The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 103
Chapter 103 Variant Odd Flowers
Yifan and Ji Ruoxue transformed into two streaks of black and white light and quickly headed towards the top of the mountain.
Various ferocious mutated beasts appeared one after another in this small mountain that stretched for tens of kilometers. Most of these mutated beasts were beasts, with cats and dogs as the most numerous. They gathered from all directions towards the neon rays.
At the same time, on the top floor of a high-end hotel in C City, a fair-skinned woman with blood eyes was shouting something at her strange companions. Suddenly, a neon light like a rocket shot into the sky. It was like a dream, extremely beautiful, and extremely unreal.
This dream-like neon pillar of light shot dozens of meters, or even hundreds of meters high! The blood-eyed woman was stunned, as if she was lost in thought…
“Roar …!” The blood-eyed woman suddenly roared and pointed at the red light.
“Roar … Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!” One of the big black-skinned creatures beside her suddenly roared, as if it was responding to a woman with blood-eyed eyes. Then, this black-skinned creature actually disappeared into the night, and then a few zombies also disappeared below.
At the military base in C City.
Zhou Xin, Qiangzi, and Wang Yang were already practicing their martial arts outside the courtyard of their camp, sweating like rain. This was their tradition, and they had never lost it. Take Wang Yang for example. After becoming an evolver, ever since Yifan began to train them and teach them martial arts, they began to practice their martial arts.
Wang Yang swung his sword 5,000 times a day from all angles. The rest of the training was still completed. He punched, kicked, and every kind of training was completed in full. In the training of the fast sword, he had extremely high requirements for himself, and he was also extremely persistent.
Qiangzi practiced with his staff vigorously. Zhou Xin’s bowstring was as cheerful as music, and the arrows were like rain. Opposite it, Zhang Liang closed his eyes and stood. The space around his body seemed to have frozen. The arrows shot into his mental energy mimicry net, like metal with great resistance to archery. However, he lost his kinetic energy when he rushed forward a few inches.
Zhang Liang grabbed the arrows with his mimicry. Then, the arrows shot back at Zhou Xin very quickly with Zhang Liang’s crossbow. Zhou Xin, on the other hand, swam through the rain of arrows like a floating dragon. It seemed that they were practicing with each other.
Apart from the two members standing guard, the rest of the team members were all practicing. Each of them seemed to be crazy. Some were practicing alone, while others were practicing in pairs.
Under the starry night sky, as they were practicing, a neon pillar of light shot into the sky like a rocket launcher, causing everyone to be shocked. Qiangzi, Zhang Liang, Zhou Xin, Wang Yang, and the rest of the team immediately gathered together.
Zhou Xin even immediately activated the Vertical Eye Hawkeye skill. Unfortunately, it was night. Although he was a Third Grade Evolution and had a certain night vision ability, his vision range at night was only about one kilometer, and he hadn’t discovered anything at all.
The few of them quickly discussed.
Zhang Liang said, “Zhou Xin, how is it? Have you found anything?”
Zhou Xin smiled bitterly, “I was also in a hurry. I forgot that it was night, so what could I discover?”
Qiang Zi said, “Then what should we do now? Boss and Ji Ruoxue have gone out.”
Wang Yang said, “I feel that the light just now has something to do with Yifan and the others.”
‘”That’s right,” Zhang Liang said. “I also feel that even if it didn’t matter before, with Yifan’s temperament, he would definitely go back and see what this light is. This is a crucial period. You haven’t forgotten about today’s broadcast, right? Perhaps some ruins have appeared.”
Qiangzi immediately said excitedly, “What nonsense! We’ll all move out immediately. If we’re too late, we’ll be robbed first. That would be a huge loss! This is a relic! That propaganda minister on the radio is talking about a treasure trove!”
Zhou Xin immediately objected, “Send out your fart! If you rashly go like this, what if something happens? I think we should send two speed-type evolvers to take a look at the situation and bring a signal gun.”
Hearing Zhou Xin’s words, Zhang Liang’s eyes lit up. “Zhou Xin is right, but the two speed evolvers are probably not enough. Since we see this pillar of light, it means that the higher-ups of the military must also see it. Therefore, they will definitely make a move.”
Zhou Xin excused himself again, “If that’s the case, Wang Yang and I will take a trip, let alone Yifan. Even if Yifan isn’t there, it shouldn’t be a problem for Wang Yang and I to protect ourselves.”
Wang Yang’s eyes shone with divine light, and he was already eager to try. He immediately said, “That’s right, Zhou Xin and I are both speed-type. There shouldn’t be any problem protecting ourselves. Perhaps we can even hold one or two fat sheep in our hands.”
Zhang Liang immediately said, “Alright, the situation is urgent now. There’s no time to discuss it carefully. I’ll leave the beam of light to the two of you. The military has me and Qiangzi. It’s just a training session. You don’t have to worry about it.”
Zhou Xin and Wang Yang didn’t even have the slightest bit of ink left. They immediately transformed into two streaks of light and sped towards the direction where the light pillar flashed outside the military base in C City.
Military base, Team Zhao’s office.
Chief Zhao said, “Zhiyuan, did you see that neon pillar just now?”
Wang Zhiyuan: “Of course, I’ve already sent out both teams we have.”
Team Zhao: “Do you think that kid named Zhu Yifan will go?”
Wang Zhiyuan said, “I will definitely go. However, if it is a ruin, I don’t think he can eat it alone. So we are the two teams of elites.”
“Well, that’s the only way. Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you. Keep me informed of any situation.” Chief Zhao waved his hand.
Military base, Zhou Weiguo’s office.
Zhou Weiguo looked at the new Thorned Snake Squad in front of him. This was his last possession. This sudden incident immediately reminded him of the ruins. Now that everyone knew about the ruins, Old Man Zhao and Huang Haibin would definitely send people over.
Therefore, unless he gave up this chance to explore the ruins, he would have to go all out.
Zhou Weiguo straightened his body and retracted his thoughts. He said to the Golden Ring Snake, “I’ll give you full authority over this squad of 15 people. Don’t disappoint me again. Otherwise, you’ll know the consequences.”
The Golden Ring Snake saluted, “Yes!”
Military base, Huang Haibin office.
In front of Huang Haibin were 20 evolvers, all of whom were fully armed.
Huang Haibin cleared his throat and said, “Wolfhound Squad, I’ll leave it to you this time. It’s very likely that you will become the first squad to enter the ruins in C City. I’ll leave everything to you. Don’t disappoint me.”
The three major factions of the military, including Yifan, Zhou Xin, Wang Yang, Zhang Liang, and the others under Qiangzi, all thought that this red light was the model that the ruins opened. In fact, they were all wrong.
Of course, the first humans to arrive at the neon pillar were Yi Fan and Ji Ruoxue.
With their speed, they had already arrived near the location of the neon pillar…
Yi Fan stared at it and couldn’t help but say, “Tsk tsk! It’s indeed a lobster flower. I must get it. This time, I’ve really made a fortune!”
At a glance, the two of them saw a strange plant that emitted a multicolored neon light and curled mist standing on top of the mountain newspaper. It looked extremely mysterious.
Look at that plant, flowers under the green leaves, flower stalk like a green silk thread, shockingly is the common name “green silk hanging lobster” lobster flowers.
There are two tendrils on the head of the shrimp. There were patterns on the shrimp’s body. The flowers were hanging under the leaves, vigorous and beautiful. The breeze was full of vigor, like a living shrimp.
The so-called lobster flower was actually a kind of nickname. This kind of flower was actually an annual herbal flower of the genus Impatiens. It was the general name of more than ten kinds of immortals, such as the South Lake Impatiens, the Xijiang Impatiens, the Golden Phoenix, and so on.
Lobster flowers are named after their shrimp-like shape. They are usually found in the forest, shrubs, and ditches between 500 and 1200 meters above sea level. As a result, they are widely distributed. The Xianggui Mountain Range and Wulinyuan area of the South Lake are rich in lobster flowers. Of course, these are the lobster flowers from before the apocalyptic mutation.
At this moment, Yi Fan and Ji Ruoxue saw that the mutated lobster flower was the mutated lobster flower. In a sense, he was no longer an ordinary lobster flower, because it had medicinal value. After mutating, it had already reached the level of a heaven-defying flower.
This lobster flower has a straight rhizome, about a meter tall, unbranched, with five-colored stripes on the stem, large lower nodes, alternate leaves, broad or narrowly lanceolate, acuminate apex, sharp teeth on the edge, wedge-shaped base, translucent like green emerald.
The front of the leaf was dark green, the back was light green, and the veins were clear. It was like a modern work of art carved from jade.
The main stem has nine pedicels from bottom to top. The pedicels are solitary in the upper axils of the leaves and are obviously shorter than the leaves. The petals are about three to four petals. The pedicels are bright, colorful, bright red, red like flames, golden yellow, yellow like amber, purple like grapes, and the nine flowers are dazzling. From afar, they look like neon lights.
The combination of flag petals and wing petals of the flower was like the head of a shrimp, and the lip petals were like the body of a shrimp. The shrimp’s body emitted some irregular multicolored multicolored light. The base of the flower was extended and curved inward or downward like the tail of a shrimp. The multicolored flowers were suspended under the leaves, and they jumped about in the breeze, looking like live shrimp.
Nine lobster flowers were as dazzling as nine neon lights in the night. This was something extraordinary. As the saying went, the blue silk five-glow lobster painting and the neon three-flashing phoenix immortal were talking about this mutated lobster flower.
This was the scene of the blue-silk five-glow lobster painting. After a while, the lobster flower would completely mature. The lobster flower bloomed like a divine bird bathed in fire. In his previous life, it was called the Fire Phoenix Immortal, meaning a divine bird that was reborn like a phoenix bathed in fire.
That was why there was the second half of this sentence, “Phoenix Fairy with three flashes of neon.”
Azure Silk Five Clouds Drawing Lobster and Neon Three Flickering Phoenix Fairy were extremely apt to summarize the scene before and after this heaven-defying flower bloomed. After the lobster flower bloomed, experts in their previous lives called them Fire Phoenix Fairy or Phoenix-defying Fairy.
However, Yifan liked to call it the Phoenix-Defying Immortal, because Yifan was looking forward to its heaven-defying and miraculous effects.
Yifan and Ji Ruoxue hid in the grass. Both of them pushed their spiritual energy to their limits and easily sensed the countless powerful Third Grade auras around them. However, strangely enough, these beasts seemed to be hiding in the darkness as well.
Ji Ruoxue whispered, “Senior Yifan, there are so many Third Grade mutated beasts around. Should we go first and take the flowers and leave?”
Yifan smiled bitterly, “Silly girl, if you can take the flowers, you can leave. I already went there. The flowers aren’t ripe yet. It’s useless to pick them now.”
Ji Ruoxue said, “Then what should we do?”
Yifan: “Wait …!”
Ji Ruoxue said, “What’s the use of this flower? It’s worth taking such a big risk to hide here.”
