The sun slanted down through the gaps in the dark clouds, as if it couldn’t bear to see the suffering of this land anymore.
Four hundred packs of instant noodles were quickly sold out. Although it was a transaction, such warmth and order were precious in the end tis.
Just as everyone was still imrsed in the joy brought by the food, a clear voice sounded.
"Bring the bottle here, I can give you water."
The one who said this was Yan Lin.
She stood on one side of the crowd. Her clothes were a little dusty, but her temperant was like a spring in the mountains—calm and composed. The water energy flowed slowly at her fingertips, transparent as a mirror, with a faint blue light.
"Can you really give water?" a woman asked tentatively, her eyes full of desire.
"Yes. As long as you bring a bottle, I’ll give it to you." Yan Lin smiled slightly, raised her hand, and waved it gently, and the clear water ca out like a ribbon, instantly filling the empty plastic bottle in front of her.
The woman was stunned.
This water was not only clear and free of impurities, but also had a hint of temperature—just right for instant noodles.
"It’s hot!" she shouted excitedly, her voice trembling, as if she was holding a bowl of the most precious soup in the world.
So, a new team spontaneously lined up, and water bottles, iron bowls, broken teapots, and everything that could hold water were taken out. Yan Lin was not anxious and took them one by one, and the water slowly poured in with a slight movent of her fingertips.
For her, making water couldn’t be simpler. She was already a sixth-level superpower, and she could change the temperature and form of water at will. Hail, fog, clear springs, hot water—it was just a matter of thought.
"Thank you... Thank you..." A child held instant noodles, with soup on the corners of his mouth, but his eyes looked at Yan Lin, full of gratitude.
Yan Lin said nothing, but raised her hand and continued to pour water for the next person.
I don’t know who laughed first in the crowd, and then the laughter gradually spread, and the child’s cry beca crisp.
But, at this mont, the earth suddenly trembled.
"Buzz-buzz—"
The sound seed to crawl out from the ground, and huge black shadows approached rapidly on the wasteland in the distance.
"It’s a mutant beast!"
"It’s an insect!"
Soone shouted, and everyone’s face turned pale.
Dense mutant insects ca like a tide, huge in size—so as big as a tiger, and so as agile as a fierce dog. Their wings were like blades, and their claws were cold and shining, carrying the breath of death.
"Everyone retreat!" Xu Kai spoke first, his voice was as cold as iron, like an order from a general in the army.
In an instant, all the survivors who were still imrsed in food and water retreated in fear, while Liora and her group stood at the forefront without hesitation.
Xu Kai drew out his saber, with murderous intent in his eyes; Yang Ming embraced his palms, with lightning flashing on them; Zhao Ren’s mouth curled slightly, his figure was like a ghost.
Ji Ming threw the lollipop into his mouth, but his eyes were cold as ice; Shen Haoran stood aside, the whole person seed to blend into the scorching fire, with murderous aura surging.
Liora did not speak. She silently stood at the front. She had no intention to use her shadows here at all. It would bring too much unnecessary attention. So she only took out an AK-47 from her inventory. It was also another reward she gained in Misty Forest.
She fired at the mutated insects. If it was a normal AK-47, it would not be able to pierce their hard shells at all. But with each bullet, there was a breath of her shadows. No one noticed anything, but her shadows instantly did their work and returned to her, without coming to anyone’s notice.
In just a few minutes, the mutant insects were quickly wiped out. The ground was covered with broken insect corpses, limbs were all over the ground, and the stench was pungent, while Liora and the others were covered with blood, but they did not change their faces.
The survivors who witnessed all this were already stunned and trembling.
They realized that the previous "goodwill" and "deal" were just the choices they were willing to make, not the rcy they could not resist.
If they really chose to resist...
There was not even a chance of winning.
The air gradually beca quiet.
Liora and her group, alongside Xu Kai and Yang Ming, returned to the camp and wiped the blood off their bodies. No one spoke, and no one looked tired, as if it was just a small warm-up before dinner.
She sat by the campfire, opened a pack of instant noodles, poured boiling water into the cup, and waited quietly.
"Ah—it slls so good!" Ji Ming sat down, opened the lid of the instant noodles first, and took a deep breath.
"This is not ordinary instant noodles, right? Why do your instant noodles sll so good?" Yang Ming also followed, his eyes bright.
"I don’t know." Liora said lightly.
"Give one, and I’ll give you an interdiate crystal core." Xu Kai simply took out a crystal core with a green glow and handed it over.
"I want it too, I’ll give it too." Yang Ming was not to be outdone, and he also took out his crystal cores.
Liora raised her eyebrows, took the crystal core, and said nothing, but silently handed the instant noodles to them.
In this way, a group of strong n sat on the edge of the wasteland, eating instant noodles, and the chewing sounds ca one after another.
Even if it was just the simplest food, at this mont, it seed like the most beautiful feast in the world.
