Zuo Rong almost collapsed. He watched helplessly as his body moved uncontrollably, but he was helpless.
Weird laughter came from his mouth from time to time. Who would have thought that as a puppet master, one day he would be controlled?
He knew very well what was captured in the chip he handed to Zhan Song, because the videos were made by the people of Huaguoshu.
At the place where the two sides fought, 'corpses' painted with gory makeup lay miserably on the ground, pretending to be lifelike cadavers. It would be a waste for them not to be actors!
Everyone in Zhan Song carefully checked the contents of the chip and never thought about the possibility of it being fraud.
The traces of the battle were clear at a glance, and based on Ji Ming's understanding of Huo Yin, that man wouldn't bother to do this kind of fake acting.
Little did he know that Huo Yin was no longer the righteous man he had been before after escaping from death. To achieve his goal, he doesn't mind using any means.
"Why didn't you bring Huo Yin's body here?" Ji Ming stared at Huo Yin's body, still a little unconvinced."If you want to see the corpse, please send someone to find it yourself." Zuo Rong coldly replied, "Anyway, my mission has been completed, and you should fulfill your promise."
"This is no problem." Tyson waved his hand and asked his men to fetch a box and handed it to Zuo Rong.
Zuo Rong opened it and looked at it, then faintly said: "The five spiritual cores agreed upon."
Tyson's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "Haha, it was my men who were negligent." After saying that, he asked someone to add 5 more spiritual cores.
He was just testing Zuo Rong just now. After all, he has countless puppets and few people have seen his true face. In other words, anyone has the opportunity to impersonate him.
It's a pity that Tyson forgot that there is Su Mo in Huaguoshu who can read minds.
Zuo Rong nodded expressionlessly, lifted the box, and spoke out again: "I have another piece of information here. I wonder if you are interested?"
"Oh? What information?"
"I found the location of the plant herd."
Tyson and Ji Ming were overjoyed at the same time and asked: "Where is it?"
Zuo Rong just smiled arrogantly and didn't reply.
Tyson restrained his expression: "Your conditions?"
"This time, I want 30% of the source cores."
Tyson was silent.
Zuo Rong continued: "In order to deal with Huo Yin and those people this time, I lost a lot of brothers. If not, I would not have shared this information with you."
Tyson still didn't speak.
Zuo Rong waved his hand and turned to leave: "You guys should think about it slowly. Don't forget that Huaguoshu still has a lot of fighting power. If they know that their captain has been killed, they will definitely take revenge"
When Tyson heard this, his expression slightly changed, and he made a decisive decision: "I agree to your proposal."
Zuo Rong had a sly smile on his face, thinking in his heart: Haha, it’s another group of unlucky people who will give their lives to others.
Huo Yin made the calculations about the people, and they were all linked together, and no one was left behind.
The coordinates of the plant beast he asked Zuo Rong to give to Tyson and others were correct.
The difference is that Huaguoshu is now hidden in the dark, while Zhan Song is blatantly standing in the light.
Regarding the plant source nucleus, they certainly won't inform other teams.
Without Huo Yin in charge, and without the help of Yuan Chu, Su Mo and others, Tyson would not take the remaining
Huaguoshu members seriously.
However, in order to reduce casualties, he still chose to attack before other Huaguoshu members could react.
If Tyson had been more cautious and sent someone to investigate, he wouldn't have fallen into the trap so easily.
Sometimes, there is just a thin line between being decisive and being aggressive.

The forest is silent at night, with only the cold wind blowing and the faint sounds of animals.
In the Huaguoshu camp, most of the members were asleep, and only a few people gathered around the fire to keep vigil.
At this moment, there was a sudden rustling sound deep in the forest, and a few coquettish flowers bloomed quietly in the darkness, exuding a strong fragrance that drifted towards the campground of Huaguoshu in the night wind.
"There's a situation!" A Huaguoshu member's face changed drastically. As soon as he yelled three words, he fell to the ground, and several other members followed in his footsteps.
Ten minutes later, the fragrance in the air gradually dissipated, and the people of Zhan Song came out of the woods one by one.
When Ji Ming closed his hands, several demonic flowers rotted and withered, turning into a pile of flower mud in the blink of an eye.
In a place with lush trees, as a botanist, he has the natural environmental advantage.
"Mr. Zuo Rong's men are really full of talents. This unknown brother can actually help us hide our whereabouts and avoid enemy detection." Tyson boasted.
Zuo Rong lightly said: "Captain Tyson is praising too much. This botanist in your team is really powerful. He knocked down dozens of people with just a wave of his hand."
"Haha, isn't this thanks to you for creating such a favorable conditions for us?"
The two exchanged business blows as if no one else was watching.
"The Huaguoshu team is nothing more than this, huh." A member of Zhan Song kicked a Huaguoshu member on the ground with disdain.
"Don't waste your time." Tyson ordered, "Deal with them all, leave no one alive, collect the loot, and then concentrate on dealing with the group of plant beasts."
"Okay~"
Just as the members of Zhan Song were preparing to take action, a rumble came from the ruins not far away.
"What's going on?" Tyson narrowed his eyes and looked cold.
"The group of plant beasts seemed to be disturbed by something." A member of the Zhan Song reported back.
"Is it someone from another team?"
"No suspicious persons were found."
Tyson pondered for a moment and ordered, "Chris, you leave three brothers to deal with the aftermath, and I'll take the others over to take a look."
"Okay."
After giving the instructions, Tyson and the others ran towards the ruins. Chris and the other three stayed where they were, looking at a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, with evil smiles on their faces.
In the ruins, the herd of plants moved back and forth frantically, the soil churned, the leaves fluttered, and the airflow seemed to become sharp.
Ji Ming hid in the bushes and carefully felt the changes in the plants. After a while, he suppressed his excitement and said: "There are too many of these plant beasts. We cannot fight head-on. I will lure the monsters, and you are responsible for hunting them."
"No problem." Tyson stared at the group of plant beasts with fiery eyes.
After he assigned the tasks, Ji Ming immediately started to attract monsters.
Sprinkling a handful of seeds, several vines grew rapidly under his urging, shooting towards the nearest plant beasts, wrapping around their trunks, and pulling them in a certain direction.
The plant beasts waved their branches angrily and rushed toward them with dust.
Ji Ming smiled and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you next."
Tyson was about to give an order, but then he paused and asked in a deep voice: "How many did you pull?"
"Five, is it too few?" Ji Ming wondered.
"Do you think those are five?" Tyson pointed forward with an ugly expression.
Ji Ming turned his head and looked around, only to see five plant beasts leading the way, with great momentum.
Behind them, branches and leaves danced wildly, landslides and tsunamis filled the area with darkness, and the earth shook.
Ji Ming opened his mouth wide, watching this scene in disbelief. He obviously only pulled five, why did so many come???
"Withdraw!" Tyson immediately issued the order without any regard for accountability.
However, just as they were preparing to retreat, the ground beneath their feet suddenly sank, and a group of people fell into the pit unprepared.
The pit was not deep, but it seriously disrupted the rhythm of their retreat.
After a moment's delay, a black shadow appeared above everyone's heads.
Looking up, several huge leaves were like outstretched wings, floating in the air, covering the starry sky, and then fell down in feathery leaves.
"It's the Demonic Feather Grass!" Someone exclaimed.
"Stay in formation and prepare to fight!" Tyson gave the order, officially starting the battle between humans and plants.
At this time, on a mountain peak not far away, Huo Yin and the others were watching the battle in the dark.
After seeing Zhan Song and others surrounded by a herd of plants, Huo Yin turned to Sa Bu and asked, "Have you determined the location of the level 12 elite monster?"
Sa Bu nodded.
"Okay, let's deal with that elite monster first." Huo Yin glanced at Ji Ming in the battle, then decisively turned around and led his teammates to run in the other direction.
"Huh? Isn't it a Nepenthes?" Feng Chenxiu stared at the tall tree in front of him.
"What a strong pressure, this should be the Qianfeng Tree, right?" Su Mo was amazed.
"You are mistaken." Sa Bu pointed out,
"The elite monster is not the Qianfeng Tree, but the flower on top of the tree. "
Everyone looked together and saw a flower the size of a washbasin hanging on a tree dozens of meters away.
The stamens were golden, the petals were a cascading purple, white and red, with a little black at the tip. It looked quite beautiful.
"You think that flower is the elite monster?" Feng Chenxiu whispered.
"It's strange, I clearly feel the pressure coming from the Qianfeng Tree." Su Mo looked at Sa Bu doubtfully.
Sa Bu explained: "I didn't pay attention to the flower at first, until I accidentally saw it break away from a pitcher plant and climb up the Qianfeng tree. Then the pitcher plant instantly changed from level 12 to level 5. And that Qianfeng Tree, which is not a mutant beast at all, exerted a 12-level pressure."
Feng Chenxiu was surprised: "So, that flower can give any plant a level 12 strength???"
"To be precise, it's level 12 pressure." Huo Yin said,
"A friend of mine has studied this plant and named it 'Sun Moon Wheel'. It looks harmless in itself and likes to hide from danger. It gives plants level 12 pressure to scare away other enemies. If it fails to repel the enemy, it will launch an attack."
"What is its attack method?" Feng Chenxiu asked.
"It is divided into two types, the sun wheel and the moon wheel. When the sun attack is activated, the color of the petals will be red; when the moon wheel is activated, the color of the petals will be purple. The sun wheel will release a deadly poisonous fragrance, while the moon wheel will spread infectious fragrance to people that affects emotion and make them fall in love."
"Wait, what affects emotions? What fall in love???" Feng Chenxiu thought he had heard wrong, and the others also looked strange.
Huo Yin said seriously: "That's right. What we have to do now is whether to choose to fight the sun or the moon wheel?"
Everyone: “…….” What should I do if I don’t even want to choose!
"By the way." Huo Yin added, "If you choose the moon wheel, you may be parasitized by mealworms after you accidentally fall in love. When the mealworms mature in the body, the host dies."
Everyone: Decisive. Sun Wheel!!!
If it's highly toxic, a gas mask will solve it.
"Are you sure you want to choose the sun wheel?" Huo Yin explained calmly, "The poisonous fragrance of the sun wheel is pervasive, and wearing protective clothing is useless."
Everyone: Why the hell are you doing this? As the captain, are you really okay with destroying the confidence of your team members like this?
At this time, Yuan Chu suddenly said: "Only children make choices."
