In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

"what is this?"

Looking at the long object that Mo Chen took out of the wooden box, Xiao Da felt very confused.

“A great weapon I found while exploring.”

"A big killer?"

It was not until Mo Chen untied the cloth that bound the objects, revealing the Destruction Mushroom Bazooka inside, that Xiao Da's expression immediately became extremely surprised.

"World Tree Mother! This... looks like a plant weapon."

"Plant weapons, what are those? This thing we have looks like... it should be a rocket launcher."

Mo Chen placed the Destruction Mushroom Bazooka in front of Xiao Da, hoping to get an answer.

“So-called plant weapons are modern weapons made from plants and can be used like real weapons.

These weapons are always related to the prototype plants corresponding to the plant spirits. In the Central Museum of New Dawn, there is an exhibit of a plant weapon discovered by the Federation - the Pea Shooter.

The origin of plant weapons is mysterious, and even the most outstanding scientists in the modern world do not know how they are made.

The only thing that can be inferred is that they used bionic technology.”

When he heard the word bionic technology, Mo Chen thought of Crazy Dave's bionic vehicle technology.

"Could plant weapons be related to Dave?"

"Maybe, but there is no evidence. After all, Mr. Dave has never admitted on any occasion that plant weapons have anything to do with him."

Xiaoda fiddled with the Destruction Mushroom Bazooka curiously, her eyes sparkling with a hint of doubt:

"The main body is modified from a hollow tree trunk, and uses the summoned creatures of the Destruction Mushroom Spirit as ammunition. This design is much more complicated than the Peashooter.

Mo Chen, where did you get this thing?"

"Well... we were exploring the museum and this weapon was found in the museum's storeroom."

Xiaoda's fingers gently stroked the surface of the Destruction Mushroom Bazooka, trying to get the answer from the uneven wood texture.

"What is certain is that this plant weapon has existed for a long time."

Mo Chen asked curiously: "A long time? How long?"

"At least... it should be before the Cataclysm, but I can't be 100% sure."

Xiao Da rewrapped the Destruction Mushroom Bazooka with cloth and put it back into the wooden box: "I need to access the Federation's confidential database to find information about plant weapons before I can give a correct answer."

Mo Chen pointed at the wooden box and said, "Then what should we do with this thing?"

"As you just said, this plant weapon can be called a powerful weapon. So carry it with you in case of emergency."

Xiao Da already knows that Mo Chen has mastered the secret realm called "Bejeweled", and also knows that he has become a Gem Knight and is accompanied by a Gem Princess.

When Mo Chen left the secret realm and returned to the abandoned city, he told Xiao Da all these things.

After repeatedly reminding Mo Chen to keep it a secret, Xiao Da finally felt relieved.

After all, without sufficient strength, the fewer people who know that Manor 5905 controls an independent secret realm, the better.

Xiao Da handed a list of personnel to Mo Chen: "These plant spirit civilians have signed a confidentiality agreement and can enter the secret realm to mine gems at any time."

"Okay, I understand."

After scanning the list and confirming that it was correct, Mo Chen planned to wait until dawn to gather these plant spirit civilians.

"Oh, by the way, there's something else I want to show you."

As if remembering something, Mo Chen took out Dave's manuscript found in the ecological park and handed it to Xiao Da.

When he was alone, Mo Chen carefully read Dave's manuscript and found a lot of important information on it.

“What are these…wait…this…”

Taking the manuscript and reading it page by page, Xiaoda's expression gradually became serious.

After a moment, she slowly said, "This is a great discovery that can subvert the entire modern world, right?"

"It can be said that I think, Xiaoda, you also understand the importance of this information."

Mo Chen's words left Xiao Da with lingering fears. If the information in these manuscripts were made public, the entire modern world would be thrown into chaos.

after a while···

"Do you remember everything?"

"Yes, not a single word was missed."

After getting Xiaoda's affirmative answer, Mo Chen took the manuscript back, then circulated his spiritual power and ignited a cluster of spiritual fire at his fingertips.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief after watching the papers burn up in the spirit fire.

This information involves the secrets of the world and the true identity of Crazy Dave. It must be kept confidential and must not be known to a third person.

······

After discussing with Xiao Da for a while about the plan to establish an outpost in the abandoned city and helping to deal with some matters, Mo Chen left the community tree.

Manor No. 5905 was able to reach the advanced first level within two months, and the credit should belong to Mo Chen and all members of the manor.

It won’t work without Mo Chen’s planning.

It won’t work without Xiaoda to take charge of the overall situation.

It won’t work without the plant spirit warriors fighting bravely.

Without the hard work of the plant spirit civilians, it won’t work.

Only by unity from top to bottom can Manor 5905 be developed better.

The neighboring manor No. 5904 is a typical counterexample, and the owners should not learn from it.

As Mo Chen walked towards his residence, he made a summary of the period in his mind.

A first-level advanced manor can recruit twenty-six kinds of plant spirit warriors. After excluding the marigold plant spirit, there are still twenty-five kinds left.

If one needs to be promoted to the final level, all twenty-five spirit warriors must be recruited.

Excluding the plant spirit warriors who have already been recruited and those who can only be recruited after activating the rooftop battlefield module, there are now seven plant spirit warriors left to be recruited.

That is, the charm mushroom, the entangled water grass, the sailor mushroom, the lamp flower, the star fruit, the pumpkin protective cover, and the garlic.

Taking into account the possible fog of war in the backyard battlefield and the need to fight at night and in the swimming pool, Mo Chen plans to recruit entangled water plants, sailor mushrooms, and street lamp flowers first.

After including the three types of spiritual warriors in the conscription list, Mo Chen began to calculate how many military merits he would need to meet the requirements for promotion.

To date, Manor 5905 has defeated a total of eight Imperial captains.

The most numerous ones are flag zombies, a total of four, namely, Folaug, Blood Flag, Tom, and Lina.

There are also ordinary zombie skulls, pole zombie Marlo, iron gate zombie Fadlan, and imp zombie Jerry.

Add to that the rugby zombies hunted in the abandoned city and the nameplates of three elite soldiers (equal to one military merit), for a total of ten military merits.

There are only five left to reach the fifteen required military merits for promotion.

There are now nearly a thousand plant-spirit civilians in the manor, and it will soon be able to gather a population of a thousand.

The only thing Mo Chen, who has temporarily achieved financial freedom, needs to consider is how to collect fifteen military merits.

After much thought, it is still most reliable to go to the abandoned city to hunt low-level zombies.

Instead of passively waiting in the manor for the invasion of imperial troops, it is better to go out and do something big.

Manor No. 5905 currently has a lot of high-end combat power, which is more than enough to deal with low-level zombies.

After finishing his thoughts, Mo Chen realized that he had arrived at the entrance of the mushroom garden without realizing it.
