Players Please Get In the Car

The place where they got off the car was in the dense forest. The overly dense vegetation and fungi everywhere occupied most of the field of view. From any angle, it was impossible to tell whether there was any activity here, but there were traces left by some ferocious beasts.

Looking from the ground to the sky, there are many trees with a height of more than 100 meters. In addition to the lush branches and leaves and hanging vines, there are also some floating things like flying insect eggs floating in the air. It can be seen that it should be Some kind of fungus, but it's hard to say which one.

Just for a while, when Xu Huo lowered his head again, he found that there was a green layer on his protective clothing. At first glance, it looked like a patch of burrs, but if you looked closely, you would find that those "burrs" were alive, like It wriggled like a bug, but only one end was connected to the clothes.

"This is a seed fungus, don't worry about it," Chi Xian next to him reminded, and at the same time fanned away the green burrs on his mask, "Just clean it up after a while, otherwise it will affect your vision if it grows too much."

The other seven people had already left, and the woods were quiet, Xu Huo asked Chi Xian, "What do you think?"

"My purpose is to find fungi, of course I want to go to the place with the most abundant fungi." Chi Xian took out his own tool, a transparent glass box with a jellyfish-like thing floating inside, "This is a kind of edible fungus Biology can detect the concentration of surviving fungi, and I just follow it."

As he spoke, he pointed the glass box forward, and the floating jellyfish moved gently inside.

"Shall we go together?" He invited Xu Huo, "Anyway, I don't think there will be any dungeons in this place, why don't you give me a hand, and we will share half of the good things we find."

Xu Huo didn't refuse, and said as he walked in the direction where the jellyfish were flying: "What good things can there be here? They're all fungi, and half of them are poisonous."

"You're an outsider," Chi Xian said, "We don't use poisons every day, but there are people in many districts who specialize in collecting these things. The price is not low, and the more outlandish things are, the more valuable they are."

"Didn't it mean that these fungi are difficult to reproduce in other areas?" Xu Huo pushed aside the leaves in front of him.

"Poison, you don't have to take a lot of it. Some people just want a poison that has no solution. One is enough." Chi Xian wiped the mask again, "Like a specially evolved fungus It is very troublesome, because they can reproduce in the human body, and it is difficult to eradicate them at one time."

"Many famous assassinations have mutated bacteria."

"In this way, the highly toxic mutated bacteria are almost unsolvable." Xu Huo followed his words.

"Try your luck." Chi Xian stopped for a moment, confirmed the direction, and continued: "But as long as it is not in an environment like District 013, even if someone brings the mutant bacteria outside, it is not difficult to deal with it. It is nothing more than Just sacrifice a few people and cut off the source of infection."

Faced with hundreds of thousands of fungi, it is impossible for someone to make corresponding medicines according to their characteristics. The most economical way is to keep them in the original place and prevent them from spreading to other areas.

"Everything grows and restrains each other, maybe you can find usable bacteria or other species around the highly toxic bacteria." Xu Huo said.

"Many people have tried the method you mentioned," Chi Xian stopped in front of a tree covered with yellow downy hairs, stretched out his hand and broke off a branch from the side, waved the fungus that the branch shook out, and A small hole was poked in the trunk, "Look what's inside."

"Another kind of fungus." Xu Huo glanced at it. The bark of this tree had been completely corroded, and there was a layer of blue silt under the yellow hairs.

"Yellow is poisonous, and blue is not poisonous. It is reasonable to say that the two things can coexist. The cyanobacteria must be able to restrain the cyanobacteria, but this kind of cyanobacteria will block the airway and esophagus after the human body grows. Before they can completely cover the yellow Bacteria, people will die." Chi Xian looked back at him, "The premise of using fungi to cure the poison of fungi is that people can bear this kind of fungus, because many mutant bacteria can multiply in the human body. No amount of antidote extracted from humans is enough."

"Even if the right antidote works, no one knows where the tipping point will be."

"As far as I know, there is no detoxifying bacteria in the game that can multiply in the human body without causing harm to humans."

"People in Area 013 may evolve the ability to live in symbiosis with fungi, but the sequelae are obvious. Neither ordinary people nor players live long."

"How long is the lifespan of an evolutionary who becomes a player? If there is no accident, he can live for more than a hundred years."

There is no discrepancy between what Chi Xian said and the information Xu Huo consulted, but Xu Huo’s news channels are in E-level and D-level wormhole sites. He is not sure if there are any fungi like king fungi in B-level or A-level wormhole sites. It exists, and even if it exists, it is expected that it will not be made public.

"Buying and selling fungi...the risk is not directly proportional to the reward." Xu Huo came to such a conclusion.

Chi Xian smiled, "It's all about hobbies. It can't be turned into a player and does nothing but upgrade. It's good to relieve stress."

Xu Huo agrees.

After walking for about three minutes, the two found a body.

It's a person, and it's been a little long since his death. His body is already covered with various fungi, and he can't even see his face clearly.

Xu Huo raised a dagger to cut open the chest of the corpse. The fungus on the body surface had just penetrated the skin and had not penetrated into the internal organs completely. However, the internal organs of the corpse itself were parasitized by fungi. After death, these fungi also gradually died.

After the dusty fungus dispersed, he said, "This should be a local."

"It's not a long time to die," Chi Xian looked around, "Are there still ordinary people living in this kind of place?"

The two also climbed up to observe the situation. The range they can see is not far away, but at least the range of vision is the same humid rainforest. There is no place to live. It is hard to imagine that there are ordinary people who only take simple protection to go in and out. .

"Speed ​​up." Xu Huo stood up and said.

Then the two moved with props along the direction where the jellyfish was flying. After driving for half an hour, they found a small village built along the water in the forest.

It's an understatement to say that the village is just six scattered wooden houses that have not been inhabited for a long time.

Surprisingly, the seven people who left just now were also here, and they also captured a poisonous man covered in various fungi.

The person is locked up by props, separated by a barrier, and scar glasses are asking questions.

"Where are the others? It will be a pleasure to tell you."

The poisonous man kneeling on the ground pointed to his tongue-free mouth, waved his hands and shook his head to express that he could not speak.

Scar glasses slapped him across the barrier, "There is no tongue but hands, fingers!"
