Chapter 140 Mutant Serrated Amaranth



"What happened?"

Zheng Qiming led Ye Lin and Yang Songming out of the villa. The huge explosion had made them clearly feel the ground shaking from upstairs. The sound of the explosion was deafening, and it was difficult not to hear it.

Jiang Yue and Chen Yu saluted Zheng Qiming and Ye Lin before standing up straight and reporting to them, "Reporting to the base commander, we were ordered to carry out a guard mission. The superhumans from Qiyuan Base suddenly fired a giant explosive bomb at the villa. Fortunately, Battalion Commander Chen was quick-witted, which prevented the base commander and deputy base commander from being injured."

Ye Lin turned to look at Yang Songming, whose face was also gloomy. Following his gaze, he saw Du Xueting with her head down.

Considering Yang Songming's behavior at the villa just now, this matter must not have been deliberately arranged by him.

Ye Lin lowered his head. What was Du Xueting's purpose in doing this today? Was she deliberately sabotaging the deal between the two bases?

"I wonder what Chief Yang means?" Ye Lin spoke first, his face stern and his tone full of threat. As soon as he said this, all the ability users from the B City base stepped forward, and a sense of oppression immediately came over them.

Yang Songming turned his head with a smile, giving the silent Du Xueting a threatening look, "You're definitely just joking, aren't you, Xueting?"

Du Xueting looked at Yang Songming's smiling tiger-like face and sneered inwardly, knowing that his words contained a threat to her. She immediately smiled and said, "Yes, I just wanted to meet an old friend and have a friendly spar with Battalion Commander Chen."

Yang Songming smiled and looked at Zheng Qiming, "Old Zheng, you see, this is just a friendly exchange. Let's get back to business."

Zheng Qiming's expression was also unpleasant. He sneered, "There's no need to talk anymore. If we keep talking, my villa will be demolished. I'll say it again: you can exchange it, but you can't lose an inch of the 30,000 tons of grain."

Upon hearing this, Du Xueting's pupils contracted. Thirty thousand tons of grain—that was more than half of the 50,000 tons of grain that their base still had left!

Seeing Zheng Qiming's resolute attitude, Yang Songming frowned deeply. But they really needed this machine. He lowered his head to hide the ferocious expression on his face. Just wait. Once they have created a large number of superhumans, they will definitely launch a counterattack on the B City base. At that time, they can get these grains back!

"Okay!" Yang Songming suppressed his emotions, put on a pained expression, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

Lin Ruo, who was sitting on the side watching the show, ate another grape and took in Yang Songming's series of changes in expression. She sneered inwardly, "A dog that bites doesn't bark. You should just kill this kind of person to avoid future troubles."

Seeing that Yang Songming had agreed, Ye Lin's lips curled into a sarcastic smile, and he raised his hand to Yang Songming in a gesture of invitation, "In that case, please come this way, Commander Yang."

Yang Songming glanced at Ye Lin, a smile slowly spreading across his lips. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Alright!"

Lin Ruo watched them leave with their men, inwardly lamenting the lack of excitement. She had expected the two groups of superhumans to fight, but this was it? Not even a single superhuman had died.

"I'm never watching them fight again."

After Lin Ruo finished muttering to herself, she activated her mental power, instantly opening her spatial domain, which now had a range of 100 meters. The next moment, she had disappeared from the spot.

He stealthily approached the base of the city wall, then used his spatial domain again to teleport himself directly outside the city wall.

Every time she used this ability, she felt that it was really useful. It was just a pity that the range was too small and the ability was consumed too quickly each time. Otherwise, it really had no drawbacks.

She ran quickly through the darkness, and soon arrived at the base in City B a few kilometers away. Only then did she take out her motorcycle and drive to hunt for Afu and Ashou.

Along the way, Lin Ruo discovered many mutated plants. These mutated plants have now awakened, but they still pretend to be harmless. As long as a person or mutated animal passes by them, they will be ambushed.

Before Lin Ruo could collect her thoughts, the motorcycle beneath her suddenly began to sway violently from side to side. Lin Ruo quickly reduced the throttle and downshifted, finally managing to stop safely on the road.

Lin Ruo probed downwards with her mental energy and discovered that the motorcycle's tires had been punctured after only a few uses. Looking at the scratches, Lin Ruo turned her head and probed downwards with her mental energy, and sure enough, she found a small green blade of grass.

She put the motorcycle into her spatial storage, walked over, and squatted down around the small grass. It was a herbaceous plant called serrated amaranth. Before the apocalypse, its leaves already had serrated thorns, and after the apocalypse, the leaves mutated to be as sharp as knives. The leaves that had just cut her tire were its leaves.

This thing has another characteristic: it reproduces extremely quickly! Once it appears, the whole area will be covered in them within a week.

There's only one here now, probably because it's just awakened. Lin Ruo stroked her chin and thought for a moment. This thing is pretty good. If we take it back and plant it outside the firebreak of the fortress, it will soon grow into a large patch.

Neither humans nor mutated animals can get close to her fortress, since she can teleport out without getting cut.

She reached out her hand, a blue light flashing in her eyes, and a layer of solid ice immediately appeared on her hand. She dug out the serrated amaranth along with the soil, placed it in a pot, and stored it in her spatial storage. She would take it out and plant it when she got back.

Since her car broke down here, she decided to hunt for Afu and Ashou right there. She took out a piece of meat from a level 2 mutated elephant from her spatial storage. Fearing it wouldn't be enough to attract mutated animals, she also splashed a lot of mutated animal blood next to her. The strong smell of blood spread even faster in the hot weather.

While she waited, she channeled her mental energy into the space to change the motorcycle tire.

Soon, prey came knocking. A huge lizard slowly crawled over. Some of the lizard's tight scales had fallen off, revealing the tender flesh underneath, probably from being sunburned.
