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...
Where is this place?
Su Luo felt as if she were floating in the sea or drifting in mid-air. Her whole body was in excruciating pain, as if she had overexerted herself and her muscles were fermenting with lactic acid. Every cell in her body was screaming at her!
"...It moved, it moved!?"
"Go and call someone!"
A commotion arose beside her, followed by the sound of footsteps rushing about, and then another, more unsteady set of footsteps stopped beside her.
Su Luo slowly opened her eyes, and an elderly, kind face appeared before her.
"Little girl, you're awake? Can you hear me?"
Is there anything else that's bothering you?
With a girl's help, Su Luo sat up, looking around blankly. He nodded, then shook his head.
Seeing this, the old man examined Su Luo's body again and nodded with a satisfied smile, "You've recovered quite well. It's all thanks to a young person. If this injury had been on someone slightly older, it would have been gone on the spot."
hurt?
Upon hearing this, Su Luo seemed to remember something.
[Abyss], Holy Domain, Lord, Outer God... A series of memories flooded his mind, and Su Luo subconsciously raised his hand to rub his temples.
If she remembered correctly, the moment she came into contact with the Gate of the Abyss, whether it was due to her own power or the power of the attack from those monsters, the Gate of the Abyss suddenly exploded, knocking her unconscious!
Looking at the elderly human and the young girl in front of him, Su Luo narrowed his eyes.
So, she's back now? Back to the apocalypse? I wonder how Yuechen and the elders of the Su family are doing, whether they'll escape this calamity?!
Thinking of this, Su Luo tentatively looked at the old woman and the girl and asked, "Excuse me, which base or city is this?"
Upon hearing Su Luo's words, the old man and the young man paused, exchanged glances, and were about to say something when a fierce knocking sound suddenly rang out.
"Grandma, those people are here again!" the girl said angrily, then looked at Su Luo on the bed, "Miss, quickly hide, don't let those people see you!"
As she spoke, the mother-in-law also got up and, just like the young girl, supported Su Luo's body, trying to shove her under the bed.
Su Luo: ? ? ?
What's going on? Judging by how skilled these two are, she's probably been stuffed under the bed several times already.
'boom'!
Just as Su Luo was being shoved under the bed, the door was kicked open, and a man with a scar on his face walked in menacingly, followed by several tattooed, blond-haired youths who looked quite energetic.
"Meng's wife, when exactly are you planning to pay this month's rent?"
"Rent? Wasn't it paid just three days ago? How can they come to collect rent every day?!" The girl beside her was furious and spoke before she could finish her sentence, but Granny Meng covered her mouth and pulled her away.
"I'm sorry, Brother Ying, she's just a kid and doesn't know any better. Please don't hold it against her. Tell me how much the rent is this month, we'll pay it. We'll go out and earn some money later and pay you when we get back!"
Hearing Granny Meng's words, Ying Ge, who was about to explode, nodded and looked at the unconvinced girl provocatively, "Learn more from your grandmother, be more sensible, so that you can help your grandmother share some of the burden as soon as possible!"
As Yingge spoke, he reached out to touch the girl's cheek, but Granny Meng stopped him, "Yingge, it's getting late, let's go to work now, let's go now!"
"etc!"
Interrupted from his previous actions, Ying Ge was clearly annoyed, and his tone turned cold. "No need to work today. We happen to be short a few people for the Weird Dungeon. The healer in our team was injured in the last dungeon."
At this point, Yingge looked at Granny Meng with a playful expression, then at the young girl, "I remember Granny Meng used to be a doctor, right? Could you do me a favor and give me a little pointers?"
"In that case, this month's rent will be waived!"
This sounds like a great deal, but if you think about it carefully, isn't it just sending Granny Meng to her death?
While the current bizarre dungeons are not as dangerous as they were in the early days of the apocalypse, a large number of high-star bizarre dungeons have recently emerged, offering rewards far exceeding those of the lower-star dungeons. However, this has also greatly increased the danger!
The bizarre dungeon guides that Luo Cheng provided before are completely useless now. The girl knows that Ying Ge has been leading people to explore those high-star dungeons recently, trying to obtain the best rewards. At the same time, he can also write some walkthrough guides to sell for money!
If Granny Meng were to go along at this time, although she is a doctor, she is old and would not even have a chance to escape if danger were to occur!
He's forcing her, forcing her to... bow her head!
Taking a deep breath, Meng Yingying looked at her elderly mother-in-law, suppressed her fear, and stepped forward to Ying Ge. "Ying Ge, I was being unreasonable just now. My mother-in-law is old. Could you... could you not let her go to the dungeon? I'll do a lot of things if you just don't let her go!"
"Double the rent is fine too!"
Hearing this, Ying Ge revealed a smug smile, and slowly raised his greasy right hand, approaching Meng Yingying...
"Awooo, awooo!"
I instinctively closed my eyes, but the expected nausea didn't come. Instead, I heard a miserable scream and the sound of tables and chairs being overturned.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Yingge wailed as he looked at Su Luo, paused slightly when he saw her face, and then a piercing pain instantly pulled him back to his senses.
The sound of a wrist bone breaking was the response to Ying Ge's question.
"Which base, which guild, which city's organization are you from?"
A cold and indifferent female voice echoed in Ying Ge's ears, like a devil from hell, oppressing his mind!
"Damn it, you dare break my hand!" Ying Ge cursed as he stood up from the ground, supported by several of his underlings, glaring angrily.
"Which base? Which guild? Who do you think you are, daring to question our boss like that... bro?!"
Before he could utter the last word, a bone sword pierced the henchman's throat. With a few groans, the henchman collapsed, twitched a few times, and died.
What I saw was beyond my imagination!
"You, you're a user of innate skills?!"
Yingge seemed to have thought of something, and screamed in a hoarse voice. Then, as if she had thought of something else, she calmed down and stared intently at Su Luo's exceptionally handsome face.
"Since you are a skill user, you should have heard of... Lord Luo, right?"
Su Luo: ?
Lord Luo? She had not only heard of him, but she was also quite familiar with him.
Su Luo raised an eyebrow, not recalling knowing anyone by name, and slowly sheathed the bone sword in her hand. Since this person mentioned Luo City, she wanted to see what he had to say.
