The Fresnel team moved forward slowly during constant calibration. Suddenly, Wang Xiao, who was walking in the front, felt a different feeling under his feet.
It was a noticeable bulge that looked particularly strange in the vast wilderness.
As a superpower with physical differences from ordinary people, Wang Xiao's resistance at the conscious level is not that strong. Although he can still think along the way, he often feels dazed.
As Wang Xiao, who was at the front, stopped, there was a noticeable delay among the people behind him.
They first continued to move forward according to instinct, and then they realized something and also stopped and looked at the leader.
Wang Xiao picked up something from the ground and looked carefully, it was the package left behind by everyone.
I opened it and took a look, and saw that it contained nutrient paste and fresh water.
this……
Everyone's brains were half shut down and they fell into deep thought. The question now was, can this thing really be eaten?
First of all, where did this thing come from?
Except for Wang Xiao, who could occasionally hear Lin Qingliu's prompts when wearing a helmet, the rest of the people felt that this matter had something to do with "thoughts".
Wang Xiao inevitably thought of Lin Qingliu's late-night instructions before leaving the city, but he couldn't say such things out loud now.
After all, in the eyes of his teammates, only this super-powered person can deliver items over such a long distance.
But the guy who reads "Nian" should have already...
Right?
So the origin of this thing is unknown now, which makes it a bit difficult to swallow.
"How about we vote by raising our hands?"
The puppeteer who was controlling Fresnel's body asked tentatively.
At this moment, although she looked like the captain, she did not have the courage and prestige in this regard. When faced with this decision that could cost her life, she subconsciously wanted to rely on her teammates.
She also couldn't give up her body and let Fresnel come back online to take charge of the situation in a short period of time, because if she did so, the resulting feeling of weakness would immediately begin to backfire, not only affecting the team as a whole, but also making it impossible to perform the next possession operation.
Just when several people wanted to raise their hands to choose sides, Wang Xiao felt that things couldn't be arranged this way, so he interrupted the vote that was about to begin:
“I have an idea, I’ll eat first, and then you guys observe.
"My body has been strengthened by my abilities, and is very resistant to negative effects such as toxins.
"If there is no problem after eating it, everyone can eat it. If there is a problem, you can leave me behind and move on."
After saying that, Wang Xiao seemed to not want to put moral pressure on his teammates, so he took out the nutritional paste and water without asking anyone's opinion and put them into his stomach in big gulps.
Fifteen minutes later, with the initial digestion and absorption of the food in the stomach, Wang Xiao not only did not feel any negative effects, but his mind became clear.
He twisted his neck and looked around, and found that the remaining three teammates were staring at him blankly.
When I change my position, their gaze will shift over little by little after a few seconds.
Wang Xiao looked up at the sky and discovered that the sun had already set, but they had not noticed anything before.
The erosion of the biofield is so terrifying...
After regaining consciousness, Wang Xiao felt deeply the horror he had just experienced. Without Fresnel's ability last night, they were almost wiped out by those plants that could move and attack.
If they continue to be eroded, the five of them may not survive the night.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Wang Xiao quickly made a food plan, allocated portions to each person and supervised them while they were eating.
Soon, as the sky grew darker, several people in the team regained consciousness.
Seeing this scene, the puppeteer wanted to end the possession. After all, it would cause certain damage to the original owner of the body if it lasted too long, but Wang Xiao rejected this proposal.
He planned to let the puppeteer maintain the current state until they arrived at Hope City. This was a very safe approach to prevent the weakness caused by Fresnel's sudden awakening from affecting the subsequent journey.
As for dragging the life-support capsule and the body inside, it was not a big deal for Wang Xiao at the moment.
The matter was decided in this way, and before he knew it, Wang Xiao had become the one with the most say in the team except Fresnel.
The detonation of the energy battery and this incident invisibly earned him a lot of prestige in the team. The other people subconsciously began to try to rely on this introverted but reliable teammate.
The group traveled south day and night, and nothing could stop them along the way.

Seeing that everyone had returned to normal, Lin Qingliu took Fulan and left the desolate wilderness.
"Master, what shall we do next?"
"Well, that's a good question, but please note that it's not about what we do, but what you and I do separately."
Fran's cat showed a surprised expression on his face:
"Master, are we going to split up now?"
"You don't seem too scared, which is good. I thought you were going to say something cheesy like 'are you abandoning me?'"
"How could that be? Fran has a very good memory. You said before that I can start fighting in the wild after I advance to the second energy level."
"Sure enough, you're still thinking about your jungler."
Lin Qingliu, who was in a wooden state, shook his head, feeling that this cat was just as he had expected.
They landed on the ground, and Lin Qingliu pointed in the direction they came from and said:
"I am going to go collect my share of the spoils now, and you can of course start 'hunting' according to the plan we planned before. Now I will repeat the list of tasks I assigned to you before."
"Flan got it!
"The first task is to use my special physique that won't be affected to survey the topography around Hope City, make reports every once in a while, and assist in drawing maps.
“The second task is to search for human remains or settlements while surveying, as well as other organisms that have not been affected and assimilated by the hyphae.
"The third task is to investigate the location of the alien beast in the mycelium ecosystem and try to communicate with it..."
"Well, not bad. Do you still remember the precautions and risk avoidance measures?"
"Remember, don't provoke those hyphae easily. If there is danger, they will establish a connection with you through the blood in their bodies."
"Very good, go ahead, I know you have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
"Great! Goodbye, Master, meow~"
Fran jumped from the wooden man's arms to the ground and quickly disappeared in the dead grass.
Lin Qingliu returned along the way he came, and found the armor left by Wang Xiao through the induction and connection between him and the broken finger of the wooden man.
After putting the wooden man's body inside, Lin Qingliu began to control the thing and ran towards Hope City.
