251 Crazy plants! (1/2)

Ren Xiaosu was squatting in the snow. The blizzard had become terrifyingly heavy. However, he did not at all care because he was fully focused on the seeds he had just planted into the ground.

After planting the Bramble, Ren Xiaosu had traded for another five seeds.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

There were about ten different types of seeds in the window slot of the vending machine. But after inserting the gratitude tokens, the vending machine dispensed another four Bramble seeds and one khaki-colored seed.

It seemed that Seeds was similar to the Explosive Poker item that he had. It was easier for him to get his hands on the more common seeds. When he traded for Explosive Poker, three and four were the most common cards dispensed by the vending machine. Occasionally, it would also dispense out one or two 5s, but Ren Xiaosu had never seen any higher-numbered cards than that.

The Brambles behaved in a very aggressive manner. Ren Xiaosu reckoned that if supernatural beings entered its attack range, few people would survive an attack. So Ren Xiaosu was still quite satisfied with this new product.

But what use did this khaki-colored seed have?

After this seed was planted, it sprouted at a much slower rate. It wasn't until ten minutes later that green buds started sprouting out of the ground.

He could see the buds starting to grow. But even at this point, the plant did not seem like anything special.

A moment later, Ren Xiaosu was stunned. He watched a pocketlike structure form at the top of the plant. His mental consciousness then connected with it.

When Ren Xiaosu focused his mind, a potato about the size of a fist shot out at high speed from the pocketlike structure of the plant. It was just like firing an artillery shell.

This was… a potato shooter!

What the hell! Ren Xiaosu was speechless. He already understood how this plant worked through its connection with his consciousness. It turned out to be an automatic rifle of the plant kingdom that could shoot up to 30 potatoes each day.

Ren Xiaosu felt that it couldn't get any more useless than this. Any automatic rifle would be more powerful than this thing, alright? Guns could not only shoot faster, they were also more lethal than this.

It seemed like other than being automatically alert to its surroundings, there was nothing else good about it.

Moreover, wouldn't it be a waste to spit out all those potatoes? They were food after all!

Ren Xiaosu suddenly looked at the Potato Shooter: ”Spit out the potatoes for me.”

The Potato Shooter spat out the remaining 29 potatoes that it had stored underground. Ren Xiaosu smacked his lips. ”High-speed food production, that's pretty useful. We can have potatoes for dinner tonight.”

Even the palace did not expect Ren Xiaosu to use an offensive plant like this as a food crop.

But all of a sudden, he heard the crunching of snow coming from across the way. Ren Xiaosu immediately raised his guard. Someone was walking over from the opposite side!

Currently, the rest of the Li Consortium's regular forces were garrisoned at the front line at Mt. Fengyi. What regular force would venture out into these mountains for no apparent reason? Everyone would travel by the main roads, and only special forces like the Divine Arms Battalion would trek through mountains and rivers.

Could they be from the Divine Arms Battalion as well? But they were not moving in the same direction.

If so… they must be enemies!

Ren Xiaosu quietly withdrew. When he stepped on the snowy ground, he used the tiptoes so he would not make a sound.

He retreated to a distance far away and hid behind a large tree. There shouldn't be that many enemy troops and they were most probably just a scouting party. The only thing he did not know was whether they were from the Qing Consortium or the Yang Consortium.

He saw 30 people walking cautiously in the snow in a long single file. They had people taking turns to forge a path in the snow as they moved along like wolves.
