Chapter 247 Do not eat raw food randomly (13)

The South China Sea Relics Group is indeed worthy of the name 'South China Sea'. Although the underground caves extend in all directions, as long as you explore down, you will definitely encounter raging underground rivers and even vast saltwater lakes. There are many strange primitive sea creatures swimming in them. , there are fluorescent algae groups, foggy thunderclouds, floating jellyfish and other strange sights, and the atmosphere is myriad.

However, except for the scouts who professionally recorded the relics and the monks of the Spiritual Equipment Church, Feiyan's group had no intention of appreciating the beauty of these scenery. They were only looking for the possible main body of the pre-era civilization relics, and wanted to hunt them down. The Imperial **** who killed their comrades.

However, even though his heart was filled with anger, the captain still keenly observed many things that were wrong when he pursued along the way.

Why are those huge underground lakes, seas and rivers so hot that they are almost boiling, evaporating countless heat? However, some lakes are as cold as ice, and the creatures wandering in them are not very active, and it is not even clear why they are alive?

The most important thing is that the distance between the hot spring and the cold pool is even less than 100 meters. Why are there such big differences between them?

Relying on the keen intuition of the former detective trump card, the captain can be sure that the reason for the difference is inextricably linked to the current situation of the large ruins group.

But soon, he suppressed these thoughts in his heart.

Because after several hours of tracking, they finally caught up with Ian and Ethan.

The icy lake caves located deep underground are damp and cold, which is really difficult for the soldiers from Flameland, especially when they turned on the searchlights and found that the source of the fluorescent light in front of them were all huge maroon mushrooms , A creepy feeling suddenly arises spontaneously.

Kacha, Kacha, among the giant mushrooms, many magical beasts with giant golden mushrooms symbiotically growing on their backs raised their heads. They are very sensitive to light, and the largest monster among them is a scaleless iron snake, which is extremely huge. It is more than 20 meters long, and the parasitic metal mushrooms on the body are not huge, but they are all silvery, like the sharp spines of a giant dragon, obviously a special species.

Or according to the habits of the Terra continent, it is the 'labyrinth species'!

The scaleless iron snake with a black body and silver fins circled its head and looked at the outsiders. Although it was slow to move due to the low temperature, it also felt that the visitors were not kind, so it spit out snake letters and hissed warning sounds.

"This strange mushroom seems to be a parasitic species... Don't get close, use fire!"

The team leader's judgment was not wrong. In the face of this fungal parasite, it is indeed best to use fireplus they have seen the horror of the parasite here with their own eyes, so of course they dare not take it lightly.

But, when the fire-breathing soldiers of Flameland began to use their flame-throwing guns to deal with these giant golden mushrooms and symbiotes, an unexpected situation happened.

When the bluish-white pillar of fire that was enough to melt metal rolled towards the scaleless iron snake headed by it, the silver metal fungus of the giant snake released a large number of dust spores with a bang, blocking the flame tongue from the body surface and at the same time , also instantly spread the heat of the pillar of fire, heating up the surrounding air temperature.

"Hiss"

Feeling the transfer of heat, the **** snake seemed to shake its head comfortably, and then, its lazy golden vertical pupils instantly transformed into the ferocity of a predator, and its actions became several times faster than before in an instant.

Snapped! With a flick of its tail, the giant snake suddenly blew up a cloud of silver spores, and rushed towards Feiyan's team. The huge and smooth body covered with small silver fungus was so hard that just moving would scrape the ground it passed by. Rubbed into large flakes of rock powder.

The giant snake carried the waves on the land, and pounced with a fierce momentum.

However, a guard knight stepped forward with his shield up, and he collided head-on with the big snake with such force that it even knocked the snake's head to the sidebut the tail of the big snake was also wrapped around the knight's leg in an instant On the ground, dragged the knight at an extremely fast speed and sank into the pool beside him.

"Don't worry about him, a labyrinth iron snake can't do anything to a watch knight."

The female monk is not worried, and even looks around the entire cave leisurely.

She didn't quite know what was going on here, but tracking showed that Ian and the others had indeed arrived here, and the captain immediately ordered the attack: "Burn a way!".

At this moment, the soldiers of Feiyan have started a full-scale battle with these giant mushrooms and monsters.

For a time, the cave was full of gunshots, and the bullets swept and bounced in all directions, and several blade-wielding soldiers of the vanguard also formed a formation, stepped forward and slashed, killing and smashing many monsters and giant mushrooms that were still slowly recovering. , causing the air to be filled with a glimmer of light, which is the result of the volatilization of the fluorescent liquid.

And as the small captain knight who is a sublimator, he is holding a long-handled broadsword engraved with inscriptions that increase its strength and sharpness. , Every time the sword is cut, it can cut off the head of a symbiotic beast, even cut off the waist!

The captain also drew his sword after ordering the troops to line up.

"Follow me!" Saying so, he swung his sword forward, and slashed at the fully activated giant crocodile with fierce eyes.

The team leader purposely didn't slash at the extremely hard metal scale armor of Crocodile Dragon, but instead slashed at the giant golden mushroom that looked more like the 'main body'.

After the giant golden mushroom sensed the temperature rise, the maroon skin began to gradually stretch and become smooth, and the concave fluorescent liquid exuded a strange sweet fragrance, which made people who smelled it a little smoky.

when!

The captain slashed at the giant fungus with his sword, but it didn't feel as smooth as a hot knife cutting butter at all. Instead, it was like chopping wood with a blunt knife. smashed dents.

After the giant mushroom was dented, a translucent mushroom liquid flowed out of the broken hard shell. This mushroom liquid did not have any fishy smell, but the sweet fragrance in the air suddenly became much stronger.

As the flamethrowers on both sides burned many giant golden mushrooms and those small monsters, the fragrance in the air was already so strong that it was uncomfortable, and the excessive fragrance stimulation had already begun to make many soldiers with less tight gas masks dizzy .

"Wait, cease fire!"

At this moment, the captain also felt that something was wrong. With their fighting, the use of firearms and flamethrowers, the temperature in the cave rose, and the originally cold and gloomy cave suddenly became brighterall the giant golden mushrooms around them began to emit fluorescence throughout their bodies. And the air was filled with the choking scent of spores and secretions.

Although I don't understand biology and don't know what this scene means, as long as I am a normal person, I will feel the danger: "Retreat! This place is dangerous!"

This is another correct decision, but it is too late.

Ian, who originally wanted to use a supercharged water gun to sneak attack among the mushrooms, also noticed something. He put away his weapon, and then quietly retreated with Isengard and Master Gosse.

And just after the three left.

Boom!

A mound of soil occupied by a large number of giant golden mushrooms shook violently, and the huge shock wave even shook the entire cave.

Several soldiers stood firm and wanted to look up to see what was shaking the ground, but they were all shocked and backed away, and even turned and fled subconsciously.

During the shock, a mound of soil suddenly rose up, bringing up a series of densely packed corpses of wild beasts and monsters buried in the soil, among which there were even human corpses. It was astonishing that they had been symbiotically absorbed by giant golden mushrooms for many years in the past. The corpse of the symbiote.

They are all covered in hyphae, their bodies are stiff and corroded a lot, but now they are all moving, silently rushing towards the soldiers of Feiyan.

At the same time, there was another violent earthquake, and the mound of soil collapsed completely, revealing the true body of the underground giant.

It was an extremely huge fortress giant tortoise, and the ten-meter-long tortoise shell was covered with giant golden mushrooms of all sizes!

This giant tortoise is not a corpse, it is still alive, but it was in a dormant state before and was awakened by the heat of the open fire.

A large number of hyphae emerged from the gaps in its carapace, and wrapped around the surrounding corpses. It was vaguely visible that the eyes of this giant tortoise were actually blind, and a pile of fungus-like mushrooms proliferated in its pupils.

Facing the Feiyan team that was constantly attacking towards it, the giant tortoise let out an angry roar, and the icy water in the pool suddenly stirred up waves, rolling towards the soldier teamif it wasn't for the female monks who shot out, using invisible spiritual power out of thin air After defeating the waves rolling in like seaweed, many soldiers might be swept into the pool by the waves controlled by the giant turtle.

"I, Ian... Is there really no problem with the mushroom liquid we drank before?"

Isengarde, who had followed Ian to an exit, watched the battle between the monsters controlled by the Giant Golden Mushroom and the group of corpses and the Flameland team.

While he was venting his anger and gloating, he suddenly remembered that he and others had also drank these fungal secretions that also had the same parasitic characteristics, and he couldn't help but feel a little terrified: "I'm fine, the blood of Erosion Light Lianlong can digest almost all parasites and toxins , but you and Teacher Gesai..."

He doesn't want to eat the relic creatures indiscriminately, causing his stomach to be covered with those giant golden mushrooms!
