Chapter 25 I'm not cough syrup, why are you chasing me?
Lu Fei told her about the unpleasant things that happened at the Blazing Fire Base through the mini-system.
When she learned that Lu Xue had successfully returned to the Lu family after forcibly taking Feng Tianhe offline, she was extremely surprised.
"Wow, the female lead in this book is utterly depraved, how come the plot hasn't fallen apart yet?"
[It's because the female lead's character in this book was criticized to the top of the "rotten banana" list that the host accepted the mission to turn the plot around.]
So don't worry about the plot falling apart, just go for it!
In Lu Fei's mind, the little honey badger was rolling around in a pile of gold and silver treasures, its white fur swaying as it looked like a little money-grubber.
Now that the plot has completely deviated, Lu Xue not only lost the opportunity to awaken her superpowers, but even lost a few admirers, which made Lu Fei feel refreshed.
"Lu Fei, have some water."
Lu Fei was lost in thought when a kettle suddenly appeared in front of her.
After Luo Feiyu fawned over Lu Fei, she gave Gu Changge a provocative look.
The outcome is still uncertain, and everyone could be a dark horse. Before Lu Fei arrives at the Hongjian base, he has a chance to poach talent. He doesn't believe that once they arrive at the Phoenix base, with such a good environment, they won't be able to retain people.
Gu Changge was furious when she saw Luo Feiyu. She snatched the water bottle from his hand and turned it into warm water in just a few seconds by activating her superpower.
"Sister, you'll feel better if you drink some hot water."
After speaking, Gu Changge looked at Luo Feiyu provocatively, and the two of them could almost hear the crackling of electricity between them.
Along the way, the two team leaders had been at loggerheads, which everyone had gotten used to and didn't take them seriously. Instead, they all stared intently at the roasting chicken in the campfire.
Ever since Lu Fei purified them, everyone has looked down on ordinary food. Knowing that in addition to crystal cores, she can also sell gold and silver jewelry, they would plunder every time they passed by abandoned shopping malls and gold shops.
The win-win situation resulted in everyone visibly gaining weight.
"Captain, stop playing around, it's time to eat!"
Hu Dabao was excitedly holding up a skewer of roasted chicken, waving it at Gu Changge to eat, when suddenly a yellow shadow flashed past his eyes.
"Huh? A big yellow rat just flew by?" Hu Dabao scratched his head, thinking he was hallucinating, but the next second he realized something was wrong. "Captain, my chicken is gone!"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Hu Dabao's private parts, and only then did he realize what he had said.
She squeezed her legs together, feeling both ashamed and embarrassed, and pointed at her empty hands with a look of utter disbelief.
"Where are you looking? I'm talking about the roast chicken in my hand, which was snatched away by that big yellow rat!!"
"Stop bragging. You clearly want to eat it all by yourself. If you don't bring out the roast chicken soon, we'll take it out and roast it."
Everyone burst into laughter, while Hu Dabao's face flushed with anger.
However, the next second, everyone's laughter stopped, because everyone else's roast chicken was gone too.
"Holy crap!! It's actually true!"
"Captain, my chicken is gone too! My huge roasted chicken!!"
In a post-apocalyptic world where meat is more valuable than life, stealing someone's roast chicken is equivalent to stealing their wife and killing their parents.
Everyone picked up their tools and prepared to find the culprit, but half an hour later, not only was the roast chicken gone, but they were also exhausted.
"Big sister, stay with us and don't leave."
Gu Changge and Luo Feiyu sensed something was wrong and intuitively felt that the "big yellow rat" everyone was talking about was not so simple, fearing that something might happen to Lu Fei.
Lu Fei nodded and obediently walked between the two, but seeing the group of teammates who were crying and howling because they had lost their food, she sighed helplessly.
“Go and get some more mutated animals, and I’ll purify them for you,” she said, pausing for a moment. “This time it’s free.”
Upon hearing that it was free, everyone's gloomy mood vanished instantly, and they ran off yelling. In less than half an hour, they returned with a bountiful harvest.
They all looked at Lu Fei with anticipation, like large dogs waiting to be fed.
"Purify!"
With a flash of golden light, the mutated chickens returned to normal. Although everyone had seen it many times, they still found it amazing each time, especially the fragrant aroma, which made them feel refreshed.
"Alright, you guys hurry up and grill it..."
Lu Fei withdrew her hand, but before she could finish speaking, she felt a tightness around her neck. She was grabbed by the back of the neck and snatched away like a chick.
The high speed made Lu Fei's eyes water from the wind. After a while, she turned her head and was so shocked that she gasped.
That's not a big yellow rat, it's clearly a leopard!
Lu Fei's mind went blank for two seconds. She couldn't understand why there was a leopard here. Was it going to eat her or strangle her and hang her on a tree to dry as food?
She didn't know how much time had passed, but just when Lu Fei felt she was about to become the first unlucky person to hang herself in the leopard's mouth, it finally stopped.
"Cough cough cough..."
Lu Fei was finally able to breathe freely, but before she could catch her breath, she felt a wet, barbed tongue lick her face.
ヽ(*.>Д<)o゜
Lu Fei covered her face and retreated quickly in a panic. Looking at the huge leopard in front of her with grayish-white eyes, she felt her vision go black.
My life is over!
[Host, host, he's a rare animal-type ability user, currently in a berserk phase. If you purify him, he'll be stronger than six people, and you can finish the mission instantly!]
The little honey badger in his mind was spinning excitedly. If it weren't a virtual entity, it would have loved to jump out and fight the big leopard in front of it.
Lu Fei also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as this person was purified, not only would his life be out of danger, but she would also obtain an unlimited supply of resources.
So I quickly reached out to purify the leopard, but... the leopard seemed to have lost its mind and refused to cooperate no matter what.
They toyed with Lu Fei like cats playing with a mouse, exhausting her to the point of near collapse, yet they didn't even manage to touch a single hair on the leopard's head, let alone purify it.
"No, is he sick? I'm trying to cleanse him, so why is he running away?"
Lu Fei was so exhausted that she lay on the ground and couldn't get up no matter what, while the leopard not far away was happily wagging its tail and looking in her direction, as if waiting for her to come and catch it.
Its golden fur shimmered in the sunlight, which only fueled Lu Fei's hatred.
This superhuman has lost his reason; his thinking is like an animal's. He probably thinks you're just playing with him.
"Screw him, I'm not purifying him, okay? I'm going back."
Lu Fei got up in anger and turned to walk back the way she came, but she was dragged back by the leopard after only a dozen steps.
She was indignant, so she stood up again, walked away, and was then carried back.
This went on and on until she was completely exasperated.
She was invulnerable to swords and spears, unafraid of being bitten by leopards, but she couldn't beat that fool and could barely move an inch.
Unable to purify or escape, Lu Fei felt like a little turtle trapped in a jar, so angry that she pulled at her hair and screamed like a madwoman.
"I'm not cough syrup, why are you chasing me like that...Are you crazy...?"
Lu Fei jumped up and down, cursing the leopard. The leopard tilted its head and looked at her for a while. The next second, a hot roasted chicken fell to the ground at her feet.
Looking at the food, Lu Fei realized she was a little hungry. She stopped arguing, sat on the ground, imagined the chicken as the leopard in front of her, and viciously ate it into her stomach.
I wonder if Mom is worried, if people will find me. If I had known, she wouldn't have purified those chickens...
Suddenly, Lu Fei had a flash of inspiration. She thought of something, looked at the roast chicken in her hand, and burst into laughter. She had a way to leave.
