Little Mushroom

The judge was put under house arrest in the lighthouse, but this vigorous riot did not end with a mutual compromise between the two parties, on the contrary, it intensified.

People stopped work to demonstrate to the base, and their collective demonstration took place at the gate of the artificial magnetic pole installation.

According to plausible rumors, the decision makers of the base were furious.But in this time of chaos, they no longer have absolute control.In the end, they made a huge concession—temporarily revoking the killing rights of the Tribunal. The members of the Tribunal still conduct routine inspections, but the suspected infected persons found during the inspection are not killed immediately, but sent to the military training camp at the other end of the base. Dispersed captivity observation.Secondly, the inquisitor himself was not equipped with a gun, and he still stayed in the Lighthouse Laboratory to cooperate with the research and was not allowed to go out—it was hard to say whether this was the base's protection or defense against the inquisitor.

The atmosphere in the base has finally eased. After all, they are mainly targeting Lu Feng himself. As the inquisitor of this generation, Colonel Lu's arbitrariness and bloodthirsty amazed everyone. 5000 people, then 500 people fell under his gun - the remaining 500 people were able to be executed by other judges because the judge was not in the courtroom due to force majeure.

After a short period of calm, people began to scold the lighthouse for not producing any progress worth mentioning for many days, and Dr. Gibran, who was in charge of this project, was an old friend of Lu Feng. "The last hope of mankind" is obviously a deceitful lie, a unilateral cover-up. They demand that the lighthouse must produce enough convincing results, otherwise they will hand over Lu Feng.

"They rely on the human group not to lose even one more life, and they can do anything." The doctor poured himself a glass of water: "Their rhetoric is full of loopholes, but this is the only way for them to vent their fear."

As he spoke, he brought the water glass to his lips, but his hands were trembling, and the water splashed out of the glass and landed on the table. The doctor reluctantly took a sip, but a pained expression appeared on his face, and he bowed down , constantly retching.

"I'm also living in great... Great fear. I want to vomit." He tremblingly said: "The cold snap has invaded, and winter is coming. The time for monsters to be the craziest and most in need of nutrition has come."

"We all know that in the eyes of monsters, human beings are just a piece of fat that is dripping with oil. Even in the heyday of the base, monsters kept trying to attack. Guess..." The doctor smiled and said in a low voice: "When will they come?" It is found that the human base is already vulnerable to the point where it is now? When will they gather to attack the human base?... Just like how they attacked the dungeon base in groups before."

Lu Feng said, "Calm down first."

"Do you think that everyone lacks emotion like you? The essence of human beings lies in being able to empathize. Panic spreads exponentially in the crowd. At this time, you can keep calm but it proves how unreasonable you are. A kind...to a terrifying level." The doctor took a few deep breaths, and the harsh language can sometimes relax people's emotions, and he finally looked better: "Please infect me with this nature of yours, When you can't keep working, what are you thinking about?"

Lu Yan looked at him casually: "Human interests are above everything else."

The doctor laughed helplessly.

After laughing, he took a deep breath, seemed to have finally calmed down, and came to the large petri dish full of spores.

"They think that a small white fungus can save all mankind. This is the most ridiculous sentence I have ever heard. In fact, the composition of that fungus is no different from what we use to cook mushroom soup." Dr. Repeating the words of outsiders in a serious manner, he is like a serious teacher criticizing a student who has failed grades: "Did you hear that? If this continues, they will boil you into a bowl of mushroom soup sooner or later. You must take the initiative to show yourself of the difference.”

The snow-white mycelia trembled in the nutrient solution, and the spores slowly floated in the direction of Lu Feng. They were tightly attached to the inner wall of the glass, as if they could get closer to Lu Feng.

Lu Feng whispered, "Don't scare it."

"It understands, I bet it understands. These days we fed it countless kinds of monster extracts, and it ate them all. An Zhe is a polymorphic little monster, and his spores must be too. "The doctor said: "If it doesn't have its own consciousness and intelligence, it will definitely not break out of prison and sleep with you every night."

"So what's your progress?" Lu Feng frowned slightly.

"It has eaten the genes of so many monsters, but it is still the spore. It is absolutely stable. Those gene extracts are by no means gone. I guess it can subjectively control the transformation of the form, like An Zhe can become a human The same." The doctor said: "If humans also have this nature, we will not be afraid of distortion."

"You want to use it to infect humans." Lu Feng said, "Aren't you afraid that all the infected people will be taken over by the mushroom's consciousness?"

"It's not yet time to think about this issue," the doctor pressed his forehead against the glass: "...The point is that this damn little thing won't infect others at all. It disappoints me just like An Zhe."

When he said this, the spores had already actively floated up to the surface of the nutrient solution, climbed up slowly, and then flowed out from the gap between the lid and the main body of the petri dish, fell freely, and were caught by Lu Feng in his hand Li - it lay lazily on Lu Feng's hand, like a carefree... little guy.

Various behaviors show that it is indeed a creature with autonomous consciousness.

"It can move and think, but it doesn't even have a nervous system." The doctor said, "Do you know what this means? I am a biologist. The distortion phenomenon has collapsed the cognitive system of physicists. This spore The existence of it destroyed my cognitive system."

The judge had no interest nor need to pay attention to how a biologist's cognition was destroyed. Holding the soft mass of mycelium in his hand, Lu Yan said, "How did An Zhe disappoint you?"

"He doesn't have any contagiousness worth mentioning." The doctor cheered up and sighed: "The relationship you have slept with - you are still a human being, there is no sign of infection, and your will has not been affected. Even if he is influenced to become kind, he is as infective as his spores."

Lu Yan looked at him indifferently, as if he was thinking about something. When Dr. Ji thought he was going to say something valuable, the colonel said, "I never slept with him."

The doctor looked straight at him: "Then you let me down even more than An Zhe."
