Lu Sheng held his breath and carefully kept a certain distance from these fungal people, eventually following them all the way to the top of the mountain.
Surrounded by two towering canyons, even the mountaintop remains dark and damp.
A giant, fragrant mushroom stood majestically atop the mountain, surrounded by a dense swarm of mutated animals drawn by the scent.
These animals prostrated themselves around the giant mushroom as if on a pilgrimage, greedily inhaling the strange, sweet scent in the air.
Lu Sheng leaned lazily against the tree, glancing at the bizarre scene before him out of the corner of his eye, trying to figure out what Xu Bing was really up to.
Sure enough, Xu Bing walked out triumphantly not long after.
The fungal humanoid, disguised as Luo Cheng, respectfully approached Xu Bing and presented a handful of crystal cores, still covered in slime, with both hands. "Master," he said, "I've returned with spoils of war."
Xu Bing nodded and affectionately patted "Luo Cheng's" head.
Having received Xu Bing's praise, the fungal people were so excited that their faces turned red, and their shoulders and arms were even trembling.
The next second, the huge, smooth mushroom trembled slightly, and countless luminous white powders drifted into the air with the tremor.
The alluring sweet fragrance instantly intensified several times, making Lu Sheng's temples throb.
The mutated animals that had been lying around suddenly transformed into bloodthirsty and frenzied monsters, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.
The peaceful mountaintop was instantly transformed into a bloody arena, where countless mutated and berserk beasts bared their fangs and indiscriminately attacked all living beings around them.
Alongside the slaughter, there was also a visible, frenzied evolution.
From Lu Sheng's perspective, he could clearly see that after each round of fighting, the remaining animals on the field would evolve one level.
In just five minutes, the lowest level of the remaining animals in the pool of blood was level six.
The giant mushroom continued to shed powder, driving the bloodthirsty mutant animals even more into a frenzy.
Lu Sheng stealthily approached a spot only ten meters away from the giant mushroom, only then realizing that dozens of corpses were piled up layer upon layer on the mushroom's rootstock.
Although their faces were not clearly visible, judging from their uniforms, they were all members of other bases who came to attend the meeting.
Good heavens! Lu Sheng exclaimed.
Xu Bing is truly an agricultural genius; when there wasn't enough fertilizer, he would hold a meeting to make up for it.
After all that, the so-called alliance meeting turned out to be just a smokescreen; it was just a way to recruit people and use them as fertilizer.
Xu Bing seemed dissatisfied with the animals' progress. After moving his fingers, the giant mushroom grew even larger, and the corpse that had been used as fertilizer had shrunk to the size of a dried-up human.
The increased dose of mushroom powder acted like a stimulant for these mutated animals, intensifying the battle.
Level 7, Level 8.
Fewer and fewer animals were still alive, until finally only two level 8 animals and one level 7 animal remained.
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow slightly. It seemed that Han Rui had guessed correctly; Xu Bing was indeed raising poisonous insects.
Using all the mutated animals on this mountain as a base, the strongest mutated beast is obtained through continuous consumption and evolution.
Mutant beasts, at the same level, are far more powerful than superhumans. Any one of these three, if it fights to the end, will undoubtedly level up to level nine.
What is the concept of a level nine mutated beast? Even if you gathered everyone from K3 and Lingfeng Base together, they wouldn't be enough to fill a mutated beast's teeth.
This was a great plan, but unfortunately I ran into her.
Xu Bing was just unlucky!
Lu Sheng stopped concealing himself and immediately deactivated his invisibility.
The fungal people immediately sensed the presence of a living person.
In an instant, Xu Bing and all the other fungal people's eyes fell on Lu Sheng.
“Impossible… Why aren’t you affected within our fungal miasma zone?” Xu Bing asked, looking doubtful.
Lu Sheng lazily pulled out his Tang sword. "Since you like asking so many questions, you should read more of Blue Cat's 3000 Questions in your next life."
After saying that, Lu Sheng's eyes sharpened, and his long sword flashed with a cold, sharp light as it slashed straight at the giant mushroom.
You like scientific farming, huh? I'll chop all your mushrooms up.
Seeing Lu Sheng attack the giant mushroom, the mimicry fungal beings immediately let out a terrified scream and collectively blocked the blade.
The blade flashed like a moon's shadow, instantly slicing these fungal people in half at the waist.
These fungi have no flesh or blood in their bodies; only white mycelium floats and falls to the ground.
These mycelia landed in the soil and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Upon seeing this, Xu Bing immediately summoned all the mimicry fungi on the mountain.
Not only were they humanoid, but they also mimicked various animals. These fungal monsters surged towards Lu Sheng like a tidal wave, attempting to overwhelm her with their numbers.
Lu Sheng thought for a second, and when he made his move, he was carrying a backpack-style high-pressure sprayer specifically for spraying pesticides.
Teacher Xu is right; we still need to use technology to eradicate fungi.
She quickly pulled out a bottle of ketoconazole shampoo from her spatial storage, poured it into the sprayer at lightning speed, and then filled a box with hot water from her spatial storage to quickly dilute the shampoo.
Lu Sheng, carrying a high-pressure water gun, sprayed the swarming fungal mimic monsters like a school gardener spraying insects on a lawn.
Diluted shampoo is as effective as sulfuric acid against these fungal monsters.
If it gets on your body, it will immediately burn a huge hole.
Lu Sheng leisurely sprayed here and there with the high-pressure water gun, turning these fungal monsters into a pool of black mud in less than two minutes.
This outrageous move stunned Xu Bing, who angrily cursed, "You motherfucker..."
"Let's talk about him, not his mother. Let's all be civilized." Lu Sheng calmly pointed the high-pressure water gun at Xu Bing's mouth. "Let me rinse you out. Be more careful next time."
Xu Bing was so angry she almost twisted her mouth.
What the hell is going on? Who in their right mind would keep ketoconazole shampoo in their personal space?
Now that Xu Bing has retired from the military, he is forced to confront Lu Sheng head-on.
Lu Sheng held a high-pressure water gun in one hand and sprayed it directly into Xu Bing's eyes, while in the other hand he held a Tang sword and slashed it directly at his face.
The long knife pierced Xu Bing's head as easily as cutting tofu, but unexpectedly, there was no blood in Xu Bing's body.
He let out a deafening roar, then his body quickly shrank into a ball like mud.
The next second, a huge amount of powder erupted from Xu Bing's body, and his entire body rapidly expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just over ten seconds, his body swelled to more than three meters in size.
His facial features were completely blurred, and his skin seemed to have degenerated, leaving only a layer of slippery, indescribable skin.
Lu Sheng glanced at it and found it a bit abstract.
After Xu Bing grew to a giant size, he completely lost his human characteristics, and his whole body looked like a three-meter-tall mushroom with hair.
