Just as Shen Tangtang finished replying to Lin Daiyu’s message, she saw Jun Xiner running over from outside the yard.
Before he even got close, Jun Xiner's panicked voice came over, "Tangtang, did you see the chat room message today? There's a beast tide outside the city."
"Not yet." Shen Tangtang had been sitting in the yard roasting chestnuts for Baobao and Xiaoqi since she gave Lin Daiyu the picture. She hadn't looked at the messages in the chat room again, so naturally she had no idea what had just happened.
She tossed two freshly roasted chestnuts to Jun Xiner and then asked, "When did this happen? Why was there no sign of this beast tide outbreak?"
Jun Xiner happily took two roasted chestnuts as big as her fist and took a bite. The soft, sweet taste instantly captured her taste buds. No wonder Tangtang’s two little squirrels liked them.
Hehe, she likes it too. I wonder if I can ask Tangtang for some more to take home later.
Jun Xiner, gazing at Xiao Qi's resentful gaze, took another bite of the roasted chestnut before replying, "Just a dozen minutes ago, I was chatting with a classmate who was leaving the city today when I heard her screams and cries of alarm. The military has cordoned off the city within a 5-kilometer radius, and they've even posted quests in the redemption hall, summoning players to defend the city."
It takes Jun Xiner more than ten minutes to drive from home to the old house. It seems that she rushed to find her as soon as she received the message.
Shen Tangtang listened to her words patiently, then frowned slightly. As expected, mutant beasts are the most sensitive at any time. Now that radiation has begun to appear in the wild, these mutant beasts want to compete with humans for the territory of the safe city.
Perhaps the beast tide has just begun.
Shen Tangtang didn't say anything, Jun Xiner said again: "Tangtang, how about we team up and go out to have a look, hehe, this system just released the team function and I haven't tried it yet, I don't know what it's useful for."
"good."
Shen Tangtang responded straightforwardly. She also wanted to go out of the city to take a look. She couldn't stay in the city all the time without knowing any information.
Shen Tangtang put a few roasted chestnuts on the rack into the bamboo basket. Sensing the strong gaze beside her, she raised her head slightly and saw Jun Xiner still chewing the mutant chestnuts she gave her, but her eyes were looking at the bamboo basket in her hand.
“Here you go!”
"Huh? Really giving it to me? Hehe~ How can I be so embarrassed?" Jun Xiner happily accepted it. Under Bao's angry gaze, she decisively clicked the space button on her wristband. "Thank you, Tangtang. How did you know I like roasted chestnuts?"
Hehehe~, before she even opened her mouth, Tangtang gave it to her. It turned out that Tangtang loved her the most.
The corner of Shen Tangtang's mouth twitched slightly, and she took out a sack of raw chestnuts from the space, "I still have a lot of mutant chestnuts, you can take them back and roast them slowly."
"Wow... Tangtang, you are so good to me." Jun Xiner's eyes were blurred with tears. Why didn't she have the luck to come across such delicious chestnuts? She had also survived in the wild, but she had never seen a chestnut tree. Could it be that the chestnut trees in the first district were extinct?
Shen Tangtang didn't know that the chestnut trees in the first area were definitely not extinct. Anyway, she knew that Jun Xiner's luck was not very good. She was a spoiled young lady since childhood, so it was lucky that she could survive the wild.
Bao Bao went crazy: "Squeak, squeak, squeak..." [Frog Fun ~ Such a shameless two-legged beast, eating and taking at the same time, shamelessly stealing the mouse's food~]
"Thank you, Baobao. I knew that Baobao and Xiaoqi were the best." Jun Xiner didn't understand the squirrel's cry at all and thanked it happily.
Shen Tangtang understood the meaning of Baobao's squeaking, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. She rubbed Baobao and Xiaoqi's heads and put them in another bamboo basket. "Let's go! Let's go out and see how serious this beast tide is."
After breakfast this morning, the adults in the family went out to work. Now only Shen Tangtang was left at home. They told Butler Leng that there was no need to prepare lunch and left in the hovercraft that Jun Xiner had brought.
By the time they arrived outside the city, about an hour and a half had passed. Many players in the first district had heard the news and rushed over, making it a bit crowded standing on the city wall.
Fortunately, there were people from the military area around to maintain order, otherwise there would have been a fight if not for some bad-tempered players.
Some mercenary groups were also standing together, wearing uniform combat uniforms. Their aura was obviously much stronger than that of ordinary players. They were all quietly watching the riot in the distance, with eager expressions on their faces.
Shen Tangtang was pulled by Jun Xiner through the crowd, and before the people who were squeezed out had time to get angry, they saw the four bodyguards following the two of them, and their tempers instantly disappeared.
These four bodyguards are there to protect Jun Xiner. Even though she is a player, her fighting ability is not that good. He Yiyi is worried about her safety, so she has been sending people to follow her.
The two of them quickly climbed up the city wall and stood on it, looking towards the place where the sound came from.
Just one kilometer outside the city, thick smoke was billowing and all kinds of supernatural powers were emitted everywhere.
A mutant beetle as tall as a hill struggled to resist. The energy knife cut white scratches on its black back. The flesh ball under the black armor squirmed, and green liquid dripped onto the ground, making a sizzling sound.
This is a level 12 mutated black beetle with extremely high defense and strong combat power. It is definitely not something that an ordinary psychic can fight against.
Shen Tangtang was a little curious about who was fighting the mutant black beetle.
"Wow…"
"Hey, how disgusting! Where did this big guy come from? I haven't noticed it before. It's so scary! If I get touched by its venom, I'll be poisoned to death!"
"This is a bad mutation, right? Didn't they say they had dealt with it all? Why is it still there?"
"Oh my god, luckily I didn't leave the city with my neighbors today. I heard they are still trapped outside the city. They were forced into a cave by a mutant brown bear. Now they have to send people from the military to rescue them."
"This is too unlucky! Actually, we can ask the mercenaries to rescue them, but the reward will be higher."
"You don't understand, we..."
The people around were talking about things in a low voice, and from time to time a few words fell into Shen Tangtang's ears.
She quickly glanced around. Most people had supernatural powers, but there were also a very small number of ordinary people. They all had frightened expressions on their faces and were pale, as if they were worried about the future survival of themselves and their families.
There was another loud bang, and the mutated beetle exploded, shaking even the ground.
The walls of the safe city were made of the toughest materials and were reinforced by the White Tower, so the shaking was not obvious. However, the dust flying from the explosion blurred the vision of most people, and they could not see what was happening outside the city for a while.
