Come to the end of the world with all the teachers and students of the school

Chapter 24 Lifespan and Currency

After getting the pass, Li Shou came to the instructor Shaxi.

"Instructor, I got my pass today and I can go out."

"Hahaha, good boy, I have already seen that you are different. You must have a chance to pass the three missions! How about it, are you going to hunt beasts now?"

"I want to learn more about the Encyclopedia of Beasts first, so I can go outside to have a look. I haven't seen what Fenggu City looks like! Can I ask the instructor to help hunt the beasts tomorrow?"

"That's fine. After all, it's up to you to choose which beast gene to choose, and it's normal to study it." While speaking, Shaxi took out a thick booklet from his clothes and handed it to Li Shou, "Encyclopedia, It was already prepared for you."

"Thank you, Instructor."

After Li Shou took the booklet, he flipped through it on the spot.

This is the first time he has read Beast Encyclopedia.

After all, the things in the dream are vague, he only remembers the general things, and the details like the contents of the books are always in the fog.

The full name of the encyclopedia is - "Encyclopedia of General Types of Gene Fusion Beasts Near Fenggu City".

A super long name, which records thousands of beasts.

Most of the Beasts are just passing by because they are not very capable.

Those with detailed text introductions have at least one good ability.

Those with pictures and text introductions have at least two good abilities.

"The radiation beasts farther away from Fenggu City should be of different species, right?"

"Of course it's different!" Shaxi said with a smile: "There are more species in the 'Mushroom Field' than your Earth species, Fenggu City is just a small area, and there must be more and more powerful beasts in other places. "

"That……"

"Don't be greedy, kid. Although some monsters are powerful, their traits are not necessarily strong. According to your earthlings, elephants are definitely stronger than ants, but ants may have stronger traits."

"And even if there are beasts with better characteristics outside, first, you can't go that far, and we guards can't go too far, it's too dangerous outside. Second, the specific ability of those things has to be tested repeatedly. If the ability If there are too many, the probability of obtaining powerful abilities is not high. Instead of being too ambitious, it is better to find them directly in the encyclopedia."

"Thank you instructor for your teaching." Li Shou thanked him sincerely.

Indeed, what Shaxi said was very correct.

Although there are many wild beasts in the outside world, he doesn't have the ability to hunt and kill, and his biological abilities are not clear, so it's better to pick the ones that are ready-made in the encyclopedia.

There are thousands of beasts anyway, enough to choose from.

"When you go out, don't stay too far from the edge of the city. There are too many wild animals and it's dangerous."

"Understood the instructor! I'll go first."

"Ah."

After bidding farewell to Shaxi, Li Shou walked through the group of students who were still training under the envious eyes of his classmates, and came to the gate of the training ground.

The big iron gate was still closed, and several guards stood beside it.

Seeing the guard, Li Shou quickly took out his pass.

"I got three days to go out... this is a card from Captain Iwaizumi."

"Hmm..." A guard came over to check the card, and then waved his hand to let it go, "The gate is open."

Accompanied by the "click" sound of the iron door sliding, Li Shou finally left the environment that had been closed for a long time.

Walking out the door, it seems that the air outside is a little fresher.

Walking on the doomsday street, Li Shou looked at the people and buildings outside.

Outside the training ground is a semi-commercial street. Unlike the earth, most of the surrounding shops sell some equipment and supplements. Among the passers-by, there are some with deformed faces due to radiation, and some with normal faces.

The atmosphere of the whole city reveals a kind of "balance and chaos".

When Li Shou looked at the street, some pedestrians also looked at him.

Seeing that Li Shou came out of the training camp without the clothes of the guards, several people immediately followed him.

"Do you want a guide, are you a time traveler?"

"Looking at the clothes, it should be a newcomer."

"Take you to visit Fenggu City?"

"Need hunting help?"

"..." Li Shou looked at the people who surrounded him, but didn't answer.

"Is there no money? We don't need money, we just need our lives." Seeing that Li Shou hadn't spoken, several people took the initiative to chat.

"Old Chai, why are you talking so scary? Let me explain to him." A short man with unclear facial features stepped forward and slowly explained.

"Newcomers, the so-called asking for money, the currency of the Mushroom City is the mushroom body. You know that mushrooms have too many uses. They can replenish physical strength and enhance physical fitness. Large pieces have many other wonderful functions. The mushroom body is the currency. Everything can be exchanged.”

"The so-called death! It means that there is another currency that only you traversers have, that is lifespan. Your lifespan trading rights can be exchanged into the mushroom body, and we can also use it. Lifespan is also a sought-after commodity."

"But don't worry, Fenggu City is mainly balanced and supplemented by chaos. Under the rules, no one can snatch your lifespan, and mushrooms don't allow people to do so at will. Are we fair trade?"

"I don't need a guide, but I want your clothes. Now I'm offering three hours of my lifespan to exchange for a coat and some mushroom coins. Whoever pays the most gets it!"

"Okay, fair and reasonable."

"Very balanced!"

After several people discussed the deal, Li Shou finally made a deal with that thin man.

During the transaction, the man took out a special black mushroom body and put it on Li Shou's wrist. After Li Shou silently said the word "agree", his life countdown rapidly decreased by three hours, and the mushroom body squirmed and devoured. part of his life.

Then the short man took out two or three fingernail-sized bacteria from his arms and gave them to Li Shou, and then took off his coat and gave them to him.

After sending them away, Li Shou changed into local clothes.

Although the clothes are useless, they can save him a lot of trouble.

After changing it, he bought a short steel spear from the weapon shop next door, and used the remaining mushroom coins to hire a car to go to the edge of the city - the school cemetery.

The cemetery is far away.

It already belongs to the outer periphery of the city.

The vehicle took a long time to arrive.

After the car arrived, Li Shou saw some radiation beasts wandering in the distance—just like the first day, this place was not safe.

"What are you looking at, give me the money!"

The driver patted the door of the jagged modified pickup, urging Li Shou who was still watching.

"If you don't give money, I will saw you to death!"

"Stop talking nonsense." Li Shou, who looked away, took out the small fungus and pinched some of them to the other party.

After the other party received the money to drive Li Shou out of the car, he directly opened the flame jet on the side of the car door, turned 180 degrees on the spot, and left screaming.

Due to absorbing too many fragments that destroyed the world, the vehicles and people in Fenggu City all revealed an aura of doom.

"finally reached."

Seeing the vehicle going away, Li Shou picked up his spear and walked into the school cemetery.
