The tree demon's elusive appearance meant that Meng Fan was unable to pinpoint its exact location. He could only kick away the cut tree vines on the ground, and then observed the environment again.
Several other people were shocked and took the initiative to get close to each other, surrounding each other, and they all showed extremely nervous expressions.
After a short moment of silence, Sun Ling took the lead and said, "What just happened was..."
"It's a vine, a plant with a well-developed root system." Meng Fan didn't look back and continued to observe the surroundings.
Sun Ling was stunned because of Meng Fan's answer.
Of course she knew that the thing was a vine. After all, Sun Ling was neither blind nor blind. In addition, the severed vine was placed on the ground, so anyone with a sight could clearly see what it was.
But Sun Ling didn't understand why a perfectly good tree vine would attack her for no reason.
Sun Ling couldn't understand, and the others were even more confused. After a period of suppressed silence, Ma Yang's complaint sounded again in the corridor,
"What the hell? It turns out it's just a vine. I thought there was a real monster!"
"Trees and vines are real, and so are monsters."
Meng Fan didn't find any trace of the tree demon for a long time, so he stopped searching, came back to his senses, looked at Ma Yang expressionlessly and said, "There should be a very scary monster hidden behind these tree vines.
Unfortunately, this guy may have set his sights on us now."
"Are you...are you kidding?"
Ma Yang suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth severely and said with an unnatural expression.
In his limited knowledge, tree vines are tree vines and monsters are monsters. How could they be confused with each other?
However, Li Dong and Zhang Yang chose to believe it. They suddenly realized after hearing this, "No wonder we haven't found out what the monster looks like. It turns out that it grows inside the wall and uses its developed root system to attack us..."
"This is impossible!"
Ma Yang was confused and turned to look at the two of them and said, "How could the tree vine attack us? This is simply a fantasy!"
"Whether this is a fantasy or not, you should know it yourself. After all, you were the first to be attacked just now."
Meng Fan frowned, not wanting to waste energy on such a boring argument, and immediately interrupted everyone's conversation coldly, "The problem now is not to discuss whether these vines are weird or not, but to find a way to make them stand out."
Protect yourself from attacks. Don't blame me for not reminding you that the attack power of these vines is not weak. Once entangled by them, ordinary people will basically be sentenced to death."
Sun Ling fully agreed with Meng Fan's statement and quickly said, "Then what should we do? Should we retreat first?"
"I'm afraid that thing won't let us go easily."
Meng Fan laughed evilly, shook his head, and looked at the corridor behind him, with a sharp cold light flashing in his eyes.
Although the tree demon missed the attack and immediately retracted the tree vines back to the wall, Meng Fan's intuition told Meng Fan that this thing probably hadn't gone far yet and was probably hiding in an unknown place, silently observing his every move.
If we lead them to retreat now, those weird tree vines will inevitably appear again as soon as possible to intercept people.
"Then, what should we do..."
Li Dong and Zhang Yang's expressions suddenly changed, and Ma Yang was so frightened that he retreated to Sun Ling again, seemingly not knowing what to do.
In response to this, Meng Fan smiled indifferently, stretched and said, "We are here, of course we must continue to search for medicines. As for the tree demon, since we can't avoid it, we are ready to fight. There are so many people here, as long as we
If everyone cooperates sincerely, we won’t necessarily be afraid of it.”
Although the tree demon is weird, it is just a creature between the first and second levels. Its actual combat power should be far less than the second-level zombies that Meng Fan once faced.
As long as all five people stay together and help each other, safety can still be guaranteed.
It's a pity that except for Meng Fan, several others are obviously lacking in confidence, especially Ma Yang. As soon as this guy heard about the monster, he immediately hid behind Sun Ling. His cowering look didn't look like a man at all.
.
"Let's go, let's continue walking towards the place where the medicines are stored. I believe that thing will come back sooner or later."
Meng Fan ignored the expressions of these people, held the long knife in his backhand, and continued walking along the corridor.
The space in the underground warehouse was not very large. After walking for about two minutes, Meng Fan had arrived at the end of the corridor.
What appeared in front of us was a heavy iron door with a coded lock. Unless they were internal employees of the hospital, no one knew the code.
It's a pity that the apocalypse has lasted for so long, and the internal employees of those hospitals have long since died or escaped.
Meng Fan walked to the code lock, squinted his eyes for a while, and then said to himself, "The hospital's security measures are quite strong. The six-digit encrypted code lock cannot be opened by ordinary people if they don't know the code."
Open this door."
Sun Ling and others became anxious again, and said with an anxious look, "Damn it, we took such a big risk to come in. Our destination is clearly in front of us, but we are blocked by a door. What should we do?"
"Don't worry, although I don't know the password, I do know another way to open the door."
Meng Fan shook his head, took a breath slowly, then took two steps back, silently raised the long knife, fixed his eyes on the combination lock switch, and then suddenly let out a low shout.
Whoosh!
The blade slashed down, spun around in the air, and instantly hit the switch of the combination lock.
The long and narrow blade was not only full of tension, but its texture was also extremely tough. With a flash of fire, the outer structure of the combination lock was roughly split open with a knife, exposing the metal components inside.
But even the door lock made of metal could not withstand the furious slashing of the long knife. With a sharp and harsh friction sound, the blade had embedded itself in the door lock and created a ferocious cut.
The next moment, the sound of metal friction became sharper and harsher. Meng Fan pressed down his arm and continued to inject power into the long knife. Finally, the metal door lock also erupted with a "click" whine and was forcibly destroyed!
"Oh my god..."
Instantly, a gasp of air came from behind Meng Fan.
The toughness of this combination lock is not comparable to ordinary materials. Even if a dozen adults take turns carrying axes, it will probably take a long time to destroy it.
However, Meng Fan was able to completely destroy the metal structure with just a long knife. His performance was so inhuman that people had to wonder where the long knife came from.
Ma Yang swallowed and couldn't help but look at the black long knife in Meng Fan's hand, "What kind of material is this weapon of yours made of? Why is it so..."
"The door has been opened, act quickly."
Meng Fan did not want to pay attention to this guy, and spoke coldly, interrupting Ma Yang's inquiry, then took a step forward and reached out to push the door open.
