When the apocalypse comes, everyone else is killing zombies while I grow peas on the ocean floor.
After the Great Flood, 63 percent of the world's land sank beneath the waves, and the deep sea became humanity's final graveyard. Pang Tong was trapped in a shelter 125 meters below the surface, so hungry he was chewing the walls, when a voice suddenly sounded in his mind:
Plants vs. Zombies System successfully bound. Host, you can grow plants anywhere, including underwater.
From then on, Peashooter Jellyfish pierced through schools of mutated fish, Wall-nut Coral formed an underwater Great Wall, Ice-shroom froze entire stretches of ocean, and Cherry Bomb Sea Urchins struck with lethal force.
While others searched for weapons, he searched for seeds. While others fought wars, he built a farm. While others battled the villains to the death, he grew an entire deep-sea federation.
He has just one principle for surviving the seven-year apocalypse:
If you can stay hidden, never go out and fight.
Keep your head down until the end, and you'll have everything.
Pang Tong put the fragments into the storage net, turned around and walked back to the shelter.
On the sonar screen, the signals of the retreating larvae stopped five hundred meters away.
They didn't go far.
They are waiting.
And deep in the rift valley, the eye symbol engraved on the fragment slowly lit up in the darkness.
Not reflective.
It lit up on its own.
Like that eye, opened a slit from the deepest part of the ocean floor.
Pang Tong stared at the getting closer signal on the sonar screen, his palms sweating slightly. Is it a rescue? Or an enemy? The depth of the sea is 125 meters, who will come to find him?
The pea jellyfish floated silently on the culture tank, its green tentacles trembling slightly, as if to say——
Are you ready to fight, Commander?
