Chapter 142 Collapse of the Earth

The heavy rain ended around five in the morning.

After close observation, Yu Ke, who had already identified the target, recovered the drone and reported his findings to the Forestry Bureau.

The core of the macrophagous vine was hidden under the forest.

Judging from the degree of protection it received during the hunting process, it was impossible for Yu Ke to dig it out in front of many flower buds.

I am afraid that the macrophagous vine will attack crazily if it moves a little.

Fortunately, the Disaster Prevention Bureau was standing behind Yu Ke, and all he had to do was to determine the target.

The recent attack made the Disaster Prevention Bureau particularly vigilant about the abnormal growth of macrophagous vines. In order to prevent other evil forces from having evil intentions in this regard, the Disaster Prevention Bureau had long had the idea of ​​destroying the vine forest.

After receiving the news from Yu Ke through the Forestry Bureau, the air force base near Jinghang City immediately began to make plans.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Yu Ke, who had recovered his energy after a light sleep, washed up in the tent, changed into combat uniforms and came to the edge of the cliff, looking at the vine forest in front of him that was once again covered with snow.

Only a few hours had passed, and the bloody slaughterhouse seemed to have never appeared.

The snow covered the vines, and even the flower buds high above the jungle seemed to have turned into exquisite ice sculptures.

Yu Ke raised his hand to pull the bearskin hood back to his head, watching all this, but in his mind he was communicating with the will of the forest spirit that was hosted in the mark.

As the former controller of the Mirror Lake Forest, the forest spirit that has recovered some of its strength is gradually returning to this world.

Although the process is not as easy as imagined, there is no doubt that it has the ability to perceive and explore the forest area. The best proof of this is that it located the infected mutant beast in the Pandora incident.

Yu Ke stayed in the temporary camp for nearly 24 hours. He was eager to know whether the forest spirit had figured out what was under the giant vine forest.

A monster still in the making, or a collection of flesh and blood energy?

"I can't detect it. Some special existence has blocked my power from penetrating."

Yu Ke couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at the response of the forest spirit. Even if he recovered some of his abilities, he still couldn't perceive it clearly.

What kind of guy can resist the perception of the forest spirit in the Mirror Lake Forest?

Curiosity made Yu Ke more and more concerned about the secrets hidden under the giant vine forest.

Since the forest spirit couldn't sense it, he could only change his way.

His eyes were cast at the black spots that were constantly enlarging in the distant sky. The roar of the fighter planes overwhelmed the whistling wind and snow. The fighter formation that received the order from the Disaster Prevention Bureau finally arrived at the target area.

Because Yu Ke had reported the specific location last night, the bomber started to perform the mission directly after approaching.

Compared with the missiles mounted on the drone, the larger and more powerful aerial bombs flew from high altitude and headed straight for the core area of ​​the giant vine forest.

The giant vines obviously didn't know how exaggerated the power of this bomb was.

In their perception, they were just a few black iron lumps. Even if they fell to the ground, they would at most make a hole, which would not cause much impact. The flower buds in the non-hunting state did not even stop them.

This is the limitation of natural creatures.

They could not understand how terrifying the weapons made by humans were. Just like the giant beast that rushed out of the Mirror Lake, no matter how ferocious it was, it had to be killed in the face of repeated bombings.

The seemingly weak humans actually possessed the force that could destroy this world!

Yu Ke had already evacuated the edge of the cliff and returned to the multi-layer reinforced tent. He was holding a bag of snacks in his hand, eating while watching the destruction of the giant vine forest.

Not to mention, such a destructive scene was quite enjoyable to watch.

At the moment when several bombs fell, violent explosions followed.

The broken soil wrapped the vines, and the fragments of the trees rushed up to a height of hundreds of meters. Everything around was crushed in the blink of an eye. The giant vines that strangled the beasts last night were now like the dead grass on the autumn field, weak and vulnerable.

Even Yu Ke was affected by the air wave generated by the explosion. Fortunately, he built the camp on the side of the cliff hundreds of meters high. If it was built at the foot of the mountain, it would be overturned by the air wave at this moment.

Considering that the core is hidden underground, the Disaster Prevention Bureau launched several ground-penetrating missiles in succession after dropping bombs to "weed" the target area, vowing to completely kill the existence in it.

Sitting in the tent, Yu Ke could see that the forest land within a radius of 100 meters in the target area was sunken and collapsed. Both the trees and vines were destroyed, leaving only a huge charred pit.

The giant vines that slaughtered the beasts wantonly seemed to have reached its end.

Yu Ke picked up the remote control and adjusted the viewing angle of the observation equipment to check the condition of the vines in the outer area.

Perhaps because the core was destroyed, the outer macrophagous vines began to wither on a large scale, and the few remaining flower buds also drooped to the ground, completely losing the majesty that stood proudly above the jungle before.

The bombing ended, and the fighter formations returned one after another. Yu Ke was not in a hurry to pack up and leave, but put on his coat and prepared to go to the target area to check.

On the one hand, he wanted to ensure that the macrophagous vine forest had been eliminated from the root, so that it would not grow again in the spring breeze.

On the other hand, Yu Ke still wanted to figure out what could hinder the forest spirit's investigation. If he could find some wreckage, he might be able to take this opportunity to obtain something valuable.

Since he was here, there was no reason to go back empty-handed.

Yu Ke even hoped that the core of the macrophagous vine was not completely killed, so that he could harvest it.

Such a special target would definitely be identified as a special individual by the trophy characteristics.

With the intention of picking up leaks, Yu Ke came to the huge pit created by the bombing.

Crossing the crooked and overturned broken wood, the land turned up by the shock wave, the vines and tree fragments left by the explosion, and wisps of smoke that had not yet dissipated rose everywhere.

Looking up at the gray sky that seemed inexplicably spacious, snowflakes were falling.

"It's already been blown into such a mess, there shouldn't be anything that can stop you, right?"

If Yu Ke dug around in this unrecognizable bomb crater by himself, he might not find what he wanted until the evening, so he naturally had to rely on the power of the forest spirit.

".The power is still there."

The forest spirit's reply made Yu Ke frown, and then he was a little surprised.

The power of isolation and exploration is still there, does it mean that the core of the macrophagous vine has not been completely destroyed?

After such a large-scale bombing, even if it is still alive, it is probably in a dying state. At present, the macrophagous vines in this area have been blown to pieces, and the danger has undoubtedly been reduced to the lowest level. It is simply free professional experience and spoils.

Sure enough, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

Although the surrounding environment has been completely changed, it is certain that the center of the bomb crater is the target area.

Yu Ke observed the crater along the way, searching for traces of the core of the macrophagous vine, and finally came to the center of the deep pit. This side was more than ten meters deep from the surface, but because the crater was too large and the slope was very gentle, it was not very obvious when he walked over.

Only when he got here and looked around, he found that the surrounding soil layer was much higher than he imagined.

However, Yu Ke was not satisfied with this. The final effect of the bombing was somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Why only bombed here?"

You should know that Yu Ke had reminded the Forestry Bureau in advance and asked them to emphasize the fact that the core of the macrophagous vine was hidden underground when contacting the Disaster Prevention Bureau, so that the bomber could carry a ground-penetrating bomb.

It stands to reason that with the modern level of weapon manufacturing, ground-penetrating bombs are not very advanced. Even if there are obstacles from vines and tree roots, it should not be difficult to detonate about twenty meters underground.

Can the hardness of the forest land be compared with the reinforced concrete in the city?

"There are a lot of plant roots under your feet."

Just when Yu Ke was confused about the situation on the scene, Sen Ling's reminder made him quickly realize the problem.

When making the bombing plan, everyone's attention was focused on the macrophagous vine forest on the surface. They took it for granted that as long as these macrophagous vines were cleared, the core hidden underground could be destroyed with the ground-penetrating bomb.

The reality is that the core of the macrophagous vine located underground is likely to have a layer of barrier composed of plant roots. They consolidate the soil layer and forcibly prevent the deep blasting of the ground-penetrating bomb, which makes the explosion center only so deep.

Thinking of this, Yu Ke immediately took out his mobile phone and contacted the operator again, asking the Disaster Prevention Bureau to arrange the second batch of bombers. He didn't believe that the defense line composed of these soil and plant roots could withstand the second round of targeted bombing!

The Disaster Prevention Bureau quickly responded that the second batch of bombers would arrive at the scene in half an hour. Yu Ke, who had no hope of picking up leaks, also planned to evacuate first.

But just as Yu Ke turned around and took a step to return to the temporary camp, the ground under his feet suddenly trembled.

The crack began to spread from the center of the pit, spreading in all directions like a spider web.

Yu Ke, who realized that something was wrong, hurriedly sped up, but before he could run far, two giant three-toed claws dragged some vines and root debris suddenly rushed out from the ground, as if to tear the forest from the ground, and force the cracks open!

Yu Ke, who was in the center of the pit, was not spared.

Even if he reacted quickly enough and accelerated to evacuate at the same time as the cracks burst out.

However, in just a blink of an eye, the land within a radius of hundreds of meters suddenly broke and collapsed as if it had lost its support. Even Yu Ke did not expect such an accident to happen!
