Ahhhhh, high-altitude survival!

Chapter 78, Flying Mosquito Sting

[Carnivorous Plant (Fine): A natural-type attacking creature known for its enormous appetite. It can be planted in specific areas to suddenly prey on creatures approaching its hunting range. The predation radius is 1.5 meters, and once triggered, it will deal 40 physical damage to the target. It chews for a long time, so please be patient and do not rush it, otherwise it will vomit!]

Lin Yue carefully read the system instructions and, after confirming that the "man-eating flower" only devoured living beings, placed it on the ground with peace of mind. Ever since it accidentally swallowed Lin Yue once, the "man-eating flower" seemed to remember her taste. Now that it was on the ground, it didn't even look back at her. Instead, it lunged forward with its neck and bit directly into the swarm of mosquitoes.

Then, Lin Yue noticed that the black cube in front of her was missing a corner.

so smart?

Lin Yue took a step forward and saw Han Weiyi huddled in the middle of the mosquito net, scratching herself, through the empty corner. Unfortunately, less than a second later, mosquitoes squeezed in from the side, and the corner was filled again.

Tsk tsk, what is Han Weiyi carrying around? Why is she attracting so many mosquitoes?

Just as Lin Yue was about to ask Han Weiyi a question, a series of system notifications rang in her ears. [Killed 1 Level 1 Mosquito, +1 point, current points: 30.]

[Killed 1 Level 1 Flying Mosquito, +1 point, current points: 31.]

【Kill...】

[Killed 1 Level 1 Flying Mosquito, +1 point, current points: 44.]

!!!

This "man-eating flower" swallowed a total of 15 mosquitoes in one bite!

Lin Yue couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement. No wonder Han Weiyi was considered a little "lucky charm." This place wasn't the system making things difficult for her at all; it was definitely a treasure trove ready to give her points!

Lin Yue wasn't in a hurry to ask Han Weiyi why she was attracting so many mosquitoes. She watched as the "man-eating flower" swallowed a mosquito whole and began to chew it slowly. After a long while, the flower still hadn't finished chewing, so she simply wrapped herself in a sheet and went to the other side. She then spent 150 energy points to retrieve another "man-eating flower" in the Plants vs. Zombies game.

Luckily, she had just dug into the bamboo rat burrow and found two wooden boxes, otherwise the empty boxes she had on her would not have been enough.

Lin Yue took out the empty wooden box that had originally contained the blueprints and planted the "Man-Eating Flower No. 2" on it. A few seconds later, seeing that the large purple flower had taken root and was firmly established, she placed it on the other side of the mosquito net.

"Awooo—chew, chew, chew," the second "man-eating flower" pounced on it happily and began to chew it up. Lin Yue was delighted to gain another 15 points.

This time, Han Weiyi seemed to have noticed something too. Her eyes were fixed on the small hole that the "man-eating flower" had gnawed at, and she tentatively waved her hand: "Sister, is that you?"

Lin Yue smiled slightly and replied, "It's me, Wei Yi. Wait a moment, don't rush."

"Okay! I'm not in a hurry!" Han Weiyi's voice became cheerful. After replying, she focused on pinching a cross on the small bump on her hand that had been bitten.

Han Weiyi had heard of a method before: if you get bitten by a mosquito and don't have any medicine on hand, you can just pinch a cross on your hand to stop the itching. She didn't know if it was true or just a placebo effect, but she felt it was somewhat effective.

While the "man-eating flower" was working hard, Lin Yue wrapped herself in a bed sheet and wandered around a few times, intending to look for the ingredients for the detoxification pills.

Han Weiyi was bitten by a mosquito. Although the bite didn't break her skin, it caused bleeding after a while, leading her to suspect it might be due to poisoning. However, since the venom wasn't strong, it would eventually be metabolized on its own. In any case, it's always good to have some medicine on hand.

The system showed that the herbs needed for the Detoxification Pill were honeysuckle, forsythia, and violet. Lin Yue recognized honeysuckle, but she would have to try the other two one by one.

Fortunately, Lin Yue had plenty of time. Han Wei's location seemed to be in the southeast corner of the floating island, which should be considered relatively remote, and there were no other players around.

Besides eating mosquitoes, the "man-eating flower" also seems to attract mosquitoes. Although it is not as effective as Han Weiyi's "human mosquito attractor", it is more attractive to mosquitoes than Lin Yue herself.

Therefore, most of the mosquitoes that were swarming around Lin Yuefei had been attracted to the "man-eating flower," and her field of vision had become much wider.

There weren't many medicinal herbs around, and Lin Yue was just about to explore further when she suddenly saw the roots of the first "man-eating flower" begin to wriggle in a peculiar way, its entire body twisting into a wave-like shape.

What happened? Did I overeat?

Lin Yue quickly went over to check on the situation. She had only taken the first bite! Her grand plan to accumulate points couldn't be ruined halfway through, could it?

However, just as he approached, the "man-eating flower" suddenly trembled violently, and then its huge mouth opened wide, making a "vomiting" sound, and began to spray.

"puff-"

A few seconds later, a strange thing came out of the "man-eating flower's" mouth.

Lin Yue looked closely and saw that what was vomited looked like sharp needles. These needles were very clean, unlike her own last time, which was covered in the sticky juice of the "man-eating flower". This must be the result of the "man-eating flower" taking control of her.

Lin Yue carefully picked it up and put it in her backpack. She glanced at it and saw: [Flying Mosquito Sting (Normal): The primary attack method of the mutated flying mosquito. Long and sharp, suitable for rapid piercing and striking targets, it has a unique blood-sucking effect. Can be equipped or modified; equipping it increases attack by 2.]

Lin Yue was overjoyed. It was a weapon! And a weapon with a life-steal effect!

Although its attack power is not high, its life-steal property makes it difficult for even ordinary high-quality weapons to match.

Although this "man-eating flower" ate 15 mosquitoes before spitting out a handful of mosquito stingers, the forest is swarming with mosquitoes, so the chances of dropping equipment are not low!

Lin Yue stared intently at the second "man-eating flower." After more than thirty seconds, the giant "man-eating flower" let out a loud burp and then began its second round of feeding.

Okay! None of the 15 this time were mutated mosquitoes. No worries, there's still a chance!

Time slipped away as she searched for herbs and picked up mosquito stings. After learning that Han Weiyi was temporarily safe, the others stopped rushing on their way.

About an hour later, Zhou Zeyang, Liang Dong, and Zhao Lei arrived from different directions.
