Chapter 41 Pay and Check-in



Seeing the four people getting closer, Xu Zhi directly activated the [Eye of Observation].

In an instant, the fog completely dissipated, and the figures of the four people were clearly visible to her.

There were three men and one woman. Two of the men looked to be in their forties, and one man and one woman were slightly younger, probably in their mid-twenties.

In addition, three of the four are extraordinary people. According to the color, the woman's attribute is [Heart], and the two men are [Blade].

The extraordinary flames in their bodies were not bright in color, and Xu Zhi naturally realized that this was a manifestation of the strength of their extraordinary abilities.

She had not been able to see these things before, but now she can. It seems that as she continues to improve her extraordinary abilities, the effect of [Eye of Insight] will continue to upgrade.

Three of the four are extraordinary people, and judging from some subtle interactions between them, they are probably very familiar with each other.

Is it good luck?

However, the clothes of the four people were not very clean and tidy, and after entering the old residential area, they walked around cautiously, discussed for a few words, and finally chose a building and walked in.

Xu Zhi frowned as he looked at him: "Are you planning to stay here temporarily?"

From the clothes of these people, it can be seen that they probably do not have a fixed residence, and the new extraordinary people in the early stage are not very powerful. The four of them have some passive abilities at most, which cannot help them survive in this increasingly dangerous city.

In other words, thanks to the four-person team, they were able to survive and come to the old residential area despite being displaced.

Here, all the slightly stronger mutant animals nearby have been cleared out. Every day before the three clansmen go out, they will successfully clear out the new mutant animals nearby. Over time, the area near the old residential area has become very safe, with only some weak mutant animals that the clansmen look down upon.

Xu Zhi knew that Shen Jinwen would hunt these relatively weak mutant animals. It can be said that the old residential area is now a very suitable place for new extraordinary people to slowly level up.

But this comfort was based on Xu Zhi's tacit consent, and these newly appeared people obviously did not have her "consent". She thought she had to negotiate with them.

Xu Zhi did not intend to expel the other party directly, because Xiaoyi's experience in the mountains gave her inspiration.

If those four people want to stay in the old residential area, of course they can, as long as they hand over the core to her.

But she can't do this alone, she has to drag Shen Jinwen along and let Shen Jinwen be a tool. After all, she is quite busy and doesn't have much time to manage these things. Isn't it just time to use a companion!

After recalling Xiao Zhen, who was the fastest, Xu Zhi went to Shen Jinwen's house.

Chen Jinwen goes out almost every morning, and the time of his return is uncertain. Xu Zhi always uses the intercom to contact him first to confirm that he is at home before going upstairs.

After informing Shen Jinwen that four outsiders had suddenly arrived in the community, Shen Jinwen looked at Xu Zhi and asked quietly, "What are you going to do?"

Xu Zhi blinked: "Huh? You don't have any plans?"

Shen Jinwen looked at her silently for two seconds, then smiled helplessly: "You just need to tell me what to do."

After spending some time together, she had already understood more or less what kind of person Xu Zhi was. The fact that he took the initiative to approach her about this matter meant that Xu Zhi had already had his own ideas.

Even this idea requires her cooperation, and she just needs to cooperate obediently.

This is not a bad thing. She is not good at thinking about complicated things anyway, and Xu Zhi is a reliable partner. There is no problem with division of labor and cooperation.

Shen Jinwen was not a fool. She could feel the changes in the area before and after Xu Zhi came. She was indebted to Xu Zhi for this, so she naturally kept it in mind.

"All right."

Seeing that Chen Jinwen was not cooperating, Xu Zhi had to give up his whim of playing around and started talking about business instead.

"I don't mind people staying here, as long as they don't cause trouble and pay a certain amount of cores as rent."

Shen Jinwen nodded and understood.

"So how much are you going to charge?"

Xu Zhi was also troubled by this. If she charged too much, not only would it scare people away, but the other party would not be able to pay at all. If she charged too little, she would not make much money.

After much deliberation, Xu Zhi decided: "How about this, for now, each person will pay one core per week, and then move in."

"But this is only a temporary price. Once their Transcendent level increases and they can hunt more cores, the price will also rise."

After Xu Zhi finished speaking, Shen Jinwen asked, "How can we ensure that they are willing?"

Hearing this, Xu Zhi smiled and shrugged, "They are voluntary and don't want to leave. The core they paid is more than just the right to live there."

"When their levels are low, this is the safest place and the most suitable place for low-level transcendents to level up. You should know this."

"When they grow up and have the ability to protect themselves, knowing that they can't leave this city and what dangers this city holds, they will understand that they stay here not because it's relatively safe, but because I'm here."

It's not that this place is safe, but that the area around her, Xu Zhi, is safe, and she herself will become the most powerful transcendent in this city and the person most worth making friends with.

When Xu Zhi said this, his words were filled with confidence and arrogance that he had never seen before. Shen Jinwen felt that the girl in front of her had changed a little, but she didn't know whether this change was good or bad, but it was not something she could control.

"good."

Shen Jinwen nodded.

It's the end of the world now, and the past ethics and morals are no longer applicable. Besides, Xu Zhi didn't force anyone to buy or sell, but it was a voluntary transaction, so no one could say anything to her.

"So let's go now?"

Shen Jinwen hesitated in her words. After all, there were four people on the other side, and their combat effectiveness was unknown.

Xu Zhi nodded: "Don't worry, my pet will be with us."

Hearing this, Shen Jinwen felt relieved.

As soon as the two walked out of the corridor, a white lightning came rushing towards them. When it approached Xu Zhi, it braked steadily and finally landed gently on the girl's shoulder.

Shen Jinwen looked surprised. He probably didn't expect that Xu Zhi would have another pet, and it was such a beautiful Saker Falcon.

Restraining his admiration for the Saker Falcon, Shen Jinwen looked at its modest size and asked, "Can it fight four alone?"

Xu Zhi nodded: "Xiao Zhen can kill those four people in less than three seconds."

"That's good."

They walked into the building chosen by the four people and followed Xiaozhen's instructions and came to the door of a room.

They probably chose a room with an open door in the same order.

Xu Zhi stood aside, so Shen Jinwen took the initiative to walk forward and knock on the door.

There was silence inside the door for a few seconds, and then a male voice emerged: "Who?!"

The voice was alert and sounded some distance away from the door.

Shen Jinwen said straight to the point: "We are the natives here and also extraordinary people. We want to discuss with you about your settlement here."
