The original owner was an orphan, but she was very cute since she was a child. She was adopted by a couple when she was eight years old. However, her adoptive father was a pedophile and pervert, and the original owner almost fell into his hands.
Although he didn't succeed, it left a huge psychological trauma on me, and I have been allergic to men ever since.
The original owner found an opportunity to escape from that house, but ended up having a car accident.
The man who hit her was a rich second-generation man. He not only paid all the medical expenses, but also found a good family to adopt her after learning about her situation.
From then on, the original owner's life took a big turn. The old couple who adopted her treated her like a little princess. However, the shadow left by her childhood always lingered in her heart.
Five years ago, the old couple passed away one after another. After their funeral, the original owner fell ill. It was at this critical juncture that Xue Huan traveled through time.
At this time, the end of the world had already arrived, but the original owner had been immersed in grief and hiding at home for several days, so he didn't know it yet.
Because of the original owner's allergic constitution, Xue Huan naturally could not find a man to sleep with and have children with. She also had to stay away from men as much as possible to prevent others from discovering her problem and using it to deal with her.
When Xue Huan discovered this, she almost committed suicide due to depression.
She was a transmigrated soul, and the system told her that she did not die in the car accident, but became a vegetable, with her body still lying in the original world. The time ratio between the novel world and the real world is 10:1, which means that 10 days passed in the novel, but only 1 day passed in reality.
She has now been in the apocalypse for 5 years, which is only half a year in reality.
The system showed her the real situation. Because she did not wake up for a long time, she was diagnosed as a vegetative state by the doctor.
Her mother and grandfather, the two people who loved her most, had passed away, so few people were truly saddened by her situation. But she had lived there for over twenty years, and that was her home. If she could, she would definitely want to go back.
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to go shopping easily, eat whatever you want, and not worry about any dangerous creatures suddenly appearing?
But five years later, her allergies still hadn't healed, and it looked like they were going to stay with her forever. If this continued, could she really go back?
Thinking of this, Xue Huan couldn't help but sigh deeply.
After walking for a few more minutes, she found herself in front of a small supermarket. It was only about ten square meters in size, very clean and tidy, with a few items sparsely displayed on the shelves.
Don’t be fooled by the small size of this supermarket and its limited range of goods, but this is the end of the world. If someone can open a supermarket in the end of the world, it’s obvious that the owner must be no ordinary person.
Sitting behind the cashier counter was a man in his forties, wearing exquisite clothes, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, holding a book in his hand, and his posture was relaxed and calm, making people feel as if he was sitting in a high-end office area rather than a small supermarket sandwiched among ruins.
This man is the owner of this supermarket. His surname is Fang and people call him Lao Fang, although he is not old.
Noticing someone coming, Lao Fang looked up from his book and smiled at her, "What goodies have you brought this time?"
Xue Huan didn't say anything. She took off her backpack and placed it on the counter, then took out the things inside one by one.
Two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes, a bottle of Moutai liquor, a large bag of sanitary napkins, a box of tissues, several boxes of loose playing cards, and a handful of colorful lighters.
Seeing these things, Lao Fang's eyes lit up and he picked up the bottle of Moutai and took a closer look.
Xue Huan said succinctly, "Old Fang, do the math."
Outside, she always appears to be quiet and cold.
"I'll give you two level four crystal cores in total, how about that?"
Five years after the end of the world, crystal cores have become the new currency.
After the end of the world, humans, animals and plants all underwent mutations. A small number of people awakened their special powers, while most people turned into unconscious monsters.
This monster looks like a zombie, but its habits are exactly the same as those of a vampire. It is afraid of sunlight, hides during the day and comes out at night, and is extremely bloodthirsty. It can be said to be a combination of a zombie and a vampire. People have given this creature a name - blood demon.
This is the direction of human mutation. As for animals and plants, it is as if they have taken hormones. Their bodies grow rapidly, becoming bigger and taller, and their aggressiveness increases greatly. In just a few months, all places are occupied by these mutated creatures. Humans fall to the bottom of the food chain and struggle to survive.
Regardless of whether it is a human, an animal, or a plant, a crystal will appear in the body after mutation, which people call a crystal nucleus.
Crystal cores have many functions. Medicines developed using crystal cores can stimulate people to awaken their superpowers. People with superpowers can use crystal cores to practice and improve their strength. They can be circulated in the market as a trading currency, and so on.
According to the amount of energy contained, crystal cores are currently divided into nine levels from 1 to 9. Level 1 contains the least energy, and level 9 contains the most, but level 9 only exists in theory. The highest level crystal core discovered so far is level 8.
Lao Fang's price was quite reasonable. Xue Huan nodded and took the two crystal cores in a small cloth bag from him.
She checked it, confirmed it was correct, and took a newspaper from the shelf at the door as she turned to leave.
An apocalypse has brought humanity back to the pre-liberation era. Newspapers, as a means of transmitting information, have made a strong comeback and become a necessity for people to understand information from the outside world.
She had already subscribed in advance, so she didn't need to pay extra now.
Lao Fang suddenly remembered and called her: "There's an auction downstairs tonight. Are you interested in going?"
As he spoke, he handed over an admission ticket.
"Thanks." Xue Huan took it indifferently.
After returning to the villa, Xue Huan walked into the dining room and poured the crystal cores in the small cloth bag onto the marble table. The two crystal cores were the size of lotus seeds, one yellow and the other red.
The crystal core is naturally spherical, with many prismatic facets on the surface, shining with bright light, like a big sparkling diamond.
Not to mention its functions, its appearance itself is enough to impress people.
This red one was probably dug out from the blood demon's body, because only the crystal cores in the blood demon's body are blood-colored. Looking at it in the sunlight, it seems as if blood is flowing inside, the beauty is enchanting and dazzling.
The higher the level of the blood demon, the darker the color of the crystal core in its body and the larger its size.
The color of the crystal cores in mutated animals and plants is not fixed, and is generally green, blue, yellow, purple, white, etc., which are generally consistent with their own properties.
For example, the nuclei of organisms in water are usually blue, and the nuclei of plants are mostly green...
Xue Huan called out the system panel and sold the crystal core to the system. The system not only sold things to her, but also recycled things. However, so far, the system was only interested in the crystal core.
The two level four crystal cores were sold for 20,000 gold coins, while the things she had previously sold to Lao Fang only cost her 3,000 gold coins.
The profit from reselling it is nearly 6 times, no wonder so many people become middlemen.
