Sang Luoluo found two remaining Crystal Core on the ground and picked them up as well.
Chuanchuan sniffed around and smelled the scent of other mutated animals. Displeased, it snorted.
As they continued forward, perhaps their footsteps were too conspicuous in the quiet forest, because Sang Luoluo used her mental power to observe that the mutated animals around them were beginning to move. She didn't know if it was other natural enemies passing by, or if these animals had targeted them.
In short, something is very wrong.
She had barely sensed something was wrong when Chuanchuan became alert.
It whimpered at its surroundings, appearing defensive.
Qi Feng also heard some rustling noises. A bad feeling washed over him, and he whispered, "Let's hide in the tree for a while."
"Um."
Sang Luoluo, holding Chuanchuan, flew directly up into the tree with Qi Feng, and found a relatively comfortable spot to squat down.
Qi Feng asked, "What did you see?"
Sang Luoluo hesitated, "I'm not sure. The mutated animals around us were quiet in the cave, but suddenly they started moving. If it were just mutated animals running around in one direction, that would be fine, but I saw movement in all four directions. That's really strange."
" Qi Feng, have you ever encountered this situation before?"
Qi Feng paused for a moment, then said, "It could be an invasion by a natural enemy, or unusual activity by a natural enemy. Or it could be a sign of an earthquake."
Sang Luoluo: "..."
She definitely doesn't want to experience another earthquake.
Base No. 32 has only just been rebuilt.
Qi Feng said gently, "This is just my guess; there could be other reasons."
Looking down at the ground, one could vaguely see mutated rats darting out from the surrounding area, only to disappear again quickly.
Sang Luoluo used her mental energy to observe her surroundings. As soon as a mutated rat showed its head, a mutated bird swooped down and snatched it away.
"A mutant bird!!" Sang Luoluo exclaimed.
As soon as Sang Luoluo saw the mutated bird peek out, the other mutated rats near the hole scattered like madmen.
Qi Feng realized. "They are natural enemies."
"Mutant birds often eat mutant insects and mutant snakes. Now that the weather is cold, the mutant snakes have already hibernated, and there aren't many mutant insects left. On the contrary, the mutant mice that are still active have become the targets of the mutant birds."
Sang Luoluo replied, "Why don't we try and see?"
Sang Luoluo noticed an open space a few dozen meters to their left front, where dozens of mutated rats roamed deep underground.
He then scattered a handful of peanuts in that direction.
The sound of food hitting the ground spurred the surrounding mutated rats to rush out and snatch it.
From the tree branch, Qi Feng only saw a dark mass of mutated rats on the ground scrambling for a handful of peanuts.
Sang Luoluo felt that wasn't enough, so she scattered a large handful of corn kernels into the pile of mice.
The sudden appearance of radiation-free food drove the mutated rats even crazier.
Next, to Qi Feng and Sang Luoluo's astonishment, more than a dozen mutated birds swooped down, each carrying one in its beak and several on its feet, and landed on the ground to eat them one by one.
The mutated rats scattered in all directions, and those that couldn't escape became their food.
Several more mutated birds arrived later, and by the time they arrived, even the shadow of the mutated rat hole was nowhere to be seen.
It let out a few angry, defiant cries.
Sang Luoluo was also surprised; it was the first time she had seen a mutated bird preying on a mouse, and it was a complete and utterly overwhelming presence.
Qi Feng's expression was somewhat grim. After a moment, as if struck by a thought, he said in a deep voice, "I have a bad feeling."
"What?"
"Do you remember that day, Base Chief Chang the team, and so many aircraft were attacked by a flock of mutated birds? Could it be that their landing point is in this area?" Qi Feng trusted his intuition.
In the past, he would have been helpless against so many mutated birds, but now he has the power of lightning, and Sang Luoluo is by his side.
Qi Feng suggested, "What do you think? Could the two of us ambush these mutated bird flocks, like we did before? We could lure the mutated birds with the mutated rats. They're not many, so the two of us can easily handle them. But if we do it a few times, maybe we can even take on that terrifying flock of mutated birds..."
Before she could finish speaking, Sang Luoluo was already smitten.
Those mutated birds are at the top of the food chain; they have the most Crystal Core nuclei in their bodies.
If we can handle this flock of mutated birds, we'll be rich!
He decisively replied, "I think it's a good idea."
Qi Feng wasn't one to procrastinate. "Then let's do it now."
Qi Feng immediately took out his Crystal Core. At this moment, the dozen or so mutated birds in front of him were still within Sang Luoluo's mental control range, and he could easily deal with them.
Without Qi Feng even needing to make a move, Sang Luoluo was directly pulled into the space and dealt with using Crystal Core.
They kill them entirely by locking them in cages; it's very effective.
The two were so excited that they gave each other a high five.
Sang Luoluo then scattered a handful of peanuts in the same spot.
The sound of peanuts falling to the ground attracted the surrounding mutated rats, but after what had just happened, the mutated rats were restless in their burrows, drooling over the delicious food, yet too afraid to come out.
After hesitating for a long time, a few mutated rats still sneaked out and ran towards the peanuts.
At that moment, the mutated bird circling in the air suddenly swooped down and snatched a mutated rat in its mouth. Before the rat could swallow it, Qi Feng shot it in the head.
Sang Luoluo then stored the mutated bird's corpse into her spatial storage.
Qi Feng said, "This place was attacked by mutated birds just now, so we need to find another place."
"Okay, sure."
The two persisted on their original route and continued forward, where they discovered a relatively intact aircraft fuselage, though some parts were deformed from the impact.
Sang Luoluo the object into her spatial storage. There were also traces of mutated animals in the vicinity. The pilot's body was long gone from the aircraft, and it was unknown what mutated animal had eaten it. The wild was indeed terrifying and cruel.
Qi Feng said, "Let's do it here; the view is better."
Sang Luoluo nodded, and together they moved back and hid in a tree branch.
The Chuanchuan wanted to make a move, Sang Luoluo simply hugged them tightly to prevent them from doing so.
They scattered several handfuls of peanuts, beans, and corn kernels onto the open ground ahead.
The rustling sound made the mutated rats and squirrels around them unable to resist their hunger, and they all rushed out.
In an instant, a dense crowd surged together, scrambling to grab it.
In just a few breaths, several more mutated birds swooped down.
Next, one after another, the mutated birds swooped down and attacked in the directions where the mutated rats had fled.
Eat and take as much as you want, as much as you can.
Sang Luoluo first pulled the mutated birds within her mental control range into her space. For the remaining birds that were further away and beyond her mental control range, the two quickly climbed down the tree and rushed towards the direction of the mutated birds, trying to kill them as soon as possible while they were still on the ground.
Qi Feng's hands moved quickly; he aimed his Crystal Core at the mutated bird's head, killing it one shot at a time.
After Sang Luoluo arrived, she immediately pulled those she could control into the space, and used her mental power to control the Crystal Core to aim and kill those she couldn't control one by one.
moment.
"A total of 66, quite a haul."
Qi Feng smiled and said, "Continue."
Sang Luoluo thought of Qi Xue and the others, "If Qi Xue He Fei were here too, it would be great. There are more of us, and we could catch more mutated birds."
Qi Feng said, "Next time, the two of us aren't bad either. If there are too many mutated birds, we'll just hide. If we get rid of the mutated birds, we'll have rid the base of a menace."
If the mutated bird flock migrates and tries to attack the base, it would be a major battle. It's better for them to stay on the ground and slowly explore, taking them down one by one.
After walking a little further, the two found a relatively open area.
Sang Luoluo followed suit and threw in a handful of peanuts and corn kernels, which were relatively scattered.
This time, the mutant birds were directly attracted. As soon as the mutant rats peeked out, mutant birds swooped down. The other mutant rats didn't even have time to retreat back into their burrows before the mutant birds trampled over them.
Sang Luoluo quickly took action, but unfortunately only managed to capture a few, while Qi Feng killed eight, making it about the same for both of them.
After killing the mutated birds, the mutated rats, unaware of the threat, began to swarm out.
Chapter 314 Can We Make Our Move? Mutant Bird Flock?
There were still mutated birds in the sky that hadn't come down. Upon discovering a large number of mutated rats moving on the ground, they couldn't resist swooping down to hunt them.
A dozen or so mutated birds came down together, while the rest blocked off other directions.
The mutated birds that were further away were out of reach of the Sang Luoluo, but the dozen or Sang Luoluo had come closer were easily pulled into the space and dealt with. Of course, the mutated rats on the ground were not spared either.
Sang Luoluo threw Chuanchuan into the space as well. As soon as she entered the space, she saw the mutated birds and mutated rats that were being controlled. Chuanchuan became excited, and crackling lightning power spread all over the bodies of these mutated animals.
Seeing this, Sang Luoluo fired a few more shots, and they were all done with it.
" Chuanchuan, you just wait here and deal with them properly."
The Chuanchuan slightly raised its chin to indicate it understood. "Woof!!"
Qi Feng and He jumped down and moved quickly through the forest. Qi Feng looked up and fired, killing the mutated bird flying overhead. The bird plummeted straight to the ground.
Sang Luoluo naturally picked it up and threw it into the storage space.
Continuing forward, Sang Luoluo discovered some Crystal Core underground and pulled them into the space.
