Chapter 684 - 684 Deadends
684 Deadends
When the few of them heard this, their hearts immediately settled.
Xu Han said, “These Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers are so evil! They are still surrounding us! Are they not going to leave until they eat us?”
Ye Yifan analyzed. “I think it’s been a long time since anyone entered this strange forest. These Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers probably haven’t eaten meat for a long time, so it’s rare for them to come here. They seem to want to take us down no matter what.”
“That’s possible. This forest does look old,” said Allen Smith.
“What should we do then?” Hans Wilson asked. “Our spirit energy is too weak. We’re no match for these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.”
Luo Wei replied, “Perhaps we can only fight. We can’t avoid it.”
…
When Liu Yan heard this, he shook his head and said, “I’ve just investigated carefully and thought about it. I don’t think it’s a trap set by the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. Now that these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers have surrounded us, they don’t dare to come in. It’s obvious that there’s something here that the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers are afraid of, so they don’t dare to come closer. Otherwise, with their temper, they would have come in long ago.”
Xu Han said, “That’s true. Otherwise, these flowers would have come in and eaten us.”
“In that case, we’re still safe here for the time being,” Hans Wilson said, “At least the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers can’t come in and attack us now.”
“Not necessarily,” said Allen Smith. “We have to find a way to leave this place. We can’t stay here forever.”
Ye Yifan replied, “These Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers seem to be fine. They’ll probably be waiting for us outside.”
Luo Wei agreed. “Yes, the encirclement outside is very tight and has multiple layers. We can’t sneak out. Even if I can become invisible, the encirclement is too thick. Also, the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers’ spirit energy is too strong. If I get close, I’ll be discovered. Among the few of us, I’m afraid only Captain Liu can go there invisibly or fly there.”
When they heard this, they looked at Liu Yan with envy. Perhaps this was the benefit of being powerful.
When they were ambushed by the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, only Liu Yan was not affected. He even saved them.
They were usually considered top experts. But now, they were at their wits’ end when facing the heavy encirclement of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
On the other hand, Liu Yan was powerful. Not only could he go invisible, but he could also fly there. He could protect himself no matter what, which was much better than the others.
It was comfortable to be powerful.
When Liu Yan heard this, he smiled and comforted, “If it’s okay, we’ll think of a way to get out together. I won’t leave you guys behind.”
When the few of them heard this, they all nodded. They trusted Liu Yan’s character and knew that he would not give up on them so easily.
Liu Yan continued, “It’s getting late. We can’t waste time here. We have to find a way to get out. Let’s figure out a few things first. When we were ambushed by the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, all of us were affected except for Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf. We must figure out the reason and see if we can utilize it. If we can do the same, we won’t be afraid of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. Secondly, we need to find out why the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers outside don’t dare to come close here. We need to know if we can use that special item to scare off the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers and escape. If these two methods can’t help us escape, we only have a third option. We need to study the characteristics of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower and find a way to kill our way out!”
When Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and the other four heard this, they immediately felt that Liu Yan’s thinking was clear. He could still think so calmly in such a desperate situation.
They could have thought of these points. After all, they were all squad leaders who led many members. Their leadership and planning skills were not bad.
However, in this desperate situation, facing a life-and-death crisis, they were also a little flustered. They could not think calmly and did not think about this at all.
Liu Yan was the only one who could think calmly and even in this situation.
Xu Han said, “Okay. We’ll start with Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf. All of us were affected, but Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf wasn’t affected at all.”
Luo Wei agreed. “That’s right. Captain Liu had the strongest spirit energy, but he still fell into the illusion for the first time. Only Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was unaffected.”
“There must be something special about Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf,” Hans Wilson said.
“Liu Yan, this Ice and Fire Dragon Wolf is your war beast. You should be able to figure out the reason,” said Allen Smith.
“Yes, Captain, quickly ask him.” Ye Yifan replied.
They all looked at Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf.
Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was uncomfortable under their gazes and went to Liu Yan’s side.
Liu Yan asked Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf through their mind connection.
After asking and sensing Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s intentions, Liu Yan roughly understood the reason.
Liu Yan looked at the others and said, “I’ve figured it out. Not only is Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf a dual-attribute beast, but it also has two heads and two brains. The two brains are connected but separate. When the Hallucinatory Pollen hypnotizes one of its brains, the other brain can immediately notice something is wrong and help it get out of the illusion. The Hallucinatory Pollen can’t hypnotize both brains at the same time. The Hallucinatory Pollen does not affect Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf.”
Ye Yifan replied, “I see. Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf is a special fierce beast. It has two brains that are connected but independent.”
Allen Smith agreed. “Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf is indeed special. It’s a dual-attribute beast. It’ll be extremely powerful when it grows up.”
Allen Smith didn’t say that he suspected Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was already stronger than him.
Luo Wei frowned. “If that’s the case, the hallucination pollen can’t affect Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf. That’s why it didn’t fall into the illusion.”
Hans Wilson said helplessly, “It’s special, but it also means that it can’t be applied to us.”
“It seems like the first option won’t work,” Xu Han said worriedly, “We’ll have to look at the second option.”
At this moment, the faces of Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and the other four people did not look too good.
At present, there were only three options.
In their opinion, the third option was impossible. After all, there were so many Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. Although they were good at fighting, how could they kill all of these dangerous flowers?
Moreover, they did not have strong spirit energy. If they were not careful when facing the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower, they could be unlucky and die.
Due to the lack of spirit energy, they could not do anything even though they had strong physical power and elemental energy.
Immediately after, Liu Yan, Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and the other four people started searching the area surrounded by the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers but did not dare to enter.
In any case, the group of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers did not seem to dare to enter this area. It was relatively safe for the few of them to explore here, so they might as well explore separately. They just had to be careful not to leave this area.
After some exploration, the group discovered that this was just a very ordinary forest, and there seemed to be nothing special about it.
They even turned the ground upside down to search, but they still didn’t find anything. No matter how they searched, they couldn’t find anything special. It was just an ordinary place.
