Bionic Era

Chapter 241: flowering

"I have always felt that I am a sufficiently cautious person. Few people in this line can live to my age." This person slowly said.

His name is Wang Xiang, and he is indeed older, and he looks close to fifty years old.

Most of the 50-year-old office workers are already wearing fat, clocking in to and from get off work every day, spending the last part of their lives in the boring and boring life.

But he is a fifty-year-old mercenary.

His muscles are still strong, he pays attention to his work and rest every day, his eyes are sharp, and his mental state far exceeds that of many young people in their twenties and thirties.

"But I was careless this time."

He looked down at the vines on his body.

Those vines hadn't moved much, but they had already reached his chest.

There seemed to be countless sharp blades on the edge of the vine, which cut through his clothes, revealing the innermost bulletproof vest.

"These vines are very smart. They will release a certain kind of anesthetic, which will make you undetectable, and even make you feel tired, and then they will entangle little by little."

At first, Wang Xiang felt that his fatigue was due to his old age, coupled with the continuous escape for his life.

When he found those vines on his body, it was too late.

"If I'm not mistaken, the wounds cut by these vines will not heal easily and will bleed all the time, just like having been bitten by a leech."

Wang Xiang knew that he was going to die today, so it would be nice to have a chat with someone before he died.

"If you walk all the way in, you should be able to detect the weirdness of these plants." Lu Wen said.

"But who would have thought that there would actually be plants capable of killing people." Wang Xiang shook his head. He came in on a motorcycle and didn't pay much attention to it along the way.

After all, for him at the time, the danger came from behind.

Xia Chuluo's team is in hot pursuit.

"Since there is this city on your escape route, you should investigate well in advance."

"Time is too late. The news of Luo Ruyan's death is too sudden. That man is quite cunning and he is unscrupulous. I really didn't expect him to die before me."

As he spoke, those plant vines further entangled his body.

It was like a series of poisonous snakes spitting out letters, walking around his body, the sharp vine surface cut the skin.

The skin of his arm was cut into strips.

The blood dripped slowly along the wounds, flowing on the vines.

These vines slowly absorb blood.

"It looks scary, but I don't feel the pain. The anesthetic used by this plant is quite good."

Wang Xiang's psychological quality is quite strong.

He watched his arms and legs being cut a little bit, his expression was indifferent, as if this body did not belong to him.

For an ordinary person with insufficient psychological quality, he may have begun to yell at this time.

"You are very lucky. There are actually some floating plant seeds in the sky. If I guess right, those plantings will parasitize the flesh and blood life. If you are a flesh and blood body, you will not be spared even if you don't touch those vines. "

He calmly watched Lu Wen.

"Those plants will take root on your skin, and the root system will slowly invade your flesh and blood, penetrate into your organs, spread to your limbs, and even your brain, and finally control your actions, and your body surface will be gorgeous. Blood red flowers."

"Vegetative?"

Lu Wen smiled.

After chasing in the afternoon, a certain amount of time was wasted on the way into the city.

It is dusk now.

The dusk in no man's land looks beautiful, with a feeling of vicissitudes.

"Dang——Dang——"

The bell tower not far away rang out from the crowd.

It's six o'clock in the evening.

It's summer, and six o'clock is still very bright.

But the city began to change.

The lake water fluctuates to a certain extent, it seems that there is a huge monster moving under the lake surface, disturbing all the creatures nearby.

"Those animals are here."

Lu Wen looked into the distance.

No animal appeared in his vision, but he heard it.

Densely packed.

Those animals that hid under the ground and ruins during the day, and lived in the gaps between cement bricks, now all left their hiding places and ran towards the lake in the center.

Before long, those animals appeared in the field of vision.

Most of them are scaly creatures, which are not recorded in Azure's database, and only some that seem to be very similar in appearance can be found.

They seem to have heard some kind of call.

They all ran to the edge of the lake and began to drink precious water resources.

Sometimes huge vines rise from the bottom of the water, dragging some animals into the lake.

The animals struggled for a while, and there was no movement, and a little scarlet appeared on the water.

"Interestingly, plants in this city dominate water resources, and therefore dominate animals." Wang Xiang looked at the lake in the center faintly.

His face was already very pale, which was the cause of excessive blood loss.

"Trouble give me a happy one, I don't want to be sucked up alive, and then thrown into the bottom of the lake to become one of the countless bones." Wang Xiang asked earnestly.

"can."

Lu Wen approached slowly.

While paying attention to the surrounding vines, he took the tactical knife from his waist.

The vines didn't seem to notice his arrival.

Probably because he is not a life of flesh and blood.

Lu Wen stabbed Wang Xiang's neck with a single knife, and opened the trachea, esophagus, blood vessels and other tissues.

The blood gushed out like a fountain, spraying on Wang Xiang's body.

"Your heart is partially blocked by the body armor. There is a ceramic plate inside. It is more convenient to choose your neck." Lu Wen said.

Wang Xiang naturally couldn't answer.

Half of his neck was cut open.

So he could only look at Lu Wen, and the luster in his eyes slowly disappeared.

Perhaps the last look is grateful.

The vines entwining him noticed that the vital signs of the prey were disappearing rapidly, and a large amount of blood was also sprayed on the surface of the vines, exceeding the speed that these plants can absorb.

So these plants are angry.

Several vines with thick arms winded towards Lu Wen, like deadly poisonous snakes.

But the speed of these vines is still too slow.

Lu Wen severed a few stubbornly.

"This thing is quite tough, no wonder Wang Xiang couldn't get out of it."

He used a force exceeding the average value of an adult to reluctantly chop off these vines.

The blood flowing from the fracture is also bright red.

"Would you like to bring some back for inspection?"

Lu Wen had this strange idea in his mind, and finally shook his head.

Taking it back in this way is likely to cause considerable harm to human society.

Of course, it is also possible that this thing can only grow in a specific environment, and if it leaves this environment, it will wither and die.

"Grumbling..."

The surface of the lake suddenly started to bubble up.

The animals drinking by the lake became restless, sometimes looking at the lake and sometimes at the road behind them.

In the end, these animals scattered and fled one after another.

The lake is getting more and more turbulent.

Lu Wen also felt something was wrong, so he rode on the motorcycle left by Wang Xiang.

"Om--!"

The mountain motorcycle made a roar and then sprang out like an arrow.

Lu Wen understands why so many people like to ride motorcycles.

It's really exciting.

The wheels ran over the ruins, jumped between the collapsed floors, and the squally wind was blowing on the face, and the whole person felt like they were about to fly.

Today's sunset is reddish, which stretches his leaving figure very long.

...

at the same time.

Outside the city.

Everyone also saw the weird plants through the drone video.

"Unexpectedly, Wang Xiang can be regarded as a quite famous mercenary. The big figures who died in his hands also had hands, and they were cautious...Finally, they were killed by a few canes." The team members said with emotion. .

Most of these team members are mercenaries, so they naturally know that Wang Xiang is good.

"To be precise, he was killed by Lu Wen." Fatty Jiang added.

"What are those vines? Why do they eat animals? Are you relatives of pitcher plants? Have you seen them before?"

"I haven't seen it. This is a contaminated area. Who would run to this place for a long time?"

As everyone talked, Lu Wen had already drove half of the city road.

This city is not too big after all.

Fatty Jiang began to gather the drones flying over the city.

"Fuck, what the **** is this?"

He looked at the screen, and the voice attracted everyone.

Even Xia Chuluo moved his gaze to the screen.

I saw a blood-red tumor slowly rising in the center of the lake, like flesh and blood, but the lines on the outside were only possessed by plants. It was huge, and it was as big as two or three cars combined.

"Plop...Plop..."

The blood-red tumor was beating slowly.

Like the heart of an animal.

There is no need for the drone to send back the sound. They can feel the pulse of that city even so far away.

"Is this stuff refined? Have you seen A Chinese Ghost Story? The grandmother inside is a tree spirit..." Lu Yang said.

"Pop!" Fatty Jiang slapped Lu Yang's forehead, "You also learn computers anyway, don't you know that science is supreme? Where are so many spirits in this world~lightnovelpub.net~ That's just a radiation mutation. It’s just a dead plant."

At the same time, Lu Wen has driven out of the city.

His system is madly prompting him.

[Attack intention detected]

【Detection...】

【……】

Swiping the screen in his head.

Driven by that strong sense of crisis, he didn't even change the car, and rode this motorcycle out of the city.

As for the off-road vehicle he drove in, he could only stay in it temporarily.

"Wait, Lu Wen, don't come here, I will test and monitor you." Fatty Jiang hurriedly shouted.

"come on."

Lu Wen stopped more than 20 meters away from everyone.

Fatty Jiang tied his detection equipment to the drone, and controlled the drone to fly towards Lu Wen.

The results came out very quickly.

"How is it?" Lu Wen asked.

"There is some radiation, but the problem is not big, you can come over." Fatty Jiang replied.

Everyone on the team returned to the car.

Fortunately, there are spare places in the car, and Lu Wen doesn't have to ride a motorcycle to get to the city.

Just as the whole team was about to set off, Fatty Jiang suddenly yelled again.

"Wait!"

"what happened again?"

"Quickly come down and check it, fucking, I'm caught."

After hearing this, everyone was a little confused, and got out of the car one after another.

I saw Fatty Jiang's expression weird.

He stared at his fat arm.

A blood-red flower bloomed on that arm.

The petals are translucent, and you can see the tiny tubes inside. Some blood is circulating in the tubes, and the rhizomes have penetrated the surface of the skin.

...

Good night, all book friends!
