Enemies Are All Nourishment for My Fungi-Chapter 158 She is Suitable for Hunting Alone (2)

She never expected to stay in the Secret Realm for such a long time; the vegetables and fruits she had prepared were not enough, so she could only grow her own in the planting pots.

It was a good opportunity to practice disguising herself as a Wood Element Awakener, accelerating the growth of seeds and plants.

Truth be told, her fungus was really powerful. After several initial failures, once she figured out the reasons, everything went smoothly. Whatever she wanted to eat, she planted, and she could eat it right after planting.

Ye Nai was now very confident that she could absolutely pass as an Awakener skilled in growing vegetables when walking outside.

Because the reason for the failures was that each vegetable’s root system required a different microbial community.

In the environment of the Secret Realm, she filled the planting pots with purchased planting soil, buried the base fertilizer and seeds, and then introduced superpower spores to accelerate their growth.

Initially, she used too much force, causing the plants to grow excessively like weeds and taste not good at all.

Then she gradually began to reduce the force she applied, and leafy vegetables finally started to look the part, but vegetables that produced pods, fruits, potatoes, and the like still were not successful.

Since growth was entirely stimulated by superpower, the seeds didn’t need to be in season; if they didn’t grow, it was definitely a matter of not controlling the power properly.

So she continued to experiment, over and over, succeeding with some plants and continuing to fail with others.

If she failed, she just kept trying.

Luckily, the seeds she bought were in large packets, or they wouldn’t have withstood her experiments.

A packet of seeds weighed two ounces or contained a thousand grains. The sellers assumed the buyer had rich experience in both potting and field planting, which just so happened to work out perfectly for Ye Nai.

Plants fear fungal infections, and vegetables fear fungal diseases even more, but under Ye Nai’s control, such diseases were non-existent. The fungus would only continuously provide nutrients to the vegetables, promoting their growth into delicious vegetables.

Pest infestations were even less likely with the fungus’ defense—no insect would dare come nibble on her crops.

After successfully growing potted vegetables in the Secret Realm environment, Ye Nai naturally set her sights on the fertile land that was everywhere here, and it would be such a waste not to use it for farming.

The common knowledge that seeds from Blue Star wouldn’t germinate in the Secret Realm was dismissed after Ye Nai personally put it to the test.

In her hands, they could germinate and grow.

But the entire process required the participation of her fungus, and the soil where she had planted one crop had to rest, waiting for the consumed fungus to recover.

Which meant practicing crop rotation.

This performance also showed her a feasible direction: as long as she waited for her fungus to spread throughout the entire Secret Realm, she could start to plan out farmland.

Having solved the vegetable issue and being able to sustain herself, Ye Nai enjoyed her time in the Secret Realm even more, reluctant to leave.

It wasn’t until she was about to return that she thought of leaving some protection for these mutant beasts.

She released a large quantity of spores onto these unfamiliar mutant beasts, turning them into walking spore spreaders. Wherever they went, they carried her spores, quickly constructing a defensive wall to protect them in case other Hunters delved deep into the Secret Realm and discovered their tracks.

She could hunt only so many game animals, but if it was a team of Hunters hunting in groups, even a population of tens of thousands wouldn’t be able to withstand it—they could be hunted to the point where they would need to be protected as endangered species.

This trip was very fruitful, and Ye Nai returned home satisfied.

Guided by the direction of the fungus, Ye Nai rode her motorcycle through the wilderness for three to four days. Only when she saw that she was leaving the territories of the unfamiliar mutant beast populations and the Camel-hump Deer, did she bring out the tractor and trailer, releasing the Camel-hump Deer that had been asleep for the past few days.

Traveling with a nursing fawn was quite troublesome, as the doe slept heavily and ate little along the way, leaving her with no milk to feed her fawn. If the fawn slept heavily and didn’t get enough milk, it was very likely to die on the way. Fortunately, they were supported by the strong life force of the spores; otherwise, Ye Nai would never dare to take such a risk.

This risky journey was to leave traces of hardship behind. A young buck was not a concern, but a newly birthed, weak doe and fawn made it clear how difficult this trip was for her.

After all, despite the hardship, she was determined to ensure their survival before undertaking such a task. For anyone else, it would be reckless, as they would not be able to keep a less-than-a-month-old fawn alive.

After driving the tractor for two days and camping at dusk, while feeding the deer hay, water, and milk on the trailer, the surrounding spores and fungus sent back alerts that a battle team was quickly approaching her.

Ye Nai immediately got out of the vehicle to fasten all the trailer’s sideboards, then hopped back into the trailer, using it as a cover while waiting for the battle team to see what they were up to.

In just three to five minutes, through the telescope, she indeed saw a battle team heading her way.

In such an open plain, it didn’t make sense to come towards her when they could go anywhere; seeing people here and still approaching, Ye Nai didn’t understand. So, she released spores into the bodies of all of those in the battle team to directly probe their physiological responses.

From their breathing, heartbeat, and emotions, they all seemed quite unhappy, as if they had lost out on this trip and needed to recoup some losses.

Ye Nai didn’t move, letting them come closer, just in case it was a misunderstanding, for she didn’t want to kill the innocent indiscriminately.

The battle team headed straight for Ye Nai’s camp without deviation. Once they were close enough to see the full view of her small camp, Ye Nai suddenly noticed that all of their physiological reactions switched from dejection to excitement.

Then, she saw gun barrels sticking out from the windows of the two leading assault vehicles, firing at the trailer.

The gunfire lasted for more than a dozen shots before falling silent, and the people inside the vehicles fell into a coma.

The out-of-control off-road vehicles, one after another, charged right up to the trailer, only to be captured by Ye Nai and taken into the Space all at once.

Taking them into the Space was to forcefully stop the vehicles; then she would take them out again and drag the people from inside the vehicles.

After a headcount, there were nine vehicles with twenty-two people, all with out-of-province license plates—six off-roaders and three 6.8 meter refrigerated trucks with their refrigeration on, holding hunted game and uneaten vegetables and fruits in the cargo area.

The equipment was quite good, but the haul was rather pitiful; all the game put together couldn’t fill one refrigerated truck. Judging by the scale of the entire team, this trip was definitely a loss.

It’s normal to want to compensate for a loss, but if you pick the wrong target, you have only yourself to blame.

Ye Nai paralyzed them from the neck down, then woke them up.

"Handsome guys, tell me, who is your team leader?"

Ye Nai asked directly, but the people sprawled on the ground were only panicked that they couldn’t move; no one paid any attention to her.

She was not angered and simply offered them a painful package deal, starting with headaches, moving down from the neck to the viscera, and then to the legs and soles of the feet.

The pain left them teary-eyed and helplessly howling.

After enjoying the ordeal, they all lay limp as if they had all their bones broken. Ye Nai repeated the question.

"Handsome guys, tell me, who is your team leader?"

The people on the ground didn’t dare to ignore her any longer. They looked around quickly and swiftly pointed out the team leader lying in the middle.

Before the team leader himself could speak, his subordinates had already sold him out.

Ye Nai manipulated the fungus in their bodies to control their vocal cords, preventing them from speaking. Then she calmly walked between the two men and squatted down beside the one identified as the team leader.
