The Holy Light Redemption of the End Times

Outside the settlements, the former farmlands were submerged under the cover of countless exotic plants, and there were thick and intertwined root systems everywhere, as if people were in a tropical rainforest.

In this strange forest, unusual tranquility and ominousness spread in the hearts of everyone who entered here.

Of course, this does not include Benedis.

Although the new body is very weak, Archbishop Benedis, who is proficient in pharmacy, still upgraded himself from a sick and weak man with three steps and three pants to an ordinary otaku version within ten days. Of course, this is already the limit.

After all, when Dean Xu was making an artificial human, his purpose was to use it as a spare organ. The rejection of organ transplantation can easily cause death. It is like a person from a strong country who goes to a weak country. Problem, but if a person from a weak country goes to a strong country, then he will work obediently and will not do anything wrong. Therefore, the prosthetic body basically has no immunity, and this genetic defect cannot be changed by medicine.

But it doesn't matter, Chu Jing is quite talented as a bodyguard, but she is also close to complete in other aspects, cooking, tidying, massage, raising a family... the arrangements are reasonable, well-organized, and she can fight well.

"The road here used to be very wide." Benedis bent down, and picked out a piece of cement debris with obvious artificial traces from the saprophytic plants that looked like mushrooms at the root of the tree, which was several meters thick.

"This is a part of the Beijing-Shenyang Expressway, the first national highway in mainland China. The country spent tens of billions of investment back then." Chu Jing stuck to the back of the big tree, vigilantly watching the movement around here.

The tree has white-glowing branches covered with dandelion-like luminous flocs. The cold wind blows gently, and the flocs fall from the branches and dance in the air.

"It's a pity." Benedis twirled a strand of catkins from the air, "Chu Jing, do you know the biggest difference between these mutated plants and the previous ones?"

Chu Jing shook her head: "I don't understand these things, but I think it's better to leave. Even if you are a b-level mutant, you won't be able to get out if you stay in the forest for too long. I don't have a weapon right now."

"Although I have always been merciless to the Druids who are close to nature, because of them, I still know something about the forest." Benedis took out a little tissue from the trunk and put it in a sampling bag, "These plants The biggest difference is the evolution from self-support to other support.”

"Autotrophy means photosynthesis of plants, and heterotrophy means animals eat plants, but in the final analysis, they all rely on the sun." Chu Jing looked up at the sky, but there was only darkness.

Almost seven years later, he remembered the sun rising, but he didn't know if he could see the day when the sun rose again in his lifetime.

"That's not the point." Benedis pulled a thin stem from the bark. This kind of thin vine is yellow-green, with leaves like scales. It sticks tightly to the trunk. The trunk wrapped around the cane is very tight. There was already a constriction on the entangled branch, and the constriction had a creeper-like sucker. He had seen this thing in the plant illustrated book back then, "How long have you been sticking to this one?"

"Ten minutes." This is the time for Benedis to collect specimens under the tree.

"Take off your clothes."

Chu Jing was a little puzzled, but he moved quickly. He was wearing a thick military padded jacket with a autumn coat inside.

"Take off your clothes, and your pants."

"..." Chu Jing was a little hesitant, not because he was afraid of being seen, but because it was so cold that he couldn't last long.

"Hurry up." Benedis emphasized his tone.

Chu Jing did so.

Then, cold sweat drenched the whole body.

The same plant as in Benedis's hand was tightly attached to his body, and the tiny suckers pierced into his skin. The leaves that were originally green scales had turned red and white, filled with fat and blood, like eating one by one. The little leech that rose.

Benedis pulled the vines to the ground one by one, and after checking that there was nothing extra, he squeezed a swollen leaf vigorously, the blood plasma and fat "squeaked" and the plant vines seemed to feel pain, rolling over It is about to get into the bottom.

Benedis took several plants several meters long, but they did not put them in a special sampling box, but put them in a sealed tape.

"What is this?" Chu Jing finally understood how terrifying heterotrophic plants are.

"The scientific name is Cuscuta, and it can be used as medicine. It is a nourishing and strong astringent." Benedis replied casually.

"Nourishing and strong astringent?" Chu Jing couldn't understand the too professional term.

"Aphrodisiac medicine." Benedis actually didn't understand this term until after Baidu. "The book is very professional."

"What book?" Chu Jing's eyes were full of doubts, and he began to scrutinize the opponent's legs above his abdomen.If Dole is not good in this aspect, will it affect his future married life? Should I ask my mother to arrange someone to come for a consultation...

"Don't think about it. The name of the plant illustration is Compendium of Materia Medica." Benedis frowned, "I collected this because it is so fat and non-toxic, so I can eat it when I go back."

"This is my meat..." Chu Jing's face turned pale.

"It doesn't matter, if you buy it with someone else, someone will want it." Benedis said indifferently, "And I will try to see if it is possible to breed it. If it is possible, our future economic problems will be completely solved."

"I don't understand." Chu Jing already had a shadow of this kind of thing. When he was just sucked, he didn't know it at all. If it took a while, he might die directly.

"There is an anesthetic on the sucker of this thing. There is no pain at all when it is sucked, and there is no sequelae after smoking it. It is the best material for weight loss. The effect is fast and the effect is good. It can also be sold as food after smoking. If the result can be used as an aphrodisiac Drugs are for sale.” The archbishop who once worked part-time as the chief beautician of Stormwind City knew very well how much those high-ranking ladies cared about their figures, and he had no doubts about the business opportunities.

Chu Jing froze for a moment, then nodded while putting on her clothes: "Medical cosmetology is a profitable industry, and the approval is very strict."

"Leave this to you, is it okay?" The archbishop didn't want to waste his precious time.

"No problem, but can I go back?" Chu Jing put the sealed bag handed over by the other party into his backpack.

"No hurry, I have one more thing, which will be confirmed soon." Benedis looked at the red fungus on a tree pole, and analyzed the direction of the fungus' flying direction by morphological analysis, and turned to a red, Walking towards the root of a plant that is like a lotus root and exposed to the ground, you can even see some liquid flowing inside the root.

Chu Jing followed him closely, held her breath, and was alert to all movements around her.

Benedis didn't pay attention to the plant, just rummaged around in the gap.

Then it stopped in a gap between the roots of a tree with a red clump.

He took out a small test tube, carefully uncorked it, and poured it over the red clumps.

Then count the time silently.

About 10 minutes passed.

The ground trembled slightly. Benedis calculated the range of the vibration, and pulled Chu Jing back a hundred meters away. The faintly glowing plants in the forest provided them with a space to observe.

Another half hour passed.The vibration became violent, and the underground roots began to break, as if something was struggling under the ground.

Finally, there was a loud noise of "Peng!", the soil flew, and a huge skull with sharp teeth struggled to crawl out from the ground. Climb out step by step from the bottom.

It was the skeleton of a dinosaur.

He is about 13 meters long, about five meters high at the shoulder, and his huge three-meter-long skull can easily swallow an adult.His upper limbs are short, with two fingers; his huge hind legs are big and powerful, and the ground shakes with every step he takes.And the thin, hard, pointed tail can easily break a small tree.

And most importantly, there was a faint blue flame in his eyes.

It left slowly and disappeared into the jungle.

Benedis looked very bad.

"You invented it?" Chu Jing would not be surprised by such a trivial matter long ago.

"No, it's just a substance purified from the red fungus. They grow very fast in places with bones." Benedis looked at the direction where the dinosaurs disappeared in the distance.

"Is this kind of thing formed naturally?" Chu Jing already understood the consequences of this kind of thing.

Benedis was silent for a moment: "Absolutely not."

"Those with this ability... you mean, the Sara Zerg?"

"No." Benedis said affirmatively, "At that time, I begged my Lord to come with my life, and the divine light of punishment that was sent down by my Lord himself has the property of destroying all living beings. Even if it is far away in another world, it will follow Follow the trajectory of their fate in the void to find everyone, and then smash them easily!"

"Can that be restrained?"

"The red fungus is a very strange fungus. His genes are not complicated, but there is a structure that I can't analyze. They can survive on any dead skeleton, using the skeleton as their basic framework, forming a unified consciousness."

"Like a human brain?"

"It's not the same. The consciousness of the human brain is realized by hundreds of millions of neurons forming the cerebral cortex. Neurons cannot be separated, but this kind of fungus is a single individual. When they are combined, they form neurons that act like neurons. When used, it becomes a high-level thinking, but when it is separated, it is a single low-level creature.”

"Like ants and bees?"

"Yes, if this kind of thing spreads, soon as long as there are bones, no matter how many years they have been dead, no matter what race they are, they will leave the sleeping homeland, push away the wet sand, and welcome the long-lost air, as well as their second life. second life."
