The wind stopped.
The forest returned to calm.
Everyone who was still struggling to resist the erosion of the black smoke seemed to have not yet realized that everything was over.
The black smoke dissipated, the sun shone into the forest again, and the vision became clear again.
Those waving black alien plants collapsed on the ground powerlessly, and the black color disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. The once ferocious and demonized alien plants returned to their true colors and returned to their original appearance, but all of them had long since withered.
Before being blackened, they had already lost their lives.
Ling Xuanwei put away her mental powers, carefully touched the dead trees beside her with her hands, and looked at everything around her in astonishment.
The forest seemed dead.
This is a situation that did not occur in the previous life.
Looking at the dead forest around her, Ling Xuanwei felt sad in her heart. Thinking of the vibrant life here once, she couldn't help but feel melancholy when she saw this scene of decline.
"Hey, hey, can you hear me?"
Nan Liang's voice sounded again.
"You can hear it." Ling Xuanwei answered him.
"Hey, we finally got in touch. How are you doing now? Are you okay?" Nan Liang asked.
"We are fine, no one was injured, it should be safe now." Lu Linyan replied.
Just as he finished speaking, zombie roars came one after another not far away.
Lu Linyan: "..."
He remembered that He Linbing had asked someone to contact them before, saying that a large group of zombies had entered the forest.
"I just saw a lot of zombies in the forest. I don't know what's going on over there, but I'd better proceed with caution," Nan Liang said.
"Ahem, it seems we have already met." Cheng Jun said with a heartless smile.
Through the gaps between the trunks of dead trees, they could see many zombies starting to rush toward them in the distance.
However, they were not panicked. They had just taken "Resuscitation" before, and now their abilities were almost full. Even Ling Xuanwei, who had been defending against the black smoke just now, had not used up much of her abilities.
Moreover, according to the news that He Linbing passed to them before, most of these zombies are very low-level zombies, and the number of third-level zombies is rare.
So judging from their current fighting status, it would not be difficult to destroy all those zombies.
As for the previous Zombie King, they were not too worried. After all, its territory was directly destroyed, and its fate might be the same as that of the previous Zombie King in City C.
"What!? Those damn vines seem to be all G-shaped. I will be at your location to pick you up soon." Compared to their calmness, Nan Liang was more nervous.
"There's no need to rush over so quickly, just keep looking for the others." Gu Wei pressed the earphone to persuade.
Nan Liang's field of vision in the air is wider, not to mention that now all the black strange plants seem to have turned into dead plants, and the threat to the air has disappeared. It is much easier for him to find them than it is for them.
"Okay, then be careful." Nan Liang said.
If other helicopters were not transporting supplies directly back to the base, the efficiency of finding people might be higher, and some of them could even provide them with air support now.
However, in fact, the remaining helicopters were of little significance. The threat posed by those black vines to the air made it almost impossible for them to provide air support.
"Ok." Cheng Jun replied.
They all agreed with Gu Wei's proposal just now, and now that they saw those zombies, they wanted to relax their muscles and have a good fight.
When everyone starts to take action.
A red signal flare rose into the air to attract everyone's attention. It seemed that the location was not very far away from them.
"It's Ling Cong!"
Everyone's first reaction was that if it was Boss Yun, then the location of the flare should be in the center of the forest, due west of them.
"I'll go over to take care of you first," Nan Liang said.
"Okay, we'll be there soon." Everyone replied.
Then he looked at those who had already rushed in front of them. The superpowers in their bodies were flowing, breaking through the obstacles of those low-level zombies, and heading towards the direction of the signal flare.
——
The flare was indeed set off by Ling Cong.
As for why Ling Cong only released it now?
It was simply because he had no chance when he was initially being chased by the Zombie King, and he himself did not want to implicate other teammates.
But now that everything has settled, naturally there are no more worries. It would be better to find a companion earlier, and by the way, he is still alive.
Mei was not from the same group as them, and saved Ling Cong because he had been helping her family before, and was about to leave alone.
but,
"You want to leave by yourself? Mei, are you afraid?" Ling Cong leaned against a dead tree and glanced at Mei in front of him.
"Afraid?" Mei sneered, and stopped as she prepared to leave, "How to provoke generals? Very good, this is what I do."
"Let's go to your place to detoxify. It's rare for me to find it myself. Am I afraid? Just don't be afraid then." Mei smiled cynically.
"There's more!"
Mei stepped closer to Ling Cong, so close that Ling Cong could smell the alluring rose fragrance on Mei. Then Mei raised her arms, and several vines came towards Ling Cong with spiritual power.
Ling Cong looked at her without evading.
The vines wiped Ling Cong's face, and instantly tied up the zombies that were about to attack him from behind, and threw them heavily to the ground. The vines twisted, and the zombies didn't even make a sound and then became silent again.
"Humph, was Captain Ling scared out of his wits by the zombie king before? He couldn't even detect such a sneak attack." He smiled and mocked.
Lightning exploded in Mei's ears, and Ling Cong waved his hand and instantly blocked the attack of the supernatural zombies behind Mei.
"Each other."
Ling Cong retorted to her with a smile, his eyes sharp.
——
Center of white fog.
Yunyou successfully completed the first vulnerability in the plane.
A green crystal appeared where the black vortex disappeared before, with a strong natural atmosphere.
The green and translucent crystal fell back into Yun You's hand.
This is?
Yun You looked at the strange thing in her hand. She felt it was familiar. She must have seen it in the information provided by Earth before, but she couldn't remember clearly.
"Meow, this is Yuan Jing." Da Ju reminded Yun You from the side.
Yuan Jing?
Hearing what Da Ju said, Yun You suddenly remembered what this was.
This crystal represents the origin of the power system of the current plane. In the current apocalyptic plane, energies such as supernatural powers have appeared. The common supernatural powers are the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. These five elements are also the most basic five elements.
And this green one happens to represent the wood element.
There is not even energy in the Yuan Jing, but it has a plane-level aura, and it has no effect on anyone.
Even if Yun You usually holds it, it is just a decoration, and can only be used in the last step of her mission, when she is finally repairing it.
However, Yuan Jing has a very important role.
Thanks Yue for the reward.
Thank you all for your support, I will write another update today.
