"A red alien core would probably be enough to destroy an extremely powerful alien."

"An extremely powerful superhuman?"

"You really don't know anything." Even Kachi, who was usually very patient, was getting impatient. "You should take a look at the basic database of the Invasion Department when you have time. There's a special section for basic knowledge there."

Ji Yueyao's face flushed slightly upon hearing this. She realized she had asked too many questions and could only nod, asking, "So how do I earn the points you mentioned earlier?"

“You’ll have to go to the points management office in the search department.” Kachi stretched and turned her gaze back to Ji Yueyao. “You need to see for yourself and understand it in order to live better here.”

"This is your key. Remember to lock the door if you're the last one to leave, otherwise some people will come in and cause trouble." Kaqi handed the key hanging on the door to Ji Yueyao and then left. "Anyway, that's it. I have to go to work. You should go earn points as soon as possible. Oh, and the water for washing your face is by the door. Remember, it's your turn to fetch the water tomorrow. After you wash your face, pour the water into the toilet sink. Don't forget."

Ji Yueyao listened attentively and took the key that Kaqi handed her.

"Ah, wait a minute!" Looking at the keys in her hand, Ji Yueyao suddenly looked up and called out to Kaqi, "Kaki, do you know about the training camp?"

“The training camp in the training area? You want to go there?” Kachi turned around and shook her head, seemingly disapproving. “It is indeed a place where you can train for free, but the training volume is huge. In addition, we also have to live, so generally we don’t have time to go there. Otherwise, the people here wouldn’t have such a hard life. After all, it’s better to have the strength to go out than to work hard in the base and not get much reward.”

Kaqi left quickly, and Ji Yueyao stood alone at the door. She hesitated for a moment, looking at the somewhat murky water in front of her, before squatting down to wash her face. The dirty water stung when it touched the scrapes on her hands from the fall yesterday. She looked at her hands, sighed, picked up the water, and went into the toilet next door. Since they lived on the very edge of the building, the toilet on this floor was quite close.

As soon as she pushed open the bathroom door with the water in her hand, the smell wafting out almost made her faint.

Good heavens, just how dirty is this...?

Gritting her teeth, Ji Yueyao poured the water into the sink and fled back to her dormitory as if her life depended on it. She was genuinely terrified, as she was always a germaphobe. The thought of having to use the toilet in such a place in the future... well, she decided to think about that scary thing for now.

She remembered that the map of the Xiyu base was on her bed, and now she had to go out and find out about her living environment herself.

There's only a little over half a bottle of water left, and that's only because she drank a lot of water when she went out yesterday; otherwise, there wouldn't be a bottle left now.

Having finally reached for the map, Ji Yueyao jumped up, trying to grab it quickly, but accidentally knocked her wallet to the ground.

"What's the use of a wallet now?" Ji Yueyao picked up the wallet with a bitter expression. She habitually opened it and flipped through it, but then she was stunned. She then took out a photo from inside with trembling hands. Looking at the familiar smiling face in the photo, she almost couldn't control herself. It wasn't because of fear, but because of an extreme sadness.

How could she forget that she had a family photo in her wallet?

Dad, Mom, I miss you.

Perhaps because it was daytime, there were many more people on the street than when she first arrived at the Xiyu base yesterday. Ji Yueyao carefully avoided the crowds and masked her inner panic amidst the noise.

She should go to the points management office of the search department first.

"Hey, watch where you're going!" a man yelled at Ji Yueyao, his eyes wide.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Ji Yueyao hurriedly bowed her head and apologized. She had lost count of how many times she had apologized. On the way here, she finally truly experienced what it felt like to be surrounded by a sea of ​​people. There were just too many people in this place. If she hadn't followed the flow of people, she probably wouldn't have been able to take a single step and would have been swept away.

Moreover, the closer they got to the points management office, the more people there were. Ji Yueyao looked at the tall figure in front of her and scratched her short hair in frustration. She hadn't been able to move for a long time, and her stomach was practically rumbling with hunger.

Seeing the crowd growing even larger, Ji Yueyao could only take advantage of her small size and start looking for gaps to squeeze through; if she stood there any longer, it would get dark soon!

Having finally reached the end, Ji Yueyao breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed her aching calves. "Where did we end up?"

Looking at the few scattered people around her, Ji Yueyao looked up and saw a record board in front of her with some points-based tasks written on it.

Is this where you pick up missions? Ji Yueyao looked at the crowded people not far away, then glanced at her own empty space. She didn't understand why everyone was crowding over there to pick up missions.

Looking up at the task board in front of her, Ji Yueyao noticed a large "a" marked on it. Turning to look at the other task boards, she saw that the letters on the boards changed to "b", "c", "d", and "e" in order towards areas with more people.

Could this refer to the difficulty level of the mission? Ji Yueyao stepped forward for a closer look and found that the mission board in front of her read, "Go to the Silent Forest to eliminate three super-powerful alien plants, 350 points," and so on. Looking at the board next to it, it read, "Go to the Wasteland to search for the seven members of the Seventh Squad of the Invading Department, 270 points," and so on. Even if she were a bit slow, she would understand now that these mission boards were arranged in levels, and the higher the level, the more points the mission would earn. And the missions she could do now… Ji Yueyao looked at the crowded people ahead and sighed softly. Even if she wanted to, she couldn't squeeze in now.

Putting the mission aside for now, Ji Yueyao shook her head and decided to find a place where she could check her points, since she was most curious about what she could exchange her points for.

Looking around, Ji Yueyao walked into the points management office building. Once inside, she found that the environment was just like the bank in her original world, bright and clean, and very tidy.

Inside, on the right side, there was a row of machines that looked like game consoles, with one or two people surrounding each one.

Ji Yueyao watched as the men walked to a device, chatting and laughing. They placed their identity cards into the slots next to the screen, and something immediately appeared on the screen.

From her angle, the screen was reflective, so even if she strained her eyes, she couldn't see anything. But looking at the men's strong bodies and the bulging veins on their foreheads, she didn't have the guts to approach them. So she just stood there in the corner, waiting for the men to leave the equipment before daring to go over and check.
