Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive Chapter 499: Zombie-Eating Plants
"There are mutated plants growing around the base. Have you guys noticed them?" Chu Miao asked while looking around to see if anyone else had noticed the sa thing she had.
"I think mutated plants are common now. We had to clear all the vegetation in the base for fear of them attacking the people.
But why would you ask about that?" Yu Wane’r asked while fidgeting in her seat.
She wanted to sit next to Chu Miao and share what she had done the previous day when she was training and fighting more than twenty zombies alone. But it seed that Ye Xuan would not give her that opportunity.
"Has any of you noticed anything different with the plants outside the base? There are soldiers patrolling the area. Have they not noticed anything at all?" Chu Miao was confused since it shouldn’t be the first ti those plants had swallowed zombies.
Then why had no one noticed anything before? Or were the plants mutating differently only now?
"What exactly happened? Just tell us so that we can figure out what is happening." Commander Shen couldn’t take the curiosity anymore and practically ordered Chu Miao to spill the beans.
"When I was surveying the surroundings in the West to determine the best height for the watchtower, I noticed sothing moving in the distance.
Looking carefully, I found that there were a few zombies moving towards the base.
They had yet to reach the area where the soldiers were patrolling but were still quite close.
One of the zombies was only about thirty ters away from a soldier.
However, all these zombies didn’t make it to the line guarded by the soldiers." Chu Miao started to explain what she had noticed while in the air.
"What happened?" The always impatient Lei Ying couldn’t take the suspense and was dying to know what Chu Miao had seen.
"They were all eliminated by the mutated plants." She finally dropped the bombshell that shocked everyone in that room.
"When you say they were eliminated, what do you an?" Murong Yi asked the question in everyone’s mind.
"I an the mutated plants seed to co alive and began to grow and move. So turned into vines and wrapped the zombies up like cocoons before pulling them underground.
Once the zombies disappeared underground, the soil moved back into place and the plant shrank again.
Others opened up like nether black holes and swallowed the zombies before shrinking again and going back to normal.
In this way, all the zombies that ca close were all eliminated before the soldiers doing patrol even noticed them.
But what I realized was different with these plants was that they only attacked zombies and behaved like regular plants when the soldiers walked by.
I was hoping we could do an experint by capturing so zombies and dropping them among those plants to see if the sa thing will happen."
As Chu Miao explained, the people in the room had their jaws almost dropping to the ground.
This wasn’t sothing anyone else had witnessed and it was too shocking to believe.
However, they also knew that Chu Miao would not joke about sothing so serious. So her words must be true.
But it was still too hard to believe without witnessing it personally.
"Okay, we will go out to the city and get about a hundred zombies. I believe those are enough to help us understand what is happening with those plants and find out if there is any way to use them in the upcoming battle." Ye Xuan trusted his girlfriend and wasn’t as shocked as the rest because in the immortal realm, many strange things happened.
"Okay then
It’s still early and while so of you supervise the construction of the watchtowers, others can go out and catch zombies to test what is happening with the vegetation outside the base." The president was actually overjoyed to hear what Chu Miao said because if her observation was true then they had an ally in the battle between humans and zombies.
If a part of the zombie army could be eliminated by the plants, then the pressure on the humans would be reduced.
"Okay, everyone start moving. We still have a few hours before the day ends. We don’t need to rest until the watchtowers are done.
We have no idea when those zombies will attack, so it’s best to prepare earlier.
If there is sothing else that needs to be prepared, that should be put on the agenda too." Commander Shen, the other high-ranking leader in the room suggested as well.
The beautiful middle-aged woman was also in the room.
She had co in earlier while they were talking and also offered to help with organizing the materials used for the construction.
"I think we should mount so significant weapons of mass destruction on the walls of the base such as cannons.
If one blast can take out even ten zombies, then that would reduce the pressure of the huge number of zombies every fighter will have to face.
So, let’s see if there is sothing else we can add." Another military leader who had been invited to the eting suggested.
"That’s also a good idea. We have so grenades. I don’t know how useful they will be, but I believe they must still be useful." Chu Miao added rembering the large amount of grenades her grandfather had obtained before the apocalypse began.
"If we get grenades, that will be even better. I have noticed that the zombies now aren’t that easily eliminated by bullets. Even shooting them in the head, unless the bullet pierced through the spot where the crystal core was and pushed it out, just shooting the head was no longer useful.
I wish we had a way to identify where the crystal core was located. This way, every shot would count as taking out a zombie instead of wasting bullets." Gu Fan spoke thoughtfully with a far away look.
In fact, as cultivators, they didn’t have a problem locating the crystal core in the head of the zombie, but normal humans and superpower users were different.
