It’s a strange invasion, is it okay for me to fight back?

Chapter 657 Garbled Text
The fused mass of internal organs in the hand below ultimately failed to grow into a complete "person," but instead became a deformed creature resembling a human pig—

It has a head and a chest cavity, but no limbs. The chest cavity is full of internal organs, and at the bottom are a few fingers that connect to sticky tentacles in all directions.

This freak stood upright, just like the humans Feng Ling and Ye Zheng had seen in the city before, as if it were sunbathing.

Plants will grow leaves and bloom when exposed to sunlight.

When this lump of flesh is exposed to the sun, it will only grow proliferative tissue, clumsily mimicking the appearance of a human being under the influence of the genetic memory remaining in the nerve endings.

Feng Ling increasingly felt that this labyrinth suited her temperament. Both she and it could create life, but the difference was that the life forms created by the other were unified with its own consciousness, while the life forms created by the Abyss Mother Nest each had their own consciousness.

Speaking of which, can a single individual in a group of beings with completely unified consciousness be considered an independent life?
This seems to be a philosophical question, so Feng Ling decided not to delve into it.

“If Spring and the God of Life have no other tricks up their sleeves, then apart from being able to erase other people’s consciousness and forcibly merge with them, it seems to pose no threat,” Feng Ling said. “It’s just that it has more branches and a larger sphere of influence, making it a bit more difficult to kill.”

Ye Zheng asked her, "How do you plan to kill him?"

“If we can’t find the main body, we definitely have to find a way to force it out,” Feng Ling thought with her head tilted. “The red dots in the third-person perspective should be those fleshy internal organs. The Taoist priest’s backpack also has a few cans of gasoline. Let’s pour some on them and set them on fire.”

"Wait a minute." Ye Zheng grabbed the rope, turned around and jumped off the kite. As soon as he landed, he grabbed the freak that looked just like Feng Ling and crushed it!
It is clear that she keeps her word and is a person of integrity.

"Alright, now we can burn it." Ye Zheng shook off the sticky residue on his hands, gripped the rope, and climbed back up.

Feng Ling: "Tsk tsk tsk."

The weasel took a gasoline can from its checkered backpack, and Feng Ling violently opened the lid and then kicked the gasoline can down.

After kicking seven or eight buckets in succession, and then throwing a grenade, the woods below exploded in a series of booming sounds, like water being poured into a pot of oil!

Thick smoke billowed and flames spread, but for the vast labyrinth, a single fire seemed insufficient to cause serious damage, and Feng Ling wanted to intensify the fire.

She looked down at the area that hadn't yet caught fire, placed her hand on the back of the kite, and whispered the order: "Burn."

The kite opened its enormous mouth, lowered its massive body, its chest cavity rumbled with air, the temperature rose rapidly, and then flames erupted like a volcanic eruption!
call--

The forest below was engulfed in flames, burning fiercely.

Feng Ling quickly raised the kite high into the sky, avoiding the fire while observing whether there would be any changes in the maze.

"Huh? There are two red dots moving." Feng Ling patted the kite beneath her. "Quick, fly over there."

Ye Zheng asked suspiciously, "The parasites we encountered before didn't move."

"Yes, it's strange, these two are running quite fast." Feng Ling squinted and looked into the distance. "...There's one more now, so there are three. They must be affected by the fire and are fleeing towards the edge of the forest."

From her vantage point overlooking the forest, Feng Ling could vaguely see creatures moving about.

The vegetation in that area was relatively sparse. They nimbly climbed through the gaps in the branches, their body color close to that of the plants. With the leaves obscuring their view, they were not very clear, but they generally resembled lizards.

The lizard darted below, while the kite flew in the sky, the distance between them gradually decreasing.

With only a few kilometers to go, two of the red dots suddenly disappeared.

Feng Ling was taken aback. "Gone?"

"Did we go out of the Eye of Horus's field of vision?" Ye Zheng asked.

"That's impossible. It's only a few kilometers away. My third-person perspective range is twenty or thirty kilometers." Feng Ling frowned. "Either it went into a hole or it got out of the maze. There's only one left. Let's see if we can catch up." Through the third-person perspective, the remaining lizard was also running towards the location where the first two lizards had disappeared.

At this point, the distance had shortened to one kilometer, eight hundred meters, five hundred meters... getting closer and closer, and the vegetation was gradually becoming shorter.

The giant lizard moved among the trees, sensing the unfamiliar presence above, and raised its head to let out a threatening roar!

Feng Ling was slightly surprised. "Is that a dinosaur?"

When lizards grow to a certain size, they look almost identical to the dinosaurs in textbooks.

"How could a dinosaur suddenly appear?!" Ye Zheng wondered. "Could it be the maze boss?"

It's reasonable for her to have this question, since she didn't see any living creatures inside or outside the maze.

"I don't know, let's kill it and see." Feng Ling patted the large kite. "Quick, fly lower!"

The large kite sputtered and descended rapidly.

As the giant creature approached from the sky, the lizard below reacted even more fiercely, roaring again and speeding up its escape!

When the altitude dropped to only a dozen meters above the ground, Feng Ling decisively jumped down, his tentacles slashing like the Grim Reaper's scythe, releasing his mental pressure at the same time!
The lizard's speed was slowed down by the pressure, and several wounds appeared on its body.

Blood gushed out, and it cried out in despair, hoping its companions would return to rescue it. But the inside and outside of the maze belonged to two different spaces, and its voice was destined to be unable to travel.

The steel-blade-like tentacles pierced again, like a thousand arrows piercing the heart!
The lizard twitched a few times, then finally lay still on the ground, its blood gushing out like a spring.

The tentacles deep in the forest smelled the blood and began to move restlessly toward this place.

"Thick-skinned and tough, it's quite difficult to kill." Feng Ling commented, then withdrew her mental pressure and waved to Ye Zheng above, indicating that she could come down.

Ye Zheng jumped down and said to Feng Ling, "The Taoist priest said that the lizard you killed was not the master of the maze."

“I don’t think so either. How could the God of Spring and Life be a dinosaur?” Feng Ling asked. “Did the Taoist priest say what this monster is called?”

Ye Zheng frowned and said, "He said the monster's name is gibberish."

Feng Ling was stunned upon hearing this.

At this moment, Ye Zheng's expression suddenly changed, and he stared at the lizard corpse behind Feng Ling, saying, "It extracted cards! This monster isn't a maze creature; it has cards!"

Feng Ling immediately turned around and, sure enough, saw a silver card slowly emerging from the lizard's corpse.

Feng Ling sensed something was wrong and looked up, shouting, "Third brother! Bring the Taoist priest down and let's take a look at this card!"

At that height, a weasel would die if it jumped directly down.

Several young birds grabbed the weasel's claws and tail, flapped their wings, and together lifted the weasel up, then flew to Feng Ling's side.

The weasel landed, trotted up to the lizard's corpse, checked the cards, took out its phone and typed away, then turned around and held up the phone—all in one smooth motion!
[Mid-tier card: Siamese Crocodile]

"A giant lizard with a crocodile card inside its body?! Does that make sense?" Ye Zheng exclaimed in surprise, turning to look at Feng Ling, only to find that Feng Ling's expression had become extremely gloomy.

Feng Ling's eyes flashed with a chilling light as she said in a cold voice, "Of course it's unreasonable, because this lizard doesn't belong here. Someone deliberately fed it cards."
