I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 25: Praise for Stupidity

"Ah~~~ I'm so sleepy~~~"

The next morning, Li Nuo came to the Kram Cigarette Factory yawning, with heavy dark bags under his eyes.

"Li Nuo."

A familiar voice came from behind.

Li Nuo looked back with panda eyes and saw that the person was Amy.

The two hadn't seen each other since they reported for duty until they met on the road today.

Li Nuo goes to work at 8 o'clock and doesn't get off work until after 7 o'clock in the evening.

Amy works a typical nine-to-five job.

The difficulty of a head-on encounter between the two is no less than that of a space station docking.

Li Nuo patted his face, cheered himself up and asked:
"Why are you here so early today?"

"I grew some mushrooms in the lab last night and planned to come early today to take care of them."

Amy looked Li Nuo up and down:

"You seem to have grown taller and stronger. Is the food in the collection department so good?"

Li Nuo looked down and found that he had indeed grown a lot taller in the past few days.

He was about the same height as Amy before, but now he is about three or four centimeters taller than her.

This visible growth rate is brought about by the enhancer.

As expected, it’s something involving the subspace, the effect is amazing.

Li Nuo rolled up his sleeves and patted his biceps:

"This was earned at the cost of our lives. We had to take booster shots every day, and several people died after each shot. I'm really lucky to be alive today."

Amy opened her mouth slightly, too surprised to speak:

"What? You want to inject a booster? My God, isn't that thing still in the stage of live experiments? Are you the experimental subjects?"

what?
Did something go wrong?
Enhancers are still in the experimental stage? !
Li Nuo cursed inwardly, "Old fox Robinson," and shook his head, unable to refute:

"You're right, Amy. We must have been treated as living test subjects. Otherwise, the treatment after becoming a regular employee in the collection department wouldn't be so good."

Amy wanted to say something to comfort her, but she didn't know where to start, so she could only remain silent.

Li Nuo smiled and changed the subject:

"What mushrooms are worth running out to take care of so early in the morning?"

"Have you heard of cocktail fungus? Probably not. It's a new species that appeared in the ruins area."

Li Nuo smiled even more:

"Of course I've heard of it. Is it a mushroom that looks like a goblet? The 'cup' has a dark red paste inside?"

"How do you know?" Amy covered her mouth, feeling very surprised.

Li Nuo shrugged slightly:

"No big deal. I have a few friends who grow mushrooms, and we just happened to be talking about cocktail mushrooms."

"Is that so?" Amy asked doubtfully.

Li Nuo smiled and said nothing.

Cocktail fungi are included in the illustrated guide compiled by Laya, and there are 10 samples in the system's fungal warehouse.

Li Nuo was so absorbed in the stupid mushrooms last night that he had no time to study the bacterial abilities of the cocktail mushrooms in detail.

To be honest, he envied Amy.

There must be many devices in the cigarette factory's laboratory that can enhance the system functions, and I would be like a fish in water there.

It’s so cool that I can use the professional knowledge in my mind to beat others and get experimental equipment for free.

It’s a pity that I have to wait until the training phase in the collection department is over before I can transfer to another department.

Well, let’s just live until that day comes.

Hopefully, the brain freeze will work against the hallucinogenic effects of the ghost fungus.

The two walked and talked as they entered the building and went to their respective departments.

Li Nuo changed his clothes, entered the transport cabin, and arrived at the cave with ease.

Compared to the first day, he was much calmer now.

The increase in physical strength means that robotic arms and gas cylinders are no longer a burden.

After getting used to the mild hallucinations, the whispers in my ears became white noise that would be automatically ignored.

As long as you don't damage the roots when digging, all should be well.

Li Nuo walked towards the ghost mushroom and called up the panel of fungus abilities in his mind.

[Bacteria ability: brain stiffness]

【describe:】

[Use a number of stupid mushrooms to try to put a target into a state of brain freeze. The amount of mushrooms consumed is determined by the target's strength.]

[In the state of brain stiffness, the target's thinking ability is frozen, and a mental barrier to resist hallucinations is obtained, which lasts for 10 seconds. ]

Li Nuo tried the brain freeze technique last night.

After entering the brain freeze state, the brain seems to be frozen and has no response at all.

Can this state really fight against hallucinations?
Li Nuo remained skeptical.

Let's try it first, we'll know if it works. Li Nuo calmed down and activated the brain freeze technique with his mind, using himself as the target.

next second.

The whispers disappeared, and the only sound in my ears was the panting sound from the breathing mask.

Li Nuo stood there like a wooden man, his eyes out of focus.

After 10 seconds, he shuddered slightly, came out of the brain freeze state, and regained the ability to think.

The murmurs caused by mild hallucinations appeared again.

Li Nuo widened his eyes in disbelief and tried again.

All the whispers disappeared, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing lingering in my ears.

Another 10 seconds passed and Li Nuo regained his ability to think.

Only then did the hallucinations come back to haunt him with their whispers.

In a state of brain freeze, whispers and murmurs do not exist at all!
Brain freeze technique can actually fight hallucinations!

Who said that brain freeze technique is useless? This brain freeze technique is simply amazing~
Li Nuo was so excited that he almost cried out.

"Hey, hey, hey, listen carefully, this is a broadcast."

Robnos's voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Li Nuo calmed down quickly.

Rob North said on the radio:

"As your strength grows, be more careful about the force you use when using the brush. Just now, an unlucky guy used too much force and directly inserted the brush into the root system. The hallucination that followed was so shocking that I didn't even have a chance to save him before he was swallowed by the mushrooms."

Rob Norton paused and shouted:
"Cheer up, everyone! Don't be careless! Those who have managed to hold on until now are the future pillars of the Kram family! You don't want to die in a dark place, do you?"

The broadcast ended and there was no sound in the headset.

Li Nuo's inner excitement quickly subsided.

Rob Nos' reminder was timely.

It is easiest to fall when you are at the peak of your life.

I can't get too carried away by my brain freeze technique.

Li Nuo began to dig the root system and opened the fungus warehouse to take a look.

He was too sleepy last night and had no extra energy to grow stupid mushrooms.

There are only 30 kilograms of domesticated stupid mushrooms in the fungus warehouse, and I don’t know if it is enough.

...

Time was spent digging roots and practicing combat.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for dinner.

Security personnel entered the lounge carrying syringes.

The apprentices had heavy expressions on their faces. Some kowtowed, some prayed. Each of them relieved the stress in his own way.

At Robnos's command, the security guard stabbed the apprentice's neck with a syringe.

A heat flow occurs in the body, body temperature soars, and heart rate accelerates.

Layer upon layer of whispers suddenly occupied Li Nuo's mind.

He poked the system interface with his mind to activate the brain freeze technique.

In an instant, all the illusions disappeared!

Instead, there were painful whimpers coming from nearby, extremely heavy breathing, and the dull thud of a head banging against the table.

Everyone around him was in great pain, and only Li Nuo could find a little peace amid the disturbance of hallucinations.

Brain freeze technique, awesome!

"Sha——————"

“Ma——————”

“Ku——————”

The state of brain freeze ended unnoticed, and the insidious hallucination launched a sneak attack.

Li Nuo groaned and quickly activated the brain freeze technique again.

In this way, he used the brain freeze technique again and again, and finally got through the most torturous time of the night.

When the strengthening effect ended, Li Nuo looked around and saw three corpses on the ground and Robnos with a gloomy face.

"Damn it, three people died tonight. Including that idiot from the daytime, the number of casualties today has reached four!"

Robnos slammed the table in anger, his eyes blazing with rage.

The loud noise startled everyone.

The scene was completely silent, and no one dared to bring bad luck to Robnos.

Everyone knows that this guy's kindness is fake, and he is essentially a humanoid beast that eats people without leaving any bones.

At the moment when the air froze, a strange sound came from a corpse.

"Gudong, gudong, gudong..."

With rhythmic sounds, the corpse began to shake.
