High-level martial arts: Contract cashback, invincible starting from the Zerg.

Chen Feng nodded happily and followed Bai Fei deeper into the cultivation area.

The further in you go into the cultivation area of ​​the crystal vines, the more diverse the forms of these combat plants become.

The first thing that catches the eye is a row of dark green vines growing close to the bulkhead. Their main vines are as thick as an arm, covered with a hard shell that resembles the texture of rock, and their roots are tightly wrapped around the warship floor.

With Bai Fei's appearance, the vines all pointed towards her, like tiny roots moving according to their master's will.

"This is Rock Skin Crystal Vine, a variant of the Crystal Vine."

As Bai Fei raised her hand, she brushed it across the resin glass on the side of the tunnel.

Rock Skin Crystal Vine immediately moved closer to the resin glass, following Bai Fei's fingertips as they moved quickly.

"They can absorb metal elements and some energy to strengthen themselves. Their growth rate is the fastest among crystal vines. In wartime, they can cover the entire outer wall of a fortification in just over ten minutes, forming biological armor. If the Purple Insectoids are magical creatures, the Rock Skin Crystal Vine can just suppress their energy bursts," Bai Fei said.

"good."

Further inside, golden dust began to rise from the resin glass space.

Chen Feng glanced to the side and saw that thousands of golden spores were suspended from the dome of that compartment, looking as dazzling as stars.

On the insectoid fungal carpet, there were more than a dozen umbrella-shaped crystalline vines. They did not have thick roots or a frightening appearance, but their canopies were covered with dense clusters of golden spores.

With each breath, it releases hundreds of golden spores.

"This is the second direction of the crystal vine body, the spore network crystal plant, which is mainly responsible for reconnaissance and early warning."

Bai Fei stopped in front of the resin glass and explained to Chen Feng.

"These spores have almost no energy fluctuations. If it were just an ordinary spore next to you, even a Heavenly Realm expert might not notice it. But once these spores spread out, they can cover a radius of ten kilometers around the crystal plant. As long as a specific life energy or mechanical unit enters, the spores will immediately transmit information back."

"It's more useful than the Zerg Hunter, and much more stealthy," Chen Feng exclaimed with a smile.

...

When Chen Feng followed Bai Fei to the end of the Crystal Vine Cultivation Area.

The scenery ahead of the tunnel suddenly softened.

Several rows of crystalline vines were adorned with clusters of fruits the size of pigeon eggs, their skins a translucent pale pink that gleamed with a moist sheen under bioluminescence.

On the tunnel door, there were three pots of tender green leaves with no sharp teeth or rock fragments on the edges, only extremely rounded leaves, emitting a faint fragrance of grass and trees.

"These are the 'delicious' things." Bai Fei's tone carried a hint of a smile as she reached out and picked a fruit, handing it to Chen Feng.

"These are the weaker plants in the Crystal Vine. Because they don't meet the standards to become combat plants, I transformed them into regular fruits, Honey Dew Crystal Fruits."

Chen Feng calmly looked at the fruit, and when he saw the juice swimming inside, he realized...

An ominous feeling crept into my mind.

"Is this thing really edible?" Chen Feng asked doubtfully.

Bai Fei looked at Chen Feng, but only smiled gently without offering any explanation.

Just as Chen Feng mustered up his courage to taste the delicious fruit Bai Fei had mentioned,

Bai Fei took the "Honey Dew Crystal Fruit" directly from Chen Feng's hand and put it back into the potted plant on the corridor door.

"Hahaha! I was just kidding you," Bai Fei laughed.

Chen Feng was stunned: "What the heck? You actually lied to me."

Bai Fei: "Who told you to leave me hanging here all day and not even talk to me?"

Chen Feng: "You didn't even talk to me."

Bai Fei: "I'm the Zerg Queen, and it would be beneath me for me to initiate conversation with you..."

Chen Feng: "Damn, why do I feel like I've become your contractor now..."

Bai Fei: "That won't do, you still have to help me."

Chen Feng: "Hmph."

Bai Fei: "Haha, okay~ Next up are the restaurants where I usually eat delicious food."

Chen Feng: "A restaurant?"

Bai Fei stopped being mischievous and instead opened the wooden door with three potted plants hanging on it.

The scenery before them suddenly changed.

Unlike the cold, sticky atmosphere typical of Zerg nests, this place, made entirely of metal, exudes a sense of order and elegance befitting human civilization.

The restaurant space is small, only about ten square meters.

The walls are polished to a smooth, milky-white metal panel, with soft strips of light like the afterglow of the setting sun, making the whole room warm and cozy.

In the center of the restaurant stands a long table with a matte finish and rounded, smooth edges. On either side is a high-backed chair with fine silver-gray cushions, which looks extremely comfortable.

Meanwhile, two slender Zerg hunters stood with their heads bowed beside the table on the side of the restaurant.

They shed their light armor plates worn during combat, and slender knuckles evolved at the ends of their limbs. After bowing to Bai Fei and Chen Feng, they quietly retreated to the side and resumed slicing the giant beast meat and vegetables.

There was not a trace of the ferocity seen on the battlefield.

"This restaurant is designed in the style of the human race, and it's also a gift I'm giving to you, senior." Bai Fei smiled and gestured for Chen Feng to take a seat.

Chen Feng was stunned.

His gaze immediately swept over every detail of the entire restaurant.

The milky white wall panels were indeed made of composite boards, without any of the sticky texture typical of Zerg nests.

The artificial light strips embedded in the composite panels were perfectly adjusted, and even the height and proportions of the tables and chairs were designed according to the human physique.

It doesn't seem like the style a Zerg Queen would like.

"You actually went to the trouble of getting this done?"

"Anyway, there are plenty of empty cabins in the warship, so converting one won't be a problem. Besides, I've already made an agreement with those underground humans to design the best dining room for me, and in return, I'll give them ten top-grade behemoth cores."

"Ten behemoth cores?"

"Yes, I didn't let any of the remaining ones in the Giant Beast Forest go either," Bai Fei explained earnestly.
