The Reborn Otaku's Code of Practice for the Apocalypse

"Normal mushrooms?!" Luo Xun couldn't help but raise his voice, his eyes were wide open, and he couldn't believe what he saw.

You know, no matter in his previous life or this life, he has never seen a normal mushroom in the last days!Never seen it on the market!

In the two lifetimes, all the mushrooms he painstakingly planted have mutated without exception. This kind of mutation is almost contagious. It can produce a crop - corrosive, poisonous, mushrooms, mushrooms that look like red mushrooms!

But just when he thought he would never see fresh, normal, and edible mushrooms again in his life, normal mushrooms appeared in his house? !

Seeing Luo Xun's shocked expression staring at the small plastic basket, Song Lingling couldn't help laughing smugly—when she saw this mushroom today, the expression on her face was almost as exaggerated as Luo Xun's. Woolen cloth.

Xu Mei's voice came from the room, and she also walked out with joy in her voice: "There are three more here, not many."

Yan Fei, who locked the door, also entered at this time. Before he entered, he heard Luo Xun's voice. After entering, his eyes naturally fell on those rare common mushrooms. "Is this... can I eat it?"

No wonder Yan Fei was worried, these mushrooms were obviously grown by himself, but where could the mushrooms grow?It must be Mushroom Wood!What kind of things usually grow on those mushroom trees?Except for mutated mushrooms, which are mutated mushrooms, those things are sharp weapons for killing zombies. Now there are ordinary mushrooms in places where such ferocious things can grow, so he can't be blamed for worrying.

"Should...no problem." Luo Xun excitedly picked up a perfectly shaped mushroom. These looked like mushrooms, and what he smelled after taking a deep breath was also the aroma of mushrooms. Luo Xun explained, "The mushroom packs I bought before were made of shiitake mushrooms, Tricholoma velutipes, Flammulina velutipes, and Oyster mushrooms. At that time, I didn't find other types of mushrooms. I didn't expect that after the end of the world, no matter what type of mushrooms I use, they will turn into the same kind of poisonous mushrooms. I think it may be After we have enough mushroom trees in our home, the toxic substances in the air will be reduced, and the environment for the growth of common mushrooms will be given again."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Yan Fei brightly: "Let's find a quail to try and see if there is any problem after eating it, don't we know?" The shiitake mushrooms were almost identical.If the mushroom has some mutations, it should not still maintain this perfect and "normal" shape.

There are not many shiitake mushrooms in the house. Xu Mei and the two of them checked almost all the shiitake mushrooms in the room, and only found these seven.Luo Xun finally chose a small quail out of safety considerations, and fed it a little bit - they really didn't have any experimental equipment, and they didn't want to go to the experts and professors in the base to help with the test, so they had to use this simplest method. method to verify.God knows what the result of asking for help will be?

Maybe the quail was too vigorous, or maybe it ate too few mushrooms?Anyway, this quail was still alive and kicking around in that separate small tank before everyone went to bed at night.

In the end, everyone unanimously decided to thread the "seven black flowers" into a string, hang them on the balcony, and use them later when they need to make soup or cook.

As long as there is a little more hope, everyone will have hope for the future.Seven mushrooms can emerge in the house now, who can guarantee that more mushrooms will not emerge in the future?

So, this night, everyone was cutting cucumbers and making coir-coated cucumbers, while talking about their imagination for the future—mainly what delicious mushrooms and mushrooms can make.

The health of the little quail in Luo Xun's family made everyone understand that there should be no problem with the mushrooms, so everyone regained their enthusiasm for the mushrooms.Xu Mei and Song Lingling used to check the mushroom wood every few days and collect mutated red mushrooms for juice, but now they have to check them almost every day to determine their growth.

Should it be said that hard work pays off?Or that the mushrooms are very powerful and live up to expectations?During the daily inspection, Xu Mei and the others confirmed that they saw small mushrooms that were suspected to be normal mushrooms.It's just that the growth cycle of normal mushrooms is much slower than that of mutated mushrooms. The fastest ones take nearly a month to grow, while the slowest ones take half a year.Luo Xun and the others can only hope that some mutated mushrooms can transform back to normal mushrooms as much as possible.

"Go out this time and get some wood back!" Luo Xun's words made everyone nod their heads one after another. They are pitifully barely able to eat meat now. If there are mushrooms instead, it can also ease their pain of not having meat to eat.

A few days before the end of September, Luo Xun and the others finally got a batch of tomatoes that had just ripened—frozen some of them, and the rest was canned and made into tomato sauce for slow use, and a little bit of it was taken to the military camp for sale. .

With these tomatoes, everyone who just killed all the watermelons at home and temporarily had no fruit to eat was very happy and happily ate a tomato mixed with sugar.And because Luo Xun deliberately planted the tomatoes in batches and in stages, they could harvest some more every once in a while, and use this half-fruit, half-vegetable, high-nutrient, high-vitamin good thing to supplement their nutrition—especially Xiao Xinran, she can usually eat this thing as fruit.

Before going out this time, everyone was more prepared.Xu Mei and Xu Mei are still mainly responsible for the food that everyone needs to eat when they go out these days. For the sake of everyone's nutrition, they also specially made a lot of tomato and egg soup the night before going out and put them in the thermos that everyone carries with them. - The so-called "eggs" must have been substituted with quail.Coupled with homemade pure coriander and pure tomatoes... the taste will definitely make everyone who hasn't eaten this mouthful for a long time not even drink enough for several days.

Early in the morning on the 27th, the otaku team assembled again and got ready to go.This time everyone stood in the corridor on the [-]th floor, Luo Xun still stood in front of the team and checked everyone's equipment one by one, then nodded with satisfaction, and gave everyone a routine speech before starting the mission.

"It's been two months since we left the base last time. Everyone has experienced the siege of zombies and heard about what happened outside the base. I won't say much here." He said. Looking around the crowd, "I'm afraid there will be more advanced zombies outside the base now, and maybe some unexpected zombie animals. Although the supernatural beings in our team have all been promoted to the third level, they haven't seen them for so long. I have fought with zombies in close quarters, and I hope that everyone will be more careful and cautious after leaving the city this time. Even if the harvest is relatively small this time, don’t take the risk of going to dangerous places or going deep into the urban area.”

"Yes!" The members of the otaku team are very life-saving, and no one is willing to put their own safety in danger for some unnecessary factors.There was that zombie rat attack, and now they are very aware of the situation outside the base. If one is not careful, no one will come back alive safely.

The crowd went out early in the morning in high spirits, and arrived at the gate of the base amidst the traffic.Still queuing up to go out and let them pass collectively as before.What's different from the past is that there are no zombies surrounding the gate now. After everyone goes out, they don't have close contact with the zombies surrounding the base until they pass the bridge on the moat and the avenue surrounded by many traps. .

Zombies crashed and flew all the way, moving towards the direction where each other was going. Different convoys separated at this intersection, turned to different directions, and went to do their own different tasks.

"Now there are no simple tasks in the base." Luo Xun glanced at the task list that he had just received - to pay two hundred first-level crystal cores, twenty second-level crystal cores, or three within three days Tertiary nuclei.

"Except for the time limit, the task of playing the crystal core is relatively safe. There are many tasks in the task hall that need to go deep into the city and go to some designated places to find things. It is troublesome." Yan Fei put away the task list and shook the car a little. Window starts to activate abilities.

The metal ability that has been upgraded to level three can manipulate metal completely relying on Yan Fei's mental power, and it can be activated without the assistance of hand gestures at all.Even several other third-level metal abilities in the team can gradually use gestures and mental power to assist metal to perform various changes in the air for a longer period of time.

Now, Yan Fei's speed of extracting certain pure metal elements from metals is also much faster, and he can fuse them together in a certain proportion more quickly.Especially after he deliberately used his ability to detect some utensils - such as pots and pans at home.It can quickly imitate something with the same combination of elements, the same effect, and higher purity.

He made all the pots and pans brought out by the otaku team this time, including the thermos.

Using metal-type abilities to make these kitchen utensils... I don’t know how others in the base will feel if they know about it?Anyway, Luo Xun was very satisfied with such a practical ability, and asked him to remodel the weapons everyone used, making them lighter, longer range, and more lethal.

According to some concepts, a "water gun" similar to the one developed by the military to hold mushroom juice was made.Although the range of this thing is short, its lethality is still considerable when used in group battles after being besieged. Combined with the "blossom mushroom bomb" that can kill from a long distance, it is simply a sharp weapon for killing zombies.

With new weapons, everyone left the base cautiously, and still headed towards the southeast where they would go all the time.

Yan Fei sat in the co-pilot seat and used his mental power to control the metal passing by. In fact, he had walked this road more than once before, and he would roughly collect some metals along the way every time, so it stands to reason that the metal objects along the way There should be very little left.

However, after this ability upgrade, he could clearly feel that he seemed to be able to find metals from more subtle places and attract them.For example, some relatively small pieces of metal wrapped in some stones and cement.Although he could find these metals if he searched carefully, he could hardly collect them along the way as he was collecting by car like now.

This ability seems to have been improved after he upgraded, and the search range is much larger than before.

The group drove to the trap dug before again. Compared with the last time they came here, the ruins looked a little more dilapidated this time, but there was still no change in general.What makes people feel a little headache is that the zombies are much more powerful than before.

Before they reached their destination, they encountered a third-level fire zombie on the way.If Yan Fei hadn't reacted promptly to the sudden huge fireball, and he had collected a lot of metal along the way, their car would have been blown up by the big fireball.

While Yan Fei blocked the zombie's attack, Zhang Su directly activated his ability to blow up the surrounding gravel with the wind and smashed the zombie's head, and successfully helped Xu Mei collect a third-level fire bomb. Department of crystal nucleus.

When they arrived at the destination, some high-level zombies near the car heard the sound and rushed over. A few speed zombies rushed towards the crowd like the wind, and once again relying on Yan Fei's instant reaction, they were successfully shot on the ground. A huge metal plate that stood up suddenly.

Afterwards, the metal plate fell directly outward, killing two speed zombies on the spot, and maiming several unknown zombies or ordinary zombies.

It seems to be the reason for the general increase in levels. This time, the enthusiasm of the zombies for everyone is much more "enthusiasm" than the previous times. He greeted everyone enthusiastically at a fast speed.The attacks came one after another, making everyone tense all the time.

"Remove the protection on the trap!" Luo Xun immediately gave the order. If this goes on, if the zombies keep attacking, they will be distracted by the continuous attacks without waiting until night. They will be killed alive. Damn it!

Xiao Xinran followed Luo Xun's instructions and immediately sanded away the soil and bricks on all the nearby traps. Zhang Su and Xu Mei immediately cooperated with her actions, and the hot sand rolled up in the flame storm exploded in all directions!Yan Fei took the opportunity to immediately remove the metal plates on the nearby traps and erect them!The metal fence that had been hidden under the ruins was finally erected.

Thanks to Zhang Su's burst of abilities and Yan Fei's metal plate, the nearby offensive was finally slowed down, and everyone who had been tense all the time breathed a sigh of relief.

"Stick to the shooting ports everywhere, and let Zhang Su and the others recover their abilities." Luo Xun observed the situation, and led Li Tie and the others to push up. The water guns and mushroom bombs began to show their power—everyone for two months I didn't go out of the base, but I saved a lot of these things, and now it's finally time for them to show their power.

If it weren't for the volume of the surrounding trap pits being too large, he would have been determined to fill the traps with these mushroom juices directly, and give the zombies a corpse pool to let them enjoy the feeling of taking a bath.

After the initial difficulties passed, the otaku team finally mastered the rhythm of the battle again. They resumed the mode of a round of supernatural attacks and a round of weapon attacks, trying to eliminate the most threatening zombies one by one as much as possible, leaving Let those who are not threatening for a while let them fall into the trap, and burn the zombies directly after a while.

The sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping" can be heard everywhere on the metal wall. At this time, Yan Fei is concentrating on strengthening the metal collected along the way to the surrounding iron plates, and gradually increasing their height, preparing for the same as last time. Let’s make a roof out of the ground—the weather doesn’t seem so good today, the sky is overcast, and it seems that an autumn rain may fall at any time.

Luo Xun began to observe the situation of the zombies in different parts of the trap, and calculated when to start pouring mushroom juice and gasoline. When the zombies in the trap reached a certain level, the newly made iron box filled with mushroom juice on the metal wall instantly flipped over. Come, pour into the trap from all directions!

The person who controls these metal boxes is still Yan Fei. This is the method he and Luo Xun discussed before going out. It is much safer than asking everyone to pour mushroom juice and gasoline through different injection ports one by one. Maybe if one is not careful, he will get these things on himself, or he may be burned by bad luck.

Seeing that the mushroom juice had been poured, Luo Xun immediately asked everyone to pour gasoline into the metal boxes that had just been recovered—under Yan Fei's control, these metals would not contain any mushroom juice or other things when they were recovered .

Everyone immediately took out the gasoline they brought out of the car and poured it into those tin boxes. Suddenly, Luo Xun felt that the light nearby was a little dark, as if a large cloud suddenly covered the sun, and subconsciously raised his head—if it was sunny It's normal for this to happen, but it's cloudy now!Is it going to rain soon?

Looking up, Luo Xun almost lost his eyeballs in shock, and he yelled out loudly: "Mutated bird!! Giant mutated bird!!"

A huge bird with wings spread at least twice the size of the temporary building he was in was hovering over everyone! !

"I, I, I..." He Qiankun opened his mouth wide and stammered for a long time, unable to utter a complete sentence.

The others also stared wide-eyed and gasped.

The huge flying bird circled around four to five hundred meters above the crowd, as if refusing to leave for a long time.

Luo Xun's face was pale. This was the first time he saw a living mutant animal with his own eyes.Don't ask him stupid questions about how he figured out the bird was mutated and not zombified.After the end of the world, all zombified animals were corroded and tattered. Even if there were flying ones later, most of them looked like bats with almost no feathers on their bodies.But look at this big bird now - its brown feathers are intact, it can be seen that it is absolutely impossible to be a zombie animal!

"It, it's not going to come down, is it? Why are you flying around us all the time?" Wang Duo's voice trembled, when anyone suddenly saw such a big animal flying above his head as if it would fall down at any moment It's going to be scary, okay?

Luo Xun quickly reacted, and immediately shouted again: "Quick! Pour the gasoline in! Hurry up, fill it up!!"

Although everyone didn't understand what he meant, they all obeyed the order to speed up their movements, and quickly poured all the gasoline into the empty metal boxes one by one.

While Luo Xun was busy working in a hurry, he couldn't stop looking up—sure enough!The big bird is flying lower and lower! !

"What is it going to do!?" Xu Mei's voice was full of panic, and her voice was broken.

"It's going to land. Our protective wall is almost a perfect circle. I'm afraid it may be used as a place for it to build a nest!" Luo Xun's voice was tight and dry. He hoped that he had guessed wrong, but the facts told him , That's what that stupid bird above thinks!

"Nest?! It doesn't look for a tree to build a nest on the ground!!" Song Lingling's voice became hysterical.

Han Li gave a trembling dry laugh: "Maybe it can't find a tree that can make it fall... Who made it grow so fat."

"Such a big one, how can it eat the city so big..." Li Tie also said a joke with a dry smile. Unfortunately, no one still has a sense of humor now, and no one can laugh.

Zhang Su raised his head and looked up with a look of coldness: "Do you want to blast it away with a supernatural power? I compress the air and mix it with Xu Mei's fireball to blast it away?" Although they have been staying in the past two months The base is not without any progress.When they are free, they will also delve into their respective abilities, to see what step they can do after being promoted to the third level?

After compressing the air and compressing the flames, even if there is only a small ball the size of Xiao Xinran's fist, they can easily blow out a huge hole in the metal sandbag that Yan Fei hung in the room for him.If I come back once or twice, I can definitely wear that thing right!

Of course, this is under the condition that Yan Fei did not compress the metal and strengthen its hardness.

"Don't use the ability! If it also has abilities, we probably won't be able to block it if it comes towards us casually." Luo Xun's mind is very clear, he knows that he can't take the lead in attacking now, otherwise he can easily sit back The result of killing the mutated bird of several of them is definitely not what they want to see.

"Everyone! Lean against the corner!" Luo Xun ordered immediately after the gasoline was poured into those metal boxes.As for the few cars left in the middle...they can only hope that the bird's weight will not crush those cars too exaggeratedly.

Luo Xun asked everyone to step aside and turned to look at Yan Fei. Yan Fei hugged him tightly, protecting him between himself and the metal wall, his eyes were full of determination—no matter what happens, unless he dies first Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to suffer even the slightest bit of harm before him!
