Chapter 87: Bugs Are Not That Scary
Dad sat behind the counter and made a cup of coffee.
He picked up the remote and muted the TV.
"An unpleasant sound..."
Judging from the current situation, Coral City has almost survived.
Qi Lang gave speeches everywhere and went to various streets in the war zone to express his condolences.
He even went to the refugee camp and personally unloaded boxes of supplies from trucks and handed them over to the untouchables whom he looked down upon.
Countless media cameras recorded his showmanship and spread it throughout the city.
Hong Bafu frowned and said, "This disgusting guy can still sit in the position of city lord. Has the mechanical tribe never thought of replacing him?"
"A lot of management personnel died last night, and the Mechanical Tribe needs him to maintain stability now." Su Xia said, "As long as he doesn't behave like a loser, the Mechanical Tribe will continue to use him."
"Brother Su, do you know anything about this kind of thing?"
“I know a little bit…”
Most of those management people were killed by Su Xia himself, of course he knew that.
At least half of the staff in the entire Coral City administration were vacant.
Those employees who have been suppressed at the bottom for a long time and unable to be promoted will most likely secretly thank Su Xia for helping them get rid of their immediate boss.
At the same time, Su Xia also learned that...
Many of the people he killed last night were big customers of their pharmacy.
This meant that, from the time the store opened in the morning until now, the two brothers had not been sent out to deliver medicine, and were sitting leisurely behind the operating table making medicine.
Business in many surrounding shops seems to have declined.
Mr. Zhao, the boss of the restaurant across the street, was bored and came to the pharmacy to chat with my dad.
"Master, I just drove to the ruins to take a look." Boss Zhao is quite talkative. "The scene is really spectacular. Many buildings have collapsed. There are many big pits on the ground and a lot of blood. It is said that... Yutuo City Lord beat the masked man into pieces. There is not even a piece of intact flesh and blood left!"
“Hehe…”
Dad took a sip of coffee and had no intention of communicating.
Hong Bafu turned around and retorted: "Boss Zhao, the masked man must still be alive, don't spread rumors here."
“Hey, young man, Lord Yutuo has already taken action, how could the masked man still be alive?”
"How is it impossible?"
Hong Bafu immediately stood up and wanted to walk to the counter to have a good talk with the restaurant owner.
He already regarded the masked man as his half brother , and couldn't stand hearing others talk nonsense like that.
But the old man behind the counter raised his eyelids and suppressed Hong Bafu with just one look.
Hong Bafu said angrily: "Forget it, refining medicine is more important..."
When the masked man appears again in the future, all the rumors in the city will naturally be refuted.
…
Meanwhile, in an office building downtown.
After being busy for half the morning, Qi Lang was finally able to take a rest.
He sat comfortably in his office chair, picked up a cup of warm tea, blew on it gently, and said with a smile: "The Mechanical Clan asked me to continue doing this, so I have secured this position for the time being."
"Congratulations, sir." Secretary Chai An expressed his congratulations.
"You have contributed a lot, I'll remember that." Qi Lang was in a good mood, "Those lowly people are really lowly, just giving them a little favor can make them grateful, why didn't I realize it before? Xiao Chai, it has to be you."
"Sir, I also came from the common people."
"Yes! From now on, I'll leave this matter to you to figure out a solution!"
"yes……"
Chai An hesitated for a moment and asked, "Sir, will all the supplies you promised to the refugees be delivered to the refugee camp in the next few days?"
“Why send it there?”
Qi Lang looked surprised and stopped smiling.
He put down his teacup and said seriously, "Xiao Chai, do you know how difficult the finances of Coral City are right now?"
"Sir, according to our plan..."
"It's a plan!" Qi Lang interrupted the secretary. "Before, the whole city was in chaos, so we had to do this, but now it has stabilized!"
"But……"
"Xiao Chai, that's not how you use money! It's enough for those untouchables to survive!"
Qi Lang's face darkened, and he was obviously dissatisfied.
The supplies provided to various refugee camps during this live show are enough to keep the refugees quiet for a while, so there is no need to give out too much.
In the chaos of this night, many wealthy people's manors were affected, and repairing those manors became the top priority.
"Yes...Your Excellency is right."
Chai An lowered his head and walked out of the office, leaning in the corridor outside the door and sighing.
…
real world.
Su Xia went offline and had breakfast.
In the dormitory, several roommates were still sleeping.
In the trash can in the corner of the dormitory, Su Xia saw a pile of sauerkraut noodles bags, which meant that these guys had woken up in the middle of the night.
After breakfast, Su Xia took her textbook and hurried to the teaching building for class.
He once again accomplished the feat of answering for the entire dormitory by himself.
At noon, he went to the cafeteria as usual and packed a few lunch boxes.
"Hello, ho, ho, ho, ho... wake up and eat..."
He banged on the dormitory door hard, waking up several roommates.
After doing all this, Su Xia returned to the bed and activated the bracelet.
When he returned to the game world again, he received a piece of information that shocked him.
[Your true psychic power level has been restored to level 3.6 ]
Finally, fully recovered!
As expected, the repairman Shu Cheng's level 4 armor was also completed.
Su Xia returned to the commander account, clenched his fists tightly, and felt the powerful spiritual energy in his body.
"Comfortable!"
In this world, strength is confidence!
He pushed open the wooden door of the hot spring room, the sunlight poured in, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his whole body felt warm.
There have been significant changes in the Oasis Camp in the past few days.
Layer upon layer of fortifications were built from inside the camp all the way to the forest.
Many heavy artillery pieces were pulled out, and heavy machine guns were set up at various key points. Everyone was fully prepared.
The players were also not idle, searching for the Zerg's nest throughout the forest.
Just now, I actually made a discovery.
"Bug! A bug appeared in that direction!" a player shouted.
"What? The Zerg are attacking in large numbers?"
"No, there was only one... and it was killed by that awesome NPC..."
The "very powerful NPC" that players refer to is Zhang Fang from Longcheng.
In the past few days, Zhang Fang has been very active, demonstrating his powerful combat capability in the jungle and killing various monsters, while communicating with the management of the Oasis Camp.
Many senior officials in the camp seemed to be vaguely moving closer to Zhang Fang.
After all, Zhang Fang has a Longcheng background and is the strongest fighting force in the camp.
If this continues, control of the entire camp might really fall into Zhang Fang's hands.
"Snapped!"
Zhang Fang walked out of the forest and threw the body of an insect in front of everyone.
The bug was very small, no more than half a person's height, and was different from the previous fear parasite.
One player immediately took a screenshot of the insect's corpse and posted it on the forum, captioning it "This is a giant cockroach from our south."
Su Xia recognized it at a glance.
This is a swift worm, a low-level Zerg soldier with low intelligence and combat effectiveness.
Speaking of which, the mission to explore the forest was clearly initiated by Su Xia, but now Zhang Fang has become the leader.
He stood in front of everyone and said confidently: "My friends, bugs are not that scary..."
