Chapter 283 Controlled Variation Vines

Xu Xin did not step out of the safe area rashly. He took out the energy core fragments from his backpack.

Although it is daytime now, the sky is not so bright. Countless white and thick clouds are piled up in the low sky. The shadows of the clouds cover the entire forest, making the already bleak forest even more melancholy.

But the moment the energy core fragments were taken out, the surroundings were illuminated by a white light, and at the same time, the temperature, which was originally only five or six degrees, began to rise rapidly, reaching over twenty degrees.

Holding the energy core fragments in his hand, Xu Xin intends to step into this area to test it out.

"Huh?" Ke Ke looked at the radiant core, then at the dangerous area, and tilted her head in doubt.

"You guys, just stay here and don't move. I'll go in and have a look."

Xu Xin got off the wolf and walked towards the dangerous area.

Coco did not stop him, indicating that perhaps there was really no danger.

Xu Xin focused on the map and stepped into the dangerous area.

The moment he stepped in, the red dot suddenly lit up from under his feet!

dangerous? !

He jumped back immediately, back to safety.

The ground cracked slightly in the vibration, but to Xu Xin's surprise, the mutated monster underground did not come out of the crack. On the map, the red dots of light quickly faded away, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Mimi jumped from behind when the red dot became the brightest, and swung her claws forward in advance, trying to attack the vine that was about to emerge, but the swing was in vain.

When it landed on the ground, it let out a suspicious cry.

Just like last time, before these underground mutated creatures got out, they noticed the light of the energy core fragments on the ground and shrank back.

However, this time it actually caused a crack in the ground.

The last time he rode the Silver King through that area, there was nothing unusual on the ground, but red dots like waves could be seen on the map.

But it's normal to think about it. After all, this place is in a dangerous area. Although the other side is a deterrent type of protection area, it can be regarded as a protection area.

Although those mutated creatures couldn't get out of the ground under the light of the energy core fragments, Xu Xin didn't plan to go deep into it.

According to his guess, the closer he was to the culprit, the stronger the underground mutated creatures would be. Now that they could crack the ground, if they went any further, they might be able to come out and attack him.

Right here. Prepare for the coming cold winter and beast tide tomorrow.

He put away the energy core fragments.

Holding this thing, those underground creatures dare not come out, so there is no way to kill them.

Xu Xin thought about it for a while. Maybe he can let Mimi go in and run around to attract all the mutated vines, and then he can directly take out the energy core and kill them collectively.

But then he gave up again.

In the lake in the karst cave, Xu Xin experienced the exhilaration of killing the blood-striped piranhas with this kind of core, but that was because those piranhas went deep into the lake, and the exit was relatively narrow, so when Xu Xin took out the core, those piranhas Crowded at the exit and unable to escape quickly, most of them were left behind in the end.

The bright white light of the energy core fragments would take at least five to ten seconds to kill a mutant creature.

Such a long time is enough for the mutated vines to retract below the ground again.

Moreover, the most important point, he can't get points for killing mutant creatures with energy core fragments!

This is not possible, this time, he needs both the mutated vine juice and the points, neither of which is missing.

"Mimi, run for dozens of meters along the edge of the reserve." Xu Xin gave Mimi an order.

Mimi rushed out immediately, stepped outside the edge of the protected area, and then started running along the edge of the protected area.

On the map, red dots suddenly lit up, the ground cracked, and thick blood-stained vines suddenly drilled out of the ground!

Mimi's speed is not fast, or, in terms of its own fastest speed, its current speed is like walking, as if playing with these vines that have just emerged from the ground.

Every vine was almost able to stab Mimi, but after Mimi turned around and returned to Xu Xin, she didn't even scrape off a single hair, and even grabbed one to death before leaving. vine.

[Kill the bloodthorn vine, get points: 50 points. 】

Well, that's right, there are indeed enhanced vines around here.

Xu Xin looked at the vines that were swinging back and forth on the edge of the protected area but did not enter the protected area to attack, and took out his halberd.

The vines here will not actively enter the protected area to attack. The last time the vines actively entered the protected area to attack was at the edge of Li Yajun's protected area, where the vines were stronger than here, and the points were higher than here.

And over there, Silver King will also be affected and the blood lines will light up, but not here.

According to his inference, there should be closer to the culprit that caused all this.

But you need to be careful here, because last time, the vines here also entered the protected area to attack once, but suddenly the blood streaks lit up, protecting it and retreating.

At this moment, a row of vines was swaying in the wind on the edge of the protected area. The dark green vines were dotted with blood streaks or thorns, which looked very strange and terrifying in the bleak and dark surroundings.

Xu Xin immediately aimed at the root of the vine and swung the halberd.

"Ka Ka Ka Ka!"

The side edge of the halberd chopped off the roots of four vines without any effort.

The four stiff vines stopped swinging and fell stiffly.

Xu Xin turned slightly to one side, avoiding a vine that fell on him. The vines crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and fallen leaves.

[Kill blood-striped vines*2, blood-stinged vines*2, get points: 160 points. 】

The points for each blood-striped vine are thirty points, which is a little less than the blood-scarred vine.

The vitality coming from the handle of the halberd made Xu Xin's whole state improve to the best, and even felt a sense of being strengthened. He didn't stop, and swung his halberd towards the row of mutated vines while running.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

He cut off the roots of several mutant vines directly, and the thick vines hit the ground heavily.

"Hey!" Ke Ke stood on Silver King's head, waving her paws to cheer Xu Xin on.

The remaining mutated vines were no longer waiting to die, some of them were quickly withdrawing below the ground, while the rest directly attacked Xu Xin in the protected area!

Sure enough, the vines here can still attack the inside of the reserve! It just won't take the initiative to attack!

"Mimi!" Xu Xin sideways avoided the whipping of a blood-thorn vine, raised the halberd in his hand, and directly split it into two pieces.

Mimi rushed forward immediately, her sharp claws stretched out.

Two cold lights flashed, and the two blood-striped vines were immediately cut into several pieces by Mimi's sharp claws.

Suddenly, the bodies of the vines closest to Xu Xin paused for a moment, and the blood glowed on their bodies immediately, and then they attacked Xu Xin together!

Stabbing, whipping, and even a vine tying his feet and pulling him into the danger zone!

Xu Xin was a little caught off guard, swung the halberd, and cut off the thickest bloodthorn vine that was thrown towards him, but his foot was already caught, and he was about to be pulled directly into the dangerous area!

At this time, Ah Fu's scream sounded, making all the movements of the vines stiff.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Xin immediately cut off the blood-stained vines tied to his feet. The Silver King also rushed forward and bit one. Dangerous, rushed over in an instant.

A few flashes of cold light flashed, and the five vines surrounding Xu Xin all lost their lives, hit the ground and twitched slightly, and then slowly returned to calm.

Xu Xin and his contracted beasts joined forces and quickly sent the remaining vines to Xitian.

"Hey!" Ke Ke kept hiding behind, saw that they had completely removed the vines, then ran up, jumped into Xu Xin's arms, and looked at him worriedly, "Hey..."

"Just now... what happened?" Xu Xin touched Ke Ke's little head and said to herself in a little doubt.

The attack method of those vines just now is completely different from the group of vines he experienced before!

Whether it was in the red mist near the salt mine or in the tree house defense battle, the attack methods of the vine group were chaotic and out of order.

That's why Xu Xin was able to rush out of the vines in the defense battle.

If they attack in a disciplined manner, their chances of breaking through the vines are close to zero.

There is a huge gap in combat effectiveness between the motley army and the real army.

And the five vines just now cooperated with each other!

A blood thorn vine came to wrap around his ankle, the other two stabbed towards him from the upper left front and lower front right, and the two blood thorn vines were thrown directly into the protection area, and flung towards him from the left and right sides!

Almost all the directions in which he was avoiding were blocked, even if he retreated, he would be directly pierced by the oncoming blood thorn vines!

This... how come there is a trick all of a sudden? !

Could it be that the vines here cannot be controlled by something?

Could it be that the thing that controls them and makes their attacks more organized is the culprit that makes them stronger?

For some reason, Xu Xin thought of what Ji Zhaoyang told him, the prophesied mutant human with tools.

Will those guys be able to control the actions of mutant creatures?

If this is the case, then the attack power of this beast horde might have to be raised to another level.

This crisis is really difficult for ordinary survivors to get through.

Xu Xin was not worried about being swallowed by the beast tide in the snow. After all, he had a plant heart, a control panel continuous crossbow explosive bolt, and an energy core fragment that could kill mutant creatures, which was enough to resist the beast tide.

He is most worried about the giant anaconda in the lake, and other possible giants.

Shaking his head, Xu Xin took out the energy core fragments, and the surroundings were instantly illuminated and warmed.

Under the illumination of the energy core, even if he entered a dangerous area, no mutated vines would emerge from the ground, so he easily put all the vine corpses into his purple-level backpack.
