I became the Martial Saint of the Wasteland

Chapter 175 Chapter 0170: Troublesome Parasite [Please subscribe]

The gushing flames roared like a dragon.

They rushed past him.

Under the orange firelight, the black scales on his body became even more ferocious.

The branches sprayed out from the mouths of the remaining two mutated war slaves were like glue sticks that melted when heated.

Curling, burning, and finally turning into ashes in the flickering light.

The six clustered flames were roughly divided into two streams. They passed through the vines and burned onto the mutated war slave without any stagnation.

The sticky fuel adhered to the body and instantly turned the two mutants into torches.

In the strong flames, only the swaying figure could be vaguely seen.

Using optimized mixed fuel, the instantaneous temperature of the injector's cluster flame can reach over 1500°C, and the temperature after continuous combustion can even exceed 2000°C.

The vines and branches were not extremely flammable due to their rich sap.

But under the continuous jet of high-temperature flames, their only fate is to be wiped out in ashes.

The exhaust system became an accomplice to the flames, and Rosen watched the two mutants twist and fall.

He made a standby gesture, signaling the six fire-breathing war slaves to be on alert and on standby.

Rosen himself walked with heavy steps in front of the mutant who had been shot through the chest and abdomen by the particle cannon.

The vitality of this strange plant is terrifyingly tenacious.

Such a severe penetrating injury could not completely kill it.

It's just that due to the broken spine, it will be unable to continue moving for a while.

When Rosen came to it, he could see countless tiny vines intertwining in the wounds on its chest and abdomen, like long, living worms.

These vines try to repair the wound.

In addition, the mutant's mouth and nose also have tentacle-like branches dancing.

There are also purple flower buds at the ends of the branches.

But Rosen also discovered a situation.

That is, when the branches in the mutant's body grow wantonly, the superficial flesh and blood will become shriveled, and the exposed bones will tend to shrink.

This means that they require nutrients to grow.

As far as plants are concerned, there are too many nutrients that the human body can absorb.

Muscle and fat can provide organic matter, and bones are good phosphorus and calcium fertilizers.

Blood can replenish nitrogen, and internal organs can provide comprehensive trace elements and minerals.

What's more, the war slaves parasitized by those strange plants have been strengthened by E-type genetic medicine.

Simply the best breeding ground for growth.

Rosen observed the situation of the mutants, and he turned on the video recording device on his helmet as early as he entered the shelter.

Everything here is information of great record value.

"Use flammable fuel to construct three arc-shaped fire lines around the shelter exit."

"The remaining six flamethrowers and cryogunners will help guard the exit."

"At the same time, conduct a second inspection of the square to confirm that all remaining branches and vines of mutant plants have been cleared away."

He issued new orders into the communicator.

Be careful and try not to let these ghosts reach the surface as much as possible.

It is highly parasitic, and each branch seems to be an independent parasite carrier.

But branches that are too short cannot be used. They must be at least half a meter long.

Those shorter branches will be visibly dead and withered.

But even so, the potential harm of this mutated plant cannot be underestimated.

If they were allowed to run outside, those muddleheaded corpses would become a breeding ground for mutated plants to multiply.

As a mutated species that has no clear natural enemies yet, it may make the already fragile wasteland ecology even more terrifying.

Rosen didn't want to bet on whether its growth in the outside world would be curbed.

The best way to eliminate risks is to block them all at the source.

Just guard the exit.

As for being in the shelter, you don’t have to worry too much.

Both the ventilation system and major pipelines have been treated with three precautions.

Unless the mutated plants can pass through heavy blockades and multiple molecular-level filters, there is no need to worry.

The order was given quickly.

The chest of the mutant in front of him was completely filled with messy vines.

The flowers at the front of the branches protruding from the nose and mouth are also in full bloom.

It was a purple flower the size of a tea cup.

The level of unknown toxins in the air suddenly increased.

The Forsaken Power Armor's electromagnetic rapid-fire cannon was aimed at its head.

Rosen continued to observe calmly.

Know thyself, ever-victorious.

Now that he already knows that there has been a change in Vault B074.

So there is no need to rush in at this time, let's first understand the characteristics of the mutated plants.

Soon, the ovaries of those flowers swelled visibly to the naked eye, and the petals withered directly.

All changes occur within seconds.

Each purple flower turned into a fruit the size of an apricot.

In the super-sensory state, everything slows down, giving Rosen more time to react.

He backed away without saying a word.

When the fruit completely grows and takes shape, it suddenly explodes.

Hundreds of tiny spikes flew everywhere, like fragments of a grenade.

A surging air shield immediately surged in front of Rosen, and all the spikes were bounced away.

Some of the spikes actually penetrated into the concrete wall.

Although it doesn't penetrate deeply, it is enough to threaten unarmored personnel.

The reason why Rosen was prepared was because he was in the communication channel before.

Those suffering war slaves once mentioned the words "pay attention to the fruits".

Now it seems that this mutated plant does have a lot of tricks up its sleeve.

And the mutant who was being repaired by the branches also regained his mobility.

He was trembling and trying to stand up again.

But in the next second, its head was shattered by a 0.85KG mass bullet.

The head that exploded suddenly was also filled with countless vine fragments.

There is no body fluid or brain tissue left.

As he analyzed, the parasitism of this mutated plant was not only rapid but also thorough.

Its damage to the body is completely irreversible.

After the head was blown to pieces, the remaining body still wanted to get up tenaciously.

The high-energy laser transmitter on the left shoulder of the renounced power armor burst out with dazzling light.

Rosen adjusts it to a high-power mode with continuous output.

Directly use it to ignite the remains of the mutant.

"It's really hard to kill."

Rosen stepped back slightly and raised his hand to make a gesture.

Immediately, a flamethrower stepped forward to mop up the enemy.

In fact, it is easy to deal with plants.

Although mutated plants are tougher than ordinary plants, they still cannot withstand gunfire.

Normal kinetic weapons can tear them apart easily.

The trouble is when living bodies are attacked and parasitized.

Every living thing has the potential to become a difficult parasite.

So this time when we entered the shelter, the number of people lost its meaning.

In other words, it has become a weakness.

Unless the war slaves who go in have a set of power armor.

Or maybe the exoskeletons they are equipped with can be replaced by the full-coverage style worn by the guy from "Noah" whom they saw outside the Liqu workshop.

As long as it is tight, it is the best defense.

Therefore, going deep into it this time, soldiers should be more valuable than more.

At this time, the [assembly area] was in a mess.

There were burnt ashes everywhere, as well as trampled and crushed branches.

Rosen gently wiped the ground with his armored feet, revealing the original color of the concrete.

Those mutated plants did not emerge from the ground.

Following the path of the vines, he found that the partition door in area [0741] was damaged.

The mechanism for locking rivets bulges from the inside out.

Looking at the alloy cover, which was only two fingers thick, Rosen was silent.

After inspection, he found that the partition doors of the three partitions [0741], [0743], and [0744] were damaged from the inside out.

All damage is similar.

It's like a plant growing and expanding from within, bursting the rivet.

The power of plants cannot be underestimated.

For example, bamboo shoots buried deep in the ground can lift heavy stone slabs when they grow into bamboo.

Now the question before Rosen became a multiple-choice question.

He stood there and analyzed it briefly, and he had some guesses in his mind.

He looked solemnly at the only partition door [0742] that was not damaged.

In this case, the more normal it is, the more wrong it is.

[0742] Within the partition, there is a high probability that it will become the home of the culprit.

However, according to the data, the artificial ovary equipment required by Golden Ears are all in the [0741] partition.

And the four zones are not completely isolated.

Each zone has a master control room and a supervisor.

As long as you can obtain two supervisor's authority keys at the same time, you will have the authority to mobilize most facilities in the shelter.

The thoughts in his mind changed, and Rosen quickly thought of the most appropriate plan.

Don't care what's in that partition, just hit it and that's it.

Retreating is something you can't think about until you can't defeat it.

He didn't just bring power armor this time.

There are still many means at hand.

To be on the safe side, it is not advisable to bring too many people in, but bring in fewer people to avoid becoming parasites.

If there were heavy casualties, he could also take out the Xiaowei No. 1 that had been prepared in advance from the [Consciousness Space].

Plus the disposable holy shield device given by Commissioner No. 5.

These can be used as means to save lives and make a comeback.

Most importantly, his curiosity was aroused.

That terrifying mutated plant couldn't have appeared out of thin air.

If you delve deeper into the reasons, you should be able to discover some remarkable things.

In addition, there should be clues or equipment left here about pre-war biotechnology.

Rosen has always wanted to use biotechnology to perfect the martial arts of the Eight Desolate Realms.

After knowing what he was doing, he named more than a dozen war slaves, including four flamethrowers, two cryo-lancers, and supporters carrying recoilless rifles and laser cannons.

This configuration is enough.

As long as you are careful and stick to the terrain, you can ward off possible crises.

If too many people enter, it will be meaningless except for making the team more bloated.

After confirming, Rosen waved his hand and used brute force to tear off the partition door whose locking and riveting mechanism had been damaged.

Then he filed in with more than a dozen war slaves.

"The current time is 12:49:07."

"It's been almost 50 minutes and there's still no movement there."

"It seems that Shelter B074 is indeed not simple."

It was Commissioner No. 5 who spoke.

At this time, she was located near the connection point more than 20 kilometers away from Shelter B074.

This is the rooftop of a collapsed building.

Her power armor arm has a data cable connected to a communicator the size of a shoe box.

After a slight delay, Tie Xin's voice came from the communicator.

"It can't be that fast."

"According to that top-secret plan, the changes in Vault B-074 began fifteen years ago."

"If I hadn't reached an agreement with that careerist, B-074 wouldn't have been our turn."

The sound was mixed with some radio noise.

Remote communication in the wasteland is not impossible, but very difficult.

There are too many interference factors, resulting in a very poor overall communication environment.

This is especially true for this kind of temporary communication in the wild.

It is not as good as the directional large-scale base stations built in advance.

No. 5 listened to his boss's words and replied with a slightly worried expression.

"I'm worried he won't be able to handle it."

"What should I do if I really run away?"

"Those 220 slave soldiers from Luzhou cost us a lot of money."

"And that batch of equipment."

But he saw calm laughter coming from the communicator.

"Hehehe."

"Don't worry."

"That careerist has stationed combat droids outside the shelter."

"To clean up after the incident and prevent the situation from getting out of control."

"Zhang Zhenyu's job is not just to help us cover up."

"After all, golden ears are not the only ones who need artificial ovaries."

"The experimental project code-named 'Plant IV' in Shelter B 074 is only part of the entire experiment, and the hazard rating is limited."

"With him and the more than two hundred slave soldiers, we can definitely solve the problem."

"To be honest, if it weren't for the fear of exposure."

"Even if we are left alone, that careerist can solve all the problems by just sending one or two hundred combat robots or two power armor teams."

Tie Xin seemed to have some objections to the careerist she described.

Even cooperation is accompanied by some reluctance.

Finally, she added.

"And it's also a test."

"The Void Beast we created is also a taboo item."

"If it is the mysterious organization that supports Zhang Zhenyu, it is indeed good at biology and genetics."

"Then we can take this opportunity to try to bring the other party into the fold."

"We have expended a lot of resources on this research program over the years."

"Okay, keep paying attention."

"The call is paused to prevent it from being hijacked by those boring radio operators."

Having said that, Tie Xin hung up without waiting for Commissioner No. 5 to answer.

Commissioner No. 5 on the other side silently pulled out the data cable from the machine body.

Then he shook his head in confusion.

"These things that go around and around are really the most annoying thing."

"Forget it, I just need to follow the boss's instructions."

"I hope that guy doesn't die. I haven't tasted it yet!"

After muttering to himself, Commissioner No. 5 put the communicator into the storage box on the back shoulder of the power armor, then started the scroll engine group and jumped up.

The blue arc light flickered and soon disappeared.
