A knock on the door interrupted Lu Sheng's thoughts.

It's Sun Tiantian.

"Wang Mengdie called just now and asked us if we had seen Wang Menglu." Sun Tiantian was worried and looked down from the window sill. "Wang Menglu went downstairs to pick mushrooms today and then disappeared."

"Missing? In school?"

Sun Tiantian nodded, "Just go downstairs for ten minutes and there will be no one there. When Wang Mengdie went downstairs to look for it, he only found one shoe downstairs."

"She was almost going crazy with anxiety. Everyone in the building asked questions."

Lu Sheng frowned slightly. Although there was chaos outside, the Beijing University campus was still calm. Especially good introverted and shy girls like the Wang sisters were less likely to offend others.

"Where did you find the shoes?" Lu Sheng asked after thinking for a moment.

"It's under the tree opposite our window."

Lu Sheng raised his eyes and glanced in the direction of Sun Tiantian's finger.

It’s this ginkgo tree again!

First there were the bodies of Lin Dong and Qin Beast, and then the missing Wang Menglu. Three people had disappeared under the ginkgo tree.

…

At night, the temperature dropped a few degrees again.

Lu Sheng put on a neat long coat and trousers, and quietly went downstairs carrying a cat bag.

If something went wrong, there must be a monster, and she wanted to see what happened to this ginkgo tree.

Just as he walked out of the apartment door on the first floor, Lu Sheng paused.

But in just a few hours, the ginkgo tree became more prosperous.

Its trunk became thicker and more powerful, and the bark on the surface revealed a deep silver-grey luster. The branches became more tangled and intertwined, like a huge tentacle, stretching towards the sky.

The green on the leaves is so thick that it turns black, exuding a strong vitality, and there is a strange light shining between the leaves. Whenever the night wind blows, the branches and leaves sway with the wind, making a creepy rustling sound, which makes people shudder.

At the roots of the ginkgo tree, the roots that were originally buried deep in the ground have also undergone tremendous changes. They are intertwined and burst out of the soil, and the surface is covered with textures like snake scales. These roots are no longer just for absorbing water from the soil.

Instead, it becomes like a tentacle, squirming in search of more sources of life.

"It...its index is 15..."

Zhuang Zhuang's voice trembled, and his two paws clung tightly to Lu Sheng's shoulders.

The corners of Lu Sheng's lips rose.

The mutated plant with a combat power index of 15 is just used to experiment with the upgraded loot system.

She drew out her long knife and slowly walked towards the ginkgo tree.

The tip of the knife scratched across the stone road, splashing out sparks.

Sensing an intruder within the range, the branches of the mutated ginkgo tree were like tentacles, attacking Lu Sheng crazily.

Lu Sheng jumped up lightly and dodged the attack of the branches. The long knife flashed with cold light and neatly slashed at the branches that tried to entangle her.

The ginkgo tree controlled the underground roots and quickly emerged under her feet, trying to trap her.

As the roots surged, some blood-soaked clothes were shaken to the ground.

Some men's summer clothes, and a girl's big-toe shoe.

These three people were indeed eaten by the ginkgo tree...

The attack of the ginkgo tree became more and more urgent, and the soaring crown of the tree was like a big umbrella, gradually shrouding Lu Sheng in darkness.

"Quick decision, brother! I'm about to be vomited by you..."

Zhuang Zhuang retched twice and patted Lu Sheng with his little paw.

Lu Sheng found the right moment and condensed the electric arc on the blade. As she swung the knife neatly, lightning bolts shot like sharp arrows towards the trunk of the mutated ginkgo tree. The huge electric current spread on the trunk, and the ginkgo tree trembled with pain.

.

Taking advantage of the gap when the ginkgo tree's attack weakened, Lu Sheng rushed under the tree and pierced the root of the ginkgo tree deeply with his long knife. The bright electric light penetrated deeply into the root of the tree along the blade.

The power of thunder raged, and the ginkgo tree could not withstand such powerful energy. It screamed in pain, and its body began to collapse, eventually turning into ruins.

[Item obtained: Multifunctional pressure cooker]

[Items obtained: 2000 points]

[Get additional special rewards: Intermediate strengthening serum x1]

As the ginkgo tree died, the cold system prompt sounded again.

What is a strengthening serum?

Lu Sheng curiously clicked on the system items panel.

"After drinking it, you can be reborn, and your physical endurance and body resistance will increase many times, which can help you better adapt to the apocalyptic survival environment. Taste: Strawberry flavor, adverse reactions: women are likely to have increased body hair."

I finally waited for you~ Fortunately, I didn’t give up~

Lu Sheng couldn't help but hum the song softly.

In the apocalypse, it is difficult to move without superpowers. If the force value is low, she can only be a two-legged sheep unable to resist when the order collapses. After her rebirth, she once thought about training Sun Tiantian well, but she could not bear to let Sun Tiantian suffer.

Ever since he unlocked the loot system, Lu Sheng had been thinking about when he could get something useful, but he didn't expect that it would be so easy to get as soon as he upgraded.

No need to study hard, no need to exercise scientifically, just a cup of strawberry juice will make you stronger in minutes!

Why endure hardships when you can win? Her girl just wants to be held in the palm of your hand!

Back in 403, Lu Sheng took a shower first. When he was blow-drying his hair, he suddenly felt a chill and couldn't help but sneeze.

Lu Sheng felt something bad, so he plugged in the water-heated blanket, took out two quilts and spread them on the bed, and finally got into bed with his chubby Zhuang Zhuang in his arms.

The battle with the ginkgo tree consumed a lot of her energy. Lu Sheng sent Sun Tiantian and Xu Yi a WeChat reminder to cool down, then fell asleep clutching her phone.

Early the next morning, Lu Sheng was woken up by a knock on the door.

As soon as the door opened, Sun Tiantian came over with a sweaty face, holding two thermal bags in her hands, "Look what we caught?"

Lu Sheng opened it and saw several plump wild rabbits.

"The rabbit is so cute, so I'll add more spice later," said Lu Sheng, a loyal lover of spicy rabbit heads.

Following them to 402, they discovered that Sun Tiantian had already prepared a pot of fragrant preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and had specially prepared a meaty bowl for Lu Sheng.

Eat it with refreshing cold side dishes, and your body will feel warm immediately.

It turned out that Xu Yi, Sun Tiantian and Xiao Yu went out to look for supplies in the early morning. They had run out of ammunition and food within a few kilometers of the area. They went to the mountains near the outskirts of the city and found a few hares.

We also found some goral footprints, so for safety reasons the three of us came back first to change into equipment before heading out.

"If we can hunt down a few gorals, we should be able to save some meat for a year and a half. Or we can find Xiao Zhu in exchange for other supplies."

After eating, Xiao Yu suggested.

As the temperature drops to normal, more and more people will go out to look for supplies. If they move slowly, it is likely that even the suburbs will be cleared out.

Even if you can't find the goral, you can still catch some hares.
