Chapter 1038 Deal

"That's true." Will nodded. Although the environment on Black Star is harsh, it has grasslands, mountains, rivers, and forests.

The creatures in those places have all mutated and are not suitable for consumption.

The radiation and toxin levels are alarmingly high.

All of Black Star's food was purchased from outside at high prices. All they could buy was nutrient solution. They had heard of and smelled natural food, but had never eaten it.

It would be great if they could have someone who could cook join their team, so they could save on buying nutrient solution.

After looking Jian Yan up and down, he asked, "The biological toxins and radiation in Black Star are incredibly high. Are you sure you can eat it?"

"You definitely can't eat it, but it doesn't matter. I have a way to eliminate radiation and toxins." Jian Yan smiled confidently.

The three of them didn't believe it, but seeing her confident look, they decided to give it a try.

If they succeed, they can save a lot of money in the future, and maybe even make some money.

If you fail, you will only lose a few hours.

"Okay, you can go out of the city with us first. If what you said is true, you can follow us from now on. If it's not, we will go our separate ways when you come back, and you can find another umbrella for protection. How about that?"

"make a deal!"

So the three of them took Jian Yan to rent a hoverboard and go out of the city.

There were four people standing on one hoverboard, which was really crowded, but there was no other way. Jordan and his family were poor and didn't even have the money to rent an extra hoverboard.

Their purpose of leaving the city today was to hunt black bugs.

The silk spit out by the black insect has the effect of stopping bleeding and healing wounds. In a world where medicines are priced sky-high and most people cannot afford them, Black Star has won the favor of the lower classes with its high quality and low price.

But black bugs are dirty and smelly. Those who are capable of catching them dislike the smell and look down on the little profit that black bug silk can bring. Those who are not capable of catching them like the profit but cannot catch them.

Jordan and his friends are capable and also look down on the profits brought by black insect silk, but they are now so poor that they can hardly make ends meet, so they take a job catching black insects on the black market.

Because the customer needs a large quantity, the profit is still acceptable.

Bringing Jian Yan along is just a convenience.

On the way, Jordan Will warned, "Let me make it clear first, we have work to do and don't have time to protect you. Don't count on us."

Jian Yan hummed, "Understood!"

Many people leave the city, and their means of transportation are hoverboards. Occasionally, you can see a hover car, which is extremely shabby. It is true that they are poor.

About an hour and a half later, they arrived at their destination.

This is a world of black and gray. Everything you see is either black or gray: black-gray land, black-gray stones, black-gray animals and plants. Apart from these two colors, there are no other colors.

Even the water in the river is as black as ink.

Jian Yan was silent for two seconds. "With such high radiation levels, aren't you wearing radiation-proof clothing?"

As soon as she said that, the three people who got off the hoverboard turned their heads to look at her, their eyes looking at her as if she were a fool.

"Protective suits are very expensive. Poor people like us can't afford them." Qiao Qiao said with a smile.

"Moreover, protective clothing is a strategic material, and the sales channels are controlled by the government. Occasionally, one or two pieces appear on the black market, and they will be snapped up by the big forces first. A small force like us can't buy it even if we have money." Jordan Weiss replied calmly.

Jian Yan said, "Should we separate now or walk a little further before separating?"
