Chapter 548 That Melon

Those wary and defensive glances that came over.

Bai Mianmian didn't pay much attention; the struggle for resources between different factions was not uncommon in interstellar space.

She had seen it many times on star number 1888, and on star D7, she saw it three or four times every time it appeared.

Therefore, it is perfectly normal for those people to be wary and defensive towards them.

Bypassing the mutated plants that were clearly aggressive, Bai Mianmian and her companions quickly distanced themselves from the other forces.

As Luo Ziyu watched Bai Mianmian lead the way into the depths of the forest, he couldn't help but glance again at the shrunken terminal screen in mid-air.

The map shown above is a map of the places that each team has explored.

Seeing that the area ahead was still marked as low-risk, Luo Ziyu remained silent, but he did not relax his vigilance regarding his surroundings.

Because along the way, they needed to deal with any sudden dangers first.

For example, those flying insects that occasionally bump into you.

For example, snakes or insects might suddenly fall from a tree you're passing by.

Another example is the roots and vines of trees that suddenly extend from underground or adjacent plants.

If they can't even handle these minor dangers in time, then there's no point in them coming along.

As Bai Mianmian flew forward, she suddenly seemed to notice something and abruptly turned to fly to the left.

Luo Ziyu and the others reacted extremely quickly and turned the corner instantly.

"This way," Bai Mianmian's voice finally rang out in the air.

Not far from Bai Mianmian, Luo Ziyu glanced at the map on the terminal screen again.

After confirming once again that the area ahead was low-risk, his heart, which had been tense due to the sudden turn, relaxed.

Passing through the lush vegetation ahead, Bai Mianmian's view suddenly opened up.

The towering trees that used to block out the sun were gone, but the ground was covered with creeping plants that stretched for at least several kilometers.

And beneath those climbing vines, there seemed to be oval-shaped objects, each about the height of a person's calf, covering them.

"Sister-in-law, please be careful, we are about to enter the attack range of those climbing plants."

Seeing that Bai Mianmian was about to continue approaching the climbing plants, Luo Ziyu reminded her, and at the same time, he raised his hand and made a forward gesture in the air.

Upon seeing his gesture, Yu Xu and Guo Ming suddenly accelerated and overtook Bai Mianmian, entering the attack range of the climbing plants ahead of her.

"Whoosh~" In an instant, several vines lashed out at the two of them.

Yu Xu's expression hardened, and with a flick of his wrist, several arcs of electricity shot out from his hand, crackling and popping!

In a flash of lightning, every vine that was pulled out was struck by the electric arc and turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Guo Ming activated all his fire-based abilities, but the target just vanished. "..."

"Bang bang bang~" Just then, several muffled explosions suddenly rang out from under the vines on the ground.

Bai Mianmian stopped and looked at the red liquid that had splashed into the air, her eyes brightening.

"Take a step back first." Seeing that she was no longer moving forward, Luo Ziyu immediately called Yu Xu and the other person back.

Should we continue moving forward?

Or should we take a different approach?

He needs to wait for Bai Mianmian's decision.

Upon hearing the order, Yu Xu and his companion retreated without hesitation, narrowly avoiding the vines' second attack. Once they were out of the vines' range, they stopped a short distance in front of Bai Mianmian.

As soon as he stopped, Guo Ming couldn't help but glare at Yu Xu with dissatisfaction.

They didn't even leave him a single vine! How infuriating!
“That melon…” Bai Mianmian suddenly pointed ahead, her tone tinged with excitement.

Having gone in and out of the forest with her many times, Luo Ziyu and the others immediately knew from her tone that she had discovered something delicious.

Instantly, their eyes followed Bai Mianmian's finger.

There, a dark green object with stripes of varying sizes emerged from beneath the dense vines.

"It looks like a watermelon." Bai Mianmian stared intently at the thing that resembled a watermelon.

"Okay, sister-in-law, please wait a moment." Upon hearing this, Luo Ziyu immediately understood that the dark green oval-shaped thing was most likely edible.

He turned around and assigned Yu Xu and the others a task: to bring back one of those things that looked like watermelons.

The reason they brought one back was because they needed to test whether that watermelon-like thing was actually edible.
At the same time, Luo Ziyu looked down and flipped through the exploration reports of the teams that had come to investigate this area before.

The document does indeed mention something that looks like a watermelon, and its assessment is that it will not attack people unless provoked, but it will explode when subjected to external force, with a danger level of 5%.

And why didn't they test whether the food was edible?

Because no one thought that the blood-red thing was edible, they didn't even do any testing.

Luo Ziyu: "..."

Although he wouldn't have thought about whether it was edible after seeing the red thing if his sister-in-law hadn't spoken in that tone as if it were something to eat.
However, this does not prevent him from having the urge to hit someone.

While Luo Ziyu was reviewing the report, the group tasked with retrieving watermelons completed the task at lightning speed.

Given that Yu Xu had just destroyed several watermelons at the same time while destroying the watermelon vines, he was not assigned to the mission this time.

Seeing Guo Ming carrying a large watermelon back, Bai Mianmian looked at it more and more and felt that it was a watermelon that could be eaten, but she was in no hurry to say anything.

It's not too late to draw conclusions after they've done the testing.

As for testing whether it is safe to eat?

Without Bai Mianmian having to lift a finger, Yu Xu and his team were already familiar with the process and were using the terminal to perform the tests.

Aside from the excessively high contamination levels, which made the watermelon inedible, there were no other inedible substances in it.

Upon seeing the test results, Luo Ziyu immediately laughed.

While Yu Xu and his companions were happy, they couldn't help but complain about the people who came to explore this area.

If they hadn't been so careless in their work, they would have been eating the watermelon long ago.

After venting their frustrations, Yu Xu and the others called the person out of the group chat and gave them a piece of their mind.

So, everyone who had time to check the group chat knew that they had found an edible watermelon.

Those who had previously decided to follow Bai Mianmian and her group at a moderate distance immediately decided to move closer upon seeing this information.

Delicious food, here they come!
Seeing that the watermelon had no other problems with the test, Bai Mianmian immediately raised her hand and let the mushrooms grow on the watermelon.

Upon seeing this, Luo Ziyu and his companions immediately became excited, while at the same time they took the opportunity to continue entering the melon field to pick watermelons.

Given that Yu Xu's superpower had previously blown up watermelons, he was assigned the task of harvesting watermelons this time, so he didn't need to deal with the vines that could attack people.

Before the contamination from one watermelon had been completely cleaned up, members of the Second Legion had already arrived.

Then, they all got to harvest the melons.

Aside from dealing with the pollutants in the watermelons, Bai Mianmian had no opportunity to help with harvesting the watermelons or managing the vines.
