But the black-haired boy still showed a calm expression, and gave the boy named Branson a caring smile and said,

"It's okay, I'm glad you're okay."

He patted his back and pushed him back into the crowd. Then he turned to the red-bearded man who was walking towards the two of them, "Red-bearded Jack." Huo Li reminded the boy in time in his mind. The black-haired boy then showed a familiar smile to the red-bearded man and said, "Yes! Jack, Mr. Huo and I just came back."

And 'Mr. Huo' behind the boy took over the conversation and helped Xiao Yi to temporarily end this unscripted awkward performance: "Is everyone in the mine okay? Mr. Yi and I can only stay here for a few days this time. How is the current food production? Have you prepared it according to my instructions?"

"Mr. Huo, there are more than 800 kilograms of dried purple algae now. If there are drones for continuous reconnaissance, as long as the time does not exceed one week, there will still be enough food for the 103 people in our mine. But if the purple algae tank does not produce for a long time, we will have to tighten the food supply." Red-bearded Jack replied, Xiao Yi beside him was confused.

"Jack, leave today's food, and then let Benjamin and Brown move all the remaining purple algae in the cellar and give them to Mr. Yi for food conversion. Mr. Yi and I will go to see the cultivation of your purple algae." Huo Li said, and sent the red-bearded Jack away considerately, and walked with the black-haired boy to the middle of the large vats in the sun at the center of the pit.

"Is this their daily food? A kind of purple algae? When the drone is reconnaissance, they have to cover all of these with those gray cloths to prevent them from being discovered?" The black-haired boy asked, this is too tragic, no wonder the human beings on Planet D are almost extinct!

"Yes! After the apocalypse, the D system launched a carpet bombing on the entire planet. Almost all vegetation was destroyed in this catastrophe. Later, the land around the world was controlled by mechanical warriors, and the survivors could not grow crops on the ground. After the food produced before the apocalypse was consumed and rotted, only the survivors near the sea and lake could barely survive by relying on aquatic products.

The D system has established tens of thousands of research bases around the world to accommodate its own bodies. After its power has grown unprecedentedly, it has shifted its campaign against humans from inland areas to the sea and lakes. Only a small number of survivors escaped from this siege, taking with them the algae cultivation methods they had slowly figured out over the years and fleeing to inland valleys, caves, and even underground rivers and mines to survive.

Because the living conditions are extremely harsh, the life span of humans has also been shortened a lot. Basically, it is difficult to survive after the age of 40 when physical fitness begins to decline. There are 1 Only one of the 3 survivors, 51-year-old Hardy, was born before the apocalypse, but he was probably still breastfeeding at that time, so no one in the mine base had ever seen bread, and they had basically only eaten purple algae in their lives. "

The black-haired boy reached out and scooped a handful of sticky purple algae with a strong fishy smell from the plastic tank, put it between his nose and sniffed it, frowned and said, "It doesn't matter, give me 10 hours, and tomorrow they can not only eat bread, but also fruits and roast chicken."

At this time, Red Beard Jack brought eight young people and carried eight baskets of dried purple algae to the side of the large tanks. The black-haired boy walked over and reached out to collect them all into the space, leaving Huo Li to deal with everyone, and he jumped from the pit wall to the surface.

He controlled the black silk to quickly digest the purple algae. Now his black silk had grown to 815kg. The black-haired boy controlled the black silk to extend outward like a spider web with the mine as the center. Then, a bunch of flat green cabbages grew from the black silk. The whole land beside the mine seemed to be covered with a layer of fluffy green carpet. The boy looked at the blooming cabbages, thought for a while, walked quickly to the edge of the pit, stuck his head out and shouted:

"Mr. Huo, come up!"

Huo Li, who was promoting the mission of the Salvation Alliance to the survivors gathered together, heard the words, immediately ended his speech, and controlled the wind power to respond.

The black-haired boy said to Huo Li: "This emerald green is indeed too conspicuous. Use your spiritual sense to help me keep an eye on the situation within 10 kilometers at all times. If any reconnaissance aircraft approach me, change their color immediately."

Huo Li: "Don't worry, Xiaoyi, when I concentrate on sensing, I can immediately detect any movement within 13 kilometers."

The black-haired boy looked at Huo Li who was showing off his spiritual power enthusiastically, and asked in surprise: "You... now you don't have a childhood shadow about modifying other people's memories. Uh, I mean, do you have a mental barrier?"

After hearing this, Huo Li asked a little bewilderedly: "You... don't... You hate my ability, right? Although I can control everyone at any time, including you. But you know that I am not proud of it and I will not do it casually..."

Black-haired boy: "Oh, I see, your heart is still wounded."

Huo Li: "When I was young, I was actually quite complacent about my ability, but later I would deliberately restrain myself from abusing my mental power. Xiaoyi, I just tampered with the memory of those 103 people for 2 days, and it will not cause them mental damage. And with the proof of the mine base in the future, we can integrate faster without modifying the memory of more people. To the survivors in other bases…"

The black-haired boy chuckled, waved his hand in surrender at Huo Li who was explaining the motives of his actions endlessly, and said, "Alright, alright, now no one says your behavior just now is bad. I just want to ask one thing, look how nervous you are, after explaining so much! I actually just want to call you up to string together a few words, what did we do in their memories these two days?"

Huo Li finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the black-haired boy still smiling, and then said, "Two days ago, the people in the mine base received a message from the Alliance missioner who was carrying out a salvation mission on Planet D. : Two high-level missionaries, Mr. Yi and Mr. Huo, are coming soon. The survivors of the mine yesterday warmly welcomed us and introduced the basic situation of the mine to us. The first step of our plan is to use your plant ability to transform food and grow vegetables. "

The black-haired boy asked curiously, "So there is a power in the world that can transform plants into another kind?"

Huo Li said, "No... The Salvation Alliance has a very rare birth-inducing power, but the level is very low."

So the two of them stayed by the vegetable field that day, always alert to the drone's reconnaissance. The black-haired boy directed the cabbage to perform high-speed photosynthesis while controlling the black silk to absorb the coal blocks scattered on the surface and underground. One hour later, when the black-haired boy was about to fall asleep,

"A drone group has appeared!" Huo Li reminded him.

The black-haired boy manipulated the black silk at the bottom of the vast cabbage to surge up quickly, absorbing all the cabbages, and then collectively drilled into the ground. The boy simply transformed himself into black silk, followed the cabbage's footsteps, and hid in the soil. Huo Li had already jumped into the deep pit, reminding the survivors to be alert.

A few minutes later, the drone group circled several times from the sky, and after finding nothing abnormal, it roared and left. The black-haired boy then drilled out of the ground and re-controlled his limbs to grow into cabbages.

Half an hour later, everything happened again.

In the evening, the setting sun finally cast its last rays of afterglow. The boy suppressed his anger and manipulated the black silk to devour the cabbage field that had been inspected nine times today, forming more than 3,400 kilograms of fine silk, which he collected into the space and jumped into the mine to join everyone.

"D system, wait for me, I will control you sooner or later!" The black-haired boy, who had been tortured for a day, walked into the cave in the mine angrily and hurriedly. After passing through a dozen meters of dim tunnels, the boy entered a nearly 300-square-meter hall, which was actually a larger artificial cave with oil lamps, but it was already the most proud large building of the mine base.

At this time, all 103 people in the mine base gathered here waiting for the arrival of Mr. Yi, the "plant mutant". They were very curious about the food other than purple algae that Mr. Huo described to them. When they saw Mr. Yi coming in, the chattering not only did not stop, but reached its peak:

"Joseph, do you believe it? In addition to the purple algae porridge we eat every day, there are other things that can be chewed and swallowed?"

"Maybe it's true? When I was a child, I chewed up a clod of soil and swallowed it. Don't disbelieve it! Catherine, I swear I'm not lying! I'm talking about that special rare brown sticky clod of soil, not the sand and stones all over the ground. I bet you have never seen real clods of soil!"

"Is this new food more delicious than purple algae? I don't believe there is anything in the world that is more delicious than purple algae. Maybe the 'new food' exchanged for purple algae is not delicious at all. Maybe they are black like coal, and smell of tar." A neurotic woman said. It was obvious that the end of the world made her full of pessimism and suspicion about everything.

"Of course there is, Aunt Brian! I caught a small furry creature in the water tank five years ago, and then we roasted it over a fire until it smelled delicious. You have no idea how delicious it was! Jerry, Philip, and I each ate a small piece!"

"That's called a mouse, Benjamin, you idiot! But that small piece of mouse tasted so delicious! I really hope to eat another small piece, even if it kills me immediately!"

The black-haired boy walked into the dim cave meeting hall of the mine base. The crowded crowd made the air in this underground building without ventilation turbid, mixed with a hot and humid moldy smell and the smell of human sweat, but the survivors who have lived underground for many years have become accustomed to this, and they all stared with hope or anxiety waiting.

'Don't bring out the leafy vegetables. Huo Li used his spiritual consciousness to talk to the boy. Although the boy didn't understand, he still had several nutritional recipes that didn't contain green leafy vegetables in his mind. Finally, in front of everyone, he took out a pot of black pepper steak that looked like it had just been fried!

The aroma of roast beef immediately spread in the closed cave. The survivors smelled the appetizing breath and became restless. They looked at the pot of strange food that smelled so good that it was almost fatal. Then the black-haired boy took out a pot of golden roast chicken, a pot of roasted red sliced ​​duck, a pot of fragrant and soft butter bread, a pot of colorful vegetable salad, a pot of fruit basket made of various fruits, and a large pot of seafood soup. Like a cafeteria, arrange the pots of delicious food in a row.

The survivors in the cave were going crazy. They restrained themselves from rushing forward out of awe of the two missionaries of the Salvation Alliance! Then, under the leadership of Red Bearded Jack, everyone finally formed a long queue in a chaotic manner, taking their own small basins and large bowls of purple algae porridge to get food one by one.

The red-bearded Jack who walked first quickly put the colorful and unfamiliar food into the bowl. On the way back, he couldn't wait to pick up a piece of roast duck with the most attractive color and put it into his mouth. After one bite, the crispy duck skin and tender and juicy duck meat exploded in his mouth!

"Mom! What a delicious food! I feel like I've arrived in heaven!" Red Bearded Jack munched on the roast duck while exclaiming loudly in excitement. In the end, he even wiped the wet corners of his eyes with his dirty sleeves.

The survivors at the back who didn't get any food couldn't wait to squeeze forward due to Red Beard's exclamation and the stimulating aroma that had already filled the cave. The people in the front also cooperated and sped up the speed of getting food, because at the end of the world, human solidarity was very strong. Although they were extremely greedy, each survivor only took the portion they deserved. In less than 5 minutes, everyone got their food and ate it till they cried!

"Oh my god! What is this black thing that looks like coal? It's so delicious, it doesn't even taste like black coal!"

"Yes, it's so delicious! And it has a warm taste that I've never tasted before."

"This red meat that looks like the setting sun is also very delicious."

"And this purple one that looks like purple algae is round, it doesn't smell fishy at all, but has a very delicious taste!"

The survivors sighed at the first bite of food they took, but after decades of escape, the civilization of Planet D suffered a devastating blow. The survivors could not even use the most basic words to describe the taste and type of food.

Black-haired boy: "The black one is called beef, it is the meat of a large herbivorous animal with horns on its head. The hot feeling is called spicy..."

Huo Li: "The red one is duck meat, and the purple one is called grapes, it is a kind of fruit, it tastes sweet..."

Huo Li and Xiao Yi patiently explained to them in the D-planet language they had just learned.

"Wow!" Some younger survivors looked at Xiao Yi in admiration, "They know so much!"

"Of course!" Another child said proudly, "Mr. Yi and Mr. Huo are high-level missionaries of the Salvation Alliance!"

When all the survivors ate up those unprecedented pots of food, everyone's admiration for Mr. Yi and Mr. Huo reached its peak! The atmosphere in the mine was unprecedentedly high, and everyone looked at the two people with hope, regarding them as the light of hope that could fight against the machines and save the world!

At this time, Huo Li's expression became serious, and he announced to everyone loudly: "Mr. Yi and I came to Planet D this time because we got an ultimate weapon that can resist the D system and mechanical warriors!"

Everyone gasped in surprise, but no one dared to speak in a low voice. They all looked at Huo Li with an extremely enthusiastic expression, waiting for the next words.

"With this ultimate weapon, we can use it to control the surrounding machines! With this weapon, the situation in World D will finally be reversed!" Huo Li said passionately: "And the name of this ultimate weapon is..."

Everyone held their breath and waited!

"Little cabbage!"

Huo Li said seriously, and took out a green flat cabbage from the air with one hand, and held it high so that every survivor of the mine base could see its appearance!

People who had never seen vegetables and green: "Wow!!!"

The black-haired boy used all his strength to suppress the corners of his mouth that were about to rise: As a qualified "drama queen", I must not laugh!

And this serious and solemn mobilization meeting is still going on!

Huo Li: "So the most important task for each of us is: to protect the cabbage from the clutches of the machine!"

Everyone was so excited that they were shaking, and they all shouted in unison: "Protect the cabbage!"
