The world enters the fungal world

Seeing Li Yu examining her injuries, Lin Muying gently rolled up her right sleeve, revealing her arm.

Li Yu looked at her right arm, which had been bitten and was now white and tender, and indeed there were no scars left.

"You're right, my injuries have healed, and there's not even a trace left," Lin Muying whispered.

Li Yu was awakened by a nightmare, but Zhou Xigang and Qian Lili were fast asleep and were not awakened by Li Yu's voice. Lin Muying lowered her voice, afraid of waking them.

Li Yu remembered that Qian Lili had been on night watch before, and Lin Muying must have taken her place after she woke up.

Li Yu picked up a white jade mushroom and handed it to her.

A look of struggle appeared on Lin Muying's face.

She would never normally eat mushrooms raw, but now she began to feel an intense thirst that was almost unbearable.

She remembered that she had gone an entire day without eating in order to lose weight, but she had never felt this hungry. But for some reason, the feeling of hunger and thirst was too strong today.

"Trust me and I'll eat it... nothing will happen, or even if something does happen, how bad can it be?" Li Yu smiled wryly and tossed the white jade mushroom in his hand to her. Whether she ate it or not was up to her.

Seeing the obvious struggle on Lin Muying's face, Li Yu understood that she was now feeling intense hunger, just like he had before—a hunger that ordinary people could not endure.

Li Yu didn't quite understand before, but now he does. This unbearable, intense hunger is "it" inside his body making them eat mushrooms.

This could be because eating these mushrooms could increase their strength, or perhaps the mushrooms they ate provided the nutrients they needed.

Lin Muying looked at the mushrooms tossed into her hand, and driven by an intense thirst, she finally couldn't resist anymore.

Even so, she couldn't resist eating it, but she still ate it very politely, swallowing it slowly in small bites. Surprisingly, the raw mushrooms didn't taste as bad as she had imagined; instead, they had a subtle fragrance.

Li Yu had already wolfed down the mushrooms, eating them one after another. He quickly devoured most of the remaining dozen or so mushrooms, only stopping when he felt his stomach was too full to eat anymore. He then discovered that of the twenty or thirty mushrooms he had picked the night before, only two remained.

Seeing that Lin Muying had just finished eating the mushrooms he had thrown to her, he handed her the two remaining mushrooms that she couldn't finish.

This time she didn't refuse, but accepted it.

"I can't believe we finished eating so quickly. Looks like I'll have to go out and pick some more mushrooms..." Li Yu murmured to himself.

These white jade mushrooms not only fill their stomachs but also quench their thirst. With these mushrooms, at least for the time being, they don't have to worry about food and drink.

Zhou Xigang woke up soon after, and the first thing he did was to check the injury on his right leg.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "My God, it's completely healed! There's not even a scar left! And it's only been half a day! Unbelievable, absolutely incredible!"

He excitedly got up as he spoke, looking at Li Yu and Lin Muying with a mix of excitement and agitation, saying, "Look, the injury on my right leg is completely healed. We've really evolved; we're not ordinary humans anymore."

Qian Lili, who had only slept for a short while, was woken up by his voice. She barely opened her eyes and mumbled something.

"Zhou Xigang, you're too noisy." She looked annoyed.

Last night, all three of them were asleep, but she had stayed up most of the night. She had finally fallen asleep, but Zhou Xigang woke her up.

Zhou Xigang chuckled, then suddenly rubbed his stomach and said, "I'm starving, Li Yu, do you have any more mushrooms?"

He suddenly felt an intense, unbearable hunger; he even wanted to eat mushrooms.

Li Yu glanced at Lin Muying, who had just eaten the last two mushrooms.

"We've finished eating, but there's still quite a bit left over there." Li Yu pointed out onto the balcony and said, "There was a large patch of these mushrooms next to the car in front of the supermarket."

Zhou Xigang, feeling quite hungry and thirsty, asked, "Shall we go pick some now?"

Qian Lili, who had been lying on the sofa, stood up and asked, "Shall we go out to pick mushrooms now?"

Given her personality, she certainly wouldn't dare to take the risk, but now, like Zhou Xigang, she felt an unbearable hunger and thirst within her, and even developed a strong craving for the white jade mushrooms that Li Yu had eaten before.

She didn't understand why she wanted to eat that kind of mushroom so much.

In addition, she had just secretly checked her chest, and the large chunk of flesh that had been bitten off had mostly healed.

Because of the severity of her injury, it had not fully healed, but the astonishing speed of healing surprised and delighted her. She estimated that it would be completely healed in less than half a day, which was another reason why she became bolder.

If such a serious injury can heal so quickly, what is there to be afraid of?

Lin Muying had just eaten three mushrooms, which slightly reduced her hunger and thirst, but she was still somewhat unsatisfied. At this moment, she licked her lips, cleaning the little bit of mushroom juice that had just gotten on the corner of her mouth.

Li Yu had just finished eating and didn't care much for now, but seeing the three of them looking so eager, he nodded slightly. He had personally experienced that intense thirst that arose in the body was unbearable for a normal person.

Zhou Xigang and the others are now infected because of their injuries. The substances inside their bodies are making them want to eat mushrooms, which is something they cannot endure on their own.

"Okay, let's go pick some mushrooms then, but it's not safe there, we have to be careful."

As Li Yu spoke, he stood up with the crowbar in his hand. He had just eaten his fill of mushrooms and felt warm all over his body. This feeling spread from his stomach to his limbs and bones, making him feel indescribably comfortable.

Perhaps it was because of a nap, or perhaps it was because he ate so many mushrooms, but Li Yu felt full of energy and had inexhaustible strength.

Zhou Xigang nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course, fortunately, last night we saw those three lizards dragging the corpse away. If we move quietly and don't make too much noise, and come back quickly, we should be fine."

He looked at Qian Lili and couldn't help but say, "Qian Lili, how about we switch weapons? You rarely use that claw hammer anyway."

The fire axe he found was too short, less than 30 centimeters, and not very useful against monsters like lizards. Qian Lili only knew how to run away when she saw monsters, and she never used the claw hammer she was holding. It would be better to give it to him.

Actually, what he really wanted to exchange was Lin Muying's fire axe. This fire axe was eighty centimeters long and its lethality was no less than Li Yu's fire crowbar. However, Lin Muying had cooperated with Li Yu to injure that parasitic monster yesterday and performed better than him, so he was too embarrassed to ask.

Upon hearing Zhou Xigang's words, Qian Lili immediately hugged the claw hammer tightly and said nervously, "That won't do, it's my life-saving weapon."
