Chapter 4

Fu Le had collected almost all the fresh wild animals that were as big as mountains. When she ran out of animals to collect, she activated the 'Countdown' and collected them all in less than two hours.

After collecting the mountain of flesh, Fu Le turned around and began searching for an exit.

The entire landfill is surrounded by curved walls, with a flat top, resembling a pumpkin. It is hundreds of meters high, and looking up, you can tilt your head back 180 degrees. The top and walls appear to be made of stainless steel, with a smooth surface and no attached materials. There are handrails more than three meters high on both sides of the slope, presumably to prevent garbage from overflowing.

When my palm touched the wall, it was frighteningly hot, like the red-hot wall of a boiler.

"Hiss..." A boiler! Holy crap! Modern landfills have combustion devices!

This landfill looks strange, but it's incredibly high-tech; there's a very high chance it has a combustion device.

At this moment, Fu Le could no longer remain calm and rushed towards the silver ramp leading to the garbage entrance.

His steps were unsteady as he stepped on the beast's corpse, slowing him down.

It was at this moment, whether it was psychological or not, that the temperature suddenly rose. Her black cotton coat felt like a thick layer of hand warmer, enveloping her completely, making her feel almost like she was being cooked.

Fu Le hurriedly took off his clothes while keeping his feet moving, and with a flick of his wrist, he put the clothes into the shuttle. However, he lost his footing and fell out, landing on a rotting Gulu Beast. "Ugh..." The stench of decay was indescribable, and Fu Le vomited on the spot.

Just then, crackling sounds came from all around. Suddenly, countless thumb-sized holes appeared on the silver wall, automatically spewing out blue flames. Incredibly hot tongues of fire rose from the edges!

The blue flames illuminated Fu Le's terrified face! She rushed forward like a madwoman, the slope that was so close yet seemed to be on the distant horizon, impossible to reach.

"Heaven is going to destroy me!" Fu Le thought sadly, as the temperature behind him rose higher and higher.

She thought that being given a second chance was a sign of divine mercy, but little did she know, fate was determined to give her a different way to die! And such a gruesome one at that!

"Help...help...the shuttle!! The shuttle!!!! Help...God, you bastard!! The shuttle, you bastard!! Aaaaaaah..."

"Cough cough cough cough... Waaaaaah... Mom... Waaaaah... Shuttle, I curse your ancestors, you kill but don't bury you..." When the thick smoke and high temperature appeared at the same time, Fu Le's body could no longer withstand it. His heart was racing, his head was throbbing, and his respiratory tract was burning.

Huff huff huff... I'm going to die again. This time, if I die, it'll really be over. Huff huff...

Just a second before Fu Le lost consciousness, a cold mechanical arm snaked down from the slope, like an iron clamp, and grabbed Fu Le. After the mechanical arm and Fu Le disappeared, at the same moment, a heavy iron barrier on the slope suddenly fell down with a loud bang, like a guillotine, completely blocking the exit of the garbage dump. The garbage pit began to destroy the beast carcass tightly without a trace of smoke leaking out.

Thinking back on Fu Le's previous actions, if the guillotine had been placed outside beforehand, Fu Le would have undoubtedly died on this trip to another world!

Outside, Fu Lere's confused mind was a complete mess. He felt himself suddenly fly up, and then the burning heat behind him receded further and further away. When he came to his senses, he was already sitting on the cold ground, which was full of light.

"Where did you come from? Why are you so small?" A voice that made one's eardrums ache rang out from above. Fu Le's mind cleared up a bit. Just as he was about to look up, he was lifted into the air and met a pair of blood-red eyes. "It's you. You're not dead!"

Fu Le stared in horror at the face that was as big as a two-story building, with those sharp teeth. Her small amount of flesh couldn't even fill the gaps between the man's teeth. She couldn't control her physical fear and trembled.

Yu Zhang never expected that the toy he had randomly picked up was still alive. He had brought it back from the forest, but its eyes were closed and it wasn't moving. He thought it was dead and threw it in the trash can. Just now, when he passed by the garbage station, he heard a sound coming from inside. Although it was faint, he could still hear it crying. Because he found it strange, he asked Amon (the robot) to find the source of the crying. He never expected that it would be the little animal he had thrown away. However, this little animal looked very strange. It looked a lot like their fish clan, both in terms of facial features and limbs. It could also talk, but it was too small, shorter than his finger.

"Little thing, can you talk? Are you human? Or an elf? Or some other race? I've never seen anything as small as you before." Fu Le's hair was ruffled into a bird's nest by a single finger, his head bobbing back and forth, his neck almost snapping!

The man's words made Fu Le's ears ring, but he couldn't understand a single word of his rambling. He could only pretend to be mute and remain silent.

Yu Zhang asked several more questions, but the little thing wouldn't open its mouth, so he got tired of it, put the person on his head, and walked towards the other side of the gleaming passage.

Fu Le felt a sudden dizziness and landed in soft hair. He quickly reached out and grabbed the edge of the huge hair crown. His palm felt icy cold, and the burning sensation on his body instantly subsided.

Fortunately, the old man's hair didn't smell bad; in fact, it had a pleasant, clean fragrance.

This hair bun looks somewhat like the crowns used by ancient royalty to bind their hair. I don't know what material it is, but it feels like stainless steel all over.

They were now walking along a shimmering corridor, where the shimmering light wasn't from jade or gemstones, but from stainless steel-like mirrors that were particularly dazzling under the sunlight.

Above the giants' heads, the view was expansive, and one could see many giants walking towards them, all dressed in long silver robes, their entire bodies from the neck down shrouded in silver robes. Around their necks hung huge silver plates, inlaid with large, glittering diamond-like stones, all of which looked very heavy.

This world is like a world of only one color, silver; it's a vast world of stainless steel.

For Fu Le, reflective objects were light pollution, too dazzling, so she could only squint and look around.

The other giants around would bow to the giant she was sitting on, but the giant she was sitting on would ignore them; their status and position were obvious.

Needless to say, this guy is a big shot.

"The shuttle, what kind of world are we in?" Fu Le asked in his heart.

There was no response.

Fu Le asked several times, but still received no response.

Is the shuttle broken? I almost died just now, and the shuttle didn't even respond.

"Timer!!" This time, there was a response; 19:12:21 appeared out of thin air before my eyes.

"The shuttle, you're still here!!" Fu Le exclaimed in surprise.

No matter how much she hated the shuttle before, seeing that it was still there, she breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the shuttle was still there, she could go back. Thank goodness.

However, the shuttle never showed the meager intelligence it had displayed before, as if it had lost some energy and remained silent.

When Fu Le noticed his surroundings again, he found himself in a banquet hall. The hall was spacious and grand, shimmering with silver light. Long silver tables were laden with all sorts of enormous foods—meat, vegetables, and fruit—placed very simply, without plates, chopsticks, or forks. The giants used...

Holding the food directly in his hand and stuffing it into his mouth, Fu Le saw cooked foods shaped like hearts, placed on plates made of large leaves.

While Fu Le was dazzled by the food, Yu Zhang picked up a strawberry, picked off a small piece with his fingernail, put it on his head, and stuffed the rest into his mouth.

Fu Le felt a strong, refreshing fragrance forcefully rush into his nostrils, and a piece of strawberry the size of a watermelon was placed in front of him. Instantly, his mouth began to water involuntarily.

It smells so good!

Even though his reason was somewhat resistant and worried, Fu Le still reached out and touched the strawberry flesh. 'Mutant strawberry, non-toxic, edible!'

Fu Le: !!!

Then I won't be polite!

The sweet strawberry burst in her mouth, its rich and fragrant flavor almost making her, an earthling who had never tasted such delicious strawberries in her two lifetimes, scream.

It's so delicious, so incredibly delicious!! Not only is it all-natural, but it also tastes amazing!

Oh no, she'll never be able to eat strawberries on Earth again. What will she do when she goes back?

Fu Le didn't realize that Yu Zhang could see his satisfied expression while eating, thanks to the reflection in the pillar in front of him.

Yu Zhang smiled, "I'm glad the little thing likes it."

Next, Yu Zhang started feeding him all kinds of fruit. Fu Le didn't stand on ceremony and took a small bite of each one. He would put away the ones that tasted good and the ones that didn't, and see if he could process them to make them taste better when he got back. They were all natural fruits, and it would be a waste to throw them away.

Yu Zhang kept feeding him, and didn't realize that the missing fruit pieces hadn't all gone into Fu Le's stomach, but had been collected.

After the banquet, Fu Le had a great haul, happily feeding the fish and octopus, completely forgetting how someone as small as Fu Le could eat so much food.

"Hey, Yu Zhang, did you raise a little elf? My god, she has four limbs! And a head and a mouth! Oh!" Finally, someone noticed Fu Le on Yu Zhang's head and gathered around, bombarding him with all sorts of amazing questions.

Yu Zhang boasted about how he found Fu Le, and then Fu Le was fed again. This time, instead of fruit, he was fed small, unfamiliar silver bottles that looked like chemical test tubes, except that all the bottles here were silver and opaque.

Yu Zhang grinned and happily accepted everything that everyone had brought. These were all nutritional supplements for his little pet, and he would keep them safe, as everyone said, that she wouldn't be malnourished.
