A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

Q: Can a plant have two faces?

A: Yes.

Pei Sinian was certain he had seen it; he was extremely sensitive to two faces because he was one in front of the little fool.

Mr. Zombie squinted and finally looked at the mutated plant.

In the apocalypse, besides the appearance of zombies, even the weather has become abnormal. If anything else appears, Mr. Zombie wouldn't be surprised.

The plant in front of me looks bizarre. It should be the opposite of wood, but it is wrapped in green flames. The grotesque barbs on its vines are dripping with blood that is hard to tell whether it is the blood of its prey or its own.

Its existence is beyond the scope of human research on plants. It does not need sunlight, grows underground, and has even managed to empty the underground of an entire county. It is indeed quite capable.

However, Pei Sinian did not sense a crystal core in this mutated plant. Normally, whether it is a zombie or a human with superpowers, there would be a crystal core in the head to store energy. The fact that the mutated plant did not have one was obviously abnormal.

Let's take it apart and see.

Pei Sinian handed something to Meng Xiaoyou, indicating that she should take it and play with it, and that he would be right back.

Looking at his broad back, Meng Xiaoyou pouted. "Look, is this human raising her like a child?"

She doesn't need toys.

However, she lowered her head.

Hmm, it's the ice mushroom Pei Sinian gave her last time. This time, under the dim light of the mutated plant, it shimmers with a starry green glow, and its color is more vibrant. It's more appealing to the mushroom than the last one.

Her eyes involuntarily curved into a smile as she clutched the ice mushroom in her hand, accompanied by the background music of Pei Sinian beating up the mutated plant.

The ice was icy cold. She shook her hand and tossed it into the space. The space bubble opened, and she accurately found the floating door. The purple mushroom was shaking its umbrella and was sleeping soundly without moving.

Meng Xiaoyou controlled her supernatural power and "planted" fake mushrooms carved from ice on the door. The ice mushrooms immediately changed color along with the row of small lights on the door, turning red and green, which was very festive.

She was eager to try it out; if she could get her hands on pink, blue, purple, or all sorts of colored lights, her ice mushrooms would be a riot of colors.

It looks so good!

While Pei Sinian was engaged in a fierce battle, with vines and wood chips flying everywhere, Mushroom took small steps to a corner, propped its chin on its hand, and starry-eyed, playing happily with an ice sculpture of a fake mushroom.

Until her clothes were tugged by something, she turned around, found nothing, blinked in confusion, and continued playing with the fake mushroom. Getting so engrossed in playing that she even hurt herself, accidentally touching the ice mushroom to her real body. The coldness made her shiver, a wisp of hair on her head stood up, and she gasped.

The purple mushroom in the space reacted similarly to her, its umbrellas trembling and its white stems taut. However, because the timid mushroom's consciousness was not in its main body, its main body remained asleep.

Bing didn't wake up at all, but Meng Xiaoyou was clear-headed. She finally managed to remember that Pei Sinian was still fighting. She looked up and wow! It was huge! A giant tree that looked like it was five stories high had been torn down in half.

The mutated plant frantically lashed out at its vines, trying to entangle Pei Sinian. Each time, Pei Sinian blocked it with an impenetrable ice wall, then froze the vines. As the ice pillars shattered, the vines also broke.

The ground was littered with the remains of vines and ice shards, while a few barely surviving humans lay sprawled on the ground on the other side.

Because Pei Sinian only cared about Meng Xiaoyou when dealing with the mutated plants, he didn't care about the lives of others and attacked indiscriminately. Those people were almost killed by the ice and were barely clinging to their last breath.

Meng Xiaoyou tilted her head and looked around. A vacuum zone had formed. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, neither Pei Sinian nor the mutated plants had spread the war to her side.

Seeing that Pei Sinian hadn't been abused by the mutated plants, Mushroom felt relieved. She scratched her slightly itchy back and continued poking around in the space.

Huh?

It seems like something's been added...

Just then, a loud bang came from above, startling Meng Xiaoyou. She quickly hugged her shovel tightly and looked up warily.

Then a beam of light shone down, followed by a series of humans with ropes tied around their waists, who slid down the ropes with practiced ease and grace. Unfortunately, they misjudged the depth of the underground world; the more impressive their start, the more pathetic they became later.

They were stuck in mid-air and couldn't get down.

The leader swayed in mid-air, shocked by the extent of the underground palace, even more shocked by the giant tree, and by Pei Sinian dismantling the mutated plants.

"Wang Gang, where are you? We're late!"

Zhou Ziming searched everywhere but couldn't find Wang Gang, and his heart skipped a beat.

Could it be a sacrifice?

Just then, a hand emerged from beneath a pile of blood-stained ice: "This... here."

Then my hand slipped and fell, and there was no more movement.

"Quickly go down and save them!"

The rescue team kicked their legs, realizing a serious problem: they couldn't get down...

Wang Ziming shouted, "Earth-type ability users, come on, and get some earth for us to step on."

This wasn't the first time Meng Xiaoyou had encountered earth-based superpowers. At the beginning of the apocalypse, there weren't many superpowered individuals, and earth-based superpowers were an important ability for establishing bases. They were very rare back then, but as time went on, this ability became quite common.

Perhaps in the near future, spatial abilities will be everywhere...

She watched helplessly as the earth rose from the ground, forming a platform, and the rescue team finally descended from mid-air to prepare to rescue people.

However, at this moment, an unexpected change occurred. The mutated plant, which was being suppressed, suddenly became anxious and went mad as if it had Parkinson's disease. As the human's earth-based superpowers rose, countless vines shot out from the depths of the ground and entangled everyone.

That's right, even Meng Xiaoyou was included.

She was caught off guard when the vine wrapped around her waist. She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt the tip of the vine brush against her. Before she could react, she was thrown up there with a "biu".

Pei Sinian cut the surrounding vines, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and rushed towards her, catching her steadily at the last second before she was thrown out of the hole.

The familiar scent enveloped the mushroom, and her initial fear subsided. She clutched the fabric of his shirt tightly, her fair cheek pressed against his chest.

The two rolled around on the ground, and the long-awaited sunlight shone on their faces. It wasn't scorching, but it was a little dazzling.

Other humans were also thrown out by the mutated plants like dumplings being dropped into a pot. Meng Xiaoyou climbed off Pei Sinian, squinting uncomfortably as she searched the crowd. She panicked when the underground merged.

She grabbed Pei Sinian's hand, pulled him up, and paced anxiously, "Little..."

Surrounded by humans, she changed the subject: "Hoho is still underground."

Being thrown out was a bit sudden, and the landing was also rushed. Pei Sinian was covered in dirt. He was always a clean freak and unhappily waved the dirt off his body. He used his water ability to wash it off and finally felt a little better. Seeing the little fool's anxious look, his eyebrows, which looked as if they had been carefully sculpted by God, furrowed slightly. "The underground entrance has closed."

Mushroom wiped its face listlessly, its tuft of hair drooping, "I lost my shovel too."

Meng Xiaoyou looked like a wilted eggplant after a frost.
