The sound wasn't harsh; instead, it possessed a strange rhythm, like music from a nightmare. Each wriggling movement filled the laboratory with an odd atmosphere.
The writhing of the maggot swarm was not only awe-inspiring in its sheer number, but also displayed an incredible harmony within its collective form. They seemed to resonate, acting in unison without any chaos or disturbance. This massive swarm created a vortex of life in the laboratory, exuding a mysterious and eerie atmosphere.
Xiao Lin suppressed his nausea and even thought Dr. Fu's suggestion was very feasible.
With resources already scarce, people are consuming black-spotted mushrooms for extended periods without meat intake, leading to nutritional deficiencies. While they may fill the stomach, it's far from sufficient. Although maggots are disgusting, they are still much better than eating human flesh.
So Xiao Lin said to Dr. Fu, "Dr. Fu, your discovery is a fortunate thing for the base. I will immediately send people to assist you in establishing the maggot breeding facility."
News of the maggot breeding plan spread throughout the base, quickly attracting widespread attention. Xiao Lin dispatched personnel to convey the importance and feasibility of maggot breeding to the base residents. Meanwhile, to ensure the smooth implementation of the maggot breeding program, he swiftly assembled a professional breeding team, personally led by Dr. Fu.
First, a single-story building was selected, and a special maggot breeding shed was built inside. Since no temperature or other conditions are required, maggot breeding is quite convenient.
Adult flies lay their eggs safely in a special glass enclosure, while the newborn maggots are fed in another transparent glass enclosure and grow stronger day by day.
The maggots grew at a speed that surprised everyone; they grew rapidly, their large bodies wriggling inside the transparent glass enclosure.
In about three days, the maggots grew to be large and plump, and were ready to be eaten; their growth rate was incredibly fast.
When the residents of the base first heard the news, they were overjoyed because they had all experienced the despair of hunger, and the black mushrooms in front of them provided the residents with the most basic psychological support.
Nowadays, people don't feel too averse to maggots; in fact, they're somewhat eager to try them, since many people haven't eaten meat in a long time.
That being said, when people redeemed the points from the store and received white, still-wriggling maggots, many vomited right there on the roadside.
When the people eating in the base's canteen saw the plate of mushrooms with black spots and maggots, many of them were initially hesitant to eat it, and some even vomited in the canteen.
This scene caused many people in the cafeteria to vomit.
Hai Dong asked, "Is this thing really edible?" Looking at the black and white food in front of him, Hai Dong couldn't help but vomit. Ling Feng, who was sitting opposite him, originally wanted to open his mouth to try a bite, but when he saw that Hai Dong had vomited, he couldn't help but vomit as well.
And so, the sounds of vomiting rose and fell in the cafeteria, mixed with the smell of stir-fried mushrooms and maggots. For a time, no one could enter the entire floor, not to mention the extremely high temperature and stuffy air.
And so, the aroma lingered in the air for quite some time.
Looking at the scene inside the base, Xiao Lin deeply regretted using his mental detection to observe. He then put away the mental detection, took out a plastic bag, stuck his head inside, and vomited.
