My Monster Fuses Everything

Chapter 91: Chapter 89: The Survivor of the Warehouse

Ye Kailing's actions were swift; she drew up the new winch crossbow blueprints overnight. Significant improvements were made to the aiming system and the structure of the crossbow itself, increasing the weapon's power significantly.

Su Han instructed the demon spider warriors to keep casting metal, and in a short time, they had produced forty winch crossbows, along with one thousand hollow metal crossbow arrows.

Thirty of the winch crossbows were allocated to those going on the expedition, with the remaining ten handed over to the patrol team staying behind at the camp.

"Su Han, take a look at this route."

Zhu Xiong approached Su Han with a map, which not only marked the route to the Aoke Biological Research Center but also highlighted another location.

"What's this place?"

"It's a private rice storage. The owner runs a rice noodle workshop. I've had goods transported from there before, and it has about 4 tons in reserve."

Zhu Xiong pondered, "This place isn't well known beyond supermarkets, so there should still be rice. Should we make a detour?"

He pointed to another spot nearby, "There are also two small supermarkets in the vicinity. There should be some supplies there, but I don't know if they've already been taken."

More than a month into the apocalypse, there were not a few survivors, either lone wolves or small groups. Where there are people alive, naturally, someone would be eyeing the surrounding resources.

"Let's go and see; take as much as we can. Bring a few more trucks."

Su Han thought for a moment before speaking, "You, Ye Kailing, Zhang Dahai, and Guo Gang will lead the team. Take thirty people with you."

"Got it. I'll go gather the people now."

With over ninety people in the camp and roughly seventy who had entered into contracts, the rest either wanted to but hadn't yet accumulated enough contribution.

Without needing special instructions from Su Han, those who entered the camp had to work unless Su Han directly permitted a contract. After supplying energy to the Lamp Tree each day, everyone had to satisfy a certain amount of labor, whether it was tilling the fields, doing laundry, or cooking, all to maintain the camp's operations.

Only then could they accumulate enough contribution value to request the opportunity to contract.

This was the order of the camp, securing more than just safety through labor.

Similarly, contractors who wanted to become stronger and obtain more powerful serums needed contribution value.

Members like Zhao Yimin, Xia Ning, and Bai Xiao'e, who had previously obtained a batch of serums, had developed scales after injecting the Half-Fish Monster's serum and had officially entered the First-level Intermediate rank.

Although they were not as strong as Guo Gang and others, they were still useful.

As Zhu Xiong went to assemble the team, Su Han took the opportunity to modify the dump trucks for the expedition using metal.

Thanks to the abundant metal, this round of modifications included not only reinforcing the front of the vehicles but also expanding and reinforcing the overall structure and fuel tanks, making it nearly impossible for First Order Upper Grade monsters to easily shake these 'metal beasts'.

"I'll come with you too."

Just as he was modifying the vehicles, Bai Qilan approached Su Han from behind.

"You're coming too?"

Su Han frowned slightly. Bai Qilan was the only researcher at Shanhu Villa, and she had achieved significant results. Losing her to danger would be a great loss.

"If I don't go, do you know what to bring back?"

Bai Qilan said with a slight lift of her mouth, her bright eyes smiling at Su Han.

"...."

Su Han paused, realizing he indeed didn't know what specifically to bring back; his only thought was to take everything he could. Now reminded by Bai Qilan, he felt unsure because what if something was damaged?

"You come along too."

The team was ready, deploying four trucks and two jeeps. Everyone was spread out in the vehicles, all wearing tight, thin iron armor and nearly each person equipped with a winch crossbow.

Su Han and Bai Qilan sat in the lead truck, with Old Zhu driving and Su Han in the passenger seat, while Bai Qilan sat in the back row.

The vehicles slowly left Shanhu Villa. The security booth and main entrance had already been transformed, currently watched over by Cheng Xiyuan and his team.

They traveled at an even pace, following the planned route, while the crystals of the Lamp Tree continuously dispelled the fog ahead.

Due to the rush to travel, Su Han did not summon the Human-faced Tree but used the crystals of the Lamp Tree for illumination—one at the front of the convoy, one in the middle jeep, and one with Guo Gang's team at the end.

Though Su Han and his group had five Lamp Trees, and more than ninety people supplied energy each day, spreading it across each tree meant only about ten people per tree. Therefore, the crystallization was not particularly fast. At that moment, there were only three lychee-sized crystals and four or five thumb-sized crystals still on the trees.

The crystals still on the trees could not be touched for the time being because the crop fields entirely depended on their light. If the glow disappeared for too long, the crops would die.

This also meant that Su Han had to temporarily postpone the idea of continuing to fuse Crystals, but it wasn't a big issue.

"There are flesh zombies on the left, four of them."

Zhu Xiong's eyes were sharp, and he had already spotted the flesh zombies that were stirring beside the street.

"Keep driving."

Su Han picked up the winch crossbow, leaned out of the car window, aimed at one of the zombies, and pulled the trigger; the sound of the metal arrow piercing the head with a "thwack."

Not bad for firepower!

Before he could reload the crossbow and shoot again, the remaining three flesh zombies had already charged, only to be immediately crushed under the wheels of the truck without making a sound.

After all, their truck had been modified from a dumper, heavier by several tons. It would be a joke if flesh zombies could cause it any harm.

As they drove over, there was an attack from a Giant Claw Zombie, but it was quickly dispatched by Zhu Xiong on the roof of the truck who, with his Strength Burst skill, smashed it with his hammer.

"There's the warehouse ahead, but it looks like there are quite a few flesh zombies."

As the vehicle gradually approached the predetermined location, and the fog dissipated, more shapes of flesh zombies began to appear.

"Get out and clean them up."

Su Han's voice came through, and everyone immediately summoned their Apostles and then attacked those flesh zombies; the Apostles serving as cover, while everyone with winch crossbows aimed at the zombies, one arrow for each, cleaning them up swiftly.

Su Han did not make a move, but the red light in his hand flickered, and the Human-faced Tree appeared behind him.

Radiance of the Lamp Tree

As soon as the Human-faced Tree appeared, its vines extended out, and then branches and vines lit up, illuminating the entire block, revealing the figures of more monsters.

Flesh zombies, Giant Macrophage Dogs, Rot Skin Rats... The crimson eyes targeted Su Han and his group, numbering more than a hundred. There were quite a few monsters in this district.

"Zombies in the front, fire the crossbow arrows freely, they've all got iron armor."

Zhu Xiong shouted, and his large Apostle had already charged into the crowd of monsters, swinging a huge hammer with each blow accompanied by the sound of breaking bones.

"First Order Upper Grade?"

A look of surprise flashed in Su Han's eyes, and he smiled. He had not expected Zhu Xiong to have broken through; the strength of his Apostle had clearly increased significantly compared to a few days ago, and his build had become even more imposing.

"Swoosh swoosh"

The sound of crossbow arrows being shot continuously rang out. Although there were many monsters, their numbers were rapidly dwindling under the coordinated attacks of the Apostles and the crossbow arrows.

Su Han watched the dying flesh zombies and with a thought, extended the vines, entwining and wrapping up the zombies' corpses.

[Detected fusion material: flesh zombie blood and flesh. Fuse?]

Fuse

Over a hundred monsters were not few in number, perfect for adding some Fusion Degree to the LV1 flesh zombie tissue. The monsters they killed in this sortie surely amounted to more than these.

Thin filaments continuously fused the blood and flesh of the zombies, even the blood spread on the ground due to the fighting, as the battle still raged on, with more flesh zombies and monsters surging out from buildings.

But none could breach the defense line of the group; one after another, they were slain. After more than ten minutes, the frequency of the monsters' attacks gradually lessened, and finally, no more charged out.

"The grain storage is up ahead, turn left at the end of the street for the supermarket. Old Guo, you and Ye Kailing take people to the supermarket."

Zhu Xiong assigned tasks, and Su Han did not intervene, instead letting the Human-faced Tree continue fusing the nearly two hundred monsters' corpses.

Zhu Xiong and the others split into two groups to act. Their movements were swift and proficient, and even without Su Han's participation, they displayed the capability to scout and search for resources. This was what Su Han had wanted.

Zhu Xiong arrived at the warehouse exterior where the metal gate was locked tight. He said to one of his teammates, "Let's break open the gate together, quickly. If that doesn't work, we'll use the truck to pull it."

"Brother Zhu, rest assured. It's a small matter."

The surrounding people responded, ready to move forward, when suddenly a voice came from inside, "Wait, there are people inside, not monsters."

The surprise at the voice caused Zhu Xiong to pause. People inside?

"Clatter"

With the voice, the rolling shutter door slowly opened, revealing a group of people holding various sticks and kitchen knives, warily watching this side, with their Apostles firmly blocking in front of them.
