MTL - Reborn To The Start Of The Apocalypse To Farm-Chapter 172 Harvest
"So, when you entered the city this time, you were sure that the zombies were not as scary as the rumors said?" In the conference room, after listening to the report on going out to collect supplies, a person suddenly asked a question.
"Yes, although there were casualties during the final collection of equipment during this outing operation, and the combat effectiveness of the zombies is much higher than that of the early zombies, they are not as terrifying as the rumors in the base before. At least we did not encounter any I saw zombies who would lay traps, and I didn’t encounter any strategic zombies.” The captain answered truthfully.
"Just say those are rumors!"
"No, the mission in the spring, it was obviously not ordinary zombies attacking our convoy, don't forget those videos..."
"It may also be a matter of probability... For example, the zombies who can lay traps are only a small part of them?"
"Perhaps we can appropriately relax the number of search missions entering the city, and then we can use the feedback from those teams to determine the real situation in the urban area?"
"But after all, the number of people in the base is limited now, and the task of entering the urban area is too dangerous. Even if the zombies are not that dangerous, the number of casualties caused by time is still very considerable."
"But it's an urban area after all! Think about the surrounding situation! Most of the old farmland and wilderness have been taken over by those mutated animals. If we can get the city back, it will definitely be more beneficial to our future development!"
"This matter can't be rushed, we have to observe first..."
Because an official team went to the city to search for supplies and achieved great results, it brought a new round of quarrels and discussions in the official base. Although the mission this time is very difficult and the casualties are relatively serious, it is much better than the possible annihilation of the entire army that may occur in the preset.
This is because they did not encounter the same traps set by zombies as in early spring, let alone those zombies with amazing fighting power.
Perhaps, those zombies are rare and have already left City T? Or maybe, that accident was not an accident, but man-made...
Human imagination is very rich. At this time, some people in the base speculated that the reason why the team that went to the city to do missions in the first half of this year suffered heavy casualties was because there were zombie "spies" in the base? Or maybe someone has a way to disguise themselves as a zombie?
However, this kind of imagination is certainly creative enough, but it is only speculation and delusion after all. There is no evidence to support this argument, so it is just mentioned and thrown aside-just like someone once proposed "zombie". In fact, they were created and controlled by some scientific lunatics (alien invaders) in order to wipe out all human beings except them.”
In any case, the urban area at this time does not seem to be as scary as imagined, so, can they try to find a way to regain the urban area first?
Although the fact that the surrounding bases were completely destroyed after the two bombings at the beginning of the year is worrying, but since it is not clear why the bases over there lost contact, everyone would rather believe that there were problems with those bases in the first place. . Or as long as we don't use weapons of mass destruction, don't completely flatten the urban area at one time, and just wipe out the zombies little by little, we can achieve their goal sooner or later...
"Then, we will cooperate with several other bases near City T to gradually release the tasks in the urban area. After collecting data, wait until the mutated animals enter hibernation and migrate in winter, and then start a tentative clearance of the urban area. Work?" In the end, the participants came to a relatively unified agreement, and nodded after the reconfirmation by the person presiding over the meeting.
"Okay, let's arrange personnel to notify other bases, and gradually release some high-paying urban missions."
———————
Wei Xuan felt that the biggest impact on him after the arrival of the convoy was that as long as he went out with Du Hang, after being kissed by him, the bodyguard zombies wandering nearby would hear "harassing messages"...
This group of bear zombies seemed to have opened the door to a new world, like puppies who had just learned new skills, they would always want to make a fuss when they saw Du Hang kissing themselves.
Before the end of the world, national husbands were popular on the Internet. Now, is he considered a "bereaved civil husband"? But the problem is that he has no money, and secondly, he doesn't have super good looks. The only thing he has is probably that he controls the rations of the zombies in the whole community, right? Does this have such a high sought-after value?
Although Wei Xuan could feel that the reason why this group of guys followed suit, it was actually because they were not intelligent enough, thinking that Du Hang's kiss to him was a kind of reward he gave to Du Hang, so they wanted it too. But when he was attacked by the bubbling emotions of this group of guys, he still had the urge to vomit blood.
Dragging his tired body back to the room, Wei Xuan slumped on the sofa and rested his head on Du Hang's lap by the way. After welcoming Du Hang's routine kiss, Wei Xuan poked him in the chest weakly: "From now on, you are not allowed to kiss me outside, and if they see them making a fuss, you have to yell at them, and I have to follow along." Headache, are you tired?"
Du Hang looked down at Wei Xuan with an expression of "I don't understand."
The "roar" mentioned by Wei Xuan does not refer to the roar of the zombies when they face their prey and enemies, but just like Du Hang went up two days ago, they shouted "my" to those guys with a message same time. That's right, every time Du Hang kissed Wei Xuan in front of those zombies, those guys thought that Wei Xuan was giving Du Hang some kind of reward, and then expressed enviously that they wanted to kiss too. Then Du Hang would angrily tell the group of guys that Wei Xuan belonged to him, and yell at them a few times.
And then those guys will change to Sui Sui Nian, using small, resentful, and envious emotions to continue to express "Although you said it was yours, we still want it"...
"It's all your fault! You have to fight with them afterwards, don't you think it's bothering you?" Seeing Du Hang's still blank face, Wei Xuan couldn't help but increase the strength on his fingers.
Du Hang blinked, bowed his head again, and kissed her.
Wei Xuan lost his temper by this guy, so he could only work hard to regulate himself. In the past few days, he has had the feeling that several elephants stepped on his feet continuously, and the takeaway was trampled on the ground by them. All the bones in his body seemed to be hurting, as if he had been seriously injured. God knows when he will be able to recover. recover.
I don't know if my zombie boyfriend is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, he just avoids the question, he should kiss and hug, Wei Xuan doesn't even know how to tell him if he wants him to stop kissing in front of others, as if he still communicated two days ago He was smooth and his comprehension was off the charts, as if he lost his mind overnight.
Of course, this can also be understood as—maybe Du Hang is a special type of half-zombie who can't lose the chain at critical moments, but is almost the same as ordinary zombies?
Wei Xuan poked Du Hang for a long time, and then he regained some strength to look through the refrigerator to see what to eat at noon today—he went out for a walk in the morning, and replenished snowflakes for those bastards. . When he stood up and was about to walk towards the refrigerator in the living room, he unexpectedly discovered that he seemed to have overlooked something because of his busy schedule these days?
"Huh?! Have they all grown?!" The man ran to the planter in a few steps, and Wei Xuan almost pressed his face to the glass cover.
Among the crops planted at the beginning of this year, he planted some of the mutated Jin Cancan and the original green leafy vegetables. After that, whenever they are fully mature and collected, Weixuan will plant some more, and many of these crops will be planted in flower pots placed on the balconies of other rooms.
In addition to these mutated green leafy vegetables, he also harvested some unpalatable rice or something a while ago. Now, other grains, miscellaneous grains, and vegetables are also ripening one after another!
Looking at those bulging beans and bright red peppers, Wei Xuan was filled with anticipation again. He really hopes that at least one or two of these crops are edible. Although their growth cycle is obviously much longer than before the end of the world. But I can afford to wait, even if I can only harvest one season a year, even if I only use them as a swap!
"Red beans, mung beans, peanuts, peppers, edamame..." Opening the glass door, Wei Xuan took out those crops one by one according to the labels attached to them, placed them on the floor of the room, and began to pick the fruits on them.
The crops harvested this time are mainly various grains, supplemented by some of the most commonly used economical crops. Although the yield of each plant is also less than that of similar crops before the end of the world, so many varieties together are enough for Wei Xuan to toss around for a while.
What pleased him the most was not the food crops that he didn't know what to do with, but the red pepper, which had the most conspicuous color and was the easiest to tell whether it could be used or not.
The pepper seeds that Wei Xuan obtained are the most common Chaotian peppers. The appearance of this crop is not too different from that before the end of the world, so the newly grown small green peppers and the surrounding leaves It's very inconspicuous to mix together, and Wei Xuan didn't pay much attention to them once he got busy.
But at this time, the peppers that have completely turned red are so red that people can't help but raise their mouths when they look at them, expecting them to have the same texture and taste as before the end of the world...
Wei Xuan put together all the harvested beans and the labels with their original crop life, and temporarily put aside those that needed to be dried, such as red beans, mung beans, sorghum, etc., and then walked in with a small red pepper plant Kitchen - He has worked hard from last year to this year, and he has only grown such a vegetable that looks not much different from the pre-apocalyptic crops (potatoes and carrots are not counted because they are known in the previous life). Therefore, the expectations for it at this time are not too high.
If it can be proved that it is really edible and tastes the same as before, it will be one of the biggest gains from the end of the world so far!
