Chapter 1310: The First Wave of Attack

Soon after Lin Qiao and her people exited the cave, a red figure flew out and flashed across the air, flying toward Lin Qiao. An hour after that, Huaxia people came down as well.

Like Lin Qiao, Xie Longyun was surprised to see the illuminated area outside the cave. After spending quite a while observing the surrounding environment, she raised a hand and gave her people a gesture while saying, “Squad Nine stay here! Guard the entrance, don’t let them come back and go back up from here. Squad one and two, come with me. The others, split up into two groups, go left and right to explore this place. Remember, don’t take off your gas masks!”

While finishing her speech, she raised a hand to point at the dark-purple mist in the upper area and warned them that inhaling the raw air in that place wouldn’t lead to any good result.

“Yes, ma’am!” About fifty people behind her responded in one voice. After that, a few squads quickly moved toward both sides.

“What about us?” The Mongols Base people looked at Xie Longyun and asked.

Xie Longyun turned back to give them a glance and shrugged, “You can do whatever you want, of course! I’m not your boss. Why are you asking me?”

“Alright…” On hearing her words, those people nodded and left.

Xie Longyun didn’t want those Mongols Base people to follow her, because she was now going to do something to that woman from All Beings Base. Letting those people know too much about her plan wouldn’t be a good thing, even though she could push them out and use them as human shields under critical situations.

After watching the Mongols Base people leave, Xie Longyun took a squad and left as well, following behind Lin Qiao and her people while leaving a squad in the cave.

While passing by a mist swirl coming down from the upper space, Lin Qiao sensed the pressure accumulated inside that tornado-like swirl and the flow of the energy within. Getting closer, she found the plants underneath the swirls especially tall and strong, twisting around.

She suspected that the mist, which was formed from energy, was what made the underground creatures go up to the earth’s surface. So, she intended to figure out where the energy was from and what generated it.

Along with the spinning mist swirl, the plants within at least a hundred meters in radius underneath it had been swaying from side to side like patients who had no drugs. Lin Qiao didn’t want to approach those plants, because they contained the most purple-red energy among all plants in the area. She guessed those plants might even be conscious and highly aggressive.

She and her people stopped nearby and landed on the roots of a giant plant, which was above the ground. The main body of the plant wasn’t visible; Lin Qiao could only see its especially strong roots partially come out of the ground, looking like an enormous worm.

The root under Lin Qiao’s feet was about three-meter thick. Therefore, she had a firm foothold on the root and looked tiny in comparison.

That area was miles away from the cave. Lin Qiao extended her sensations but detected no animals in that area, only plants. Those plants weren’t easy to deal with though.

“Bee… Bee…” Soon after Lin Qiao and her people stopped moving, a slight but weird noise was heard, and then a long and narrow dark figure darted out from behind them as it launched an attack.

“Watch out!” Lin Qiao shouted out loud before the others realized what was happening. In the meantime, she turned around and raised an arm to release a stream of black fire to wrap that dark figure up.

“Hiss…” The dark figure immediately shrank back when Lin Qiao’s dark fire touched it.

It was swift, but Lin Qiao still saw it clearly.

It was a tree root, a very strong tree root!

As Lin Qiao let out the shout, the others quickly scattered and looked around vigilantly.

“There are mutated plants. Be careful!” Lin Qiao warned the others after getting a clear vision of that dark figure.

As the tree root drew back, the area again fell into quietness. However, the quietness delivered an obviously tense atmosphere.

Lin Qiao was also looking around. The plant that she and her people were standing on contained the weakest purple energy among all the plants in the area. That was why she led her people to land there. Therefore, the plant which launched the attack just now was not the one they had their feet on.

As they were looking around alertly, that weird kind of noise was heard again, this time from all directions. “Bee… Bee…”

In the next second, a series of swishing noises could be heard. Along with the noises, countless dark figures came at Lin Qiao and her people.

Those dark figures moved so fast that the people couldn’t even see them clearly. They launched surprise attacks like snakes ambushing their prey in grasses. It was almost impossible to defend against them effectively.

Thankfully, Lin Qiao’s people had all been staying highly vigilant. Before those tree roots made any sound, they had already been preparing for the attack. And when the attack was launched, they all managed to react in time.

However, the superpowers they automatically released failed to deliver any effects on those dark figures!

Duan Juan had earth power. She landed on the ground and squatted, pressing both hands on the ground. Following her movement, a half-meter-thick earth wall rose before her to shield her against the dark figure which was coming at her.

Bang! In no time, the dark figure broke the earth wall and came straight toward her. Hence, she had no choices but to leap away and dodge.

Puff! The dark figure fiercely poked into the spot where she was squatting in and sank one or two meters deep into the ground.

The mutated plant grew in the earth. Therefore, Duan Juan’s earth power could barely cause it any difficulty.

The ground in that area wasn’t composed of hard rock like the ground in the other areas which Lin Qiao and her people had been before. The earth in that place was special, with a low density. It was much harder than the soil on the earth’s surface, but still relatively soft. Otherwise, Duan Juan might not even be able to release her power, let alone create a half-meter-thick earth wall.

However, to create that earth wall, she had to consume three times more energy than what was normally required.

Even she, a level-five superpower possessor, failed to block the dark figure’s attack. So, Li Hongsheng and the others under her command, who were only at level-four, could only dodge.

Right at that moment, a red figure suddenly descended from the air.

“Meow!” The red big cat swooped down and accurately caught a dark figure that was launching an attack before biting on it.
