Ch. 211 - Strange Plant
New Novel🪶
Cracking sounds rang out one after another.
Yang Yi hurled giant sea-salt grenades to wipe out the glowing flowers, and the light around him dimmed at once.
But his vision was unaffected. He already possessed night vision, or rather darksight, and his golden vertical pupils gleamed coldly in the gloom.
Suddenly, one of the vine-wrapped corpses, its flesh pierced through, began to stir.
Yang Yi saw it clearly and immediately tossed a giant sea-salt grenade at it, preventing it from reviving.
Yet around him lay six or seven more corpses, and many of them did “wake”, standing up in grotesque, unnatural poses. Their skin was torn open by parasitic plants within, and none of them had heads.
For these corpses, there was no difference between hands and feet. Some walked upside down, others were supported by vines bursting from ruptures in their torsos.
In essence, they were nothing but plants hiding inside corpses, the bodies serving merely as nutrients.
Suppressing the urge to set them ablaze, Yang Yi swung the greatsword, tearing apart the “plant-men” as they tried to close in, attacking with vines that lashed out from within their hosts.
Then he lobbed sea-salt grenades, finishing off the abominable plants completely.
Only once the area was secure did Yang Yi take stock of his surroundings.
This had to be one of the floors of the Farmer. He had fallen in through a breach in the ceiling above.
Looking up, he found the hole in the roof, beyond which the writhing vines were already sealing shut.
That meant this was the third floor, and he had crashed through the fourth floor’s deck to get here.
“Troublesome,” Yang Yi muttered to himself.
The Breeding Chamber he sought was on the fourth floor, but that entire level was tightly wrapped in vines.
Pinpointing the chamber’s exact location amid that writhing mass was almost impossible.
The most viable plan, then, was to reach the space beneath it, dig a hole upwards, find the Fruit of Bounty, and secure it.
Resolute, Yang Yi pulled up the Farmer’s interface, displaying the ship’s schematics and allowing him to view each floor in detail.
The vessel had four levels, each containing farmlands suited to different crops.
The third floor was Black Soil Farmland.
