Chapter 236 Hungry Ghost Apocalypse I’m Just a Picky Eater

Chapter 236 "The End of the Hungry Ghost" I'm just picky about food

Xue Yang was confused at this moment: "The Jiang family doesn't lie, so what are you talking about?"

There was no one else nearby at this time, and the two of them usually only communicated in Chinese, so there was no need to worry about being overheard.

"Have you heard about the whole story of today's attack?" Jiang Qian asked without answering.

"Ah, people here say that you saved Monat in times of crisis and fought off the attackers. Is there any problem?"

Jiang Qian thought for a while: "I threw him out as bait."

"Fish, bait?!" Xue Yang was shocked and confused.

"That's not the point."

Jiang Qian then shared the key points of the information he got from Hei Fengyi with Xue Yang:

"The attacker was the guy we met last time, a three-state fusion rattlesnake. By devouring humans, he maintained the free use of super-species abilities and unlocked the ability to create groups through infection."

"From the information obtained from him, it can be known that among the survival methods available to super-species players, devouring humans and devouring crawlers may be two mutually exclusive advancement paths."

Jiang Qian picked up a branch from the ground, drew three routes on the sand, and pointed at the first and second routes respectively:

"Black Windbreaker initially chose cannibalism. His way of advancement is to continue cannibalism in order to maintain super-species abilities and create a group of people."

"Try to apply this logic: other players who have chosen to eat crawlers will most likely continue to eat crawlers to maintain their abilities and advance to new skills."

Having said this, Jiang Qian pointed to the third line and put a question mark:

"But we, who have chosen neither to eat humans nor reptiles, have maintained human eating habits and survived to this day. How do we reflect on our way of survival?"

"Say, Xue Yang."

Xue Yang was stunned for a moment and said in a calm tone: "Teacher Jiang, you know my level."

"This is a summary that elementary school students will make."

"Then why the hell are you asking me, you haven't graduated from elementary school?!"

Xue Yang slapped the top student with an extremely inflated face, then quickly shrank after 3 seconds, and analyzed seriously:

"Well...to summarize, how to embody our way of survival, this..."

Jiang Qian took out an uneaten steamed bun from his pocket and waved it in front of Xue Yang's eyes.

Xue Yang suddenly had an idea!

"That's right, food!"

He pointed at the three lines drawn by Jiang Qian and said one after another: "Players who choose this path regain health and gain advancement by eating people. Those who choose this path eat crawlers, and our way of survival is to eat normal food." food!"

But Xue Yang immediately fell into confusion again:

"You can indeed be full by eating normal food. You can also use abilities after eating, but how do you advance..."

Jiang Qian reminded from the side: "With the same amount of food, you have never complained about being too full before."

Xue Yang looked at the empty market in front of him and gradually realized what Jiang Qian was referring to:

"So that's it! I said I don't feel hungry very often lately, and I can still save some food every day..."

"And even when he is hungry, he no longer has a strong appetite for the humans around him." Jiang Qian added.

"Is our hunger decreasing?"

"Well, I guess this is an unwritten hidden rule: hunger is a test for all players in the dungeon. The impatient will choose to obey their primitive instincts and eat humans or crawlers."

"Of course they will also receive immediate rewards, but their hunger or appetite does not seem to have weakened. On the contrary, it has become more intense as their survival methods advance."

Jiang Qian tried to continue reasoning:

"In contrast, those who guard against arrogance and impatience and have a bottom line will spend a greater price to obtain pitiful regular food."

"But the good thing is that abnormal hunger will subside with normal eating. At least this is my observation and experience so far."

With that said, he put the steamed buns away and stood up to cover the route on the ground: "Let's go, the real business is behind us."

Xue Yang was so impressed that he fell to the ground, as if his body and mind had just been baptized.

He followed Bian Qi and sighed sincerely: "As expected of you, Lao Jiang, you know things like a god!"

"Is there a possibility that I'm just picky about food," Jiang Qian said calmly, "except at home."

"That's right! How dare you at home? It's hard for me to imagine that our aunt is so beautiful, but how can the food she makes taste so bad!"

"And she's not ashamed but proud. Even I blush for her."

The two sang and harmonized, feeling the daily necessities of the real world in this apocalyptic world of hungry ghosts.

…

In the city library, Canyon Lao Liu tried his best to read through the books wrapped in ant nests nearby!

Finally, I found 75 foreign language books with biological illustrations that seemed to have a certain correlation with genetic variation...

However, the stack of books now is like a heavenly book to Canyon Lao Liu!

Facing this pile of incomprehensible books, the corners of his eyes twitched twice, and he couldn't help but curse:

"Damn! God damn A-level dungeon, this is definitely S-level difficulty, right?!"

Canyon Lao Liu never expected that despite his wise life, he would be killed by 26 letters.

He even began to miss Northeastern home-cooked food...

Don't look at that guy's lack of tune, the key is that he can speak English!

"Forget it! Things are unpredictable, let's find other clues first..."

Canyon Lao Liu thought while hiding the 75 selected books on the spot.

While hiding, he imagined that Qianlong Wuyong was also stumped by 26 letters. He suddenly felt a little gloating and felt much better.

He swallowed his saliva, touched his empty bag, and couldn't help but think of the good home-cooked food in Northeast China.

…

The northern suburbs of Lianhua City.

A group of fat and strong half-human and half-beast anteaters were walking on the street, heading towards the suburbs.

They were huge in number, and each of them was energetic and high-spirited!

Wherever they went, any creepers that accidentally passed by would be quickly killed and eaten without any ability to fight back.

Occasionally, they would stop and clean up the nearby "ant nest" as food; or raze the human settlement to the ground and choose the strong humans inside as their kind!

…

Ideal Town.

After a short period of adjustment, the town temporarily returned to normal life.

Occasionally, residents who were infected but not reported were "exposed", and they were quickly controlled and handed over to Jiang Qian for treatment.

Of course, most residents have completely abandoned their grudges against Jiang Qian and Xue Yang's "new variants" and truly treated them as their own people and got along with them in a friendly manner.

So, based on the immediate needs, Jiang Qian and the Monat team sorted out several main goals for the emergency outing mission:

First, the town is in urgent need of medicines, and it is necessary to go to the city hospital, mental hospital, private clinics and other places to search for possible residual medicines;

Second, go to the city library to retrieve "The Miracle of Genes" to promote Elizabeth's research;

Third, it is necessary to go to the police station, sporting goods stores and other places to search for more weapons.

The above needs just coincide with Jiang Qian's need to explore the "source of the disaster". At Monat's kind invitation, he naturally agreed to go together.

Before leaving, Jiang Qian reminded Xue Yang in the dormitory: "If the last situation happens, saving yourself is the prerequisite."

He also had a subtext that he didn't say: the ideal town can be abandoned if necessary.

Jiang Qian hadn't considered Ideal Town as his base yet, and hadn't thought about taking responsibility.

Of course, he didn't owe it to this place.

Xue Yang patted his chest and assured Jiang Qian at that time: "Don't worry, Old Jiang! I have to get out alive to share our aunt's specialty with you!"
