Chapter 2597 Heavy Rain
Bing Zhixie, Alice, and Ilyich have been looking for the lost Hurington and others. It stands to reason that Hurington and others must also be looking for them. The strange thing is that they found them. For two days, no one was seen, not even a trace was found.
Ilyich said: "Your Highness, as long as there is no problem with Hols himself, with the strength of him and Hullington, they will be able to protect themselves. Miss Ruola and Eva will be fine too."
Alice nodded: "Yeke is in Zola You will be safe next to my sister. "Hey, it seems like the weather has changed."
The originally bright weather has become dim, the kind that can be seen by the naked eye, and the scenery in the distance has become blurry. Yes, it was the pouring rain that blurred the vision.
"It's raining so hard~!" Alice sighed, the rain seemed to be pouring down.
Ilyich said: "That direction on the map is the seaside, it must be the heavy rain caused by the sea breeze climate. Well, there is a peculiar smell in the air, a fishy smell, and there are other smells mixed in."
“Let’s go over there.” Bing Zhixie pointed in the direction of the rainstorm.
“Do you want to go there?” Alice saw that the heavy rain was coming in this direction, and the rain would fall here without having to go there. The Gupra at her feet was happy to go into the heavy rain of the sea breeze, which was a long-lost scent.
The heavy rain soon wetted his body. Gulap, who was covered in dust and dirt, was washed away by the rain, and the metal shell was soaked smooth and bright. Although it was cold and cold after metalization, it did not show its emotions easily. At this time, it could not help but roar to the sky. Cang Gu's voice resounded in this quiet and noisy world.
"There is really a muddy smell in the air, as well as the smell of decaying plants. It's so strong." Alice sniffed and sniffed in the rain. The smell couldn't be more obvious. Even if there was rain, it couldn't cover it up: "No Yes, the current height of Gulap should be nearly two thousand meters, that is Even if it is earthy and woody, you can only smell it when it is close to the ground. It seems that the rain carries this smell."
The three of them soon saw it in the forest under heavy rain. Rivers with floods are connecting together to form patches of marshy lakes.
“What’s there in the river over there?” Ilyich pointed to the big river below. This was a large pool of water formed by the convergence of many rivers. The surrounding tidal flats, including the water, contained a lot of certain things. The creature is moving. Alice directed Gulap to lower his altitude. When he was close to an altitude of two to three hundred meters, he could clearly see what was moving in the mud.
It was a massive number of frog-like creatures, big or small, cyan or brown, and the number was so huge that it was disgusting and scary.
“This heavy rain has soaked them all out of the soil.” Alice said, pointing to various types of toad frogs below. Among them, one kind of giant toads as big as a hill is particularly numerous, accounting for 10% of the total. More than half of all frog species: "Those are the ancient mud pot toads and ghost frogs. These two are very ancient creatures. They have been introduced in the local atlas, but so many... are too scary."
The sound of frogs, toads and the rushing river mixed together, making this forest country full of evil dangers. In order to avoid being attacked unprovoked, Bing Zhixie asked Alice to let Gulap fly higher. Apart from these frogs, there were almost no other creatures in this area.
Flying close to Zebo for a long time, the heavy rain sometimes weakened, and sometimes suddenly intensified. Overall, the rain was still very heavy, and as we walked towards the direction of the rain, the giant toads in the forest became more and more numerous. The more. And there are some new situations among these giant toads. There are conflicts between giant frogs and giant toads of the same type or different types. Sometimes mud explodes, sometimes venom is sprayed from the venom glands on the body, and streams of mud spurt out indiscriminately. Although it is not All the toads and frogs were fighting, but the mud and slurry below were making waves, and it was hard not to notice. Occasionally, birds flying in the air were attacked and fell into the concrete puddles. They quickly ate the giant frog's meal. He noticed a group of forest deer running away in panic on Zhuzhou Island among the marshes. This can be seen from an aerial perspective. , they have been completely surrounded by the turbulent floods and toad frogs, and have no way to escape.
Seeing those forest deer being sucked into the mud flow and being swallowed one by one by the toad frogs, it was then discovered that there was a deer herder among the swallowed forest deer. . Alice hurriedly asked Gulap to fly down and try to save him, but as soon as the Water Demon lowered his height, attacks from the ancient mud pot toads and ghost frogs came one after another. Although Gulap was strong, he did not dare to ignore the attacks of thousands of giant toads. The rolling giant tongues, the attacks of the toad frogs, and the strange petrification power forced Gulap to be unable to stay close to him. But in just a blink of an eye, the deer herders disappeared in the heavy rain. It was unknown whether they were swept away by the flash flood or swallowed by the giant toad.
All this happened very briefly. Due to the lack of sight, even Bing Zhixie had no time to save him. He said helplessly: "I hope that the deer herder is not Gu Lie's younger brother."
Because she had just tried to lower her height, Ilyich saw some new things in the heavy rain. She pointed at a giant frog under a ten thousand year old tree and said: "Look at that one, the 'poison glands' in the mangy bag on its body are all floating around." "Come out?"
It's outrageous that the poison glands are floating out, not to mention that in such a heavy rain, the blue-white threads are still floating towards the sky, shaped like a network, much like the roots and blood vessels of plants network.
Bing Zhixie's eyesight was better, and he could see those flowing lines clearly: "That's not a poison gland, it's a parasite." The parasite was glowing cyan, and because it loved rain, it would swim during heavy rains. Drinking rain towards the sky.
Alice thought that this situation was mentioned in the illustrated book. This parasite is a type of plant that does not take root, and is called a network of poisonous plants. They only parasitize in the bodies of frogs, especially the ancient mud pot toads and ghost frogs. After they are introduced, they will grow along the nerves in the toad frog's body, and eventually cover the toad frog's brain and lie dormant. They will not revive until heavy rains and flash floods, seizing the host's brain nerves and controlling their behavior. At this time, part of them will extend from the glands of the toad frog, forming a spectacle in front of you.
At this time, Bing Zhixie saw the deer herder again on the fast river. Alice was surprised by the miracle in front of her: "Gulap, go down and save him."
The water demon Gulap spread his flexible metal wings and descended in the torrential rain. Below him were not only swarms of giant toads, but also those towering ancient tree spirits moving in the flood. As soon as Gulap got down, he was sensed by the tree spirit tree demon and attacked him. Among the branches and leaves, those forest charms, forest demons, and cave banshees flew out from the branches of the trees, resisting with natural magic!
Not to mention the cave banshee, Lin Mei, who resembles a human male, has always been a peaceful elf, but now she actually showed great hostility.
The movement of tree spirits and tree demons constantly blocks their way to save people. Although the magic of forest demons and forest charms is not worth mentioning, it is still annoying to harass them one after another. Bingzhixie held the ice in his hand and wanted to cleanse away the annoying things around him. Alice grabbed his arm in time and dissuaded him: "These elves are kind, don't hurt them."
