Chapter 3 Chapter 3 [Mall has officially opened——]...
Mu Yan walked towards Ye Ning. As he approached, the pollution concentration on the bracelet continued to decrease. When it reached the surface of her skin, it dropped to 5!
Instantly, Mu Yan's eyes turned to extreme enthusiasm when he looked at Ye Ning. No wonder she could be safe and sound in such a heavily polluted place without wearing any protective equipment! It was simply incredible. Although the plant-loving elements in pure humans could reduce the pollution concentration to a certain extent, he had never heard of anyone being able to reduce it to such a degree.
Even with the latest pollution filters, to reduce the pollution concentration in a closed unit space to 0-5, several plants must be placed in the space for assistance, but now it is outdoors!
But now is not the time to explore this. Mu Yan looked at Shao Yu and said, "Put her on Gu Yu's back first."
Gu Yu still maintained his white tiger form. Although he had left the restricted area, there was no guarantee he wouldn't encounter other dangers on the way back. Furthermore, he had sustained several injuries, and if he was exposed to the air for a long time, his injuries would definitely worsen.
Shao Yu hesitated for a moment, then chose a suitable position to place Ye Ning on Gu Yu's back. Worried that she might fall, he secured her with a safety rope.
When Ye Ning was completely immersed in the white tiger's soft and shiny fur, she felt a little dazed.
She! Actually! Lying! On! Lao Hu!
She had never dreamed of such a scene, and this tiger could even speak human language! Isn’t the tiger’s vocal system different from that of humans?
Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, their pronunciation was the same.
Only after being completely safe did Ye Ning have the brain and time to sort things out. Although she had known for a long time that most people in this world could turn into wild beasts, she was still shocked to see it with her own eyes.
She still couldn't understand why the tall and handsome man suddenly turned into a beast.
"Will all the people here turn into animals?"
The little mushroom stretched out its matchstick hand and scratched its head. "My understanding of this world is limited. You'll need to slowly gather more specific information. But they don't seem to have any ill will towards you."
There's no ill intention, but if everyone can turn into an animal, except her—
Ye Ning startled and raised her head.
As soon as she moved, she caught the attention of everyone around her, even Gu Yu turned to look at her.
The majestic tiger's head tilted slightly, and its beautiful blue eyes did not have any sense of oppression and ferocity that a beast should have. Instead, it looked at her very gently.
Le Song immediately walked to Ye Ning's side, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ye Ning is an orphan, born in the apocalypse. While her wood-related abilities are modest, she possesses a natural ability to sense the good and evil of others. Many times, she's relied on this sharp and accurate intuition to save herself from danger.
For example, right now, Ye Ning could clearly feel their kindness and... liking? It wasn't even just ordinary liking, but rather a deep, intense warmth.
Is it because she's a child now that they think she's cute? This isn't Ye Ning bragging; when she was little, the food aunties at the base were always happy to order more food for her because she was cute and sweet.
Or maybe they didn't realize she was a human, so they took care of her as a child?
"Gurgle--" Ye Ning's stomach just made a hungry sound.
"She seems hungry!" But seeing Ye Ning's chapped lips, Le Song quickly took out his water bottle and said, "Drink some water first."
He opened the lid of the kettle and carefully wiped the opening of the kettle with clean medical gauze before handing it over.
"Do you know how to drink water from a kettle?" Ye Ning looked too young and had never communicated with them until now. He really couldn't imagine how she grew up.
Le Song made a drinking gesture and handed the kettle to Ye Ning's mouth, "Water, drink water first."
Ye Ning was indeed very thirsty. She hadn't eaten anything all day. If it weren't for her special abilities, she would have been sunburned to death long ago.
Her throat rolled when she saw the kettle for the first time, but she took the kettle and sniffed it unconsciously first to make sure it was okay before she started to drink it.
"She can drink from a bottle! She's so smart, she knows how to drink it just by watching it once!"
When Le Song was shouting, no one around him thought it was wrong, and they all had expressions of approval.
Fortunately, Ye Ning didn’t know what they were talking about, otherwise she would have felt embarrassed.
Seeing Ye Ning's cheeks puffed up and a few drops of water flowing out of her mouth, Shao Yu gently wiped the water from her mouth with clean medical gauze.
Ye Ning looked up at him, but found that his pupils did not seem to be a standard circle, but a little narrow, and the iris around the pupils was shining with a fine silver luster.
"Can you understand what we are saying?" Mu Yan also moved closer to Ye Ning and asked slowly, word by word.
It must be said that although the men before her had different styles, their looks were all impeccable. She wondered if everyone here was just that good-looking. After taking a few more glances, Ye Ning felt that the energy she had just lost due to the stimulation from those monsters had recovered a lot.
However, Ye Ning didn't understand what he was saying, so she could only try her best to appear confused and harmless to reduce the danger of her presence.
After a while, Mu Yan finally came to a conclusion with a frown, "She doesn't know the common language of the Federation."
Who on earth were the people who abandoned her there without even teaching her the Common Language of the Federation?!
In addition to clean water, they also took out the nutrient solution they carried with them.
The nutrient solution was in a transparent test tube, and it was blue. Ye Ning had never seen such a thing before, and thought it looked like some chemical product in a laboratory.
They handed it to her and made a drinking gesture. Seeing them drink it, Ye Ning didn't want to drink something so strange, but she still tried to drink it.
The first sip was a strange, almost peculiar taste, like a mixture of cheap chemical additives and industrial flavorings. Even more terrifying, the flavors didn't blend at all. With one sip, the complex, industrial aroma assaulted her nose and brain. Ye Ning only dabbed a little on the tip of her tongue before spitting it all out.
It was so unpalatable. She had never tasted anything so unpalatable before. It was a hundred times more unpalatable than dried earthworms that tasted like Houttuynia cordata!
Unexpectedly, she would react so violently. Shao Yu quickly patted her back and handed her the water bottle again. He looked a little cold: "She doesn't seem to have drunk the nutrient solution."
The taste of the nutrient solution was indeed appetizing, but they were already used to it. Her reaction was so strong that she even hesitated while drinking it, as if it was her first time.
Mu Yan thought about it carefully, "Pure humans should prefer to eat fresh food."
The Xisha area is located in the western border area. This vast desert area has become the garbage dump and exile place of the entire planet, and the living environment is extremely harsh.
Fresh food is always expensive and rare, and it doesn't provide the same nutrients quickly as nutrient solution, so everyone relies on drinking nutrient solution. If the people who raised her had always fed her real food, why would they leave her alone in such a filthy and terrifying restricted area?
There are so many mysteries surrounding Ye Ning.
The little mushroom rolled around in her mind. [Ningning, this is nutrient solution. Drinking it will make you feel full and nutritious.]
Nutrition and satiety? Then she must drink something.
"I understand." Ye Ning took a deep breath, then pinched her nose. Amidst everyone's surprised gazes, she took the remaining nutrient solution from Shao Yu's hand and poured it down her throat in one gulp.
Without passing through the tip of her tongue, the extremely impactful industrial taste was finally reduced a lot, but after it was completely poured in, although she tried her best to restrain herself, she still couldn't help retching. Ye Ning covered her mouth tightly with both hands, feeling so uncomfortable that tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
Little Mushroom was right. This was indeed very filling. After drinking it, her hunger instantly disappeared, and even her fatigue was reduced a lot. Apart from the unpleasant taste, this thing was almost perfect.
There was no telling what would happen next, so it was always a good idea to fill her stomach and recover. After making sure she wouldn't vomit, Ye Ning quickly took another sip of water to suppress the taste. She would definitely make this thing banana flavored if she had the chance.
Ye Ning had no idea how much her action had shocked everyone. She was already thin and small, looking incredibly pitiful, and now, forced to do so, she was forced to curl up into a ball, her eyes filled with tears as she covered her mouth and trembled slightly. This moment completely aroused everyone's pity.
An unprecedented, indescribable feeling of guilt and heartache quickly brewed within them. They all secretly vowed to never let her push herself like this again.
"Team 1's captain will be back from the capital tomorrow. I'll go get him some fresh food."
"I'll go catch a fire rabbit beast for her." Shao Yu said calmly.
"I still have a candy!" Le Song took out his treasured candy and handed it to Ye Ning reverently.
The candy was wrapped in colored paper and melted slightly.
They chattered a lot, but Ye Ning didn't understand a word. But seeing Le Song's expectant expression, she lowered her head slightly and put the candy in her mouth.
This candy is actually not very delicious. Not only is it hard and sweet to the point of being greasy, but you can't tell what it tastes like. It just has a faint milky flavor.
She held the candy in her mouth, and the left side of her cheek puffed up slightly, making her already chubby face look even cuter. Le Song breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile in her eyes and mouth, looking sunny and bright.
His smile infected Ye Ning, who couldn't help but smile back at him. His bright and clean smile instantly excited everyone. Le Song quickly raised his hand, "Me, me, me, I want to catch a Fire Rabbit Beast for her too!"
They were still anxious to rush back to rescue people, so they temporarily gave Ye Ning some supplies and then rushed to the military camp at full speed.
Ye Ning had candy in her mouth, and her lips were sparkling.
The sun had completely disappeared over the horizon. Ye Ning lay on the tiger's back, looking up at the sky. The moon here was not a cold white, but a blood-red. It was large and round, more than five or six times larger than any she had seen before. She could clearly see the bumpy craters on it.
The tiger's fur was soft and fluffy, and felt wonderful to the touch. Ye Ning wanted to rub it, but because she was wearing a gas mask, she could only rub it secretly with her hands.
Gu Yu, who was always watching her, noticed Ye Ning's movements and tried to make himself more stable when landing. She was too small, lying on his back, as if she didn't exist. Even with something to hold her down, Gu Yu was still worried that she would fall, and he would look back from time to time.
He couldn't see Ye Ning lying on his back, but he could feel her warmth and movements. A soft, tiny ball, so light it looked like it could float away in the wind, even more adorable than a newborn cub.
Thousands of years have passed, but nature hasn't cleansed this massive pollution. Instead, the living environment has become increasingly harsh. Only pure humans possess plant-friendly elements, allowing them to grow plants and alleviate the pollution. Therefore, all orcs believe that pure humans are the planet's last hope.
The white tiger walked very steadily. Ye Ning had been tossing and turning all day and now she was lying in the soft tiger fur, feeling the wind blowing past her ears, and her tense nerves relaxed to the extreme.
Ye Ning yawned, and just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard the mechanical prompt sound of the system.
