Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 724: Drool_2
Chapter 724: Drool_2
With no other choice, Qian Sen had to keep running around with Fang Yuxin and only recently settled down at Hope Base, where he joined the research institute. Unfortunately, the institute was far from satisfactory; it was practically for show. Many research materials were missing, and even many experimental instruments were absent, which left him frustrated and helpless!
Before Fang Yuxin arrived, she had specifically asked Qian Sen, so this time during her search, she didn’t pay attention to the common medicinal plants. Instead, she focused all her energy on the various Mutant Plants, especially those used for medicines.
Thus, when she accidentally discovered a gigantic Mutated Wild Ginseng, she couldn’t help but be thrilled.
Bai Ye didn’t think as much as she did; what he cared more about was whether there were any dangers around. If it was safe, he would let Fang Yuxin take the Mutated Wild Ginseng. He could tell that Fang Yuxin probably wanted to transplant it into space.
He was right. Just after Fang Yuxin checked and found no danger nearby, she was about to approach the Mutated Wild Ginseng. However, the previously still plant suddenly folded its leaves. Seeing that it was not a good sign and worrying it might escape, Fang Yuxin immediately set up a Barrier to trap it in place.
This Mutated Wild Ginseng truly lived up to being a mutant variety. Once it realized it was trapped, its leaves opened once again, and concurrently, the leaves began to change, becoming unusually sharp and tough. It then started wildly beating the Barrier, attempting to break free.
Fang Yuxin watched as it frantically slapped the Barrier with its leaves, faintly sensing a mix of anger and panic. She paused for a moment, then after a slight hesitation, she shot a drop of True Yuan toward the Mutated Wild Ginseng.
The moment the drop of True Yuan hit it, the Mutated Wild Ginseng that was continuously flapping its leaves suddenly stopped. Then, as if it had discovered the benefits of the True Yuan, it stretched out its leaves again and kept leaning toward Fang Yuxin’s direction. Unfortunately, the Barrier that Fang Yuxin had set up was still in place, and it couldn’t break through or approach her.
Upon realizing this, it became frantic again, its behavior resembling that of a child who couldn’t get candy.
Fang Yuxin tried to communicate with it, but sadly the Mutated Wild Ginseng had only a very faint spiritual wisdom and was still in a dazed state. No matter how she tried to communicate, it failed to convey any clear and distinct ideas, only showing a longing for Fang Yuxin’s True Yuan.
Feeling powerless, Fang Yuxin thought for a moment and then released Ah Bao. Ah Bao had long been accustomed to the Qingmu Spiritual Mansion’s abundant Spiritual Energy and comfortable environment; it wasn’t pleased to be summoned: "What do you want with me? Can’t you see I’m busy?" No sooner had it said this than it froze, its small eyes widening as it stared intently at the Mutated Wild Ginseng not far away.
Fang Yuxin glanced at Ah Bao and noticed that it was still as big as before without any change. She couldn’t help but poke it with her finger, saying, "See that? That’s your kin. Help me deal with it."
At her words, Ah Bao immediately turned its head, watching Fang Yuxin with wariness: "What are you trying to do? You’re not thinking of eating it, are you? Let me tell you, don’t even think about it! It has developed spiritual wisdom; I’m taking it home to raise!"
Seeing Ah Bao’s emboldened appearance, Fang Yuxin couldn’t help but remind it: "That’s my territory! But if you can, go on and take it in. I won’t stop you."
Upon hearing this, Ah Bao became ecstatic. It approached the Mutated Wild Ginseng, stroking its chin and sizing it up, mumbling to itself, "How did it grow so big? It couldn’t have eaten hormones, could it?"
Fang Yuxin looked at it, speechless, thinking how could wild ginseng eat any hormones, but before she could speak, she saw Ah Bao suddenly disappear. Panicking subconsciously, she thought Ah Bao had run away on its own. But upon closer inspection, she found that Ah Bao had actually gone underground. Right now, its tiny body was hugging the Mutated Wild Ginseng’s huge and developed root system as if it was communicating with the ginseng.
Initially, the Mutated Wild Ginseng had been panic-stricken by Fang Yuxin’s suddenly imposed Barrier, its nascent spirit flustered. But, sensing the presence of a fellow and elder in Ah Bao, it gradually calmed down, allowing Ah Bao to hold onto its roots without resistance.

Ah Bao: "What’s your name?"
The Mutated Wild Ginseng replied shyly: "Don’t... don’t know..."
Ah Bao patted the Mutated Wild Ginseng’s roots like a senior and continued, "I’m Ah Bao, how about you be called Ah Bei from now on? You can hang out with me from now on, I’ll look out for you! How about letting you enjoy the best of the best with me?"
The Mutated Wild Ginseng: "Okay." What does ’enjoy the best of the best’ mean?
Ah Bao started tempting: "Will you come to my home? It’s really nice there, the Spiritual Energy is especially rich, and you don’t have to worry about being eaten by anyone! You can do whatever you like!"
The Mutated Wild Ginseng: "Really? Is it better than here?" It had been here since its birth, and suddenly leaving made it somewhat hesitant.
Ah Bao boasted proudly: "Of course, you better hurry... Aaaah!" It had been about to show off how nice its home was to its junior when suddenly, a massive figure appeared, looking at it with greedy, malevolent eyes!
Ah Bao was sure that it saw covetousness in those eyes, and in terror, it screamed sharply. (To be continued...
