Spirit of the Mountain

Chapter 221: The Living Walled City Immortal Grass, this name may exist in myths and stories. Similarly, this plant also exists in the doomsday survival game, which mostly draws on Huaxia culture and has a high degree of openness. It is a strange plant that regenerates very quickly and cannot be cut down or exterminated. In reality, Liu Ming and others also encountered similar situations in the game. After leveling the ground and cleaning up the garbage, when they started to clean up the vegetation near the cement floor, a headache arose for them. plant. Crazy plants. Crazy regenerating plants. As long as it is a plant, whether it is a tree or a weed, after Liu Ming and the others cut it down and eradicate it, it will quickly return to its original state in less than half a day, and most of it will grow even more lushly than before. Fortunately, these plants will not erode the concrete floor, otherwise Liu Ming and the others would be on tenterhooks, let alone building a base, even resting. Because after several rounds of cutting, the plants will grow like monsters like crazy. Initially their cycles were about eight hours. After the second felling, the time it took for the trees to grow back became four hours. Then a few people who refused to admit defeat continued to cut, and the time became less than two hours. In the fourth round, they didn't dare to continue cutting and dug instead. The situation improved after the roots were dug up. It turns out that these monster-like plants are also afraid of cutting off their roots. After Tan mastered this weakness of the plant, the testing continued. Experimental targets selected. The first round, eight hours. The second round, about four hours. Round three, less than two hours. The fourth round, more than fifty minutes. The fifth round, more than 40 minutes. The sixth round, nearly forty minutes. Round seven, forty-eight, a few seconds more than fifteen minutes. Round 49, a few seconds over fifteen minutes. Round fifty, a few seconds over fifteen minutes. Finally, these stubborn young men finally figured out the final growth cycle of these "monster" plants, which is fifteen minutes. Then the mystery of the plants that mastered the data was broken. Didn't they just grow a little faster? We have a lot of strength, and the heat brought by daily practice can be used to vent on these plants. While cutting the roots and opening roads, we can also orient ourselves. Cultivate and harvest many construction and living materials. As the days passed, the camp on the concrete ground in the dense forest was expanding, improving, and strengthening day by day. From the first few simple tents to the wooden walled city covered with the entire cement floor, from the bare flat to the tall wooden walls and fences with spikes, from the chaotic flowers and trees to the orderly defense and Living plants, everything takes shape slowly and quietly. Watching the "fortress" changing day by day, the base in the minds of Liu Ming and the five of them finally took on a rough and crazy appearance. Even though it is still far from the majestic brick and stone fortress in the game in my mind, after all, this is a home built in reality. The five of them shed sweat, buried each piece one by one, and then tied them together to build a home. Taking advantage of the rapid growth of plants, Liu Ming led four other people to plant this wooden fortress. After the inserted stakes are poured with spring water, they will take root and sprout again in just one night. After discovering this situation, the five people specially cut down the hardest and most resilient trees and vines, and built the outermost defense of the fortress on three levels inside and outside the edge of the cement floor. Among the multi-layered protective walls, the innermost layer is made of the thickest and hardest "iron wood". The middle layer is a "rubber tree" of uniform thickness. This tree is extremely resilient. If Liu Ming and the others hadn't brought alloy saw blades and discovered that this kind of tree is resistant to heat and becomes brittle when exposed to fire, it would have been impossible for them to build a middle-layer fence made of this kind of tree stumps. possible. And outside this layer of "rubber tree" wall with excellent toughness, there is also a thick layer of vines that are densely woven with both strength and softness. There is also a flowing stream outside the three-story wall. This knee-high stream is not a "moat". It is the water of life that Liu Ming and the five of them opened to water the walls and activate the plant walls. The source of the creek is the well in the corner of the cement floor. Plants watered by well water will have greater vitality and growth rate. After Liu Ming and the others built a wooden fence, the water from the well flowed through the bottom of the "wall". This special fence came to life at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon turned into a tightly intertwined network. Together, lush, living defensive walls. Liu Ming and the others have tested that as long as the stream keeps flowing, with their current methods, there is no way to break through the city wall's defense in a short time. Being able to build a "fortress" that can accommodate thousands of people in just a few days, the rapid progress of Liu Ming's five cultivation techniques is also an important factor. But even such huge progress cannot break through the outer wall of the city wall. This shows how tenacious vitality and defense power these carefully selected plants have after being combined together. The "base" was built, and the five people's skills also made rapid progress. But Liu Ming and the others still felt empty in their hearts, without much joy and sense of accomplishment. Because they were thinking about the large army, worried about the captain and the others, and were afraid that something might happen to them in this strange mist and forest. In fact, their concerns are not wrong. At this moment, in a long and narrow valley about a few kilometers away from the base Liu Ming and the others established, the large troops Liu Ming and the others were concerned about were engaged in a fierce battle. The tight cylinder formation defends the sky above. The enemy is in the air. Dozens of people in the entire team formed three circular formations, back-to-back and dependent on each other. Two of them, with a larger number of people, were gathered by ordinary team members. Outside these two "big formations" there is a small triangular formation composed of three people that is moving flexibly outside them. This three-person small formation is the "Three Talents Formation" composed of Zhang Cheng and his two masters, the two brothers Heng Ha. They use their powerful abilities that are far beyond ordinary people to continuously kill and injure ferocious enemies, and provide timely support when their teammates are in danger. Countless Dao Kuai, who could only see their shadows, were attacking from the air non-stop. The team of warriors who had formed a formation could only maintain their formation undisturbed under these attacks. With the support of Zhang Cheng and his two masters, everyone used the latest standard weapons, and after using the discharge function, they only temporarily held the line of defense and failed to achieve much results.
