Just when the man was about to fall in, a silver light flashed through the air.
Immediately, the pitcher plant-shaped monster was slashed at both ends, and the liquid in the cylindrical structure was scattered on the ground, flowing everywhere.
As for the plant itself that was cut in half, it naturally struggled a few times and then lay motionless on the ground.
It looked like he couldn't survive.
"This...what is this!"
Facing this sudden silver light, the saved man asked blankly.
But what happened next once again surpassed his understanding.
The silver light did not disappear after being injured, but continued to wreak havoc on the plants.
Because they had to surround these five humans, the pitcher plant-shaped plants were originally placed next to each other.
The result of such a position is that the killing efficiency of the silver light is greatly accelerated.
Under the action of a series of silver chains, they were all cut in half in less than a minute. The unlucky ones were even cut into pieces of pizza, and fell to the ground without any chance of fighting back.
In this way, broken plant remains were scattered all over the place, and the liquid flowing out of them soaked every inch of the soil.
It was in such an environment that Karl's figure suddenly stepped on it, causing quite a splash.
"..."
Because Carl finally stopped his killing activities, these five humans wearing leaves could clearly see his figure.
The person who slaughtered plants with such efficiency was actually a man, a man who did not live in symbiosis with plants.
This is a joke!
Faced with this situation, they who were on the run just now never thought that they would be rescued by humans.
The man in front of him was wearing strange clothes [modern textiles], holding two sharp knives made of metal in his hands, and the magic power [psionic energy] all over his body was strange and terrifying.
Is this really human?
The leading man couldn't help but have this thought in his mind.
Then, he cautiously said to Karl:
"This...sir?"
"Thank you for your help?"
"ha......"
Looking at the other party's cautious look, how could Karl not see what he was worried about.
There is no doubt that the killing he just committed scared others.
With a wave of his hands, two [Decapitating Blades] disappeared into the air, and a gentler expression appeared on Karl's face.
"Humans help each other, you're welcome."
Walking to the man who had fallen to the ground and had not yet stood up, Karl immediately stretched out his left hand towards him:
"How's it going? Can you stand up?"
"Of course... of course!"
Hearing Karl's friendly inquiry, the man suddenly came back to his senses.
Holding Karl's hand, he stood up.
Although the blades of the pitcher plant just now were very powerful, they were not enough to cause any excessive damage to him.
Now that I have been sitting on the ground for such a long time, of course nothing has happened.
At the same time, Karl's extended left hand also made contact with the man's right hand holding his.
Through this brief contact, Carl confirmed the status of the plant arm.
After completing the symbiosis with the man, it has lost its independent thinking and now only serves as a tool to provide help to the host.
It is completely different from the parasitic plants that I have seen that erode the human body and control others.
From this, Carl was truly relieved.
I didn't help the wrong person, this is a human force.
See what Karl was thinking about. The man whose life he saved first nodded gratefully, and then immediately turned back to his companions.
"Yura, Mimir, how are you?"
"Were you okay just now?"
"It's okay, brother!"
Answering the man's question, the four people over there were also looking at Karl carefully.
After seeing the friendly smile on Carl's face, the group really let down their guard and started talking to the leader.
After completing the mutual comfort among the companions, the leading man came to Karl again, and then bent down deeply:
"Sir, thank you again."
"I wonder what your name is and where you come from?"
After carefully asking a few questions, the man continued with a conference look on his face:
"Perhaps you are from High Castle...or Sand...Haidu?"
High Castle? Sand? Sea City?
Three unfamiliar nouns in a row knocked Karl unconscious.
The literal meaning is quite easy to understand, but he really doesn’t know!
In line with the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes, and if you don’t lie, you won’t be seen through, Karl bit the bullet and said:
"Sorry, I don't quite understand the three place names you mentioned."
"My name is Karl. Actually, I just came to this forest."
"..."
Hearing Karl's reply, the man in front of him was stunned.
Then the surprise on his face turned into ecstasy. He turned towards his companion and said excitedly:
"Everyone, we met a pioneer!"
"Carl the Trailblazer!"
"pioneer?"
Hearing the man's shouting, the other four people also became excited, and the joy on their faces was like Karl receiving lucky money during the Chinese New Year.
Faced with this puzzling situation, Karl could only murmur in confusion:
"What exactly is going on?"
After roughly communicating with five people, Karl finally figured out his situation.
The man leading the group is called Luo Sheng, who is 21 years old and is a warrior team leader in a local human settlement.
After repelling the attack of parasitic plants last time, they were just patrolling in the woods on a regular basis, but they accidentally encountered the group of pitcher plants.
These pitcher plant-shaped things are actually miscellaneous soldiers created by parasitic plants during the last war. Luo Shengren's usual job is to find them and clean them up thoroughly.
I just didn't expect that I would encounter such a large number of pitcher plants today.
That's why the chase that Carl saw before happened.
As for the three place names he mentioned and Karl's so-called pioneer status, there is actually a reason for it.
Human beings in this era seem to uniformly regard a desert in the center of the world as their place of origin.
This is called sandy land.
In the long period of reproduction, humanoids gradually multiplied and grew stronger.
Then in response to the barren resources in the desert, people will naturally go out to find new settlements.
This kind of people are called pioneers in their civilization.
Most of the pioneers have great strength and courage to find new homes for mankind, so they are usually respected by people.
The so-called High Castle and Haidu are the new homes built by pioneers who came out of the desert.
The forest beneath Karl and his companions also bears the name of Sendu.
The reason why Luo Sheng believed that Carl was a pioneer was because he mistakenly believed that Carl was a descendant of the pioneers who had not communicated with his own race for several generations and was dedicated to finding a home for mankind!
