Chapter 5
After they took advantage of the visual difference at the corner and fell into a large ball of spider silk, the mother spider temporarily lost their sight.
Under normal circumstances, even if they hid, they would not be able to hide for too long and would be found due to the slight shaking of the spider silk.
But after the mother body arrived at the playground, it obviously had no time to take care of them.
Caught in a tangled dilemma.
After all, it is a filthy creature, a species with a desire for destruction and devouring that has reached its peak.
The moment the larvae began to approach, it could no longer resist the murderous instinct in its bones, raised its thorny feet high, and directly pierced the larvae closest to it.
The young was hung on its feet like a skewer, and before it had time to feel the pain, it was torn apart and eaten by its sharp mouthparts.
Some of the thick green liquid trickled down the mother's feet, attracting more young.
Not only the mother will eat her offspring, but even the young ones like the taste of their brothers and sisters.
It's like hell on earth.
A gluttonous carnival.
The mother was eating her children frantically, her body soaked in the green blood of the young ones. Then some of the young ones rushed forward without hesitation, climbed onto her back, and began to gnaw at her.
A strange closed loop is formed, hurting each other.
I don’t know how long it took, but the large number of larvae on the playground were almost cleared out.
Although the mother was strong, she still suffered serious injuries when facing so many young ones, and there were bite marks all over her body.
Wen Bei sighed and turned his head to look at Ji Mingyuan who had remained silent: "Now you can solve it with a non-self-destructive method, right?"
Ji Mingyuan also looked at him deeply before crawling out from the spider web where he was hiding.
The illusory black eagle standing on his shoulder had never suffered this kind of "injustice" of hiding. As soon as it was released, it flew forward with a long roar.
The tail feathers were like sharp blades, and with a few dives they created several long and deep wounds on the belly-faced spider.
The belly-faced spider had no time to absorb the food, and its stomach was full of its own children, so it was caught off guard and its head was cut off.
The head with eight red eyes rolled on the ground and gradually lost its luster.
After moving for a while, he died.
Ji Mingyuan cleaned up the remaining few young ones that were not to be feared. The completely black pupil in his right eye revealed a bit of indifference that was unique to mercenaries who had experienced the ups and downs of the apocalypse.
But this indifference disappeared and turned into helplessness when Wen Bei came over curiously.
Ji Mingyuan glanced obscurely at his bracelet that had to warn him every ten minutes, then looked at the young man who didn't care at all, and felt that he was extremely brave.
Even though it was their first day meeting, the young man showed him several faces.
She is bold and fearless, and also saves people unexpectedly. Although she has a face that can bring disaster, she is not just a pretty face.
A strong sense of contradiction was intertwined in him.
Ji Mingyuan didn't say anything, just leaned aside and watched Wen Bei poke the mother's body with the black dagger.
The seven human faces on the abdomen of the belly-faced spider originally showed negative emotions, but at the moment of facing death, they all smiled.
Although the scene did not make it any less weird.
Wen Bei used the dagger to gesture at the spider, found a good spot and began to cut one of its legs, while avoiding the blood that looked poisonous.
Ji Mingyuan gave him a strange look and said, "You can't eat this."
Wen Bei replied perfunctorily: "Yeah."
He didn't find anything this time, so he had to at least bring something back.
He only needs one raw material to unlock the first recipe. If this spider leg is recognized, he can open a restaurant and no longer have to eat carrots every meal.
Ji Mingyuan was not the type to meddle in other people's business, so he watched him cut off part of the spider's leg and put it into his backpack.
I don’t know what material the backpack is made of, but it’s not corroded.
Only Wen Bei knows that the magic of this backpack lies in its capacity.
Far larger than what can be seen with the naked eye.
There seemed to be an invisible small space inside that could accommodate the entire mother body.
But he didn't plan to reveal too much to Ji Mingyuan at the beginning. This was not a hotel. His supernatural powers were so powerful that it would be troublesome if he wanted to kill him.
Wen Bei finished collecting what he wanted to collect, then turned around and extended his hand to him: "Would you like to go back to the hotel with me?"
...
For some reason, Ji Mingyuan followed him in a daze.
When they reacted, they were already standing at the door of the hotel.
I am a dying man, and everything now is meaningless.
Ji Mingyuan thought so in his heart, and a trace of loneliness flashed across his eyes.
But he was really curious about what the hotel Wen Bei was talking about was.
So I looked up and took a closer look at the dilapidated hotel, which was made entirely of wood.
It doesn't look like anything special, but once you enter the yard, it's full of weeds.
In the end times, even the weeds on the roadside could be aggressive, so Ji Mingyuan deliberately avoided these weeds.
Wen Bei relaxed a lot as soon as he entered the hotel and opened the door directly.
"My dear master, you are finally back!"
A pink and white thing quickly shot out and was about to pounce on him. Ji Mingyuan instinctively released the Black Hawk to intercept it.
"What the hell!" The rabbit butler was almost caught by the black hawk.
Fortunately, no violence could occur in the hotel without the owner's permission, so the dog was able to save its life.
Even Ji Mingyuan, who had seen a lot in the five years since the apocalypse, was shocked: "A talking rabbit?"
The rabbit butler adjusted his tie and said, "How rude! I'm the butler of this hotel."
It looked at Ji Mingyuan with its red eyes, feeling the power of his supernatural powers.
"Human, your strength is quite good. I reluctantly accept you as our first customer."
Even the end of the world has happened, so when such strange things happen again, the relative acceptance rate has become higher.
Ji Mingyuan put away his shocked expression and remained alert: "Isn't this filth?"
Wen Bei shook his head: "This is the rabbit butler, you should follow it and rest first."
He has something to do now.
Ji Mingyuan was very interested in the talking rabbit and nodded when he heard it: "Okay."
Then he followed the rabbit butler into the hotel with a curious look on his face.
Wen Bei went straight to the restaurant area to be unlocked, where a recipe was displayed at the door.
He clicked on the first recipe, and two food slots appeared like in a game.
【Please select food ingredient number one. 】
Wenbei put a carrot on it.
【Please select food ingredient number 2. 】
Wen Bei took out the spider leg from his backpack and put it on.
[Whether to choose to generate the first recipe. ]
【yes. 】
A golden light flashed, and the restaurant, which was originally gray and not allowed to enter, suddenly became rich in color.
Wen Bei stretched out his hand and found that the wall of air had indeed disappeared.
He entered the restaurant section of the hotel smoothly.
The restaurant is divided into four parts: dining area, cooking area, condiment area and retail area.
The dining area has a total of twelve tables and twenty-four chairs, as well as a row of six seats by the window, all with ordinary white wooden furniture.
The condiment area has a variety of seasonings and some side dishes such as pickles, with a slogan painted on it: Don't waste.
The retail area sells some dry food such as bread and biscuits, all priced at around five crystals.
The restaurant has the following rules: [1. Food prepared in the cooking area has the effect of reducing pollution.]
【2. Food in the snack area and retail area will be automatically replenished every 24 hours, without any raw materials required.】
【3. Each customer must use crystals to redeem any food in the restaurant.】
【4. No waste.】
【5. Non-chefs and owners are not allowed to enter the cooking area.】
【The above rules are only visible to the boss.】
Wen Bei's eyes lit up. Unlocking the restaurant immediately solved his food problem.
Although the retail area only occupies a very small corner of the restaurant, the shelves above are filled with bread and biscuits. Even if he cannot find food ingredients in the future, he can survive by relying on the dry food that is automatically replenished in the retail area.
The most important thing is the cooking area.
This is the heart of the restaurant – the kitchen.
You can't see the kitchen from the outside.
So when Wen Bei entered the kitchen, he was a little surprised.
Because there was nothing in the kitchen, only two big pots and a big screen showing the recipe.
He just needs to select the recipe he has unlocked, and the food will automatically appear in the cauldron.
At this moment, only the first dish was lit, which was a dumpling soup that cost ten crystals.
Below the dumpling soup pattern, there is also a number 12.
It means that the carrot and spider leg he put in today can make a total of twelve bowls of dumpling soup.
Wen Bei clicked twice, and the number twelve turned into ten, and then fragrance came from the two big pots.
He lifted the lid of the pot and saw two bowls of dumpling soup.
Wen Bei put the two bowls of dumpling soup on a tray and brought it to the table. At the same time, he used the telepathy between the boss and the employees in the hotel to call the rabbit butler.
The rabbit butler very tactfully led Ji Mingyuan towards the restaurant.
Wen Bei's eyes lit up with friendliness: "Come, have a bowl of hot dumpling soup."
Ji Mingyuan hadn't eaten for almost a day. When he smelled this, he subconsciously sat down at the table, his Adam's apple moving up and down: "No need."
Wen Bei, who had been eating raw carrots for two days, was the first to scoop up a dumpling filled with meat and eat it. He asked incoherently, "Why?"
The dumplings were filled with corn and pork, but thankfully they weren't affected by the strange ingredients.
Wen Bei thanked silently in his heart.
Ji Mingyuan had great self-control. He looked to the side and said, "I'm dying. I won't waste food."
Wen Bei naturally couldn't let go of his first customer. As long as Ji Mingyuan took a bite, he would have to pay for the ten crystals even if he didn't want to.
Wen Bei's expression then became more friendly, with a hint of condemnation in it: "Why would you want to commit suicide when you're fine?"
Ji Mingyuan glanced at his bracelet, and a flash of self-mockery flashed in his other normal eye: "Didn't you hear? My pollution level has reached 95."
Wen Bei, who seriously lacked common sense about the apocalypse, disagreed: "It's not even a hundred, why are you giving up?"
Even if the pollution level is 99, once you enter his shop, you will be his leeks... God!
This was the first time Ji Mingyuan had seen such an optimistic person. He frowned and said, "There is nothing in the world that can reduce pollution levels. Death is my inevitable end."
There is nothing that can reduce pollution?
Wen Bei looked puzzled. He looked up at the restaurant rules. After making sure that the first rule was not a misunderstanding, he slammed the table with a heartbroken expression.
Damn, this restaurant's prices are too low!
The author has something to say:
In case some of you don't like it, let me say this in advance. Although the protagonist is not a heartthrob in the traditional sense, each employee will have a different filter for the protagonist, a very thick filter~~
