Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 159 A-level mutant plants

Zhao Xiaoxiu watched the patrol car loaded with food go away in the sunset, then immediately lowered his head and moved away.

The mutant plant was burned black under her feet, with only two tender green thorny leaves on the top. Once it was freed, it immediately wanted to burrow into the ground.

But there was no way it could escape Zhao Xiaoxiu's clutches. Just as it drilled into the ground, someone precisely dug up the soil covering it and pulled it out.

This unknown mutant plant struggled in fear in Zhao Xiaoxiu's hands. The short thorns on its leaves that seemed harmless suddenly grew longer. Each hair-thin thorn emitted a strange red light under the setting sun.

Seeing that the sharp thorn was about to pierce his hand, Zhao Xiaoxiu neither dodged nor retreated, but just watched curiously to see how much damage it could cause to him.

Sister Monkey was getting anxious watching from the side and wanted to go forward and open the abominable mutated plant, but Zhao Xiaoxiu stopped her with a look.

The cub is very small, cute and pink, with baby fat on her face. She usually smiles with a mouthful of white teeth, which makes people want to feel particularly sorry for her.

But at this moment, the little face became serious and stern. When she looked up, Sister Monkey suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression.

In an instant, Sister Monkey felt as if the person she was facing was Zhao Gang, causing her hair to stand on end, and she took a cautious step back.

The monkey shook its head violently and looked at the cub again. She had already lowered her eyes, concentrating on looking at the mutant plant that had pierced its thorns into her mouth.

"Huff~" Sister Monkey patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. The cub was still the same cub, but it looked more and more like Zhao Gang.

Sister Monkey took a step forward, approached cautiously, and observed the thorny mutant in Zhao Xiaoxiu's hand together with her.

The roots and rhizomes are all burnt black, but it is still so vibrant, which shows how strong its vitality is.

The sharp thorns extending from the leaves were translucent and hollow inside, like the needles used for IV drips in a hospital. They pierced into Zhao Xiaoxiu's blood vessels, greedily sucking her blood and preparing to pour poison into it.

Zhao Xiaoxiu looked at the faint red light emanating from its body. It was an A-level mutant, but it looked so inconspicuous.

Less than 2 mg of toxin entered Zhao Xiaoxiu's body in a blink of an eye. Zhao Xiaoxiu felt that he was extremely brave to use his own body for testing.

Soon, she felt a strong dizziness, and then all her nerves suddenly shook violently, and she fell straight to the ground uncontrollably.

Sister Monkey was startled and quickly supported her, roaring "Roar!" and slapping away the mutated plant that was stuck in Zhao Xiaoxiu's mouth with one claw.

I couldn't open it the first time and instead got my hand pricked by the thorns on the leaves.

The spike looked as thin as a hair, but unexpectedly it was very hard and sharp.

Fortunately, the extremely weak Class A mutant plant was no longer able to produce a second drop of toxin.

It arrogantly thought that it had successfully poisoned this hateful human cub. It pulled out its spikes and tried to drill its roots into Zhao Xiaoxiu's skin to occupy her body and serve as nutrients.

At this critical moment, Zhao Xiaoxiu, who was frozen in Sister Monkey's arms, suddenly sat up, opened his mouth, and vomited violently.

The tomato and bird egg soup I had in the morning, mixed with the thick nutrient solution that had not yet been absorbed, wrapped in a mass of white, residue-like toxic tissue, all sprayed out.

"Snap!" With a slap, the mutant plant that was about to use the human baby as nutrients to take root was suddenly hit by the "Palm of God", and its two leaves covered with thorns instantly deflated.

Under extreme fear, it actually released an emotion of "shock", as if asking: Why are you not poisoned?

Zhao Xiaoxiu snorted and sneered twice, then stood up from Sister Monkey's arms. Knowing that Sister Monkey was frightened, he smiled at her to comfort her, then pinched the mutant on the back of his hand with two fingers and said proudly:

"Your poison can't kill me!"

I don't know if it has eyes or not, anyway Zhao Xiaoxiu lifted the two flattened leaves on its head and looked at the ground, the toxins had been completely expelled by her body. But the sudden paralysis and stiffness of the whole body still made Zhao Xiaoxiu a little scared.

She loosened her fingers and the mutant plants immediately ran away. For the first time, she felt that human cubs were scary.

However, as soon as it got into the ground, Zhao Xiaoxiu shouted in an imperative voice: "Come back!"

The mutated plant suddenly froze, and the two leaves on its head turned towards Zhao Xiaoxiu, and its body approached her uncontrollably.

The magical thing is that its burned rhizomes actually grew new roots at some point.

Sister Monkey watched helplessly as this rebellious and arrogant little grass was ordered around by the cub. It looked like it wanted to resist, but its body was totally out of control. She slapped her head and suddenly realized something.

It actually dared to drink the blood of the cub, this A-level mutant plant is doomed!

And judging by how “obedient” he was, he must have drunk a lot of blood just now.

Zhao Xiaoxiu squatted down, stretched out his fingers to touch it, and focused all his attention on the tender grass with only two leaves in front of him. His consciousness quickly established a connection with it.

The A-level mutant plants were very different from the C-level mutant plants she had encountered before. The mutant pine and the emerald bead flower were unconditionally attached to her.

But the one in front of her was different. His resistance was very strong and she could hardly control it.

Zhao Xiaoxiu closed her eyes and concentrated on establishing a connection with it, hoping to completely dissolve its will to resist.

This connection with mutant plants and animals is amazing, an intense induction of complete stream of consciousness.

It was as if her brain waves were spreading out invisibly and touching the brain waves of these mutants.

The connection was a bridge of electric waves, and she could easily sense them and establish a connection with them.

But sensing, communicating and controlling are completely different.

She wanted the A-level mutant in front of her to "hear her voice" and obey, which was like using a plastic hammer to break a concrete wall. The process was weak and long.

But Zhao Xiaoxiu refused to give up. She felt that as long as she persisted, she would be able to successfully break down the wall built by the mutants!

She had seen her father control people. He only needed to stare at them. It was as simple as eating and drinking. He didn't need to think to succeed.

Although she couldn't be as good as him, she also wanted to try out the limits of her control using blood as a medium.

The other hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist. Zhao Xiaoxiu used all his strength to do it, even his hair was trembling.

The mutant plant that was touched by her fingertips was like a cat with its fur standing on end, pressing its leaves against her fingertips. The two rhizomes that had just grown out were like legs, completely arched and exerting force outwards.

A tug of war began.

Sister Monkey sensed the powerful repulsive force released from the baby and the grass, and she felt anxious for Zhao Xiaoxiu and a little panicked.

It looked around vigilantly, guarding against other mutants that might break in and take the opportunity to harm the defenseless cubs in front of it.

Fortunately, this tense state did not last long.

Seeing Zhao Gang walking towards her against the light of the setting sun, Sister Monkey's tense nerves suddenly relaxed and she breathed a sigh of relief.
