The long journey has finally come to an end.
I don't know what 252 went crazy for, but it built a safe house 20 kilometers away from the center of the wasteland. It has enough resources for ten people to survive for half a month, but it has obviously been visited before. Xu Zhian realized this as soon as he entered the door.
"Enjoy your meal, love you all... unknown lady?"
He ripped the label off the wall, utterly baffled as to which lowlife experimenter was so bored that this idiot had sampled the delicious food first and left this thing as a mockery.
Damn it, that's some serious luck.
People starving to death has never happened in the lab, but that doesn't mean this kind of competition won't happen. 252 believes that they will cause mental breakdowns on their own. If some bastards remain heartless and complacent, it is happy to create some unexpected situations, such as sudden death traps. In short, it will not let them have an easy time.
The safe house was decorated in a serene style, and there were corpses torn into several pieces on the carpet. It was a perfect place to fill one's stomach.
"Come in quickly, we're in luck! We not only found a skill card, but we can also get a free good meal."
Xu Zhian had only said half of his sentence when Xu Pei'an dragged Long Sanshi in. She screamed and sat down on the sofa, the smell of blood filling the air, making the whole room look like an execution ground.
"Alcohol! Alcohol! I need to drink alcohol!"
"Okay, okay, stop yelling like that."
Xu Zhian was clearly somewhat distraught. He downed two glasses by himself first, and only after confirming that there was nothing wrong with him did he take the row of colorful glasses over: "Drink less. What I mean is, if someone comes to raid you later, I don't want to slip away while they're skinning you alive."
"Fuck you." Xu Pei'an gave him the middle finger and recklessly chugdled alcohol down his throat.
What happened next was like a scene from a cheap comedy.
Xu Pei'an smashed all the wine glasses on the table and started yelling. She even tried to drag Long Sanshi down with her, but he politely refused and said he would keep a close eye on her to make sure she didn't actually get drunk.
"We should still kill her, this woman is too useless!" Xu Zhian finished another glass of strong liquor and said loudly that since only two people could survive anyway, they might as well kill Long Sanshi now. Although she did save Xu Peian once, shouldn't life have a bit of drama?
"No way! If you dare do that, I'll spit in your brain!"
"But she's a nuisance, and she can't fight!"
"Of course I know she's in the way, otherwise why would I let you keep her around!"
"Damn... I really don't understand why that idiot named 252 is so stingy. Wouldn't it be better to just increase the number of survivors?"
Long Sanshi listened quietly the whole time, only smiling, without refutating anything.
Feeling bored, Xu Pei'an, who always thought alcohol made people crazy, grabbed another glass of wine and ran over, tempting her, "Drink up, drink up, and you'll become as beautiful as me after you finish it."
She was certainly not pretty; to be precise, this madwoman was terrifying—perfectly embodying the image of Frankenstein's monster. Her features looked as if someone had cut them into several pieces with scissors and then sewed them back together with terrible skill. The loose threads were still on her face, giving one the illusion that her entire face would fall apart at the slightest tug.
"I'm allergic to alcohol, thank you."
Long Sanshi could imagine that these shocking scars came from various experiments. During that time, she must have suffered extremely brutal things and couldn't bear it, which is why she became so insane.
No one would think this is paradise, except for Xu Pei'an, who is not very bright. She thinks this is a salvation in her painful life.
Xu Zhian, on the other hand, was hardly a tragedy. Apart from his inexplicably irritable temper, he was a rather weak-looking guy with a clean-cut head of brown hair.
“I know that look.” He swallowed a plate of pastries and glared fiercely at Long Sanshi: “You’re complaining about how ugly I look in my giant form.”
So these two are siblings; one has paranoia, and the other is simply mentally ill.
Half an hour later, they finally finished eating. Long Sanshi sat in the corner the whole time. She wasn't hungry at all. As the newborn heart, Long Sanshi could provide almost endless energy.
Xu Zhian pulled out a map and started doodling on it, looking as if he were reading a wordless book.
“We’re going to the rainforest.” After some more fuss, he came to a conclusion that didn’t sound very plausible: “What do you guys think?”
Xu Pei'an naturally had no objections. She was too lazy to think about these issues. The map was obtained from a skill card and could show the whereabouts and number of other players. Xu Zhi'an's reason for going to the rainforest was undoubtedly because there were many people there and she could grab a lot of good stuff.
He's always like that, with an arrogant attitude, making me feel like he's the only one who's beyond help.
So next, Long Sanshi calmly discussed with him the risks of rashly going to the rainforest, and that there were other resource points on the map. If everyone blindly went to the same places, it would be a disaster.
Xu Zhian actually thought about the pros and cons of the plan. Just then, a four-person team came from outside, bringing with them heavy footsteps and the sound of metal clashing.
The madwoman jumped up from the sofa, grabbed a broken bottle, and tried to rush outside. Long Sanshi grabbed her and held her down. Fortunately, there was a back window in the safe house. At this moment, she and Xu Zhian cooperated surprisingly well, dragging her like a hostage to the bushes behind the house.
The group quickly approached the safe house, but they didn't seem surprised, as if they had expected a resource point to appear there.
