Apocalypse: Infinite Supplies System - Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Let’s leave now, shall we
After entering the house, Alex poured a cup of hot tea for Skylar.

“Skylar, did you come over today just to visit me?”

Skylar hesitated, then chuckled awkwardly.

“Why, can’t I come over just to see you…”

Alex smiled without saying a word.

Nothing happens without a reason.

Although it wasn’t quite appropriate coming from him, it suited Skylar perfectly.

Skylar touched his nose and said, “Alex, you’re really something. Indeed, I came today to give you the Starry Grass.”

Just a few days ago, after Skylar left, he gathered all the warriors of the Legion of Glory to collect Starry Grass.

Even other tasks were temporarily put on hold, and everyone was mobilized.

Effort pays off.

In just a few days, they collected quite a bit of Starry Grass.

Even if Alex hadn’t encountered an attack from the Spectrum Squad, Skylar had already planned to bring the Starry Grass to Alex these days.

Alex’s expression brightened.

He hadn’t expected the efficiency of the Legion of Glory to be this fast.

He had thought it would take at least one or two weeks.

Indeed, Skylar, who came from a military background, was efficient.

Skylar took out the Starry Grass and said, “Alex, take a look. Is this the kind of Starry Grass you need?”

Actually, there was only one type of Starry Grass.

But, for safety’s sake, it was still necessary to ask.

Now, he was afraid that Alex would look at it and say they got the wrong thing.

Then he would really vomit blood directly.

Fortunately, such a farce did not happen.

Alex took the Starry Grass, and just at first glance, nodded directly.

“Yes, this is the kind of Starry Grass.”

“Skylar, how much Starry Grass has the Legion of Glory collected?”

Skylar took out a foam box from his backpack and placed it on the coffee table, saying, “This big box, it’s all in here.”

“We’ve tried our best to collect it, but the production of this stuff is really limited, so we could only find this much.”

Alex’s gaze flickered slightly. He stood up, opened the foam box containing the Starry Grass.

“Ten plants in a row, four rows in total, six layers up and down.”

A total of two hundred and forty Starry Grass plants.

This huge number greatly exceeded Alex’s expectations.

“Alex, is it enough?”

Skylar looked at Alex, who remained silent, expressionless, and thought that there might not be enough Starry Grass. He looked a little anxious.

After all, this was a necessity for clearing mutant plants, directly related to the interests of the Legion of Glory.

Alex picked up a Starry Grass plant, weighed it, and said, “It should be barely enough, but you’d better continue collecting. So that we won’t run out of herbicide for too many mutant plants.”

Skylar, who had been kept in the dark, nodded earnestly and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll go back later and let those guys continue collecting. With some time, we can find quite a bit more of this stuff.”

“Then I’ll trouble you, Skylar,” Alex said with a smile.

Skylar laughed heartily.

“What trouble? It’s us bothering you. You’re helping our Legion of Glory eliminate mutant plants.”

Alex touched his nose and coughed.

“So, Skylar, do you want to eradicate the mutant plants now?”

Skylar was taken aback, then ecstatic.

“Of course, the sooner, the better… Um, Alex, are you available now?”

The trouble caused by mutant plants for the Legion of Glory had reached a severe level.

Skylar couldn’t even sleep soundly.

After waiting eagerly for someone like Alex who could completely solve the problem of mutant plants, Skylar naturally wanted it done as soon as possible.

However, he had never dared to urge, fearing to anger Alex.

Alex nodded and said, “Since we already have the Starry Grass, we can naturally make herbicide and eliminate the mutant plants.”

“What are we waiting for?”

Skylar exclaimed excitedly, “Alex, let’s go to the Legion of Glory right now!”

Alex didn’t immediately agree, smiling as he said, “Skylar, don’t be in a hurry. Let me go make the herbicide first.”

“Right, right, we still need to make the herbicide.”

Skylar suddenly realized.

“Alex, you go ahead, don’t mind me.”

“Then Skylar, just wait in the living room for a while. Twenty-Two, remember to serve Skylar some tea.”

Alex got up and left, leaving Skylar and Twenty-Two staring at each other in the living room.

Going upstairs, Alex closed the door.

Mia and Olivia followed upstairs.

As soon as the door was closed, they chuckled and said, “Alex, this time you really fooled Captain Skylar, tricking him and he still praises you.”

Alex raised an eyebrow, saying earnestly, “Why call it tricking? I am indeed helping the Legion of Glory eliminate mutant plants, just charging a bit extra.”

Then, Alex took out the Starry Grass and the special herbicide making blueprint and started working.

[Would you like to make special herbicide?]

[Yes/No]

Alex directly used all the Starry Grass and produced a large amount of special herbicide.

[Special Herbicide × 240]

The whole process took only a few minutes.

But to avoid raising Skylar’s suspicions, Alex deliberately waited for more than ten minutes before leisurely coming downstairs.

Skylar occasionally looked up at the stairs, becoming increasingly impatient.

Finally, Alex appeared again.

Immediately, Skylar stood up excitedly.

Alex smiled and said, “Mission accomplished. I’ve made a dozen bottles of herbicide. Should be enough.”

“Great! Great!”

Skylar laughed heartily, feeling a bit impatient.

“Alex, what are we waiting for? Let’s leave now, shall we?”

Alex nodded.

The two walked out of the villa and sat together in the back seat of the car.

Skylar exclaimed, “Alex, you have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this day!”

Alex smiled faintly.

“Shouldn’t be too long, after all, it’s only been a few days since the mutant plants outbreak.”

Mutant plants, a product of the same period as the destruction of City 22.

Skylar complained about waiting too long, which made Alex feel a bit uneasy.

Skylar scratched his head.

He thought, “If you say that, how can I continue talking to you?”

But he was careless and didn’t feel embarrassed.

“Haha, it feels like forever.”

“If we can eradicate these mutant plants this time, it would truly solve a major problem.”

Alex glanced at Skylar and said lightly, “Skylar, trust me, my herbicide is reliable, you don’t need to worry too much.”

Skylar, whose thoughts were exposed, felt genuinely embarrassed.

He deliberately said those words with some ulterior motives.

After all, he had never seen this so-called herbicide.

He hadn’t even witnessed Alex clearing mutant plants.

He only received intelligence suggesting that Alex had the ability to do so.

But, can mutant plants be really that easily dealt with…

Skylar admitted that he had been too hasty before.

He simply recruited Alex upon learning that he could clear mutant plants.

Now, in hindsight, it seemed a bit reckless.
