The moment the wine spilled, a rich aroma filled the air, and the splashed droplets landed precisely on the moths in the room.
In the blink of an eye, just as the moths in the room opened their sharp mandibles, trying to devour Xiao Jin, Xiao Jin appeared beside Du Hui like a ghost. Without hesitation, she unfolded the fireproof cloth and covered Du Hui and herself with it.
The moment the curtain fell, Xiao Jin's hand was still outside when a Molotov cocktail appeared out of thin air in her palm, which she then tossed into the air.
The moment the flame touched the moth's body, aided by the alcohol, it ignited instantly. Though small, the flame spread rapidly, soon transforming the entire room into a bizarre scene of fire and darkness.
The moths scattered in all directions as the flames burned, and amidst the chaos and heat, Xiao Jin, wrapped tightly in fireproof cloth, glanced down at Du Hui, who was still unconscious, and frowned slightly.
She inhaled the dust for too long, and it appears that she is now severely poisoned.
Not only are there scales everywhere, but even when these moths burn, they emit a lot of toxic odors, as can be seen from Du Hui's current complexion.
Immediately afterwards, a series of 'pattering' sounds rang in Xiao Jin's ears, and she could feel the weight of the moths falling on her back.
However, Xiao Jin dared not delay, as there was a lot of wooden furniture in the building, and the entire building could potentially catch fire.
Xiao Jin lifted a gap in the fireproof cloth covering her body and peered out. She saw flames of all sizes falling inside the office, some of which had even spread to the wooden tables and chairs.
The moths had no time to care about Xiao Jin anymore. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Jin stood up, hoisted Du Hui onto her shoulder, stored the fireproof cloth in her space, chopped open the table blocking the door, and strode outside.
When passing by the giant ghost-faced moth, Xiao Jin didn't forget to pick up his spoils.
She killed the dying Ghostface Moth with a single strike and stored the fallen resource box in her spatial storage.
Upon reaching the entrance, she discovered that the door she had forcibly broken down earlier had been blocked off from the outside by steel plates. Xiao Jin recognized those steel plates; they were the discarded building materials scattered outside the building earlier.
Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow and slashed twice as usual, shattering the steel plate into pieces.
After they came out, Xiao Jin threw Du Hui on the ground, found a vial of antidote and poured it into her mouth. Whether she would live or die was no longer her concern.
After leaving the person there, Xiao Jin turned to leave, but before she could take a step, her trouser leg was grabbed by a hand.
Du Hui opened her eyes groggily. The figures in front of her were overlapping, and she couldn't make out their faces, but her survival instinct still made her open her mouth with difficulty.
"Please...help me...I don't want to..."
Xiao Jin turned to the side expressionlessly, stared at Du Hui for a long time, then threw a small, unopened resource box at her feet, before breaking free from Du Hui's arm and leaving.
She had no interest in carrying a burden around. She was giving her a resource box; whether she could keep it or not was up to her fate!
There is a reason why Xiao Jin thinks this way.
As soon as her hand missed its target, Du Hui's barely conscious effort vanished. Her arm hung limply at her sides, her fingers twitching slightly as if trying to grab the resource box on the ground.
Xiao Jin's departure was indeed a huge blow to her, but now that she's gone, the resource boxes are what can protect her in the rest of the game.
The only thing Du Hui remembered about the person who saved her was his pair of cold, icy eyes.
Just as Du Hui was about to pick up the resource box, a series of light footsteps approached from a distance, and then a figure stood beside Du Hui.
As the other person squatted down, Du Hui was able to see his appearance clearly. It turned out to be Lu Cheng, who had always been inconspicuous.
Although Lu Cheng still looks like a nice guy, Du Hui felt a chill run down her spine when she saw that familiar smile.
"I didn't expect you to survive and even get on the coattails of a big shot. It's just a pity..." Lu Cheng laughed as he ran his hand along Du Hui's thigh.
"Unfortunately, the big boss doesn't even look at you."
When Lu Cheng thought about how that person could produce items out of thin air, he knew that the person was a big shot with a storage space, and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
"But you're quite capable; even though the big shot left, he still left you a resource box!"
At this point, Lu Cheng couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Think about how hard it was for those guys to find the supply crates, but a girl like her could get the boss's sympathy just by crying and acting pitiful.
These days, it's better to be a woman than a man, who's treated like a beast of burden. Even though she's still a beast of burden, she'll be a beast of burden who can eat well and drink well!
Lu Cheng's gaze turned cold, and he immediately reached out and snatched the resource box from Du Hui's hand.
"What are you trying to do?" After taking the antidote, Du Hui was much better. When she saw Lu Cheng snatching her resource box, she immediately questioned him.
"Lu Cheng, are you crazy? Where's Zhou Liang? Where's Yan Weiming?"
Lu Cheng laughed heartily: "What? Still worried about your lovers? They've been killed by me!"
It felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over Du Hui's head. Looking at Lu Cheng's refined face, she felt a chill seep into her very bones. Overwhelmed by fear, Du Hui's beautiful face began to contort, and her teeth chattered uncontrollably.
Kill them!
How could he say such terrifying things so easily?
Du Hui subconsciously turned her head in the direction Lu Cheng had come from. She immediately saw that the soil behind the pile of steel bars was somewhat damp, and an arm was weakly sticking out at the corner.
"Ouch! We've been spotted!" Lu Cheng reached out and pinched Du Hui's cheek, then slowly moved closer: "Then I'll take you... to see them together!"
After saying that, he tightened his wrist as if he wanted to break Du Hui's neck.
Du Hui screamed and closed her eyes. With a 'plop' sound, a warm liquid splashed onto her face, and a fishy smell hit her.
Du Hui subconsciously opened her eyes and saw a familiar crossbow bolt piercing Lu Cheng's head. He stared wide-eyed and muttered something under his breath.
"Impossible...how..."
With a thud, the figure fell to the ground, and then a glowing object appeared next to Lu Cheng.
Three hundred meters away.
[Ding—Player killed, reward 100 points]
Over here, Xiao Jin calmly put away the composite crossbow: "Let me teach you a lesson, you'd better not covet other people's things!"
