Chapter 168: Trust the Terminal, Fear the Wild
As they discussed and poked at the mutant turtle meat in their bowl and muttered if it could really be eaten, they had actually never thought to eat it because they had always had a food supply. They were not short of food.
"It smells... pretty good?" Shen Haoran pinched the soup bowl, slightly surprised.
"Is this the meat of the mutant?" Zhao Ren took a bite, and an incredulous look appeared in his eyes. "...It’s even more tender than the canned meat?"
"Well, it tastes good." Yun Shou put down the spoon and turned to look at Liora. "But is this thing really edible?"
Liora smiled slightly and explained in a calm voice. She was also concerned with this matter when she found out some survivors were exchanging mutant meat.
"The cafeteria terminal of the base has a purification module. Any edible substance will be detoxified, decontaminated, and de-parasitic after passing the system detection, and finally sent to the kitchen." She showed all this information on the terminal to show that she found this knowledge on the terminal.
"As long as it has been processed by this terminal, it can be eaten safely. But if you eat it raw... or roast it in the wild..."
She paused and looked at everyone. "At the mildest, it will cause nausea and vomiting, and at the worst, it will cause chronic neurasthenia. Accumulation of pollutants will also affect the activity of supernatural powers."
"I see..." Mei suddenly realized. "I have seen a resident with chronic diarrhea before. Is this the reason?"
"It is very likely." Liora nodded. "So it is right for us to go out and find ingredients, but remember, don’t eat it directly."
These words were not only remembered by them.
