In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

Practice has shown that the Doom-shroom rocket launcher is significantly more powerful than the summoned creatures placed by the Doom-shroom.

The Doom Mushroom, propelled by its propulsion system, can cause immense damage when launched like a rocket.

As the smoke and dust obstructing the view gradually dissipated, the high ground where the mechanical insects had been located had long since disappeared, replaced by a huge bomb crater.

After a violent explosion, the mechanical insect's body was a mess of flesh and metal flying everywhere, and its previous distorted appearance was no longer visible.

Destruction Mushroom brand appearance corrector – you should definitely try it!

"Holy crap, he's still alive?"

Seeing that the mechanical insect still had vital signs after being hit by a Destruction Mushroom rocket, Mo Chen was truly dumbfounded.

Having first absorbed the aftershocks of Himiko's fall, and then directly withstood a nuclear explosion from the Destruction Mushroom, its tenacious vitality was beyond Mo Chen's expectations.

Inside the crater, the mechanical insect's tentacles continued to wriggle, attempting to reassemble its shattered body.

After the Doom-shroom explodes, it leaves behind craters that damage the terrain, as well as unique bio-radiation, making it both green and environmentally friendly.

Within the radiation range, both plant spirits and human psychics who cultivate plant spirit power will receive positive benefits.

It can not only heal wounds, but also quickly restore one's physical strength and plant energy.

Conversely, if a zombie spirit or a human psychic who cultivates zombie spirit power enters the radiation range, they will suffer radioactive burns from biological radiation.

Unfortunately, the three scourges of the ruined city are completely immune to all the effects of biological radiation. If they were to be affected by real nuclear radiation, it would cause the swarms of insects and monsters to mutate.

The mechanical insect was severely injured, and the nearby insects and infected people also went out of control.

Under the suppressive fire of the Legion's omnics, Mo Chen and Himiko gained ample time to deal with the omnics.

"Sigh, it's a pity there wasn't a second Doom-shroom to reload the rocket launcher, otherwise I would have definitely given you another one."

Mo Chen retrieved the Destruction Mushroom rocket launcher from his hand into the secret realm space, channeled his plant spirit power into the Knight's Sword, and forcefully slashed down at the mechanical insect's body.

However, the mechanical insect that had not died still had the strength to fight back. Its flesh swelled and contracted, and it once again launched a sonic attack, forcing Mo Chen back.

"Tsk, how come it's so resilient?"

Mo Chen muttered a complaint under his breath, then took out a pinch of gemstone powder and sprinkled it on the knight's sword, preparing to unleash the Radiant Strike to finish off his opponent.

However, the sword strike did not interrupt the mechanical insect's regeneration and self-healing. Instead, it realized that Mo Chen's attack could not kill it, and even happily waved its tentacles.

After ensuring that the remaining insects and infected could not pose a threat, Himiko, who had been circling around, also rushed to Mo Chen's side.

"Homeowner, is this thing still alive?"

"We've tried all the usual methods, but we still can't kill this thing."

Mo Chen shook his head helplessly and put away the revolver that had fired twelve shots in a row: "Is this thing really something from the modern world?"

"The conventional won't work...this isn't the modern world..."

Himiko looked thoughtfully at the half-dead mechanical insect, the scene before her gradually overlapping with a scene from the depths of her memory.

"Homeowner, how about we try some unconventional methods?"

Himiko's eyes lit up as she recalled a red-haired girl wielding a fiery sword.

Mo Chen turned to Himiko in confusion: "Unconventional methods? What do you mean?"

“One of my students once told me that during a mission she encountered a monster that seemed to be from another world, and even plant-based spiritual energy could not cause it any fatal damage.”

Himiko paused for a moment, then continued, "But my student completely destroyed it with a sword drawn from a chosen technique."

"Wait, draw your sword?"

Mo Chen blinked, instantly recalling the weapon used by one of his ice beauties—a katana that happened to be her sixth-day chosen skill.

Unlike the raging fire in Himiko's mouth, the sword in Ji Bing's hand symbolizes ice and snow.

However, they are all swords, so there shouldn't be much difference between them, and they should be enough to deal with this strange mechanical insect.

Fortunately, Ji Bing, who was carrying a sword, happened to be in the exploration team he was leading.

Ji Bing, who had been taken away from the secret realm by Mo Chen, appeared beside the two of them, holding a trembling dagger in her hand.

"Xiao Bing, please use your sword to deal with this ugly thing."

Upon hearing this, Ji Bing nodded, then focused her attention on the mechanical insect beside her.

"Ling, is this what you sensed this time?"

"Yes, that's it. Things that shouldn't exist in the modern world. Cleaning them up is your duty as the knife protector."

Xue Zang Shuang Ling's ethereal voice rang in Ji Bing's ears, her tone particularly excited.

"The thing we sensed last time was dealt with by the Key Holder first. This time, it's our turn to show our might as well."

"Okay, I see."

Under the watchful eyes of Mo Chen and Himiko, Ji Bing drew the Snow Burial Frost Feather from its sheath and aimed the gleaming ice and snow katana at the mechanical insect.

Seemingly realizing that its doomsday was approaching, the mechanical insect, which had been lying still, immediately began to wriggle violently, as if it was planning to fight to the death.

But it sadly discovered that its thoughts and actions became unusually sluggish under the approaching blade.

Ji Bing simply swung the blade lightly and slashed down, the mechanical insect being cut in two like soft tofu.

This time, however, it showed no signs of self-healing and instead lost its last breath in the endless cold.

The projection of the guard's face on it, after flickering, went out completely.

"Has this been considered a release from suffering?" Mo Chen, who was watching, wondered.

"It's done."

Ji Bing sheathed her sword, turned around, and gave Mo Chen and Himiko a cute wink.

This child rarely acts cute, causing the rather old homeowner and his seniors (Mo Chen, 24 years old, and Himiko, 27 years old) to feel their hearts race.

【cute.】

The two exchanged glances and silently gave each other a thumbs-up from behind.

······

After the Guardian fused with the Chief Worm, it was successfully killed by the exploration team from Courtyard No. 5905.

The two major "local forces" at the military base have lost their leaders and are now a disorganized mess.

Mo Chen reaped the spoils of an entire military base, as well as a mechanized army that was only 10% intact.

Having achieved our goal, it's time to head back to the courtyard.

However, before that, the most important problem facing the exploration team was how to evacuate the military base.

A large number of Freedom Army troops have moved into the military base, led by a powerful Corn Cannon Plant Spirit.

To avoid getting into trouble, you must leave the military base quickly before they arrive at the command post.

"We should go, as soon as possible. The Freedom Army won't give us much time."

"Yes."

Mo Chen sent Himiko and Ji Bing into the secret realm, intending to act alone to avoid alerting the enemy.

When he returned to the bottom of the pit, many rebel soldiers had already engaged in firefights with the Legion's omnics guarding the command post.

With a sigh, Mo Chen glanced at the passage behind him, then without further hesitation, used Ender Movement to speed towards the back door of the command center.
