Lobi Town Start 4
Yes, how could she forget her dear system.
Although she is not a rich woman, she is kind-hearted and good at talking. As long as she is sincere and says a few nice words, the system will definitely let her draw a pet with the superpower of food!
Chu Li thought about it and immediately called the system in her mind. A few seconds later, the familiar lavender card drawing interface floated before her eyes.
She took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, made a praying gesture, and began to mutter something.
May the Buddha or the gods bless her to succeed. She is willing to exchange You Chengze's ten years of singleness for a rare spiritual pet card, as long as it can help the starving refugees fill their stomachs quickly!
Just as Chu Li finished her prayer in her heart, a golden halo suddenly fell into her eyes, flickering and making it difficult to look away.
The next moment, a cold system prompt sounded—
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining a rare alpaca card and unlocking the magic food superpower! ]
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining a rare Brown Bear card and unlocking farming super powers!]
Looking at the lines of words floating in front of his eyes, Chu Li almost thought he was seeing things and rubbed his eyes hard.
It’s true!
This is not a dream!
She actually drew a new pet card!
Chu Li was filled with sorrow and tears. It was really unworthy of her long-time flattery system, and it was also unworthy of You Chengze paying the price of being single for ten years.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly took the two cards and waved them in the air.
The silvery light dissipated.
A snow-white alpaca slowly emerged, munching on green grass. As if sensing Chu Li's gaze, it swallowed its food and strode towards her. Following closely behind was a brown bear, its bulky figure appearing both adorable and comical as it ran.
Chu Li's heart melted at the sight of the two new pets. She couldn't help but lean over, slightly bent down, and patted the heads of the two pets lovingly.
Then, she focused her attention on the docile alpaca and whispered, "These refugees haven't eaten for a long time. I'd like Xiaoguai to use his superpowers to make some easily digestible food so they can escape their suffering sooner."
Hearing the sound, the alpaca raised its head towards the sky, opened its mouth, and let out a very joyful cry from its throat, as if responding to Chu Li's words in its own way.
The next moment, a light green halo emerged from above the alpaca's head.
The alpaca blinked its eyes and tilted its head slightly, and a bowl of steaming pumpkin porridge appeared in Chu Li's hand, with a fragrant aroma.
Chu Li, who was the first to witness this, was slightly surprised. It was different being in another world. He could turn food into something through the air. His ability was so powerful that he didn't have to worry about going hungry when he went out in the future.
Just as he was feeling emotional, Chu Li suddenly heard a burst of rapid and intense footsteps behind him.
Before she could react, she saw groups of refugees suddenly surrounding her like a pack of wolves out of control.
Their eyes were burning and greedy, and their paper-pale faces were filled with ferocity and cruelty.
Like a thorn in the back.
Following his gaze, Chu Li immediately understood that their target was the bowl of porridge in his hand, and he was about to speak to maintain public order.
Before he could open his mouth, the group of refugees seemed to have turned on a switch and rushed towards Chu Li frantically.
Chu Li was startled and stepped back repeatedly. She didn't know who pushed her in panic. She felt the pumpkin porridge in her hand was snatched away, and then she lost her balance and fell to the ground in an instant.
Her back collided with the broken ground, and the piercing pain made it difficult for her to suppress her voice.
She tried to hold herself together, trying to stop the frantic scramble, but just as she opened her mouth, someone in the crowd slapped her mercilessly. The next second, several hands rushed over to tug at her clothes, trying to see if there was any extra food within the thin garments.
Perhaps because they were too disappointed after failing, the group of people roared in anger, and then several of them started punching and kicking Chu Li.
The fists rained down on her body, and Chu Li gasped.
She had no power to resist, and could only instinctively raise her hands to protect her head. Her ears, slightly covered, were filled with the rustling of blows and the urgent cries of her furry sons.
In an instant, a painful and shrill sound resounded through the sky, and the fists that were falling on him continuously stopped.
Chu Li was surprised.
She slowly raised her head from her arms in embarrassment, and saw You Chengze, who always remained indifferent, standing not far from her.
At this moment, the man had a pale and thin face and cold eyes. He used some strength with his left hand to restrain the refugee who took the lead.
Seeing the man struggling, You Chengze pressed down hard again. The refugee felt pain, his shoulders trembled, and he begged for mercy repeatedly.
At this moment, You Chengze was completely different from his usual frail appearance.
Chu Li's heart stagnated slightly when he saw this, and suddenly a warm feeling surged up.
"Are you allowed to start?"
You Chengze's voice was extremely intimidating.
The group of refugees who wanted to continue the attack were frightened and gave up the idea. They looked at You Chengze, the culprit, with gritted teeth.
You Chengze's gaze swept coldly over the group of refugees, and after a moment, it naturally fell on Mu Yu who had been standing in the corner watching.
The man smiled contemptuously and slowly said in the direction of Mu Yu, "If you want to live, keep these people in check."
The man with a sick look on his face at this moment was extremely oppressive.
After he finished speaking, a small knife appeared in his slender hands. The knife was sharp and razor-sharp. He wielded it nimbly at his fingertips. If he wasn't careful, it could kill the refugees nearby.
In an instant, Mu Yu's face turned embarrassed and his eyes were filled with panic.
She involuntarily took a few steps back, showing a hint of timidity, and then she spoke with difficulty, asking the refugees to disperse.
This group of refugees was filled with resentment. They glared at You Chengze fiercely, gritting their teeth, almost infuriated.
Having suffered from hunger for too long, they had long lost their rationality, but the one who spoke at this moment was Mu Yu, the next mayor, so they did not dare to disobey and could only obey his orders and stop.
The dark shadow overlapping Chu Li dissipated, and the slanting sunlight fell on her.
Only then did Chu Li get a chance to catch his breath.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
The next second, several spirit pets spread their short legs and fluttered towards her.
Ragdoll cats are even worse.
It opened its mouth and meowed a few times, its throat gurgling non-stop. In an instant, a pale beam of light enveloped her.
Chu Li was stunned for a moment, and felt a warm current surging through his body. The red marks from being kicked just now suddenly disappeared, and the unspeakable pain also disappeared.
What a wonderful feeling.
Is this the greatness of pet superpowers?
Chu Li was shocked.
Suddenly, a hand holding a square handkerchief appeared before her eyes, and then a voice came from above her head: "It's dirty, wipe it off."
Chu Li looked in the direction of the sound and was caught off guard by You Chengze's somewhat impatient face.
If you look closely, it seems like there is some disgust in it.
Chu Li curled his lips and was about to complain a few words, but suddenly he remembered how he had just stood up to save him.
Forget it, considering that he still has some conscience and knows to save me, I will not bother with him for now.
Chu Li thanked him, took the handkerchief and wiped his face.
Having not yet recovered from his previous panic, Chu Li rubbed the ragdoll cat that was treating him soothingly, stood up, and looked at the group of refugees who were staring at him eagerly and thirstily.
She couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he stared at her.
Finally, she let out a heavy breath of helplessness.
Since she has already agreed to help, she will naturally not be a person who goes back on her word.
As she thought about it, her gaze fell on the alpaca with red eyes.
Chu Li approached the alpaca affectionately and comforted it a few times, which made the alpaca let down its guard.
The next moment, the alpaca rubbed against Chu Li, and the light reappeared. Bowl after bowl of pumpkin porridge appeared in the hands of each refugee.
The scorching heat reached everyone's palms, and only then did they realize what they were holding. Their pupils widened slightly, their thin, sickly faces filled with surprise. Suddenly, they came to their senses and began to drink from their bowls, fearing that the food would disappear like it had just disappeared.
The sounds of swallowing and contentment overlapped and echoed in the air. Chu Li looked at their happy faces and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"sorry."
Suddenly, a voice of apology interrupted her thoughts.
Chu Li looked in the direction of the sound.
Mu Yu was standing beside her, holding a little hamster. The girl's pale face no longer had the fierceness just now, only a flushed face.
Obvious apology and shame.
"I should have stopped them in time..."
Mu Yu's voice gradually became smaller, and her beautiful eyes were wandering. If you looked closely, you could still detect the panic and shame in her behavior.
Chu Li reached out and patted her shoulder, comforting her while asking, "You didn't mean it, don't think too much. But... now that the matter has been resolved, can you let me see the mayor?"
Chu Li's words did not receive an immediate response from Mu Yu.
The girl looked up at her, shook her head, and said after a long while, "It's not resolved yet."
Chu Li was puzzled and was about to ask the reason.
"The long-term famine has affected our lives. Simply providing food is not a long-term solution." Mu Yu interrupted Chu Li's confusion and then cast his gaze on the group of spirit pets playing behind her. "You have so many spirit pets around you. Can you help me restore our home to its former state?"
Hearing this, Chu Li fell silent for a rare moment.
Mu Yu's words were indeed reasonable. She was not a resident of Lobi Town. Once she finished collecting chapters and left, the place would return to its original state.
She couldn't leave the alpaca here forever. If the spiritual pet was separated from its owner for a long time, its life would be in danger. Chu Li couldn't bear to do such a thing.
At present, we are only treating the symptoms and not the root cause. We must address the root cause of the problem - reclaiming farmland.
Although she drew out a brown bear with farming superpowers, she had no crops at hand at the moment, so even if she finished the work, the field would eventually be abandoned.
Vicious cycle.
Chu Li sighed heavily and couldn't help feeling a headache.
Where would she find crops?
