The thrown dagger pierced into the head that seemed to be growing from the ground, but the head that was hit began to slowly collapse like a ball of mud.
Not only this head, the ground in the entire area turned into a swamp, and everyone's body began to slowly sink.
Xie Xuan was no exception. She gritted her teeth and said, "Will you die if you say less?"
"It wasn't possible originally, but now it's possible." Chongming regained the familiar expression and demeanor that Xie Xuan had. "If you don't hurry up, we'll all be fed to mushrooms."
Xie Xuan had endured it all when she was an employee of Chongming, but now things are different. She retorted sarcastically, "That's all thanks to you."
Chongming's face darkened and he rarely spoke.
Of course, Xie Xuan couldn't just feed the mushrooms like this. The last C-level field couldn't kill her. If she died in this E-level field this time, I wonder how Ding Qiaoyun would laugh at her.
In just a few words, half of Xie Xuan's calf had sunk in.
Everyone in the area was sinking, even Chongming was no exception.
While Xie Xuan was still thinking about how to find the location of the parasite, Chongming suddenly said, "Can you still find your dagger? I suggest you throw it at my feet this time."
"……ah?"
Although Xie Xuan was confused, she still used the system to recall the dagger and aimed it at the position under Chongming's feet.
Chongming frowned, as if trying hard to endure something, "A little lower."
Xie Xuan moved the dagger down a little and threw it out quickly and forcefully.
The sharp dagger pierced directly into the ground like an indomitable warrior, and the ground around Chongming began to twist again.
“Again!”
Without Chongming's explanation, Xie Xuan had already recalled the dagger and threw it out with force.
This time the throw seemed to be more accurate than the last time. The swamp twitched violently twice before calming down, and Xie Xuan and the others stopped sinking further.
Xie Xuan stabbed him again without mercy, and this time the system's broadcast finally rang in Xie Xuan's mind.
[The parasite has been successfully killed. The spore concentration is decreasing. Please collect the bacteria in time.]
The dim space became bright again, and the ground that had just tried to swallow them turned into dry mycelium that wrapped around their legs.
At Chongming's feet lay the dried and cracked corpse of a mushroom man.
Chongming kicked away the arm that was still wrapped around his leg with an indescribable expression.
Xie Xuan first took a picture of Chongming's wonderful expression before picking up the dagger and stabbing the dark yellow fungus in the middle of the corpse.
[The fungus has been successfully contained. Mission completed. 20 points awarded. Current points: -40. Ability gained: Manipulate the ground within a one-meter radius.]
Xie Xuan no longer has any requirements for the rewards given by the system.
The field disappeared, and everyone returned to the stage of the real White Horse Club.
But the previously magnificent hall was now covered with dried mycelium, and the air was filled with the unpleasant smell of corruption.
In such an environment, three people wearing pure white protective suits from the Ecological Bureau's Logistics Department stood out.
The terminal had restored full signal, and the first message Xie Xuan saw was from Ding Qiaoyun.
"You're quite lucky in a sense. I'll just send the logistics department over. Remember to message me when you get out."
The last half of the sentence made Xie Xuan a little flattered.
Xie Xuan: "Solved it, it took a bit of effort."
Ding Qiaoyun replied immediately: "Is Chongming okay?"
Xie Xuan: “……?”
She knew that Ding Qiaoyun would not be so kind as to care about her safety, so Xie Xuan directly sent the precious images that had just been captured in the field to Ding Qiaoyun.
Ding Qiaoyun replied immediately: "I didn't waste the membership card I gave you. Do you have any more?"
Xie Xuan: "...No, I was just dealing with the infection incident. How could I have so much free time to take ugly photos of Chongming?"
Ding Qiaoyun said succinctly: "Not ugly. Don't reply."
Xie Xuan was speechless.
While Xie Xuan and Ding Qiaoyun were chatting, the people from the logistics department had already evacuated the people involved in the incident to the ambulance in an orderly manner.
Generally speaking, only when the spore concentration in the area reaches 60% will it cause a serious infection to people in the area who are not wearing protective clothing.
If the infection is mild, as long as you leave the area and take medicine and rest for a few days, the sequelae of the infection will gradually subside.
People with special abilities are more resistant to infection than ordinary people. At least Xie Xuan doesn't have any symptoms of infection yet.
But the necessary procedures could not be skipped. After the logistics department and Xie Xuan communicated about the task information, they asked Xie Xuan to wait and go back with them to the hospital of the Ecological Bureau for examination and treatment.
Xie Xuan had just been out of the inpatient department of the Ecological Bureau a few hours ago, and now she was going back again, and she actually felt a sense of familiarity.
She did not want to embarrass the people in the logistics department and agreed. Then she suddenly realized that she seemed to have forgotten something.
"By the way, where's Chongming? He's the handsome boy standing next to me just now."
The logistics officer was clearly impressed by Chongming. He turned and pointed in a direction, "Over there."
Xie Xuan turned around and saw Chongming, who was wearing a white shirt with a large wet spot, talking to a man in security uniform.
After thanking her colleagues, Xie Xuan walked towards Chongming.
As he got closer, the conversation between Chongming and Anbao began to become clearer and inexplicably familiar.
After listening to a few words, Xie Xuan was surprised but not surprised to find that she had heard Chongming say these words not long ago while standing in the same messy convenience store.
