Apocalypse: Starting by Burning 100 Billion Ghost Currencies

Three years ago, an enigmatic calamity descended, causing the collapse of the monetary system and the rampant suppression of this world by rules with extremely low survivability.

Su Luo, in a...

Chapter 155 Zhao Jinlai's Visit

The capital city of Luoyang is a branch city.

With the help of the system and Xiao Yi, Su Luo materialized the operating system onto his own tablet. Thanks to Shu Dian's generous donation, although his skills were not very reliable, he was able to perfectly materialize the system's control panel this time.

Compared to operating in your mind, tapping on a tablet now feels like playing a hacked game before the apocalypse.

"My little darling sister, I've done everything you asked me to do!"

Su Luo didn't even glance at Xia Ming upon hearing this. Since this guy insisted on coming along, she naturally couldn't waste his labor. It would be perfect to leave the troublemakers who were unhappy with her to that madman Xia Ming.

"Little Ancestor Sister, you're not in Shanshui City right now, aren't you afraid of being used by someone with ulterior motives?"

Just like what happened at the Imperial Capital base before?

Xia Ming didn't say it explicitly, but Su Luo wasn't stupid and naturally understood.

Like what happened at the Imperial Capital base before?

Haha, how could they be the same!

"With Lin Shuyu currently overseeing the cabin, even if there is a large-scale attack, there will be no casualties." It seemed that she was specifically telling Xia Ming this, and she made a special mention of Lin Shuyu.

That day, after the Noah Base was captured, Su Luo entrusted the cleanup of the Noah Base to Lin Shuyu. When she returned to the Noah Base, the entire Noah Base was surrounded by a ball of crimson flames. All the people and monsters inside seemed to have been paused, frozen in place, and time seemed to freeze in an instant.

The entire Noah base was unilaterally frozen by Lin Shuyu; although it appeared to be alive, it was actually dead.

When Su Luo found Lin Shuyu, he was standing alone in front of a heavy coffin with a long string of medals on it, so he knew who was lying inside without even looking.

Su Luo will never forget the look in Lin Shuyu's eyes when he turned around.

The silence was deathly still, utterly empty, carrying a hint of destruction, yet it was also filled with a calm concern as it inquired about her progress and whether she was injured.

She has completely lost her previous cheerful and sunny side.

Fortunately, everyone in Lin's team was safe and sound. Under the escort of Grandpa Lin, they were secretly dispatched from the base under the guise of a mission, thus escaping disaster.

With such a powerful offensive S-rank talent, he could roam freely in the apocalypse even without any ghost money. No wonder he was able to become a nine-star officer in his previous life. With this aura, it seems that he could even take on a nine-star monster head-on.

On another note, Su Luo actually hoped that the Other Shore Ghost King City and the Nine Netherworld Royal Family who had fled there wouldn't be so cowardly and would attack directly, so that she could rightfully take over the Other Shore Ghost King City as well.

He moved his spare third-floor room from the small house, which was just the right place to establish a foothold in a branch city of the capital. After arranging accommodations for the people in the base outside, he began to decorate his little nest.

Xia Ming watched as Su Luo manipulated the surroundings, instantly changing the atmosphere, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes.

This is getting more and more interesting. Are they really treating the apocalypse like a game? What kind of character is he? Is he an NPC?

"Sister, sister, sister!" In a great hurry, a miniature black box resembling a coffin rushed in from outside. It was none other than Zhao Cai, who had awakened under the [Twin Entanglement] skill that day.

Unlike the previous dilapidated bronze ticket box, it has now merged with the black coffin. Although it is still a box, its shape has become more like a coffin, and its body has turned the black of the coffin. Blood-red vines emerge from the black box, evolving into things that look more and more like human hands and feet.

Unlike the previous two pairs, this one can now be described as... a hundred hands and a thousand pairs.

People with even a slight case of trypophobia would probably faint from fright if they saw the current "Lucky Charm".

As for the star rating and panel of the Fortune Cat, they present a completely different and ambiguous state. It seems that the star rating has been upgraded to four stars, but then a six-star rating and a question mark are added. In Su Luo's opinion, even the system probably can't determine what the Fortune Cat is currently classified as.

"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?" Su Luo finished installing the next template, then put down the tablet and looked at Zhao Cai.

"Hmm... it's nothing serious. There's a monster from the Yellow Springs Ghost King City named Zhao Jinlai who says he's a friend of yours and wants to see you."

"This is his visiting card!"

At the same time.

The capital city of Luoyang is a branch city.

"Tsk tsk tsk, only a few days have passed and the capital base has completely changed!" Zhao Jinlai was shocked as he looked at the Luocheng branch city, which was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations to welcome new residents.

It has branches of delicious restaurants, commercial streets in the provincial capital, branches in the capital city, pastry shops, brain hot pot, frog fun, a wide variety of things, and even a supermarket with fully intelligent robots. It has everything you could want, and it is even better than the previous capital base!

"I remember the city lord of Los Angeles was a human, right?"

"It really is a human!"

"Damn, how did she, a human, manage to do all that? She even has farmland and solar power? Are we living in the same bizarre apocalypse?"

Zhao Jinlai thought for a moment and slowly nodded, "It seems, it appears, that we are indeed in the same apocalypse."

Some of the strange creatures in the City of Ghosts, especially the high-level ones, have most likely never been to the human world. Firstly, they disdain it, and secondly, they see no need for it.

In their minds, how could those weak humans, who struggled to even eat and drink, and were even willing to sell themselves into slavery to the monsters, possibly have such a comfortable environment? It even surpasses the City of Monsters!

That's unscientific and doesn't make sense!

Ten minutes later.

"Hey, Zhao Wujin, do you have any money on you?"

Zhao Jinlai: ?

The one-eyed man in the group nudged Zhao Jinlai's kidney fat with his elbow, looking embarrassed, and said, "I didn't bring much money with me this time. Can you lend me some? I'll pay you back when I get back!"

Upon hearing the word "borrow money," alarm bells immediately went off in Zhao Jinlai's mind. He looked warily at the one-eyed man and raised his hand to protect his chest. "You, what are you going to do? Let me tell you, don't you know how many coins I have? No, no, I didn't bring any with me!"

"Don't give me that." One-Eyed said, reaching forward to pull at Zhao Jinlai's clothes and grab his money bag. "Don't you know how much your old man favors you? Lend me some, I'll pay you back with interest!"

"You're a six-star monster and you can't even afford a penny of ghost money? You're shameful enough to embarrass anyone else!"

"It's not that I didn't bring any, it's that I didn't bring enough!" One-Eyed said, pointing to the ice cream counter not far away. "That stuff is supplied by the Gui City Commercial Street in the provincial capital. It's really delicious. I've had it once. Tsk tsk, it's so cool, icy cold, and sweet. It's so refreshing."

Following the direction pointed out by the one-eyed man, a brightly lit ice cream shop appeared in front of them. Since everyone had just arrived and probably didn't have much money, there weren't long queues like in the shopping streets of the provincial capital. It was the perfect time to grab some ice cream!
