Wasteland Development Diary

#239 - Smoker Mushroom

Sun Chonglai deeply understood the saying about fortune and misfortune being intertwined.

He originally thought that after years of exploration, he could restart the buried alien creatures, but a group of foreign enhancers emerged to snatch them away.

After this group suffered, Sun Chonglai led a team to move into Emerald City, wanting to transform it into a mobile mushroom castle. But he discovered it was completely impossible because the explosive mushrooms were consumed too quickly to sustain it.

Later, Emerald City was taken over by the Wasteland Development Company, and Sun Chonglai also joined this mysterious company.

From then on, the mushroom forest flourished far beyond any previous period.

Not long ago, Sun Chonglai announced the secret modification of the giant mushroom, and the mushroom house immediately became the focus of attention from all parties.

In hurricanes and wars, the mushroom house played a huge role, helping many people survive.

But now, Sun Chonglai has encountered a new problem.

Two black hand mushrooms have undergone strange changes.

A large number of fluff grew on their mushroom caps, their bodies turned white, they grew taller, and their movements became more agile and neat.

These two mushroom people both worked on the breeding platform, and they were the two oldest among the black hand mushrooms, both 14 and a half years old.

They would spit out a white poisonous mist and inhale the Dead Sea haze.

Although this would not poison the black hand mushrooms, it made them very uncomfortable, and they all hid far away.

However, these two did not care. They stood by the deck all day long, puffing out clouds and mist.

"This job is so boring. Every day, I'm with this group of smelly fish, or I'm dealing with shells, which makes me smell weird."

"It really stinks."

"Let's go find some fun."

"What do you say?"

"Dare to jump into the Dead Sea and show those kids around."

"If you dare, I dare."

The first white black hand mushroom jumped off the deck.

The other jumped without saying a word.

The black hand mushrooms on the deck were so frightened that they shouted for help.

Sun Chonglai jumped into the Dead Sea to save them, but found that these two guys were fine. They were skillfully doing backstrokes in the Dead Sea water.

Black hand mushrooms cannot enter the Dead Sea.

If they enter the Dead Sea, they will quickly fall into a coma and be rapidly killed by the erosion of the high concentration of dead light power.

But these albino black hand mushrooms were not afraid at all.

So Sun Chonglai took them to Maria Hospital.

Doctor Da Vinci examined them and said, "They are no longer black hand mushrooms. According to their physiological characteristics, they are already white smoke mushrooms."

"This is a light-absorbing type of fungal life that often appears on some floating islands. They can spray white smoke with toxins. Unlike the toxin of the giant mushroom, they can control whether to use toxic smoke to attack other lives."

"Spewing smoke is a metabolic way of white smoke mushrooms. They like stimulating tastes and smoke, which makes them excited and happy, so the haze in the Dead Sea is also something they like."

"White smoke mushrooms have varied personalities. There are many records of helping and killing people. They are an unstable life group."

Sun Chonglai then understood.

One of the evolutionary directions of black hand mushrooms is white smoke mushrooms.

He also asked, "Doctor, in the past few decades, I have experienced the birth and death of many black hand mushrooms, but why have I never seen white smoke mushrooms appear?"

The mechanical and electrical doctor speculated, "It should be due to the supply of light seeds and changes in the environment."

"Life evolution requires a lot of energy, and light seeds are essential. In the past, black hand mushrooms were mostly in the mushroom forest. Although it was very safe, they also lost the environment that could bring about change."

"White smoke mushrooms also generally appear on the edge of the Dead Sea. They have a high tolerance to dead light and will enter the shallow sea area of the Dead Sea to exercise themselves."

Sun Chonglai thought about it.

That's right.

In the past, the mushroom forest was poor, and there were few light seeds. They were mostly used to help weak or injured black hand mushrooms.

The lifespan of black hand mushrooms is generally 10 to 15 years. Sun Chonglai also tried to use light seeds to extend the life of black hand mushrooms, but it didn't work.

The life cycle will not be changed by light seeds.

The difference now is that black hand mushrooms usually have the opportunity to obtain light seeds as rewards and supplements.

As the person in charge of the mushroom forest, Sun Chonglai had long obtained a starting fund of 300 light seeds from Chairman Zhou Yi.

Later, the company's profitability climbed steadily. After the breeding platform cultivated bone fish couriers, the chairman gave a fixed salary, which was distributed by Sun Chonglai to the black hand mushrooms responsible for the labor there. Each time a courier was cultivated, they could get a reward of 20 light seeds...

After the mushroom house was born, Sun Chonglai applied for a mushroom research and development fund.

Zhou Yi also generously approved 5,000 light seeds and handed them over to Sun Chonglai for free disposal, and promised that the mushroom forest would receive 5% of the patent share after the mushroom house was sold commercially.

Therefore, Sun Chonglai directly gave 20 light seeds to each of the 33 black hand mushrooms working on the front line of the breeding platform, but because the mushroom forest operated independently, the outside world did not know.

Abundant energy nutrition and a suitable environment gave rise to two white smoke mushrooms.

However, the joy brought by evolution did not last long.

Sun Chonglai soon discovered that white smoke mushrooms were much harder to manage than black hand mushrooms.

These two kids, named Bai Yi and Bai Er by him, had their own ideas and opinions, and would also be lazy and lie, which were smarter than the black hand mushrooms.

But it was particularly tiring to discipline them.

But they are not all shortcomings.

White smoke mushrooms are strong, adventurous, can move in the Dead Sea for a short time, and have the ability to spew out poisonous smoke for self-protection.

Sun Chonglai told them not to enter the Dead Sea casually to avoid danger.

As a result, they became even more energetic when they heard it, and often secretly entered the Dead Sea to swim and walk, in order to show their courage and show off to the black hand mushrooms.

One day, Bai Yi and Bai Er took the initiative to find Sun Chonglai.

"Lord, we have an opinion."

"What opinion?"

"The mushroom forest itself is very strong, but it has not received a large amount of light seeds, and the company will also take away our explosive mushrooms. This is not fair!"

The latest novel is first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!

Bai Yi shouted, "Let's be independent! After independence, we will be stronger!"

Sun Chonglai said calmly, "Then how can we get light seeds after we are independent?"

"Explosive mushrooms, we can sell them to the company!"

"What if the company doesn't accept them?"

"How could they not accept them..."

"If the company doesn't accept them, our explosive mushrooms will not be able to be exchanged for light seeds at all."

Sun Chonglai asked again, "In other fields, how can we make a profit?"

Bai Yi said, "Breeding platform, we can continue to work there."

"Then what's the difference from staying in the company?"

"We can grow mushroom houses and sell them to other cities."

"Then what if other cities send light-absorbing species to snatch them?"

"..."

Bai Yi was speechless.

Bone Man told him, "You are thinking, which is a good thing. But you probably haven't thought about many things so clearly."

"This world is not as peaceful as it seems. The recent honor war caused the deaths of thousands of people in Shell City and Steel Refining City. You have been to the local disaster relief with me, and you have seen the situation there with your own eyes."

"The reason why our side is calm is because the company is sheltering us from the wind and rain, and the chairman is deterring us. We have powerful building life protection, and we have earth-breaking light explosions that can be launched across the sea and at high altitudes, so that even Governor Mieting Gong has to bow his head and negotiate."

"Wherever we go, everyone is very friendly to us. It's not because they are all good people, or because they are afraid of us, but because we represent the Wasteland Development Company."

Bai Yi refused to admit defeat and said, "Our mushroom forest also has mushroom houses that are no worse than Emerald Soup. Why is the chairman better to humans than to us? The chairman is biased!"

Sun Chonglai was speechless, "The patent share obtained from the invention is 5%, which is consistent. I understand your dissatisfaction, but status is earned by yourself. At present, we have mushroom houses and explosive mushrooms, but humans also have Emerald Soup,拼命机 and Flame Cup, 2:3, we are slightly inferior."

"Another point is that there are many humans, and there is strength in numbers."

"So we must continue to work hard, increase our influence, and increase our inventions and creations, so that the mushroom forest can one day become the most important part of the company."

Bai Er's opinion was in another direction.

"Lord, don't you still have that thing? I think it's time to take it out, and we can tie it. We know that you planted stone sac mushrooms in Building 5 of Emerald City, and they will be especially huge when catalyzed with light seeds."

"That stone sac mushroom might hatch the legendary Annunciation Angel, right?"

Sun Chonglai touched his jaw.

These two kids are indeed much more sensitive than the black hand mushrooms.

He said, "I need to observe it a little longer. Don't publicize this matter for now, because the stone sac mushroom experiment is not over yet."

Since they knew, Sun Chonglai simply let them participate in this cultivation experiment, and took them to Building 5 every day to observe and record.

Now that stone sac mushroom is getting bigger and bigger, and it will shake from time to time, accompanied by local cracks. This strong sign of life has never been seen before.

Sun Chonglai wanted to move it to the hospital for examination.

But he was dissuaded by the two white smoke mushrooms.

"Lord, please don't do this. We can sense that the guy inside is in a critical growth period, and it is also a mushroom. It's best not to move it."

Then all he could do was ask Doctor Da Vinci for advice and get some medical hatching suggestions.

...

After Sun Chonglai finished speaking, he smiled and said, "Chairman, that's the situation. I asked these two kids to tell you face to face before. You see, behind their backs they are indignant, but now in front of you, they can't even speak clearly."

The two white smoke mushrooms stood behind Sun Chonglai, bowing their heads and saying nothing.

Zhou Yi said with great interest, "Let's go, let's go see that stone sac mushroom."
