants have no heart.
Therefore, if you want to use electric current to kill plants, you can only use more powerful electric current to evaporate the water in the plants.
This attack would be pointless if the water in the plant cannot be evaporated.
Moreover, these black plants can actually use dark magic.
Although it can only release the lowest level black arrows and dark demon thorns.
But there are so many of them, and they are so horrendous that it makes people’s heads tingle.
"Fick, use holy magic." Jialiwen shouted.
"My holy magic can only heal...it has no lethality."
"No, they are light-hating plants." Gallivan said.
"Don't question Miss Gallivan's words, hurry up." Kurandresi urged.
Fike reacted immediately. He had always been obedient before.
But this time the request caught him a little off guard.
Fick immediately condensed a ball of light in his palm.
The light ball emits a brilliant light, and instantly the surrounding black plants no longer attack, and all burrow back into the stone wall.
Only the leaves and a few branches are left and cannot be taken back.
And their leaves are all closed like mimosa.
"Sure enough." Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Jia Liwen responded in time, otherwise, these living black plants would be really difficult to deal with.
"How long can you last?" Jialiwen asked.
"If there is no other consumption, this source of light technique can be maintained forever." Fick said: "But I can no longer use other magic."
"It doesn't matter. Leave the fighting to us. You just need to maintain this magic."
Everyone is back on the road.
There are still a lot of black plants clinging to the stone walls along the way.
But wherever they pass, these black plants will shrink.
"Without Holy Light Magic, we would be in trouble." Xiao He said.
"Fortunately, they have the characteristic of being light-averse, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with them."
Kurandresi knocked on the stone wall: "The stone wall is hollow. It looks like it has been built hollow by these living plants."
"What are these? Plants? Animals?"
"They are probably the culprits that caused the deaths of the previous inspection teams. Although they are very weak individually, there are too many of them, and they can also use magic. Especially when people are sleeping, they are impossible to guard against. After all, most of the time, It’s hard for people to be wary of plants.”
They had been walking for about three hours, not that it was very long.
Mainly because some places collapsed and they needed to clear the passage.
In these three hours, they actually walked less than a kilometer.
Moreover, the underground ruins are winding downwards, perhaps less than 200 meters away from where they were three hours ago.
But this underground ruins is indeed very huge.
"To be honest, I'm really curious about what ancient bloodline can survive for hundreds of years." Xiao He said: "Normally, any liquid will dry up after being left for decades, even with a very good sealing device. Already?"
"Let me correct you. The preliminary inference of this ruins is that it is at least three thousand years old." Kurandresi said.
"Are you kidding me? Europeans three thousand years ago were still savages." Gallivan said.
Xiaohe glanced at Jia Liwen: "You are also of European descent."
