alien island

"What the hell is this?" The three of them were squeezed crookedly into a round translucent sphere.The place that can be touched by the palm seems to be covered with a layer of greasy oily substance, which is very slippery to the touch, and it is impossible to hold their bodies firmly.

Looking out through the translucent sphere, one can find that there are many black spikes growing outside the surface of the sphere.Zhao Xiangguo tried his best to look up at the top of the sphere that trapped the three of them, only to realize that they were swallowed by a sphere plant and pulled upward into the dense foliage above the jungle.

Looking closely at the top of the ball that trapped them, you can see that at its interface is a wrist-thin silver fluffy branch, which is exactly the same color as the plant they just drank water from.These plants do not seem to grow leaves, but are composed of twisted and downy branches of various sizes and thicknesses.

Wrapped in a ball and pulled into the dense leaves of the canopy in the forest, they realized that it seemed that they had been pulled into another area where strange plants grew.Around them, apart from the color of the leaves of the nearby trees, everything else is translucent round spheres of different sizes with black spikes.And squeezed a little above, there are silver branches of various thicknesses and sizes hanging from the sphere. They are twisted around, twisted and entwined, densely packed, and the growth momentum is extremely vigorous.

"I can't break it. What are these? So strong?" Trying to knock and tear the wall membrane of the spherical plant that wrapped the three of them, Liu Rong realized that the spherical plant didn't look special, and he could try to tear it apart with his hands. When it was torn, the wall membrane was extremely strong and flexible, and the smooth and sticky juice secreted from it also brought them a lot of resistance.If you just rely on the strength of your hands and feet, you can't break it open at all.

Originally, in their hands, there were simple weapons made of sharpened stones and branches tied together, which were used as self-defense weapons for survival on the island, but when they just drank water, in order to catch the dripping water When the water came, they put the branch weapons on the ground, and put their hands together to drink the water, so now they want to use something harder to break the sphere plant, but there is no way.

"This is a trap... Those water drops just now are the bait for these plants." Looking at the surrounding environment, Zhao Xiangguo has gradually begun to understand.

Among the spherical plants of different sizes hanging around them, some of them were filled with a cloudy black liquid, filling the translucent spheres; The strange creature completely submerged in the transparent liquid, its body was completely swollen by the liquid, and the swollen flesh was crowded into the inner wall of the spherical fruit; there were also some spherical plants, those soaked The body parts of the swollen, deformed and distorted animal corpses are gradually beginning to dissolve, turning into a black liquid, which melts into the spherical plants, and becomes the predecessor of the spherical fruits filled with black liquid.

Looking at the various changes of these spherical fruits, Zhao Xiangguo can probably deduce that these huge and terrifying translucent spherical plants that can devour people rely on the bait that can drip sweet water droplets when they hang down to lure other creatures to come over. approach them.

When the creatures are close to touching, their branch response has been triggered, but these plants will not take action immediately, and wait until the time is right and the prey relaxes their vigilance, and then they suddenly attack, causing the prey to fall into the ground. In their trap, they were captured and trapped by the hollow sphere plants on the tree that had been waiting for a long time.

Zhao Xiangguo thought, if he guessed correctly, these spherical plants that trapped them were like some carnivorous plants he had heard about, but those plants could only prey on small insects, and now he encountered this plant , it can devour people...

If they don't escape from the sphere plant as soon as possible, it is estimated that the sphere will secrete liquid soon, drowning them inside.Then they will become like the swollen corpses in the spherical plants next to them, soaked and dissolved, and transformed into the black fleshy nutrients that these plants need to absorb.After the nutrient liquid is gradually absorbed by the spherical plants, these plants will catch new prey and put them in the cage again, and the three of them have become the latest prey of these terrifying giant carnivorous plants...

The crazy and silly man was pressed to the bottom of the translucent spherical fruit by the bodies of Zhao Xiangguo and Liu Rong. Grab it carefully, making his whole body more sticky, all the greasy liquid secreted from the fruit sphere, sticking to his body.

And the two people squeezed next to the crazy man didn't feel very good at this time. The three adults were forced to squeeze into a small and sealed fruit, which was already uncomfortable, and they couldn't stand up even if they tried to stand up. Standing still, it was useless to beat and pull the surrounding spherical plant wall membrane with your hands.The creamy liquid, coupled with the firm and elastic translucent fruit skin, is completely impossible to break with bare hands.The more they couldn't get out, the more anxious they were. From the silver branch connected to the top, a transparent liquid was slowly flowing into it. They didn't know when the liquid would submerge them. If they didn't think about it quickly, There is no way to escape, and after the liquid is flooded, they must die.

While staring at the accumulating liquid flowing into the fruit, they seized the time to try various methods.Liu Rong struggled vigorously inside the sphere fruit which was originally insufficient in oxygen, sweating profusely, and his head began to feel a little dizzy due to the lack of oxygen. He kicked his feet hard on the wall membrane of the fruit, but was bounced back , the sphere plants that wrapped them, only slightly shook from side to side a few times, and were not affected more.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what are we going to do now?" , was about to submerge them all, and he was terrified to the extreme, not knowing what to do in order to escape.The current predicament almost drove him crazy. All kinds of pressure and exhaustion of physical strength in the past few days seemed to attack him at this moment. Liu Rong's whole spirit became extremely impatient and on the verge of collapse.

"I can only try this..." The speed of the liquid flowing in became faster and faster, and now it has risen to the part above Zhao Xiangguo's knee.The crazy man who had fallen down and was trampled by them managed to hold the two of them up and stood up, but he was not directly drowned at the bottom. In the pocket of their clothes, they took out an air shotgun from the doctor's assistant Lu Boming, which was their only hope now.

Knowing that if the gun is fired, there is only one chance. If they are not shot correctly, they will really drown among the plants and become their nourishment.Zhao Xiangguo commanded the mad man and Liu Rong to help him stabilize his shaking body, and lifted him up, closer to the plant branch hanging them. After making sure to aim at it, Zhao Xiangguo fired a shot.

The branches of the plant were immediately pierced through a hole from the middle, but there were still some fibers that continued to connect to the spherical plant that trapped them. Zhao Xiangguo immediately asked everyone to work hard together, bouncing up and down violently in the spherical plant, giving Plants apply downward pressure.

After dancing vigorously for several minutes, the remaining connected fibers finally couldn't bear the weight of the three of them, and broke with a "snap".

The three of them fell down together with the sphere plant that enveloped them.I thought it would be fine if it fell on the ground, but when the spherical plant fell to the ground, the gas filled inside and the flexibility and elasticity of the plant skin itself did not make it flat on the spot, but bounced and rolled, carrying the inside The three people who hadn't come out quickly started rolling and bouncing to one side.

"What, what's going on here? Ah———"

There is nothing in the spherical plant that can be attached to, and the three people who were squeezed inside and knocked dizzy rolled to the side with the spherical plant. After the spherical plant collided and jumped back and forth for a long time, the people staying inside The person was about to vomit, but the sphere fruit finally slowed down.

The three of them wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but when they lifted their dizzy heads to look outside the sphere plant, they found that the three of them were hovering on the edge of a steep cliff. The plant tilted suddenly, and rolled all the way down the steep cliff. The three of them closed their eyes tightly, powerless and helpless, followed the spherical plant, and continued to roll down together.

When the three of them recovered from the dizziness of turning over again, they found that the sphere plant they were staying in was stuck in the gap between two rocks between the dense brown grass under the cliff.They searched for the holes in the plants that had been pierced by the gunshots, and tore apart the plant spheres that had holes and lost their supply and finally began to dry up. The inside of the sphere rolled and crawled out, and leaned against the scorched rock beside it, panting non-stop.

Before they could recover from the shock just now, there was a rustling sound from the side of the brown grass taller than a person.Zhao Xiangguo immediately straightened his back, fixed his eyes on the place where the movement came from, and scanned the surrounding environment with his peripheral vision, thinking about which direction he should escape from if he waited for danger to reappear, it would be more convenient for the other two to escape. The man acted as a dead ghost to help him avoid danger, his mind was spinning, and the tip of a short spear-like weapon first poked out from the grass.

Then, a braid was tied on each side of the head, a large heart-shaped leaf was placed on top of the head to shade the sun, and a girl with delicate features and a youthful appearance was holding a short spear and a lot of edible plants in her hand. Appeared in front of the three people who were still in shock.

"Huh? Uncle policeman... why are you guys?!"

"Xiao Ke?!"

Unexpectedly, the survivors who were traveling in different directions on the island would meet again at this time and place...
