Just after throwing away the fruit peel, Hua Xinrui sent her a private message: "Mianmian, there's someone in the channel named Gu Jianguo who keeps saying bad things about you. Do you want to go check him out?"
Gu Jianguo? That scumbag father who cheated on his wife?
Gu Mian felt a little disgusted, but she still took a look.
Gu Jianguo: "Gu Mian, come out here! You eat and drink well every day, but you don't care about your own father and brother."
"If I'd known you were such a heartless creature, I should have strangled you the moment you were born!"
"Who is Gu Mian? How can she not even care about her own father? This person is really awful."
Zhu Zhixin: "Gu Mian, your biological father is looking for you. Why don't you hurry up and bring him to your raft?"
Wang Xuanyi: "How vicious this person is! He doesn't even care about his own family, unlike me, who brought my family over a long time ago."
Gu Junjie: "Gu Mian, you brat, you dare to approve my team application? Believe me or not, I'll beat you to death!"
Hua Xinrui: "Are we a family? What kind of family talks like that?"
"That's right. What kind of father or brother would talk like that? If it were me, I wouldn't agree to team up either. Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?"
There's no shortage of followers in this world, but there's also no shortage of people with brains.
Gu Mian just watched expressionlessly, then silently blocked all the bandwagoners.
She didn't argue with them in the chat channel; she didn't want to waste any energy on unimportant people.
...
[Random Quest: Eliminate the Corruptors.]
A large number of polluters have suddenly appeared on an unknown island. Players are now being recruited to enter the island and eliminate the polluters.
Players who participate in the mission to eliminate the polluters will receive 1 Silver Treasure Chest; there is no penalty for failing the mission.
During the mission, players cannot attack each other.
Players who wish to participate can simply press the button below to register; they will be teleported in three minutes.
Gu Mian had just taken out his advanced fishing rod to fish for the box when he heard the system issue a random task.
After carefully listening to the task details, I signed up without hesitation.
As long as you participate in the mission, even if you just sit around doing nothing, you can still get a silver treasure chest.
With such a great opportunity, who wouldn't participate?
Sure enough, the registration limit was reached in less than a minute, and the registration button disappeared immediately.
"Wuhu~ This must be the first group task issued by the system."
"I wonder what's inside the silver treasure chest? It would be best if it contained a high-attack weapon."
"Players can't attack each other during the mission, that's great! Now I can sign up without worry!"
"Tch, I was hoping to try killing players and see if I'd drop any equipment, but that's out of the question now."
"Wow, you guys are so fast! The registration slots were filled in less than a minute. Did you sign up without even thinking about it?"
"What's there to think about? Just get started."
The chat channel was buzzing with discussion about the mission, and Hua Xinrui immediately sent a private message to Gu Mian.
Hua Xinrui: "Mianmian, did you successfully register? Ugh, so annoying! I just thought about it for a second, and the system says the registration is full!"
In the group chat of three, Xu Kun said: "Registration successful. It takes my fast hands to get this done."
Jiang Bai: "How long have you been single? 25 years of hand speed?"
Xu Kun: "Hey, watch your mouth!"
Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye. A white light enveloped Gu Mian, and before her eyes could see anything, she found herself on an unfamiliar island.
Wow, there are so many people!
"Where are the polluters? I'm going to kill them."
"Xiaoyu, are you here?"
Surrounded by a noisy crowd, Gu Mian almost developed social anxiety at first glance.
There are just too many people!
[System: A polluter has appeared. Players are requested to eliminate it as soon as possible.]
Swish, swish, swish!
A large group of polluters suddenly appeared on the other side, looking like monsters that suddenly spawn in a game.
"Charge! The target is the silver treasure chest!"
"It really feels like playing a video game, where monsters suddenly spawn."
...
A group of players, armed with various weapons such as axes, machetes, and hoes, charged towards the polluter.
In less than three minutes, the polluters were completely eliminated.
"What? This task is that easy to complete?"
"I just swung the hoe once, and all the polluters were wiped out. This mission is so easy!"
"Damn it! I got scratched! My contamination level is now 10!"
"Strange, why aren't these polluters preparing purification agents?"
Some speculated: "It must be during a quest, so no items will drop, right?"
"Wasn't the task completed? Why hasn't the system notified me yet?"
[System: The second wave of polluters has appeared. Players are requested to eliminate them as soon as possible.]
As soon as the system notification sound ended, twice as many polluters appeared on the spot as before.
This wave of polluters caught the players completely off guard. Many players who did not leave their original positions were immediately surrounded and attacked by the polluters. Their pollution level rose to 100 at an extremely fast speed, and they were then directly transformed into new polluters.
"Damn it! My contamination level is almost 80! Help me!"
The person who spoke happened to be next to Gu Mian. Gu Mian had just finished off the polluter she was fighting with and helped him out.
The man, whose arm had been scratched by the contaminated creature, was now free and quickly turned back to thank Gu Mian, saying, "Thank you! Thank you!"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw that the person who saved him was a young girl, and he immediately became a little embarrassed: "Miss, you're amazing! If you hadn't saved me, I probably would have been transformed into these things too!"
Gu Mian nodded politely to him. Just then, another polluter surrounded her and she quickly swung her knife to slash at it.
