I'm Not Shouldering This Blame

"Click." The manhole cover was lifted slightly, revealing a gap.

This is the abandoned world, just at night, the dim street lights shine on the road.

Monkeys squeaked from the top of the building, and a figure was running wildly, with gibbons flashing behind him from time to time.

These monkeys are jumping flexibly on the building, stretching out their long arms, trying to take people away directly.The fleeing man was panting, and if he didn't pay attention, his swinging arm was caught by a gibbon, and he was dragged out of balance and fell backwards.

Seeing the prey in hand, the gibbon shouted excitedly.

At this time, their companions squatting on a high place suddenly let out a warning cry.

The Corpse Crow is here again?The monkey looked up angrily, looking for the bastard who had been robbing them of food recently.

"Bang!" The manhole cover flew out of the sky, hitting the two monkeys dizzy and falling off the shop signboard.

A huge mushroom rose up, with a handle as high as a person. After flying over the top of the inspection well, the hyphae scattered, like a big net, covering several gibbons.

The monkeys left their companions and turned and ran.

Mushrooms are scrambling to emerge from drains and manhole covers, chasing and intercepting their prey.

Some monkeys quickly climbed to the tall buildings, and others broke through the glass and fled into the house in a panic. The latter were unlucky, the exit was blocked, and the mushroom judged the position below, and sprayed mycelium from the shower head and the sink.

The mycelium grows against the wind when it hits the ground, like round and round butter squeezed out of a cake piping bag, opening the unique umbrella cover of fungi, and mushrooms are all over the ground in an instant.

There were endless screams, and a hunt came to an end.

The man who survived the catastrophe sat in the mushroom bushes, his body stiff and motionless.

"Passed the assessment and performed well."

From a flower shop on the side of the road, a young man walked out with a form in his hand. With a ballpoint pen, he ticked off the options of courage and skill. There was a digitally printed color photo on the top of the form. The people in the mushroom bush are exactly the same.

The young man holding the form walked into the mushroom bush, and the hyphae immediately entangled him.He was very calm and did not struggle. After the mycelium found out that it was not food, he left in boredom.

So he walked up to the person who was almost kidnapped by the long-armed monkey, and then stretched out his hand: "Hello, my name is Yang Chao. Welcome to Heiyuan, a survival group that has abandoned the world!"

After going through a life-and-death assessment of "assisting in feeding mushrooms", the person concerned turned pale and tried to ignore the mushrooms around him, and it took him a long time to get up.

"Brother Yang, hello, I'm Zhang Tao."

The name was on the form, and Yang Chao knew it of course. He took a look at the new member and saw the submissive look on his face, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"You were abducted to the mountains. Until a month ago, spiders attacked the gangster's lair. The people with you ran for their lives but were found by spiders and were all eaten. You were the only one lying in the dilapidated house pretending to be unconscious. You waited until the end of the abandoned world before escaping and calling the police, and was finally taken to the Haicheng Military Region by the Red Dragon, a state secret department, to participate in a session of survival training for supernatural beings?"

Zhang Tao looked surprised, and felt that Hei Yuan was so powerful that he even found out what he didn't say.

He has a lot of eyes and thinks a lot.

After being rescued, Zhang Tao originally wanted to stay in Red Dragon's secret base, but he inadvertently found out that one of the fellow sufferers who was imprisoned by the gangsters was Guan Sheng, the elder brother of a B-level supernatural being in Red Dragon.

After the news of Guan Sheng's death was confirmed, the high-level supernatural being was very sad. Zhang Tao lost his mind and hurriedly applied to leave the base.

When the spiders attacked, he pretended to be crazy and pretended to be unconscious, hoping that other people would force him to open the door, so that he could run out first to lure the spiders away so that he could escape for his life.Unexpectedly, the monster was so ferocious that none of the others ran away. For safety reasons, Zhang Tao had to suffer in the house and finally saved his life.

He didn't dare to say such things, and he was afraid that others would know.

If he stayed in Red Dragon, Zhang Tao was worried that he would be exposed sooner or later, so he hurriedly left the secret base of Red Dragon. Because the military had his identity record, Zhang Tao felt very aggrieved. He urgently wanted to get out of this invisible surveillance. At least to survive in the abandoned world.

Heiyuan, Zhang Tao heard it from other supernatural beings.

I found this "science popularization group" on the Internet, and after several days of hesitation, Zhang Tao decided to put all his eggs in one basket and choose the highest authority assessment.

A person cannot survive in the abandoned world. Zhang Tao longs for power. He is not a powerful supernatural being, so he can only wish to have power instead.

He could see that Heiyuan had unlimited potential. Only by becoming a formal member of the organization at the beginning would he have the opportunity to climb to the middle and high levels of the organization in the future.

For a visionary like him, there are not many people who are ready to take a gamble.The vigorous development of Heiyuan is precisely because of the relentless struggle of these people. Although they are a group of people with impure thoughts and seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, Li Fei will not let go of those who can be used.

As for the future, it depends on the performance of people like Zhang Tao.

——As long as you are smart and interesting, it doesn't matter if you are a little out of line, all arrogant and arrogant people will be eliminated.

As a true confidant, when Yang Chao presides over the assessment, there will be an "interview" of trustworthiness. Zhang Tao's performance is a bit unqualified.He concealed his experience, and judging from his experience, Zhang Tao is not the kind of person who has no opinion at all, but he wants to pretend to be that way.

After drawing a red cross in his heart for the new member, Yang Chao put away the form.

"I...can I ask about the characteristics of these devouring mushrooms?" Zhang Tao put on a curious expression.

Many people with supernatural powers know that mushrooms can be used, and they can just dive into the mushroom bushes when they are fleeing for their lives. But when they do this, they are also trembling. The scene of mushrooms eating black hair balls of gibbons is close at hand, and the screams are also in their ears. , which person does not panic when standing in a mushroom?

People from Heiyuan are not!

That kind of determined attitude made Zhang Tao directly suspect that Heiyuan's people had found a way to restrain the mushrooms. Unfortunately, he secretly looked at Yang Chao, but he didn't find any strange items on him, nor did he smell a special smell.

"They have no characteristics. They feed on monsters that have abandoned the world, and sometimes absorb our abilities, so it is not recommended to use abilities in the mushroom group." Yang Chao replied casually.

He parted the mushrooms and led the way.

There was dark red blood everywhere, and half of the gibbon was struggling at his feet.

Even though he hated these monsters to the core, Zhang Tao was still shocked. His contempt for seeing Yang Chao and finding out that the other party was also a low-level ability user disappeared.

"Why are we bothering to feed these mushrooms?"

"There is a very troublesome monster gopher in the abandoned world. It likes to walk through the ground. If there are no mushrooms to grow, it will be a trivial matter if the road is damaged, and tall buildings will collapse."

That's why the state has allowed mushrooms to take over the sewers.

In the eight cities centered on Huaicheng, the gophers have disappeared, and the black fur balls have disappeared. Only the flying corpse crows and the responsive gibbons are still alive.

"But when they eat up the mice and monkeys, what will they eat next?" Zhang Tao asked.

"This is not what we care about." Yang Chao threw out a sentence firmly.

In fact, he was also worried before. The first time he saw mushrooms besieging gibbons, his eyes were bigger than Zhang Tao's. Now!Geng Tian has revealed to him that the mushroom is actually a devour ability, not a creature.You won't die if you don't eat, and the form shrinks or even disappears after the most energy consumption is not replenished.

It just so happens that Red Dragon's latest ultimatum hopes that mushrooms will lose weight.

"Report to the major, all the boxes have been counted!"

Zhang Yaojin looked at the stack of metal boxes on the open space with a stiff expression.

Each of these boxes is only the size of a drawer. Although the lid is closed, there are still thin white silk coming out of the gap.

——No food, no space to expand, mushrooms don't like it very much.

Jian Hua patted the box, and the hyphae retracted slowly.

"... On behalf of the country, I thank you for your assistance!"

Major Zhang's words seemed to be squeezed out between his teeth. There were several large densely populated cities in the north where residential buildings collapsed, but none in the south. Now we have to transfer from south to north.Mushrooms let the danger go, but it doesn't work without it.

Jian Hua didn't have time to go to so many cities by himself, and he didn't want to leave Li Fei's side, leaving the place where the mushrooms were completely entrenched, it wasn't safe enough.

Since the establishment of Heiyuan, the relationship between the two S-level abilities and the red dragon has become more delicate.

The country is wary of them, and there is no point of conflict for the time being. It can only be said that the existence of mushrooms and the black abyss itself are a threat.

In the face of a crisis, the threat can be temporarily ignored, because it has only been three months since the world was abandoned...

"How do you plan to send the mushrooms away?" Jian Hua asked.

There are hundreds of these boxes, to be sent to the North, Southwest, and Central regions.

"Put it in a sealed refrigerated truck, and release it when it reaches the location." Zhang Yaojin also had a headache, these mycelia were controlled by Jian Hua, so they were not invisible, and their traces could be seen.But to avoid seeing "food" running away on the way, and finding only "empty packages" when receiving the mushrooms, Major Zhang also racked his brains.

"The sooner the better, I don't know how long they can maintain their form when they have nothing to eat."

"..." When performing dangerous tasks, I am most afraid of such unexpected situations!

"We will send the things over as soon as possible!" Zhang Yaojin did not forget to ask about "unpacking and using", "What if the mushrooms stay in the box and refuse to come out when they arrive at the destination?"

This time it was Jian Hua's turn to have a toothache, and he was silent for half a minute before giving up on himself and answering: "Put the box next to the sewer, as long as there is food, they run so fast that you can't even catch up!"

"..." He seemed to know something great.

What could be in the sewers?As long as it is a mouse, it will come and go?

Jian Hua couldn't tell if he was suffering, because he wanted to be "safe", and mycelium was controlled by his subconscious mind, and "disruptive factors" were excluded, and rats and cockroaches were somehow included.

This awkward meeting was about to end, Major Zhang suddenly stopped Jian Hua.

"One month before the New Year's Eve sniping incident and the explosion at the entrance of the Huaicheng Cafe, we have already found a small leader of the Holy Gate Organization in China. He is a reporter. Other reporters deliberately photographed Li Fei with a flash after the lights went out."

Jian Hua didn't speak, but his eyes changed: "He escaped from the Red Dragon?"

"No, he's missing." Zhang Yaojin smiled wryly, "This reporter had already planned his escape route. He wanted to escape to the northwest and contact a dangerous organization outside China, and escape from China, but he had an accident on the way before he arrived in Ganzhou. .”

With a casual wave of Zhang Yaojin's hand, he could control the gravel on the ground to draw a simple map of China, and drew a circle within Gansu Province.

"This is here! Including the bus he was riding on, ten vehicles have disappeared here, dozens of vehicles have inexplicably overturned, and the members of the Red Dragon team who went to investigate the situation are also missing. Now this section of the road has been blocked , The scope of the anomaly is still expanding, Colonel Lu hopes to get Heiyuan's assistance, and we can further negotiate the specific matters and remuneration."

Jian Hua thought he couldn't do this kind of negotiation. He thought about it and found that there was no harm, but he didn't agree straight away: "I'll let Li Fei give you an answer."
