Blue Sword

Ten minutes ago, the top of the Stuttgart signal tower.

"Do you know?" The man in robe stood at the edge of the viewing point, looking at the city below covered with forests and vines, "The Principality of Swabia used to be in the ancient Solomon Empire and was called the province of Germania."

"At that time, the empire wanted to cover the wireless network, but the local Jamani barbarians believed that if a base station was built near their residence, the electromagnetic signals would have adverse health effects on the human body."

"So they surrounded the imperial construction team, smashed the base stations they built, and massacred their engineers."

"In the end, the empire had no choice but to build this kind of super-large mobile communication base station on the hills in the suburbs. It is often as high as 200-300 meters, which is enough to cover the whole city into the signal range."

"Ignorance." said the young man behind the robed man.

"No, it's not ignorance." The man in the robe's voice deepened, "It's fear."

"Fear of authority."

"They don't know what a base station is. They can only perceive that the empire is changing their lives. Whether this change is good or bad, we don't know yet. But even if it is bad, it is difficult for them as individuals to resist the will of the empire, so they must intimidate and incite More people came to accumulate strength. So rumors started to arise. As for whether the base station itself is harmful to the human body, it doesn’t matter anymore, no one cares about it anymore.”

"What exactly do you want to say?" the young man behind him asked impatiently.

"I'm leaving." The man in robe said, "See you later. If you can survive until then."

"You're leaving?" The young man couldn't believe it, "But our career has just begun..."

"That's your business, not mine." The man in the robe said calmly, "And it's not about a career. You are just trying to survive for yourself, barely surviving under the pressure of the two major sects."

"Be careful. If you don't understand your situation clearly, I'm afraid that in the near future, you won't even know why you died."

He took half a step forward, and then his body quickly fell from the edge of the signal tower and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The young man stood there, his face half green and half white.

Turning back to the signal tower, huge plant vines had covered the entire room, and the leaves and flower bones were trembling slightly as if they were alive.

He came to one of the flower bones and lay back. The petals gradually closed and swallowed him up.

Inside the city, one of the soldiers on patrol suddenly felt sick to his stomach.

He held on to the lamppost next to the street and couldn't help but retched. As he vomited, something greasy quickly crawled out along his throat.

A green vine with branches and leaves.

"Ahhhhhhh!" He screamed in fear and pain, but more weeds and vines broke through his flesh and grew crazily from his body surface.

"Hurry and kill these monsters!" This is the cry of the panicked companions.

"Fire oil! Use kerosene!" the captain quickly instructed everyone.

A certain soldier hurriedly took out the kerosene from his waist, but was wrapped around his wrist by a vine that suddenly stretched out from the side. A feeling of numbness came over him instantly, and his entire arm withered and shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A moment later, these patrol soldiers were eaten alive by the almost out-of-control plants, leaving only a patch of vibrant greenery entrenched in the human city, spreading in all directions.

All the Stuttgart guards who had taken special drugs became ill almost at the same time, turning into nutrients for parasitic plants in their bodies, and supporting the rapid spread of these plants outwards.

Almost all the dogs, horses, humans and animals in the city were devoured by these strangely growing plants within a few minutes.

Gradually, the vines everywhere began to bear huge fruits. Each fruit contained a human corpse, and the heart that had stopped began to beat vigorously again.

Tens of minutes later, the members of the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group had arrived at the outskirts of Stuttgart.

"Is everyone ready?" Asked, wearing a gas mask.

"Ready." The girls were also fully armed, with their bodies tightly wrapped in clothes and wearing somewhat ferocious gas masks.

The gas mask originally belonged to the Bavarian plague. After the outbreak of the plague, Nora called back to Solomon City and asked the Licinius Group to transport medical supplies, which came in handy at this time.

Before entering the city, the air here is already filled with plant spores, which exude a brown sheen like scales in the sun. If these spores are inhaled, some changes may occur in the body.

Immediately afterwards, Mi'er took out a large number of special firearms and carefully distributed them to everyone.

The flamethrower came from the secret technology research institute underground in the previous mutated town. The extraordinary properties of Flame I are embedded inside the firearm. As long as the user provides spirituality, it will continuously emit a stream of flame heat.

After the mutation ended, everyone returned to the underground research institute in the real plane, cleared out all these firearms, and stored them in Hearth Island... which came in handy at this time.

Huh? Smart and astute people like Sheila and Medea suddenly felt that this seemed to be a bit too much of a coincidence.

Could it be that when the regiment leader picked up those guns and gas masks, did he already expect that one day they would be needed?

Sheila was puzzled, while Medea was directly reading minds.

No results were read, Asik was thinking about other things, but based on Medea's understanding of him, this guy must have planned it in advance.

In the urban area ahead, the plants have stopped growing wildly, and their leaves are clinging to all surfaces that can be attached. Whether it is roads or buildings, they are covered by these green plants.

It's like a prehistoric rainforest.

However, the girls all wore gas masks and held flamethrowers in their hands, which meant that the attack and defense against the plants in this mission copy had reached Max.

Inject spirituality into the gun, pull the trigger forward, and spray out flames. So not to mention the spores in the air, even the flower bones that produce the spores were burned completely.

As everyone continued to walk forward, they saw buds sprouting from the ground in front of them, and vines stretching out along the street next to them.

"Come again," Aske said.

Everyone fired their guns again, and the flames swept across the place and burned the plants.

"These plants seem to be draining the vitality of the nearby land." Nora suddenly said, "I noticed that the vitality of the land under my feet is slowly draining."

"Is the land also alive?" Eleanor asked curiously.

"Vital energy is stored in the land in the form of humus, which is often referred to as land fertility in agriculture." Nora explained, "Plants use photosynthesis to synthesize organic matter and store it in their bodies. After the plant dies, the organic matter in the remains will be Returning to the earth, over time, fertile soil with thick humus will be formed.”

"The rapid growth and metabolism of these plants are based on the cost of extracting the vitality of the land. After this mutation is completely resolved..." Nora hesitated and continued, "This land will most likely become A desert where no plants can be grown.”

Everyone was speechless.

But everyone had no time to be sentimental, because countless fruits on the vines in front exploded, and a large number of green-skinned monsters emerged from them.

"WAAAGH!!!"

This is the loudest cry they made with all their strength when they came into this world.

Like a piercing chorus.
