Chapter 95 The "Guest" is Here

This acid value surprised Youxi a little. After all, in her native world, the lowest pH value is 0, and negative pH values ​​only exist in theory. But it is obvious that this world has turned theoretical values ​​into real data.

Such data sounds scary. Even though she is staying in a safe villa that has been renovated, she still feels a sense of crisis when watching the news.

From the perspective of the drone flying low, all cars, billboards, solar street lights, and automatic cleaning machines on the road that are exposed outside the building...are all severely corroded.

The car body was deformed, the roof was pitted, the paint was corroded, and the paint dripped like tears left by metal.

There were not many green plants in this city originally, and now most of the flowers, plants and trees are shriveled and charred, as if they were burned by fire.

Because it is a super-heavy industrial city, like many other cities in the Flower Country, many buildings here have adopted improved materials in the early construction period, which are more corrosion-resistant. Even if they are corroded by acid rain for a long time, they are not so easy to rust and decay.

But they probably never thought that one day, the city would have rain with such terrible acidity. The steel and iron bones that make up this city are like ice and snow, melting bit by bit.

Many buildings had half of their roofs and walls destroyed. People hid in the basement and center of the buildings. Even if the acid rain had stopped long ago, they dared not approach the walls, doors, or windows, let alone come out.

Because the air outside was filled with a lot of acidic gases, it would cause a strong burning sensation when inhaled into the lungs.

People who had once paid attention to air pollution and acid rain took out their spare protective equipment and put them on. These items that they had just bought and thought were at the bottom of the box now became their life-saving straw.

They hurriedly packed their luggage and items, preparing to flee the city.

But this was only a very small part of the population.

Most people were unprepared and faced this apocalyptic acid rain head-on.

The hospital was filled with wailing and crying patients, suffering from severe pain. The pharmacy did not have enough medicine, and the hospital did not have enough staff. Many people lay in the hospital lobby, groaning and crying in pain, and then died...

The shots that the drone did not capture were all taken by the people themselves and uploaded to the Internet.

Seeing this scene that was like hell on earth, the people who were originally lying in the Fancheng Hospital complaining and cursing became quiet. The excessive fear made them lose the energy to curse the factories that produced waste gas and polluted the environment. In

the next two days, heavy acid rain occurred frequently in countries all over the planet. The weather forecast had never been so wrong before, and almost every heavy acid rain caught people off guard.

Doomsday talk appeared everywhere on the Internet, and there was a panic atmosphere everywhere.

On the third day after the acid rain fell, some of the people in Fancheng who were not injured went to the largest factory area in the suburbs to protest and demanded that it be shut down and stop polluting the world.

The people who held up signs to protest and gathered outside the factory area and refused to leave did not know that in this factory area, the two factories that were working non-stop around the clock were producing nano-ceramic alloys.

**

On TV, most of the protesters still looked like students. They were probably afraid of sudden acid rain, so they were all dressed very seriously, wearing masks and the same T-shirts on the outside, with similar words printed on them, such as: Stop harming our planet, stop releasing poisonous gas, etc.

There were quite a lot of protesters. Some of them kept shouting the same slogans, while others held protest signs and stood silently in the line.

The camera turned, and Youxi saw a familiar face in the picture. Although the other party was wearing a mask, the mole at the end of the eye was very recognizable. That was Bai Yu. She actually ran to the demonstration team?

She is a smart person and knows how to protect herself. Why would she go to the factory area to demonstrate under such circumstances? Although there has been no acid rain in Fancheng since that day, anyone who is a little cautious will not expose themselves in such an unclear situation.

Youxi carefully identified and found that not only Bai Yu, but many people from their school were there. The man next to her was Cheng Yuan, and there were quite a few people on the other side, all of whom seemed to have been to her villa before

. However, compared to the indignation of Cheng Yuan and some of his classmates, Bai Yu's emotions were much more reserved. Although she held a protest sign in her hand, she stood there woodenly the whole time, and her reluctance could be felt through the camera.

You Xi took a cup of freshly brewed coffee while reading the news. The island kitchen was connected to the living room, and through the windows of the living room, you could see the burnt yellow courtyard outside.

The acid rain that day flattened the few green plants in Fancheng. Now the whole city was gray, with only high-rise buildings with various rust marks left.

When this villa area was first built, relatively corrosion-resistant materials were selected. Whether it is light acid rain or heavy acid rain, it is not easy to be corroded. But this acid rain has exceeded people's normal cognitive range.

The villa area naturally did not withstand it. Although the buildings did not collapse, they all had varying degrees of corrosion and leakage. This made everyone feel very insecure. If there was another acid rain like the last time, they estimated that they would have nowhere to hide.

So in the past two days, almost everyone was busy looking for materials to repair the house. Under such circumstances, this ugly villa in Youxi without even a trace of corrosion naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Of course, in the early days of the apocalypse, the social order was normal, and she was in a high-end residential area full of rich people, so the bloody plot of someone taking a fancy to her villa and wanting to occupy it was naturally impossible to happen.

At most, when someone first discovered it, they would knock on her door and ask what the material outside was.

After all, nano-ceramic alloy had just been developed not long ago, and it was not originally intended to be used as a building material, but a material produced and sold by the laboratory. Ordinary people would not know it unless they specifically checked it, or they had heard of it but had never seen it, so they didn't know that such an ugly material was actually...

The first person to knock on the door was Feng Xu. He was burned while saving people in the acid rain that day, and he inhaled a lot of acidic gas, so his throat was swollen and he kept coughing.

So that day, after he went to the hospital with the ambulance, he stayed in the hospital for observation at the request of his parents, and returned to the villa the next afternoon when he was not seriously injured.

He stood in front of his villa, which was riddled with holes, and saw Youxi's villa, which he had ridiculed before. He immediately found the difference between the two. He didn't want to ask because of his face, but thinking about the pain and pain of acid rain splashing on his body, he still came with a thick face.

Unfortunately, when he visited her house that day, Youxi was not there.

**

That day, she took advantage of the situation and continued to stock up. The news that acid rain destroyed farmland and breeding areas made her heart ring with alarm bells.

Although this world is technologically advanced, there are various ways to improve the soil after being attacked by strong acid, and various materials with stronger acid resistance can be used to make new protective covers in the later stage, but this is a big project after all.

Just one acid rain almost caused the medical system of Fancheng to collapse. If acid rains continue one after another and social order begins to be in chaos, no matter how powerful the technology is, it will not be able to keep up with the speed of the world being damaged.

Once the land cannot be saved, food production will decrease or even cease to exist. Although she will only stay for three months, this body will have to continue living after she leaves, so she wants to stock up on more staple foods and long-lasting foods to try to keep this body alive longer.

The method of stockpiling was the same as last time. I found a parking lot with few people and bought the trucks with the goods.

The first truck was full of food, rice, flour, oil, sundries, dry goods, vacuum food, a kind of improved military rations canned food that tasted good and could be stored at room temperature for fifty years, dehydrated vegetables and fruits, a kind of meal replacement powder that could supplement the human body's daily nutritional needs...

This time, the stockpiling was mainly based on storage time, and the taste was temporarily put aside. After all, after she left, this body had no space, so she could only keep some frozen meat and the like in the freezer, which could be stored for more than a year at most.

In the past two days, people in Fancheng have been buying food supplies. The supermarket was originally unwilling to distribute this batch of supplies to her until she tripled the price...

But Youxi still felt lucky to be able to buy it. She acted early. If she was a few days later, it would be useless to pay five times the price. It's not that others are unwilling to sell, but after everyone rushes to buy, the supplies will be temporarily out of stock.

The second truck of supplies was for her own storage. She bought all kinds of advanced electrical appliances and mechanical equipment in this world. She looked up the varieties and functions on the Internet. If she thought they were good, she would directly place an order. She bought two of the same products, keeping one as a backup.

Because the star coins from random missions are easier to earn, she will definitely be able to upgrade the Star House for the second time this time, and the Star House Warehouse will also be upgraded accordingly.

The last time it was upgraded, the Star House Warehouse did not get bigger, but it had two more functional spaces, and the Star House itself got bigger.

So this time, she felt that one of the Star House Warehouse and the Star House would definitely be expanded, so even if she brought back a full warehouse of supplies, she should be able to put them in.

The main reason was that this was her first time traveling to a world with slightly higher technology, and she unconsciously wanted to stock up on many things.

Especially the metal ice, she felt that she still had too little stock. After

all, she couldn't come back to replenish it after leaving, so she called to reorder, but many wealthy people were also placing large orders to stock up, and the other party would not reply to her in two days. Afterwards, Youxi went to the Xingwu warehouse to fill two more trucks of supplies and drove back to the villa. Before the car entered the garage, she saw Feng Xu, who was trapped in the power grid on the lawn, talking to two security guards with a constipated look on his face.

The invisible alarm device in her yard was turned on 24 hours a day - except for the short time she went in and out.

She just didn't expect Feng Xu to be so stupid. After triggering the warning for the first time, he didn't leave, and trapped himself on her lawn.

The security guards were getting annoyed by Feng Xu, so they could only cancel the alarm notification, but they were not the owner, so there was no way they could cancel the power grid to let him out. So, Feng Xu, who had just been discharged from the hospital, was trapped in her yard for three hours. As

soon as Feng Xu saw her car, his eyes were full of anger, and he cursed her in a series of ways: "Why didn't you answer the phone! I called you hundreds of times, but why couldn't I get through! XXXXX!" You Xi got

out of the car with a cup of milk tea, and said "oh" with a wooden expression, then looked at the phone on her wrist and thought about it.

Before going to the parking lot to collect the goods, she also went to the foot of the mountain for a walk. Although many stores were closed, there were still many open. She spent a lot of money in those open stores, using the old method of ordering, taking away, putting it in the car and storing it in the warehouse before going to the next store.

Later, because the truck delivering the supplies called to say that it might be a little later for some reasons, she bought a little more...

She saw Feng Xu's call, but she was too lazy to answer it.

He cursed in an emotional way, but when he saw You Xi's expressionless face and the way she drank milk tea, it was like a deflated ball, and he felt it was super boring. In the end, he could only hold back his anger and let her quickly turn off the power grid.

The alarm device was already connected to her phone. She swung the phone and clicked a few times, and the power grid that trapped Feng Xu disappeared.

He immediately rushed to his villa at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, shouting as he ran: "Wait for you, Youxi! I'll remember you! I'll come to settle with you after I... finish!"

Youxi:...? ?

The two security guards explained with strange expressions: "Mr. Feng started to have a stomachache two hours ago. It seems that he ate something before, so..."

Youxi couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of milk tea.

Oh, so she just saw that he looked constipated because he was really holding it in...

She learned from the security guard the real reason why Feng Xu came to see her. Later, other owners came to ask about it. She was afraid of trouble, so she finally put up a sign outside the lawn and wrote the name and function of the nano-ceramic alloy and the phone number of the decoration company.

After that, many residents in the villa area began to renovate their villas. This time, no one considered the aesthetics. The only factor considered was safety.

In addition to her, many other people in Fancheng naturally knew about this new material. At this time, no one considered the price. A large number of orders led to the inventory being cleared, so the factory area would keep working overtime to catch up.

**

After Youxi finished breakfast and was about to do some physical training, she received a call from the security office at the gate of the villa, saying that someone was looking for her.

There are quite a few people looking for her. According to the security guard’s description, there are about ten people in total, all of whom are guests who have visited her villa before.

Some people come so many times that even the security guards remember their faces. In their minds, these are normal guests and they must notify her.

You Xi saw the situation at the gate through the tablet hanging on the wall. Among the ten people, there was a person wearing a mask and hiding in the crowd and standing at the back.

She saw the familiar mole at the corner of the other person’s eye. Who else could it be but Bai Yu?

You Xi was about to ask the security guard to drive them away directly, but suddenly she noticed the movement of the system.

You Xi said in her heart: If you now give me a random task to let me welcome these people in, I will choose to die.

[……]

You Xi: I have a bottom line too, okay? Not to mention letting them in, I'm too lazy to even teach them a lesson or even look at them -

before she could finish her thoughts, she heard the neutral system sound.

[Then the task has been refreshed: Go to the gate of the villa area and slap your former classmate in the face. (Complete to get 50 star coins, do you want to accept? Number of tasks that have been rejected: 0)]

Youxi: ... ! ! !

50 star coins! ?

There is such a good thing!

Youxi: Take it! Go now!
