Apocalypse: I pick up trash in a survival game

Chapter 8 Talent Registration, Shelter Construction

While Liu Zhengnan was asking questions about Suning, Zhang Li's family across the street were also answering questions.

"My talent is called the Scavenging Eyes, which can detect whether food is expired or poisonous!" When Suning said this, he silently added in his mind: "But this is only one of the functions."

When Liu Zhengnan heard Suning talk about his talent, he started recording.

Suning did not fully describe his innate abilities, he only mentioned that his Scavenging Eye was like the Identification Eye, and its effect was weakened many times.

She did this out of caution. After all, in this world, keeping a low profile and hiding one's strength can better protect oneself.

"The talent of being able to tell whether food is poisonous? Well, it's a relatively practical ability." Liu Zhengnan nodded as he recorded, expressing his affirmation.

After recording, Liu Zhengnan raised his head and looked at Suning, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

He seemed to want to find some flaws in Suning's expression and tone, but Suning was very calm and did not show any abnormality.

Seeing that he didn't find anything, he spoke again, "It's best not to go out unless you have something to do recently. Now because of the awakening of talents, many people think they have become the best and start to jump around. The outside world has started to become chaotic again."

Hearing this instruction, Suning nodded in agreement, "Okay, of course I won't run around. Instead of running around, I might as well save my energy and rest at home."

Liu Zhengnan finished recording the talents of this level and said, "Okay, if you have any questions, remember to report them to the community manager."

Suning nodded.

Just as Suning was about to return home, he made eye contact with Zhang Li again.

A hint of disdain flashed across Zhang Li's eyes.

"Suning? Your talent is so rubbish? You can only check if the food is poisonous? This is too useless, right? Unlike me, my talent can make me a strong man."

She wanted to show it off in front of Suning, but unfortunately there was nothing around for her to show, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

Suning heard her bragging but ignored her and turned away.

However, Zhang Li didn't seem to be willing to give up and continued, "Oh, what a pity! If you were any use, maybe you could help the shelter. But it doesn't matter. I'm only telling you this out of pity for you."

Suning stopped, looked back at Zhang Li, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly in a sneer.

"Really? Thank you so much for your concern. However, I think it is quite useful. At least I don't have to worry about being poisoned. As for helping, I still prefer to stay at home."

After saying that, Suning turned and left, leaving Zhang Li standing there alone, her face turning very ugly.

She wanted to retort, "You..."

Suning ignored him, rolled his eyes and went straight back into the house.

"The next game will be in a week. The first time was a bit rushed. Next time I enter the game I need to be well prepared. Of course I also need to have a goal to achieve. Otherwise it would be a waste of time to improvise."

When the end of the world is approaching due to natural disasters, the country will unify all useful material resources at the beginning.

Although rescue distribution.

But many people still cannot get daily necessities.

So next time she enters the game, she should collect some things that can change the extreme temperature, or things that can make her life comfortable.

The hot environment made Suning want to enter the dungeon as soon as possible.

She pulled out the ice-heat conversion pot.

Pour a bottle of water into it, press the ice water button, and instantly, a pot of ice water will be in it.

After pouring out the ice water, Suning drank it in one gulp. The cool feeling made her feel refreshed.

"Ice water should be what everyone wants most right now."

In the extreme temperature doomsday, the wires and cables outside had already been damaged by the high temperature.

Most homes do not have electricity.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to get ice. Water is a scarce resource now, let alone ice.

Suning thought about what he could put on the shelves of his store.

"Ice + water, these are absolutely rare resources. Someone will definitely buy them when they are put on the shelves." But at this moment she didn't want to get game coins, but other items.

"No, no one else has put water on the shelves. If I put it on the shelves, it will definitely attract attention. It's too high-profile. I will wait until someone else puts water on the shelves and see how it goes before putting it on the shelves."

Suning still feels that steady development is better. Even the official national store has not put its water source on the shelves. As a civilian who has no ability to protect himself, it is better not to be too high-profile.

Talent is something that cannot be controlled. If you have the talent to obtain other people's information, it would be bad if you find yourself there.

And why would she sell water to other people? She didn't even have enough for herself.

However, other supplies collected in the dungeon can be resold in the store.

For example, paper, for example, wet wipes.

It's extremely hot, but there's no water for you to take a shower, so using wet wipes to wipe your body is definitely a good deal.

Suning then started to clean up the house.

It was almost dawn and she was ready to rest.

After waking up and resting, another day begins.

Since the end of the world, although it is only extremely warm now, this is just the beginning.

Extreme weather and disasters indicate that there is more than one type of disaster: extreme temperatures.

Everyone is saving themselves.

When natural disasters began, the country built underground shelters across the country.

Suning also needs to work so that he can exchange his labor for food.

A little girl from Suning started working as a bricklayer in exchange for food.

This way there will be food exchange, plus relief supplies, so she doesn't starve to death.

"What talents have you awakened?"

"Have you heard? The son of the old Wang family awakened elemental abilities, and his attack power is terrifying. Not long after he registered, he was recruited by the authorities."

"Is this true? The talent I awakened is useless. It's just the ability to put on makeup. Look at my makeup. It only takes one minute to do it."

"Oh my god, how come you are so beautiful? You are still so beautiful in such a hot day. It turns out you have a natural talent for makeup. Have you saved up on all the cosmetics?"

"Hey, with the emergence of this survival game, I thought our lives would be a little better, but I didn't expect that although we can find some survival supplies in it, it is not safe. The six people living downstairs were all dead after the game ended."

"Hey, what's the end of this life?"

Listening to the gossip, Suning worked slowly.

Although she didn't move many bricks, the food she earned in a day was enough for her to eat.

Even though she still had food in her backpack, she couldn't let anyone know she had any supplies on hand.

After all, in this world, human hearts are unpredictable, and it is common for people to do whatever it takes to survive.

She knew very well that she had to protect her secret carefully, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

As a girl living alone, she needs to consider more.

Robbery, killing, and pillaging are not uncommon in the apocalypse, and she must remain vigilant at all times.

Her image is that of a poor orphan who cannot allow others to suspect her or find any clues. Only in this way can she ensure her own safety.

Yet, work remains essential.

But carrying bricks every day was too hard for her, especially when she woke up the next morning, she would feel unbearable pain all over her body.

So she resolved to find an easier, easier, and filling job where she could feed herself quietly without drawing attention to herself.
