"The other party requires the delivery to be completed within two hours!" Representative Tao's gold-rimmed glasses were covered with mycelium secretions. He was horrified to find that the number of analgesics on the list had been doubled by the mycelium.
Mou Xuan threw the modified can into his arms, and the mycelium instantly fused the tin can into a whole: "Tell them that we have prepared the special fruits from the nuclear contaminated area seven years ago."
The exhaust fan in the underground warehouse suddenly reversed, and Chen Yao's ice crystal dagger drew sparks in the ventilation duct.
When Mou Xuan grabbed her wrist, the collar of the girl's protective suit was already covered with frost: "The resonator of the car chassis is absorbing the energy of the mycelium network. They want to..." The mycelium suddenly wrapped around her throat. Mou Xuan used his teeth to tear open the strap of her mask, and tasted the taste of radioactive dust between their lips and teeth.
"This is the 27th time loop." The man whispered something that Chen Yao could not understand, and the mycelium weaved a countdown in his pupils, "Last time they detonated the methane gas in the sewage pipe." He suddenly pushed the girl towards the refrigerated truck and turned over and jumped onto the top shelf.
The mycelium network at this moment materialized into scarlet veins, wrapping around a can that was thawing twenty meters away - a slug inside a can of yellow peaches was mutating, with metal spikes protruding from its body surface.
As Zheng Moushi's metal prosthetic eye flickered on the surveillance screen, Mou Xuan was crushing the fifth mutant slug with his military boots.
A distorted electronic voice came from the communicator wrapped in mycelium: "Chief Mou, do you mind if we inspect the goods first?" He listened to the strange sound of water flowing from the sewage pipe, and suddenly stuffed half of the slug's body into the communication port: "Remember to bring enough radiation protection clothing, after all, the canned fruit you sent..."
The sound of the explosion came from the third underground floor, and the mycelium network instantly switched to defense mode.
Chen Yao's ice crystal rose bloomed at this time, and the veins on the petals perfectly overlapped with the chassis pattern of the transport vehicle.
Mou Xuan tore off his pus-stained tactical gloves, and the mycelium condensed into three inverted triangular thorns in his palm - exactly the shape of the weapon that pierced his heart in his previous life.
"Notify all psychics to gather in the culture chamber." He put the modified analgesic syringe behind his waist, and the mycelium automatically sewed up the tear in the bulletproof vest. "Ask Researcher Jiang to prepare the neurotoxin spray, and..." He was interrupted by the sudden flashing of an eagle totem on the monitoring screen. The mycelium network transmitted an alarm that the Steel Bone City convoy had broken through the last line of defense.
