"It's very cold..."
This was Fang Lin's first feeling after regaining consciousness, and his conditioned reflex wrapped the thick fur tightly around him. However, he trembled as he summoned the crossbow from the nightmare memory to his waist, then reached out to touch it.
The bow is here, life is here.
The metal was cold and greedy, absorbing the temperature of his fingertips. Fang Lin's fingers were trembling violently as he struggled to open his eyes. The first thing that appeared in his blurry vision was...
Corpse.
A man, a woman and a child, all with wide open dull empty eyes.
The number is just right, a family of three, stiffly lying within two meters of him. The three people died with their eyes wide open, their expressions were quite innocent, and they looked even more desolate and terrifying.
Fang Lin's thoughts quickly turned, looking at the child's body, his heart had a kind of apathy and anger. But this feeling was soon suppressed by reason. Without reliable strength as a guarantee, everything else is empty talk.
He struggled to get up and saw that the environment around him was a simply decorated living room. At this time, the door next to him suddenly opened, revealing Ruan Mingqiang's dark, thin and cold face. He stared at Fang Lin faintly:
"Are you awake?"
Fang Lin immediately realized that this person was putting himself together with the corpse, which was actually a kind of silent psychological threat. However, he immediately asked back:
"Save me?"
Ruan Mingqiang sneered:
"Who did you think it was?"
Fang Lin was silent, Ruan Mingqiang looked at his pale face:
"Let's go have something hot to drink."
Fang Lin did not refuse, and his stiff body could not resist the temptation of the hot drink. As soon as he walked into the adjacent bedroom, he saw a raging fire burning inside, with several pieces of wooden furniture scattered around as fuel sources, and a kettle on a simple wooden frame emitting steam.
Ruan Mingqiang handed over a cup of scalding hot coffee, Fang Lin greedily held it, took a sip, closed his eyes and silently savored the bitter flavor and warmth spreading throughout his body. He let out a comfortable sigh, unintentionally touching the wound on his chest again, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he looked outside and said:
"Has the city lost power?"
"Yes." Ruan Mingqiang said simply: "The strong wind blew down five iron towers that supplied electricity."
Two people sat silently opposite each other, but Fang Lin thought for a moment and took out another life detector that looked like glasses and handed it over.
"This is my gratitude."
Ruan Mingqiang's eyes flashed, and he took it over and put it on, nodding slightly. Fang Lin knew that in this cruel world, friendship was nothing but nonsense, only self-interest was eternal, doing a favor without expecting anything in return might be possible, but absolutely not for someone as ruthless as Ruan Mingqiang who wouldn't even spare children! Rather than waiting for him to make a move, it's better to take the initiative and grasp the situation.
"How many more top-quality flying knives are needed?" Fang Lin continued to ask.
Ruan Mingqiang looked at him and said directly:
"Four."
Fang Lin originally didn't lack this, and immediately handed over four high-quality flying knives. He said lightly:
"This is part of my pay. If I can get out alive, there will be thanks."
Ruan Mingqiang nodded in satisfaction. Fang Lin thought for a moment and finally couldn't help but ask out of curiosity:
"What did you get after killing the test subject?"
Ruan Mingqiang sneered and shook his head, while Fang Lin tentatively asked:
"Is it because you didn't save me?"
Ruan Mingqiang sighed and said:
"It was already dead before I stabbed it with that one knife. It didn't drop anything, otherwise I would have picked up the key first and not saved you."
He spoke bluntly, which didn't make Fang Lin uncomfortable at all. Ruan Mingqiang asked instead:
"Is it that elite fatty guy who got killed?"
Fang Lin sighed and said:
"If I could have killed it, would I still be running around like a madman in the gun supermarket? I just took advantage of its death to slip inside and grab two things. One is this detector you gave me, and the other is a golden crossbow that requires high spiritual power, which I've already equipped."
His words were half true and half false, and Fang Lin had also noticed that Ruan Mingqiang was a skilled swordsman. He wouldn't be very interested in the Golden Crossbow, which required high spiritual energy, and it wasn't worth risking a fight with himself to take it by force. Indeed, Ruan Mingqiang only took a few glances, saw the unique glow on the golden equipment, and knew that some excellent blue equipment required soul binding before use. As for the Golden Crossbow, he naturally sighed a few times and gave up.
At this time Fang Lin suddenly realized that there were only 10 hours left before the plot character arrived! He exclaimed:
"How long have I been unconscious?"
Ruan Mingyuan coldly laughed and said:
"It's a miracle I can wake up at all. Haven't you seen that I've been thrown away with the dead?"
The two of them fell silent, Ruan Mingqiang leaned against the wall and dozed off, while Fang Lin stared at the fire and thought about his future actions. Probably because he was too injured, after a long rest, his physical strength had not fully recovered, and his chest still hurt slightly when he coughed or spoke.
The night outside was still a deep silver, and the sound of the wind had not yet subsided. Fang Lin closed his eyes to rest his mind, but secretly opened the box he had taken from the Weisi Building. Inside were two threads of gel-like substance. The Dream Walker's mark quickly gave him a hint:
"Hidden Task: Advanced Life Detector Completed. Task Reward: Obtain Life Detector Type E."
At this time, the two rubber bands suddenly disappeared. After Fang Lin took off his glasses, he realized that there was an extra fine inner frame inside the temple of the glasses. When using the Dream Sign to detect it, he found that its attribute had changed greatly:
"Life Detector (Type E): Special Equipment, Strength +1, Spirit +1, Requires 15 or more Spirit to equip. Attached Skill: Detection, able to obtain detailed information about surrounding target objects. Can be carried out of this world. Detection cumulative count: 5 times. After the cumulative count is consumed, it must be recharged in the Dreamspace before use. Exchange for 500 points."
Fang Lin was overjoyed in his heart, the use of this thing is naturally great, and it's not necessary to say more. Although there are limitations on the number of uses, it can increase its own attribute and surname, and it's still an E-type, so he's worried that there will be room for improvement in the future. He thought about his actions again, but fatigue finally caught up with him, and he fell asleep once more.
