I Check In to Survive the Apocalypse

Martial arts prodigy Qiao Ling fell for a trap set by her own cousin and ended up transmigrating into the body of a sixteen-year-old girl in a parallel world. But what she didn’t expect was that ...

Chapter 21 Zerg Attack 1

When Qiao Ling was about to ask how many points were needed to open the third page, she suddenly heard the sound of a car speeding past her head again. The sound was very urgent. Although Qiao Ling did not see it with her own eyes, she could also feel how anxious the driver was, "Something happened up there!"

At this time, there was a voice asking for help from above.

Qiao Ling directly turned on the live broadcast. At this time, the host's voice in the live broadcast room changed its tone, "Ah! Help! Help! Help!"

Qiao Ling couldn't help swallowing when looking at the footage captured by the anchor.

Bugs, bugs are everywhere, and these bugs are very big, white and fat, almost as thick as a baby's arm, and at least a foot long.

"Oh, help! It hurts so much and it itches so much when I get stung by this hairy insect!" Someone was stung by a hairy insect and his arm instantly became red and swollen.

Qiao Ling saw the densely packed white fat insects. Although some of them had thorns on their bodies, most of them were smooth. Occasionally there would be one with thorns like this one. The man who looked like he was poisoned could only say that he was too unlucky to have encountered such a insect with a poisonous sting.

At this time, the host's driver had stabilized the car and was speeding towards the central city.

There was no barrage in the live broadcast room at this moment, and no one knew what everyone was doing. After waiting for about three minutes, someone finally responded, "I saw it, I saw it. There are densely packed white and fat bugs outside the city. Most of the teams outside have returned. I don't know if these bugs eat people."

"I don't know if they eat humans, but those insects with thorns are like thorns and are poisonous. Look at that man's arm, it's already purple now."

"Oh my god, what should I do?"

Is a bug so poisonous? What should I do?

When Qiao Ling was watching the live broadcast and the comments, the system said, "Host, there is a random task. The system will recycle bugs, and each one will get one point."

Qiao Ling's face twisted. She was a little afraid of these bugs. Is that okay? She said, "Isn't one point a little too little? Such fat bugs should be worth at least five points each."

The system said, "Host, these bugs don't need you to get close to them!"

Qiao Ling's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Catch them from a distance? Then I can just stand over here and catch the bugs above, right? If that's the case, I can accept three points for one bug."

The system said, "The maximum score is two, no more."

Qiao Ling smiled, "Let's collect the bugs now!"

The system said, "The host needs to get close, at least stand near the entrance, to receive the bugs."

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Qiao Ling collected all the things at the entrance and sat down on the steps. "Now let's collect the bugs!"

"Ding! Collect sixty bugs within a ten-meter radius, and score one hundred and two points!"

"Ding! Collect ten bugs within a ten-meter radius, twenty points!"

Qiao Ling was depressed. "System, can you just wait a while to collect it? You will definitely not be able to collect it if you collect it continuously. It will waste your chance to speak."

One minute later, "Ding! Collect forty bugs within a ten-meter radius, eighty points!"

One and a half minutes later, "Ding! Collected 65 bugs within a 10-meter radius, 103 points!"

"Ding! Collect 61 bugs within a 10-meter radius, and score 122 points!"

······

Just like this, the system reported a number every one and a half minutes, and then Qiao Ling fell asleep half lying at the entrance.

When Qiao Ling woke up again, she felt hungry, so she took out a beef bun and started eating it. She ate five in a row and drank a bottle of milk before she felt full.

Five hours had passed by then, and it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. The system had been collecting bugs for five hours without stopping, and had earned nearly 30,000 points. The number of bugs was too huge.

Qiao Ling turned on the live broadcast. The bugs had gathered around the power grid. The power grid was still useful, so the bugs were being roasted with electricity.

The people in the live broadcast room were not terrified or scared because some people had already run down there and even got some insects that were roasted by the electric grid. They were said to be very fragrant, with a meaty aroma, so many people ran to eat them.

Seeing those people enjoying their meal, Qiao Ling couldn't help but ask, "System, are those roasted insects really delicious?"

"Host, have you signed in?"

Qiao Ling smiled and said, "Sign in!"

"Ding! The host will have to roast 1,000 insects if he signs in for 14 days of survival."

Qiao Ling took out a roasted worm and asked, "System, is this worm clean?"

"Anything produced by the system must be of the highest quality! The host can rest assured that the system guarantees that the bugs are absolutely clean, much cleaner than the bugs roasted on the electric grid." The system directly guaranteed that the roasted bugs produced by the system are definitely hundreds of times more refined than those roasted on the electric grid.

Qiao Ling took out a roasted insect. The insects were big, and each one weighed almost half a pound. Qiao Ling took a bite and found it was crispy and fragrant and tasted great.

"Delicious, it's indeed a top quality product!" Qiao Ling praised directly. The insects tasted so good that she sincerely hoped to get these insects again when she signed in tomorrow.

Qiao Ling didn't find it hard to eat. After all, when she saw those fat white bugs before, she already thought that the bugs must taste good.

The system told Qiao Ling, "Host, there are too few bugs up there right now. Do you want to go up and catch some? Right now, close to the center, it's estimated that there are more than a few hundred bugs within every ten meters."

Qiao Ling looked at the scene in the live broadcast room and it was indeed the case. The insects were so densely packed that there were definitely hundreds of them within a radius of ten meters.

"System, let's discuss this. I can go out and harvest those bugs, but I want half of them to be paid as points, and the other half will be turned into roasted bugs. Also, for every thousand I harvest, the map will expand outward by ten meters. If you agree, I will go out. If you don't agree, then forget it!" Qiao Ling didn't want to work for free, not without benefits. The things that could be bought with points were useless to her now.

Qiao Ling is now addicted to the smell of insects. Such fragrant insects, it would be a shame if she didn't get more.

"One third of the dried insects. Every thousand will expand the map by five meters." The system said firmly.

"System, if you're going to bargain like that, I won't go. Half of the dried insects is my bottom line. If you don't keep half, I won't do it." As for the map, she knew that it was impossible for every thousand to expand by ten meters, so Qiao Ling didn't force it. However, dried insects are a delicacy, especially those produced by the system. They are really delicious. Only a fool would not want them.

Besides, she doesn't want to work for others all the time. At least half of the time she works for herself is the most cost-effective way.

In order to let Qiao Ling do more tasks, the system finally had to agree.

Qiao Ling studied the anchors and videos carefully. Now everyone's attention was on insects and dried insect meat, and there was a white patch everywhere. As long as she wore white clothes, people in the central city would not notice her so easily.
