The hospital's diagnosis results came out.

It's chemical poisoning.

"So why do you have this in your cup?"

In the hospital corridor, Li Song and Chu Zehuai looked at the two people lying in a row in the ward, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I'm a plant-side awakener, so it's normal for me to drink this."

Bai Yu stood next to the two people and didn't expect that his happy drink would knock them down.

However, compared to these two people who have nothing to do with him, he is more concerned about Chu Zehuai's injury.

He turned his head to look at the bandages wrapped around the other person's wings. Just now, Chu Zehuai flew in directly from the hospital window holding Ning An in one hand and a cup in the other, so he didn't know the extent of the wound.

I clearly told the other party not to do strenuous exercise... But thinking about how I accidentally left the plant happy water in the room and knocked Ning An down, Bai Yu finally moved his lips and said nothing more.

He shifted his gaze from Chu Zehuai to the patient behind the glass door and saw that Sal, who had woken up, was greeting him and inviting him to come in and sit down.

...

...

The effects of plant happy water appear quickly and disappear quickly.

Less than half an hour after being sent to the hospital for gastric lavage, Sal had recovered 90% of his health.

"Do you want to apologize to me?"

After obtaining the consent of the medical staff, Bai Yu walked into the ward, stood beside the other person's bed, and asked.

The corners of Sal's mouth twitched. Although he was the one who started the incident, it was obvious that he had suffered more damage.

But these are not important. What is important is that he still has some things to say to Bai Yu.

"Do you still remember what I talked to you about before?"

Sal leaned on the white quilt of the hospital and raised the corners of his lips towards Bai Yu.

"If you mean a one-night stand, I still remember it and my answer would not change."

Bai Yu rejected the other party's pairing application without hesitation.

"Besides this, I have something else to tell you."

Sar hooked his finger, signaling Bai Yu to come closer.

"What I said before, I also have what Lin Shuishui has, and I also have what Lin Shuishui doesn't have. Do you know what those two things are?"

Bai Yu was successfully aroused by his curiosity: "What is it?"

"The first one is this. All S-level awakeners have it."

Sal tilted his head and pointed at his neck.

He also had a monitor at home that was extremely similar to a collar, but his mental condition was much better than Lin Shuishui's, so he was not required to wear it.

If Bai Yu likes to play the "master, collar, puppy" game, he doesn't mind doing this kind of activity that is beneficial to physical and mental health with the other party.

"As for what Lin Shuishui doesn't have, I still have something..."

After seeing Bai Yu's slightly widened eyes, Sar smiled evilly, with undisguised pride in his tone.

"That's naturally my 28cm size--mmmm!"

With a loud "bang", Sal's head was pressed into the wall by a hand without hesitation. Under the huge impact force, the opponent who had just recovered fainted again.

Chu Zehuai glanced at a certain wolf coldly and withdrew his hand: "Bai Yu, don't get too close to him."

"I see."

Bai Yu nodded, his nose moved, and his eyes involuntarily fell on the wound on the other's wing.

"Actually, I just wanted to ask, Captain Chu, you flew all the way here, are you okay with your wound?"

"No, it's just a short distance."

Chu Zehuai shook his head. After seeing Bai Yu's suspicious eyes, he wanted to spread his wings to prove that the other party's worries were completely unnecessary.

Before the wings spread, the phone suddenly vibrated.

[Southern Continent Regional Executive Officer SA: I heard you came to Southern Continent? Is there something important? You didn't even tell me you were coming.]

[Southern Continent Regional Executive Officer SA: I heard that guy Sar is here too? I don't want to see him at all.]

[South Continent Executive Officer SA: It's in Mod City on the edge of the desert, right? I'll be there tomorrow. I've been busy these days dealing with the spore plague. You should have heard of it when you were in East Continent.]

Chu Zehuai simply replied to the other party, then put the phone back in his pocket and leaned against the door frame, staring outside in a daze.

The four continents are not at peace now, and the entire situation is sliding in a direction that is unfavorable to mankind at a speed visible to the naked eye. Among them, the situation in the South Continent is the most severe and bizarre.

Burnt a city, came to Dongzhou and joined the "Death Hotel", and finally jumped into the water and escaped. The S-level pollutant "Fen Ji"

The "Infinite Gallery" whose strength was strangely enhanced and ran all the way from Xizhou to Nanzhou

The strange spore plague seemed to be closely related to the mushrooms they had discovered.

........

Chu Zehuai had a headache.

Why can't the relationship between them and pollutants be a simple one of kill and be killed?

He is not good at exploring secrets and solving mysteries.

Chu Zehuai thought for a long time and finally came up with a reliable guess, but he was interrupted by a sharp shout from the corridor.

"It's the spore disease—"

A figure dressed in snow-white, whose gender could no longer be identified, rushed out and stared at the people in the corridor with greedy eyes.

It really was snow-white in the physical sense - every pore of this humanoid creature was overflowing with snow-white spores, covering it completely, and as it ran, some pores were still emitting spores.

Fine, stringy spores floated all over the corridor.

"Did he come here on purpose to die?"

Li Song sighed. This was the first time he had seen a low-level deformer rushing forward to be killed.

Chu Zehuai silently drew his sword and nailed the spore man directly to the marble floor.

The sound of the sword piercing into the hard stone was heard, and at the same time, the sound of Li Song's complaints was also heard.

"I thought you were going to leave it to me."

"Who told you to talk?"

"I haven't dealt with this kind of aberration yet."

"It's nothing special. You can go back and cut mushrooms to experience it."

A buzzing sound was heard, and the doctors and nurses hiding nearby turned on the ventilation and purification system and contacted the Mod City Investigation Bureau in time. Then several nurses went fully armed to move the bodies of the spore men.

Mod City is just a small city, and this hospital is also just a small hospital.

Seeing the poorly equipped nurses trembling as they moved the spore man's body, Chu Zehuai poked Li Song and said, "Go and help."

He did not perceive any danger from this spore man. Even if the latter had the ability to infect, he could not infect him.

But ordinary people are different.

"Why don't you do it yourself?"

Li Song resigned himself to carrying the spore man. The latter was lighter than he thought, not even heavier than that scumbag Aquaman.

"I'm still recovering from my injuries." Chu Zehuai said confidently.

Li Song slowly typed out a question mark.

Who was it who just said "It's okay" to Bai Yu and even spread his wings?

Neither of them noticed that while they were talking, Bai Yu, who was at the back, quietly stretched out his vines—

Then he took a sneaky bite.

So fresh and tender, so delicious.

In the temporarily vacated City Hall in Moree

"Hi, Chu, Sal, long time no see."

The woman in a black robe sat on the chair with a tired look on her face and greeted the two people who came in.

"Not long ago. I remember seeing him just a month ago. Didn't you say you would come tomorrow?"

Chu Zehuai looked at SA, who looked older and more tired than a month ago, and pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Because of the spore plague, the people below told me that there is also a spore disease here in Mod City, so come and take a look. I have been in charge of this matter these days."

SA took out a stack of documents, which were densely packed with reports on the spore disease situation in the South China region, situation analysis and suggestions made by some professionals.

The spores infect ordinary people and lower-level awakeners in large numbers. Once spore disease breaks out in an area, the entire area within a hundred miles will fall within a week.

The spore people who were completely infected were killed and burned directly, and only a portion of the people who were infected were placed in a closed city. Several cities have completely become deserted cities.

Sar also picked up a document and read it for a few minutes. His tone rose in surprise: "Who proposed this solution? Aren't you really afraid that another 'Fen Ji' will appear in your Nanzhou?"

Someone actually suggested burning down the resettlement city and killing all those infected with the spore disease, to completely eliminate the possibility of these people infecting other people again.

Nanzhou is actually crazy at heart because of his beliefs, but he is crazy enough to put such a proposal out in the open.

SA paused and said, "Don't worry about that. I haven't seen any experts come up with any feasible suggestions yet. They are just a bunch of people sitting in an office, talking nonsense based on their own imagination."

Then, she added: "I have asked my men to take them to conduct a field survey. I hope they can find something useful."

Don't just talk big and out of touch with reality all day long.

Even though I find those people annoying sometimes, they are still experts after all, and I can only hope that they can come up with some practical solutions after their investigation.

SA still has a glimmer of hope for the experts from South Africa.

Until she received a phone call.

"The people who went to explore and the accompanying investigators...all disappeared mysteriously?"

**

Chu Zehuai and Sal, who had woken up, left the hospital early. The Nanzhou executives came to Mod City, and there was to be a small discussion among the three executives.

I guess they are discussing the pollution situation again.

Li Songze and Bai Yu lamented the heavy workload of the executive officers and went back to the hotel to rest.

The difference is that the former was really sleeping, while the latter quietly left the hotel without telling most people who were catching up on sleep.

After learning that the spores emitted by the Spore Man would grow into new mushroom pollutants nearby, Bai Yu had a bold idea.

“I smell the mushrooms again.”

In the sunshine, Bai Yu opened a parasol that he had just bought, and walked under the scorching sun of the Nanzhou area, following the fragrance he smelled, while trying to avoid the main roads and pedestrians.

The Nanzhou region is underdeveloped and surveillance is not well developed. As long as you are careful, you will not be captured by these mechanical creations.

[Why do I feel a familiar spiritual power...]

The system muttered to itself while prompting the other party of the monitoring location.

Bai Yu didn't respond. He had just walked to a relatively remote and empty town and was busy looking for mushrooms.

A small portion is consumed, and the rest is stored in the system space.

Mushrooms are indeed fresh when eaten raw, but they can be a bit greasy if you eat too much.

It just so happens that I have a super big pot at home, and there are a lot of hot pot bases of different flavors left over. Whether it is made into a delicious mushroom soup, or dipped in sesame oil after rinsing it in a spicy pot, it is a unique and delicious way to cook it.

Bai Yu thought about all kinds of delicious food and his steps became faster and faster. The vines moved faster and faster in the air, and the number of mushrooms growing in this small town became fewer and fewer.

Suddenly, he stopped and looked back.

A void.

It was so strange, it seemed like something was watching him just now.

Maybe it's an illusion.

Bai Yu turned around and continued looking. After picking all the mushrooms on the main road of the town, he turned to the small road to pick some.

Behind him, a small light golden head appeared, and he felt relieved.

Fortunately, the other party did not discover him.

Being small has its advantages.

Xiang Yang continued to stick his head out to look, and after discovering that the other party turned into a small road and disappeared, he secretly followed him.

"Hmm? Where are the people?"

The boy stood at the intersection blankly, his green eyes staring blankly at the empty path, until a cold hand grabbed his neck from behind, and a strong force came -

In an instant, the world spun around, Xiang Yang's back slammed hard against the ground, his chest was pinned down by the opponent's knee, and he felt a suffocating pain in his neck.

The blue sky and white clouds of the Nanzhou region flowed through those light green eyes, and along with them appeared a face that was strange yet eerily familiar.

"I said, how could I be delusional?"
