"This..." Zhang Song held the remote control tightly in his hand, staring at the screen, controlling the drone to hover in the air.
As the camera zoomed in, the scene below gradually became clearer, and all the details were displayed before his eyes without reservation.
However, when he saw everything clearly, his whole body seemed to be struck by lightning in an instant, and he stood there blankly, his mind going blank.
It was a small milky white tree that exuded a strange light. Its branches were twisted and intertwined, like ferocious pythons.
The leaves took on a strange shape, like grinning faces.
What's even more disturbing is that there is a strong smell of blood surrounding this tree, as if it had just experienced a brutal killing.
Right next to this scary milky white tree, there was actually a person standing!
This man was tall and straight, and his black robes fluttered in the wind, giving him a mysterious feeling.
He stood there quietly, staring ahead expressionlessly, as if he was indifferent to everything happening around him.
Zhang Song's eyes widened, his heart filled with doubts and fear.
What kind of monster is this little milky white tree?
Why does it appear here?
And who is this person standing next to it?
Is it true that this scary little tree is controlled by this man, as I guessed?
However, if this is the case, what kind of power does this man possess?
The more Zhang Song thought about it, the more he felt that the matter was beyond imagination. Cold sweat began to break out on his forehead and his hands began to tremble involuntarily.
Although he couldn't determine the truth at this moment, he knew one thing - that man was definitely not simple!
Even if the small milky white tree is not controlled by it, there must be some connection between the two.
Otherwise, with the ferocity shown by this small tree, how could it not attack the man so close?
Thinking of this, Zhang Song couldn't help but take a breath.
After Zhang Song took a deep breath, he quickly calmed down his somewhat panicked heart and concentrated on controlling the drone to fly back.
On the way back while controlling the drone, shocking scenes came to his eyes one after another.
Through the real-time images transmitted by the drone, Zhang Song was shocked to find that countless pollutants were pouring in from all directions, and they were continuously converging towards the direction of the small milky white tree like a tide.
It seems that there is a mysterious and powerful force that is being continuously released from this milky white tree. It is like a very attractive magnet, firmly pulling these pollutants, making them run forward one after another regardless of everything. Towards here.
However, what is strange is that although there are still a large number of pollutants coming from a distance, the attack range of the small milky white tree seems to be quite limited.
It did not launch an attack on those pollutants that were a little further away. You must know that with the terrifying strength that this milky white tree had shown before, if it used all its strength, it would be simply impossible to wipe out these swarming pollutants in one fell swoop. Easy as pie.
Faced with such a strange scene, Zhang Song also murmured in his heart, but at this time he had no time to care too much.
The most important thing right now is to quickly recover his drone safely, and then report everything he witnessed here to his boss in detail as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Zhang Song couldn't help but speed up the movement of the control stick in his hand, and at the same time paid close attention to the situation around the drone, for fear of any accidents.
There was absolutely nothing normal about that man and that little milky white tree.
It didn't take long for Zhang Song to skillfully manipulate the controller in his hand and successfully retract the small and exquisite drone smoothly.
Then, without any hesitation, he quickly turned around and left the place.
At this moment, he was rushing back to his gathering place without stopping.
Along the way, Zhang Song hurriedly walked, thinking secretly in his heart about what he had just seen.
After a not too short journey, Zhang Song finally arrived at his gathering place - which was also a building that had been abandoned for a long time.
However, unlike before, this building is located in a more secluded location and the surrounding environment is relatively safe.
Not only that, other members also gathered here.
Zhang Song ignored rest and greetings and walked straight to their boss.
I saw that this old man, who was majestic and tall, was none other than Zhou Dashan.
Zhang Song took a deep breath and reported all the scenes he had just witnessed to Zhou Dashan.
After listening to Zhang Song's narration, Zhou Dashan's originally resolute face frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about the key point.
After a moment, he said without hesitation: "During this period, you don't need to pay attention to other matters for the time being, and concentrate on continuing to monitor the other party's every move. Once you find any abnormality, be sure to report it to me as soon as possible!"
Zhang Song nodded quickly and responded: "Understood, I'll do it right away!"
After receiving clear instructions from his leader, he did not dare to delay for a moment, immediately turned around and left, and climbed back to the top of the previous building.
At the same time, he skillfully controlled the drone to continue flying in the previous direction.
As time passed by, the drone kept moving forward in the sky.
Finally, in the picture it captured, the charmingly lustrous milky white tree and the figure of the mysterious man reappeared...
Because pollutants from all directions are continuously gathering here like a tide, a war is happening here.
Only the milky white tree roots, as crystal clear as white jade, were seen, with thunderous momentum, constantly piercing the heads of the polluted bodies with ferocious faces and stinking odors.
No matter which direction you look from, the milky white tree roots are intertwined like a dense spider web, forming an impenetrable line of defense.
Despite their best efforts, the polluting entities that rushed towards them were still unable to break through this iron wall made of milky white tree roots in the face of such a tight defense.
Surprisingly, as time went by, these pollutants not only failed to cause substantial damage to this area, but instead became excellent nutrients for nourishing these white tree roots.
Every polluted body penetrated by tree roots will quickly dry up, as if all the vitality and energy in its body have been drained by the white tree roots in an instant.
I don't know if it was just Zhang Song's illusion, but he vaguely felt that the attack range of the white tree roots was slightly wider than before.
Zhang Song couldn't help but frown, his eyes fixed on the raging white tree roots, and he observed carefully with all his concentration.
He wanted to find out the truth behind this strange phenomenon. What was the power that made these ordinary tree roots have such powerful attack power and devouring ability?
And what does this change mean to them? Is it a blessing or a curse?
At this moment, countless questions came to mind, making Zhang Song fall into deep thinking...
After a while, Zhang Song stared straight ahead, becoming more and more certain that his intuition was not false.
I saw that small milky white tree that was as warm as mutton-fat jade, harvesting the surrounding pollutants at an alarming speed.
Every kill is like a thrilling performance, and the little tree itself continues to transform and evolve in this killing feast.
When the roots of the small milky white tree pierced the head of the pollutant like lightning, a jaw-dropping scene happened - like an efficient vacuum cleaner, it sucked the entire pollutant into it instantly, leaving no root hairs. Down, not to mention the residue.
Such a terrifying devouring ability makes the small milky white tree seem to be an unrivaled presence on this land.
Zhang Song observed all this with concentration, not missing any detail.
After some careful analysis, he finally confirmed his judgment 100% from two key details.
First, the original attack range of the meandering roots of the milky white tree was only about 1,200 meters, but now it has expanded to a full 1,300 meters away!
Secondly, the original height of the small white tree was only about 1.2 meters, but at this moment, it has quietly grown to 1.3 meters high!
These two significant changes undoubtedly declare to the world a fact: every time the milky white tree successfully kills and absorbs a pollutant, it will gain a steady stream of power, thereby achieving self-strengthening and growth.
Such a sight made Zhang Song both excited and shocked. He knew that the mysterious tree he saw in front of him might become the key to changing the world.
You know, at this moment, those terrifying pollutants from all directions seemed to be summoned by some mysterious power, and they all swarmed towards the location of the milky white tree.
They came in a steady stream, and the scene was simply horrifying.
In such a situation, if this small milky white tree is strong enough and can easily wipe out all the invading pollutants, then it will become more and more powerful.
After all, every successful battle will allow it to absorb more energy, thus continuously increasing its upper limit of abilities.
At the moment, the purifying light emitted by this milky white tree only covers a mere 1,300 meters, but who can predict how large an area it will eventually be able to cover as time goes by?
Maybe one day, even the eighth district where they are located will not be immune to the disaster, and it is not impossible to be completely devoured by it!
It would be fine if this small milky white tree had no ill intentions towards the survivors.
But if it doesn't spare even these poor survivors, once this milky white tree spreads to their area, it will undoubtedly be a devastating disaster for all of them!
After all, with their current strength, wanting to compete with such a powerful being is simply wishful thinking and overestimating their capabilities!
Through the information he has seen now, Zhang Song is analyzing the situation they may face in the future.
Fortunately, judging from the man standing next to the small milky-white tree, it seemed that the small milky-white tree would not attack the survivors.
Now that everything is unclear, Zhang Song can only think in the best direction.
……
In fact, Yang Bei noticed the sneaky drone that was filming secretly from the first moment.
There is no doubt that it must be controlled by other survivors, because those disgusting and terrifying pollutants do not have the ability to play with such high-tech gadgets.
However, Yang Bei didn't take this matter to heart at all.
What if these survivors find themselves?
Anyway, they pose no real threat to themselves.
As long as he can always maintain his overwhelming strength, there won't be any trouble coming.
Even if someone really dares to have bad ideas against him, in the end they can only bow their heads and admit defeat in front of his unrivaled strength!
All confidence and calmness come from his own unparalleled power.
At this moment, looking around, the pollutants on the entire earth were like a tide, rushing towards his direction.
Fortunately, the Chaos Saplings that had been successfully planted before are now fighting bravely, hunting down the swarming army of pollutants!
I think that when the Chaos Sapling was first planted, the effective range it could launch an attack was only one thousand meters in radius.
However, as the Chaos Sapling continues to grow, its attack radius has now expanded to an astonishing 1,300 meters.
Moreover, as the number of pollutants killed by the Chaos Sapling increases day by day, it itself becomes more powerful. Correspondingly, the attack range it can cover naturally becomes larger and larger.
By then, not to mention District 9, it will be possible to even cover the entire S city and even the entire earth.
Now it has just passed. In less than an hour, the Chaos Sapling has grown from one meter to one meter three.
If the Chaos Sapling is planted outside, it will grow much faster than when it is inside his body.
The Chaos Sapling's attack methods and attack range are more powerful than his methods.
Chaos saplings can directly cover a radius of 1,300 meters and carry out attacks without blind spots.
Moreover, it can continuously split the milky white tree roots. No matter how much pollutants come, they will all die under the roots of the Chaos Sapling.
Covering all aspects, Yang Bei does not have this ability.
According to the current situation, Yang Bei doesn't even have to do anything and just wait quietly for the Chaos Sapling to grow.
But when Yang Bei thought about the reminder given to him by the Chaos Sapling before, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
It will definitely not work if it continues like this.
He still had to find a way to collect more intelligence, such as finding out where there were powerful pollutants in the world.
It's just that it doesn't seem to be an easy task for him to handle these things alone.
Maybe he could find some survivors to help him deal with it and help him gather information.
When it comes to collecting information, one person's power cannot be compared with that of a huge organization.
Perhaps he could look for a strong survivor organization and use them to obtain information about more powerful pollutants on the earth.
While thinking about it, Yang Bei already had an idea. (End of chapter)
