Steel steam and flame

"I need to bring a surprise." For this reason, Cassia did not inform her of her itinerary, and at the same time specially prepared an entire suitcase with a total of forty imitation solid red mercury. The recovery of Sukarius has been fully managed secretly by the Imperial Council, but the red mercury is just a gift, a gift for friends who have not had any contact for a long time and are suddenly about to meet.

However, because of his own needs and at the same time to start a test to verify the controllability of uranium and gold absorption on the evolutionary route, Cassia took out eight of the gifts for his own use after a fierce ideological struggle.

"The amount of the gift does not affect its recovery. Compared with the imitation solid red mercury in the actual sense, the intention is more important." With this mood, Cassia took four more, leaving twenty-eight as a gift. A gift for Sucarius.

Sailing in the deep blue field, the speed has been adjusted to the slowest, but the journey still only takes a few days. After a short rest, Cassia lay flat on the steel floor of the room. While recalling various information about the Deep Blue Realm and thinking about the conversations with Pekinz in the past two days, she completely relaxed her body, breathing and simulating heartbeats. Disappeared, leaving only the eyes open naturally.

Ten seconds later, Cassia's mental perception dispersed; for a short time, the energy conversion structure on the chest lit up with a light blue fluorescent light, and bright red lines without any regularity floated on the skin, centered on the chest, and quickly It is spread all over the body, and it smells like a mess of bandages wrapped around the body.

He seemed to have lost consciousness, and his body was not under any control, swaying with the slight shaking of the airship. The red lines on the body are constantly flowing, similar to clear water. It looks static when viewed vaguely, but in fact it is flowing at high speed.

The number of lines increased. When the large lines covering his head moved closer to his eyes and finally surrounded them, his contracted pupils dilated and spread.

At the same time, the spiritual perception belonging to Cassia scattered around the airship disappeared, and almost all of it converged into this corpse-like body. On the other side, somewhere, Cassia suddenly felt that her vision was replaced by a bright red, and a "buzzing" spinning sound directly affected her spirit. There should have been a huge sense of oppression, but it was blocked by the long distance.

Ahead, a huge red star was moving forward rapidly, dragging a tail like a tail, which was composed of countless dark gray gravels and light spots like sparks.

"The sixth red star, 'Sun'." Cassia muttered to herself, then her spirit sank and she began to observe the red star patterns.

In the Flame Alliance, more than ten days have passed since the lights were faked.

The area around the huge lake formed by the explosion was affected by the lights that appeared that night. There was no mandatory requirement, and residents began to endure the erosion of the heavy rain environment and voluntarily left the area. A large number of surgeons moved towards this area, and a wave of enthusiasm quickly arose, but it did not last long. It took several days to reach the climax, and then completely subsided under the indiscriminate cleanup by the Nature Association's army.

In the dim afternoon, beside the lake formed by lights, not only the heavy rain disappeared here, but also the rain clouds in the sky were also affected. Although they existed and blocked the sky, you could also notice the huge changes in the density and thickness of the clouds. It is developing in the direction of disappearing.

There should have been a lake surrounded by glass-like fragments, but now there were no ruins or scorched earth. Large trees covered with gray-white leaves are growing rapidly with astonishing vitality, and a small number of them have reached a height of thirty or forty meters. They form a thick ring of forest surrounding the lake.

In this rapidly forming forest, a large number of troops and members of various organizations of the Nature Association are evacuating in an orderly manner, preparing to build temporary rest and outdoor camps further away from the lake to avoid the increasingly dense pollution inside the forest.

A team of seven people and the evacuees walked in opposite directions. They all had signs on their chests that allowed free movement in the forest. They moved forward at a uniform speed. Camps that had been left behind gradually appeared in sight. among.

The tents set up in the camp were not only covered with fallen gray leaves, but also a layer of sticky moldy substance that covered the entire camp. Where some mold material gathers, the mold material itself seems to have become soil. Occasionally, a gray-white flower can be seen blooming. The flower core wrapped in petals is flexible and slender, and the bright red color has the texture of fresh organ tissue.

"Their adaptability is too strong. In the past, they could only survive by polluting other living organisms in a symbiotic or parasitic manner. But now..., if not treated, sooner or later these flowers will bear fruit and grow again after falling to the ground. The plants that come out can become pure polluting plants." In the team, a young-looking female member took out a large glass bottle from her backpack and put a gray-white flower as a sample into it.

"Laetitia and the Nature Association prohibit us from processing it in order to cultivate these seeds for collection. Compared with pollution nodes, they can be said to be mobile micro pollution sources. Compared with the pollution spread by pollution species, those seeds The level is higher. After all, after the pollution of the polluted dragons leaves the extreme realm environment, although they will not die, they will generally lose the ability to expand. These seeds are...,,"

"Another bad news?"

"Maybe it's good news." In front of the team, a middle-aged man who was walking and observing in the abandoned camp said, "The high priest said that the polluted forest environment will appear sooner or later. Originally, it would be later, it should be several Months later, when the red star approaches and the influence strengthens for the second time, there will be such an environment for them to grow. The light provides the environment in advance, and also establishes a confinement circle, allowing them to appear in advance, but they cannot expand elsewhere without restriction. This just gives us more time for research."

"Of course, it's more bad news." The man smiled and looked at the six team members behind him. "I'm sure I'll feel uncomfortable when I think about having to face such a gray-white environment from time to time." As he said that, the man stepped on the ground. , the soil is sticky, and a layer of moldy material has already taken root on it.

During the conversation that eased the atmosphere, the seven people finished observing the abandoned camp and continued moving forward. As the dim light grew dimmer and the trees grew taller and denser, a brighter shadow appeared faintly in front of them. They quickened their pace and soon escaped from the dense forest, and a wide turbid lake immediately came into view.

On the lake surface, moldy substances are like pieces of aquatic floating organisms, falling in patches. If enough time is given, the entire lake surface will be covered. Brown tree roots also grew out of the ground, intertwined and tangled, and some were already exposed above the lake.

"As expected, the polluted nodes that were bombed will indeed recover themselves. The good news is that only the roots of the tree are restored, and the utility of the contaminated nodes has indeed disappeared."

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the six people behind him, and pulled out his tactical knife. "Let's work. The chances of coming here will become less and less in the future. This time, we need to bring enough samples back."
