Chapter 2
"A juvenile belly-faced spider at three o'clock!"
"There's one on the right, too!"
With the continuous explosion points, the well-trained mercenaries accurately shot through the fatal weaknesses of the filth one by one.
The fishy-smelling blood burst out, and when the bright green liquid fell to the surroundings, it was so corrosive that it corroded large holes in the ground. The seemingly peaceful weeds around it screamed and curled up.
"careful!"
A loud roar came from behind Bai You. The man with a slightly younger face turned around in horror and found that a belly-faced spider with its ferocious mouthparts was rushing towards him.
It swung towards me using spider silk. There was no time to dodge at this distance. My brain was working frantically but my body was frightened and didn't react.
call out--
A sound of breaking through the air accompanied by the cry of an eagle passed by.
Only the phantom of the eagle took the attack for Bai You. At the same time, its sharp tail feathers flapped, directly splitting the belly-faced spider into two, and then the phantom eagle also disappeared on the spot.
The disgusting innards of the belly-faced spider were all over the floor.
Bai You almost let go of the gun in his hand, and he was a little unsteady on his feet.
He looked at Ji Mingyuan who had saved his life, and his voice was filled with gratitude: "Thank you, leader."
Ji Mingyuan slowly shook his head to indicate that everything was fine.
The belly-faced spider was split in half, and its legs were still twitching.
Someone in the team spat in disgust.
Ji Mingyuan: "Hurry up and collect the usable parts, as well as the ventral face spider glands that the research institute needs."
Only the silk spit out by the belly-faced spider is useful. The other parts are highly toxic, and the glands are used for research.
The man's words obviously had great prestige in the team. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone started to act without any ambiguity.
Bai You looked at him with admiration.
The reason why he joined White Eagle was because of Ji Mingyuan.
This man was so calm, as if no matter how terrible the filth was, it could not harm humans as long as he was there.
Feeling his gaze, Ji Mingyuan glanced at him, nodded, and then stood aside to stand guard.
I feel like the team leader has become more taciturn recently.
This thought flashed through Bai You's mind.
At an angle they couldn't see, Ji Mingyuan clenched his fists, trying to suppress the itchiness that was flooding his bones.
Want to destroy something.
Want to use supernatural powers to destroy everything around.
Ji Mingyuan looked down at the black ring on his wrist obscurely.
Blue words appeared on it: [Pollution value reaches: 94.]
[Warning: mandatory notification will be issued when the pollution value reaches 95.]
Ji Mingyuan said nothing and put his hand down as if nothing had happened.
Everyone must report to the base when the pollution value reaches 90, but he didn't. Instead, he took the opportunity of this mission to come out directly.
After reporting it, he would just be under control and wait for death. He wanted to do something meaningful before he died.
Recently, the base has been troubled by belly-faced spiders. A steady stream of juveniles appear, but they are unable to find the mother and kill it.
The casualties have reached hundreds.
In the end times of scarce population, such numbers are shocking.
Find the mother body and then self-destruct.
That's his goal this time.
Ji Mingyuan felt so much pain all over his body as if his bones were crushed, but he still didn't say a word.
From an outsider's perspective, nothing seemed amiss.
After cleaning up the corpses of these belly-faced spider larvae, someone spotted a stationery store that had not yet been overgrown with contaminated plants.
Everyone went in to rest together.
The glass door outside had been smashed long ago, and the paper and pens inside had been looted as resources. Only some useless stationery items were left, and no one wanted them even if they were thrown there.
The others were already accustomed to this scene. As soon as they stepped in, they skillfully began to bandage the wounded in the battle and prepare lunch.
Bai You glanced at Ji Mingyuan, who had been silent from the beginning, and said with some worry: "Leader, do you want to eat?"
Ji Mingyuan glanced at the canned military food in his hand and refused succinctly: "No, you eat it."
A loss of appetite for normal food is also a side effect of pollution levels reaching 90%.
Someone in the team looked over here.
Some of the mercenaries who had been fighting with Ji Mingyuan since the end of the world already knew what was going on. They also fell silent, but their movements with their hands became more forceful, as if they were venting something.
They could feel that the team leader's supernatural power had improved by leaps and bounds during this period, but this was sometimes not good news for the polluters.
Especially for polluters whose pollution value has exceeded eighty.
This is the countdown to death.
Since Ji Mingyuan didn't want to talk about it, they didn't mention it either.
This is not an unconditional belief, but once the pollution value reaches 95, even if Ji Mingyuan is unwilling to report it, the bracelet that restrains them will also report it.
At that point they are no longer a reliable companion.
Although some mercenaries speculated that his contamination value might have reached ninety, no one knew that it was already ninety-four, a high risk.
After everyone had finished their meal, Ji Mingyuan suddenly stood up and said, "There seems to be a school over there."
Someone looked at the map and said, "Well, it was a middle school before the apocalypse."
Ji Mingyuan said calmly: "I'll go over and take a look."
Bai You was surprised: "Leader, it's too dangerous to go alone, let me go with you..."
Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by another person in the team.
The man shook his head obscurely at him.
Everyone fell silent, put down what they were doing, and looked at Ji Mingyuan.
Ji Mingyuan seemed not to feel the sudden heavy atmosphere in the air. He waved to them casually and walked out of the stationery store with his long legs wrapped in black combat uniform.
Suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Bai You was a new member of the guild and didn't react for a moment: "Why didn't the team leader even take a gun when he went to investigate?"
After saying this, the person who had just stopped him looked gloomy, and the other people who usually liked to joke with him were also silent at this moment.
Bai You suddenly widened his eyes and finally understood what Ji Mingyuan's departure from the team this time meant.
...
The hotel at the other end had been renovated for two days.
Wen Bei finally had a general grasp of the structure of the entire hotel.
Although it looks like a rickety building ready to be demolished at any time, the hotel is actually quite solid except for the occasional creaky wooden floor.
At least you don’t have to worry about waking up from a sleep collapse.
From the outside, it looks like there are three floors in total, with a large elevator in the middle and stairs on both sides.
But in fact, he can only go up to the second floor now. The second floor is reserved for employees. Only the boss and employees can reach the second floor. Wen Bei’s own room is also on the second floor.
It was the largest one, but the furniture only included a bed, a TV, a sofa and a large wardrobe. Fortunately, the room had everything a bathroom and toilet needed, and even a large bathtub.
The third floor shows to be unlocked.
Unlocking condition is to entertain the first guest.
Wen Bei sat at the counter in the lobby on the first floor, speechless for a while: "Who would come to this remote place?"
The rabbit steward nibbled on a carrot and said, "Isn't there a promotional coupon in the novice gift pack? Try that."
Wenbei chose to use the promotional coupons without much hope.
Half an hour later, nothing happened.
The rabbit housekeeper coughed, picked up a new carrot and handed it to him to change the subject: "Eat."
These carrots are the backpack of carrots given in the novice gift package.
There was nothing else to eat in the hotel except these, and Wen Bei had been eating carrots for two days in a row.
This was not an unbearable thing for someone who often went hungry in childhood. What made Wen Bei unbearable was that he could not cook and could only eat raw food.
Among the many activity rooms in the lobby on the first floor, there is clearly an area that belongs to the restaurant.
But he couldn't get around the screen.
Because the hotel's restaurant is also to be unlocked.
Unlock condition is to obtain the first recipe.
To unlock a recipe, you must have two or more recipe ingredients.
And his carrot can only occupy one slot in the recipe.
There is another ingredient that must be found outside.
The rabbit housekeeper encouraged him: "Anyway, you don't belong to this world, so you won't be contaminated. As long as you go out, you will definitely find other food."
Wen Bei took the carrot calmly and was not easily persuaded.
The rabbit butler showed him the restaurant's menu: "As long as the restaurant is unlocked, we can sell every dish."
The easiest dumpling soup to unlock is sold for ten crystals per serving.
Sleeping for an hour in the hourly room on the first floor of the hotel only costs ten crystals.
Selling food and beverages can obviously also become a major source of income for hotels.
The rabbit housekeeper organized a lot of words but before he could use them, the next second he saw Wen Bei, who had just been holding a carrot and looked like he would never step out of the hotel, standing at the door of the hotel with a backpack on his back.
Holding the black dagger from the novice gift pack in his hand, his black and white cat eyes flashed with a resolute light, and his gaze was very firm, as if nothing could stop him from finding a way to make a fortune, oh no, to get the raw materials for the food.
