The base itself is trying its best to touch the true meaning of this new world.
Tang Feng accepted the order to explore the Seven Trees, which was also a very important task! After all, the Seven Trees are beyond conventional mutant plants. In addition to their unpredictable and strange abilities, more importantly, their fruits can
Let the human side become stronger quickly!
Just imagine, if the base can master a large number of 'Awakening Fruit', then esper users will not be so rare. As the main force for survival in the end of the world, the greater the number of esper users, the more beneficial it will be to the base's survival!
But the Awakening Fruits grow in the canopies of the seven big trees. Except for Tang Feng who has the ability to get close to them, none of the other secret teams sent by Xie to carry out the mission have succeeded.
But Tang Feng didn't expect that even though he had been very vigilant, he still fell into the trap unknowingly!
By the time he reacted, it was already too late. He had gone too deep and his body was completely out of control!
Looking at his swollen belly, you can tell that Tang Feng has eaten a lot during this time. He is fatter than last time. His face, which was as handsome as a knife before, looks less rounded.
Strangers are approaching in a hurry.
"In other words, you have been eating in the past two days?" Jiang Yi couldn't help but shudder when listening to Tang Feng's description.
Eating is a happy act, but when you become uncontrollable and force yourself to eat non-stop, and the food is not delicious, then eating becomes a painful torture.
The fact that Tang Feng was able to persist for such a long time in this situation, until they found him, must be said to have a lot of luck in it...
"By the way, Brother Feng, do you know what is going on with this big tree? What is the condition of the bags on these big trees?" Jiang Yi pointed to the big bags on the trunk not far away, with a fearful expression on his face.
!
The same goes for Tang Feng, even more fearful than Jiang Yi: "You should already know what's inside!"
Jiang Yi nodded, each big bump on the root of the tree represented a mutated life form.
They are wrapped under the bark of the tree, and are pierced into the body by transparent tubes. It is obvious that something is being absorbed by the tree. I just don’t know what will happen to these lives after they are sucked dry...
Hearing Jiang Yi's question, Tang Feng's expression suddenly changed a lot. He looked up at Jiang Yi and said solemnly: "You saw it too, because you can understand that this is the power of this seven-big tree!"
Jiang Yi subconsciously raised his head and looked at the huge tree shadow hidden in the darkness, his heart also cast a shadow. Tang Feng's voice continued: "Seven big trees 'Gluttony'! Any life form that comes close to this big tree"
, they will overeat out of control, and under this control, their bodies seem to have no upper limit, and they can eat several times more food than usual. It will also speed up the absorption rate, allowing them to accumulate a large amount of food in a short period of time.
of fat!”
Jiang Yi listened to Tang Feng's description, which corresponded one by one with what they had discovered during the day. A big tree that made people eat fat quickly was obviously not because of its 'kindness'!
But it has other purposes!
Tang Feng seemed to have recalled some horrific memories, his face became extremely pale, and finally his voice was trembling: "When your absorption has reached the limit and the fat accumulated in your body has reached the upper limit, your consciousness will move forward without restriction."
Gluttony' gets closer, and the closer you get, the shallower your self-consciousness will be, until you are completely deprived of consciousness! Once you are controlled by the big tree, you clearly understand everything, but you can only watch yourself actively clinging to the big tree.
The face on the tree burrowed under the bark of the big tree, allowing the tree to start sucking the fat from its own body..."
"I'm afraid it's not just fat that's being sucked!" Jiang Yi interjected, and Tang Feng nodded with a wry smile: "That's right! Once controlled, the final result will be that only a complete piece of skin is left after being sucked by the tree.
Even the bones in the body will be melted and absorbed by this big tree!"
Even when Jiang Yi heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and look fearfully at the huge tree roots crisscrossing all around!
This big tree looks more terrifying than the previous one. At least that one only makes people desire and change their thoughts. But this big tree not only changes people's living habits, but also covets everything about living beings.
Obviously, absorbing these life forms will cause greater changes in the big tree. Maybe these people who are absorbed by the big tree to compensate for the impact are simply fertilizer for the big tree. It is precisely because there are continuous life forms taking the initiative to sacrifice themselves that the tree can survive.
Let this tree grow to such a huge size in a few months...
"Gluttony? It's very appropriate!" Jiang Yi thought of the name of the big tree in Tang Feng's mouth and felt that it fit its characteristics very well!
Not only can it affect the appetite of other creatures, but at the same time, it is not just a monster with an infinite appetite, it is quietly waiting for its prey to fall into its trap with its mouth wide open!
"This is the official code name given by the base!" Tang Feng also felt that using this word to define these seven trees was so appropriate!
Jiang Yi suddenly thought of it and asked, "Does the big tree we went to last time have a name? What is it called?"
Tang Feng knew which time Jiang Yi was asking. When he thought of it, he couldn't help but rub his still sore chin and stared at Jiang Yi with some resentment. Jiang Yi had hit him twice, but every time
Under the influence of the Seven Trees, he could only be beaten passively. Not only could he not resent Jiang Yi, but he had to thank Jiang Yi afterwards. This made Tang Feng, who had always suffered nothing, look at Jiang Yi with a deep look.
I don't know what he was thinking, but just when Jiang Yi felt a little cold on the back of his neck...
"Greed...the codename of that big tree is 'Greed'!"
Jiang Yi chewed on the word and couldn't help but laugh: "There is really a talent for naming in the base, and this name is very appropriate!"
The strange characteristic of that big tree is that it allows unlimited greed in the mind, even causing Jiang Yi and Tang Feng to have unlimited greed due to the effect of the 'Awakening Fruit', and they even did not hesitate to kill each other!
That is to say, Jiang Yi was mentally strong and suddenly woke up in time, otherwise only one of him and Tang Feng would survive that day and possess the 'Awakening Fruit' alone.
Even in order to keep the secret of the Awakening Fruit, even Haruto, Zhao Lin, and Song Rong who were resting under the tree at the time had to die!
After all, if Jiang Yi or Tang Feng really wanted to deal with them, they wouldn't even have a chance to escape from the Seven Trees! Looking at Jiang Yi's expression, Tang Feng's eyes flickered: "Don't you notice the difference between 'gluttony' and 'greed'?
Is there any connection?”
Jiang Yi was stunned: "Contact? What's the connection? These two big trees don't even have the same abilities. Although they are both one of the seven big trees, they should not be the same tree species!"
"Haha, it's nothing! After realizing that Jiang Yi really didn't find any connection between the two big trees, Tang Feng laughed without hesitation, and then he saw Tang Bing and the girls walking out with new equipment!
Although the conditions in the wild are simple and there is no way to create conditions, the girls still simply scrubbed their hands, feet and hair, making them feel much fresher!"
This made Zhang Yizhe look envious, and even felt that his body was extremely itchy now! Jiang Yi hurriedly waved to them: "Come here and warm yourself by the fire, don't get too cold!"
Tang Feng glanced at Jiang Yi. Everyone was a person with abilities. Although the weather was already very cold, it was not cold enough to cause a group of people with abilities to catch a cold!
But looking at Tang Bing's frozen hair, he couldn't help but point to the empty seat next to him distressedly: "Xiao Bing, sit here quickly, your hair has not been dried yet..."
What he got in exchange was a blank look from Tang Bing. Not only did he not go over, but he took Li Siyu and Aya to another fire to keep warm, and ignored him!
Tang Feng, who was looking straight at him, was stunned and at a loss! Jiang Yi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and couldn't suppress it.
Not guilty, they are the enemy brothers and sisters described by Tang Zhenghu. They obviously care about each other immensely, but their tendency to pinch each other when they meet has been deeply rooted in their nature!
No, after seeing that Tang Feng's life was not in danger, Tang Bing was happy to settle the score. Not only did he complain that Tang Feng had taken the risk of carrying out such a dangerous mission, but he also hated him for beating him up and even almost killing him!
In short, in Tang Bing's eyes, Tang Feng's current crime is simply a heinous crime and cannot be forgiven!
If Tang Feng wants to obtain Tang Bing's forgiveness, he may have to think of other ways...
