Chapter 301: Automatic pickup is not turned off, wild food is dazzling
The hot air flowed through his throat, causing Li Xiao's lungs to feel a slight stinging pain.
Feeling the high temperature environment all around him, Li Xiao had to circulate the magic power in his body and temporarily transform it into ice magic power to continuously cool down his body.
He continued to walk in this dangerous factory area, constantly clearing the ruins, transporting supplies, building temporary fortifications, blocking the leakage of toxic substances, and assisting in the repair of the spiritual path and formation...
Although Li Xiao was extremely careful, an unexpected explosion still left extensive burns on his body.
After constantly breathing in the toxic substances remaining in the air, his internal organs began to ache slightly, and his limbs gradually felt slightly numb.
Even so, although the job ahead was dangerous and hard, when he thought of the five-fold salary, Li Xiao felt a surge of motivation in his originally tired body.
"After I finish this period of time, next time Ying Xin and the others ask me to practice together, I won't have to refuse."
"I don't have to worry about the loan interest this month..."
Just as Li Xiao sped up to transport a batch of spiritual guidance materials, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance.
The next moment, Li Xiao felt dizzy, his body swayed, and then he fell to the ground with a bang.
He struggled to get up, but found that his limbs, which were usually extremely strong, were now sore and weak. After twisting for a while, he fell to the ground.
At the same time, the sweet smell in the air became stronger and stronger, making his consciousness more and more blurred.
"not good……"
"It's a toxic leak..."
Li Xiao bit his tongue hard, trying to sober himself up a little, but the poison came so fast and violently that he felt the strength in his body draining away rapidly, and gradually he could no longer feel the muscles in his hands and feet.
"No, if this continues the poisoning will get worse..."
A hint of fear appeared in Li Xiao's eyes. He struggled to keep his eyes open, fighting against the increasingly heavy sleepiness in his mind.
He was really afraid that he would open and close his eyes, and when he woke up again he would appear in the depths of the spiritual world.
Then he discovered that his body had been mortgaged to pay for the medical expenses for his physical injuries, and his soul was waiting to be assigned a job to repay the debt.
"Dead legs! Stand up!"
At this moment, Li Xiao felt a trace of regret in his heart: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have taken such a risk."
"Earn a little less, spend a little less... so what?"
Just when Li Xiao was feeling fear and regret, a pair of large hands grabbed his neck and lifted him up like a kitten.
Then the sound of breaking air was heard all around, and the scene in front of Li Xiao's eyes changed.
When he came to his senses, he found that he and several other workers had been thrown onto the open space at the factory gate with a bang.
Breathing the normal air outside, Li Xiao felt a surge of relief in his heart. He looked up at Zhang Yu's departing back, and his eyes became complicated.
Ying Xin, who was watching this scene, thought to herself, "Risking in to make money at the risk of bankruptcy, and still having time to save people?"
She shook her head, too lazy to look at the situation here, and left.
At this moment, several security guards came over, looked at Li Xiao and others and said, "Everyone, cooperate with us. We need to check to prevent you from accidentally bringing out any dangerous substances from the factory."
Li Xiao knew that this was to prevent them from secretly taking things out of the factory.
Just then, several packets of raw materials for medicine were found on a worker.
The security guard said, "Captain, the person who stole two tons of supplies has been found."
The worker was horrified and said, "I just stole these two packages."
"I didn't steal two tons!"
…
On the other side, Zhang Yu had already walked back into the billowing smoke and dust.
Zhang Yu's body has been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations, and is far more powerful than his peers.
And with the blessing of the Holy Civil Body, his body has terrifying protection against all kinds of dangers in the factory at the moment.
The blazing heat swept across his skin like a warm breeze.
Toxic and harmful substances in the air rush into the mouth and nose, bringing with them waves of refreshing sweet smells.
As for the unexpected explosion, the fragments that flew out with the explosion, and the rolling toxic smoke...it was difficult to hurt Zhang Yu at this moment.
Even if his body was damaged at times, he would revitalize it with the Canniushe body mind and body technique to speed up the healing process.
Just like that, Zhang Yu returned to the place where Li Xiao had just fallen. He thought to himself, "There's no one here now."
He found the place where the toxic substance had just leaked and collected the alloy fragments that seemed unwanted.
After wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Zhang Yu did not do so even though he really wanted to swallow the alloy.
After all, the environment is quite dangerous at the moment, and he still needs the Holy Body of Earth to ensure his safety.
However, if you do not switch to the University Holy Body, without the super digestive power brought by the University Holy Body and the added effect of the exercises, both the efficiency and effect of eating will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, he planned to collect some first, and before leaving the factory after get off work, find a safer location, and then switch to the University Holy Body for tasting.
So at this moment Zhang Yu temporarily put the alloy fragments into his arms, and looked at another piece of ruins, which was the wild polymer material belonging to the pharmaceutical factory workshop.
So in the following time, Zhang Yu worked in the factory while collecting some unwanted wild ingredients.
Zhang Yu felt like a country bumpkin who was eating a seafood buffet for the first time. The biggest problem was that when faced with a wide variety of dishes, he didn't know which one was more valuable or more nutritious. He could only take a little bit of each and try them all.
Apart from the unwanted materials all over the floor, what Zhang Yu coveted the most were the raw materials from various pharmaceutical factories.
However, since he had not yet activated the University Holy Body, he did not plan to eat anything carelessly. He just collected some first, and after switching to the University Holy Body, he would taste them one by one with his powerful medicine-taking ability.
…
At the factory gate.
Li Xiao felt that he had recovered a lot. At least his limbs were no longer numb, his head was no longer dizzy, and the pain from the burning sensation on his body became extremely clear.
While Li Xiao was resting, he saw Zhang Yu carrying the injured workers out of the factory several times and throwing them on the ground around them.
This made Li Xiao look at Zhang Yu with more and more complicated eyes.
In his opinion, wasting one's working time to help others is absolutely stupid.
"hiss……"
Feeling the increasingly painful burns on his body, Li Xiao knew that if he didn't heal the injury, his future studies and practice would be affected.
Fortunately, the outside of the venue is still connected to the spiritual world network.
As soon as he thought about it, he called for telemedicine service.
After a moment, a doctor appeared in his vision and examined him.
Five minutes later, a medical student arrived beside Li Xiao.
With several magical powers blasting out, a few silver needles falling, and the last dose of potion being drunk, Li Xiao felt much better.
But a few minutes later, as he looked at the medical bills emerging from his eyes, he felt seriously hurt again.
"0.78 Spirit Coins? Why is it so expensive?!"
Although some of the expenses are reimbursed by medical insurance, Li Xiao knows that this will still be a huge burden for him, and his medical insurance will definitely skyrocket next year.
Before he could calm down, he found out that his medical insurance application was not approved.
"Why don't you reimburse me?!"
Just as Li Xiao was arguing with the medical insurance company, today's payment reminder arrived again.
This month's loan interest is three days overdue.
Li Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still found his uncle.
Uncle: Please send me your credit information and spending list first Uncle: 30 spirit coins?! You spent so much in just 5 months?
Li Xiao: My classmates invited me to practice, so I couldn’t refuse. Otherwise, how could I keep up with my grades? Li Xiao: I also need a better eye socket, otherwise, my learning efficiency would not be able to keep up.
Looking at his uncle who no longer replied to his messages, Li Xiao sighed deeply.
Just then, Tulishan sent a notice announcing that the salary for rescue and maintenance work at the pharmaceutical factory would be increased again, to 8 times the salary.
Looking at the area with thick smoke not far away, Li Xiao gritted his teeth.
"Give it a try! As long as I can earn this money, as long as I get eight times the salary this time, as long as I'm more careful, I will definitely be able to make it through..."
Thinking about the various immortal services and products that he and Ying Xin had enjoyed together, thinking about the eye skeleton that he had sold, thinking about his current ranking...
Li Xiao couldn't accept these things leaving him.
He understood deeply that in Kunxu, one could have nothing except money.
So he stood up again and rushed into the billowing smoke and dust.
It was not just Li Xiao. As wages increased, workers who had already quit, been injured, or left gradually began to come back and once again rushed into the factory area filled with thick smoke.
…
Inside the factory.
Looking at the more workers gathering around him, Zhang Yu frowned slightly, thinking that there were too many people and it would be inconvenient for him to pick up things.
"Especially for a bunch of Qi-refining people, what's the point of doubling their salary? Is it really necessary to work so hard?"
Zhang Yu shook his head. Fortunately, the poisonous smoke and dust were his best cover, allowing him to continue his actions.
As he collected more and more things, Zhang Yu simply hid them in several deeper ruins. Then he discovered... something in one of the ruins had been picked up.
"Damn it... I knew I wasn't the only one picking up things."
Before leaving get off work, Zhang Yu took out the remaining things and came to a safer place.
After using the detection ritual to confirm that there were no cameras nearby, Zhang Yu opened the Feather Book and turned to the chapter on the chain diagram. After dragging the techniques one by one, he switched the Civil Engineering Holy Body to the University Holy Body.
Unlike the skill specialization which requires a day's cooldown before switching, the chain diagram can be switched at any time and it only takes a few seconds.
Then he grabbed a few pieces of metal fragments and swallowed them into his stomach.
The digestive power at the peak of the foundation-building stage suddenly activated, and with the help of the earth-eating magic, it crushed the alloys into powder one by one and refined them into Zhang Yu's bones.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Hmm... this alloy is very hard, it should be able to be used to strengthen bones."
"This polymer material is both flexible and strong. Can it be used to refine into the skin?"
"What is this gelatinous substance?"
"Alas, I don't have enough knowledge. I need to go back and check..."
So Zhang Yu ate while writing down the characteristics, appearance and taste of various ingredients.
“Wild ones are more fragrant.”
But Zhang Yu soon discovered that not everything could be digested by him.
There were at least three kinds of materials that looked extraordinary at first glance. Even with his digestive ability and the level 20 earth-eating magic skill, he was unable to digest them and had to vomit them out again in the end.
After this experience, Zhang Yu became more cautious about the raw materials leaked from the pharmaceutical factory. He was afraid of eating something that he could not bear.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "I have to ask my sister to find out what these are."
Zhang Yu increasingly felt the importance of knowledge and information, otherwise he would enter a buffet restaurant without knowing which food was good.
