"Things don't look normal here."

The two sat in the cave, and Jing Xi observed the situation outside through the entrance of the cave, and whispered, "What happened?"

It has only been a few hours since the signal was interrupted, and all the beasts and ghosts have disappeared.

Speaking of this, Chi Yao's eyes turned cold.

"It's it, it's awakened."

Jing Xi turned her head to look at him, a little surprised.

"Did you see it?"

"I don't know if it counts as seeing it." Thinking of something, Chi Yao asked, "Have you checked that kind of tree vine?"

Jing Xi nodded: "It's a parasitic vine, a rare mutant plant. Qiu Tianlin said that this plant can parasitize animals and live by sucking flesh and blood."

This result did not surprise Chi Yao too much.

"The herd here has been eaten up by them."

Jing Xi's eyes widened slightly.

Although he had guessed something along the way, he was still a little shocked to hear Chi Yao's words.

"Where's the ghost?" Jing Xi asked.

"Even the fifth-level mutants can't escape, how can they survive?"

Chi Yao sneered, recalling that huge eye, goosebumps came up again, "If it weren't for hiding here, we probably wouldn't be able to talk so leisurely now."

Jing Xi: "Is it related to the magnetic field here?"

Chi Yao nodded: "These parasitic vines don't have the ability to perceive their prey, they rely on sound waves to move, once the sound waves are blocked, they become blind."

Jing Xi frowned thoughtfully.

"wrong--"

In this forest, the number of parasitic vines is very large. How did they follow the instructions of a sound wave?

Unless they all grow on one body.

Jing Xi: "These parasitic vines may belong to the same tree vine."

But if this is the case, how huge is this tree vine?

Chi Yao: "I guessed half right."

Jing Xi's eyes flashed: "You know?"

Chi Yao held his hand and leaned against the corner of the wall, turning his head to look outside the cave.

"Before you came, I was just guessing."

Jing Xi: "How to say?"

Chi Yao: "You said that these parasitic vines can parasitize on animals and live by sucking blood, but they don't necessarily have to suck the blood of the host."

"You mean they are not the same plant, but parasitized on the same animal?" Jing Xi frowned, "But the possibility is too low, how huge it must be to provide nutrients for the parasitic vines in this forest animal?"

Chi Yao: "What about the size of this forest?"

Jing Xi was startled, and after meeting his eyes, she understood what he meant almost immediately.

It's just that I understand it, but it's still too shocking: "You mean, this forest is some kind of living animal?"

Chi Yao nodded: "That's it."

"Under normal circumstances, a host parasitized by parasitic vines may be drained of flesh and blood." Chi Yao smiled coldly, "But it is just the opposite, using these parasitic vines to absorb prey and provide nutrients for itself."

In the beginning, the ghosts tried their best to prevent the herd from entering the forest, probably because they didn't want it to absorb nutrients and become stronger.

But then the herd of beasts fled, and the ghost stopped them from leaving, fearing that they wanted to use them as sacrifices.

Hearing what Chi Yao said, Jing Xi said calmly: "Feed it with the herd of animals, and you can save some losses, but it's a pity that you still made a wrong calculation."

Chi Yao: "It hasn't fully woken up yet, so we have to find a way to kill it."

Whatever this monster is, it's too dangerous.

A gust of cold wind carried a strange fragrance into the cave.

Jing Xi: "What smell?"

Chi Yao's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing quickened unconsciously.

"It's attracting prey again."

Jing Xi smelled it, and apart from being able to smell the smell, she didn't feel anything.

He turned his head to look at Chi Yao: "Then - Chi Yao, what's wrong with you?"

Chi Yao was short of breath and his face was ugly.

"This smell makes me very uncomfortable."

Jing Xi hurriedly supported his shoulder: "It's hard? Put on the mask, Xiao Hei, and activate the purification mode."

"Tried it, it didn't work."

Cold sweat slid down from the forehead, and Chi Yao supported the forehead, "The smell will fade in about 10 minutes. If other people or beasts approach, it will emit this smell."

Hearing this, Jing Xi was extremely grateful for her decision.

"I have had people block all the jumping points and intercept all the ghosts who come here. No one should come in in the short term."

Chi Yao felt his heart being grabbed, and the thoughts that flashed through his mind over and over again were forcibly suppressed by him.

I don't know how long it has passed, but the smell still fills the whole space.

Chi Yao felt that his mind became a little fuzzy, his rationality disappeared in bursts, and his coherent perception became short paragraphs.

"Chi Yao?!"

Jing Xi watched as Chi Yao's eyes turned into vertical pupils, his canine teeth became sharper, and his slender and beautiful hands gradually turned into animal claws.

He quickly undid Chi Yao's cufflinks, and the animalization was still spreading.

"Chi Yao? Wake up?!"

Jing Xi didn't know how much pain he was facing at the moment, so he could only watch and could do nothing to help.

Hearing Jing Xi's anxious voice, Chi Yao subconsciously hugged him tightly, buried her in his neck and sucked hard.

Sensing his intention, Jing Xi released Xiaolan to block the entrance of the cave, trying to isolate the smell inside and outside the cave as much as possible, and at the same time release pheromone.

The sweet smell of wine brought back Chi Yao's rationality that was about to fly away.

He whispered: "It's okay, don't worry."

This smell is not so much a kind of injury as an induction, inducing the activation of the part of the gene in his body that belongs to the beast, and suggesting that he is approaching the core area.

It's like hypnosis.

"It's no wonder that the phenomenon of animalization in ghosts is so serious—"

Jing Xi looked serious.

Before, they guessed that ghosts would turn into beasts on a large scale when they encountered strong enemies, but the facts were not completely consistent with their guesses.

After blocking the hole, the smell did not disappear.

Jing Xi was a little anxious, and ordered Xiaolan to start the purification mode again.

Chi Yao panted slightly: "I didn't smell this smell, it directly acts on the nerves, it can't be blocked, it can't dissipate, it will be fine in a while."

Jing Xi's face was cold, her heart was broken.

"Xiao Hei, check the degree of animalization."

Xiao Hei: "The animalized area exceeds 15% - 16% - 17% -"

The level is still increasing, and once it exceeds 30%, the consequences will be disastrous.

Thinking of the two repair agents in his pocket, Jing Xi hesitated.

The medicine developed by Qiu Tianlin would basically not cause any major problems, but after all, he had to be careful when using it on Chi Yao.

Chi Yao: "It's very hungry."

Jing Xi's eyes flashed: "Can you perceive its thoughts?"

Chi Yao: "I can feel it."

Hearing Chi Yao's heavy panting, Jing Xi felt very guilty.

"Sorry, if I don't come, it probably won't smell like this again—"

The scent that emanates this time is for him.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Chi Yao looked up at him, "It's very hungry, and it will keep luring prey in for food. It has nothing to do with you."

Seeing the change on Chi Yao's face, Jing Xi's heart twitched.

It was more serious than the time when he ran away in the military, and his ears also changed in shape.

"Isn't it ugly?" Chi Yao laughed at himself.

Jing Xi held his face and kissed him gently: "Qiu Tianlin gave me a repair agent, but I don't know how it will work—"

Chi Yao took a breath: "Have you brought it?"

Jing Xi hesitated for a moment, took out the medicine from his pocket, and handed it to him.

"Use it or not, you decide for yourself."

Chi Yao glanced at it, raised his hand to take it, but found that his hands were already in the state of claws, he gave a wry smile.

"you help me."

Jing Xi: "Don't you think about it again? What if—"

"For me, there is no consequence more serious than turning into a beast."

Chi Yao looked into his eyes, "You should understand me."

Jing Xi's throat choked.

Perhaps Chi Yao is relatively successful in transforming the body, and beast transformation can bring all-round improvements in strength and perception, but he also knows how much Chi Yao hates this special ability.

For Chi Yao, this is proof of his unbearable childhood.

Chi Yao let Xiao Hei return to normal state, opened his neckline, and looked at Jing Xi.

"quick."

Jing Xi glanced at his collarbone, where the skin had become rough and hard.

Without further hesitation, he picked up the syringe and stuck it into Chi Yao's upper arm, pushing the medicine in.

The icy liquid quickly spread throughout the body along the blood.

Chi Yao clenched his teeth, resisting the violent tearing feeling.

The whole person is like tumbling boiling water, constantly reorganizing from the inside out.

Jing Xi threw away the syringe and clenched his hands tightly.

"It'll be fine."

Chi Yao had no time to care about what he was talking about, and just spent all his energy fighting against the severe pain.

Looking at the timer on the virtual screen, Jing Xi's heart beat wildly.

After 30 seconds, Chi Yao's claws gradually disappeared.

After 1 minute, the skin on the fingers regains a delicate touch.

One minute and 30 seconds later, the skin from Chi Yao's neck to face recovered, and the length of the canine teeth slowly shrank back.

Jing Xi helped Chi Yao wipe off the cold sweat that slid down his forehead.

"Do you feel better?"

Seeing the unconcealable distress in his eyes, Chi Yao smiled, leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.

"Chou Tianlin does have something."

Every animalization is an unknown process.

Chi Yao thought he could control it with confidence, but after all, the modified body was artificially produced in a laboratory, and no one knew how many unknown things were hidden.

Maybe the animalization will end his life.

After relaxing, Jing Xi realized that he was also sweating from nervousness.

"Is there any discomfort?"

Chi Yao shook his head, but in fact the animal state is fading, but the human is still very uncomfortable.

The smell was still working, and the effect of the repair agent was too overbearing, causing him to consume a lot of energy.

Chi Yao: "Is there another one?"

"This is a spare." Jing Xi handed it to Chi Yao, "Since it's useful, I'll keep it for you."

Chi Yao slapped his collar, but didn't answer, and said casually, "Leave it there. If I lose control, you can give me an injection. Anyway, you will definitely be by my side."

Jing Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at him blankly.

Noticing the look in his eyes, Chi Yao smiled and said, "What's wrong, looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"

Jing Xi shook his head and took the medicine back: "That's right, no matter what the situation, I will accompany you."

By 11 minutes, the smell gradually subsided.

Chi Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and joked, "It's been another calamity."

Jing Xi: "How often does this smell usually release? Or does it only come out when new prey approach?"

Chi Yao thought for a while: "This is the second time since the interruption of the signal."

After confirming that there was no smell at all, Jing Xi took Xiaolan back, and there was still a big problem before him.

Only three markers have the ability to block sound waves, and they will not be discovered unless they stay here.

Jing Xi moved two steps towards the entrance of the cave, and asked in a low voice, "What's your plan?"

Chi Yao leaned against the hole on the other side, facing him.

"For any animal, the eyes are one of the fatal points. I originally planned to check the interval between its release of smell and then go to have a look."

An unknown creature of such a large size can release a sonic attack that even a battleship can't resist, and it can also emit a scent to lure all beasts into the hunted area.

If you don't fully understand, there is no way to start.

Jing Xi recalled the parasitic vines he saw on the way here just now, and said in a low voice: "If it has been hunting at this frequency, there should have been no mutant beasts in this area long ago, and the ghost's attitude towards it is also very subtle."

Chi Yao: "Indeed."

If the ghost found it early, why wasn't it dealt with earlier?

The Moby Dick is already in Li Bo's hands. He can bomb the entire C85 just by finding an excuse to open up wasteland. He won't wait until now.

Taking a step back, when the ghosts found it, they were already unable to deal with it, so they could completely ignore it. Why did they rush here suddenly at the risk of complete annihilation?

"It cannot be formed in a day or two. If it is not for long-term hunting, it is very likely that there will be a dormant period."

Chi Yao sneered, "Sleep when you're full, and eat when you're full."

On the one hand, the ghost does not want it to wake up, but after it wakes up, it tries to feed it and wait for it to fall asleep again.

"I've never heard of the existence of such a creature, and it may have something to do with the organization." Jing Xi's face was very cold.

"It's not possible, it's certain."

Chi Yao folded his arms and leaned against the wall, "You forgot, these three coordinates were given by Zhang Sheng. He is the leader of the alliance who is looking for someone, why does he know so much about the situation here?"

Judging from Zhang Sheng's attitude and the information he gave.

He has known the situation here for a long time and has done investigation for a long time.

Jing Xi followed his words and speculated: "Maybe this is also one of the planets where the main activities are organized, and some missing persons have been imprisoned?"

Chi Yao: "If I can contact Zhang Sheng again, I should be able to know more things. Unfortunately, the Internet is disconnected."

Jing Xi: "Why don't you leave first and then make plans?"

One of them is affected by the smell, and the other is affected by the sound wave, and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced. Moreover, the two of them cannot deal with an enemy of this level.

Chi Yao nodded: "That's the only way to go. Go back and bring Qiu Tianlin and his sister over for a meeting."

Jing Xi pressed the sensor button on the side of the personal terminal, and immediately received a response from the mecha.

"I'll let the mecha fly over, and your fighter will stay here first."

Chi Yao: "Yes."

The speed of the flying dragon mech was very fast, and they heard the roar of the engine in less than 2 minutes.

Chi Yao raised his head, and saw the mecha dived down at nearly 90 degrees vertically, and plunged straight into the open space ten meters away from the entrance of the cave.

"...Are you sure it's programmed correctly?"

Jing Xi pulled him up and ran away.

"The sound waves here will affect it."

With the danger of staying for 1 minute, Jing Xi asked Feilong AI to open the hatch and go up with Chi Yao.

But before entering, the ground shook violently again, accompanied by a loud noise.

"What's that sound?!" Chi Yao stabilized his body while holding the cabin door, and turned his head to look around.

Jing Xi frowned: "It sounds like the ground is cracking."

The ground shook violently, Chi Yao suddenly felt something was wrong.

Almost at the same time, Xiao Hei's voice sounded in his head.

Xiao Hei: [This forest is lifted from the ground and is rising. 】

Chi Yao said in his heart that it was true.

He pushed Jing Xi in, and closed the hatch with his backhand.

"Let the flying dragon fly high into the sky."

The two arrived in the cockpit, and Jing Xi quickly gave instructions.

After the mech rose 1000 meters, the flying dragon AI kept warning.

[Warning, the mecha is encountering an unknown sound wave attack, the detection system is malfunctioning, and it is entering the self-inspection repair program--the scanning system is faulty, and it is entering the self-inspection--]

Jing Xi set to ignore the warning, and checked the monitoring screen with Chi Yao.

Looking at it from a high altitude, the "forest" seems to be suspended in mid-air suddenly, and it is still rising.

"These two are its wings?"

Jing Xi circled two slowly swinging areas with his hand.

Something this big can still fly.

Chi Yao had a vague premonition.

The ghost is so afraid of it, is it because it will not only stay here, but also move to other planets?

Chi Yao pointed to the place where the eyes were found before: "Xixi, aim at this place and shoot."

Jing Xi: "Okay."

But several shots in a row are useless except for blowing up the woods.

Jing Xi: "Under the soil is its skin, it's too hard to explode."

Chi Yao's eyes scanned the virtual screen, which showed that the height of the mech was 5000 meters, and the height of the "forest" was at least 3000 meters, and there was no drive to slow down.

It can't go on like this.

If it can really leave here, no matter which planet it goes to, it will be very scary.

Suddenly, the ground in the blasted area cracked open, revealing a scarlet eye.

Through the monitoring screen, Chi Yao saw provocation in this eye.

It doesn't take them seriously at all.

Chi Yao rubbed his wrists, and said in a deep voice, "Xixi, try to contact them and let them fly away."

Seeing him turn around, Jing Xi hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?"

Chi Yao said with a cold face, "Even if you can't kill it, you can't let it leave here easily."

"Chi Yao! Don't mess around!"

Jing Xi couldn't call him, so he could only try to contact Anbu and Feilong's battleship first.

With Xiao Hei around, Chi Yao landed near its eyes smoothly.

This eye has no pupil, but Chi Yao can feel it looking at him.

A few shots were fired, to no avail.

Xiao Hei: [The time I can bear is only 10 minutes, if you don't go back by then, I will throw you away. 】

Chi Yao looked at that eye condescendingly, his fingertips became slender, and smiled: "That's enough."

The surrounding parasitic vines began to stir, constantly penetrating through the gaps in the trees, surrounding him, waiting for the command to attack at any time.

The two sides were in a stalemate for a moment, and Chi Yao suddenly swooped down and flew towards his eyes.

When he moved, the parasitic vine also moved.

When Jing Xi finally got in touch with the warships of both sides, Chi Yao was no longer in sight.

"Reduce height to 3500!"

Flying Dragon AI: "Warning, the body has encountered an unknown sound wave attack, it is not recommended to lower the altitude."

Jing Xi didn't have time to correct the program at all, so he turned off the autopilot and drove by himself.

With Xiaohong's anti-interference, it can offset a large part of the sound waves, but Jing Xi is still in a cold sweat from the pain.

There are flicking parasitic vines everywhere in the surveillance screen.

Jing Xi controlled the mech to draw out the long knife on its back and dive down.

Suddenly something white flashed in front of his eyes, and Jing Xi quickly zoomed in on the picture.

The white object jumped flexibly among the parasitic vines, blood spattering.

After seeing what it was, Jing Xi couldn't recover in a daze.

It was about four meters tall, with soft and soft white fur. The sharp claws scratched across the eye, leaving several deep scratches.

This white wolf is—Chi Yao?
