Zhang Bei was still immersed in the information just now when he left the Appraisal Center. Heavens, was this a peashooter? Even the peashooter was released? Who could match its destructive power?

Since it was a seed, he returned to his tent without a word and took out a flower pot to place the seed inside. Then, he poured a bottle cap of diluted growth agent into the pot.

However, what he did not expect was that the seed did not even move after the lid of the growth agent was poured. Zhang Bei did not give up. He poured another two lids of growth liquid, but the seed still did not move.

‘Could it be that the level of this seed is too high, and this growth agent is useless?’ Zhang Bei looked at it for more than an hour, but the seed still did not move.

He yawned and lay on the bed, wondering if it would show effect tomorrow morning. Perhaps the absorption of this seed was slower.

The sun rose. The first thing Zhang Bei did after waking up was to run to look at the seed he had planted yesterday.

What surprised him was that in just a short night, that seed had already grown into a sapling.

It seemed like it was still a matter of time. He discovered that this thing had four leaves. There was a round bean pod on the top. On the other side of the bean pod was a small leaf, and on the other side was a horn-shaped hole.

Then, he carefully observed the mouth of the loudspeaker. There were two black spots like dots on the loudspeaker, looking at him like two eyeballs.

Zhang Bei was confused. Why did it look more and more like a plant in a game?

He wondered if there were other plants in the Plant City. For example, those that could breathe fire and spray water. Then, he was amused by his idea and laughed for a long time.

Suddenly, Zhang Bei heard a rustling sound outside. He picked up the kitchen knife and silently walked out of the tent. He realized that there was a snake outside and it was moving over secretly.

Since there is a monster here, let’s deal with it first. Zhang Bei did not place any hope on the peashooter on the table.

Even if this was a peashooter, it was only a few centimeters long, what could it do? Could he really count on it to spray the snake to death?

Zhang Bei walked over with the kitchen knife, preparing to kill the little snake with one strike.

Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound behind him. He turned around in confusion and cursed. He saw the little pea in the flower pot trying its best to shrink its mouth and bend back.

With a few poo poo poo sounds, a few beans flew out of the mouth of the small loudspeaker and hit the little snake.

The little snake seemed to reveal a disdainful smile, and then it charged towards Zhang Bei while dodging the beans. But what the snake and Zhang Bei did not expect was that after the beans fell to the ground, they actually formed an ice surface. This snake slipped on the ice and arrived in front of Zhang Bei. Zhang Bei slashed the snake in half.

Looking at the two halves of the snake in front of him, he came to his senses. Zhang Bei looked at the little sapling in the flower pot in surprise. He had never expected such a small sapling to create such a huge ice surface. Then, when it reached maturity, wouldn’t it be even more powerful?

This little thing was really very good. Its range was very far, and its power was very terrifying. Moreover, it basically had an aiming function. But perhaps it was still too small now and did not have any automatic aiming for now since the little snake was able to dodge its beans.

Zhang Bei looked at the nine pea seeds in the box and decided to plant them all at once. He planted a whole circle around his shelter.

When he returned to the tent, he realized that the little pea was already a little dispirited. Even the leaves had bent down. It seemed like the pea needed time to recover before it could continue spewing beans.

He took out all the growth agent and poured it into the water bottle. Then, he began to water the peas.

He watered them one by one and looked at them. He thought that by tomorrow, they should be able to attack invaders. If that was the case, would he still need to be afraid of anything? Any animal that came would be bombarded by these ten peas.

It would be great if he could find other peashooters like cactus and potato-mine. Zhang Bei thought happily. He did not imagine that in the future, everything he said would become reality. At that time, the danger he would face would also become greater and greater.

After dealing with the plants, Zhang Bei cut the steel plates that he had removed from the other shelter into strips and added them to the middle of the tent. He also reinforced the concrete layer with a layer of steel plates.

Last time, a bull easily bored through the concrete with its horns. With another layer of steel, it should be more firm.

After doing this, he washed his hands and looked at the orderly environment. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride. It turned out that he could still live happily in this place. Although he missed his family, he was still alive and well. His parents must be very happy to know that he was still working hard in life. Furthermore, they must also be working hard somewhere.

Rumble. His stomach growled. Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, he decided to have a bonfire party that night.

Zhang Bei picked up the sharp thorny brambles and cut some beef and chicken meat. He also put on some chicken wings, tore some cabbage, and put them on the sticks.

He thought for a moment and took out two pieces of sausages. He scored them lightly and put them to the side.

He placed some dried brambles on the ground. He had wanted to use the flame stick to ignite them, but he suddenly thought of the little yellow chick, so he flicked its head and said, “Hurry up and spit out the fire to ignite this pile of thorns.”

The little yellow chick tilted its head and spat out a ball of fire at the thorns. Then, it chirped for a while as if it was asking for a reward from Zhang Bei. He broke off half a piece of cabbage and threw it into its bowl. “Eat it.” The little yellow chick pecked at the cabbage happily.

Zhang Bei started roasting the skewers one by one. He would add some salt and black pepper when they were almost done cooking. There was a different feeling to eating food in the primitive style.

After eating and drinking his fill, he looked at the peashooters. All of them had tiny sprouts, and two tender leaves were swaying.

Back in the tent, he collapsed on the bed. Suddenly, the detector glowed purple. He rubbed his eyes. Yes, pure purple light.

Zhang Bei became serious and sent his consciousness into the detector.
