The Pitiful Girl She Picked Up Turned Out to Be a Cruel and Vicious Beauty Chapter 23 : Little Clever Ghost

Little Clever Ghost (v1c23)

The sudden sound was not unfamiliar to her. It was a reminder of the golden finger lucky draw. But Ye Sheng did not imdiately choose to accept it. She refused.

She wanted to study the F-class energy stone with zero energy that she had found.

She lifted the black stone and examined it closely. It looked exactly the sa as before. Nothing had changed.

That was strange.

Ye Sheng had learned from Zhou Lin that energy stones decayed quickly after their energy was used up. They turned into ashes, leaving behind a trace of energy residue. This residue could be used as a natural fertilizer to grow polluting organisms.

It was a good result.

It could speed up the growth of the polluting organisms.

But the energy stone in Ye Sheng's hand did not decay at all. It was still hard and solid, even when she squeezed it. There was no sign of deterioration.

Could it be that there was a difference between Xiaodongxi absorbing the energy stone and an instrunt extracting its energy?

That was the only explanation she could think of.

Unfortunately, there was no one around who could answer her question. She had to keep it in her heart for now.

She would wait until she had a chance to find out the answer later.

Of course, she could also ask Old Lin in the Swap Shop, but that would involve revealing the secret of Xiaodongxi. Ye Sheng thought it was better not to take any risks.

She was shocked when she discovered that Xiaodongxi could absorb energy stones. She could only imagine how the native wastelanders would react.

Maybe they would take Xiaodongxi away as a rare experintal subject.

Ye Sheng shuddered at the thought. She didn't care about her curiosity anymore. She just wanted to live a good life with Xiaodongxi in the wasteland world.

But today's rich harvest in the wilderness made her feel more optimistic. She didn't have to worry about food for this month.

She had solved the imdiate hunger crisis. Now she felt that she needed to set a bigger goal to motivate herself to work hard and make progress.

For example, buying a house in a safe area.

She hoped that Xiaodongxi would recover soon, but she knew that energy stones were not easy to find. They required a lot of luck.

She couldn't rely on luck alone.

She had to try to find energy stones, but they couldn't be her main focus.

She had another reason to buy a house.

The mitigation zone was too dangerous. There had been no incidents so far, but what if a contaminated creature attacked? The ordinary people had no defense. They would be easy prey for the monsters, unless the rcenary group ca to rescue them in ti.

A wise person would not stay in a dangerous place.

It was better to plan ahead.

She rembered what Zhou Lin had told her about his encounter with the Green Frog today. She felt a surge of fear in her heart. Even though the rcenary groups cleared the wilderness regularly, so creatures still escaped their notice.

What if a group of Green Frogs attacked the mitigation zone? They might do it one by one, like Zhou Lin had faced.

What would she do then? Would she fight them off with her small hoe?

And there were many other creatures in the wilderness that were more terrifying than the Green Frogs...

Moving into a house in a safe zone would guarantee her safety, at least for a while.

She wouldn't have to be a human shield against the attacks of the polluted creatures.

But houses in the safe zone were too expensive. Even if Ye Sheng could afford one, she would only be able to buy it in District 18 of the outer city, which was the area next to the city wall. And it would cost millions of points.

Right now, her identity card had zero points.
