Chapter 47: The Right Target
This animal is roughly similar in size to an ordinary brown bear, but has a body structure similar to that of a cheetah.
If this guy were randomly placed in a natural environment in the future world, Carl believed that it would definitely become the top of the local food chain.
But such an obviously very strong creature was trapped on the ground by a few ordinary-looking vines and dragged along, unable to even utter a scream.
There is definitely something wrong with these vines covering the ground!
After confirming this, while tracking the dragged animals, Karl also threw out several phantom knives and shot them at the vines on the ground.
As a result, facing the sharp blade, these vines were completely cut off without exception. On the surface, there was no resistance or intention to attack Karl, who was not too far from the ground.
So what exactly is the principle behind these things?
Being able to capture and drag such a ferocious beast around, but having no response to its own attacks, is a huge problem.
Or maybe I didn’t activate the hunting mechanism of these vines.
Or maybe they are intelligent and know that they cannot afford to offend Karl!
Thinking of this, Karl's originally not very good expression frowned again.
It is impossible for me to foolishly descend to the ground to touch these things and use my own safety to verify their actual situation.
You must know that this is the earth during the period when psychic powers have absolute dominance. If you can withstand these vines, you are fine, but if you can't, you will be like a fool delivering food to others.
Thinking like this, the spiritual energy in Carl's body once again divided into part and transformed into the power of dreams. In the blink of an eye, what he learned from the Burning Foreign Officer Herbert was used again.
The flamethrower was built in his hand, and when Carl activated it, he began to burn the vines below with flames.
Unfortunately, even though the surrounding trees were ignited by Karl's attack, the vines crawling on the ground did not appear to be on fire at all.
Fire cannot harm them.
"Tsk..."
Faced with this impasse, Karl was really helpless.
Sharp weapons can cut it directly, but flames cannot damage it at all. The properties of this vine are truly amazing.
Immediately, Karl gave up trying to test the vines, and began to catch up with the animal that was dragged away by the vines.
Even if I don't have the means to directly destroy them yet, as long as I follow the captured prey, I can at least find something different.
Giving up something that has no visible results is a rational choice that normal people would make.
Just like this, the night time passed by minute by minute, and Karl's catching up work was also proceeding in an orderly manner.
The speed of the vines dragging the prey was not slow, but it was still unable to compete with Carl's flying speed, so he quickly caught up with the guy, then hung from a relatively high position behind and followed him all the way.
Maintaining the way of chasing each other, almost a quarter of an hour later, the scene ahead became different.
It probably broke through a certain depth limit. Starting from this position, the soil inside did not grow any natural forest vegetation at all.
Here, there are only dense vines covering the ground, which looks very much like the atmosphere in a horror movie when the boss is about to appear.
And the scene is obviously not very friendly.
Subconsciously, Karl looked up at the sky.
From this position, the night sky above his head has become no longer directly observable. This is because the ether in the air shows a special distribution pattern, which completely isolates the world below the pit from the world above.
At this time, the space where Karl was located seemed to be a magical realm completely separated from reality.
"..."
"Is this what it is?"
Finally, a wry smile appeared on Karl's face.
Unexpectedly, in the trial of Shizhu, I could also bump into the personal realm of such an old friend.
Yes, this special structure is completely a consistent feature of the personal field.
It's just that compared to the personal field technology that will be fully developed and full of details in the future, the ether branch here is much more primitive and rough.
Apart from isolating and creating a new space, and then making the environment more comfortable for myself, this personal realm here is still in its infancy.
Maybe this is the starting point for those personal fields where a hundred flowers will bloom in the future.
Looking at the animals and vines that continued to be stripped off the abyss, Karl shook his head helplessly.
Assuming that you are a newbie who doesn't understand anything, you might still pursue it honestly. But in that case, the other party's purpose of creating this personal realm might actually be achieved.
It's a pity that since time traveling, Carl has personally dealt with too many personal areas, and he can even be said to have developed quite good experience.
So he waved his hands, and several rays of silver light immediately flew out of Karl's hands and shot straight to the surrounding ground.
These silver lights are naturally the [Decapitation Blade] simulated by the Phantom Knife.
And its destination is, of course, the magic node with the strongest ether around it.
As if something was leaking air, the surrounding environment began to change.
Although there are still no ordinary trees ahead, and the ethereal clouds overhead that block the night have not disappeared, the atmosphere in this space has indeed undergone some changes.
This personal realm has fallen apart due to Karl's destructive behavior.
It seems that no matter in the past or in the future, in terms of simply dealing with magic, [Decapitation Blade] will still exert its own characteristics as always.
Satisfied, Carl put away his strength and prepared to continue deeper into the pit.
As a result, at this moment, terrifying psychic pressure appeared in the depths of the pit.
As his personal realm was destroyed by Karl, something unprecedented appeared in his distance.
"..."
What is this!
Facing the sudden psychic fluctuation, Karl turned around and flew upwards without thinking.
His current purpose is very clear to escape.
The life that appeared here was too powerful. Just by feeling the opponent's irresistible spiritual energy, Karl knew that he was definitely no match.
Even if we compare the parasitic plants in the underground wooden city with this guy, the gap between the two is as vast as clouds and mud.
This is not a level, or even a dimensional opponent!
As for the existence that can possess this kind of power, there is no need to say more about who it is.
The sealed parasitic plant is really hiding here. Karl's exploration plan is just the beginning, but he bumps into the face of his ultimate goal.
Is this luck or misfortune?
