In the old days, it was already early summer, but in the northern mountains, the night temperature would still drop below freezing, and sometimes there would even be cold weather approaching minus twenty degrees.
However, the survivability of the mutated plants has also been significantly increased.
Even in the unpredictable cold climate, trees, shrubs and even weeds have tenaciously sprouted new buds.
However, the new shoots are colorful and no longer one-sided green.
While adding brilliant colors to the lonely and cold mountains, it also adds a bit of weirdness.
In a sparse mountain forest, Persephone was walking alone, towards a mountain peak that seemed not far ahead.
That was her next target and the next battlefield she chose.
In an inconspicuous cave on that mountain peak, there was a supply point she set up back then, which contained the necessary supplies of medicine, food and ammunition.
During the battle in the north, Persephone would often leave her retinue to fight alone, especially when she started to attack and defend against the great knights of the Holy Crusade in the middle and later stages.
From the moment she arrived in the north, Persephone set up supply points wherever she went.
Although the items in these supply points can only last for about three years, and are only enough for one or two people, for a ninth-level ability user like her, she only needs to get supplies once during a long field battle.
Often you will have an unshakable advantage.
The forest that Persephone was walking through was very strange.
It was surrounded by giant trees that were tens of meters high.
The trunks reached straight into the sky.
There were only a few branches at the top with sharp brown needles.
These giant needle-like trees are far apart from each other, and it takes tens of meters for one to grow.
The forest floor is covered with half-meter-high shrubs.
It's obviously not the growing season, but these shrubs are already full of tender green leaves.
In fact, those giant trees have no ability to support themselves through photosynthesis.
Invisible underground, their root systems are extremely developed and are almost densely distributed throughout the entire forest.
As for those low shrubs, they grow on their root systems, and the nutrients synthesized will most likely be robbed by the huge conifers.
Shrubs are like slaves to needlewood.
There was a reason why Persephone chose this forest.
This forest seems sparse, but in fact it is connected.
As long as someone enters the forest, the needles in the entire forest will react.
If someone is familiar with this place, it will not be difficult to judge whether someone or an animal has entered the forest from the reaction of the needle wood.
It is even possible to judge how many people are there and from which direction.
Persephone had come to this forest when she was chasing a great knight.
The great knight of the Holy Crusade was originally at a disadvantage.
If it weren't for Persephone's evil intentions, he would never have been able to escape so far.
But in this forest, he suddenly seemed to know Persephone's whereabouts very well.
In the non-stop guerrilla war, he almost suffered a big loss from Persephone who was caught off guard.
However, the difference in ability level between the two was too great, and in the end, the Great Knight, who had the advantage of being at home, fell into the hands of the cunning Persephone.
After the battle, Persephone carefully inspected the forest and finally discovered the secret of the needlewood.
So a supply point was set up next to this forest covering hundreds of square kilometers, ready to be used as the home ground for the final decisive battle in times of crisis.
But the idea at the time was just in case.
Deep down in her heart, she even thought she would never use this home court.
I didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
At this time, Persephone was completely different from before.
First of all, her long gray hair had been cut into short pieces.
The uniform on her upper body was also in tatters.
She simply tore it into strips and tangled them in vital places.
Wrapped in lined combat underwear.
The lower body was simply modified from a short skirt into shorts that were more suitable for fighting, and the dark stockings were long gone.

That thing is purely decorative and will only be a drag in real combat.
Although black-framed glasses have a variety of built-in detection functions, they are discarded because electronic devices can reveal their whereabouts.
At this moment, Persephone was like an icy and unparalleled wild female warrior, instead of the old-era office girl who combined simplicity and seduction.
She was also dragging a body in her hands.
This was a very strong man, with dozens of large and small incisions on his body, the deepest one directly opened his chest.
Although the corpse's skin color showed that it had been dead for some time, his eyes that had long lost their luster were widened, and his face was filled with disbelief and shock.
Persephone only knew that this guy was called No. 3.
Whether he had another name was not her concern.
Walking to the center of the forest, Persephone stomped on the ground.
Immediately, shrubs flew everywhere, the soil surged, and a shallow pit with a radius of two meters appeared where she landed.
The bottom of the pit was full of intertwined roots of needles and trees.
She waved her hand and threw the body of No. 3 into the pit.
The roots of the needlewood trees immediately seemed to come alive, growing at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye.
Within a few minutes, the body of No. 3 was densely covered with roots of the needlewood trees.
Hollow sharp thorns sprouted from the roots, piercing into the corpse of No. 3, sucking the flesh and blood, and the corpse of No. 3 quickly shriveled up.
The needlewood roots themselves were twisting tighter and tighter, so tight that the bones were rattling, and then quickly shattered.
In less than ten minutes, No. 3's body had disappeared, not even a bone was left.
The roots of the conifer wood continued to turn over, pulling the mud wood back to its original position, and many seeds of small shrubs popped out from the roots.
The vitality of this small shrub is fully stimulated, and it can grow completely in just one day.
By this time tomorrow, the forest will be back to its original state.
Persephone reached out and touched a needle tree next to her, and she could completely feel the slight vibration that represented joy.
She smiled faintly and continued walking towards the supply point.
Behind her, at least two more enemies were following her, and the unlucky guy codenamed Number Two had two of his legs chopped off by her, and Persephone also crushed his broken legs into pieces.
This number two should have completely lost his combat effectiveness.
Number 4's own fighting ability was not very strong, but those strange eyes had many mysterious abilities.
Persephone discovered that she seemed to be able to see images from a few seconds ago.
If the ability is used properly, No. 4 will be a very troublesome opponent, but her weakness is also very prominent, that is, she must have someone to cooperate with her.
Otherwise, with her at most one or two combat abilities near the seventh level, she would die in Persephone's hands in a single encounter.
There is another number one, which is the real trouble.
In a duel in the wild, Persephone was at least 70-80% sure of killing this pale young man.
But No. 4 always acts with No. 1, which is more difficult.
Moreover, Persephone needs to fight quickly.
If it drags on for a long time, perhaps their reinforcements will arrive.
Therefore, Persephone finally decided to use this forest as the cemetery for No. 1 and No. 4.
For some unknown reason, the task force that was originally part of a unit had disagreements during the tracking process.
The final result was that No. 1 and No. 4 went all the way, while No. 2 and No. 3 chased down in the other direction, trying to separate and join forces to attack in one fell swoop.
Kill Persephone.
Numbers 2 and 3 were obviously very unlucky because they were chasing in the right direction.
So in front of Persephone, whose combat power exploded instantly, No. 2 and No. 3 only managed to hold on for three minutes before being completely defeated, unable to survive until No. 1 and No. 4 came to support.
A moment later, Persephone arrived at the preset supply point, ate up all the nutrients, treated her injuries, and opened a button-sized micro-instrument.
Three laser beams are projected from the instrument, forming a three-dimensional head of a man in the air.
The originally handsome face was covered with blood and dust, and the golden hair was covered with gunpowder smoke, and the original color could hardly be seen.
Persephone recognized this man as Renfield at a glance.
Renfield smiled bitterly and said intermittently: "General Fannie, I am very reluctant to send you this message.
Ward is dead, and all your followers and my brothers have died in the battle.

Bebra A devil has been sent to intercept us.
All I know is Her name was Elena.
My brothers fought to the death and held off this terrible woman.
They asked me to escape so that I could pass this message on to you, if possible.
Able to avenge them."
In the holographic image, Renfield paused for a moment when he said this, and then coughed violently.
A lot of blood foam spewed out from his lips involuntarily.
It was with great difficulty that he stopped.
It seemed that he was about to blow out his lungs.
With a shocking cough, I raised my head and looked at the things that didn't exist in front of me again.
Persephone, who was in front of her, said slowly: "I will go back to the northern base.
If you are looking for me, you will find me there.
But, Fanny, you must be careful about Elena, she is a devil.
To this day, I don’t know what method she used to kill my brothers.”
Persephone's expression was rare and solemn, because when Renfield was saying the last few words, a beautiful woman appeared behind her.
She was wearing a men's black hat, with mischief and mischief shining in her big eyes.
Curious, he almost stuck behind Renfield, looking here with him.
However, Renfield seemed unaware of it.
In an instant, Persephone knew that the person appearing behind Renfield was Elena.
As for why we know it, it can only be attributed to intuition.
Renfield uses holographic encrypted messaging to send signals, and the signal can be received within hundreds of kilometers.
What Persephone had in front of her was a completely passive receiver, so there was no need to worry about revealing her location, and it would automatically destroy itself after playing the message once.
Persephone rested for an hour and adjusted her body to the best condition before walking out of the supply point.
Numbers 1 and 4 were no longer important, only then could Elena arouse Persephone's interest.
She believed that Elena was here just for herself.
Persephone walked into the center of the needle forest, and Elena's appearance appeared in her consciousness, and then a ray of mental fluctuations radiated out.
If Elena is not far away, I believe she can sense it.
A few minutes later, rustling footsteps sounded in the lonely needle forest, and a woman walked out of the forest.
She was over 180 centimeters tall, wearing a black suit, white shirt, black tie, and the old-era black top.
The top hat seems to have become one of her trademarks.
Persephone's eyes lit up.
She stood in the forest seemingly casually and asked, "Elena" "It's me."
Elena glanced at Persephone up and down with her fiery eyes, then showed a hint of disappointment and said, "Why are you dressed like this?
I originally thought that you and I would have a common topic of taste.
I really don’t understand why.”
"To kill you."
Persephone said with a smile.
Elena took a breath.
She had a look of surprise on her face, and even covered her mouth with her hands.
Her big eyes were full of fear, and she looked like a little girl who saw bugs.
Although, this little girl was not immune.
Too high
