Chapter 19 A sudden turn of events
Everyone is the Emperor's coin.

The Lower Nesters are the inferior coin, the first to be consumed by the human empire.

In terms of wealth, knowledge, physique, and education, the Xiachao people are at the lowest level.

The only meaning of their existence is to dedicate their lives to the hive world.

Is the Planetary Defense Force short of people?
Directly and forcibly conscript young and strong men from the lower nest.

The Imperial Ministry of the Interior comes to collect population tax?

Shipload after shipload of Lower Nesters were sent to the Ministry of the Interior's transport ships to fill labor vacancies on other planets.

The Mechanicum's Forge World needs wetware?
The people of the Lower Nest were stuffed into the narrow cabin like animals and fainted in the anesthetic gas. When they woke up, they were already fixed on the assembly line and sang praises to appease the machine spirit.

When there are not enough people in the lower nest, it will be the turn of the middle nest.

This is the true portrayal of the fate of the Xiachao people.

All those who completed the training today are from Xiachao.

They were just lucky enough to study for a few years, but they did not really escape their predetermined fate.

The 33.3% injection mortality rate is certainly terrifying.

But on the other hand, a promotion success rate of 66.6% is quite attractive.

As long as you have better luck and persist a little longer, maybe you can get through it.

"Ah!! I can't stand it anymore!! It's so noisy!!! Stop talking!!! Stop talking!! It's so noisy!!"

Someone was scratching his hair frantically and shouting like a madman.

After Robnos finished speaking, the hall became eerily quiet, but this person inexplicably heard a torrent of talking.

He shouted "It's too noisy", picked up the syringe on the table and stabbed it into his ear.

The security guard was quick to snatch the syringe away in time, but was unable to stop the man from committing self-harm.

He banged his ears against the sharp corner of the table, hit his forehead against the edge of the table, and even jumped high and fell headfirst to the ground.

Security guards repeatedly stopped him from harming himself.

Finally, with sobs, white foam spurted out of his mouth, his eyes rolled back, and he became completely motionless.

The security guard checked his pulse and pupil reaction and shook his head at Robnos.

"Take it away and send it to the recycling department."

Robnos waved his hand and ordered the security personnel to carry away the body.

Recycling department, recycling department again.

When they reported for duty in the morning, those who were fired went to the recycling department.

Now, bodies are also sent to the recycling department.

What on earth is that so-called recycling department recycling? Why does it accept everything regardless of life or death?

Li Nuo looked up at the corpse, feeling uneasy.

The enhancer contains a concentrated essence of ghost fungus, which can cause hallucinations.

The first manifestation of hallucination is hearing whispers. The man just now died because he could not bear the whispers.

Li Nuo also heard the whispers.

What was different from before was that even if he tried to ignore the whispers this time, the whispers would automatically increase their volume, forcing him to hear all kinds of indescribable noises.

“Ah——————”

"Sa——————"

“Mo————”

"Sai————"

Unable to tell whether it was other people shouting, or the whispers turning into sharp whistles, Li Nuo only felt a chaos in his ears, and countless loudspeakers in his mind singing in unison.

He was unable to escape the harassment of the noise and could only hold his head, struggling hard in the tide of noise, desperately trying to protect his soul.

Beads of sweat the size of beans poured down like a curtain of rain, and the bones creaked as if they were bearing a huge weight.

The fat is burning, the muscles are boiling, and the eyes feel as hot as if they were poured into boiling lead.

Li Nuo gritted his teeth and endured it silently.

After an unknown amount of time, the noise subsided a little and he heard a crisp explosion.

"puff!"

The sound came from not far away, and warm water droplets sprinkled on my face.

Li Nuo woke up slightly and turned his head to look at the source of the water droplets.

A man's head exploded and his headless body was being taken away by security.

Looking around again, Li Nuo noticed that there were many empty seats in the hall.

Before we knew it, seven people had been carried away.

The person just now was exactly the seventh one. At this moment, silence fell, and there was no sound in Li Nuo's ears.

The last second, he was fighting against the raging waves in the howling wind.

The next second, he was thrown into the vacuum and embraced the deathly silence.

After the noise disappears, a cool breath starts from the brain, quickly travels around the body, and finally returns to the brain.

Li Nuo felt an unprecedented comfortable experience.

[Congratulations, you have successfully absorbed a portion of the concentrated essence of the ghost fungus. ]

[New system functions have been unlocked, please check in your personal panel. ]

New system features?!
What function?!

Oh shit, could it be a bacterial ability?
Li Nuo's heart beat faster and he quickly opened his personal panel in his mind.

【System Name: Mushroom Farm】

[System host: Li Nuo]

【System functions:】

[Identification, Fungal Warehouse, Fungal Analysis (Upgrade Conditions Not Meet), Fungal Simulation (Upgrade Conditions Not Meet), Fungal Ability (New Skill Points Available).]

The bacteria ability can finally be used!
Li Nuo poked the entry of [Bacteria Ability] with his mind.

The ability interface unfolded, and after a quick glance, Li Nuo was instantly ecstatic!

【Function name: Bacteria ability】

[Number of skill points: 1]

【Function introduction:】

[Select a fungus in the fungus warehouse, consume a certain number of skill points, and gain fungal abilities related to this fungus. ]

[The currently unlockable bacteria abilities are as follows:]

[Milk mushroom, domesticated, fungal ability: hunger relief, unlocking requirement: 1 skill point.]

[Water polo bacteria, domesticated, bacterial ability: water control, unlocking requirement: 1 skill point. ]

[Fluorescent spores, untamed, fungal ability: light magic, unlocking requirement: 100 skill points. ]

【Function Notes:】

[1. The ability of bacteria has nothing to do with the subspace, so you can use it without worry. ]

[2. For untamed fungi, you need to consume a hundred times the skill points to unlock the related fungal abilities.]

[3. To activate the fungal ability, you need to consume the fungi in the fungal warehouse.]

[4. Absorb the concentrated essence of any ancient fungus to gain skill points.]

Wow… Groove…

But I am uneducated and can only say "fuck" to everyone.

Li Nuo was stunned!

He originally thought that the system he obtained had no combat power at all.

I never thought that the system functions that have never been unlocked are so powerful!
The scientific research dog whose combat power was less than 5 suddenly transformed into an extraordinary person with bacterial abilities.

The difference between before and after is so great that it is astonishing!
The emergence of fungal abilities provides strong positive feedback for the study of fungi in the Warhammer world and is undoubtedly a shot in the arm.

In an instant, Li Nuo's heart was burning with heat.

He immediately thought of the mortality rate of the booster injection.

Robnos previously said the mortality rate for the first shot was 33.3%, and the mortality rate for daily injections starting with the second shot was 11.1%.

The mortality rate has dropped significantly, but it cannot be ignored. No one can guarantee that they will be safe.

It now appears that the cause of death is related to hallucinations caused by ghost fungus.

If you want to absorb the concentrated essence of the ghost fungus and gain skill points steadily, you must find a way to overcome the illusion of the ghost fungus.

The essence of illusion is a kind of psionic power.

By finding a fungus that can fight against psychic energy and unlocking its fungal abilities, we may be able to reduce the hallucinations of the ghost fungus and, in turn, lower the lethality of the enhancer.

In this way, you can inject enhancers with confidence and gain skill points continuously.

By the way, the hallucinations you experience when digging roots will also be reduced, so it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Li Nuo nodded secretly and had a clear plan for the recent scientific research direction.

It is unlikely that psychic fungi capable of fighting against psychokinetic forces exist in the eighth district, but they may exist in the ruins area.

When I do the deal with Laiya tomorrow, I'll ask them about it.

 Note: The author is good at stitching. The mushroom farm system and the world view of Warhammer 40k are stitched together very well. Later, the origin of the system will be gradually introduced through the main storyline, revealing the existence behind it. When releasing key plots, the author will release the official settings in this chapter, just like when writing about "ghost mushrooms".
