In a post-apocalyptic world, she was reborn and became the queen of the wilderness.

Bai Lei walked along the safety passage for a while, his gaze finally settling on the surrounding trees.

Although these trees have mutated, they have never done anything to harm humans.

They're just getting taller and taller.

The shortest is 18 or 19 meters tall, and the tallest is almost 30 meters tall.

The sounds of last night's battle didn't get out, nor did the flashes of the explosions.

Could it be related to these trees?

Bai Lei walked to a big tree and patted the trunk.

'Buzz buzz buzz—'

The tree trembled, its sound carrying a hint of displeasure, and sharp thorns even sprouted from parts of its trunk.

Bai Lei took a step back and picked at his ear.

The trembling sound of the tree wasn't loud, but it made people feel uneasy, giving rise to a strange sense of urgency.

He then walked over to the other trees and patted them one by one.

The results are the same.

"Should we hire someone to chop them all down?"

Bai Lei stroked his chin and muttered to himself.

The reason we didn't deal with them before and let these big trees grow freely was because we thought they could also serve as a safety barrier.

But now they might be the culprits behind the news not getting out last night—

Then we might as well not have this safety barrier!

No, this is not a safety barrier at all; it's clearly a time bomb.

"Swish, swish, swish—"

All things have a spirit, and these old trees that have survived for decades or even hundreds of years are like spirits.

Upon hearing Bai Lei's words about harming them, they immediately became enraged.

The massive root system throbbed wildly, causing the surrounding ground to tremble.

For a moment, the safety passage and its surroundings felt like an earthquake.

Woof woof woof!!

The water-type German Shepherd rushed to Bai Lei's side immediately, barking wildly at the trees as a warning.

But it was of no use.

The trees are not afraid of its attacks, and can even absorb its water energy to replenish their own moisture.

'cracking!!!'

Just then, the red bird was sent by the blue bird to check the situation. Seeing that the old trees below were restless, it immediately let out a sharp cry.

The trees were not afraid of water but were afraid of fire, especially the flames of the red bird, which they could not resist, and they immediately dared not move.

The red bird then flew down from mid-air and landed in front of Bai Lei.

Bai Lei quickly stepped forward and shared his guess.

After what just happened, Bai Lei felt even more strongly that these big trees were not good things, and hoped that the Red Bird could take action and burn them to death.

The trees: ? ? ?

He's muttering to himself that he wants to kill them and won't let them fight back.

Now they're even turning around and saying they're not good?

This is intolerable!

Even if I get burned to death by the Red Bird, I have to take down this kid first!!

So the trees started to stir again.

A cold glint flashed in the red bird's eyes, and it flapped its wings and struck the nearest tree.

The flames swirling around its wings instantly scraped off a large patch of bark and burned it to ashes.

Burn the trees to show them.

The other large trees seemed frightened and returned to calm.

The red bird then shook its head at Bai Lei, 'Chirp!'

We'll discuss everything once the human girl returns.

Bai Lei couldn't understand what it was saying, but he could tell that it was rejecting him.

"Captain, come here for a second!"

Just then, someone called out to him, so Bai Lei told Chi Niao and turned to leave.

After the red bird left, it spoke a few more warnings to the trees.

The trees couldn't understand the birds' language, but they could sense the threat it conveyed.

Although he felt wronged and unwilling, he could only stand there obediently and dare not throw a tantrum anymore.

They are not yet able to use their roots as feet and freely leave this place.

———??———

'roar!!'

Nan Ruanruan and Xiaobudian stopped when they were 300 meters behind Lei Shi and his group.

Shen Li hid in an apartment building, observing the situation in the distance with binoculars.

To her surprise, Lei Shi and the golden tiger were fighting fiercely.

The Xenomorphs and Xenomorph IIs that followed both sides were clearly distinguished, each standing behind their respective leaders, ready for battle.

They no longer mingled together like before.

"It seems Lei Shi is really angry this time."

Nan Ruanruan smiled with delight; this was exactly what they wanted!

Go ahead and fight, the fiercer the better.

Ideally, both sides should be severely weakened, allowing them to take advantage of the situation.

【Master, Master!!】

Nan Ruanruan was engrossed in watching when Tuanzi's voice echoed in her mind.

She looked around and then found Tuanzi and the others in a convenience store across the street.

Nan Ruanruan immediately called Huohuo and Xiaobudian downstairs.

The two sides met up quickly.

I don't know how Tuanzi and the others managed to do that, but in the convenience store, besides the three Tuanzi, there were more than twenty little cubs.

These little cubs seemed to have been instructed by their parents; they were quiet and well-behaved.

"Master, these little guys are the ones our undercover agents need your help to protect."

Tuanzi counted again, "There are twenty-five in total, belonging to eight different species kings."

We just met those eight alien kings, and they were all quite strong.

Three of them possessed territories larger than the Great Tiger's, and commanded countless mutants, making them no weaker than the Great Tiger in power.

"Oh? Since they're so strong, how come they were threatened by Lei Shi?"

Nan Ruanruan couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Well, because they have little babies!"

Tuanzi pointed to the little cubs who were lying obediently on the ground, looking at them with their big, wet eyes.

"Several female tigers followed the big tiger."

If Lei Shi wants to threaten it, he can only target those tigresses.

But those tigresses weren't weak cubs; they weren't easily controlled by it.

Tuanzi touched her nose.

In its limited memory, female tigers are no weaker than male tigers, and some are even more ferocious!

"It makes some sense!"

Nan Ruanruan waved her hand and put the cubs into her spatial storage.

"Dahei and Huohuo, come with me. Tuanzi, you guys go into the space to rest first."

"it is good!"

Tuanzi responded, and the little ones nodded as well.

Nan Ruanruan put them into her space as well, and then stretched.

Another sleepless night!

Once she's dealt with things here and made the most of the energy stones Commander Zhao and the others gave her, she'll definitely sleep soundly for three days and three nights!

Don't think about it now.

Let me have some coffee to wake myself up!

Nan Ruanruan downed two cups of hot coffee.

"Big Black, let's go back to Big Tiger's side first."

Nan Ruanruan jumped onto Dahei's back with Huohuo in her arms, and Dahei immediately led them out.

The wind whistled past my ears.

The egg that had been wrapped around her wrist felt like it was about to be blown away by the wind, so it quickly tightened its grip on Nan Ruanruan.

"Egg, you go back to your space too, but remember, you can't absorb the energy from the plants in your space without my permission!"

Upon hearing this, Egg nodded weakly.

Nan Ruanruan then put it into her spatial storage and instructed Tuanzi to watch over it.

After Tuanzi responded, she asked her again, "Master, aren't you going to watch the aftermath of Leishi's battle with the golden tiger?"

"Commander Zhao and the others are definitely keeping an eye on the situation here. I'll go back and talk to them directly later."

The military's equipment is far superior to her binoculars; it can definitely provide high-definition images.

Upon hearing this, Tuanzi stopped talking.
