Chapter 106
"Coolie~"
The chestnut ball kept shuttling through the vegetation, sensing the surrounding atmosphere as it flew.
No plant monsters that meet the requirements have been found so far.
Quite a few ordinary plant monsters were discovered, but they were relatively scattered.
These plants are often hidden in the bushes and are extremely concealed.
Generally speaking, a monster's hiding is of little significance in the face of a Duel Monster.
Based on their duel instincts, all duel monsters can sense that unique monster aura.
The only difference is the degree of feeling.
But plant monsters are different.
They naturally have a hidden characteristic, just like the vitality of beasts and the agility of birds and beasts.
Each monster race has its own characteristics.
The 'hidden' characteristic of plant monsters does not mean invisibility, but rather that they are naturally able to better restrain their own aura.
After their aura is restrained, it is no longer easy for ordinary Duel Monsters to detect them.
And if it is in an environment full of plants, this concealment feature will be more obvious.
Even so, in the perception of Chestnut Ball, this "concealment" based on characteristics is useless.
Lin You and his companions did not take the initiative to provoke those monsters.
These monsters are not secret realm monsters. Even if you kill them, you will not gain any benefit at all. It is just asking for trouble.
Most of these plant monsters are very well-behaved and will not offend others unless they are offended.
The few plant monsters that love to make trouble are also clearly arranged.
As expected, there was no reward after defeating those monsters.
"coolie!"
Suddenly, Chestnut Ball detected several extremely aggressive auras and immediately issued a warning.
Lin You looked over immediately and saw a big tree not far away, which was constantly dripping with orange juice.
On the top of this big tree, there are several huge tomatoes hanging.
These tomatoes have menacing eyes, slit-shaped mouths, and exude a dangerous aura.
"Is that... a killer tomato?"
Lin You recognized it immediately after just one glance.
Although the monsters that appear on the assessment island will not provide data, this monster, if Lin You remembers correctly, should be a plant monster with an attack power of 1400 points.
Just by hearing the name, you can probably understand why they exude such a dangerous aura.
"Ah, another monster appears to block the road?"
Guo Rui also noticed it, but did not show any nervousness.
These killer tomatoes seem to be quite powerful, but he has two great figures, Lin You and Xia Mu, by his side. No matter what, can these monsters be more ferocious than them?
"Huh!"
Those killer tomatoes hanging on the trees began to shake when they saw Lin You and his companions walking towards them as if nothing had happened.
After shaking, they all broke away from the tree. Five or six killer tomatoes were suspended in the air, their eyes looking even sharper and more ferocious.
"Hey, judging from the situation, are you planning to keep pushing forward?"
Lin You stopped and just looked at those killer tomatoes.
The air seemed to freeze at that moment. After staring at each other for a moment, those killer tomatoes suddenly flew out.
"Huh!"
Lin You was not moved at all. With the help of his magic power, a skilled black magician appeared.
Xia Mu did not summon the Origin Card again, but instead summoned a Warrior monster that was not the Destiny Girl.
The weapon of this warrior monster is a broad-bladed axe, heavy and sharp.
This card has an attack power of 1800 points and is also a powerful white star monster.
Guo Rui was not idle either, and released another monster. The name of the monster was very domineering, called 'Flame Demon'. It was not only a flame clan but also had flame attributes, with an attack power of 1,300 points.
Bang!
A burst of black energy directly hit a flying killer tomato.
The killer tomato exploded immediately, splashing out a large amount of tomato juice.
Xia Mu's warrior monster also strode forward, swung the broad-bladed axe in his hand, and completely chopped a killer tomato into pieces.
As for Guo Rui's Fire Demon, he released his combat skills without hesitation. A vortex of flames roared out, enveloping the remaining killer tomatoes.
The vortex continued to burn and the tomato continued to dissolve.
This move cannot cause too much damage to them, but it still affects their movements.
Whoosh, whoosh!
The black energy shock came again, and along with it came a broad-bladed axe.
In a moment, two more killer tomatoes were destroyed.
The vitality of these killer tomatoes is obviously very fragile and cannot withstand high-intensity attacks.
Under such an attack, several shattering sounds were heard one after another.
In less than a minute, these aggressive killer tomatoes were destroyed.
Tomato juice splashed all over the floor.
"It's so fierce. What a pity! There's no reward for solving it."
Lin You shook his head regretfully. If these killer tomatoes could provide gold coin rewards, he wouldn't mind spending more time here.
Sadly, there is no such setting.
Thinking of the gold coins, Lin You couldn't help but mutter, "I wonder if there's a card shop here. It doesn't look like there is one."
But it's just a thought.
The main task at the moment is to find the phantom elf.
The incident with the killer tomato passed quickly, but Chestnut Ball was still continuing to sense.
This time, there are more cards accompanying him, such as the skilled Black Magician and the Flame Demon.
As Chestnut Ball went deeper into the rainforest, he sensed more and more auras.
But these auras are basically from plant monsters.
Some are alone, while others are reunited.
But even after reuniting, they did not move and were not very powerful.
Does not meet the requirements to follow the Phantom Fairy.
On the contrary, the aura of those lone plant monsters seemed even more powerful.
Listening to the chestnut ball's sensory information, Guo Rui couldn't help but wonder, "Are all plant monsters so obedient? They stay still, just to use their concealment abilities?"
"It's a bit strange indeed."
Xia Mu also looked thoughtful. "Although the characteristic of plant monsters is concealment, they don't deliberately use this characteristic unless it is for self-protection or when they intend to hunt."
Lin You thought about it and said, "Could it be the setting of the Assessment Island?"
"Probably not."
Xia Mu shook his head and said, "There are indeed some special settings in this magic field, but this does not involve common sense about cards, and it will not easily change the characteristics of a certain type of monster."
"Doesn't that mean that the current situation is actually abnormal?"
Lin You's mind raced. "They chose to use their hidden abilities, most likely not for 'hunting'. After all, the vast majority of plant monsters didn't attack us. The few that did were mostly violent or vicious monsters like the 'Killer Tomato' just now."
"So, they are protecting themselves. Could this be related to us examinees?"
Guo Rui interrupted and expressed his own opinion.
"It's possible."
Lin You and Xia Mu nodded, thinking that what he said made some sense.
At this moment, the chestnut ball flying in the front issued a warning in vain. It caught the breath of several people.
Those auras were no longer those of the plant monsters from before.
In other words, it was most likely a team of examinees!
The strength of the team that can appear here is self-evident.
