Chapter 252: Fluorescent Forest
The fungus swarms in the sky seemed endless and kept falling. In the Chuancheng Fortress, although Lifeng issued a timely defense order, there were still thousands of people infected after swallowing or being contaminated by the spores of this fungus. Most of these people were treated by the mutant warriors, but there were still more than a thousand people who were directly sucked dry by the strains because they swallowed too many fungus swarms or for too long. They stood there and turned into a huge fungus mixture, which looked extremely terrifying.
Moreover, these strains transformed from humans seem to grow extremely rapidly due to sufficient nutrition, and they are huge in size, with some even reaching ten meters in height!
Some people had their attacks on the streets, others in their rooms. Sometimes, the doors and windows of a building would be quickly pushed open, and then a huge strain would come out. When the mutant warriors broke through the door and rushed in, they often saw only a few huge clusters of fungi standing there, and some tattered clothes entangled on them.
Even with Li Feng's timely warning, the Chuancheng Fortress has become like this. Who knows what will become of the other fortresses and bases that have no defense at all!
After understanding this fungus, Li Feng did not dare to stay at all. He immediately left Mu Qi to guard the Chuancheng Fortress and returned to the Dawn Fortress alone.
The entire Dawn Fortress now has more than 100,000 people, nearly half of whom are mutants, and Er Gouzi also saw the opportunity early, so except for a few dozen people being infected at the beginning of the Cloud Disaster, there was no serious problem. After all, the were built to withstand nuclear strikes and radioactive dust, so as long as they stayed inside, there would be no problem.
Seeing that nothing happened to the Dawn Fortress, Li Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, although the Chuancheng Fortress was much larger than the Dawn Fortress, his real foundation was still here.
"Second brother, has number three left?" Li Feng asked anxiously.
Er Gouzi said immediately, "Let's go, but I extorted a lot of money from him and asked him to help us expand the Dawn Fortress to five times its current size. He also provided detailed information on the ruins of dozens of surrounding cities, as well as some other miscellaneous things. There is also an instant communicator. If you want to find him, you can find him right away." Er Gouzi said, shaking something in his paw that looked like an integrated circuit board.
"Very good, hurry up, find it again immediately and let it provide enough gas masks and goggles! If there are transparent masks, it will be even better!" Richemont said immediately. At this time, if you want a large amount of supplies, you must find No. 3. After all, no one would hoard gas masks and goggles before. In fact, gas masks are easier to say, after all, if you make masks out of cloth, they can also play a certain role, but goggles are not something that can be made casually.
"No problem!" Er Gouzi immediately understood what Li Feng meant and hurried out to summon No. 3. Er Gouzi did not have any adverse reactions to the cloud disaster, which in itself also proved one thing, that is, the mutant beasts would not be infected by this terrible colony.
On the way back from Lifeng, he found that the zombies also did not feel any discomfort. Obviously, this infection was only targeting the primitive people who had not evolved!
Did the twelve archangels want to exterminate all the original humans?!
The only solution now is to save the lives of these primitive people that he can control, and then send them into the blood eggs of the insect nest in batches to speed up their evolution and stimulate the superpowers in their bodies.
At this moment, he finally realized again that the so-called seven chapters of world destruction were made up by the angels in order to select truly powerful warriors. Those creatures that could not evolve would be eliminated!
He also understood in an instant that the blood eggs in the insect nest could stimulate the superpowers in the original human body, which was obviously a way to survive for the original human. The original human who could find this method would naturally survive, while those who could not find this method or were unable to enter the insect nest to accelerate evolution due to insufficient strength would be completely eliminated!
But this time, Li Feng did not get angry again, but seemed extremely calm. The reason for this was that the anger that almost drove him crazy had been locked deep in his heart, waiting to burst out completely one day!
In the Dawn Fortress, teams of soldiers who had originally participated in the "River Water" operation were sent out again. Although their destination this time was still the various wilderness fortresses and bases in the southwest region that were once under the jurisdiction of the Chuancheng Fortress, their purpose was not just to occupy and take over, but also to immediately publicize the harm of the cloud disaster and tell people how to prevent and control it.
At this time, the news that Xu Hao was killed and Chuancheng Fortress was taken over by the Dawn Party had spread like wildfire among various small fortresses and bases. However, compared with the terrifying cloud disaster that just appeared, this matter has become less important. Almost every human refuge settlement has people infected with the strain!
Even in some small bases with only a few hundred people, when the Dawn SS insect cavalry rushed in, they only saw clusters of fungi like forests standing everywhere in the base, without a single sound, as if silently telling everything that happened here...
Many times, when people discover the secret of the infection , it is already too late... Moreover, the abdomen and chest of those infected people will explode at any time in the process of becoming strains, spraying out huge amounts of spores and infecting people around them.
The number of original people still alive in the entire southwest region is less than half of the original number! And among these people, some are chronically infected...
The entire southwest region, or perhaps the entire earth, has now fallen into a dead silence. The small-scale battles that were constantly taking place have mostly ceased, and most of the living creatures are hiding in their nests, quietly waiting for the "snow" outside to stop. However, different creatures have completely different feelings about this "snow".
For the original humans, this was a horrible disaster. For the mutants, they were worried about their fellow humans who had not yet evolved. And it can be imagined that the hearts of the Zerg and the Orcs were absolutely filled with joy, because this "snow" meant that they had enough food and no longer had to worry about starving!
The mushroom clusters that kept falling from the sky seemed endless, until three days later, the last cluster of mushrooms finally landed on the ground.
At this time, the thick fungus in the wilderness was almost as high as the knees. Moreover, the wormwood that originally covered the wilderness had all disappeared, and in its place was a jungle of fungi!
Huge fungus clusters rose from the ground like trees, forming an endless jungle in the wilderness. Some of these fungus clusters were about one meter tall, while others were as tall as twenty meters, just like towering trees.
In just three days, the dark wilderness has changed its appearance and turned into a sea of bacterial colonies!
Moreover, there will no longer be complete darkness. Because about 30% of these fungi can emit soft fluorescence, illuminating the entire wilderness. Although it is not as bright as sunlight, with such a huge number, it is like a full moon night.
Standing on the insect nest of Dawn Fortress, Richemont looked out into the fluorescent wilderness, and the beautiful dreamlike scenery was in full view. Most of the fluorescence emitted by these colonies was a faint milky white light, and some special species were mixed in, emitting red, blue, purple and even colorful fluorescence, which was very beautiful.
Looking around, Richemont suddenly felt like it had arrived on another planet, and wasn’t sure if it was still on Earth.
Although the scenery was absolutely beautiful, Li Feng did not look happy at all, because he knew that in this beautiful sea of fungi, there was also absolute murderous intent!
