"Damn it, I'm starving to death. All the water outside is polluted. If I drink it, I'll either get a stomachache or die half a life."
When will this awful weather finally rain?! I can't stand it anymore!
"Ouch! My mouth hurts so much..." Another man with a half-tattoo on his arm groaned as he touched the scars of oral ulcers on his lips.
The three people wanted to continue talking when they suddenly saw four strangers and two black and white pandas appear on the stairs, watching them with curious expressions.
Seeing the four people dressed in clean and tidy clothes, with fair and clean faces, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women and cleanliness left the three of them in awe.
Now that the natural disaster has struck for more than nine months, supplies and water resources are becoming increasingly scarce. How have these people managed to stay so clean?
Seeing the four of them was like witnessing a peaceful and prosperous era. The three of them compared themselves to them and realized that the difference between them was like heaven and earth.
When they saw one of the people come in carrying a bulging backpack, all three of them lit up.
These four are definitely big spenders! Licking their sore lips and dry throats, each of them was thinking about how to get food.
As Junjue led Wan'er up to the second floor, a dark glint flashed in his eyes when he saw the three people in the hall.
Using his psychic abilities to survey the entire building, he discovered that apart from the second floor where there were relatively few people, there were many more people on the third floor and above.
They discovered an empty room nearby and wanted to take Wan'er and her two subordinates there, but they were stopped by the other party.
“You can’t stay in that room. There’s already a couple staying there. They just went out to look for supplies.”
"Wan'er, this building is already occupied. What do you think? I'll listen to whatever you say," Junjue asked.
Seeing the three grumpy old men, Wan'er's lips curled into a slight smile, and she couldn't help but say:
"Since someone's staying in the room, let's just grab something to eat here!"
"Alright!" Junjue replied, then said to the people beside him:
"You don't mind if we stay here for a while, do you?"
"Waaah!"
"Woo woo~" The two national treasures looked at the strangers warily.
"I don't mind, how could I mind!" the bespectacled man quickly replied.
Junjue patted the two wary national treasures and said, "Little Black, Little White, you two go to sleep first."
The two little ones were already fed, but we avoided feeding them in front of humans when we encountered them.
These guys now weigh seventy or eighty pounds and no longer need to be breastfed. They are offspring of mutated animals and have awakened their own special abilities. They are also growing incredibly fast, changing almost every day.
"Meow~"
"Woo woo~" Little Black and Little White can already understand human speech. They rubbed against their male owner's hand and then went to lie down in the corner.
Junjue took out four bottles of water and four individually wrapped loaves of bread from his backpack and handed them to Wan'er, Yue Chi, and Yue Ying.
The four of them went to the sofa on the other side and began to eat slowly.
The three men standing nearby swallowed hard, and the tall, tattooed man couldn't resist any longer. He walked over to Junjue and asked:
"Brother, could you give us some water? The three of us haven't had any water for over half a month, you can tell by looking at our mouths."
The Water Lord had plenty, but it was impossible to give them all directly, so he finished the bread in his hand and asked in a cool tone:
"I still have some water and food, but what can you trade with me?"
Food is scarce these days, and I can't give it to you for free.
"Um, we only have dog food and cat food left. Can we exchange them with you?" the tattooed man asked somewhat embarrassedly.
"I have a dozen or so pretty red crystals here. I took them to collect because I thought they looked nice when other people were killing monsters."
"Don't girls like sparkly things? Just give me a bottle of water and a loaf of bread, and I can give you everything." The bespectacled man endured the pain in his mouth and tried to ask.
He was so thirsty that he felt his body getting weaker and weaker if he didn't drink water. How could he survive in this chaotic world?
"Yes, yes, we not only have dog food and cat food, but also some pretty red crystals." The irritable man finished speaking and looked at the other person expectantly.
He knew the other party was not someone to be trifled with. Looking at someone as clean and upright as Sheng Shi, it was impossible for them to be so clean without absolute strength.
Crystals? Those must be the red crystal cores of the mutated animals!
This thing, along with zombie crystal cores, will be the currency in the post-apocalyptic world, and it can also enhance superpowers without any side effects. It couldn't be better.
Hearing this, Junjue smiled and said, "Forget about cat food and dog food. My girlfriend really likes this. How many red crystals do you have? Take them out and I'll exchange them for you."
Wan'er was filled with question marks.
When did she start liking those disgusting things?
Those things are really beautiful, but they were dug out of the heads of mutated animals.
Thinking about how the Lord would dig out the red crystal from the head of every mutated animal he killed.
He must have some purpose in doing this!
So he didn't say much and quietly ate the bread in his hand.
Yuechi and Yueying were completely baffled by their teammates' actions, so they could only watch the spectacle while quietly eating.
The three were thrilled to hear that the thing could actually be exchanged for items.
"Great! I only thought it looked nice at first, I never thought it would actually be able to be exchanged for food," the irritable man said.
"Luckily I listened to the guy with glasses, otherwise I wouldn't even have water to drink today," the tattooed man said thankfully.
"Brother, wait here, we'll go get the items for you to exchange." After saying that, the bespectacled man and two other tall men ran back to their room.
Not long after, someone ran out, holding six or seven red crystals, and handed them to the Duke.
Junjue took the crystal core and said to the three people, "Is that room yours?"
"Yeah! What are your thoughts, brother?" the hot-tempered man asked, his eyes gleaming.
“Yes, there are some. How about you give me your rooms and I'll give you more water and food?” Junjue said, patting his backpack.
Upon hearing Junjue's words, the three exchanged a glance and said in unison:
"no problem."
What's the use of rooms? They're only useful if there's food! Without water, they'll die of thirst or be forced to go into polluted water and lose half their lives.
"Since you've all agreed, come and collect your food!"
After Junjue finished speaking, he waited for the three people to come over and handed each of them two bottles of water (2000 ml each), five loaves of bread, and a self-heating meal.
"Wow, bro, you're really rich! You even have self-heating meals, that's great!" The grumpy man said, dumbfounded, after receiving the food.
"Damn, I haven't eaten anything this fancy in months. To actually get self-heating rice today is like a dream," the tattooed man said in shock.
"Thank you, these things are really good, especially in these chaotic times." The bespectacled man swallowed and thanked him.
"No need to thank me. You exchanged things for food, right?" the Duke said nonchalantly.
