Chapter 114 A large tree growing horizontally

When Lu Pingxi, the Iron-eating Zerg and Dagen were on their way back, Lu Pingxi said: "The Lord of the Mountains of the Emerald Mountains is not normal. It buried itself in the mountains, and its roots extend in all directions and touch all parts of the mountains. This is A very bizarre phenomenon.”

The iron-eating zerg nodded: "Yes, a tree usually develops vertically. The crown of the tree is desperately touching the sky, and the roots are desperately digging into the earth. Therefore, the dryads are extremely tall, but I have never heard of horizontal development. Dryad."

Lu Pingxi said: "Trees grow vertically to allow the crown to receive more sunlight and absorb more nutrients, so they appear tall. However, the growth of the Lord of the Mountains is horizontal, which means that It gives up the energy from the sun and the nutrition from the ground, and what it wants is the same level of nutrition as itself.”

Dagen was dazed listening to the side. With its IQ, it could no longer understand the topic between Lu Pingxi and the Iron-eating Zerg. The Iron-Eating Zerg thought about it carefully, and then was surprised: "Nutrition at the same level, isn't this the same as Are we like animals hunting? These horizontally growing tree roots are prepared for predators and for hunting monsters!"

Under the guidance of Lu Pingxi, the iron-eating zerg suddenly understood that the reason why the lord of the mountains spread tree roots all over the mountains was to hunt horizontally. All living creatures are its prey targets, and it wants to absorb the nutrients of the surrounding creatures. Then let the roots take root throughout the sixth floor.

The Iron-eating Zerg just thought about it for a moment and immediately understood the purpose of the Lord of the Mountains. It asked in great surprise: "Then do we want to stop it?"

Lu Pingxi said calmly: "It's not to stop it, but to kill it. You should understand that if its plan succeeds, then the next target will definitely be us. Not only that, if it completely takes over the sixth floor, then The human coalition army will no longer be able to continue its attack."

The iron-eating zerg nodded silently. It had long known the relationship between its predecessors and humans. Currently, in its understanding, the Legend Squad was all monsters, but the seniors should have used the name of the Legend Squad to win over humans. Enter the relationship.

The seniors should have taken a fancy to human beings' knowledge, infrastructure capabilities and huge population, so they wanted to take advantage of humans. This also explains why powerful monsters like the seniors would come to the bottom in person.

Lu Pingxi and the others were discussing while moving forward. However, when they were halfway there, they suddenly felt the earth shaking. Shock waves kept coming from the direction of the Emerald Mountains. One wave after another, several people had a premonition that something was happening over there. Something bad happened.

When Lu Pingxi and the others rushed to the Emerald Mountains, the mountains had undergone drastic changes. Su Yu and the little flower demon who were in retreat were awakened. They immediately ran out of the cave, and then they saw the ground around them cracked. , countless tree roots came out from under the cracks, and then attacked them crazily.

These tree roots are like the terrifying Cthulhu tentacles. Not only are they extremely tough, but the tips of the tree roots are very sharp and can easily penetrate the human body. In addition, the tree roots are also wrapped with countless tree vines. These tree vines are also Able to capture enemies.

The little flower demon was a little surprised: "What happened?"

Su Yu immediately took out two bone swords and said, "My boss warned me that there might be something wrong with this mountain range!"

The little flower demon used the Spirit Wood Flying Sword to chop off the surrounding tree roots. Then she said, "Since he knew there was a problem, why didn't he tell him earlier?"

"whispering sound!"

Suddenly there was an eagle cry, and the giant eagle descended from the sky. It shouted: "Get on my back, the roots of this tree cannot attack the creatures in the sky."

A steady stream of tree roots came out of the ground. Although Su Yu and the little flower demon could easily cut them off, there were too many roots. Cutting them down like this was just a waste of their energy.

Su Yu immediately climbed onto the back of the giant eagle. The giant eagle spread its wings and then flew into the sky. The little flower demon immediately followed after stepping on the spirit wood flying sword.

"What happened?" the little flower demon asked.

The giant eagle's eagle eyes stared at the ground: "You'll know just by looking below."

Su Yu poked his head out from the back of the giant eagle, and then saw the tree roots that were constantly popping up on the ground. Those tree roots were like crazy snakes and like ocean waves. All the plants and animals on the ground were attracted by the trees. The roots swept in.

The tip of a tree root is like a needle. Once pierced by this tip, both plants and animals will immediately decay.

"Their breath of life has been taken away!" The little flower demon was shocked. How on earth was this done? Isn't this the sixth floor? Is there such a terrifying existence on the sixth level?

The earth cracked open, and countless tree roots rolled out. In the emerald green mountains, many tree demons and flower demons were wrapped in tree vines, and then the roots penetrated their bodies and absorbed the life breath.

Then, the little flower demon and the others saw an even more terrifying scene. A sharp tree trunk suddenly cut open the head of a tree demon, and then took out a wooden brain. The brain was still beating and emitting spiritual energy fluctuations.

This made both Su Yu and the little flower demon feel a little disgusted: "What is it going to do?"

Then, they saw countless sharp branches slicing open the monster's head, taking out the brain, and then sending it to the main peak at the core of the Emerald Mountains. The main peak had begun to collapse, and an extremely huge tree grew. The canopy of trees almost pierced the sky.

The countless monster brains were sent to the location of the big tree, and then sent into the core of the big tree.

The little flower demon said in surprise: "It's the lord of the mountains, it's it! It doesn't even spare its own compatriots!"

Next to the Lord of the Mountains, there are several captured tree demons and flower demons. These tree demons and flower demons are the confidants of the Lord of the Mountains, but at this moment, they still cannot escape the clutches of the Lord of the Mountains.

Shuqing asked loudly: "Pulse Master, we are your compatriots, why do you do this?"

The Lord of the Mountains replied loudly: "In order to make the sixth floor a permanent refuge for plant-type monsters, a small number of plant-type monsters must be sacrificed. Your sacrifices are valuable, as long as you let me become this level's permanent refuge." As the overlord of the sixth floor, the plant monster will dominate the sixth floor forever.”

As he spoke, the sharp tree trunk cut open Shuqing's body, and the soft tree vine took out its brain.

The flower demons on the side kept screaming, and they cursed like crazy: "Lord of the mountains, you must die a good death!"

The Lord of the Mountains shook his head, and the huge tree crown swayed. It said: "You still don't understand me. I sacrificed the interests of a few demons for the sake of the entire plant-type monster clan, just to achieve greater success for the entire plant-type monster clan." Interests."

There are countless plant-based monsters living in the emerald green mountains. These monsters are running away frantically at the moment, but the Lord of the Mountains has regarded them as food, and his plan must have a group of such monsters to contribute nutrients to it.

Ordinary plants grow vertically and get nutrients from the earth, so they grow slowly. However, the Lord of the Mountains does the opposite. It grows horizontally and absorbs nutrients from monsters. In this way, it can spread throughout the sixth world at the fastest speed. layer.

"I am for the entire race. I am the savior of the plant-based demon race."

Halfway through the words of the Lord of the Mountains, a voice came from the far west: "Lord of the Mountains, you are not a savior, because you are not sacrificing a few to save the majority, but sacrificing other plant monsters to satisfy you. It’s just your own selfish desires. If you have to sacrifice yourself to save the plant monster clan, will you sacrifice yourself?”
