How to properly utilize the nearly infinite biomass underground?
Direct absorption is obviously the dumbest way, indirect manipulation or continuous purification is the correct way.
As the creator of the mine, Lachesis wanted to create a place similar to a repeater in the outer city, but his own tall grass could not spread directly there, so he naturally set his sights on Clotho, who could breed large plants to resist erosion.
The strange beast, which was completely corrupted by Him, passed through the high wall, walked towards the misty forest, and found a sapling.
It pulled the sapling out of the soil and inserted it into its body, nourishing the plant with its own flesh and blood, and then began to move towards the place where the Lachesis puppets had dug through.
By the time it reached its destination, it was completely dark.
Several humans with strange expressions picked up the lame beast from the surroundings, and then fell into the depths of the mine together.

The high walls of the inner city of Hope City are now brightly lit.
The battle did not end with the arrival of night, but instead intensified.
The addition of the [Extinction Legion] to the battlefield greatly reduced the casualties of normal soldiers, but this does not mean that humans can stop all the alien beasts here without paying any price.
Those soldiers who lost their ability to fight due to serious injuries were sent to the military camp near the city wall, and were also given the so-called "special medicine" after undergoing surgery.
Their wounds were healing quickly, which made the soldiers ecstatic and rekindled their fighting spirit.
But what awaited them was not a battlefield on the city wall, but a training camp, the training camp of the [Extinction Legion].
When Yan Ming climbed up the city wall and led his team to stop the monsters, the instructor of these soldiers became a strong man known to everyone——
Speaker Arthur (his alter ego).
At this moment, the training camp seemed to have become a production line for the soldiers of the Extinction Legion. The Speaker personally wielded his weapons and taught these people combat skills. Within three days, they would climb onto the city walls to fill the vacancies caused by the previous loss of soldiers.

September 6th, morning.
Ninety-six hours into the battle, the observers in Hope City saw an extremely terrifying scene in their field of vision.
There are eight large alien beasts of the fifth energy level.
There are eight fifth-energy-level creatures, and Wang Xiao cannot kill them all even if he self-destructs eight times, not to mention that these guys are smart enough to learn from their mistakes. Even if the decapitation operation is still effective, there is no way to continue using the previous tactics.
Although Wang Xiao's previous actions seemed smooth and simple, they were actually based on his extreme resistance to attacks and the tacit cooperation of everyone.
And now, seeing those various fifth-level beasts that were more than ten meters tall trampling on their companions to move forward, everyone felt a sense of absurdity.
Can humans really win?
At this moment, even Lin Qingliu, who was as calm as Arthur, couldn't help swallowing.
These guys weren't actually a concern for him, but the problem was that if he allowed them to kill people at will, the defense line would quickly collapse.
But if we talk about opportunities...it's not that there aren't any.
If humans still have a glimmer of hope now, they may have to be grateful to the strange beast that confessed everything after being captured.
Or rather, we should be grateful to the mycelium itself.
It is precisely because their personalities and habits have human shadows that we can analyze Clotho in the same way as we analyze humans to a certain extent.
The research institute happened to have no shortage of analytical talent, and in the past few days, they had carefully analyzed every word spoken by the strange beast, trying to find out the hidden information in them.
And they really gained something...
Looking at the target appearing in the sky, Lin Qingliu asked thoughtfully:
"'Ten Thousand Volumes'."
"I am here."
"How much core energy is left in the spacecraft?"
"35%, what are your instructions?"
“Have you ever seen fireworks?”
“I know the concept of fireworks.”
"The soldiers will see a big fireworks display."

While Lin Qingliu made up his mind for some major actions, another far-sighted guy was also caught in a dilemma of making a decision.
"No, no, no!"
In a dense forest far away from Hope City, all animals and plants have become distorted.
The strange beast and the tree grew together, forming a vortex of flesh that rotated layer by layer. The insects were ready to explode in the last second, and were pierced by unknown branches in the next moment, and no longer had any life.
Those "humans" made of plants, minced meat and original brains now stand there as if the network cables have been unplugged, and the initiator of all this comes from one person, or one consciousness, that is Atropos.
As the ruler of this area, such a thing can happen in an instant as long as He wants.
Everything at this moment was caused by His anger.
His research was progressing, but not in the way He had expected.
If...if this is true, then how can the mycelium continue?
Was their birth a mistake?
This was impossible, and Atropos could not accept it. This was contrary to the areas he was in charge of - learning and evolution, and it could almost cost him his life!
He wanted to call for help and communicate with his companions, but the connection between the three consciousnesses had been completely severed, and as independent individuals, they had no way of being completely honest.
This feeling was like holding a bomb that was about to explode. Atropos didn't know whether he would be supported or kept away after sending out a signal for help.
There are more and more questions, the origin of mycelium, the black tide in the south, and the humans who are getting braver and braver...
The two sides in this war are like two dancers on a tightrope. Not only do they have to try their best to kill their opponents, but they also have to maintain their own balance and survival. This is really difficult.
So at this moment, everything in the strange forest fell into silence, as if the mute button was pressed.
Everything within Atropos's realm fell into a deep sleep as he pondered for a long time.
He will not allow anything here to change until he finds a way to break the impasse.
But there was only one area that was still rumbling, and that was the giant column extending from the biomass mine that Lachesis had given to Atropos.
The biomass reserves that were hundreds of meters high reached an astonishing level. While assisting Atropos in conducting various experiments, they were also supplying biomass support to Clotho.
After purification, these substances exist as part of the body of the mycelial organism that has lost its consciousness.
At this time, the biomass seemed to form a whole and began to whisper as newborns.
