Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Upon seeing the fluorescent green ocean, Zuli's first thought was of nuclear radiation.

He glanced at the radiation meter beside the train. The radiation level it displayed was significantly higher than before, posing a threat to the lives and health of ordinary Earthlings. However, this meter was based on the physical condition of Su Li and his companions, so it hadn't yet issued an alarm.

"How come the radiation level has increased so much?" Ivan asked, somewhat surprised, as he saw the numbers on the monitor. "Is this green water radioactive?"

"Go down and check it out. But I don't think it's likely."

Everyone got out of the car. Su Li came to the shore. Gazing at the green water, she thought for a moment and prepared to take some samples in glass bottles.

As a result, the glass bottle dissolved after being put in.

"Is this considered a strong acid? It can't be hydrofluoric acid, can it? Hydrofluoric acid doesn't react this quickly."

Zuli discarded the glass and tried other containers. After some searching, she discovered that the gold container could hold the liquid.

"It's incredibly corrosive, and it contains a lot of energy." After examining it, Su Li said, "Let's collect some; storing them is too much trouble."

Coco and Ivan were assigned to collect water here, while Zuli continued to explore the surrounding area.

He first walked to the side of the pile of meat, which was covered with a layer of gray-green miasma, which drifted like the smoke that was blown into the refrigerated meat counter in a supermarket.

Su Li took out a spare iron greatsword, swung it at the mountain of flesh, and cut off a piece of meat.

It smelled terrible, and it felt very fatty to the touch. Fortunately, the environment here was so harsh that there were no insects.

Su Li examined the material once more: Chen Hua's decaying bone marrow, decomposed by pathogens. The power it contained had long since vanished over an unknown period of time. Now, the only purpose of this bone marrow was to serve as food for the local creatures.

Judging from this, the beast's cultivation level isn't very high.

When one reaches a certain level of cultivation, the most basic characteristic is that the body does not decay after death. Some powerful beings can even give life to their corpses.

Su Li casually tossed the piece of meat down; it could only be used as fertilizer.

"Wait a minute," Sophia suddenly called out to Su Li.

She came to the spot where Su Li had cut open the mountain of flesh and asked with some confusion, "Can you smell something very nice?"

Zuli's expression was very strange.

The smell here is not pleasant at all.

What kind of delicious smell would a corpse that has been rotting for hundreds of millions of years and is still not completely rotten have?

Zuli has already figured out the situation of this world. The green gel on the outside is the muscle and skin tissue of the planet's behemoths, and the asphalt and oil are products of high-temperature and high-pressure decomposition. The nitrogen and methane in the atmosphere are gases produced after the decomposition of corpses.

Beneath the ground, the remaining flesh was still being decomposed by bacteria that had evolved locally. The gases released from the decomposition would continuously float upwards. When a certain amount was reached, under the influence of the special magical energy contained within and the softening effect of the gel caused by the high temperature, these gases would bubble out, resulting in the boiling ground they had seen earlier.

This place is actually quite beautiful. The crystallized bones around it are exquisite, and when combined with the polymer of flesh and blood, as well as various monsters, it creates a unique and slightly bizarre aesthetic.

But once you add the hellish smell here, all the beauty becomes nonsense.

In this situation, Sofia said to herself, "It smells nice?"

"You don't understand. The smell of the thesis defense and the smell of perfume are actually the same substance. The soul ingredient of top perfumes is precisely diluted skatole. My sense of smell is more sensitive than yours, and I also know more about cooking than you. There must be something very delicious here."

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. Just listen to me, cut this mountain of flesh open."

Su Li shrugged and obediently listened to his wife.

A sword aura erupted from the greatsword, and under Su Li's control, it sliced ​​through the mountain of flesh.

The Mountain of Flesh had been cut open to a depth of nearly 10 meters. Su Li sheathed her greatsword and looked at the cut surface of the Mountain of Flesh.

The color of this cross-section is very interesting.

The exterior is a disgusting red and green color, but inside, the green part increases, eventually turning into a texture like jade.

Sofia took off her mask, sniffed the contents, and then her eyes lit up with surprise. "Indeed, this contains very good ingredients."

Sofia took out her skinning knife and cut some flesh from the cut surface of the mountain of flesh. Then, without hesitation, she put it into her mouth.

"Huh?" Su Li looked disgusted.

Sophia noticed Su Li's disdain and rolled her eyes at him. "What's wrong with that? It's fermented food. It's not like we don't have fermented food on Earth. The stinky tofu, soybean paste, and stinky mandarin fish that you Chinese often eat are all like this."

"And fermented black beans, natto, blue cheese..."

Sofia started rattling off examples, all of which Su Li had heard of. Some of them were even foods he liked to eat.

Su Li couldn't refute this time, but she felt quite uncomfortable.

Sophia cut off some more meat from the mountain of flesh and explained, "The miasma outside is very peculiar. It breaks down this flesh into highly nutritious ingredients, and the magical energy conversion inside is very interesting. I can feel that these ingredients are very helpful to the body and can effectively improve physical attributes."

"These on the outside are green with a touch of red, while the ones inside are pure green. This is a new type of ingredient. The way this ingredient is prepared is through fermentation and maturation, which is how many types of ham are made."

"The effects of the ingredients inside are somewhat peculiar, retaining more of the original flavor of the ingredients. Eating it should provide a boost to one's defensive capabilities."

After saying that, Sofia stretched out her arm. "Want to touch it?"

Su Li reached out and touched Sophia's arm, feeling his fingertips touch a somewhat hard layer of energy. He knew Sophia's physical condition very well; even an airport wouldn't have such a hard layer.

"By consuming it directly, one can gain a certain amount of energy armor. This behemoth's ability should be defensive in nature."

After Sofia finished speaking, she took out two strips of meat and held them up to Su Li's face. "Try them. I'm not lying to you. They're very clean."

Zuli looked very resistant, but she couldn't resist Sofia's insistence, so she could only open her mouth and eat the meat strips in several portions.

Then, a delicious storm swept through his brain, and his eyes lit up as he looked at the emerald-like meat.

Really fragrant!
