As a laid-off reemployed worker, Yun Jian was accidentally swept into a real-life survival game when she had nowhere else to turn. She was also 'lucky' enough to acquire a special attribute...
At first, the fourth brother sincerely asked, "Didn't the eldest brother and the others rob Baba Ranch? Why don't they just take over the ranch's grounds and make it their own?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Bai Yu slapped him on the head.
"Are you stupid? We came straight from the jungle to Baba Ranch's territory. If we take over their territory, won't we be the first ones to face the other charred corpses once they break through the barrier?"
The fourth brother scratched his head sheepishly, "That's true."
And sure enough, they actually found a suitable place to develop.
"This location is close to the source of the only major river on the grassland, and its terrain is higher than other places, making it a good site."
Looking at the area circled by Bai Yu and the others, Yun Jian also thought it was a good place.
only……
"Anyone with eyes can see that this place has great advantages. Have you really investigated thoroughly and confirmed that this is still unclaimed land?"
The fourth brother counted on his fingers, his voice a little weak: "It can't be completely considered unclaimed land. Many forces used to occupy this place, but for one reason or another, those forces either withdrew or... were wiped out."
Upon hearing this, Liang Song remarked, "Good heavens, this is an ominous place."
The fourth brother carefully observed Yun Jian's expression. "But we arrived too late. All the other suitable campsites have already been claimed, and the remaining places are in really poor condition."
The fourth brother moved his finger and drew a simple map on the ground. "The rest are just these few places, mostly swampy areas."
"And here, it's full of miasma. People in the chat say that no one has ever come out after going in."
"As for this place, the swamp and miasma make it a shortcut to meeting the King of Hell."
Yun Jian glanced at the map and nodded. "Alright, let's go check out the ominous place first."
Just then, White Nose and the others returned during the discussion.
Yun Jian took out what looked like the best divine flower from his backpack, and all the charred corpses swallowed hard.
When they saw these divine flowers at Baba Ranch, they almost lost control of themselves.
I had a strong desire to snatch the divine flower, chew it up, and swallow it.
"White nose," Yun Jian called out.
White Nose quickly stepped forward, while the other charred corpses cast envious glances.
But none of the charred corpses made any rash moves; they had all ingested a lot of gunpowder and could distinguish the pros and cons of the situation.
Not the kind of mindless zombie that acts solely on instinct.
When Yun Jian took out the divine flower, she noticed a dialog box pop up in the system—
[Do you wish to recycle the Divine Flower? Recycling this Divine Flower will earn you points. After confirming the recycling, the Divine Flower will disappear from the player's possession.]
She raised an eyebrow; it seemed this divine flower was a way to earn points on the grasslands.
However, judging from the time she's been here, the divine flower is in short supply, and the people here prefer to use it on demonic beasts to gain profits.
She chose no.
After all, he had promised White Nose and the others before.
She handed the divine flower to White Nose.
White Nose was still a little out of it, and excitedly asked Cloud again and again, "Are you really going to give it to me?"
Yun nodded.
Seeing his incredulous expression, she frowned. "Don't want it? If you don't want it, I'll give it to the other corpses."
He was about to take it back when he said that.
White Nose suddenly snapped out of his daze and quickly said, "I want it!"
It took the divine flower as if it were holding a delicious delicacy, took a deep breath, and then slowly ate it.
Everyone stared at it without blinking.
White Nose's form gradually blurred, and the acrid smell on its body gradually disappeared. In the end, White Nose's body turned into a ball of white light.
Bai Yu was a little worried, "Will nothing happen?"
"Probably not. Bai Bi also thinks this divine flower is good for him, so he shouldn't be poisoned to death," the fourth brother added.
To be honest, Yunjian wasn't sure either.
The origin of this divine flower is a mystery, and the people on the grassland regard it as a gift from heaven, claiming that its effects are almost comparable to the health products touted by unscrupulous drug dealers.
All she can do now is wait.
I hope Bai Bi is lucky and has a long life.
Taking advantage of this time, Yun Jian picked up another divine flower that looked to be of the lowest quality. Sure enough, the content of the dialog box that popped up in the system changed—
[Would you like to recycle the Divine Flower? Recycling this Divine Flower will earn you 500 points. After confirming the recycling, the Divine Flower will disappear from your possession.]
The previous one, this one is worth 500; different levels of divine flowers have different values.
As she was deep in thought, a gloating voice suddenly came from beside her, "Do you really think that divine flowers can be used by just anyone? That heavenly-level divine flower can only be used by at least a first-class demon beast. Using it on a lower-level beast will only backfire. Besides, that dark-skinned guy isn't even a demon beast!"
Yun Jian was startled and looked at the ball of white light.
Bai Yu immediately ran to the silkworm cocoon that had spoken and shook it vigorously: "You knew? Why didn't you say so sooner!"
"Ahem...you didn't ask me!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yu immediately submerged the entire silkworm cocoon in the water.
"Looks like the punishment just now wasn't enough. You still haven't fully grasped your situation!"
From inside the cocoon, an arrogant voice rang out, "Hmph! Don't even think about making me submit. I am a dignified second-class demon beast. Most of the demon beasts on this grassland would give me a wide berth!"
It had never looked down on Yun Jian and the others. "You people can't even tame a fifth-grade demon beast. You can only associate with these guys who aren't even demon beasts. Why should I serve you!"
It had been defiant before, but now, because of the changes in Bai Bi's body and the absence of the black silk threatening it in the cocoon, it became unrestrained.
Bai Yu hissed, "Hey, just a few wild horses, I don't know where they get their arrogance from. No matter how powerful you are, you still ended up in our hands, didn't you?"
"Hmph! That was because you attacked us when we weren't paying attention! If it happened again, we definitely wouldn't lose to you!"
Yun Jian glanced at the restless cocoon and sneered, "Try again? You've lost your leader, so if you try again, you'll only get beaten up."
"Do you think we only have one horse? We..."
Before he could finish speaking, two lumps fell out of the white light.
One six-ringed horn, one seven-ringed horn, and several small bags of gunpowder.
The sound of the silkworm cocoon abruptly stopped.
After all, they were the leaders, so it naturally recognized the aura emanating from them.
Not only the talking cocoon, but the other cocoons also began to shake violently, clearly indicating that they were very agitated.
Yun Jian sighed and muttered with a smile, "That White Nose, we told it to throw away both of its horns, but I didn't expect it to secretly bring them back. It usually pounces on gunpowder like a hungry wolf, but in the end, it actually managed to secretly save some."
She paused, then looked at the ball of white light: "If something happens to you, the gunpowder you squeezed out from between your teeth will be divided up by the other corpses!"
