CHAPTER 494: CHAPTER 374: UNBOXING, CONTINUOUSLY ACQUIRING NEW WEAPONS! GUESSING THE NEW DISASTER!_3

Yesterday, he tidied up the Shelter and all the nearby ice blocks right from the start, so the area around was quite dry. However, the patches of greenery underfoot made Lin Yue instinctively look down for a closer examination.

What lay beneath could no longer be called "sprouts." After all, calling the grass already seven or eight centimeters tall "sprouts" would be quite disrespectful.

"They’re growing so quickly... And it seems it’s not just fast growth."

He raised his head and looked around; almost his entire view was covered by these plants on the ground, some reddish-brown, some yellow-green!

Originally, this was just a Desert, with only exposed reddish-brown soil, dispirited dry grass, and Mad Poison Herb flowers of various colors that weren’t particularly energetic.

But now, the Desert had turned into an entire carpet of dazzling colors, quite spectacular!

He immediately opened the world channel, where people were discussing the plants that seemed to have gone crazy in growth overnight, with many sharing photos or videos to convey these anomalies to everyone.

"As expected... Is this related to the plants?"

Lin Yue felt he could now be sure of one thing.

Among the threefold disasters this time, one disaster must be related to these "plants."

"A plant-type disaster... What could it be? Can’t imagine."

The growth speed of these plants is indeed astonishing, but what harm could they cause?

Lin Yue thought for a while but couldn’t come up with anything.

Has a plant-type disaster ever happened on Earth?

It couldn’t be something like an overwhelming amount of pollen... But to people without pollen allergies, this wouldn’t be much of a concern.

Plants growing crazily? Even if they grew as big as trees, so what?

Lin Yue was baffled.

Plants are different from animals; they cannot actively attack people. Even the mythical man-eating plants won’t bother you unless you approach them, similar to common pitcher plants and sundews, which can trap and digest small insects only if they get close enough.

Moreover, even small insects could be trapped like this, but humans can easily destroy them.

Not to mention, plants are extremely weak against fire, with too many vulnerabilities.

Could it be that plants are not one of the disasters this time?

"Gawu!" Bai suddenly swung his tail and let out a low growl. Lin Yue turned his head and saw a mass of bloody flesh near the tip of the tail.

He walked over to take a closer look.

"Beetle... It’s quite big."

It was a beetle with a metallic green shell, adorned with white spots like little circles, about the size of a basketball—a truly impressive size.

Normally, these creatures are just scavengers. Eliminating them results in a wooden treasure box, nothing worth regretting.

"Gawu!" Bai swung his tail again, revealing another smaller metallic blue beetle.

Lin Yue shook his head; there were indeed many insects—just as the system said, the number of mutated creatures had increased.

If it had been this frequent from the start, he might have already become dominant over everyone on the first day.

With Bai wearing the Combat Suit, they spread their wings and flew up to high altitude, and from there, looking down, the entire view was engulfed in green.

"What will happen next?" Lin Yue wondered, looking down, his mind mulling over the new disaster.
