Chapter 380 Are you prepared to be killed?
"Team leader, give it a try. I guarantee this durian will taste pretty good. We've upgraded this variety, so the taste is definitely not bad. I'll repay you with every single one!"
"Moreover, this is something we learned from research on mutant plants. If we can overcome the taste problem by applying this method to other mutant plants, we can solve most of the food problem in the future."
After mutation, the taste of the plant changes drastically, making it unsuitable for consumption. For example, this durian, before the improvement, although it was larger than before the apocalypse, basically weighing ten or twenty kilograms, the taste was completely incomparable to that before the apocalypse.
Before the apocalypse, durian was highly polarized. Those who loved it thought it tasted amazing, but the mutated durian was simply disgusting. The skin was thicker than the filling, the smell was incredibly foul, and it tasted nauseatingly overripe.
Even the interior color wasn't golden yellow, but rather closer to a yellowish-brown, like excrement. Coupled with that incredibly foul odor, for a moment you didn't know if you were eating durian or excrement.
However, after this period of research, they have made efforts to improve and cultivate the species.
The durians grown from these three improved generations, while not as delicious as the pre-apocalyptic varieties, are no longer as unpalatable. They taste quite good now, just not as amazing as the pre-apocalyptic varieties.
However, there are also advantages. This third-generation improved variety retains the characteristic of large size of the heterologous plant, and after improvement, it can now be called paper-skin durian, with thin skin, large filling, and small seeds.
The only downside is that they've tried, and this kernel cannot be used for second-generation cultivation; the kernels cultivated from it cannot produce fruit and can only be used as ornamental plants.
After confirming that these improved and mutated durians were edible, Zheng Mu had them put on sale at the base store, while also strengthening research on the improvement of other fruits.
"Thank you for your hard work during this period. I will apply for this month's R&D bonus for you. If the application is approved, it will be deposited directly into your ability ring accounts, just like before."
Those below smiled upon hearing this, but their laughter quickly faded as the base suddenly shook violently, and alarms sounded.
Everyone in the base, regardless of what they were doing before, stopped what they were doing and their faces turned solemn.
"Enemy attack! All personnel prepare for battle!"
The little deer, who had been wandering around the snack street, was cursing inwardly. It was obvious that it was the annoying insectoids. They couldn't even live a peaceful life like this. They were so annoying.
The Zerg attack came suddenly and fiercely, but Lu Yize and the others had anticipated that they would come sooner or later, and a direct confrontation was inevitable.
Hilde, Cecil, and Noah, along with other insects, stood outside the base, looking down at the base protected by several layers of supernatural abilities. The vibrations of the black crystal had begun to subside. Once they completely dissipated, they would need to sacrifice a large number of supernatural beings to mine it for them.
They negotiated a division plan with Aqui of the Serpent Clan. They had previously used these humans to eliminate the Parasitic Flower Mother Clan, who had come to this planet with them, and then spent some time hunting down and capturing the remaining members of their clan.
In addition, because of the power stone, although I was slightly injured, I gained more power. It was because I was taking a little time to absorb and digest this power that I was delayed.
Since absorbing these supernatural abilities, Hilde and Aquinas have become even more aware of the importance of this black crystal meteorite.
Although it is unknown what attracted it to this planet, now that they have discovered it, it is their property.
They learned from Su Xuan that the humans had seen through their plan. The leaders of the bases that were originally under control were gradually breaking free of control by these people using some unknown methods, and the three major bases were now in chaos.
Su Xuan immediately focused her attention on Lu Yize and the others, who had disrupted all their plans from the very beginning.
From the exposure of the underwater laboratory to the fact that, despite their deliberate indulgence, the number of insects that died after the destruction of Sky City far exceeded their expectations.
Later, when the three bases went out of control, they didn't believe that Lu Yize and his people weren't behind it. What Su Xuan feared even more was that the speed at which these humans' superpowers were growing was too fast.
Moreover, the conflict they tried to instigate is gradually being resolved. These damned humans, alien plants, zombies, alien beasts, and sea monsters are actually able to put aside their differences and join hands to fight against them.
It seems they have completely forgotten the hatred they had for each other at the beginning. Su Xuan is puzzled and doesn't understand where the plan went wrong. Now, seeing the people in this small and dilapidated base actually starting to live with hope for the future.
It's ridiculous that they don't even know fear when they're about to die. This made Su Xuan very unhappy. She was unhappy that her plan was ruined, and she was unhappy to see these people living so peacefully. Why should they live better than the Zerg?
Hilde stretched out her hand, and the originally hot ground was instantly covered by icy frost, which covered the entire base in an instant. The outer protective shield of the base gradually solidified under the extreme cold power.
The supernatural energy suspended above the base solidified layer by layer. The supernatural energy shield, which could not hold for long, gradually began to crack. The people inside the base watched as the barrier that had blocked the high temperature above them shattered into powder right before their eyes.
As the starlight descended, it brought with it extremely high temperatures. The scorching heat instantly clouded their vision, and some ordinary people with poor eyesight who wore glasses experienced a layer of fogging up in their eyes.
Those with superpowers used their abilities to form a barrier, while those without superpowers gathered in one spot, watching the Zerg above the base.
His eyes held resentment and hostility, but not fear.
At worst, they'll all die here today, but even if they die, they'll definitely drag some of the alien race down with them! A one-for-one trade wouldn't be a loss!
We must not let these bastards get away with this!
The moment the power shield was broken, Morse piloted his mech straight at Hilde, while Lu Yi followed behind, using his spatial abilities to coordinate.
With the enhancement of Lu Yize's ability in the spatial domain and the assistance of the mecha, Morse's ability has almost reached the level of a seventh-tier mutated fire-type ability.
But just before he got close, several manipulated experimental subjects blocked Morse's way, and Cecil's eerie laughter came from above. He still remembered how Lu Yize and this person had teamed up to seriously injure him before.
Cecil stared at Morse, his eyes fixed on his body as if he were a perfect test subject. He let out a chilling laugh. "Morse, are you ready to be killed by me?"
Morse scoffed, "Are all you Zerg so arrogant? The last one who said that is long gone."
