Because there is no artificial development on C85, the climate is very cold.

Before Chi Yao got off the plane, he heard Xiao Hei's prompt.

"The temperature outside the cabin is minus 25 degrees, it is recommended to wear a large cotton jacket."

Chi Yao looked at his thin shirt: "..."

He is the boss of the star thief group, wearing a big padded jacket and going out to fight?lose weight.

When he reached the cabin door, Xiao Hei's voice sounded again.

"Do you want to activate the protection mode? Two hours are free."

The protective armor mode is resistant to high temperature and cold, and is very effective against extreme weather.

But after switching to the protection mode, you can't use weapons as you like.

"No need." Chi Yao said to himself.

Minus 25° was nothing to him.

Although most of the reformed bodies act like humans, they are essentially different from humans.

The hatch opened slowly, and the howling cold wind came in through the gap, and Chi Yao was instantly numb from the cold.

"... Let's cut it."

The point where he docked was on a hillside in the north of the forest, and there happened to be a flat land.

From here, you can see the destroyed vegetation in the core area, as well as the herd of beasts that are still fleeing.

"Roar--!"

The cries of various beasts came from all directions, accompanied by the sound of fighting and collision.

Chi Yao glanced at the data displayed on the virtual screen, and walked down the hillside.

It is more than ten kilometers away from the core area, and the abnormal sound waves can be clearly felt, but unlike the aggressiveness of No. 333, this time the sound waves are closer to No. 820.

There is a strong sense of presence, but there is no targeted aggressiveness.

But it may also be because he is not a normal person.

Chi Yao: "How strong is the sound wave?"

As soon as the voice fell, the virtual screen in front of him jumped, showing a page of data.

Xiao Hei: "The frequency of the sound wave is 10 times higher than the range accepted by normal people. It is not recommended for the legion to approach."

Chi Yao said to himself as expected.

"Is there any effect on the modified body?"

The virtual screen jumped again, and several columns of data were displayed next to the original data.

Xiao Hei: "It has a greater impact on some beasts, and the modified body should be similar."

The genetic stability of the modified body is not as good as that of the mutant beast, and both external and internal stimuli may cause physical changes.

The ghosts will turn into beasts in a large area, is it related to this sound wave?

Chi Yao observed while walking towards the central area.

A phantom flashed in front of his eyes, and he subconsciously stepped back to avoid it.

A fourth-level red tarantula appeared in front of him.

Noticing Chi Yao, the red tarantula moved closer to him, all the barbs on its legs stood up, ready to attack instantly.

Chi Yao didn't want to waste time with this kind of thing.

He subconsciously touched the gun with his backhand, and when he realized that Xiao Hei was pierced on his body, the tarantula's leg had already stabbed him.

Chi Yao raised his hand to block, and when he was about to be pierced, the steel claws on the back of his hand popped out, blocking the spider legs.

The strength of this thing can even resist a fourth-level mutant beast. The thing made by my wife is really reliable.

"Of course, he is much more reliable than you." Xiao Hei's faint voice sounded in his ear.

When the tarantula attacked again, Chi Yao grabbed the branch and jumped up.

"Dare to say one more thing, the energy stone is gone."

Xiao Hei: "..."

A few seconds later, the steel claw pierced the fatal point of the tarantula's head. Chi Yao shook off the unknown sticky substance left on the steel claw in disgust, and picked a large leaf to wipe it when he jumped off.

"Chi, Chi Yao?!"

A male voice came from ahead, and Chi Yao looked over unhurriedly.

A ghost with a red mask and horns on its forehead stumbled towards him.

"It's too late! Come with me!" the red mask said in a panic.

Chi Yao lowered his eyes halfway and looked down at him: "Do you know who you are ordering?"

The cold voice revealed the master's impatience.

The red mask pointed at the location of the core area, and said eagerly: "It, it is coming! We must stop him!"

Chi Yao withdrew his steel claws, put his hands in his pockets, and remained motionless.

"what is it?"

Red Mask: "That's right—!"

In the middle of speaking, the red mask suddenly covered his head and groaned, and the animal-like part of his body spread out visibly to the naked eye.

Chi Yao glanced at the data on the virtual screen, and the sound waves were strengthening.

The red mask supported the tree trunk, seeing that Chi Yao seemed to be okay, he was surprised and said: "Are you okay?"

Chi Yao: "Should I have something to do?"

The eyes of the red mask flashed, and there was surprise in the voice: "Then you must be able to get close to it! As long as you can solve it, the boss will give you whatever you want!"

Chi Yao looked at the core area, then at the other two coordinates Zhang Sheng sent him, and after thinking for a moment, he walked in one direction.

Seeing that he didn't intend to go towards the core area at all, the red mask became anxious, coupled with the strong emotional fluctuations caused by the sound wave stimulation, before thinking about it, he called out his fist first.

Even if it is tied, Chi Yao must be tied.

As long as Chi Yao is gone, he will definitely be able to help them get rid of it.

Under the action of adrenaline, the red mask didn't feel afraid, and even had the confidence to beat Chi Yao.

But he was quickly slapped in the face by reality.

Chi Yao twisted his hand and smashed him against the huge tree trunk.

"Run or die, understand?"

The red mask struggled so hard that he was only afraid when he couldn't break free.

"I, I also want to defend the empire—"

Chi Yao laughed out loud, but unfortunately there was no smile in his eyes.

"Without you, the empire doesn't know how peaceful it is—"

He threw him to the ground and continued walking.

Xiao Hei: "Aren't you going to kill me?"

Chi Yao: "Why kill him? Waste my energy."

Xiao Hei: "...you have changed."

Just when Chi Yao was about to speak, he heard it add: "It's useless for you to conserve your energy."

Chi Yao: "..."

Sure enough, let Xixi revise the program.

This character is too embarrassing.

Even if it was his own, he deserved a beating.

Just a few steps away, there was a sudden scream from behind.

Chi Yao paused, turned his head to look over, the red mask under the tree was gone, only a puddle of blood and clothes fragments remained.

"Did you monitor anything just now?" Chi Yao asked.

Xiao Hei: "There are blind spots."

A video window popped up in front of him, which was the system record retrieved by Xiao Hei.

But because the nearby trees are too dense, the angle of shooting is just blocked by a tree, and the only thing in the picture can see the sudden blood splatter at the position of the red mask, and the blood flows slowly along the vines.

This place is full of mutant beasts, so it is not surprising that they will be attacked.

But at that moment just now, Chi Yao didn't feel the killing intent when they were so close.

He went back to the tree trunk and looked around. Except for the pool of blood and clothes, there were no traces.

The red mask seemed to disappear out of thin air.

Xiao Hei: "Do you want to increase the scope of monitoring?"

Xiaohei is equipped with a monitoring program, but in the protection mode, the range that can be monitored is very limited. If it is enlarged, the mode must be switched.

Chi Yao suppressed his doubts and continued walking forward.

"No, you just stay here."

Xiao Hei: "I ask you to wear a big padded jacket, but you refuse."

After walking for more than ten minutes, three similar bloodstains were found along the road, with some gun fragments scattered beside them.

Even if it is eaten by wild beasts, there will be some human tissue left behind, such as minced meat and bones, which will not be eaten so cleanly.

Walking to the middle of the two coordinates, the straight-line distance from here to the core area is less than 8 kilometers, and the frequency of the detected sound wave has tripled compared to the initial detection.

Chi Yao rubbed his forehead.

This feeling is very similar to what I felt on the spaceship in the early morning.

Going forward, the frequency of bloodstains is getting higher and higher, but the relative frequency of sound waves is decreasing.

Until the second coordinate point is reached, the sound wave frequency returns to the first detected value.

Chi Yao looked at the positions of the three coordinates on the map, and had some guesses in his mind.

He didn't stay at this point for too long, and continued to walk to the third coordinate point.

From here past, beasts and ghosts multiply.

Through the cracks in the tree trunks, almost every moment you can see the fighting of beasts and ghosts.

At the beginning, the herd of beasts was going into the forest, and the ghost desperately stopped it, but now it is just the opposite, and the ghost is using all means to keep the herd of beasts in the forest.

Suddenly something flashed out of the corner of my eye.

Chi Yao turned his head quickly, and the ghost who was fighting with the beast just now disappeared suddenly, and there was only a pool of blood left at the place where he was originally.

What kind of beast attacks so fast?He couldn't even see clearly.

Chi Yao looked up at the sky.

There were no birds flying nearby, and there was no movement on the branches.

"Switch to Heat Sensing Mode."

As soon as the words fell, the image in Chi Yao's left eye changed instantly.

Looking across the dense branches, there are indeed no moving creatures.

He looked down at the ground.

Still red.

Xiao Hei: "From my calculations, it's not a mutated beast that attacked this person, and even level [-] mutations can't reach this speed."

Chi Yao was not surprised by this result.

But what is it?

He was very fast, and after half an hour, he reached the third coordinate point.

Similar to the previous half of the journey, after reaching this point, the intensity of the sound wave dropped to the original value.

His previous speculation was confirmed.

The three coordinates given by Zhang Sheng may be the point with the lowest sound wave interference near the core area.

Some areas have natural sound wave shielding ability, which can reduce sound wave interference to a certain extent.

If it's within this range, it's okay for people from Jiying to come over.

But it is impossible for them to stay here and not move.

After roughly understanding the situation, Chi Yao sent the photos taken at the three coordinate points to Xu Ming.

[Check the surrounding mountains. 】

If we can find out the reason for the decrease of the sound wave, it will also be of great help to the subsequent actions.

"Roar--!"

The roar sounded again.

Chi Yao didn't need to make a special identification, judging from the rustling movements, it was very close to him.

Just as this thought flashed across his mind, a level five mutant wolf rushed out and rushed towards him.

While Chi Yao was dodging, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the two black masks following him.

Taking advantage of the moment he flashed behind the tree trunk, he asked Xiao Hei to activate the stealth mode.

The wolf king rushed to nothing, bared his teeth and looked around.

Behind it, two black masks tried to lead it to the core area, and soon got into a fight with the wolf king.

Chi Yao sat on the tree trunk and watched them beating with his legs bent.

Within 2 minutes, one of the ghosts suddenly disappeared in place.

Chi Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression was cold.

This time he got closer, and he saw that the moment the ghost disappeared, the vines on the ground wrapped around the other's ankle.

It's like bringing people into the soil and disappearing completely in an instant.

But the strange thing is that there are no potholes on the ground, except for a puddle of blood, nothing has changed.

The smell of blood aroused the wolf king's animal nature, and the fighting power was halved, and the remaining black mask was eaten by the wolf king in less than a minute.

Chi Yao watched coldly.

When the wolf king left after eating, his eyes swept over the two pools of blood.

There is indeed a big difference.

But how could the tree vine be so aggressive?

Could it be that the plants in this forest have also mutated?

Xiao Hei: "Watch out behind!"

At the same time as Xiao Hei's voice sounded, Chi Yao turned around and drew out his saber to sweep across.

It's a pity that it was only swept empty.

That thing was faster than him.

Xiao Hei: "It's a tree vine."

The video screen that popped up in front of Chi Yao played the monitoring that Xiao Hei retrieved from the system, and the playback speed dropped to 0.1 times of the original.

A seemingly ordinary tree vine suddenly came out from behind the branch, and came straight towards him in a daze.

Stealth mode has been activated, but it doesn't seem to work on this vine.

Either this tree vine can distinguish the wavelength emitted by living things like him, or this tree vine has a direct or indirect connection with the sound wave subject.

Chi Yao jumped off the branch and walked under a pine tree that was entangled with vines.

The blood splattered just now has been sucked dry.

Chi Yao cut off one of them with his saber, but the section of the gray-blue vine was bright red.

He dug out a little bit with the tip of his knife and held it in front of his eyes for observation.

The color and texture are similar to those of red heart dragon fruit, and the red sap is constantly oozing out.

The dense footsteps sounded, very heavy, and Chi Yao knew it was a herd without looking at Chi Yao.

Judging from the height of the voice, it should be heading towards the core area.

He asked Xiao Hei to keep part of the tree and vine tissue, and follow the movement of the herd to the core area.

Many of the pictures taken by the satellite are blocked by trees and the details cannot be seen. When I walked in here, Chi Yao realized that this seemingly ordinary forest was full of weirdness everywhere.

The ground is covered with vines of various sizes, woven more densely than a carpet.

Stepping on it has a creepy feeling like stepping on a human leg.

The nearby trees are larger than the outer circle. Judging from the cross-section of the damaged trees, they are in normal color, but the strange thing is that these collapsed trees are all wrapped in vines and stand upright again. As long as you give some more time, they can recover to their full size. Originally completely upright.

After living for so many years, he has never seen a vine that can help the host put the torso back together.

The sound of footsteps was approaching, and the herd of deer ran to a place and stopped suddenly. No matter how hard the ghost behind them drove, they just lingered.

After persisting for half an hour, before Chi Yao's patience ran out, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance in his nose.

Very light and strange, with a stinky smell of blood in the fresh grassy fragrance.

Chi Yao's heart twitched, as if someone had suddenly tightened his grip.

The smell was clearly stinky, but it held an indescribable attraction to him.

He unconsciously took half a step forward, and suddenly woke up when the soles of his feet touched the abnormal touch of the vines.

Before Chi Yao could speak, several layers of flexible protective covers were automatically added to his mouth and nose.

Xiao Hei: "Don't cheat."

Chi Yao: "..."

The herd of deer who refused to move forward suddenly ran wildly.

Chi Yao watched as one of the deer tripped over a tree vine, its bent front legs seemed to be dissolved.

In the blink of an eye, it was like falling into the water and disappearing completely.

Sensing the abnormality under his feet, Chi Yao backed away quickly, and Xiao Hei's low curse sounded in his ears.

With a thought in Chi Yao's mind, the micro-engines on his legs and soles of his feet started, and he flew into the air before the tree vines caught up with him.

In just 2 minutes, dozens of deer were completely gone.

Chi Yao looked at the blood-stained vines thoughtfully.

Is it corrosion or devouring?

Just at that moment, he seemed to feel the whole ground shake.

Just as this thought flashed through, the ground suddenly began to shake violently.

The ghosts hiding in the distance panicked and quickly disappeared from Chi Yao's sight.

The sound waves suddenly strengthened, and this time he could feel the obvious aggression, coming towards him.

Trees and vines protruded from the dense grass, and Chi Yao increased his propulsion to fly upwards, barely avoiding it.

Flying to the top of the tree, there is no shelter around, howling sounds come and go from all directions, and the panic and fear of the beast can be clearly felt.

But Chi Yao couldn't control that much at the moment.

His gaze stopped at the open space below, unable to move away.

After nearly 10 minutes of the strong earthquake, a [-]-[-]-meter-long opening suddenly opened in a piece of land, revealing the scarlet eyes below——
