I’m Not a Badass

  Chapter 480 Root connection

  When Xue Yaxian said this, everyone couldn't help being surprised.

   "The road behind is also full of fruit trees?"

   "How is this possible? When we walked over just now, there was nothing abnormal at all. When exactly..."

   "Are these fruit trees alive and conscious? They deliberately wait for us to enter the range and block our back road?"

   "..."

   For a while, everyone was discussing, and everyone had a little bit of panic on their faces. After all, the back road was also surrounded by fruit trees, which meant that whether they were going forward or retreating, they had to step into the range of the fruit forest.

  Di Wenyi snorted coldly, like a thunderclap, interrupting everyone's discussion. She said coldly: "No matter how those fruit trees moved to the back to block the road, the current situation is that we must enter the range of this fruit forest, right?"

Yao Meizhen squeezed the long sword tightly, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that we have to go in. Everyone, stop taking chances. From the moment you enter this weird world, you must be mentally prepared to face danger all the time. A fluke will kill you."

  With a few people as role models, everyone quickly readjusted their mentality, moved forward cautiously, and stepped into the range of the fruit forest.

   rustle.

  Everyone approached the fruit trees one by one, and everyone couldn't help holding their breath. Just when they were ready for the fruit trees to suddenly explode and hurt people... nothing happened.

  The surrounding area is peaceful.

  Everyone was a little surprised, and tentatively walked forward for a certain distance. The fruit tree was motionless, as if it was really just an ordinary fruit tree, but no one present dared to approach it and pick the fruit from the tree to eat.

"Speed ​​up, let's rush over!" Xue Yaxian lowered her voice, everyone quickened their pace and rushed forward, while Mu Lengyue grabbed Bai Mufan's hand, almost pulling him to run, Bai Mufan stepped forward. He can barely keep up with his legs. After stepping into the road of cultivation, his physical fitness has gradually surpassed that of ordinary people, but it has not broken the limit of the human body. It will take a qualitative change after he formally breaks through to the realm of refining spirits.

   Just when everyone rushed halfway, one person suddenly slowed down, and the companion next to him couldn't help urging: "Hurry up, or you will be thrown off by the team!"

However, the man was unmoved, he just stared blankly at the nearest fruit tree, with an obsessed look on his face, and murmured: "You go first, leave me alone, I want to stay here... I want to taste these fruits before leaving."

"Do you know what I'm talking about? You don't want to live anymore?!" Her companion was anxious and wanted to force her away, but no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't pull her away. The man stood there as if his feet had taken root , and walked towards the fruit tree step by step, with a happy smile on his face, as if he saw something extremely beautiful.

The stop of this person seemed to cause a chain reaction, and gradually a second and third appeared in the line... More and more people also stopped, with obsessive expressions on their faces, and walked towards the two sides in a daze. The most weird thing about fruit trees is that the people next to them can't pull them!

Seeing this scene, the crowd didn't understand what happened, Xue Yaxian even came to her senses, she immediately held up the compass and released a stream of starlight to hang down, like a canopy covering the heads of the crowd, many people felt a little drowsy The brain became much clearer, and he couldn't help being frightened, and hurriedly stood within the starlight range of the compass, not daring to walk around.

Mu Lengyue kept staring at Bai Mufan closely, and found that his face was normal, so she couldn't help but feel relieved. It was a little late when she noticed something was wrong. At that time, she saw someone walking towards the fruit tree, and she felt a thump in her heart, worrying about Bai Mufan. Will be recruited, I didn't expect him to be completely unaffected.

  Bai Mufan actually stayed awake the whole time, and the space between his brows had that mysterious spiritual imprint sitting in it, so this little trick naturally couldn't trouble him.

But today he found that the spiritual imprint is too strong, it seems that it is not entirely a good thing, just now he didn't even notice that these fruit trees used the way of spiritual invasion to control others, just like being kicked by an ant, he didn't feel it at all, the force was too strong It's easy, if you noticed it earlier, you might be able to speak up to remind everyone that something is wrong.

Xue Yaxian said with a sullen face: "These fruit trees are good at the method of spiritual charm, and they seem to have been silent, but in fact, they have already been recruited from the moment we stepped into this fruit forest! I can't save those who have been completely charmed, I can only pull them back, even if I cut off my legs! As long as I can escape from here, I can find a pair of wood-type supernatural power masters from the teacher to use their methods to re-grow their legs. Already!"

Hearing this, the others gritted their teeth and stepped forward to forcefully pull those people, but found that they still couldn't pull them, so they cut off their legs ruthlessly, but after doing this, everyone immediately discovered a horrifying truth—these people In fact, the inside of the legs has been completely penetrated by thick tree roots!

  These roots came out of the ground silently, pierced directly from the soles of their feet into their legs, and then spread all the way up into their bodies, closely connected with their flesh and blood and even their internal organs!

This can also explain why they can't pull these people no matter how much they pull, their bodies have already been entangled and controlled by these tree roots, and they are closely connected with the earth, and the roots come from the surrounding fruit trees. It's spreading, it's only strange if you can pull it!

Someone tried to pull out a weapon to cut the roots connected to the legs. When the sharp blade cut on the roots, it made a sound like the sound of metal colliding, and sparks came out, but the roots were not damaged. Instead, they There were small gaps in the weapon in his hand, and he couldn't help showing a look of horror.

  Many people couldn't help but turn their eyes to Liaochen, the strongest in the team, for help. Liao Chen had been observing carefully from just now, but finally shook his head and said, "Sorry, I can't do anything about it. I can feel the aura of these benefactors, and they have been completely connected with those fruit trees. At this time, I forcibly took them away. Instead, they would simply die."

  The faces of Xue Yaxian and the others fluctuated, and finally made up their minds, gritted their teeth and said: "Let's go, the power of the compass won't last long, take this opportunity to leave this fruit forest!"

  Everyone could only give up on rescuing these people, and continued to run forward, and they stepped out of the range of this fruit forest in a short time.

  Xue Yaxian tentatively put away the compass, and sure enough there was no external spiritual force trying to control them, so she couldn't help but feel relieved, it should be safe here.
