Chapter 383 Will I be the next you?
Even though it was supposed to be the closest treasure chest, it still took half an hour.
Lu Youyou has an automatic pickup function within one meter. Without opening the car door, supplies within range can be freely put into the backpack slots.
However, before she could even speak in her mind, the intelligent iron arm sensed the presence of the treasure chest by the roadside, instantly picked it up, and placed it next to the car door.
Lu Youyou opened the treasure chest.
[Fog Cores*1]
【Hippophae rhamnoides *1】
10000 Gold Coins
Gold coins are given the most, but they are also the least useful in this situation.
Lu Youyou put all the supplies into her backpack.
"Navigate, drive to..."
Boom!
The car was suddenly rear-ended, and Lu Youyou steadied herself by holding onto the wall.
Through the rear window, she saw the front of a truck closely connected to the rear of her car.
Everything else was shrouded in mist.
Lu Youyou immediately used the seven-leaf clover she had just obtained, and the mist was blown away, revealing the full scene.
Beside the black truck, two bald men wearing clear sunglasses crept closer to him.
One was fat and bald, the other was thin and bald.
Wearing clear sunglasses, they couldn't see the fog for a limited time, so they didn't know the fog had disappeared.
The two acted like they were performing a pantomime, only lip-syncing without making a sound, trying to ambush Lu Youyou.
thump.
A paralysis bullet was thrown from Lu Youyou's hand and landed on the open ground between the two of them.
The two looked up at the same time, their eyes meeting Lu Youyou's. A bad feeling welled up in their hearts—they had been discovered!
Just as he was about to run away, his body went limp, and he lost control of his body, falling to the ground.
"Robbery! Hand over the Fog Core, and we'll spare your lives."
Lu Youyou held up her slingshot and aimed it at the crotch of one of the men.
"You two, you don't want to die in such a pathetic way, do you?"
Judging that the paralysis bullet was about to expire, Lu Youyou threw out another one, successfully breaking the defenses of the two who wanted to launch another sneak attack.
Their bodies cannot move, but their eyes can still convey information.
Lu Youyou realized they weren't being honest, so she fired a regular bullet directly at the skinny man.
Despite the intense pain, the thin man broke free from the paralysis grenades and curled up, frantically pounding the ground.
Not wanting to cause any further trouble, Lu Youyou threw out another paralysis bomb to control the thin man's movements.
The paralyzing bullets that outsiders used sparingly were inexhaustible for her.
"Fatty, it's your turn. I'll count to three. If you still can't come up with anything useful, you'll end up like that skinny girl, with nothing to show for it."
"Three, two..."
Before he finished speaking, supplies exploded around the fat man.
Lu Youyou guessed correctly; they were not completely restricted by the paralysis grenades and could still control their backpacks with their thoughts.
It seems the effectiveness of the paralysis bullets is waning, as the surviving humans are all getting stronger.
Lu Youyou sighed and threw out another paralysis grenade. It automatically picked up the dropped supplies when it got within a meter of the two people.
Suddenly, she pulled out a machete, hacked the two men to death, and quickly put them into the mad snake cage as a nutritious meal.
"Hand over the supplies and I'll spare your life"—that's the biggest lie she ever told.
The two wore clear sunglasses beforehand, and even though they clearly saw their car next to the treasure chest, they still deliberately crashed into it.
Whether or not they recognized their own identities, they were the ones who first harbored malicious intentions, but they lacked the power to do so.
These two men, assessing the situation, buried their hatred for her deep in their hearts, intending to exchange resources for her life; they were good at being flexible and adaptable.
It's a pity she wasn't a good person who kept her promises.
She wouldn't wait until a potential problem arises to be resolved, even if it could be solved instantly.
Place the man's truck into the dismantling device, Lu Youyou uses the advanced vehicle repair card, then gets in the vehicle and directs the navigation towards the next treasure chest location.
As for Lu Youyou, she opened the backpack compartment to look.
A lot of supplies just dropped around Big Fatty, and she was in a hurry to collect them within the effective range of the Seven-Leaf Clover, so she didn't look closely.
Now that I have time, I can take a good look at it.
[Fog Cores*3]
【Clear Sunglasses * 8】
[Advanced Car Repair Card *3]
[Handwritten apology letters *2]
The first three items were within Lu Youyou's expectations, but that handwritten apology letter…
Lu Youyou was curious about what was written on the paper, so she handed over the two apology letters.
[Brother, we're so sorry. Our eyesight isn't good, and we accidentally bumped into your car. We'll give you a car repair card to repair the vehicle. Please forgive us.]
The second apology letter contained no changes except that the title was changed from "elder brother" to "elder sister".
It seems these two knew they would encounter a situation where they couldn't speak, and prepared to apologize in advance.
but--
What does it mean to give her two apology letters?
I don't know if she's male or female?
Lu Youyou was speechless...
Similar situations to what Lu Youyou encountered occurred on different sections of the road.
Some tried to rob someone using their cleverness but were killed instead, while others succeeded in their robbery.
Because the fog can cause people to fall into a coma and produce mutations that are either good or bad, people are eager to stockpile items to dispel the fog.
However, resources are limited, and there are currently no other ways to obtain them. If you want to hoard them, you can only rely on robbing.
The hard-won stability has been thrown into chaos.
Everywhere, there were cries of people dying.
If you enter the public chat and swipe up a few times randomly, you'll see quite a few grayed-out avatars.
It's important to understand that only those who spoke in the public chat died; there were certainly others who died even if they didn't speak.
For some reason, a sense of sadness rose in Lu Youyou's heart.
The fog not only obscured her vision, but also her future.
She suddenly didn't know what the point of living was.
To gain the trust of adults?
Or is it to participate in more game instances and experience more natural disasters?
And then what? Is there anything else that can be done?
"Didi dididi——"
"Warning! Warning! The character is experiencing inner problems. Please pay attention, Master."
Inside the laboratory, large screens on the walls glowed red, making the pristine white walls appear reddish.
The screen was filled with text that represented Lu Youyou's inner thoughts.
An adult stumbled in, a piece of bread dangling from their mouth, pushed open the door, quickly scanned the text on the screen, and took out a tablet to operate it.
hum-
Lu Youyou's watch vibrated violently, unlike any she had experienced before.
She looked down at her watch and saw that it was Yu Qian calling her on video.
Without giving it a second thought, Lu Youyou immediately answered the phone.
"Youyou, are you alright?"
Lu Youyou smiled and said, "Of course I'm fine. Even though we're in the fog, I have plenty of ten-leaf clovers that can disperse it."
"I'm relieved to see that you're doing well."
Lu Youyou smiled at first, then remembered something.
"Now you can talk to me openly? Does that mean the adults aren't monitoring you anymore?"
"Starting today, I can go out and play whenever I want! I don't have to stay in the arena anymore!"
"Really? That's great! The arena is dark and gloomy, nothing like the sunshine outside... and the sunshine outside isn't bright either."
Lu Youyou's mood suddenly plummeted.
Looking at Yu Qian, who was dressed in full armor, she was completely different from the image of her wearing a white dress on Blue Star.
"Xiaoqian, could I be the next you? Or could I be the next dungeon NPC?"
