Before this, Chu Sheng had never known Old Man Li's Sequence cost, but he had guessed it must be steep.
Now that he knew what it was, Chu Sheng could only call it child's play.
The supernatural plants he grew were unstable?
Then approach it from another angle.
Why not just plant a ring of them around the settlement?
If your Sequence cost doesn't trigger, I'll treat them as normal plants. If it does, even better. They'll become defenses.
Old Man Li was now Sequence Eight. At his current Sequence level, any plant that mutated would have Sequence Nine combat strength.
Chu Sheng had never seen these plants' true combat strength, but that didn't matter.
As long as they had Sequence Nine combat strength, even the weakest kind would be perfectly useful with enough numbers.
You think one plant with Sequence Nine combat strength is trash? Then what about a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand?
Higher Sequence levels could crush lower ones, but there was another saying: enough ants could bite an elephant to death.
As for Old Man Li saying that once mutations began, every plant would mutate, Chu Sheng was even less concerned.
Did he think Youming was just for show?
Once they mutated, a few attacks would wipe them all out.
If Youming couldn't handle it, Zhu Qing, An Xi, and Qingqing were still there.
One swing of Zhu Qing's staff could sweep away a whole swath, and An Xi and Qingqing could do the same.
The dead plants could even serve as nutrients for the nether soil.
The only ones who might be in any danger were the survivors working the fields.
Those survivors might encounter a plant mutation while farming and die on the spot.
But Chu Sheng didn't consider that much of
