My Doomsday Farming Truck - Chapter 84

Soon Arther and Rose reached near the dead body of the vine monster. Arhter bent down to watch the flower carefully while Rose stood behind him aiming the gun towards the flower.

When taking a closer look they were able to find the minutes characteristics of the flower, the widely spread petals still had a high amount of moisture and were plump, when he felt their surface instead of the soft leaf-like touch they had fine hairs on the surface.

After confirming that the monster was truly dead he stepped on the petals and walked inside the wide-open mouth.

When he peeped inside he saw the reason for the defeat of this thing. Inside the mouth, a long metal Javelin had pierced the body vertically directly cutting off the main stalk of the flower, and was inserted deep inside the mud below.

This made him happy since the ballista had such a great power while also relieved for the luck, fortunately, this single shot pierced the stalk otherwise this might be their end. From here he also found many things such as the entire swamp’s water was absorbed by this monster to grow rapidly.

He then picked up a vine and confirming that the vines still retained a little bit of their strength and flexibility after death he started the work..

Using the military-grade knife he had confiscated from Rose he first cut off all the vines, after wounding them together he handed them to Rose, the total weight of these vines were not to be trifled with, even Rose had to let more than half the length of the vines to remain on the ground, she pulled all the vines in few batches to the solid ground.

While at the same time Arther started dissecting the petals of the flower, these things were more almost some meter long and they had many uses, there were a total of 20 petals, 14 big and 6 small ones. Then came the mouth the first thing he took was the tongue, ‘this can be converted into a good weapon’, then removed the Javelin. When he saw the inserted half of the Javelin he was shocked, as the tip of the Javelin made of gold has turned dark in color while the metal behind showed signs of melting.

Finding this he hurriedly and carefully used the Javelin to dig out the mud around the flower revealing the entire body and the broken stalk. Without much thinking he directly held the stalk and picked it up along with the entire flower mouth and took it to the solid ground.

When he brought the flower body out he found that everyone else had already exited the MCV and were warily observing the body parts of the vine monster which Rose and Arther had piled on the ground. The most curious one was naturally Mey. Being a botanist these things can be considered as a treasure for her.

Seeing Arther bringing the huge main body of the flower Mey ran to his side and helped him carefully put it down and then looked at him with pitiful eyes. “OK! aunt, you can study these things but you have to make sure you don’t use up all the parts we might need them in the future.”, seeing Arther agree Mey cheered with fists in the air and nodded towards him to assure him of the use of parts.

“Oh! I would suggest you wait for few days as I am thinking of preparing a laboratory for you. You should start drawing the designs instead.” Arther spoke to her seeing her running toward the flower.

“WHAT! are you saying the truth?”, when she heard what Arther said she jumped up to turn her attention towards Arther. Nanny standing with Jessy was shocked seeing such a side of her mother while also was happy that her mother was happy. A small smile bloomed on her scared face.

“Hehehe, why would I lie to you. With the materials from the warehouse, we are going to make an overall upgrade to the MCV. I am also thinking of making separate rooms for all of you, I will provide you a certain area in the MCV and you can customize them yourself.”, hearing this announcement everyone had a happy smile, especially Nanny. She was already swinging her fists in the air and dancing around. ‘Yey!, finally I will get freedom from that devil.’

Jessy who was also happily cheering felt as if she had lost something good, but then the happiness of finally having her own room swept that feeling.

Arther was also happily observing them, while Rose standing behind him didn’t know what she was feeling, sad? since they were going to loot the warehouse and she will responsible for that, or……Jealous?!

She had her own happy family, but after knowing what the outside world might have changed into, she didn’t dare to think about what might have happened with her parents. She didn’t believe the law and order will protect them. In such a condition where even the military easily left them to fend for themselves and also gave up on the warehouse, she wasn’t a fool to how for her family who was just some ordinary people to be saved by them.

Arther watched his family for a few minutes before turning towards Rose, he smiled at her seeing her lost expression.

“Jealous?”

His question shocked her and before she could reject he spoke again,

“Hehe, if you want you can join my team. Anyways the military and government have already fallen.”

Rose hesitated for a few seconds to make the decision and then took a deep breath and handed him the pistol.

“Sorry Arther, my conscience won’t allow me to betray the country.”, hearing Arther was a bit surprised and also felt like a joke.

“Even though I can’t join you we still have the deal, you will save my comrades and take us out of this forest to the nearest city and you can take everything from the warehouse.”, thinking that Arther might get a wrong meaning of her rejection she hurriedly explained.

“Hmm, if you say so. I hope your conscience will still remain strong after seeing the outside world.”, after leaving this sentence Arther turned and walked towards the MCV, but when Rose heard this sentence there was a peng in her heart and fear crept over her chest. She didn’t know what but there was a hidden meaning behind this sentence.
