Chapter 378 Wasteland World 39
Although the strange beasts they encountered along the way did not cause them any damage, they were still quite troublesome.
Especially when it was almost noon, they encountered mutated plants. After observing them, Lan Hanlu didn't know what expression to make on her face.
There were about sixty mutant corns in the field. The previous rice was a positive mutation, but this corn was a reverse mutation.
They grew tall and big, and their weapons were corn kernels, which emitted bursts of food aroma.
As long as a strange beast enters the cornfield, it will eject the corn kernels on its body and kill the beast like bullets.
As for whether those corn kernels can be eaten, I really don't know.
They had long discovered that Lan Hanlu was not simply able to sense alien plants, she seemed to have observed them closely. They thought it was probably the special nature of her 3s potential talent.
After all, they had never encountered a female mutant above level 2S.
If a few people want to go around, they have to climb over the mountain on one side. The key point is that no one can guarantee that there are no strange plants on the mountain. It’s not that they can’t guarantee it, but they can guarantee that there will definitely be some.
On the other side of the cornfield is a very wide river, which is known to be inhabited by groups of mutant crocodiles.
Even if this thing hadn't mutated, it would have been a disaster, let alone now that it has mutated.
So relatively speaking, this cornfield is better off.
"People are always traveling back and forth between several cities, so how come no one has noticed this cornfield?" Lan Hanlu really didn't understand.
"According to what you said, this kind of corn should be a latent alien plant, which only appears at a certain time for hunting.
Once they have stored enough nutrients, they will hide again.
There's also a type of alien plant that's a pure hunter. These plants often possess other abilities besides their own mutations. They're very difficult to deal with, and some are even impossible to eradicate."
Ye Hang did the latter with a serious look on his face.
Due to radiation, the human living environment has been compressed to the extreme, and offense and defense are easy. After hundreds of years of efforts, humans have only just managed to gain a foothold.
If we really encounter high-level mutant plants or animals, we will have to rely entirely on human life as a foundation to have any chance of competing.
Wherever technological weapons are used, large numbers of mutated animals and plants will soon be born.
Wei Wu and Ye Hang went to test the attack power of these corns, and Lan Hanlu was arranged to stay in the rear and be protected by Lin Ou.
After some testing, I found that the attack power of corn is mainly limited in range, but its attack power is also quite strong within a certain range.
The two recorded a video.
They saw that the corn kernels shot out like bullets, easily penetrating the orcs' skin. The two also saw with their own eyes that a rabbit was parasitized more than 10 minutes after its skin was penetrated.
Within two hours, the rabbit was covered with corn roots, and a seedling emerged from the wound caused by the corn. It was quite disgusting.
The video was sent back to the city's mercenary guild. After the city's mercenary guild tested and analyzed the video, they immediately saw the updated report on the big screen in the lobby.
For these people who are on missions all year round, the sight of rabbits being parasitized is very common. Even if the rabbit finally falls down, the corn will take root on the spot and grow into a strange plant half a person's height.
Everyone sighed, a new species of exotic plants appeared. I used my watch to memorize the location, characteristics, and attack methods of the species.
"Will we get a reward if we clear these corns?" Lan Hanlu was curious.
"This kind of parasite will never be completely eradicated. There's no telling when it will become a full-blown epidemic. But the reward for our report has already been paid."
Lan Hanlu took a look and found that it was indeed the case. There were quite a few credit points and points.
After dealing with a few people and drinking the nutrient solution, they prepared to fight these alien plants.
Wei Wu and Lin Ou will lead the way. Wei Wu has earth-type abilities and Lin Ou has ice-type abilities. Given their ability levels, they should be able to withstand the first wave of attacks.
As long as the two sides are within 30 meters, Ye Hang and Jiang An will have two minutes to quickly attack.
The main thing is that the two people have to endure the time period of entering the 30-meter range, reaching within and staying for two minutes.
Several people transformed into animal forms, with Wei Wu and the other two leading the way, followed by Lan Hanlu, and next to her were Ye Hang and Jiang An.
As soon as they approached the range of 100 meters, they heard a rapid rustling sound, like the sound of wind blowing corn leaves.
But the weather now is not calm, but there is not enough wind in the dense forest to blow the corn leaves.
So the few people knew that Yumi's attack was coming, and Wei Wu directly erected an earth wall. The wall was more than two meters high and about half a meter thick.
As soon as the earth wall was erected, the sound of breaking wind came rapidly, followed by a puffing sound, and chestnut-sized corn kernels were embedded in the earth wall.
Some of the missiles were too high and flew directly over the heads of these people at high speed, hitting the trees behind them, and a popping sound could be heard.
Wei Wu led the way with his special powers, and the others followed, hiding behind the earthen wall. As the distance increased, Wei Wu had to thicken the earthen layer.
But when they were less than 70 meters away, some corn kernels almost broke through the wall. At this time, Lin Ou directly placed his hands on the wall.
I saw that the outside of the earth wall was covered with a layer of ice nearly 20 centimeters thick. The bullet passed through the ice city and then got stuck in the earth wall, which had lost a lot of force.
Without any pause, they walked forward quickly, finally taking over the cornfield. The two of them had to maintain such a high-intensity application of superpowers.
It was also very hard, but we gritted our teeth and persevered, and finally reached the designated location.
Lin Ou shouted. "Begin."
Ye Hang and Jiang An unleashed their special abilities. Jiang An waved his hand casually, and sharp blades flashing with metallic light slashed across the corn plants.
The corn fell one by one. Ye Hang waved his hand, and the corn that had been struck by lightning was charred and caught fire. The two of them had indeed finished off these dozens of corns within two minutes.
Afterwards, they gathered the corn plants together and set them on fire. "Alas, it's a pity there are no crystal cores." Lin Ou carefully checked them twice, feeling a little disappointed.
"It's not easy for alien plants to form crystal nuclei. These corns are not of high grade at first glance, so it's even more impossible." Ye Hang used lightning to ignite all the corns.
Don’t think it’s easy for the enemy to deal with these mutated corns. That’s because the abilities of several of them are at a high level and they cooperate well with each other.
If we change to another team of 4, who knows what will happen.
After a few people tidied themselves up a bit, they set off quickly. They all knew that the road would become more difficult as they went further, especially when they encountered bad weather.
You may waste more time on the road, so try to travel as far as possible now.
