Chapter 60 Grandpa has become an adult!
After walking for another day and night, they finally arrived in Guangzhou. After entering the city, there were more infected people, and they took some effort to finally find the place to hold the supernatural exchange meeting.
The whole square was brightly lit, and from a distance it looked like a scene before the end of the world.
But once you get closer, you can see a circle of infected people on the periphery who are attracted by the lights and noises.
"Those infected people seem to be blocked by something?" Liu Xulun widened his eyes unconsciously.
There were clearly no fences or anything like that around the square, but the infected people lined up in a circle and tried desperately to squeeze in.
"Someone must have used special powers. Didn't you notice that the temperature gets lower as you get closer to the square?" Lou Su said.
Before I even entered, I saw people moving around inside. This scene was common before the end of the world, but now it seemed inexplicably frightening.
I can’t help but wonder, with so many people gathered together, what if someone gets infected?
"So, Brother Lou, what you mean is that someone has used supernatural powers to cover the entire square. There is no need for anyone to guard it, and these infected people can't get in?" While Yang Ling'er was speaking, she used wind blades to kill several infected people who were walking towards them.
"What kind of superpower is so awesome?" Liu Xulun exclaimed.
Ling Yao and Chu Xihen remained silent, because Ling Yao's [Dark Night Invasion] could also cover this extent.
It was not until they entered the square that they saw sporadic snowflakes floating in the air, which made Chu Xihen certain that the person who used supernatural powers to cover this place was a water-attributed supernatural being.
"Brother Chu, does this also mean that we have now entered the skill range of that psychic? If he wants to kill us, wouldn't it be easy?" Ling Yao asked Chu Xihen in a low voice.
"Not really. That psychic has to maintain this area for a long time to prevent the infected from breaking in. He won't have any extra mental energy to kill people. Besides, how can the psychic who comes here be slaughtered at will?" Chu Xihen felt a little cold, so he changed into a white down jacket from the mall.
As Lou Su and the others' supernatural power levels increase, their bodies become more resistant to heat and cold, and they can withstand such low temperatures by just wearing one piece of clothing.
"Welcome!" As soon as they reached the entrance, a sweet voice said to the five people.
The entrance is a small door that is only wide enough for one person to pass through, and the rest of the place is filled with human walls made up of infected people.
The first person in line was Liu Xulun. As soon as he entered the door, a pretty girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old stood next to him and handed him a small cake and a glass of red wine.
Liu Xulun: “!”
Is this a party? He took the gift from the little girl with a flattered look on his face.
"I hope you will gain something from this exchange meeting." The little girl said and turned around to receive the next person's entrance gift.
Although each person only has one portion, in this apocalypse where even a sip of water requires mall points to be redeemed, being able to get things like cake and red wine for free is like pie in the sky.
"Thank you, little sister, you are so beautiful." Yang Ling'er, who was second in line, took the things with both hands and praised with a smile.
"Sister, you are beautiful too!" the little girl replied cheerfully.
The next one was Ling Yao. He rubbed his hands and walked forward. The little girl smiled and said to him after seeing him: "Little brother, you are still underage, right? I'll get you a glass of orange juice."
These words did not cause much harm to Ling Yao, but they were extremely insulting!
"Master, you're an adult now! A real man should drink. Change the wine for me!" Ling Yao shouted.
The little girl was amused by him and quickly exchanged a glass of wine for him.
Lingyao was holding a small cake in one hand and a glass of wine in the other, smiling like a fool.
He was not in a hurry to eat or drink. He stood next to the little girl, wanting to wait for Lou Su and Chu Xihen to join him.
Because Chu Xihen's hands were icy cold, Lou Su pulled him into the door.
"No need for the cold wine. Two pieces of cake will do. Thank you." After Lou Su said this politely, he stuffed both of Chu Xihen's hands into his down jacket pockets and then took the cake handed to him by the girl.
"Are you cold, brother? Please go into the mall. There are rooms inside for you to rest." The little girl handed a room card to Chu Xihen with the room number on it.
Chu Xihen didn't want to take his hand out and stood there without moving. Lou Su stretched out two fingers, motioning the girl to let him hold the room card between her fingers.
The little girl did as she was told but her eyes were fixed on Chu Xihen.
Chu Xihen and Lou Su had walked a long way away, but she was still watching them with a hint of regret in her eyes.
Feeling that the little girl was still looking at him, Chu Xihen turned around and smiled at her.
He smiled so beautifully that everything around him paled in comparison, but the little girl turned her eyes away in panic, not daring to meet his gaze.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with her?" Lou Su found that Chu Xihen turned around to look deliberately.
Chu Xihen frowned and asked, "What do you think?"
"There's something wrong with this little cake, and those hanging lights around the square, these are all points. Is the person who organized this exchange meeting the richest man in the world?" Liu Xulun said.
Points nowadays are more valuable to human beings than the RMB before the end of the world. What are the concerns of the people who organized the exchange meeting by wasting points like this?
After Liu Xulun finished speaking, he quickly took a bite of the cake, as if he was afraid that the owner of this place would suddenly change his mind and ask him to return it.
"Look at what you have accomplished!" Yang Ling'er gave him a look of disdain, then poured half the wine in her glass into Liu Xulun's glass, freed one hand and started drinking.
Liu Xulun: “…”
Seeing that they had all started eating, Ling Yao didn't want to be outdone. She drank the wine in one gulp, then held the plate in both hands and started eating the cake. The spoon stuck on the cake was just for decoration.
"Did everyone who came in take the cake from that little girl?" Chu Xihen suddenly asked.
Hearing his words, the three people eating the cake were instantly struck by lightning.
"No way, Brother Chu, is this cake poisonous?" Ling Yao wanted to spit out the cake he had just eaten.
Chu Xihen shook his head. "No, what I meant was that I was the only one who didn't take the cake myself, so the little girl kept staring at me."
"Take the cake with your own hands?" Lou Su thought for a moment, "She seemed to touch my hand accidentally."
"It also touched mine." Ling Yao echoed from the side.
Liu Xulun and Yang Ling'er also nodded.
The girl was handing over the cake and the wine glass at the same time, so it was normal for her hand to be touched, and no one would suspect anything. But now that Chu Xihen said this, everyone felt that there was a problem.
Even if she delivers something to everyone, it's impossible for everyone to just touch her hand, right?
"So? What happens if hands are touched?" Ling Yao looked at her fingers that had just been touched by the little girl, and there was nothing unusual.
"These are all I've found for now. Skill cards are collected over there. Let's go and take a look." Chu Xihen said and walked towards the stall.
Yes, there are many people setting up stalls in the square, all buying and selling or exchanging cards.
There is a handling fee for selling skill cards in the trading mall. Now that everyone can trade face to face, there is no need to spend extra points, and both parties are happy.
Before arriving at the stall, Chu Xihen whispered to Lou Su, "Sell the skill card Ling Yao gave me, and transfer the points to Liu Xulun and the others."
Lou Su had the same idea. He had already chosen a wind-attribute skill, [Time Cutting]. Other wind-attribute skills were just experience cards to him. Of course, it would be more cost-effective to sell them in exchange for points.
