"..." Han Dong turned to look at Ma Xiaolong without saying thanks.

I thought the situation over there was not much better, but I saw that the other side had almost escaped danger at the same time as him.

After Ma Xiaolong was dragged into the quagmire, his arm muscles exerted force, and his skin and body turned black. With the last force, he actually tore the tough tentacles into pieces with his hands.

What Ma Xiaolong strengthened was strength, and in hand-to-hand combat, strength was the most powerful attribute.

Not satisfied with tearing off the tentacles of the creature, Ma Xiaolong grabbed a nearby swamp tree root with one hand and pulled the monster out of the mud swamp with the other hand.

After emerging from the water with a "crash", everyone saw clearly what the monster looked like.

A "plate" the size of a wall.

Its flat body is really like a plate, with wriggling hairs on its back to facilitate swamp movement, and countless tentacles on its front. In the middle of the "plate" is its bloody mouth.

"Flat body, standard ambush creature." As Zheng Senlin spoke, he came to the monster's side, collected some cells, and threw it far away.

With a "pop", the thing fell into the puddle. After falling, it was trying to squirm into the mud and the bottom of the water, but then a vortex suddenly appeared on the ground, swallowing the mud and monsters together.

"Is there a whirlpool? Are there monsters in it?" Seeing the situation over there, Shen Yuan came to Zheng Senlin in a cold sweat, "Is it okay for us to walk over like this?"

"There are not many such vortex monsters on the path I chose." In Zheng Senlin's tactile perception, the "whirlpool monster" is a creature with a diameter of more than 20 meters hidden in the mud, like a "flower and bone flower". Their ability to move is very weak. "Ambush hunters usually don't have a strong appetite because they exercise little and consume very little energy. They can sustain life by eating once for a long time. Come with me, there won't be much danger."

If it was the last time he came to this planet, he would not dare to say this. After all, everyone was ordinary people last time, and it was very difficult to cross this small swamp.

But it's different now. Everyone's abilities have been greatly improved, and everyone has the means to save their lives.

"Follow closely!" Zheng Senlin continued to lead the team without stopping.

This swamp is not very big. After crossing a distance of more than ten kilometers, everyone saw the lake - the big lake that surrounded the entire island.

It was quiet beside the lake. Except for some birds circling in the sky, there seemed to be no trace of animal activity.

"That's not right, Mr. Zheng. Didn't you say last time that there would be a lot of animals by the lake? Why is it different this time?" Cheng Xin still remembered the "knowledge points" from last time, but she couldn't compare them this time, so she immediately asked a question .

"Two reasons. The first is that the lake is adjacent to a swamp, with more water sources and easy access to water. Animals do not have to come to the lake to drink water. But even so, it is not so deserted here." Zheng Senlin looked at the lake from a distance , concluded, "The second reason is that there is a very powerful creature here that no one dares to mess with, and it has a strong sense of territory."

"I understand, crossing the lake will be dangerous." Cheng Xin nodded, then turned to look at Han Dong, "Hey, did you see anything?"

"Under the lake, there is a large area of ​​animals that are over 18 meters in size and look a bit like jelly frogs."

"What is a jelly frog?"

"It's just that the body is gelatinous... Well, let me think about it... Have you ever seen a jellyfish?"

"Um."

"It's the kind of jellyfish-shaped frog that's more gelatinous than jellyfish." Han Dong's lack of vocabulary could not describe what he saw.

However, Cheng Xin didn't care much about what this thing was, so he grabbed two key words - "a large area" and "18 meters".

"That is to say, there are many giant monsters in groups under the water. Although they don't regard people our size as food, because they are very territorial, we will be attacked as soon as we get close!" Cheng Xin nodded! Nodding, "Isn't crossing the lake equal to seeking death?"

Although his physical functions have been strengthened a lot now, he is still a human weighing just over a hundred pounds. If he fights against a group of giant monsters, his winning rate is basically zero.

"Can't you fly?" Han Dong thought of the scene of being rescued just now and looked at Shen Yuan.

"Ah? I can't fly." Shen Yuan touched his mecha and explained: "Do you really think I am Iron Man? This thing is not powerful enough. It can take off for a short time, but it can't be used to fly. Unless Lao Zheng Help me upgrade the power module."

"Want to borrow money from me?" Zheng Senlin doesn't understand mechanical engineering, and Shen Yuan's meaning is very clear - he just wants to buy ready-made products from high-end civilized stores.

"Yes, how many exploration coins do you have left?"

"430." Last time I came back, I bought "Carbon-Based Biological Low Genetic Engineering Course" for 5,000 points.

After analyzing the monster's leg bones, all the proceeds were used to buy medicines that promote cell production.

These 430 points are earned along the way.

"Just in time, I still have a few hundred points left. It's enough to install a thruster module. Lend it to me!"

"Okay." Although Zheng Senlin nodded in agreement, the others in the team were very unhappy.

They didn't like Shen Yuan in the first place, and they valued the exploration coins very seriously. Li Li almost died last time and they were reluctant to use a few coins to give it to this new guy, which made the other three people very uncomfortable.

"What are you doing, what are you doing, each of them looks like his dead father?" After Shen Yuan accepted the transfer, he turned around and saw the expressions of the three of them, and immediately said: "We are teammates, why are we so xenophobic? Besides, It’s not like I won’t pay it back!”

While he was talking, he quickly redeemed a power module without delay, "Here, that boy whose arm will turn black, insert this thing into the gap on my back."

"My name is Ma Xiaolong." Taking the module, he pressed it hard into the gap. It was obvious that this was the socket deliberately left by Shen Yuan when he made the mecha.

There are still many connecting ports left on his body, and there is still huge room for upgrades in his steel equipment.

"Hey, that's great!" After getting the advantage and connecting to the energy source, Shen Yuan was about to take off into the air, when suddenly his mecha's communication module received a signal, a distress signal.

The signal should have been sent by an individual radio station. Because the distance was too far, the sound could not be heard clearly.

But vaguely, I could hear messages such as "help" and "help".

"Do you want to help?" Hearing this voice, several people hesitated, "I wonder who they are from?"

"Which way?"

"Di" "Di" The mecha flashed a few times, and then fixed a position on the electronic projection, "Across the lake."

"You can go and have a look. If it's a foreign exploration team, just act according to the situation. If there's danger, it's more important to save your life. If it's one of your own, try to save them." Zheng Senlin came to a conclusion after thinking for a while.
