Interstellar: Start as a cleaner

ps: I will continue to update three times tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

"With the harsh environment of the tiankeng below, let alone zombies, any moving object will be strangled by these plants."

"No wonder the machine given to me is called a jungle patrol robot."

"But I should be equipped with a flamethrower, not this kind?"

"Forget it, I'm here, and I don't know the way back anyway."

"The game officials must have prepared this for me for a reason, and they also want me to complete the task." Yang Bo comforted himself again.

The diameter of this tiankeng is about 500 meters. The deepest part is invisible, and the visible edge is about 100 meters.

The whole tiankeng is shrouded in clouds and mist, and this tiankeng is also located on a mountain.

It seems that the entire mountain has collapsed.

The robot has two mechanical arms, which cooperate with two legs to go down the stone wall of the tiankeng bit by bit.

This does not require Yang Bo to operate, because the robot can go down by itself.

Yang Bo paid close attention to the bottom of the tiankeng. The robot gradually approached the bottom of the tiankeng, and it could be seen that the tiankeng was lush and green.

The robot showed that the temperature below was higher than that above, and the humidity was also relatively high.

"Could it be that the nuclear facility has been boiling water below?"

"The resulting heat has caused this sinkhole to be like a greenhouse."

"I remember that some chemicals can make the mist crystallize quickly?"

"Could it be that there is something in this sinkhole that the military wants? But that's right. These plants that can survive in such a high-concentration nuclear radiation environment must have research value."

"Then why doesn't the military come to explore, and what unknown dangers are there?"

"Since the military has not completed the exploration, I'm afraid the dangers inside are not small."

"After all, it's such an open environment." Yang Bo muttered to himself.

Approaching the bottom of the sinkhole, you can see that the plant vines below are densely covered, covering the view tightly.

At the same time, it is also found that the bottom of the sinkhole should be uneven, and there may be deeper holes.

These vines now look harmless. If it weren't for the stones thrown just now, Yang Bo would never believe that these vines react so quickly.

Adjust the machine gun to single-shot mode and attack these vines directly.

In the robot cockpit, Yang Bo could not hear the sound of the machine gun outside, but the plants felt the sound of the machine gun.

Countless vines emerged from the jungle and rushed towards the place where the sound came from.

These vines seemed to be slow and swaying left and right, and it seemed that they were not sure about the location of the target.

Such slow movements made Yang Bo relieved, and the machine gun kept firing, breaking these vines.

The broken vines fell under the tree.

Yang Bo broke the branch that blocked the line of sight again.

"I...!" After using more than 2,000 bullets, Yang Bo finally opened a gap in the line of sight covered by vines and branches.

Mainly because the surrounding vines kept surging over.

The bottom of the sinkhole was uneven, and you could see many gaps between the black stones. You could see that some of the gaps were emitting mist.

Some gaps were relatively small, only a few centimeters, and some were about one meter wide.

The length was also different, some were dozens of meters long, and some were only a short distance.

"I understand. The reason why these branches and vines cover so tightly is equivalent to a cooling effect." Yang Bo found through the robot radar that the ground temperature is relatively high. If there were no vines and branches acting as condensers to cool the mist and drip water, the high-temperature ground would not be so wet.

"No wonder the military dare not use big moves here. I don't know how big the reactor below is."

"I don't know how many years have passed in this world. Logically, this kind of reactor will disappear after a certain period of time when the fuel is exhausted, right?"

Then Yang Bo carefully observed these trees and plants. It seems that these trees have nothing to do with these plants. They are two species, but Yang Bo always feels that there should be a relationship between the two.

The trees here don't look very thick, but they are lush and the leaves are very large.

Those vines are attached to these trees to fill the gaps between the leaves.

These vines are covered with thorns, and most of them have no branches and leaves, but clusters of leaves burst out in the places where the leaves are empty.

"Something's wrong!" After careful observation, Yang Bo finally found something wrong.

There is an old saying on Earth that vines can kill trees.

The vines cling to the tree, absorbing nutrients from the trunk on the one hand, and growing along the trunk on the other hand, growing to the top of the tree to snatch the sunlight from the tree.

The vines here only fill the gaps between the leaves and do not snatch the space of the leaves.

Look more carefully, these roots and vines grow on the stone, the roots almost cover the entire stone, and the water condensed from the steam left on the leaves and vines falls on the roots and is absorbed by the roots.

The roots are full of dense fibrous roots and aerial roots.

In less than half an hour, the space just cleared by the machine gun was slowly covered by new vines.

These vines grow very fast, and the speed can be seen by the naked eye.

Everyone in the backstage of the Doomsday game did not feel strange to see this scene, because everyone had already seen it from the information.

"What dangers are there in this place? The military has sent robots several times, but the exploration robots have lost contact inexplicably." Someone asked.

The military data shows that robots, unmanned armors, and even various drones have been sent, but they have lost contact inexplicably in the tiankeng.

So everyone is watching Yang Bo explore the tiankeng at any time.

The robot controlled by Yang Bo is still on the stone wall, because since the military said it is extremely dangerous, it is 100% extremely dangerous, and it is not his turn if it is not dangerous.

"The robot can be used for another hour and a half." Today, the robot can be used for two hours.

"What kind of danger is it?" Yang Bo decided to try with a missile.

Directly control the robot to launch a missile, and the target of this missile is a big tree.

Yang Bo chose the electromagnetic missile, and the missile flew out of the backpack, with a trail of white smoke, and hit the roots of a tree dozens of meters away.

Energy absorption +4!

A piece of information flashed in Yang Bo's mind.

"Huh?" This is a mutant plant, and the level is not low, equivalent to a D-level superpower.

"Yes, even if the military destroys these trees, they don't know that these trees are mutant plants."

"Imagine that the various robots and drones of the military have no idea that these seemingly harmless plants are actually D-level mutant plants."

And now the tree does not look any different from the outside, because electromagnetic missiles do not have physical killing capabilities.

"These vines that look very powerful are probably the weapons used by these trees for self-defense."

"But this is not enough for the military to mark this place as extremely dangerous."

Many thoughts flashed through his mind, and Yang Bo decided to release another missile.

This time it was a pure explosive missile that hit the root of a tree again.

This time Yang Bo mainly wanted to use the sound of the explosion to exert passive detection capabilities.

But soon Yang Bo found something wrong. The tree that he had just killed with an electromagnetic missile did not look any different in appearance, but the mist sprayed from the two rock cracks around it seemed to have increased.

"Could it be!" A very terrifying idea formed in Yang Bo's mind.

These mutant plants can absorb the energy released by the nuclear reactor below.

If someone invades the tiankeng, can these mutant plants not absorb this energy, and release energy through these gaps leading to the ground in specific areas.

"D-level mutant plants should have their own primary consciousness."

"That is to say, as long as someone sets foot in this tiankeng, it is equivalent to invading the territory of these plants. This tiankeng itself is a huge trap."

"The roots of these plants may all go deep into the ground, forming a closed structure to absorb the energy released by the reactor to maintain themselves or allow themselves to evolve."

"Maybe these plants can also release energy in the opposite direction."

There is a guess in my heart, but it is still unknown what it looks like, but Yang Bo can't set foot in the tiankeng.

"What should I do?" Yang Bo didn't have a good idea for a while.

"Let's brush up the skills first." Yang Bo decided to brush up the skills first.

So the gun in his hand fired, but soon found that although the gun could break the trees, no skills appeared.

So the staff behind the Doomsday Dungeon game saw the strange scene of the game players.

The game player was seen operating a machine gun and firing continuously at the tree trunks, branches and roots, causing the branches, trunks and roots to fly.

"This...!" Everyone was a little surprised. Was this player crazy?

Then he was seen firing all the missiles carried by the robot.

"Will this guy not give up?" The colonel, the head of the game department, was a little puzzled.

And this did not count that this player also threw all the bombs carried by his character through a throwing device of the robot.

Soon a large area was cleared in the middle.

Yang Bo did this to cover up his use of electromagnetic bombs to brush skills.

"Alas, I should have carried electromagnetic missiles and electromagnetic bombs earlier." Because Yang Bo already knew where the energy cores of these trees were, although bullets could be used to solve the problem, as long as the bullets hit, they would be discovered by the game background.

"I only brushed 27 energy absorption skills." Yang Bo looked at this large forest and thought it was a pity.

The energy core of these trees is at the roots, where the roots of these trees intersect with the vines. It looks like a simple vine wrapped around the roots. In fact, this is the energy core of this mutant plant, which controls both the trees and the vines.

So when Yang Bo controlled the machine gun to hit this place, a small energy crystal flew in the wood chips.

"Puff!" The major in the game background was drinking iced coffee to relieve the anxiety in his heart, but he didn't expect such a scene to appear suddenly.

The next second, the game character controller robot jumped to the location of the crystal in three or two steps, picked up the crystal, and then ran back quickly.

"Boss, we have made a great contribution!" Finally, other staff members in the game background screamed.

Then everyone saw Yang Bo controlling the robot to continue shooting on the stone wall. As the bullets hit the intersection of the roots and vines, green energy crystals flew out of the wood chips.

"Quick, quick, remind him to complete the task." The colonel also reacted. This is not a tiankeng, but a treasure pot. Judging from the size of the crystal, all the plants in this area are mutant plants.

The game background just switched the virtual screen to Yang Bo, and the next second the game background saw a horrifying scene.

The gaps in the middle of the tiankeng instantly sprayed out countless mists with brilliant light.

Then the next second the robot and the bionic man lost contact.

"Tmd, I understand, this tiankeng is the territory of these mutant plants. These mutant plants control the energy of the nuclear reactor below and absorb their energy. As long as there are invaders entering the tiankeng, these mutant plants will release this energy." The colonel understood instantly.
