Little Mushroom

The aurora cast a light green luster on the ground, and this luster reflected on the dark skin of the man, forming a strange dark green, like the skin of a lizard or a toad.

Finally, the man said, "We are not judges, so we cannot confirm that he is [-]% human."

"That's how it is said," Huo Sen folded his arms and dragged his tone, "The pollution level of the second plain is only two stars."

The dark-skinned man was silent for a while, and said: "The average mutation time in the Second Plain is four hours, and it will take four hours to pass."

"Okay," Huo Sen said, "After we pack up the spoils, we'll take him with him if he hasn't mutated."

The black-skinned man finally nodded, and then the three of them looked at each other, seeming to agree on their opinions.

"My name is Vance." The tall man in the middle turned to An Zhe and introduced himself.

An Zhe: "Hello."

Huo Sen, who made him feel a little annoying, also said: "Huo Sen."

The remaining person called "Niger" was silent for a while, then spit out a few syllables: "Anthony."

An Zhe also said "Hello" to him, and then said, "Thank you."

"No thanks," Fance said with a smile, "We are all human beings, and we just lost a teammate, so we are short of manpower."

After finishing speaking, he walked up to the head of the monster next to him, and directed the rest of the people: "Go after picking up the corpse, hurry up."

With that said, Fance took out a pair of gloves and a long dagger from his backpack, and threw them to An Zhe: "Go and remove the legs."

An Zhe caught them, obediently responded, walked forward a dozen steps, stopped next to the half of the monster's body, put on his gloves, and began to observe its body.

The body of the arthropod is very large, and the shell itself is smooth, but in some places it grows long, sharp burrs, or raised tumors.He looked down at the monster's legs, there were six in total, thin and long, divided into three sections, covered with dense black and shiny fluff.

On the other side, Vance and Anthony worked on the monster's head, removing the shell from its head, allowing the brain and other fluids to drain out, and scraping the inside clean.Huo Sen stood guard on the periphery.

So An Zhe also pulled out his dagger, and concentrated on planing the monster's joints. It took about 5 minutes. One joint was cut off, and one leg was separated from the monster's chest and abdomen, and fell to the ground. The fracture was white and sticky. The brain-like liquid slowly seeped into the yellow sand.

He heard Huo Sen's teasing voice: "Little baby, don't be disgusted."

An Zhe didn't respond, and continued to dig another joint quietly.

He didn't feel anything about this monster, and even felt that it was much cleaner than the animals living in the "Abyss".

But Huo Sen didn't seem to intend to let him go, footsteps sounded behind him, Huo Sen walked past Ai, put his right hand on An Zhe's shoulder, and slid his fingers around his shoulder: "Honey, how old are you this year?"

An Zhe heard a kind of greed from his tone - the greed of a beast when it comes to food.But in his limited cognition, human beings do not eat their own kind.

So he calmly replied: "19 years old."

Anze is 19 years old this year, he has eaten Anze's genes, so he is probably also 19 years old.

"But you look like you're only 17 years old." Huo Sen said in a hoarse voice with a hoarse laughter stuffed in his chest.

An Zhe frowned, not knowing how to answer.

"Huo Sen." At this moment, Vance's voice came from not far away: "Concentrate on watching."

Huo Sen snorted, squeezed his fingers on his shoulder again, and then walked away.

An Zhe once again realized that each individual in human beings may have different characteristics.For example, Anze is different from the humans who dug his spores, and Vance is different from Huo Sen. He is very grateful to Vance.

He lowered his head and continued to plan the joints. Each leg was divided into three sections. After planing, he stacked them neatly into a stack—the shell of this thing was metallic and as hard as a stone, and it made a crisp sound when stacked together. impact sound.

When he took off all six legs, Vance and Anthony also finished dismantling the head and came to the half of the body.Fance glanced at the neatly stacked legs and feet on the ground, and smiled: "You're quite serious."

Then he said to Huo Sen: "You drive the car over here."

Huo Sen didn't speak, turned and walked out.

An Zhe stood aside, watching Vance and Anthony attack the monster's chest and abdomen.

"Do you need my help?" he asked.

Fance wore gloves and held a black pliers tool as long as a human calf in his hand, and said, "You haven't come out often, have you?"

An Zhe: "...um."

"Then just stay by the side." Fance used pliers to pry open the armor plate at the junction of the monster's chest and abdomen. The edges of the armor plate were irregular, forming a sharp black thorn at the joint with other armor plates, shining gray and cold of light.Fance said: "This thing has many thorns, and it is easy to get pricked if you are inexperienced. The pollution level of the Second Plain is not high, but infection is still possible."

An Zhe obediently took a few steps back, watching them dismantle the corpse, one after another, the black shell was peeled off, and the white internal organs and tissues dripped all over the floor.

Looking at it, there was a dull rumbling sound. An Zhe looked to his right, and saw a black rectangular armored vehicle driving this way, like a huge crustacean monster - he was familiar with this thing, Anze used to The team that was there had five of these armored vehicles.

As the car approached, Huo Sen jumped out of the car, and Vance said without raising his head, "You help him carry his things to the car first."

An Zhe gave a "hmm", picked up the pieces of armor on the ground, carefully tied them up with ropes, and handed them to Huo Sen, who took them over and put them into the storage room of the armored vehicle.

They dismantled the huge monster and made it smaller, and An Zhe picked up more and more pieces of armor.

He was tying a stack of nails with a rope when his movements suddenly stopped.

At this moment, under his hand, there was a piece of black armor with spikes—on the surface of the top of the spikes, there were a few fine droplets of liquid condensed, dark in color, hard to spot unless you looked carefully. .

He looked at the smudges of the internal organs on the ground, and confirmed that all the fluids in the monster's body were white, yellow, or transparent.

What are those dark drops of water?He thought of the blood that flowed from Anze's body before he died.

So An Zhe looked towards Vance and Anthony. Both of them were concentrating on dismantling the corpse, their expressions were calm, and everything was as usual.So An Zhe could only pretend that nothing happened, lowered his head again, and tied things up.

After a long time, the dismantling was finally completed, and the three people seemed convinced that An Zhe would not suddenly turn into some terrible monster.

Fance said: "Get in the car and go back to the base. An Zhe, come too."

An armored vehicle can hold seven or eight people, and there is also a space for people to rest inside. It is simply divided into three compartments, but each compartment is very low and narrow, and humans have to bow their waists to walk in it.

An Zhe was arranged in the outermost space, with the car door on the right hand side. He lay down with his backpack on his head, Anthony drove in front, Vance was next to him, and Huo Sen was the innermost one.

The car door was closed, and the place was plunged into darkness, only a faint light came in from a small window on the side.After a while of shaking, the armored vehicle started slowly and moved forward smoothly, with occasional bumps, but not much.

An Zhe opened his eyes and looked at the darkness in front of him. He felt that he was floating in the black tide, which wrapped him up and flowed to the northern base, but he knew nothing about it.

Slightly bewildered and dazed surrounded him, and he just stayed quietly in the dark.

When the light in the small window gradually became stronger, the surrounding area also became slightly brighter.When the car stopped, An Zhe heard Huo Sen get up, walked a few steps inside, opened the doors of the driver's cab and lounge, and walked in to replace Anthony.Anthony returned to Huo Sen's original position and lay down. His breathing was heavy and his movements were so large that the floor of the lounge shook.Immediately afterwards, Vance asked "what's the matter", and Anthony replied "a little tired".

Another long time passed, and it was Vance's turn to replace Huo Sen.

An Zhe curled up instinctively. He knew that Huo Sen would sleep next to him, and he felt uneasy.

But there was no sound of humans lying down next door for a long time.

An Zhe opened his eyes wide and waited.

The next moment, there was the sound of rustling footsteps, and a person jumped straight on him.

"Baby..." Huo Sen's voice was low and hoarse.He squeezed his legs between An Zhe's legs, and wrapped his arms around his shoulders. An Zhe struggled a few times almost reflexively, but was pressed to the ground with more force, "Vans that thing is not there... I know what you do, I have followed more mercenary teams than he has ever seen."

The few struggles just now took An Zhe's strength, and he panted a few times: "Please don't do this."

"What don't you want?" Huo Sen smiled. In the dim environment, his smile looked hideous.

An Zhe didn't answer, Huo Sen let go of the hand that was holding An Zhe's shoulder, and went to untie his belt.He was able to hold An Zhe firmly with just one hand, which seemed to make him feel great pleasure, his smile became wider and wider, and his tone was rude and mocking: "Baby, what can you do with this strength? No Driving, you can’t use heavy weapons, you can only wait to die when you encounter monsters, why did your teammates take you out? Why are you watching?”

As he said, he grabbed An Zhe's neck, leaned closer, his stubble-covered side cheeks were pressed against An Zhe's neck, and a choking smell of smoke came over: "I see a little whore like you There are too many... But this is the first time that it is so beautiful, which mercenary team did you join?"

An Zhe panted violently, Huo Sen pressed him tightly, his wet tongue rolled over his skin.He turned his head, coughed due to the smell of smoke, and kept groping with his right hand in the dark, finally reaching the dagger that Vance had thrown to him earlier.

At this moment, a huge movement suddenly came from the next door, where Anthony was, as if something had been knocked to the ground.

"Don't worry, nigger." Huo Sen laughed loudly: "It will be you in a while."

But his words didn't seem to have any effect, because there were footsteps coming this way.

Huo Sen cursed something in a low voice, pulled An Zhe up, leaned against the car wall, and tugged at the collar of his shirt.

An Zhe no longer resisted, he clenched the dagger in his hand, and looked quietly at the dark corridor, white hyphae quietly spread on the floor beside him, as if something was brewing.

But in the next second, all his movements stopped.

——A monster with a human torso but three pairs of slender legs stretched out from behind dragged its curled soft wings and slowly walked out of the aisle, with two blood-red compound eyes shining faintly on top of its head.
