Chapter 316 Fat Snake
Chapter 316 Fat Snake
[Lu Youyou: Collect uncommon supplies, the more diverse the better, can be exchanged for insect-killing elixir.]
After these words were spoken, many people sent private messages to Lu Youyou out of consideration for the insect-killing elixir.
Valuable resources can be exchanged for more insect-killing elixir, and even less valuable resources that Lu Youyou doesn't have can be exchanged, though for less.
She put all the supplies she got into Mimi's living area in the gang's breeding farm.
Not only Lu Youyou, but every member of the gang traded their own things for Mimi's things that she had never eaten before.
Three hours later, Mimi successfully gained five pounds.
Although there are still quite a few people messaging Lu Youyou privately, Mimi has already eaten all the things they offer to exchange, so the success rate is very low.
"Master, whose supplies should we copy today?"
Lu Youyou suddenly had a brilliant idea: "Can we copy adults' clothes?"
Da Rui: ...You can do that?
"Let me try?"
Lu Youyou nodded to Da Rui.
A flash of green light appeared... but disappeared in less than a second.
Da Rui said dejectedly, "I can't copy the adults' things."
"It's alright, let's just copy the players' data then."
Da Rui said in a tearful voice, "But the skill has already been used, it can't be used again."
Lu Youyou wasn't disappointed. From the moment she proposed copying the adults' things, she was prepared to get nothing in return.
After all, testing means the unknown, and since it is unknown, things may not develop in the best possible way.
"It's okay, the skill will be off cooldown the day after tomorrow. It's not like you can't use it anymore, don't cry."
Da Rui sobbed and gave a soft "Mmm".
"boom!"
There was a sudden loud bang from the side of the car, as if it had collided with something.
But her sense of smell and sight told her that there was no one else around.
The navigation system continued to operate, and the car continued to move at a constant speed. There were no announcements from strangers or NPCs.
"Boom!"
There was another sound, and this time Lu Youyou heard it clearly; it came from below the middle window on the left!
She winked at Little Crow, who shrank and flew out the moment Lu Youyou opened the window, its feathered arrows poised to be released.
Upon seeing what was under the glass, the little crow exclaimed, "Master, come out and see! It's an insect!"
Lu Youyou wondered, what kind of insect could generate such a powerful force?
She instructed the navigation system to stop, then got out and saw something that surprised Little Crow.
Under the glass window and above the tires, a green worm more than a meter long was clinging to the surface.
The back of the worm is covered with colorful blocks that are pieced together to form a unique and unsettling pattern.
It resembled the gloomy face of an old man, or a skull from which flesh had been removed.
Seeing Lu Youyou come down, the green worm didn't attack her. Instead, it continued its previous action, banging its tail against the car, making a loud banging sound.
"Master, the green worms seem to just want to go inside; they don't seem to want to attack us," said the crow.
As Lu Youyou listened to the green worm's increasing force, many questions arose in her mind.
The cloth strips soaked in the insecticide solution were still wet, so how were the insects able to crawl on her car?
She was wearing insect-repellent earrings and wasn't far from the green bugs, so why weren't they driven away?
What could be in her car that would prevent such a large bug from attacking people and only targeting the car?
"That snake!"
Little Crow and Lu Youyou spoke in unison.
Upon hearing the word "snake," the green worm stopped, turned its head 180 degrees, and began to hiss leisurely as it ran down the road.
Lu Youyou then realized that this was not a green worm at all, but a snake that had become an enlarged version of a worm!
The forked tongue of a snake in its mouth is the most direct evidence.
Now, Lu Youyou was even more certain that the green snake had come looking for the red, tailless snake.
"The red snake is indeed with me. I'm feeding and caring for it well. It's not right for you to come up here and smash my car."
With a flick of its tail, the green snake revealed a small mountain of glittering gold coins on the ground.
Lu Youyou thought to herself, "No wonder he can eat so much and look so plump. It turns out this monster has so much money."
"Okay, I'll take the gold coins. I'll bring the Red Serpent down for you now. Just stop smashing my car."
Lu Youyou got into the car, carrying the box and the red snake together, with the purpose of showing the green snake the red snake's living environment to prove that she had not abused the red snake.
The water in the basin was crystal clear, without a trace of impurity, and the food bowl was full of bamboo worms that the red snake couldn't finish eating.
The green snake was initially very happy, circling the transparent box incessantly.
Lu Youyou guessed that it wanted to coil up the box, but it was too fat to do so.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, its tail slammed angrily to the ground, and the green snake kept flicking its tongue.
Lu Youyou immediately explained, "I didn't do its tail. If I wanted to, I wouldn't need to keep it, right?"
"His-"
The red snake also flicked its tongue, and the two snakes communicated in snake language, which Lu Youyou could not understand.
However, she could tell that the red snake was helping her explain to the green snake, and that the green snake had no intention of attacking her.
Even when it saw that the red snake's tail had broken off, it only angrily slammed its fist on the ground; it didn't attack anyone.
It's more like he's annoyed that Lu Youyou didn't raise the red snake properly, rather than angry that Lu Youyou hurt the red snake.
“Are you leaving? I’ll open the suitcase and I won’t stop you,” Lu Youyou said.
The green snake shook its head, waved its tail again, and released a small mountain of gold.
"Keep an eye on my daughter. I'll come back for her after I've killed all those things."
It turns out this green snake can talk; Lu Youyou thought it couldn't speak human language.
"Sure, I'll take care of it for you in exchange for the gold coins. What's its name? Can it talk?"
"It can't speak human language, so you don't need to know its name. Just keep it like this, and I'll find you when I'm done with my work."
As soon as he finished speaking, the green snake disappeared.
Lu Youyou put all the gold coins into the backpack compartment.
Including the previous batch, it totals 300,000.
Lu Youyou was glad that she kept the snake with the broken tail and didn't throw it away after finding the real cherry.
The car was dented by the green snake's tail. Lu Youyou used a basic vehicle repair card before she could get into the car with the transparent box.
"Xiao Hong, I'll call you Xiao Hong from now on. It's your dad's fault for not telling me your name."
"His-"
The snake looked very angry.
"Then I'll call you Little Snake. You need a nickname."
The little snake coiled up, forming a standard meme-worthy poop shape, like a pathetic act of resistance born of helpless compromise.
Lu Youyou suppressed a laugh, put the little snake on the kitchen table, added some fresh water to her basin, and then went to the living room.
My watch is vibrating again.
It's a lively public chat.
[Player 222223: Today I wanted to buy something from someone I'd traded with before, but I suddenly noticed that many people's avatars in the trade history had disappeared.]
[Shi: That's normal. I'm dying too. I've used up all the insect repellent and insecticides for my car, and now those bugs are gnawing at it.]
[Wen Yuan: Hmm... Is it possible that you could trade with Lu Youyou for insect-killing elixir? She collects rare things, regardless of their value; she even took my insect-eaten table last time.]
[Player 8988222: Huh? Really? Why didn't you tag me in the public chat if there was such a good thing? You made me waste so many good opportunities.]
Because of Wen Yuan's words, people who didn't know Lu Youyou was accepting gifts started messaging her privately.
However, no one tagged all members in the public chat, as they were all afraid of being competed with by others.
Lu Youyou meant well; she directly quoted Wen Yuan's words and tagged all the members.
Now, almost everyone, except those who don't care about their watches vibrating, will see this message.
Lu Youyou's private messages were flooded once again.
Mimi will once again be greeted with a large batch of things she has never tried before.
