In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

"Yohoo, our great swordsman is back. Hey, who are these guys?"

After the camp gate opened, a Qingsen Ranger with green hair and brown eyes appeared in front of Gu Qinian and the people from Manor No. 5918.

His hair was as thick as a bush, and he had a hideous half-ghost mask.

The sturdy breastplate under the cloak is made of logs, exuding a light natural scent.

The two exposed arms had wrinkles just like tree bark.

"Ah, I am Situ Shaowu, the owner of Manor No. 5918. These are my family's plant spirit warriors. We were rescued by the sword immortal benefactor during our exploration, and that's how we survived."

Situ Shaowu clasped his fists and saluted, then explained his purpose to the ranger.

After Situ Shaowu finished speaking, Gu Qinian on the side added a few more words, and mentioned in passing the heroic act of the people from Manor No. 5918 who were surrounded by a swarm of zombies in order to rescue the wanderers.

Upon learning what the group of people from Manor No. 5918 had done, the ranger's eyes suddenly lit up, and he patted Gu Qinian's shoulder with a smile:

"I didn't expect that the Great Swordsman would be able to win over a group of allies so quickly?"

Gu Qinian glanced at him calmly, and led the people from Manor No. 5918 directly into the ranger camp.

The ranger smiled cheerfully, then told his comrades to close the gate of the camp.

This ranger camp was mainly built with logs, and there were towering watchtowers at the four corners of the camp.

The tall wooden walls can block low-level zombies and monsters from the abandoned city, and the spiked chevaux de frise under the walls are not easy to deal with either.

Along the way, Situ Shaowu saw Aomori Rangers carrying weapons everywhere.

They were all in high spirits, some gathered together to chat, and some got together to compete in martial arts.

Situ Shaowu even saw a mulberry blaster spirit fiddling with his explosives.

Seeing him carelessly playing with the time bomb, Situ Shaowu was afraid that he would blow up the camp beneath his feet.

After the legendary ranger "Green Arrow Shadow" issued a call, many Aomori rangers came from all over the place and gathered in the abandoned city No. 59.

In order to accommodate these comrades who came from afar, a brand new ranger camp was built in the abandoned city.

The one who created this camp was now following Gu Qinian, talking to him from time to time.

He was the Aomori Ranger who had gone out to greet Gu Qinian earlier, and who had built the ranger camp in just a few hours.

"Name? Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Qu Shounan, and I'm a tree spirit guard with sixth-level plant spirit power."

The tree spirit guard named Qu Shounan took off half of his ghost mask and revealed a "kind" smile.

The corners of his mouth were almost split to below his ears, which was why Qu Shounan had been wearing half a ghost mask.

As can be seen from the name of the race, the tree spirit guards and plant spirits are natural defenders.

They are good at using plant spiritual power to shape various types of trees, combining offense and defense.

The most common attack method used by tree spirit guards and plant spirits is to create tree roots that penetrate the ground and produce sharp thorns that pierce the opponent.

They call this method "cutting", which is similar to the thorns summoned by the ground thorn plant spirit.

As for defensive measures, the most common one is to build high wooden walls.

The wall of the ranger camp was built by Qu Shounan using a large amount of plant spiritual power.

He was responsible for building everything, including the watchtowers and wooden houses.

Qu Shounan once joked to himself that if he stopped being a ranger, it would be nice to become an architect.

In addition, the tree spirits and plant spirits guarding it all possess very strong self-healing abilities.

No matter how serious the injury is, as long as they don't die on the spot, they can recover quickly and return to the battle.

When the upper echelons of the Federation hire bodyguards, tree spirits and plant spirits are their first choice.

After all, even the World Tree has a guard team mainly composed of tree spirits and plant spirits, who are specifically responsible for protecting the safety of the World Tree.

"Qu Shounan was also a member of the World Tree Guard, but he has retired from the Guard and later joined the Aomori Rangers."

Gu Qinian disdainfully pushed away Qu Shounan's hand that was on his shoulder. The cold swordsman was still not used to such close physical contact.

"Well, there's actually not much reason why I left the Guards. I just wanted to go out for a walk."

Qu Shounan didn't care about Gu Qinian's disdain. He spread his hands, indicating that it didn't matter.

“Life in the Guards is too dull, I’m not used to this kind of life.

What's more, the safety of Lord World Tree is not something that we, the little guys, should worry about.

Moreover, compared to me, the Sword Immortal who ran away from home has been a headache for Long An Gu for a long time, right? "

"Chatty."

Gu Qinian snorted coldly, but also agreed with Qu Shounan's statement.

The latter was still smiling as he led Manor 5918 and his group around the camp.

······

"Speaking of which, why are there so many Aomori Rangers in Abandoned City No. 59? They even set up a special camp?"

Situ Shaowu looked around and asked a question that had been on his mind since he entered the camp.

The footprints of the Aomori Rangers can be found all over the modern world, but they are always elusive and will not appear in large groups.

However, this camp located in the abandoned city No. 59 has gathered at least hundreds of Aomori Rangers so far.

In Situ Shaowu's opinion, this was something he had never heard of before.

"The reason is very simple, Lord Situ. If a group of Qingsen Rangers appear in a certain place, it must be because of the 'summoning order'." (Music)

"Once the Ranger Call is issued, it means that an unforgivable and extreme crime has occurred here." (Gu)

"Those who can issue the call are all legendary figures among the Aomori Rangers. They have extremely high reputations, so they can always get a hundred responses." (Music)

"For justice and for the people, we must eradicate all evil." (Gu)

Qu Shounan and Gu Qinian answered the questions raised by Situ Shaowu one by one.

"You two, may I ask what kind of crime it is that requires so many Aomori Rangers to be dispatched at the same time?"

According to the two rangers, countless Aomori rangers are on their way to Abandoned City No. 59.

Situ Shaowu was very curious about how great the sin could be that could make the Qingsen Ranger make such a big fuss.

Qu Shounan and Gu Qinian exchanged glances, seemingly wondering whether they should let the other party participate in the next action.

In the end, it was Gu Qinian who secretly made an affirmative gesture.

Qu Shounan understood and nodded, putting away the cynical smile on his face, and even his tone became serious:

"Sir Situ, if Qingsen Ranger needs your help, will you agree to lend a hand?"

"Of course! You are all first-class heroes. If I can help you, it will be an honor for me, Situ Shaowu, and Manor No. 5918!"

Situ Shaowu's tone was firm. Perhaps this was the passion that only young warriors possessed.

"In that case, we can tell you that Aomori Ranger's next goal is to redeem the Heavenly Path."

"The Road to Redemption? Is it the infamous Road to Redemption?"

"That's right. There is no other road to salvation in the modern world, and no fool would use its name to cheat people."

Whether it is human trafficking, telecommunications fraud, or a series of derivative criminal acts, they are enough to make Redemption Road the worst criminal group in the entire modern world.

All of their members are utterly heartless and vicious. The sins they have committed cannot be redeemed even if they are turned into ashes.

Chaotic areas like war zones are exactly where the Road to Redemption most often appears.

"We suspect that there is a branch of the Redemption Heavenly Path in Abandoned City No. 59, where there may be many innocent people who need to be rescued."

"Rangers will never tolerate such evil deeds, and justice will be served in the world!"
