Noah's Ark Base.
As the year draws to a close, there is no joy at the Noah Base.
Last time, we followed the Greedy Wolf Guild to the granary but failed to find it, and many people were lost. The only gain was the brain flower they obtained from the five-star monster dungeon.
Strangely enough, the brains seemed to have a life of their own; if you planted them in the soil, a few more would grow, which slightly alleviated the food crisis.
However, brains are still just brains, not meat or rice. You can't eat them every day; at best, you'll just avoid starvation.
Moreover, as more and more disaster victims who had received the news or were brought back by their search and rescue teams poured into the base, the seemingly abundant supplies could not last long.
"It's really strange. It's almost Chinese New Year, but it's not cold at all in the middle of winter. I can even wear short sleeves."
Several guards on rotation walked and discussed in twos and threes.
"Don't say anymore. Anything can happen in this world. This year's Lunar New Year is probably going to be tough!"
"The cities near the base have been almost completely emptied of their population. I don't know how long they can hold out. I heard that some people are still trying to survive this apocalypse by banding together outside."
"Have you heard of the Ghost Market? It seems you can buy food there, but it's all traded in ghost money. The base is also out there buying and searching for ghost money. If it's feasible, buying from the market isn't out of the question."
"The key issue is, where does the base get so much ghost money to buy food? This isn't just about one or two people, it's about the entire base!"
As they walked and talked, they were completely unaware that Lin Shuyu's team, who had just passed by, had overheard their conversation.
"Let's go, stop reminiscing." Wu Rensheng rubbed Zhang Miaomiao's head. "They're right. Instead of exploring other strange dungeons and getting unknown rewards, it's better to just buy them directly from the Strange Market!"
"At least we know the rules of the Ghost Market Street for now."
"Oh right, the captain just came back, let's go check on him!"
Having just returned from the base commander's place, Lin Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief and sat down, only to see his team members rushing over, seemingly having something to say.
"Captain, did you just go to the base conference room?"
"What were those old guys saying? Was it about the Ghost Market Commercial Street?"
At least it happened near the base, so they weren't completely unaware of the situation. Besides, some people in the base have recently started to awaken their special abilities, but none of them are as powerful as Captain Lin.
"yes."
"The news is true."
"The location of the Ghost Market Commercial Street in Hongcheng City has been moved towards Shanshui City, or more precisely, the location of Sujia Village."
"There is only one possibility for this situation."
"The chairmanship of the Chamber of Commerce on that mysterious commercial street has changed hands."
Lin Shuyu emphasized the pronunciation of the three characters "Su Family Village," and everyone present immediately thought of one person.
If they remember correctly, Miss Su's cottage was built near Su Family Village!
The relocation of the commercial street to the border area between the two cities, near Sujia Village, speaks volumes.
"So, the current president of that strange market street is, is..." Zhang Miaomiao glanced around but didn't say the answer aloud. After all, walls have ears, and the base is not like the outside world. They didn't want to reveal Su Jie's information to outsiders.
Moreover, there's the Wu family in the base.
The Wu family had a junior member die in the academy two years ago, and they were also swindled out of everything by Xia Ming of the Greedy Wolf Guild. Even Wu Qishan didn't come back. Now they probably hate the Lin family and Sister Su to the bone!
Fortunately, Captain Lin awakened his innate superpower. With the apocalypse upon them, the Wu family had no choice but to give up any attempt to take advantage of the situation.
It's just a temporary halt!
"We've been given a new mission: to go to the Ghost Market and buy as many supplies as we can."
Lin Shuyu looked at Zhang Miaomiao as she spoke, her words simple and clear: "Just the two of us."
Zhang Miaomiao: "Huh? Ah! Then I can see..."
"It's not the strange market street in Sujia Village, but the provincial capital."
"According to the information we have received, the Guishi Commercial Street in the provincial capital has sent invitations to all the commercial streets in its jurisdiction, inviting the presidents of the chambers of commerce of each commercial street to visit the Guishi Commercial Street in the provincial capital."
Hearing this, everyone present was no fool; they probably understood what was going on.
"They're after Sister Su!" What's there to say? It's probably a trap, a scheme to lure Sister Su in and catch her like a turtle in a jar!
"Then what about us?" Zhang Miaomiao asked tentatively. This was clearly an invitation to a trap, and she hoped that her sister Su wouldn't fall for it!
Lin Shuyu understood Zhang Miaomiao's concerns. After thinking for a while, Lin Shuyu beckoned Wu Rensheng over, "Old Wu, go and pass on a message for me."
...
At the same time, the faces of the demons grew increasingly grim as they watched the endless stream of braised pork, and they even began to refuse it to each other.
When will this ever end?
The demons never once felt that having too many resources was a good thing!
'Beep beep, beep beep, strange object detected.'
"Beep beep, beep beep, strange creature detected approaching!"
The creature is not attacking. Should we activate the perimeter fence to intercept it?
The all-around Sky Eye detection system suddenly sounded an alarm and simultaneously projected the appearance of the foreign monsters into the cabin. Before Su Luo could react, the monsters present stood up in unison, as if they had made a pact, and each one ran faster than the other.
"Boss (or sister, or president), let us go check it out for you!"
"That's right, which reckless monster dares to cause trouble on our territory? I'll teach him a lesson!"
