The End of the World: Mountain and Sea Disasters

Chapter 141 Hunting Night

Dark clouds covered the stars and the moon.

In the dark sky and earth, the cold wind blew violently, making a sharp whistle.

The rainstorm came suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, it replaced the fine snow and covered the Mirror Lake Forest, watering the Macrophagous Vine Forest.

In the temporary camp on the cliff, Yu Ke stared at the picture taken by the night vision equipment. When the flower buds above the jungle began to spray pollen, he immediately issued instructions to the control personnel of the Forest Defense Bureau.

The drone approached the Macrophagous Vine Forest for low-altitude cruising to check the surrounding movements.

Because the drones sent by the Forest Defense Bureau were equipped with multi-functional modules and weapons, they were large in size and difficult to shuttle in the Macrophagous Vine Forest, so Yu Ke let them act as aerial reconnaissance aircraft and provide firepower reinforcements to play their performance advantages.

Yu Ke, who has natural energy, easily resisted the influence of pollen, and the roars of beasts rose and fell in the woods outside the tent.

The ground was shaking under the influence of the galloping beasts, the trees were crushed by the rampaging beasts, and countless black shadows passed through the sky.

The previous rounds of hunting had certainly caused heavy losses to the beast population around the giant vines, but the mobility of beasts in the depths of the Mirror Lake Forest was extremely high, and a vacant forest would soon be filled with beasts from other areas.

Moreover, the giant vine forest was still expanding, and the range affected by pollen would also increase accordingly.

The beasts were bewitched by the pollen, and they left their nests with hunger and desire, and rushed into the giant vine forest in the rainstorm, but they didn't know that there was no gluttonous feast as imagined, but a terrifying existence that wanted to eat them alive.

At this time, the advantages of the camp's location were reflected.

The cliff was more than 500 meters high. No matter how crazy the ordinary beasts were, they would not be so anxious to jump down from here, and the birds and beasts in the sky would not stay here not far from the giant vine forest.

This makes the temporary camp in the beast tide the only remaining safe zone.

Watching many ferocious beasts enter the vine forest, Yu Ke put on smart glasses and started the detection drone placed outside.

The drone technology of this era is undoubtedly more advanced than that of the previous life.

Especially the models supplied to hunters, the rainstorm weather cannot interfere with its signal and operation.

The night vision mode is turned on, and the dark vision suddenly presents a dark green environmental image. Yu Ke controls the drone to quickly take off, following behind the beasts and approaching the giant vine forest.

Seeing many ferocious beasts pouring into the forest, the hunting of the giant vines unfolds as expected.

Wailing, roaring, intertwined in the wind and rain.

The ferocious beasts who woke up from a dream tried to escape from the trap that seemed to cover the sky and the earth, but were tripped by the vines that emerged from the darkness. Before they could get up again, they were tied up like "dumplings", waiting for the piercing blow of the flower bud.

"Which area has the most fierce beasts and the most frequent hunting of flower buds?"

To ensure smooth communication, Yu Ke divided the macrophagous vine forest into nine squares earlier so that the drone operator of the Forestry Bureau could accurately report the specific points to him.

Normally, the more frequent the activities of the flower buds, the greater the probability of hiding the core of the macrophagous vines. After all, the latter is the source of the entire vine forest and will definitely defend itself.

"Report to the consultant, area B3 is consistent with your judgment."

"Based on the current situation, the number of fierce beasts in area B3 is the largest, and the number of flower buds hunting exceeds 20 plants."

The report of two operators came from the headset, and the specified point was the same.

"Very good, you go to the sky above area B3 and wait, don't get too close, just make sure the searchlight is projected."

Controlling his drone into the macrophagous vine forest, the environment inside is complicated, and Yu Ke needs a searchlight to point out the direction for himself.

This is a very novel feeling.

Advanced VR technology makes Yu Ke feel as if he is actually there. The drone is like an extension of his will. Although he is in a warm tent, what he sees is the frenzied giant vines.

The noisy sound of rain mixed with the roar of beasts fills his ears, and the wildly swinging giant vines are in his field of vision. They are like long worms drilled out of the ground, indiscriminately attacking all living things in the forest at this moment.

The calculation and analysis characteristics bring extraordinary reaction speed, allowing Yu Ke to control the drone in a complex environment.

The drone, about the size of an ordinary person's palm, drilled into the vine forest and headed straight for the area illuminated by the searchlight in front. The extremely fast speed allows it to reach the target area in a very short time.

"Turn off the searchlight!"

Yu Ke gave another order, and darkness returned to the forest.

Through the camera of the drone, Yu Ke observed the surrounding hunting activities closely and captured unknown details.

Because he had guessed in advance that the core of the Macrophagous Vine Forest was hidden somewhere underground, Yu Ke controlled the drone to a height of about five meters above the ground to ensure that he could see all the changes happening on the ground.

The drone hovered, and several cameras rotated at multiple angles to ensure that Yu Ke could see all the surrounding scenes.

A strange bird that looked like a bat fell from the sky, struggling to get up. The vines entangled its wings, and the flower buds fell from top to bottom, gnawing off its head; the fierce tiger bit off the vines that approached, and its claws were wrapped in bloody sharp spikes. Before it could show its power, its two hind legs fell into the pit and were eaten by multiple blooming vines; the wild bull like a hill rushed forward, and countless vines gathered from all directions on the ground, binding its limbs tightly.

The blood rain splashed in front of the drone's camera.

Yu Ke watched all this, observing the movements of the giant vines when hunting, and soon locked onto an open space in the B3 area.

No matter what kind of beast it is, once it approaches this area, it will immediately be surrounded and suppressed by the giant vines. So far, no beast can last more than a minute in it.

"Pay attention to the position I marked now. Bomb it in one minute and shoot all the ammunition mounted on the drone!"

Control the drone to turn on the lighting and flash three times to ensure that the multi-functional drone still hovering in the sky can lock the target.

"The target has been locked, and the countdown begins."

The countdown of the operator came from the communication channel, and Yu Ke immediately controlled his drone to evacuate to a safe area.

Not long after, the fuselages of the two drones hovering in the air suddenly unfolded, and dozens of rockets shot out, dragging a narrow tail flame straight to the area marked by Yu Ke previously.

The reason for doing this is very simple. Yu Ke wants to further confirm whether his judgment is accurate.

Is the core of the macrophagous vine hidden under the ice and snow in this area in front of him?

Nearly thirty rockets passed through the tree canopy and locked onto the open space in the forest. Almost at the moment when they approached a distance of 100 meters, all the surrounding vines and flower buds seemed to have received some kind of irresistible order, abandoned the target in front of them, turned around at an astonishing speed, and forcibly intercepted the rockets.

As expected, most of the rockets were intercepted halfway. Even if the few rockets that succeeded in breaking through the defense line, they failed to hit the target in the end, but were blocked by the vines that spread out above the open space in advance, and no substantial results were achieved.

That's enough!

Yu Ke took off his glasses in the tent and picked up his mobile phone to contact the operator.

The macrophagous vines that caused a catastrophic incident in the Haisen Building not long ago were only a part of it. They brought such a big trouble to Jinghang City. Yu Ke never thought that the rockets mounted on two drones could destroy it alone.

His goal tonight was only one from beginning to end, that is, to determine where the core of the macrophagous vines was.

Yu Ke didn't need to worry about the rest. The Disaster Prevention Bureau had plenty of ways to turn this thing over.
