Chapter 233 - Eat It!
After Ye Sheng thought that Fu Ruo might have returned, her heart was lifted high, fearing that the opportunity she exchanged with her own happiness would be wasted by Fu Ruo!
If that happened, she would really explode on the spot, and she wouldn't need Gu Luoyu to take action, she would do it herself!
With this thought in mind, Ye Sheng, filled with resentment, acted with great determination. Without needing guidance, she quickly ran to the lakeside and immediately found the other people mentioned by the person who had spoken earlier.
Soon, Ye Sheng saw a few people squatting beside the polluted plants, hiding quite well, but their faces were all filled with surprise, their eyes fixed on the lake ahead, full of astonishment.
Following their gaze, she saw the originally calm lake surface churning, with huge waves, and in the center floating a... huh? Is that coral?
Ye Sheng tilted her head in confusion, staring at the colorful plant. It looked like coral, but the whole coral had eyes all over it, blinking from time to time???
This kind of terrifying thing, just looking at it will make you lose Sanity, it's really scary!
However, apparently the situation was different from what she had imagined. It wasn't Fu Ruo coming back to cause trouble, but this strange polluted plant that was frightening people, prompting them to seek strong combat power to solve the problem.
Just as Ye Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, Gu Luoyu and the others finally arrived late.
“Ah! What is this thing, so ugly!”
“Is this what they were talking about earlier? I've never seen such a strange polluted plant before, indeed worthy of something from the water, anything is possible!”
“It's just a polluted plant, why are you making such a big fuss? And you didn't explain clearly earlier, I thought we miners were going to die again!”
“Isn't this scary enough? What if it has some strange abilities? Ordinary people like us might die without knowing how, maybe those dead miners were killed by this polluted plant!”
Indeed, it wasn't just Ye Sheng who found this coral-like polluted plant terrifying and ugly!
As someone mentioned the initial incident of the miners dying in groups, it immediately caused panic among the crowd, leading to even more anxious discussions. The noisy sounds made Gu Luoyu frown, disliking such clamor.
She glanced at Team Leader Liu, who had arrived later. Even without speaking, just looking at those red eyes filled with impatience makes people immediately understand the meaning.
Team Leader Liu was timid in front of Gu Luoyu, but when facing others, he was very assertive.
He quickly turned around and glared at the people, not daring to make too much noise, afraid to attract the attention of the polluted plant in the center of the lake. Therefore, he controlled his volume and scolded the miners: “What are you all doing here? If you have nothing else to do, get out of here quickly. If you interfere or cause trouble later, don't blame me for being merciless!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd immediately quieted down, no one dared to make noise anymore, fearing they would be driven away.
If it were just these ordinary people, the miners wouldn't dare to stay here... but the strongest in the team, Gu Luoyu, was here. With the big shot present, their sense of security increased millions of times, giving them a chance to witness what was happening.
After solving the noise problem in the crowd, Team Leader Liu didn't dare to take credit. He timidly stood beside Gu Luoyu, slowly slowing down his steps, gradually distancing himself from Gu Luoyu.
Although espers are outstanding, their strong power is linked to a crazy mental state. Being unpredictable is what these ability users are like, smiling one second and taking lives the next, very moody!
Therefore, people should know their limits, staying away when possible to save their lives!
Ignoring Team Leader Liu's thoughts, at this moment, Gu Luoyu's gaze was serious and focused on the polluted plant. She didn't find the many eyes on the coral terrifying or eerie, but instead, her red eyes sparkled with surprise.
After confirming that she couldn't let this polluted plant go, the first thing Gu Luoyu did was not to attack, but to quickly release her psychic power, forming a black net around the polluted plant.
After that, she leisurely walked over, and the next second, she actually walked on the water as if it were flat ground.
Not to mention others, even Ye Sheng was surprised, her eyes wide open... last time at the pond, Gu Luoyu couldn't truly walk on water when she wanted to pick the Jade Lotus, but now she succeeded?
Without even needing any support??
This isn't normal???
Ye Sheng thought this, then carefully observed and quickly found the reason... Every time Gu Luoyu stepped, she stepped on a small black thing, a thin piece not very noticeable, but Ye Sheng knew it was Gu Luoyu's mutated psychic power.
Now she can control her psychic power so well!
Gu Luoyu is truly gifted!
However, espers are indeed the strongest combat power in the wasteland world, and in the future, they will surely play with psychic abilities in more ways... sigh, hopefully, she can draw other skills later, avoiding the old trick of only having air bullets.
It's fine for hitting polluted creatures, but when it comes to people, it's easy to be counterattacked.
After all, the method is too simple, making it easy for others to guess.
Perhaps the coral-like polluted plant wasn't powerful, or in front of Gu Luoyu, even if it was powerful, it would still be defeated. In short, the polluted plant that scared people was forcibly pulled out from the bottom of the lake by Gu Luoyu in just one encounter.
Directly tearing off all its roots!
However, after losing its roots, this rebellious polluted plant didn't die immediately. The many eyes on the plant were still blinking, as if the eyeballs were rolling around.
Ye Sheng felt a headache just looking at it, she didn't dare to go over, only hesitating in place.
This timid appearance fell into Gu Luoyu's eyes, making it somewhat amusing, but knowing Ye Sheng's timid personality, it wasn't surprising.
Gu Luoyu thought for a moment, then directly asked Team Leader Liu to take the others away. After quickly clearing the area, only Gu Luoyu and Ye Sheng remained.
Then, Gu Luoyu raised her hand and beckoned Ye Sheng, signaling her to come over.
The hesitant Ye Sheng finally shuffled over, while saying, “Ah Yu, take that thing away, it's so scary, I feel like they're glaring at me with their eyeballs!”
As she spoke, Ye Sheng touched the goosebumps on her arm, but when she saw Gu Luoyu's next action, she was so scared she almost jumped three feet high.
Gu Luoyu actually took out a dagger, plucked an eye from the polluted plant, and then smiled at Ye Sheng, saying, “Taste it?”
“???”
Ye Sheng directly drew a big X in front of her chest. Even if she were killed today, she wouldn't eat such a strange and terrifying bloody thing!
Moreover, she now reasonably suspects that Gu Luoyu had a heavy taste, normal people would never do this!
And even asked her if she wanted to taste it!!!
Facing Ye Sheng's shocked, puzzled, and afraid expression, Gu Luoyu didn't tease her anymore, otherwise she believed she would soon become a pervert: “Xiao Sheng, don't overthink it, this polluted plant contains a lot of vitality, which is exactly what you need.”
