After leaving the abandoned building, Xiao Jin continued forward and finally crossed District D before nightfall, arriving at a new area.
However, the harvest along the way was far from ideal. It took Xiao Jin more than four hours to find two supply boxes.
Xiao Jin felt a sense of disappointment; she had made a fortune in the abandoned building. She had found more than a dozen small supply boxes, and that was after searching only three floors.
However, due to the previous battle with the Ghost-faced Moth, Xiao Jin abandoned the idea of continuing to search the remaining areas and chose to leave immediately.
After all, she had made quite a commotion back then, and other mutated animals might have come looking for her. Some players probably also noticed the building's movements. To avoid trouble, Xiao Jin chose to abandon the place.
and……
Xiao Jin had also suspected that with such abundant resources inside the abandoned building, a single Ghostface Moth might not be enough. There might be something even more troublesome in the upper levels.
It'll probably be quite lively there afterward, but Xiao Jin prefers peace and quiet, so she won't join in the excitement!
As it approached 7 p.m., the next round of disaster reports began on time.
[Ding—Disaster Type: Freezing Rain. Selected areas (A, B). Ten-minute countdown begins. Players on the disaster map, please leave areas A and B as soon as possible.]
[Ding—The location of the safe house has been refreshed. Please click on the map to view it.]
Xiao Jin was lucky this time; her area, F, wasn't on the list. Opening the map, Xiao Jin checked the directions and headed towards the nearest safe house.
The terrain of area F is also very different from that of area D. The original plains have turned into an endless desert, which seems to be another large map.
The desert presented considerable obstacles, and Xiao Jin reached the safe house a little later than she had anticipated.
But when she saw the safe houses, she was stunned, because the safe houses that the system had generated this time were actually small tents.
From a distance, the tent didn't look very big, but when Xiao Jin lifted one of the lids and opened it, the inside was even smaller than she had imagined. A red patterned carpet was laid at the bottom, on which was a bed about one meter wide, and next to it was a small low table with an old-fashioned kerosene lamp on the corner.
And most importantly, the resource boxes in this room are gone!
Xiao Jin turned her head slightly to look in the other direction.
There are three tents in total. At this moment, apart from the one in front of Xiao Jin, the other two tents are lit up, and there are footprints on the sand at the tent entrances.
It's obvious that the people who arrived here first took the supply boxes from the tent!
Xiao Jin wasn't angry. If it were her, she probably would have done the same!
Her movements were not quiet, and by this time the people in the other two tents must have also noticed that Xiao Jin had arrived.
The three tents were arranged in a triangle. Suddenly, the zipper of the tent to Xiao Jin's left was pulled open, and a tall figure emerged from it.
Seeing this, Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Killing is not allowed inside the safe house, but once you leave the tent, killing other players comes without any consequences! This guy is pretty bold; he's not afraid to kill and steal treasure.
But when Xiao Jin saw the person in front of her clearly, she realized that it wasn't that he was bold, but that he was confident.
The man before me was nearly 1.9 meters tall, his upright figure standing like a mountain, exuding an undeniable presence. His face was exceptionally resolute, and a neat buzz cut gleamed healthily in the darkness.
His muscles were clearly defined, taut and full of power. Whenever he moved, those bulging muscles seemed to leap up like living things, displaying amazing explosive power and control.
With broad shoulders and long legs, every step he took was extremely steady.
The moment Xiao Jin met his gaze, it was as if she had seen the fiercest lion in the dark forest. The other man's pupils flashed with arrogance and wildness, and she felt as if she were being targeted by a top hunter.
Heh~ This looks like it's not something to mess with!
In particular, Xiao Jin was very familiar with the material of the vest inside the other party's field uniform, as it seemed somewhat similar to his own scale armor protective suit. Moreover, ordinary protective clothing does not have the function of customizing its appearance.
At the same time, Chu Yuan was also observing Xiao Jin.
His face is youthful, making him look very young, probably only recently turned 18. However, his eyes and demeanor betray a different story. He exudes a strong aura of menace, and his gaze is mature beyond his years—he's no ordinary person!
Chu Yuan muttered to himself, "Could he be a fellow professional? I've heard that in some countries, kids start 'training' at the age of fourteen or fifteen. When I first ventured out into the world, I was even younger than this kid!"
but……
Chu Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up. With looks like that, is the place where he 'works' respectable?
Xiao Jin was unaware of Chu Yuan's inner thoughts. They exchanged a glance, neither wanting to offend the other. Xiao Jin mainly felt it wasn't worth it; fighting would be exhausting and would deplete both their energy and resources, and the person hiding in the tent next to them was still unknown.
The two understood each other implicitly; neither wanted to be the mantis, so they nodded to each other.
"Chu Yuan".
"Xiao Jin".
Upon hearing the other person's name, Xiao Jin's eyes flickered slightly, as if the name sounded familiar. However, after thinking for a long time, she couldn't remember it and had to put it aside for the time being.
Xiao Jin then lifted the tent flap and went inside to pack her things. She first lit the kerosene lamp on the table, glanced at the progress bar, and saw that it was enough to last until dawn.
There was also a piece of white paper on the table, with the familiar safe house precautions.
Not long after, when Xiao Jin came out again, she saw that Chu Yuan had moved the table from inside the tent to the outside and placed an alcohol stove on top.
