The Earth People are so Fierce

Meng Chao's fingertips ejected a pale golden arc.

Winding a few harvesting blades, swirling around the cable, scraped off some samples of the covering.

He put the cover sample, the light green liquid extracted from the deformed monster's body, and the weird green lichen under the spar microscope for study.

Sure enough, they all discovered the extremely active thing between animal cells, plant cells, and fungal cells.

Meng Chao asked Long Feijun and others to come and observe.

I thought about it myself.

"I have an idea, or rather, a question."

After everyone had seen it, Meng Chao said, "Have you ever thought about how the monsters came from? I mean, like the'Seven Star Tarantula', it can integrate the characteristics of arthropods and mammals. Or'Gryphon', a monster that can combine liger monsters and falcon monsters. It certainly did not evolve naturally. There must be some...'modulator', right?"

Long Feijun and the explorers looked at each other and nodded at the same time: "That's right."

"And this kind of modulation of'combining the most brutal characteristics of various animals together in an attempt to create the strongest carbon-based biological weapons' will have a high probability of failure, because the organs and motor functions of most animals are fundamental. Incompatibility, a little carelessness, there will be the same situation as this small saber-toothed tiger with double wings, and its different organs are contradictory, let alone fighting, even survival becomes extremely difficult."

Meng Chao continued, "Therefore, the modulator will have to conduct a lot of experiments to fuse part of the organs of countless monsters. No, we can't talk about fusion now. It should be stitched together and screened out with strong combat power and survival time. Longer varieties, abandon those patchwork failures.

"This process is somewhat like the optimization of seeds in our human genetic farm. After the selection is made from generation to generation, we can naturally get the crops we need most.

"The Mist Hidden Territory is the'gene farm' of monster civilization. No, it should be a'laboratory' to be more precise.

"The main brain of monster civilization is in the depths of the hidden mist, stitching up a large number of deformed and ugly monsters, and then releasing them, observing their traits, combat effectiveness and survival time, and analyzing whether there is a possibility of further modulation.

"If the'battle parameters' and'survival time' are relatively good, they can be further modulated, or copied in large quantities, and become the'beast tide' we see."

Everyone followed Meng Chao's thoughts, and they all showed a suddenly realized expression.

"How to explain the super active cells contained in moss, lichen and deformed monsters?" Long Feijun asked.

"I think this is some kind of... ‘biological glue’."

Meng Chaodao said, "The so-called'monsters' are the stitching together of different animals, even the organs, characteristics, and traits of animals and plants, which will inevitably trigger an extremely strong rejection reaction, two or even three sets of completely different organs. They cannot coexist. At this time, they must be glued together with'biological glue'.

"Originally, a monster whose organs were forcibly patched together might not survive three to five hours.

"After the ‘biological glue’ is bonded, it may survive for three to five days or even longer.

"We originally thought that monsters are the products of natural evolution, and overestimating their survival time, three or five days is naturally not enough.

"But if some monsters are artificially crafted and the purpose is to attack Dragon City, it will be enough if it can survive for three to five days."

Long Feijun nodded repeatedly, thought for a while, and then asked: "Then, why didn't this mysterious'biological glue' be found in the monsters captured by Dragon City in the past?"

"Two possibilities."

Meng Chao stretched out two fingers, "Either, those monsters are all mass-produced experimentally successful, and their organs are already perfectly compatible, and there is no need to use "biological glue" for bonding.

"Either, this weird cell has been integrated into the monster's body in another, more mature and more secretive way, and our current biochemical technology cannot detect them.

"Wait, if that's the case..."

Meng Chao stopped talking suddenly.

Looking at the emerald green in the distance, so strong that it doesn't look like the real lichen, I thought about it again.

Suddenly, he tossed the small saber-toothed tiger with wings and ribs far away towards the lichen.

The **** corpse of the monster fell into the emerald green lichen, and suddenly a green tide surged.

Numerous lichens seemed to be stimulated, and from the depths of the fungus blanket, tiny green silks stretched out to envelop the corpse of the monster.

In the beginning, the corpse of the monster bulged high like a small hill.

Soon, it was low and narrowed in a sound of "chittering, chuckling, chuckling".

After about a minute, the lichen returned to its original state, as if nothing happened.

Only one corpse is missing.

To exchange good books, follow the vx public account. [Book Friends Base Camp]. Pay attention now and receive cash red envelopes!

Meng Chao motioned to Long Feijun to let the exploration team boil the lichen.

The two exploratory team members stepped forward again and picked up the flamethrower.

The lichen turned into ashes, revealing the fine bones below.

This saber-toothed tiger with double wings, although only the size of a bobcat.

But with a pair of wide wings, there are hundreds of catties.

But it was swallowed up by lichen in a minute.

Numerous needle-like holes appeared in the bones, as if they had been immersed in extremely corrosive acid for a long time.

It seemed that if they burned the lichen later, this saber-toothed tiger would have no bones left.

Moreover, not far from the saber-toothed tiger corpse, they also found more traces of the corpse of the monster.

Because of being swallowed by lichen for too long, these monster corpses are really only a bit of bone scum left.

But the number is really large. According to Meng Chao's identification, there are at least dozens of different monsters, the hardest claws, teeth and horns.

"This makes sense. Since Haze Hermitage is a large natural laboratory, why don't we see too many corpses of'experimental bodies' and'failed products' here."

Meng Chao said, "The weird cells contained in these green lichens are not only the magical'biological glue', but the lichen itself is also a natural'scavenger', which can eat the weak and strong among the experimental bodies. Re-decomposition into the most basic raw materials and energy, perhaps in some incredible way, can be transmitted back to the ultimate lair of monster civilization, allowing the'master brain' to carry out a new round of modulation.

"Now, there is only one question left.

"These emerald green lichens should have sniffed the blood on the corpse of the monster, and their activity would increase sharply, swallowing it up.

"Does the blood of humans also arouse their strong reaction?"

As Meng Chao spoke, the harvesting blade whirled, cutting a small wound on his fingertips and leaning on another piece of lichen not far away.

A drop of blood oozes out of the wound, but before it falls, it arouses the reaction of the lichen directly under the finger.

Several clusters of lichens "hissed" out the green silk, greedily asking for blood.

Meng Chao dripped blood into the lichen.

It was like ice dripping into a boiling oil pan, arousing a harsh "squeak, sneer, hiss" sound.

He squeezed a drop of blood to the edge of the lichen, about twenty or thirty centimeters from the lichen, on the scorched ground.

Two clusters of lichens sniffed the breath of blood and squirmed through.

But the farther cluster of lichens only squirmed five centimeters before retracting.

The remaining cluster was smoothly licked to the blood drop, and as the wisps of redness spread among the emerald green, it became more gorgeous and intense.

Meng Chao threw another drop of blood one meter away.

This time, none of the lichens moved.

"They can't perceive the flesh and blood one meter away?" Long Feijun asked.

"No, it's not worthwhile."

Meng Chaodao said, "Activate your super vision and you will find that when I threw the blood one meter away, several green silks appeared on several clusters of lichens, and the direction of the North Korean blood trembled a few times.

"It should have sensed it, but the energy consumed by mobilizing the entire settlement to squirm in the past is far from being able to make up for a drop of blood, so it doesn't bother to move.

"If it is not a drop of blood, but a human being covered in cuts and bruised blood, I believe that they will definitely come by without hesitation."

This sentence caused everyone to get goose bumps.

"It seems that the most terrifying thing in the Mist Hidden Territory is not some monsters, but these weird lichens?" Long Feijun murmured.

Meng Chao agreed with his judgment.

They temporarily named these dangerous lichens "Green Tide".

After repeated tests, it was found that Green Tide possesses extremely strong mobility and regeneration capabilities, which can invade animals and plants, devour flesh and blood, capture nutrients, proliferate indefinitely, and even cover the entire jungle.

The good news is that the supernatural powers have a strong containment effect on the green tide.

And they are afraid of fire, so they can be eliminated temporarily with flamethrower and incendiary bomb.

If it was fired by a train cannon, the heavy incendiary bomb filled with fire spar could even be completely solved.

Of course, it is best not to stand by people when it is "completely resolved".

Otherwise, it would be "burnt jade" in the literal sense.

In addition, there is more good news.

After the parts of the portal were inspected, the technicians pieced together all the parts needed for a portal.

Then just take the time to assemble it.

After the psychic frenzy caused by the carpet bombing subsided, the correspondents also made contact with the other nine exploration teams and the rear, and connected the tactical data link.

Except for the Kunpeng who was attacked by the UHV transmission tower and had to call for long-range fire support, the other nine exploratory teams went deep into the jungle without danger.

Before the magnetic interference became strong again, they successfully shared each other's location and the latest topographic and geomorphic maps, and their exploration of the misty area increased to more than 60%.

"Since the personnel are still in order, we will march towards Tiankeng in ten routes according to the original plan!"

The strange green tide made Long Feijun feel hairy.

There were many dreams in the night, and he made a decisive decision.
