Chapter 626 Apocalypse Zombies 16
Shen Wenyu smiled, stepped on the gas, and turned the steering wheel to make a U-turn.
Seeing that they ignored him and left, the man hurriedly went back to inform everyone.
On the highway, unexpectedly, after driving for a while, the road ahead seemed to turn into a forest.
The once flat highway road was now split in the middle, with a towering tree growing from it, its branches and leaves lush and surrounded by plants.
Presumably sensing human presence, the tree's branches stretched out as if they were sentient, trying to drag the car over.
Shen Wenyu had already stepped on the brakes when she saw the situation, and now she unbuckled her seatbelt and said, "Everyone get out of the car."
Seeing this, the two of them reacted just as quickly as she did, unbuckled their seatbelts and opened the car doors.
After the three closed the car door and stood on the ground, Shen Wenyu put the car into her spatial storage.
Throughout the journey, neither Qin Yanshi nor Shen Wenyu made any effort to conceal the fact that they possessed spatial abilities; both knew that the other did.
Countless tree branches came toward them, and the three immediately separated and drew their weapons.
If you ask why Shen Wenyu doesn't use her mental power to control the mutated cedar tree, it's because she feels that this tree is a good tool for Shen Fu to practice on.
This cedar tree has absorbed a lot of nutrients from other plants, and its level is very high, at least two or three levels higher than that of current superhumans.
Qin Yanshi's special ability couldn't control it, and Shen Wenyu wanted to make them feel a sense of crisis, so she joined in the attack.
The branches of the cedar tree are cut off and continue to grow, as if they have an infinite ability to grow.
Many other plant vines also began to attack them.
The three of them used their superpowers and weapons in combination to fight, which not only improved their physical skills but also their superpowers.
When the rest of the convoy arrived, the number of people increased.
Someone was caught off guard and got tangled in the tree branch, hanging there. Shen Wenyu saw this and used his mental power to attack the branch.
The moment the branch broke, the bound man, who was quite agile, quickly used the momentum to roll to the ground as he fell from the air, thus avoiding breaking his bones.
Seeing several people in the group being hung up, Shan Yun frowned: "This can't go on. No matter how much we cut down this tree, it'll never end."
While he was rescuing his teammates, he was still thinking of a solution.
"Captain, I'll try to get closer to the main trunk," Yunxi said.
She has wind-based abilities, giving her more room to hide than others.
Seeing that everyone was about to exhaust their superpowers and physical strength, she simply stopped hesitating and charged forward.
Seeing her rushing forward recklessly, Shan Yun shouted, "Yunxi, don't be impulsive! This tree is of a very high level. It's dangerous for you to get close to it rashly."
Yunxi has already gone halfway, so there's no reason for her to turn back.
Shen Wenyu was originally standing in the spot closest to the main trunk, but when she saw someone move to the opposite side of her position, she paid some attention to them.
Shen Fu and Qin Yanshi were not far behind her. Both of them had almost exhausted their supernatural abilities and were just chopping tree branches with their knives.
Yunxi didn't stop; she took every opportunity to keep rushing forward.
Just as she reached the tree trunk and was about to attack, a blackish-green gas suddenly spread out from the tree.
The gas made her feel uneasy, and as she was about to step back, she felt a wave of dizziness.
Before she could react, several branches wrapped around her body, and soon the deeper branches were stained with blood.
Seeing this, Shen Wenyu knew that the tree branch was sucking blood, and that if they didn't save the person soon, they would die.
She used her mental power to cut the branch off, and Yunxi instantly fell to the ground. The branch continued to grow, trying to continue sucking blood.
While using her mental power to continuously cut off tree branches, Shen Wenyu also moved closer to the main trunk.
She had only taken a few steps when a hand grabbed her arm and pulled her back, her back pressed against a warm chest.
"Don't go that way, that tree is poisonous. Let's find a way to retreat and take another route."
Qin Yanshi had also witnessed what had just happened. Seeing the dark green gas near the tree trunk, his intuition told him that it was very dangerous.
He didn't want to see Shen Wenyu take any risks, even though he sensed that she was still holding back some of her strength.
Although Shen Fu was unhappy with his handsy behavior towards A Yu, this was not the time to talk about it.
She rarely agreed with Qin Yanshi's suggestion: "Ayu, don't go over there, it's too dangerous. We can take a detour."
"Let me try. If it doesn't work, I'll do it your way."
Her original purpose was simply to train Shen Fu, and that's about it now.
While Qin Yanshi was busy dealing with the tree branches, Shen Wenyu released her and rushed forward.
Upon seeing this, Shen Fu called out loudly, "Ayu!"
She tried to follow, but several tree branches became entangled and blocked her way.
Because she was worried about Shen Wenyu, her attention was diverted, and she was almost injured by a branch that attacked her from the side. It was Chen Qin on the other side who pulled her back.
"Don't get distracted, focus."
Shen Fu wanted to retort to him, but remembering that he had saved her, she didn't say the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
After Shen Wenyu left, Qin Yanshi's expression turned somewhat grim, and his movements toward the tree branches blocking his path became increasingly fierce.
When Shen Wenyu reached the main trunk, he picked up Yunxi from the ground and threw her far away.
She used her energy to shield herself from the poisonous gas and the attacks from the branches, then sent a strand deep into the tree trunk to find the core, where she saw a dark green crystal.
Compared to the tiny crystal cores on zombies, which are only the size of a finger, this crystal core is as big as an egg.
Just as everyone was concentrating intently, barely managing to stay upright and not knowing when it would end, a loud bang was suddenly heard.
The branches that attacked them also quickly lost their vitality, falling to the ground as if they were just ordinary pieces of wood.
The other plants also instantly lost their luster; dealing with them was a piece of cake, and the problem was solved in no time.
Only then did everyone have a chance to look in the direction of the sound, and they saw a giant tree that had collapsed on the ground, with a slender figure standing next to it.
Although the figure was tiny and insignificant compared to the colossal tree, no one could ignore its power.
The mutated cedar tree that had left everyone in such a sorry state was dealt with by her just like that. Many people collapsed to the ground, too exhausted to even recover.
There were only two people who didn't have time to pay attention to anything else; Shen Fu and Qin Yanshi went to Shen Wenyu's side immediately.
Seeing that they didn't look too good when they looked at her, Shen Wenyu smiled and said, "I'm fine. Look at this crystal core."
She opened her palm, revealing a dark green crystal core the size of an egg, containing what appeared to be abundant energy.
"Ayu, please don't be so impulsive next time."
Shen Fu couldn't bear to say anything in the end, and only pulled her aside to give her some advice.
As for the crystal core and such, they are nothing compared to Ayu's safety.
Qin Yanshi was unusually silent at this moment. He was still feeling a little uncomfortable because his emotions had fluctuated so much just now.
