Wasteland Fungus Foraging Guide

Xie Xuan transmigrated to a wasteland world over a hundred years later.

Marine fungi, initially affected by nuclear-contaminated water, were brought back to land by a tsunami, and a spore inf...

Chapter 4: Start working within a second after applying

Xie Xuan was confused for a moment. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to be here to apply for a job, not to report.

But the terminal vibrated slightly again, and a pop-up window popped up: "Congratulations, you have been hired by the 45th Branch of the Sixth District Ecological Bureau, employee number 0."

After this prompt popped up on the terminal interface, it quickly jumped to the employee benefits and employee code of conduct provided by the Ecological Bureau.

Xie Xuan: "...Is this all right?"

Ding Qiaoyun looked up and glanced at Xie Xuan, "Come with me, I'll take you to get your clothes first."

The entire Ecological Bureau was very busy, and even if other people passed by and saw Ding Qiaoyun, they didn't have time to say hello. At most, they nodded and left in a hurry.

Xie Xuan seriously suspected that she had been deceived into some unscrupulous 996 company.

The elevator went up to the sixth floor, and Ding Qiaoyun took Xie Xuan into an office. It was a mess inside, and several people were arguing.

Ding Qiaoyun walked around them as if nothing had happened, went to one of the workstations and knocked on the table.

The man who was typing intently on the computer was startled and looked up suddenly.

"Get the newcomer a set of protective gear. She's probably a D-class psychic. Assign her a team first."

The man didn't say anything. He looked Xie Xuan up and down, then got up and went to the back room.

Ding Qiaoyun pointed at the man's back and said, "His name is Yuanxiao, he's in charge of personnel and logistics."

Xie Xuan nodded, "It's a nice name."

Not long after, Yuanxiao came out holding a large white box.

It looked very heavy, and the table shook when he placed it on it.

Yuanxiao opened the box and began to introduce it to himself, "There are two injections of treatment agent and sedative built into the protective suit. The injection button is on the left wrist."

Yuanxiao put down his protective suit and picked up a small pure white box.

"This is a communicator, connected to Bai Ze, the Ecological Bureau's artificial intelligence. After the mission begins, the monitors in the Ecological Bureau will activate the communicator. After the mission is completed, they will all be shut down. Depending on the danger of the mission, intervention mode may be activated. But I hope you won't encounter a situation where intervention mode is needed."

The last sentence is the only one that Yuanxiao said that carries personal emotion.

Xie Xuan took the small box and opened it, and was caught off guard when she saw a small pure white mushroom growing on the black flocked cloth inside.

It was about the size of a five-cent coin, lying quietly inside, looking harmless.

Xie Xuan was suspicious: "...Isn't this a mushroom?"

Yuan Xiao: "This is Bai Ze. Each communicator is bound to the user after use. Please be sure to keep it carefully. If it is lost, the reporting and replacement procedures are very troublesome."

Xie Xuan picked up the so-called communicator and turned it over to find that it looked more like a small mushroom that had not yet developed.

There is a cap and a stipe, but the stipe is very short and has no hyphae on it.

Even the touch feels a bit soft, but with a little pressure, you can tell that it is completely metal inside.

Yuanxiao: "Put this on your temple. Before turning it on, it only has the positioning function. It will be turned on after entering the mission. Ordinary communication equipment will be interfered with within the field. This communicator can help teammates maintain communication and also get in touch with the outside world."

Xie Xuan, with a rebellious streak, looked over and over at the little mushroom in his hand. "What if the communicator gets circulated? Could someone else transform it into an independent system?"

Yuan Xiao shook his head. "Impossible. Bai Ze has a powerful self-protection mechanism. If anyone tries to modify his program, the communicator will self-destruct. Moreover, each communicator is equivalent to a part of Bai Ze. Even if it can be independent, it will be completely useless."

Xie Xuan nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that her mentally retarded system had nothing to do with Bai Ze.

"Please note that an infection has occurred on the 3rd floor of Area A, 02 Convention and Exhibition Center, 275th Street. Preliminary rating: D-level reproductive field. Estimated time to maturity: 3 hours."

As soon as this announcement ended, the second one sounded.

"All employees, please note that the air humidity has risen to 82%. Rain is expected to begin in ten minutes. Preliminary estimate: light to moderate rain, lasting approximately one hour."

The noisy sound in the noisy office paused for two seconds as if the pause button was pressed, and then broke out into even louder noise.

Ding Qiaoyun had just come back to her senses from being mesmerized by Bai Ze's voice. Seeing that Xie Xuan, a novice, didn't know anything, she kindly offered some scientific advice, "Once it starts to rain, the spores will mature much faster. Generally speaking, spores that take three hours to mature can fully mature in two hours, or even one hour, on rainy days."

"I found the right team." Yuanxiao said to himself.

At the same time, a new message popped up on Xie Xuan's terminal, "You have successfully joined the 320th Squad of the 45th Division of the Sixth District Ecological Bureau."

Ding Qiaoyun gave Xie Xuan a look and said, "Come on, I'll take you there."

Xie Xuan still nodded, "Thank you."

Yuanxiao gestured for Xie Xuan to pick up her suitcase and took her to the center of the quarrel.

"Captain Ling, this is your new team member, Xie Xuan." Yuan Xiao's low voice was unsurprisingly drowned out by the noise of quarreling.

Xie Xuan thought Yuanxiao would say something else to attract Captain Ling's attention, but Yuanxiao turned around and went back to his workstation as if he had completed his task.

Xie Xuan:……?

The Captain Ling that Yuanxiao mentioned was still arguing with the person opposite him at the top of his voice, his face red. He was tall and strong, with a handsome appearance, but there was nothing memorable about him. He only gave people the impression that he was a good person.

Xie Xuan cleared her throat and said, "Captain Ling, I'm your new team member. My name is Xie Xuan."

The quarreling stopped again. Captain Ling turned around and looked at Xie Xuan sternly.

Xie Xuan is actually very pretty. If she wasn't a little pale and thin due to malnutrition, she would look more like a rich girl wearing a princess dress and holding a Persian cat.

But Captain Ling just nodded and said, "My name is Ling Wenqing, and the person next to me is Zhou Yuanyuan."

Ling Wenqing pointed at the young woman standing nearby watching the show.

Completely different from Ling Wenqing, Zhou Yuanyuan is very memorable. She is tall, wears beautiful smoky makeup, a tube top and shorts, and her pink hair is braided into two thin pigtails hanging in front of her.
