Long Teng covered his face and pouted: "I can follow others and I will definitely not get lost."
The old man ignored him and looked at Maine: "There are several people in your team now. If there is room, take him. It's a good thing I met you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find someone who can control this kid."
He knew his grandson very well. Even if they became teammates, he would probably always be thinking about sparring and fighting. Maine was the only one of his peers who had skills similar to Long Teng.
Maine shook his head: "No, he always wants to fight and mess things up."
The old man grabbed Long Teng's ear and said, "Quick, swear to him that you will never pick a fight with anyone during the league."
"Grandpa, let go!" Long Teng leaned towards the old man's neck to prevent his ears from being pulled, "There are so many opponents in the league, there will definitely be a fight!"
The old man glared at him and said, "If you start a fight, the rest of them will gang up on you and you won't even get a permit to enter the city."
Xie Sen then spoke up and asked Maine, "How many members can we confirm?"
Maine went to ask Bai Jiao, but he didn't know whether he had found someone else, so he decided to confirm it first.
"Three." Maine said.
Xie Sen's eyes lit up: "Did Bai Jiao agree?"
Maine nodded, and Xie Sen said, "Why not let Long Teng join our team? There will be exactly four of us."
If the protagonist and the villain boss team up and fight together, they may develop a friendship and may not stand on opposite sides in the future.
And he felt that the more friends Maine made, the less likely he would turn evil.
Maine looked at him: "Do you want him to join?"
Xie Sen smiled and said, "We are neighbors. He is also very strong. Don't you want to win the championship? He is a great help."
When Xie Sen said this, he suddenly realized that if Long Teng joined, wouldn't his teammates be the "strongest combination" mentioned on the forum?
Suddenly, he felt a lot of pressure and had to improve his abilities faster!
Is it because he wants to win the championship? Maine glanced at Xie Sen and said to Long Teng, "You can join, but you have to listen to me and you can't fight privately."
Long Teng's baby face puffed up, and he was obviously not satisfied. The old man opened his palm and pinched it, and the puffy cheeks disappeared instantly, and his mouth was forced to pout. The old man urged: "Hurry up and agree."
The old man didn't remove his hand. Long Teng said in a vague voice: "I agree, I agree, Grandpa, let go!"
The old man let go of his hand and said with a smile: "That's great, please take good care of Xiao Teng when the time comes."
Having achieved his goal, the old man happily grabbed Long Teng and said goodbye, leaving the apartment.
Xie Sen knew that the first thing Maine did when he came back every day was to take a shower. Now that he had wasted quite a bit of time, he said to Maine, "I'm going to make dinner. You take a shower first."
Maine glanced at him and walked towards the bedroom. Xie Sen received the energy 1 prompt and smiled at his back.
While eating, Xie Sen thought of what his uncle said and asked Maine, "The illegal things you mentioned that need to be kept secret, are you referring to the city?"
The matter was already clear, and there was no need to hide it any longer. Maine nodded: "Yes."
Xie Sen was puzzled: "Didn't they say that you can't leave the city without a permit? How did you get out?"
"I'm from the Department of Information Science."
Xie Sen suddenly realized: "You tampered with your information and made a fake permit to leave the city?"
"Yes, I plan to destroy the fake one after the league and get the permission to leave the city. I can make sure that no trace is left." Maine glanced at Xie Sen, "If it is discovered, you will also be implicated if you do not report it."
Xie Sen smiled, knowing that he didn't do what he thought was bad, and felt relieved: "So you kept saying it was a secret?"
"Well," Maine said, "The early exposure was an accident. I didn't expect Long Teng's grandfather to be able to smell the source of the blood. He is very powerful."
Xie Sen nodded in agreement and asked curiously, "Why did you leave the city? The master said that the blood on your body is from a long-haired wild boar beast. Are you in danger?"
"No, I went out of town just to hunt. Hunting can improve my skills, and I can sell the beasts I hunt for money."
"That's amazing," Xie Sen exclaimed. No wonder he was as strong as Long Teng. It turned out that he was always training. "Are you short of money?"
"We are not in short supply at the moment, we are just preparing in advance," Maine did not hide anything, "If there is a giant lion beast on the market, I cannot buy it without money. If I want to find it myself, I will also need enough money."
Xie Sen looked at his flawless face and admired him greatly. He was older than Maine at the end of the world, but he did not live as planned as Maine.
"You're so awesome." He sighed again and couldn't help but feel distressed. His peers who were looking for contracted beasts probably had the help of their relatives, but he only relied on himself.
Maine chuckled and looked at him without saying anything. Xie Sen thought about the league: "Should our teammates get to know each other in advance and make some plans?"
"No need." Maine said without hesitation.
In the evening, after Xie Sen finished training Chili Tree, he took a shower and sat on the bed to browse the forum. There were many posts recruiting teammates on the forum, and strategy posts were always at the top.
He clicked in and saw that the poster had not updated the post, so he looked through the comments but didn't get any useful information.
In the next few days, Xie Sen worked very actively every day. Except for lunch break, he was busy almost all the time. Sometimes he would even work overtime for an hour on his own initiative.
Sun Mao praised him highly and said he would apply to the Human Resources Department to allow him to become a regular employee ahead of schedule.
Xie Sen just wanted energy, and he didn't expect to get such a pleasant surprise. He was very happy. Although things had not been finalized yet, he still thanked Sun Mao very sincerely.
Soon it was his weekend off. After breakfast, he went straight to the supermarket, bought a lot of children's toys and daily necessities, and then went to the welfare home.
The welfare home he went to was the largest one, and when he got there he was warmly welcomed, given gifts, and then played games with the children until lunchtime.
He returned to the shuttle and instantly collapsed. The children were so energetic. However, the rewards were huge. In just the morning, he gained more than thirty energy points.
He slept for an hour on the shuttle before having lunch. After lunch, he rested for a while, went to the supermarket to buy 50 kilograms of meat and some daily necessities, and headed to the slums.
Xie Sen handed the meat to a dark-skinned man, who took it with a smile, turned around and grumbled to himself in a mocking tone: "You must be a fool, right? You have too much money and nothing to do."
Xie Sen's smile froze. The people in the queue behind him urged him, so he hurriedly continued to distribute things.
The process of giving away money was very smooth, but gaining energy was not so smooth. It was completely different from the welfare home. There were many people who thought like the black man.
Fortunately, not everyone thought that way. Some people were grateful and praised him as a good boy. Some even actively asked him if he had a partner and wanted to match him up with someone.
After Xie Sen delivered the items, he quickly returned to the shuttle and drove it back to the apartment. Although the harvest in the slums was not great, the total amount of energy he harvested in one day set a new record, a total of more than fifty.
It’s almost one hundred, and I can activate the second plant!
Xie Sen returned to his apartment and decided to temporarily abandon the slums. He searched all the welfare homes in Star City, a total of five, and made a table based on the distance.
The birth rate of infants on Brandt Star is declining year by year. Children are very precious. Most of these children in the welfare home were sent there because of sudden changes in their families.
The staff at the welfare home told him that many couples apply for adoption every day, and the children rarely stay in the welfare home for more than a month.
If the adoption procedures were not extremely strict, the welfare home probably wouldn't have a single child.
On the second day of rest, he went to two welfare homes, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The one he visited in the morning was very small, with only six children. After he gave them gifts, he played with them for the whole morning. The children were very reluctant to leave when he left.
He found that the children gave back energy not because of the gifts, but because he played with them.
There were thirteen children in the house he visited in the afternoon. He was playing games with them when he suddenly felt a warm sensation in his head and a green hardcover book appeared in his mind.
The pages of the book slowly unfolded, and green leaves gradually emerged above the blank second page, while countless slender roots appeared below.
[Congratulations, Master, Activate Plant: Potato. Each fruit requires one energy. The density is up to you.]
Xie Sen's eyes lit up instantly and he swallowed silently, potatoes!
"Brother Xiao Xie, I caught you!" He came to his senses after someone hugged his legs. He saw a little boy lifting the cloth over his eyes, tilting his head back and laughing happily.
"Well, my brother will come to catch you next time, so go and hide."
Xie Sen played with them for the whole afternoon. After deducting the one hundred energy points spent on activating the potatoes, he still had nine energy points left.
He returned to his apartment and couldn't wait to go to the room to summon potatoes. Since the potatoes grow at the roots, the summoned potatoes were complete, including the roots.
The two plants he had activated in the apocalypse were red peppers and potatoes, and he was very familiar with their abilities.
The branches of potatoes cannot shrink, but the roots can, but they have poor toughness and are not aggressive, just like the branches of pepper trees.
When activating the potato, the keyword given by the system is 'density'! This means that its ability is related to density.
I don't know if potatoes have changed since the end of the world? Xie Sen thought about it, hesitated for a moment, looked at the word "exchange", selected the quantity one, and exchanged one energy for a potato.
Suddenly, a palm-sized yellow potato appeared at the root of the potato. He reached out and held it, feeling the weight, and then kept giving orders in his mind to change the density of the potato from high to low.
As the density decreased, the potatoes grew larger. He dragged them with his hands from time to time, but the total weight of the potatoes remained the same.
He continued to give orders, causing the density to gradually increase. The potatoes became smaller and smaller, until they were finally the size of marbles. He felt the weight and thought that if he launched it with force, the attack power would be quite good.
After making sure that the potato had not changed and understanding its training direction, Xie Sen decided to start training after dinner. He looked at the potato, thought about it, let it grow to twice its original size, and then picked it.
As long as the potato is connected to the roots, it will change according to his instructions, but if the connection with the roots is severed, it will not change.
The taste of potatoes will become lighter as they grow bigger, but it is good to have vegetables to eat, and he is not pursuing perfect taste.
The taste won’t be bad even if it is diluted by half. A potato this big can make a big plate of stir-fried potatoes.
Maine returned to the apartment and smelled an unprecedented fragrance as soon as he opened the door. He entered the room and was about to close the door. He put one hand against the door, stretched his neck to look inside the room, and swallowed his saliva: "It smells good. What delicious food are you making?"
