Chapter 290: The Increasingly Dense Players
In the morning, two Tricycles were driving along the direction they had come from; the reason for returning along the same path was to look for the property left behind by the members of the Nine Platforms Immortal Group.
Originally, the others were not willing, but who told Zhao Yuxin to act like a spoiled child to Zhu Zhiquan? So, they turned back to take a look.
Along the way, everyone could clearly feel that the Plant Monsters along the route had increased, and both their desire to attack and their combat power had been significantly strengthened.
But the good news was that Zhao Yuxin had obtained a method to research plants that could increase physique from within these monsters, so she had ducked back into the research society to conduct research.
Seeing that Zhao Yuxin had no time to manage them now, Liu Feng leaned against Zhu Zhiquan and said, "Hey, buddy, just walking like this is both dangerous and has no gains. Why not listen to me and just turn around and head in another direction?"
Zhang Yu also hunched his body and came to Zhu Zhiquan's side, turned his head to glance at the research society to ensure Zhao Yuxin was not noticing them, and then chimed in, "He's right. You're a man after all, you can't be without a mind of your own, right?"
Zhu Zhiquan did not speak, just silently watching the direction of Zhao Yuxin. Seeing him so indecisive, both of them were spinning in circles with anxiety, urging Zhu Zhiquan to make a decision quickly.
But their conversation had long been heard clearly by Zhao Yuxin, and she also knew that Zhu Zhiquan was watching her, so she sent a message to Zhu Zhiquan: "Ajiu, if you also think what I'm doing is wrong, then listen to them."
Zhu Zhiquan opened the panel and looked, immediately speechless; he did not believe Zhao Yuxin would actually let him listen to the two of them.
Thus, Zhu Zhiquan ignored the two people persuading him, ordered Xuebao to continue returning along the original path, and went back into the carriage himself.
Liu Feng and Zhang Yu looked at each other, both shrugged, and returned to their vehicle to follow behind.
Watching Zhu Zhiquan be so obedient to Zhao Yuxin, Liu Feng couldn't help but click his tongue secretly: "This person is too timid; I bet someone like him wouldn't even dare to hide private money."
"Then do you dare to hide private money?" Zhang Yu asked with a smile from the driver's seat.
"Dare?" Liu Feng laughed disdainfully, "I wouldn't even have the thought of hiding private money, so how could I possibly have the guts to hide it?"
"Pfft~ Baby, tell me, how did you manage to say such cowardly words in such an arrogant tone?"
………………
The young couple followed behind, chatting and laughing all the way, with most of the danger resolved by Zhu Zhiquan alone.
Just at this moment, greenish Dust appeared inexplicably in their vicinity.
After this Dust appeared, the plants planted in the two vehicles kept shaking their bodies; as Gelina and Xuebao, whose true forms were just plants, both felt a ball of fire burning in their hearts.
"Hm? This is... has something gone wrong with my research again?"
Zhao Yuxin watched the plants she had created shaking incessantly, and her first reaction was to think that something was wrong on her end, but when she saw the snake-vine creeper also twisting its Vines in pain, and heard the commotion in the Plantation, she immediately furrowed her brows.
"No, this should be the reason for the Dust. Have we entered the Dust?" Zhao Yuxin had no time to think too much; she pulled open the carriage window and said to Zhu Zhiquan, "Ajiu, run! There is a big problem here!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhiquan immediately turned around and accelerated to leave this place. The young couple saw Zhu Zhiquan suddenly turn around and drive so fast that their bodies couldn't stop trembling, so they also turned around and followed behind them.
Zhang Yu poked his head out and called out, "Hello~ Zhao Yuxin, what did you say to him? Are you planning to give up on looking for that group's inheritance?"
Zhao Yuxin had no time to explain; instead, she retreated into the carriage and quickly entered the Plantation. As soon as she entered, she saw Gelina and Xuebao rolling on the ground in pain.
"Baobao, what's wrong with you all!" Zhao Yuxin sprinted to Xuebao's side and knelt down, her face full of anxious sweat.
"Mm~ mm~ mm..." Xuebao grabbed Zhao Yuxin's thigh tightly, acting like a child and acting spoiled in Zhao Yuxin's arms.
"It's it, it's... it's the phan... phantom I saw, I... feel he... he is... watching me!" Gelina, who was to the side, answered.
Hearing this, Zhao Yuxin's eyes narrowed, and she immediately stepped forward and asked, "Is it the phantom you saw when you went to scout and were accidentally caught in the Dust?"
Gelina used all her strength to nod at Zhao Yuxin. Zhao Yuxin then stood up and murmured, "World Boss, it really is you!"
"Baobaos, hold on! Mom has already brought the antidote for you!" Having said that, Zhao Yuxin ran to the laboratory and took out a bottle containing a brownish potion from a cabinet.
"This was made after Zhu Zhiquan brought back samples before the first Dust ended. Although it is still in the experimental stage, I hope this potion can be useful."
Zhao Yuxin muttered as she flicked the potion bottle twice to ensure the concentration of the potion was uniform, then took out a syringe and drew all the potion inside.
After drawing the potion, she flicked the syringe twice more, and after gently expelling some air, she put on the needle cap and sprinted toward the Plantation.
When Zhao Yuxin returned to the Plantation, Xuebao's mood had already become irritable, constantly attacking the ground with a painful expression on its face.
"Xuebao!!!" Zhao Yuxin took two quick steps to Xuebao's side, "Gelina, can you help me control it?"
Hearing Zhao Yuxin's request, Gelina endured the pain and released Vines to control Xuebao.
Outside the vehicle, the Dust outside constantly gathered together, forming larger Dust, chasing behind Zhu Zhiquan's Tricycles like a Sandstorm.
Other non-plant type monsters saw this scene and started running again, just to be able to stay away from this huge "Sandstorm".
Zhang Yu posted the entire process of the Dust forming to the World Channel, triggering quite a bit of controversy.
Huahua: "Damn! So this is how this thing is formed. I wonder which player is going to start their escape journey again~"
Xihai Langzi: "The person above might be the one starting their escape journey soon."
King of Game Kings: "I think it's okay, at least one can hide on a giant monster to prevent hitting trees because one's own technique is too trashy."
……………………
Zhang Yu watched the comments of various players on the World Channel, while the surrounding monsters began to gather, forming a huge beast tide.
Relying on his Tricycle having an Impact Cone, Zhu Zhiquan forcibly rammed a path through the beast tide; for slightly larger monsters, he used the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon to clear the way, just to be able to quickly get away from the Dust behind.
Liu Feng drove his Tricycle following behind Zhu Zhiquan and them, gradually moving away from the Dust in the rear.
Many monsters that were not fast enough were either killed by the crazed Plant Monsters or caught up by the Dust, gradually turning into a part of the Dust.
And at the forefront of the beast tide, perhaps driven by the previous two times of Dust, the probability of players meeting increased, leading many fleeing players to fight fiercely to snatch a monster that was large enough and fast enough.
There were also those who, relying on their driving skills, ran hard in front of the beast herd, as if the complex tree roots on the ground were like flat land to them.
At this moment, the entire World Channel was filled with negative emotions because this time, the coverage of the Dust seemed to have enveloped all the players.
