After the pink petal "mummy" burst apart, more than a dozen Crystal Cores fell from within it.
Lin Dong stepped forward and saw that some belonged to humans, while others came from mutated beasts, each flickering with differently colored energy.
Clearly, this flower field had caused hallucinations, driving living creatures to slaughter one another and leaving these behind.
The humanoid form woven from petals was not Zombie King Duo'er's true body, but merely a medium capable of transmitting brainwave signals, producing sounds, and so on...
Other than using pollen to induce hallucinations, she had not displayed any other means of attack.
