"Haha, my earlier decision was indeed correct!"
Inside the Swarm's first Mother Nest in the wilderness, Qin Mu's consciousness laughed heartily.

When the Fungal Carpet spread, it devoured any plants in its path, even insects and small animals.
Therefore, the plants growing on the Fungal Carpet were not ordinary plants, but ones cultivated by the Mother Nest.
These Swarm plants were not much different from ordinary vegetation. Only their underground roots were connected to the Fungal Carpet, through which they delivered the energy produced by photosynthesis to the Mother Nest.
Although the energy gathered by a single tree was limited, the combined energy gathered by every tree within a radius of more than ten miles was no small amount.
This energy was enough to cover the Swarm's daily energy consumption under this Mother Nest's control.
But that was not why Qin Mu was so delighted.
Within the Fungal Carpet surrounding the Mother Nest, part of it differed from the rest of the eerie purple carpet. It was emerald green like moss, a color brimming with vitality.
This patch of emerald-green Fungal Carpet was the reason Qin Mu was so happy.
Over the past half month, Qin Mu had spent most of his time in the laboratories of Jiangnan First Military School.
After throwing himself wholeheartedly into studying biology, Qin Mu's biological knowledge advanced at a remarkable pace.
Having finally received systematic training in bioengineering, he had even used his special status in the laboratory to attempt some simple experiments.
After accumulating the results of those experiments, Qin Mu had continuously tried within the Mother Nest to splice
