Chapter 222: Chapter 222 One Thing Suppresses Another

However, the mosquitoes in the jungle could not be permanently eradicated with just one wave, could they?

If they didn’t want to be bitten, they could only stay here and keep killing mosquitoes non-stop.

Just as Li Wenli unleashed the third wave of Wind Blade attack, there was already a thick small layer of mosquitoes on the ground.

Just when they thought they could catch a break, the grass around them suddenly started to move, and Bai Junjun and Li Wenli quickly drew close together.

Then they saw several large plants with mouths attacking them.

The plant was green all over, but the most terrifying aspect was the leaf resembling a mouth on top of its head, within which were fuzzy spikes, each with a drop of crystal-clear pink water, and even an obvious row of sharp teeth on the outermost edge.

Nonetheless, this creature, indiscernible as a monster or a plant, charged at them with its "head" raised.

Bai Junjun told Li Wenli to pull a child each and dodge backward, ready to use their trump card the next second.

To their surprise, the plant suddenly bent down and vacuumed all the mosquitoes on the ground into its mouth.

"???"

Everyone fell to the ground, stunned and dumbstruck, watching as the plant frenziedly pecked at the mosquitoes littering the ground like a chick pecking at grains of rice.

"What’s... what’s going on here?" Li Wenli asked.

Bai Junjun shook her head in shock.

"Aren’t you a plant specialist?" Li Wenli was anxious.

Bai Junjun looked at him somewhat innocently, "The plant department doesn’t need to study history. Strictly speaking, these plants are our ancestors, extinct for thousands of years. Where do you expect me to find information about them?"

"..." Li Wenli could not argue with that.

Since Bai Junjun was unreliable, he had to figure it out himself.

"I guess these are the ancestors of the Mosquito-eating Plant, but the Mosquito-eating Plant has always been stationary, waiting for prey. This is my first time seeing one that actively attacks," he surmised.

Bai Junjun calmed down upon hearing ’Mosquito-eating Plant’: "Who cares why it can move, it’s easy to handle now that we know it’s a plant."

Bai Junjun said so as she activated her Special Ability to connect with the Mosquito-eating Plant, immediately feeling the wild surge of plant energy coursing through the plant’s branches.

Bai Junjun, who had refined energy potions all year round, immediately recognized the type of energy.

This energy was like a stimulant, capable of rapidly enhancing a person’s combat capabilities, and Bai Junjun had never encountered such potent and pure Burst Water before.

Without hesitation, Bai Junjun drew the Burst Water from the plant and then stored it in a Bamboo Tube.

The Mosquito-eating Plant, having been drained of its essence, paused, and its movements visibly slowed down.

However, the other plants continued to twist and writhe, eagerly absorbing the feast on the ground.

"Is there... is there a way to get them to keep up with us?" Li Wenli asked.

If they could have these Mosquito-eating Plants follow them, then the mosquito problem would be solved, wouldn’t it?

Bai Junjun was taken aback when she heard this, as it seemed to make sense! But she couldn’t be certain whether it was feasible.

After all, plants have root systems, and moving them would require physical transportation.

Yet, the Mosquito-eating Plants before them were taller than they were, with even the smallest one boasting three Sepals! It would be tough even for Bai Sasa to carry them.

Bai Junjun could only first try to communicate with them to see how they moved.

What surprised her, upon exploring the root system of the Mosquito-eating Plant, was that the plant had many adventitious roots.

Adventitious roots, as the name implies, have unfixed root systems that can move.
