Chapter 78: See the Fresh Meat Again
An hour passed very quickly, and during this time, Shen Jufeng and Zhuang Yun both intentionally let Lu Jiu kill the wild monsters. Shen Jufeng did so because of the +100% benefit, while Zhuang Yun saw that she had suffered such serious injuries before, so he gave them to her so that she could gain more attribute values.
Because of the bonus, Lu Jiu looked at his backpack before returning to the city and found that he had gained a lot.
Killing the saber-toothed tiger yielded: 3 tiger teeth, 2 tiger bones, 4 tiger skins, 120ml tiger blood, 100kg tiger meat...
There were also a lot of benefits from other wild monsters, so she took them out and divided them up. Tiger bones and tiger blood could be taken to pharmacies to be used to refine medicines, while tiger teeth and tiger skins could be made into equipment.
Lu Jiu got a tiger skin and a complete set of tiger bones, and they tried to divide the rest equally.

It was already evening, and professional players who had been running around outside all day began to return to the city one after another.
Lin Zuo was in a good mood. The three professional players from Wu Yu City whom he recruited revealed a piece of news to him, that is, the point where the mutant BOSS appeared directly would be refreshed.
Later I found out that there was also a mutated BOSS in Jinghe District, but I don’t know who killed it. After the game was updated, several wild monsters appeared there. Although the levels had changed, there was also a mutated wild monster among them.
Hearing this, he remembered the chameleon mantis killed by the city lord and deputy city lord near Xuantian City, and thought that wild monsters might have spawned there as well.
Therefore, he set out with his team early in the morning. Luckily, when they arrived, several wild monsters had just refreshed. When they were halfway through the fight, other professional players came, but they were sensible and left when they saw them.
It was Lin Zuo who killed the mutant mantis today. Even though it was not a BOSS-level monster, the reward he got was very generous. If he killed another monster like this, his contribution value of 5,000 would be full.
Now their team has 7-8 city-states whose resources have exceeded 3,000, and becoming official residents is just around the corner.
The other team members knew that Lin Zuo's contribution was considerable, so they jokingly said, "Boss, once you become a formal resident, you can buy a house in the residential area and become a homeowner in the future."
Becoming a homeowner in the gaming world is no easier than in a peaceful society. It's all about risking your life, but in the gaming world, you really risk your life.
When the other team members heard that they could become homeowners, they were all envious.
"Yeah, although living in a borrowed house is okay, it doesn't feel like home, it doesn't belong completely to me." Living in a borrowed house is like renting a house, except you don't have to worry about rent increases.
Lin Zuo was delighted to hear the flattering words. "You guys have saved quite a bit of contribution points, right? Keep up the good work and keep working hard for another month or so. The rewards for killing Brown Iron-level monsters are much higher than those at the normal level."
It is because of the appearance of brown iron level wild monsters that professional players have a lot more city-state resources.
It was mentioned before that the city-state would contribute benefits, and Lin Zuo had always wondered what kind of benefits they would be.
Lu Jiu and others just happened to return to the city, and the two teams met at the city gate. Lin Zuo still remembered this girl. When they were fighting against the mantis monster today, these people came.
Also, when the Chameleon Mantis BOSS had not been defeated before, they encountered the three of them who came to investigate the situation. As a result, the other party was very strong and was not hit by the Mantis's air sickle.
"What a coincidence, we have met twice." Lin Zuo said this to Lu Jiu.
Lu Jiu just tilted his head slightly, "Oh."
Just one word "oh". Lin Zuo was stunned. With his handsome face, he had many girls in Xuantian City who had a crush on him. The girl in front of him was really interesting. He only responded with one word when he was chatting her up.
Shen Jufeng took a step forward, slightly blocking Lu Jiu, "We saw you fighting against wild monsters today and we didn't take action. I wonder if you have any advice."
Lin Zuo then looked Shen Jufeng straight in the eye. He really didn't want to stand with this man because the other man was much more handsome than him.
"Don't be nervous, I just want to say hello. After all, we are destined to meet." Lin Zuo showed his signature smile, sunny and bright.
"Since we've already said hello, we have something else to do, so we'll take our leave."
When Lu Jiu heard the word goodbye, she nodded and signaled to go back to the city. She didn't like the man in front of her. Although he was good-looking, his smile was too fake.
After they walked away, Lin Zuo recalled the bloodstains on Lu Jiu's collar just now. These people were very strong. They were able to dodge the air sickle when they encountered the chameleon mantis last time, but they were injured today.
One man in the team was quite dissatisfied with his captain, "What kind of attitude is that? The captain greeted them nicely but he still gave them a cold shoulder."
"What's so arrogant about that woman..." A female team member who had a crush on her captain couldn't help but sneered sourly.
Lin Zuo watched Lu Jiu's back disappear, still smiling, and comforted his teammates, "Okay, we didn't remind them last time, so it's only natural that they don't want to talk to us anymore."
The female team member was even more dissatisfied. "I don't know them at all. Telling them is a favor. If I don't tell them, I don't owe them anything."
The other teammates agreed with her, "That's it."
Lin Zuo's smile became even brighter. "Okay, we're all in the same city-state, and we're all professionals. If we have the chance, let's try making friends. It's always good to have one more friend."
"The captain is so kind." said the female team member.
Lin Zuo smiled and turned around and continued walking forward. Kind? But those people didn't think so.
When the game was updated, it was mentioned that if you are attacked when your health is below 30%, you will get wounds. The blood was on the girl's collar, and it looked like she had vomited blood herself.
And it wasn't just one or two drops, but a small piece. The girl was definitely injured today, and Lin Zuo didn't believe that a brown iron-level wild monster could hurt her.
The only possibility is that those people encountered a higher level wild monster, most likely a BOSS level.
Thinking about the direction those people came back, Lin Zuo looked over there thoughtfully, and then decided to stay there for the time being to clear the field.

After Lu Jiu said goodbye to Zhuang Yun, she couldn't help but ask Shen Jufeng, "Why did you suddenly stand in front of me today?" Such behavior can easily lead to misunderstandings.
Shen Jufeng looked at her, his brown pupils like fallen leaves in autumn. Lu Jiu followed his gaze and looked at her chest.
Of course, Shen Jufeng was not a man without grace. He was staring at the small bloodstain on Lu Jiu's collar.
His slender fingers pointed at the bloodstain. "That guy was looking at you just now. He's not stupid. He probably guessed we encountered a powerful monster today. I don't want him to trick you."
Lu Jiu was wearing dark clothes, and the bloodstain was quite conspicuous in that location. "How did he know it had to be blood?"
She swore she saw a hint of disgust in Shen Jufeng's eyes! The other party said in a light tone, "It didn't rain today, and there are no ponds or lakes in the area we are clearing the wilderness. And with this color, even if it is stained on dark clothes, you can guess it is blood."
Lu Jiu thought of the fake smile on the young man's face and thought that he was not a good person after all, despite having such a handsome face.
