Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 105: I’m Not the Holy Mother in the Apocalypse 11
Mi Lu was amused by the boss’s scholarly way of speaking and let out a chuckle, which drew a puzzled glance from the bookish boss. Caught laughing, Mi Lu coughed awkwardly and forced a smile, saying, "Boss, do you have a particular fondness for ancient culture? Your speech carries an ancient charm."
The boss didn’t get angry; instead, he smiled gently at Mi Lu and said, "Indeed, all my friends say I’m soone born in the wrong era!"
After replying to Mi Lu, the boss looked at Lin Shuangshuang and continued, "Young lady, you must have noticed by now that my brother and I are trapped here. The food in this house is nearly gone, although the water supply is still adequate. But humans can’t survive on water alone. The bugs outside might seem weak to you, but they’re quite dangerous to us. Our speed is such that we can’t even hit them."
Saying this, the boss could not help but let out a bitter smile. "Frankly, it’s a bit of self-inflicted trouble. I used to be very proud of the exquisite and rare plants and trees I grew around my shop. Now, because of that, there are countless bugs at the entrance, making it impossible for my brother and to leave."
"You want to take you and your brother away from here?" Lin Shuangshuang understood his intention before the boss could finish speaking. It’s human nature to seek the protection of the strong when one feels weak.
The boss smiled awkwardly, clearly unaccustod to asking others for help. He knew that in such chaotic tis, taking along two burdens was not easy, so this scholarly boss added another sentence.
"I know such a request might be a bit too much. I’m hoping you’ll agree, but if you are unwilling, I only ask that you help find so food for my brother and . I will still give you these knives."
Lin Shuangshuang always remained silent, deep in thought. She was sowhat undecided. Given the chaotic world, forming her own team was necessary. Lin Shuangshuang was determined never to join soone else’s team and be restricted by them in this life.
The world was becoming increasingly dangerous, and going solo was not feasible. That was one of the reasons why Lin Shuangshuang never left Li Man’s team in her previous life.
In her previous life, Lin Shuangshuang’s reputation was ruined by those in Li Man’s team. Selfish, abandoning teammates—these abandoned teammates referred to the group of students who clung to Lin Shuangshuang like parasites.
In post-apocalyptic survival, the greatest fear is abandonnt and betrayal. The outside world is fraught with danger, and abandonnt and betrayal can have severe consequences. With this reputation, smaller teams outside naturally did not dare accept Lin Shuangshuang, which left her stuck within Li Man’s team.
Although Lin Shuangshuang planned to build her own team in this life, finding a solid base was tough. Currently, only Mi Lu, whom she trusted in both lifetis, was a loyal friend she could rely on. She didn’t know Li Wenxuan or the shop owner well.
Although in her previous life, Li Wenxuan’s hatred for betrayal suggested he wasn’t a likely betrayer, this Li Wenxuan hadn’t experienced betrayal. There was no hint of gloom between his brows. People often change their personalities after experiencing painful changes.
Lin Shuangshuang wondered if Li Wenxuan, having not gone through past experiences, was still the sa person who hated betrayal. Would he beco the betrayer he despised?
However, Lin Shuangshuang’s hesitation disappeared when the boss said that he wouldn’t force her if she was unwilling and only asked her to find so food. Lin Shuangshuang didn’t know what this man might beco in the future, but for now, he seed trustworthy.
Having made up her mind, Lin Shuangshuang didn’t put on airs and nodded directly, saying, "No problem, I can take you two brothers with ."
"That’s truly a huge relief. Rest assured, my brother and I won’t rely solely on you for protection. We’ll both strive to get stronger and not be a burden to you!"
The boss was sowhat excited by Lin Shuangshuang’s straightforward agreent and said with a touch of exhilaration, "From now on, we’re comrades. Let introduce myself. I’m Li Wenbo, and that’s my brother Li Wenxuan. We’re both cold weapons enthusiasts and have been jointly managing this cold weapons shop."
"I’m Lin Shuangshuang, and this is my good friend Mi Lu. We’re both college students from the Capital. Our current goal is to quickly return to the Capital to find our families. Do you two brothers have a place you want to go?"
After Lin Shuangshuang introduced herself, Mi Lu also greeted the brothers Li Wenxuan and Li Wenbo. This ti Li Wenxuan also joined in the small talk before answering Lin Shuangshuang’s question. "We don’t have any relatives left. Since you two want to go to the Capital, we’ll go with you."
Lin Shuangshuang nodded in satisfaction. This was the best scenario she had envisioned. It seed that these two teammates could now be confird. Next was the issue of improving the combat abilities of Li Wenxuan, Li Wenbo, and Mi Lu.
One must admit that heaven hasn’t completely abandoned humanity. Although people were left out of the first two major evolutions, they could enhance their strength and agility by consuming mutated plants, animal at, and insect eggs, along with intense physical training.
This process of becoming stronger, although difficult, wasn’t overly slow. The extent to which the human body could improve seed limitless. Lin Shuangshuang had even seen people with physical strength sufficient to withstand superpower users! Although such individuals were rare, they weren’t uncommon either.
Lin Shuangshuang noticed that both Li Wenxuan and Li Wenbo had a hint of pallor on their faces, likely due to not eating enough lately. Eating was crucial in the post-apocalyptic world. To enhance physical fitness, one couldn’t have an empty stomach, and to have the strength to travel and fight bugs, one also couldn’t be hungry.
"You two gather the things you need to take. I’m going out to scavenge so food. You’ll need to be full to have the strength to travel later," Lin Shuangshuang said to Li Wenxuan and Li Wenbo before planning to go out and find so food.
Li Wenbo saw Lin Shuangshuang about to search for food and quickly spoke up, "We still have so food in this store, enough for us to have a good al. There’s no need to search for food right now."
Lin Shuangshuang frowned slightly, "If you want to beco strong, stop eating those things you used to eat. Eat whatever I bring back with . I guarantee you’ll grow strong quickly."
Li Wenxuan and Li Wenbo were montarily stunned. They didn’t understand the connection between gaining strength and eating, but wisely refrained from arguing. They nodded obediently, indicating they would follow Lin Shuangshuang’s lead.
Lin Shuangshuang went out carrying an empty backpack and an empty water bottle. She planned to collect so nectar for consumption. When she arrived earlier, she noticed an extrely beautiful mutated rose outside. The nectar from a mutated rose was a treasure; not only was it delicious, but its strengthening effect was even better than insect at and eggs.
The bugs outside posed no threat to Lin Shuangshuang. Those that dared block her path were either kicked away or killed. She soon reached the vicinity of the mutated rose she had seen earlier.
However, before Lin Shuangshuang could reach the mutated rose, she heard the sound of a scuffle coming from outside!
