Chapter 300: Even zombies are quite handsome.
The enormous tree, each of its scarlet roots acting like a straw, sucked in the still-recovering flesh and blood of the monster.
Academician Rong's old face cracked.
He stared intently at the results of his more than a year of painstaking research.
Since the end of the world, he has been researching the main components of monsters. For example, geckos have unique physiological mechanisms and cellular characteristics, and their tails can still regenerate after being severed.
This is exactly what he needs: to be constantly regenerated, immortal and indestructible. He had been lurking in the base for so many years in order to realize his dream, all for this day.
However, there are still drawbacks. The more times it dies, the slower it is to revive. Accidents can easily happen along the way. For example, before it can be revived, it is absorbed by the tree roots and turned into nutrients for the tree's root system. How can it be revived then?
Coincidentally, the mutated plants all feed on the rotting flesh of zombies. Ever since following Meng Xiaoyou and becoming friends with zombies, the little vine has been feeling very wronged, seeing a bunch of crystal core food waving in front of it every day but not being able to eat it. Today, it is determined to have a big feast.
Under the tree roots, two small dogtail grasses, barely noticeable, snuggled together. Under the cover of the roots, they secretly stretched out two tendrils, eating and drinking heartily, savoring the food. They felt aggrieved as they ate, finally able to eat openly and honestly.
To outsiders, the mutated plant is a monster that can devour anything. If it can swallow such a terrifying creature so easily, wouldn't it be devouring humans next?
They all took a step back and hid in the horde of zombies.
Suddenly I realized something was wrong...
Looking up, they met the zombies' empty eyes. The zombies looked bewildered, indicating that they didn't understand why food was being delivered to their door.
Humans: "..."
Once at the top of the food chain, they've fallen to the lowest level of creatures, untouchable by anyone—how frustrating!
Fortunately, the zombies no longer bothered with cannibalism. Under Meng Xiaoyou's persistent brainwashing, humans were seen as the kind of sour, greasy, and unappetizing food that they wouldn't even bother to eat if given to them for free.
So, the zombies stiffly stretched out their claws, patted the human's shoulder, and gave him a push.
"Hoo~" Stop messing around, go play.
The zombies, who consider themselves superior to the foolish humans, wave their hands and indulge the insignificant humans.
Everyone: "?"
Is the feeling of being discriminated against just a misperception?
--
The monster that had been consumed by the tree did not revive. After about ten minutes, only a small puddle of green liquid remained.
Mushroom shifted its target to Academician Rong, its dark eyes suddenly turning red and wet. It shouted two loud kisses, not caring whether the old man could understand it or not, and then rained down on him like a storm. The white stick stretched and contracted, and with a series of kicks, it left the old man's frail body riddled with holes.
His body was inherently inferior to the monster's; he had merely altered his bodily functions. Faced with the enraged mushroom, he was left with no choice but to take the beating.
In this year, the sacrifice to Heaven was performed, and its power was boundless.
Even without him, the mushroom could still thrive. She was both saddened and determined to avenge the zombies.
At this moment, Academician Rong finally panicked.
"No...stop hitting me! I am the hope of all mankind! You can't do this to me..."
He screamed and shouted at the humans who were just watching: "Are you just going to stand by and do nothing? Without me, who will develop a vaccine to protect you from zombies?"
However, his former supporters chose to stand by and watch. Compared to zombies, Academician Rong's existence was more dangerous. At least zombies could be killed, but the monsters created by Academician Rong, with their disgusting appearance and invincible abilities, made humans feel threatened.
In comparison, even zombies look quite handsome.
At least after a zombie advances in rank, it looks like a human!
So all of humanity watched helplessly as Academician Rong was used as a punching bag by a tiny mushroom that appeared out of nowhere.
Meng Xiaoyou did it on purpose, giving Academician Rong time to recover. Once he was back from the dead, she would beat him on the ground again. This was repeated more than ten times. Several hours passed, and Mushroom was still violently smashing people.
Academician Rong begged for mercy again and again, sought help from humanity again and again, and was beaten to death again and again.
He didn't know how much time had passed when the white stem of a mushroom stepped on his forehead: "Pop!"
Apologize to Pei Sinian immediately!
Academician Rong, of course, couldn't understand. He mumbled in a daze, "Spare me... I am humanity... hope."
What more can I hope for?
Not enough beatings?
Purple Mushroom's willow-leaf eyebrows arched to the sky. He pressed her down and continued to beat her, making her revive again and again, and then apologize to Pei Sinian.
Unfortunately, cross-species communication meant that Academician Rong would have to work on it repeatedly.
When the foxtail grass hopped over, it stared at Academician Rong with drooling eyes: "Whoosh?" Not full yet, want some.
Mushroom: "Pop!" She hasn't apologized to Pei Sinian yet!
She stomped on the old man: "Pop!" Old man! Apologize now!
The old man rambled on, "What...what exactly are you?"
Two blades of grass: "..."
The puppy translates: "Quickly apologize to Pei Sinian!"
The old man, on his deathbed, said, "Apologize...."
"I'm...I'm sorry, I shouldn't have..."
Before he could finish speaking, the mushroom smacked him on the forehead, huffing and puffing, "Pop!"
I've eaten.
Two little dogtail grasses immediately took root, and finally got a bite of rotten meat.
After dealing with Academician Rong, Meng Xiaoyou looked around. There was a tiny mushroom with a semi-circular cap, plump and soft, with willow-leaf eyebrows and big grape eyes. Anyone who saw it would have to say it was cute. However, no one could ignore the mushroom's fighting power.
They looked at the color of the mushroom caps and thought to themselves: Sure enough, the more vibrant the color of the mushroom, the more poisonous it is!
Whichever human her dark eyes looked at, that human would hide behind the zombie.
She lowered the umbrella slightly.
"Pretty girl!"
"Little mushrooms!"
"A little meal ticket!"
"Mom~"
Several voices rang out, and Meng Xiaoyou quickly lifted the umbrella. "Pop?" Who called me "little meal ticket"?
She squinted and saw that it was the lame man, with a sausage skin dangling from his mouth, running after the familiar person with clattering knees.
Meng Xiaoyou chose to ignore him, and was subsequently cherished by Tang Shengnan.
The purple bubble membrane surrounding the mushroom burst instantly, and her big eyes turned into poached egg-shaped eyes, her aggrieved expression forming wavy lines: "Pop!" Sister Tang.
Although the weight in her hands was heavy, like a thousand pounds, it didn't stop Tang Shengnan from feeling sorry for her. "Are you hurt anywhere?"
"Pop!" No.
Ji Luolan gently touched her soft cap. "Don't cry, or I'll roll you up and hide you away so no one else can touch you."
The mushroom sniffed.
Her vision was blurry, but when she saw her friends, her heart ached even more. She felt like a child who had been bullied outside, feeling utterly wronged.
The zombie who used to protect her is no longer by her side.
"Where is Pei Sinian?"
The creatures paused, their sharp gazes fixed on the source of the sound. There, a ragged male zombie lay at the feet of a female zombie, clinging to her leg, looking up at her with a sincere expression.
