Chapter 454
454 The Furious grace
The macaw was dumbfounded.
In just a month, the death quagmire had turned from a terrifying place full of gray fog to a place full of vitality, and the air was filled with a sweet scent.
Link looked at the drastic changes in the death quagmire. He took off his gas mask, but he didn’t feel any discomfort. He didn’t even feel abnormal. The bloodey algae absorbed the gray fog in the forest and turned it into oxygen, creating an oxygen-rich environment in the forest. The dead trees and sickly leaves that couldn’t get sunlight because of the thick gray fog were rejuvenated and lush after this period of ” conditioning.
Seeing this, the macaw also took off its gas mask. The two nostrils on its metal beak expanded several times, greedily breathing in the air of the death quagmire.
The macaw took a few deep breaths and couldn’t help but sigh. the air here is too good. One breath is enough to make me feel refreshed. Two breaths are enough to make me feel better. Three breaths are enough to make me feel like I’m a God.
Link glanced at the macaw’s exaggerated movements and said,”Those who know you are describing an oxygen-rich environment, but those who don’t know you might think you are advertising cigarettes.”
Lin Ke looked around. As the gray fog had dissipated, his vision was much clearer. The trees that had once grown menacingly looked much more pleasing to the eye now that they had regained sunlight and oxygen. It was as if they had undergone plastic surgery.
Link didn’t go straight to the red Land to find the harpies. Instead, he followed the sound of the song to find the sunflowers full of positive energy to understand the situation.
After walking for a while, link came to a flat area that had been “occupied” by the sunflowers. It was now the size of a small garden. There was a “window” between the treetops, allowing the sun to shine directly on the ground, so it became the sunflower’s territory.
When link walked into the “garden,” the sunflowers changed their song and clapped their leaves in unison. welcome, welcome, a warm welcome ~ welcome to The Wizard of Oz, master, to give you guidance!
Immortal trace of green field
lin ke’s mouth twitched. as expected of a creature created from books. there was culture in its blood.
This name was much more brilliant than the death quagmire.
Link glanced around and saw the largest sunflower. you’re the captain here, right? the first batch that was put in here? ”
The sunflower with the largest face broke through the ground with its roots and swayed to Link’s side.
boss, you’re really sharp. I’m indeed from the first batch that was released by primordial.
then tell me about your situation in the past month, ” link said. did you encounter any obstacles in the death swamp? ” Before he went to find the Harpy, link had to understand the current situation.
Even though the forest was green, it was still a war.
Link’s ” Green Revolution ” had taken over half of the death swamp. The harpies must have noticed the thinning fog as well. There was no way they wouldn’t react. So, link needed to find out what had happened in the past month before he went to find the Harpy.
The old sunflower sighed, his eyes reminiscing. a month’s worth of experience. That’s a little rich, Yingluo.
The old sunflower walked to a nearby rock and sat down. His tone was calm as he continued,”Then let’s start from the day it was released. We were thrown into the quagmire of death and were scattered in the air due to the airflow. I’m in a worse state, when I landed, I landed face first.
After landing, with the help of the illusionary vine, they quickly met up with the two-colored algae. In the beginning, the death Quagmire’s environment was harsh, and the air was filled with poisonous gas. With every breath, a pile of gray matter would be spat out, which smelled like second-hand smoke. In this unfamiliar place, the three of us can only help each other. The dual-colored algae reproduced with great effort every day to give us the ‘Oxygen of Love’. The illusion vines drove away the giant radioactive spiders in the forest, and I provided them with positive energy every day to cheer them on. I also used my voice to deter the threats in the forest.
soon, our territory grew bigger and bigger, and the air quality got better and better. however, we were also targeted by the local snake of the death quagmire. The other party’s speed is extremely fast, and he can even fly. He seems to have mastered some terrifying taboo and has captured many of our brothers. After that, they even sent out their own minions to carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the forest, causing us to suffer heavy losses.
however, as the saying goes, the wildfire can’t burn out, but the spring breeze will bring it back. The enemy can destroy us physically, but they can’t destroy our spirit! We’ve experienced difficult and hardworking days. Now we’re just starting over again. Nothing can stop the hard work and effort of the Green Army!
In just five short days, we’ve grown bigger and more extensive than before. this time, a different strategy has been adopted. First, we’ve concentrated on creating a few oxygen-rich points. An oxygen-rich environment is highly toxic to the enemy. We’ll develop the oxygen-rich points vigorously and then send them out to occupy other places and build other oxygen-rich points. they used this method to quickly regain the territory that they had originally occupied and even expanded. this process repeated over and over again. new life, destruction, new life, destruction. not only were we not defeated, but the entire forest was filled with life.
the enemy tried to set the forest on fire, but the fire didn’t spread for long before we worked together to put it out. In addition, we also learned how to fight guerilla. The illusion vine carried the bi-colored algae to move and provide oxygen. When the enemy finds us, we will drill a hole and hide in the mud. In the end, after a month of battle of wits and courage, they had successfully driven the enemy out of the forest.
The Wizard of Oz is under our complete control, and the enemy doesn’t dare to enter the country easily. “however, due to geological reasons, the temperature of the crimson lands is too high. we’ve tried to cross the crimson lands by force several times, but we’ve always failed. in the end, we can only use the crimson lands as a boundary and do things our own way. But we’ve arranged a large amount of dual-colored algae near the border. Even if we can’t get in, we have to find a way to absorb the gray fog in the air and compress the living space of the enemy.”
the old sunflower’s report was very detailed. after listening to it, link could already imagine the shocking events that had happened in the death’s quagmire this month.
“You’ve worked hard.”
the old sunflower waved his hand. ” master, you don’t have to be so polite. it’s our good fortune to have the opportunity to transform this abandoned land into the wizard of oz. not all plants had the same experience and honor. The experiences we’ve had these days will eventually become our wealth and our strength.”
Tsk, he’s always talking about his old profession,”is chicken soup for fighting good?”
Link had a rough idea of the current situation. According to the old sunflower’s description, the Eagle witch had been driven out of the forest along with the giant radioactive spider and other terrifying creatures. They were either killed by the illusion vine or fled to the scorched earth.
At the side, the macaw had a camera chicken above its head, faithfully recording the scene just now.
with his sense of smell as the number one video knight in shatu, this interview would definitely go viral once it was published.
The old sunflower’s wittiest words were like pearls. His eloquence just now had been used as a form of motivation.
Link thought about it in the perspective of the Harpy. If he was the Lord of the gray fog or the Queen of harpies, his territory would shrink by half because of some unremarkable plants. The gray fog would also decrease day by day, threatening his life. however, these plants were very ” smart “, and it was difficult to remove them physically.
Link could already imagine how furious the Harpy would be if she revealed her anger and claimed that she was the master of the plants.
yup, with the letter from the last release, the taunting effect was at its maximum.
“It seems like a battle is inevitable.”
If the same thing happened to link, he would definitely start a fight without a second thought.
Putting himself in her shoes, link didn’t think that the Harpy would be able to talk to him calmly.
This was also why link had brought King Kong here. After the victory in the weeping Valley, link had a new understanding of King Kong and realized that he was quite talented in dissuading.
After leaving the sunflower garden, link led the macaw, King Kong, and Ah Fu through the forest.
The sun shone through the lush canopy, and the shadows of the trees on the ground were mottled. The environment had changed greatly, and the ecology had also changed. Other than the Oozeling, link did not see any other creatures. There was not even a shadow of the radioactive spiders that had frightened Fu.
the reason why oozelings could survive and reproduce so well was that they could replace the fantasy vine and carry the bicolored algae to move. thus, they became the only ” darling ” of the wizard of oz bus.
Soon, they arrived at the ‘front line’.
The two-colored algae covered the branches and trunks, spreading everywhere. They absorbed the surrounding gray fog at full power and turned it into oxygen. In order to expand the area, many illusionary vines were added to it and hung on the branches, allowing the dual-colored algae to attach to the surface of his body, forming a green curtain.
and in the red scorched land a line away from the immortal tracks, not a single blade of grass grew, the desert was endless, only jagged and strange rocks could be seen.
There was still a thick gray fog above the scorched earth, but it was visibly higher and not as thin as last time.
The macaw carefully guarded its head. The last time its claws emerged from the gray fog was still fresh in its memory.
The tall King Kong, on the other hand, was expressionless. To elemental creatures made of metal, the gray fog would only cause harm to them if it was corrosive. Otherwise, it could be completely immune to the toxicity.
“Where are we going now? The red Land is so big, who knows where the harpies are?” the macaw had a camera on its head as it looked around. it felt that other than the underground base in the rubble, there was nothing special about the red land. it was extremely difficult to find the owner of this place in such a monotonous place.
After the macaw finished speaking, it had an idea and looked at Fu.
This must be the reason why link had brought Ah Fu here. As long as he let Ah Fu out, a small harpy would be easy to capture.
no need. I already know where the enemy is. Let’s go and visit them directly. Link’s tone was light. After understanding the happenings of the past month with the old sunflower, he’d noticed that the Harpy had caught some illusionary vines, two-colored algae, and sunflowers.
If link was right, the Harpy must have captured these three plants to study, especially the dual-color algae’s ability to absorb the gray fog. It was a complete nemesis of the death mire’s environment. Especially these plants that had appeared overnight. They had never appeared before.
Since he was going to capture a living body for research, link could lock onto the location.
As expected, in [ swarm commander ] mode, link saw a few scattered spots of light in the depths of the scorched earth.
the macaw was shocked. they hadn’t even released fu, and they already knew where the enemy was?
After entering the scorched land, link quickened his pace and headed straight for the Harpy.
The gray fog was suspended two meters in the air, and The Hanged Man was nowhere to be seen.
Link held his breath and jumped up. There were only pieces of rope left in the gray fog. Other than that, there was nothing else. It was far from the creepy and terrifying fog that had fallen last time.
Ah Fu shrunk his neck and followed behind link, his black eyes darting around. It seemed that the dangerous escape from the death quagmire last time had left a deep impression on him.
The macaw followed behind him in large strides. Although it couldn’t see the situation in the gray fog, it wasn’t worried about being attacked. After all, its height wasn’t within the enemy’s attack range.
The only calm member in the team was King Kong.
After the evolution, King Kong’s body size had increased slightly, and his height had exceeded the two-meter mark. He straightened his back and walked on the bare ground. Half of his head was in the gray fog, leaving only his nose and mouth outside.
“Hey, King Kong, can you still see the road clearly like this?” The macaw couldn’t help but ask. The visibility in the gray fog was extremely low, only a few meters. King Kong’s eyes were in the gray fog, so how could he recognize the path under his feet?
king kong bent over slightly, revealing a pair of golden eyes.”I have the fiery golden eyes, which can see through the evil miasma.”
Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
Just as everyone was advancing, the sound of cloth being torn suddenly came from the gray fog, followed by an ear-piercing shriek that rolled through the gray fog.
The macaw and Ah Fu covered their ears immediately, their expressions pained.
A notification appeared on Link’s system interface.
[you have received a mental attack. Your energy attribute is greater than 120 points. You have resisted a portion of the damage, and the subsequent mental attack damage is reduced by 60%.]
[you have been attacked by [lethal shriek] and lost 400 health points.]
Good Lord, he had not even locked onto the enemy’s position and he was already injured.
Resisting 60% of the damage and losing 400 health points. The panel damage of [fatal shriek] was as high as 1000 points, worthy of being a level 40+(leader).
In the next second, King Kong put his hands together and chanted in Sanskrit. The clear heart incantation wrapped everyone in a light green protective field formed by Sanskrit. The macaw and Ah Fu were sweating profusely, and their spirits were somewhat weakened.
Hu ~”the macaw panted heavily, but when it raised its head, it immediately saw a blob monster in the distance. It was tens of meters tall, and as it moved, its fat trembled. Wherever it passed, rocks flew, and it charged over like a meat-bomb chariot.
“Oh, link, I think we need to focus on this big guy.” The macaw suggested as it retreated.
Link glanced at the blob monster charging at them and patted King Kong, who was still chanting.”King versus King versus general, I’ll leave this guy to you.”
king kong looked into the distance and glanced at the deformed blob monster. his eyes flashed with a sharp light. sure, no problem. This is a huge pile of merit. I can feel the pain of his soul being torn apart. It’s time to help him get rid of the pain.
