Chapter 50: Super Mold 14
Little You next door: Oh my god, Uncle Chu, you passed both rounds of the game!
You Che looked at the message he received and couldn’t help but exclaim that Uncle Chu will always be Uncle Chu.
Little You next door: Then you must have at least 10 points! Did you get into any of the top rankings?
Uncle Chu: I only have a few points, very few.
Chu Yian didn’t casually brag about her high ranking; she only vaguely mentioned it.
But even if she was the last to clear it, clearing the game signifies powerful strength.
Strength = a strong backer.
Little You next door: Uncle Chu, you’re still sharp as ever. Could you tell me about your heroic deeds to help me gain some experience?
Experience?
She was lucky in the first two rounds, encountering a big shot like Teacher Lu. Although she wasn’t completely carried in the later stages, he did help her take many shortcuts.
Uncle Chu: Young man, let’s not rush into that. First, tell me about your car ability.
Chu Yian was very curious about new players’ abilities.
If he could conjure cars, could he also conjure gasoline? If it was unlimited gasoline, then his ability would be incredibly useful, making him very worthwhile to bring along.
Little You next door: The Vehicle Manufacturer actually just refreshes a brand new car every two days.
Uncle Chu: Does the car always come with fuel?
This was her most pressing question.
Little You next door: Don’t worry about that, Uncle Chu. Each refreshed car is at its optimal performance and in its best condition.
You Che was right; every car produced was perfect. However, he intentionally or unintentionally concealed the fact that the Vehicle Manufacturer couldn’t produce a car every time, because he didn’t want Uncle Chu to feel his ability was useless.
Little You next door: Uncle Chu, what did you draw when the game started?
Since he had told her, Chu Yian wasn’t the type to be stingy.
Uncle Chu: I drew a portable box that can change in size, making it more convenient for storing things. But it’s only one cubic meter in size.
However, Chu Yian, like You Che, didn’t tell the whole truth.
For example, she didn’t reveal a single word about the box being pure gold, capable of killing someone if thrown, or the treasure box’s ability to create something out of nothing every three days.
But even so, it was enough to excite You Che.
Holy crap! Isn’t that a portable space in disguise?
Uncle Chu has such good luck, to be able to draw such a useful treasure. No wonder he cleared the game.
The two had a less-than-candid heart-to-heart, gradually establishing their identities as allies. Chu Yian glanced at the badge in her hand, then sent a photo of it to You Che.
You Che: Uncle Chu, what did you send?
Uncle Chu: This is a clue to the Survival Zone I found. Pay attention to the pattern on it and search online for cities that have similar patterns or emblems.
Chu Yian actually didn’t want to tell him about the Survival Zone so early, but the impending power outage made her tense. If the power went out and the internet went down, finding the Survival Zone’s location based on the badge’s pattern would become almost impossible.
So she had to get You Che involved; one more person meant one more effort.
“Holy crap, holy crap!”
You Che looked at the message from Chu Yian, so excited that he cursed several times in his room.
This Uncle Chu is truly incredibly awesome! What kind of divine Uncle Chu is this!
Chu Yian didn’t have many thoughts at the moment; she just wanted to figure out the Safe Zone as soon as possible. She also took pictures of what she had already discovered and sent them to him, saying, “If you find anything new, communicate it via phone.”
Day 10 of the game.
Although two people were now searching for information, progress was still slow.
At this point, many people had reached the end of their resources. Hunger and anarchy caused people to riot. Robberies began to occur in this world, even more severely than in the previous game.
Even staying at home every day, they had seen at least three robberies through their windows.
Moreover, the Residential Area no longer had property management, nor any security guards.
As far as she knew, the people in the Residential Area were quite wealthy and had hoarded a large amount of food before the crisis. These provisions were enough to sustain them for a long time, but they also made them more coveted than other places.
After all, they were ‘fat targets’.
Almost every household in this Residential Area locked their doors and windows, not daring to go out. Even residents in high-rise apartments had proactively disabled the elevators, and no one cared about high-rise littering anymore, directly throwing trash out of windows.
Chu Yian was also one of those without morals.
If the house wasn’t cleaned, mold would quickly take over toilets, kitchens, and other areas, then spread to the living room and bedrooms. Disposing of cleaned-up trash outside would waste energy and time, and it was also too dangerous. She truly had no other choice.
After cleaning the house, she sat down.
It was time for the three-day box opening.
Chu Yian took out the box, silently prayed in her heart that she would draw something useful, and then reached her hand inside.
A set of modern crossbows.
Note: Items will be retrieved after the game ends.
Good Item’s Inner Voice: One bow and 10 crossbow bolts. The treasure box is not always completely random; this is an occasional friendly gift, please be grateful.
“Thank you!”
Chu Yian looked at the explanation above, solemnly and sacredly placing the treasure box on the table and bowing, “A few days ago, I met a player whose ability was to conjure a car every two days. Although cars are important, I’m not envious at all!
Because I know I have the treasure box, and my good fortune is still to come!”
Chu Yian sincerely complimented the treasure box from the bottom of her heart, and then eagerly began to study the crossbow.
The crossbow wasn’t large, only the length of a bottle of mineral water. It was entirely black and had some weight when held. The crossbow bolts were all in a quiver that could be hung on her chest or carried on her back.
She loaded a crossbow bolt and fired an arrow at her bedroom door.
The crossbow bolt flew out with a whoosh, directly piercing through the bedroom door!
The power was quite immense; she had to exert a lot of effort to pull the crossbow bolt out of the door. Chu Yian felt that if she practiced more, she might be able to directly aim for headshots.
After testing the crossbow, she saw several messages from You Che on her phone.
Little You next door: Uncle Chu, I have a major discovery!
Little You next door: I found the suspected building outline on the badge! It’s a place in China called Kui Mountain Research Institute, located on a plateau in X City!
Little You next door: I checked the news related to this institute, and the past two days they’ve been discussing a hypothesis about underground cultivation. Ah ah ah ah ah, we must have really found the Survival Zone!
Even through the phone screen, one could feel how excited he was.
Not to mention him, Chu Yian was also very excited!
However, the content below quickly changed tone.
Little You next door: Uncle Chu, pay attention!! Just now, eight burly men secretly entered our Residential Area!
