The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 89: It’s good to return home with youth as your companion, and to be overjoyed when death is imminent! (1/3, please subscribe)

"No one wants to play the game, and I get blocked for asking questions. It's terrible. This upgrade network is too unfriendly to newbies."

"You can completely abandon the idea of ​​clinging to others."

"Well, in that case, the only solution is for me to turn myself into the thickest thigh."

Xu Shu concentrated all his thoughts and thrust forward into the Taichu Scroll, blowing up gusts of mist. Light and shadow appeared in the chaos:
[Detecting current status...]

[Testing completed. 】

[You are in a very bad state now. You are trapped in the basement of the shelter. You have no water or food. With no food or ammunition, within a week, even a legendary alien warrior like you, who is level 12, will be trapped to death here.]

"?"

What the hell?
Where am I stuck?

[You don't believe in evil, you walk up the stairs, and you find that the iron door at the exit is tightly sealed. ]

[What should I do? Maybe you can try to shout for help, you shout:..."

[“Who is more itchy and fixed the door?”]

【You fixed it yourself yesterday. 】

【“Oh, which idiot locked the door?” You kicked the iron door with great force, sending it flying. 】

[A few clicks sounded, and a group of refugees outside who were rushing to the front hall to get breakfast looked at you in shock, because two girls among them were killed by the iron door you kicked off, and the ground was covered with blood and flesh, a mess.]

[It's so terrifying that even an unintentional action by a supernatural being could cause the death of ordinary people around them. You should be more careful next time! ]

[“Oh, sir, please spare my life~~” They were so scared that they knelt on the ground and cried. ]

【“Who locked the door?” You asked them with a stern expression. 】

【“I don’t know who it is… Sir, we didn’t know you were down there~” Everyone was terrified. 】

[You can't be sure whether they did it on purpose or accidentally, because you are sure you didn't tell anyone that you slept in there last night. You think it was probably an accident, because if someone really wanted to deal with you, they wouldn't just lock the door.]

[“Okay, I’ll be more careful next time. Now that things have come to this, let’s eat first.” You made the sign of a cross on your chest in a serious manner.]

[Assholes, how could they know there would be a next time? ]

[Now their love and admiration for you have turned sour, and they think you are a terrible tyrant.]

[And you, who crushed two cute young girls to death, don't you have any psychological burden at all? You even have the nerve to smile. ]

[Damn it! That's too damned! Even though you're on Journey, you should at least be more restrained. Are you treating Journey as an 18+ game? You can't do that!]

[After you have breakfast, you repeatedly confirm that the quicksand has completely disappeared.]

[You continue to let Gu Pan drive, and you leave the shelter amid the trembling farewell of the refugees.]

[This time, your target for Gu Pan is no longer another refuge, but to go east. You have made up your mind to return to the safe zone today no matter what.]

[Based on the shelter, your current coordinates are (-15, 14). You are on your way home.]

[The road of life is rugged and difficult for people to travel, but the world of mortals returns to the path of reason and the clouds are clear. You have been driving for a full six hours, and in front of you, a towering "呆" character that reaches the sky enters your sight. 】 (Note 1)

[That's the Star Tower! The next stop is the D8B3 safe zone, and we're almost there.]

"..."

The star tower in the shape of the Chinese character “呆” (stupid) is stepped on by the god.

Xu Shu almost laughed out loud.

However, although he did not encounter any danger along the way, he still did not let his guard down.

There is death everywhere, monsters everywhere, such a wasteland is too dangerous.

[You open the window, enjoying the breeze, and let Gu Pan continue to pass on common knowledge to you, including the process of signing the enrollment certificate.]

[You have made all the preparations, you miss your family, and you are eager to go home. ]

[You saw a huge city, which was protected by a majestic wall hundreds of meters high.]

【You are so close to home! 】

On the screen, a realistic aerial view of a huge wasteland city appeared.

The outside of this city is the character “⊙”, and the bottom is the character “田”, with ⊙ on the field.

It can be seen that the city is almost laid out in a multi-petal "田" shape.

It takes the Star Tower as the origin and radiates outward in a crisscross pattern, forming a circle with a radius of ten kilometers, forming a coordinate system outward from this.

In fact – not only layout and coordinates are “fields”.

There is literally farmland everywhere in the city.

Fields occupy more than half of the entire safe zone, and planting, animal husbandry and breeding are everywhere.

The power grid is like a crisscross of teeth buried underground, ghost trams loaded with harvest roar across the fields, and small towns are everywhere, with industrial areas and residential areas neatly arranged. People who look smaller than ants come in and out, driving small cars loaded with goods, working hard, and there are also super machines that look as big as grasshoppers, helping with the harvest.

What a modern pastoral idyll!

The center of the city, the core area around the Star Tower, is a modern urban area with tall buildings. The Administration Bureau directly deducted a large area under the Star Tower as its base.

The further out you go and closer to the farmland, the poorer the area is; the further in you go, the richer it is, with all kinds of modern facilities such as hospitals, schools, and commercial areas.

Looking all the way from the outer circle to the inner circle is like driving a tank patrolling on the city wall, all the way from the doomsday present to eighteen years ago.

From the small town to the city and then to the miraculous star tower, it progresses layer by layer.

Like a living fossil, it has crossed the long river of time and recreated the former glory of mankind.

The star tower in the middle is a waterway hub and a transportation umbilical cord.

This is the safe zone in the end times.

Her safety lies not only in the strength of military force, but also in the ability to produce food - the safe zone in each area is the largest producer of local food supplies, and all the people scattered throughout the wasteland rely on the food there for survival.

Dynamic: D8B3 Safe Zone.Gif
【You continue your journey, oops! 】

“?” Xu Shu was startled.

The enemy is coming?

Every time someone says "Ouch", something bad is bound to happen. This Taichu volume is also weird. The whole story depends on the "Ouch".

[Oh, I can't believe you had a smooth journey this time. You didn't encounter any attacks and successfully returned to the entrance of a city gate in the northwest area of ​​the safe zone.]

[“…” You heaved a sigh of relief. You saw that there were also scattered human gatherings near the city gate, and from time to time a convoy of trains would leave from here.]

[Some of them are soldiers who go to the wasteland to perform daily patrols, and some are scavengers who once wanted to make a fortune by picking up garbage like you.]

[Today, you, the scavenger Xu Shu, the great master of the Taichu Scroll, you succeeded in scavenging, and you are still a young man when you return! ]

[This scavenging trip took a total of 7 days, which is a perfect number. 】

[You can choose to stay in the refugee camp outside. There are a lot of traveling merchants here, and there are crowded temporary markets. There may also be a black market where underground transactions can be carried out. Why not go in and take a look? ]

【your choice:?】

[You are eager to go home. You just want to go back and see your family. It feels like a long time since you last saw them. It has been 21 years now.]

[“Let’s go to your house to get the money first.” You said to your driver. ]

[After driving for more than six hours, Gu Pan was already very tired. You showed no mercy to her. She took you into the safe zone with difficulty. You passed the simple search by the "Safe Zone Import and Export Management Committee". You are all legal citizens with resident ID cards, so you were allowed to pass.]

[You passed through the city wall and entered the safe zone. You finally returned to the place where you had lived for more than ten years. ]

[Not far away, about 20 meters away, there is a roadside stall selling small oranges with a mixture of green and yellow. Oranges are a very common fruit in this season and are cheap. Do you...?]

[You are planning to buy some oranges for your family, and you walk towards a cute little girl selling oranges.]

[“Beauty, how much is a pound of oranges?” You ask the price. ]

[She looks at you, wipes the sweat off her face, and answers you with a sweet smile: "Oranges are ten yuan a pound, little brother."]

[“It’s so expensive, you————”]

[You are dead, this journey is over, settlement in progress...]

[Comment: It's a wonderful return home with youth as your companion, all the way back to the womb. What a magical day! Your eagerness to return home makes you want to die very quickly, and your ability to seek death is unmatched.]

[You get the item: Self-severing meridians (epic)]

[Self-severing Meridians (Epic): A bottle of pure water-like drink, but a golden epic. If you use it actively, you will die, and even gods can't save you, really.]

[Number of times opened today: 2/3]

……

In the wasteland, in the shelter, Xu Shu opened his eyes with a serious expression.

How did I die? Why did it feel like I was hit by a floating cannon? I didn't feel anything at all, and I was killed instantly?

The little girl who bought oranges was squatting on me?

This time, even though I didn’t do anything, I got the epic item “Self-Severing Meridians” as a reward!
So, that orange-selling girl is an epic, no, a legendary transcendent being???
What level is she? How can she defeat me in seconds?

Questions popped up in his mind one after another, and Xu Shu was really confused.

However, I don't know her at all.

Damn it, no grudges or hatred, why?
Isn't it illegal to kill someone in the city?

Can I go back to this house?
