Survival in an apartment, starting with a stroke of luck on a plane

Lin Yu took it off his shoulder and handed it to Huochui.

Fire Hammer trembled slightly as if receiving a sacred object, his eyes filled with a pilgrimage-like light.

However, the instant its fingers touched the cloak—

*Snap! Snap!* Two crisp sounds!

[The Heavenly Cloak], like an offended nobleman, suddenly whipped up its two corners and struck Firehammer's rugged face with lightning speed, making a loud sound and even leaving two shallow red marks.

Firehammer was stunned for a moment after being hit, but instead of being angry, it became even more excited: "It has a temper! Good! It has sentience! Excellent! Now it deserves its power!"

It didn't mind at all; on the contrary, it was even more careful, almost holding the cloak, placing it on a huge worktable, and then picking up various strange magnifying glasses, energy sensors, and other tools, and began to study it with great enthusiasm.

He kept making sounds of amazement, such as "tsk tsk tsk," "I see," and "Wonderful!"

During those ten minutes, the sound of slapping against its face could be heard occasionally, accompanied by Fire Hammer's occasional gasps of pain, but it was completely absorbed in it, as if the pain was a spur to its exploration of knowledge.

Ten minutes later, Fire Hammer reluctantly returned the [Heavenly Cloak] to Lin Yu, turning back every few steps.

At this moment, its crimson face had several red marks, and it was even a little bruised and swollen, but its eyes were unusually bright and satisfied.

"Worth it! Absolutely worth it!" Firehammer waved his hand excitedly. "Those energy conduction problems that have been bothering me for so long seem to be getting somewhere! This price is totally worth it!"

Looking at the other person's pig-like head, Lin Yu awkwardly took the cloak, which still exuded dissatisfaction, and put it back on.

"It's nothing! It's nothing!" Firehammer laughed heartily, shaking the dust off the roof. "This little scratch is nothing! I've made a fortune! If you ever need anything repaired, just come to me! I'll give you a 20% discount! No! A 30% discount!"

The transaction was completed, and both parties were happy.

Lin Yu put the flowerpot into the delivery box and left the subway station in a good mood.

……

The delivery location, 【Spore Forest District】, is an extremely dangerous area in the south of the city. The air is filled with various hallucinogenic or corrosive spore clouds, and ordinary creatures dare not approach it.

Fortunately, the gas mask helmet on Lin Yu's head has the effect of protecting against gas and purifying the air. In addition, the superior performance of the multi-functional electric vehicle is also demonstrated. It can dive underwater and can also be turned into a sealed mode, so Lin Yu doesn't need to worry too much about these issues.

With the keen insight of his Sky Eye and the superior performance of his new vehicle, Lin Yu safely traversed the forest area filled with deadly spores.

Following the navigation instructions, he gradually approached the delivery location—a relatively clean clearing deep in the spore forest.

However, before they could get very close, the sounds of fierce fighting and the roar of colliding energy reached them, interspersed with a painful and angry female scream.

Lin Yu frowned, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

As he passed through the last, enormous, eerie clump of glowing mushrooms, the sight before him caused his pupils to shrink.

His view was a scene of utter devastation; huge flower vines were torn apart, and the ground was riddled with holes and slime.

One of the two sides in the battle was none other than his target customer—the "Symbiotic Flower Fairy," while its enemy was a terrifying giant burrowing worm with an extremely large body, nearly two meters in diameter, covered with a thick chitinous carapace, and covered with countless wriggling mouthparts.

As its name suggests, the flower demon's upper body was that of a fair-skinned, charming woman with long, emerald-green hair that danced like vines, while her lower body coexisted with a huge, beautiful, yet thorny, bizarre flower.

At this moment, she appeared extremely disheveled and angry, her beautiful face contorted with pain, her petals torn in several places, oozing green sap, and although the vines' attacks were fierce, they struggled to break through the worm's thick carapace.

The giant worm, however, was exceptionally ferocious. Taking advantage of its burrowing from the ground, it launched continuous sneak attacks, its mouthparts covered with sharp teeth frantically tearing at the flower fairy's vines and roots, and the mucus secreted from its body was highly corrosive.

The flower fairy was clearly at a disadvantage, retreating step by step. Her attacks had limited effect on the thick-skinned worms, while her own defenses were constantly being weakened.

"Damn it!"

Lin Yu cursed under his breath.

He didn't care whether the flower fairy lived or died, but he cared about his orders! What would happen to his orders if the flower fairy was killed by this bug? Wouldn't his five-star reviews be ruined?

Just then, the worm suddenly burst out of the ground behind the flower fairy, opened its blood-red maw, and rushed towards her relatively vulnerable flower stem with a vicious wind. The flower fairy was already struggling to deal with the attack from the front and was about to be bitten.

At this critical moment!

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Yu leaped off the speeding electric scooter, his cloak billowing around him as he soared into the air.

Lin Yu was in mid-air, and the [Azure Rose] had already appeared in his hand! Charged Shot · 2.

boom!

The bullet, burning with a ghostly blue hellfire, accurately pierced deep into the worm's open, slimy mouthparts.

boom!

Flames exploded instantly inside the worm's body. Although its outer shell was hard, its interior was equally fragile. The worm let out a sharp, agonizing scream, and its massive body writhed violently, its attack instantly interrupted.

The flower fairy had closed her eyes and awaited death, but unexpectedly, reinforcements arrived from the sky. She turned around abruptly and saw a human man leaping down from a strange black vehicle, his oddly shaped large revolver spewing destructive flames, saving it at the most critical moment.

The last rays of the setting sun pierced through the spore clouds, enveloping the flying figure and giving him a golden outline.

That calm gaze, decisive actions, and the intense light and shadow effects of the hellfire explosion were deeply imprinted in the flower fairy's eyes at that moment.

The immense shock of escaping from a desperate situation, coupled with the visually stunning "heroic entrance," caused the flower fairy, already in a state of extreme emotional turmoil, to momentarily lose her composure. An indescribable emotion, a mixture of gratitude, awe, and a strange attraction, surged wildly within her.

Lin Yu had no time to pay attention to the flower fairy's inner thoughts. Having landed successfully, he rolled to dissipate the impact, shouting urgently, "Xiangxiang, cloak, go!"

The Demon Sword hummed, and Liu Xiangxiang's figure shot out, transforming into an evil spirit that pounced on the worm. The icy ghostly energy clashed fiercely with the worm's stench.

The [Heavenly Cloak] also flew up automatically, like a red ghost, constantly whipping and interfering with the worm's senses and movements.

"Refine the Word Technique!" Lin Yu made a hand seal, and crimson spiritual fire surged out, scorching the worm's shell. Although it couldn't burn through it immediately, it caused the worm immense pain, and the shell crackled and popped.

The worm, in pain, became even more ferocious, violently throwing Liu Xiangxiang aside and its massive body crashing down on Lin Yu like a locomotive.

Lin Yu's eyes were cold; he neither flinched nor avoided the attack, and he raised the Azure Rose once more.

But this time, he aimed at the joint of the carapace that had been scorched by the spirit fire and was now somewhat brittle! Charged Shot - 1.

boom! boom! boom!

Three shots fired in quick succession, the demonic bullets precisely piercing the same spot.

Click!

With the sound of the shell shattering, the bullet successfully penetrated the worm's body. Although it was not fatal, it caused immense pain and internal damage.

The worm let out an even more piercing scream, and its movements suddenly froze.

Right now.

"What are you standing there for? Help!" Lin Yu shouted, reminding the flower fairy who seemed to be still in a daze.

The flower fairy suddenly came to her senses, and looking at the perfect opportunity that Lin Yu and the two powerful ghosts had created for her, a resolute and strange light flashed in her eyes.

She poured all her power into the thickest, sharpest vine, which instantly turned a brilliant emerald green, whistling through the wind, and like a javelin, pierced deep into the wound on Lin Yu's carapace with unparalleled precision.

Pfft—!

Green energy burst forth within the worm's body.

On the other side, the azure rose in Lin Yu's hand shone brightly as he charged up and fired 3.

boom!

With a deafening explosion, the giant worm's body was blasted into a bloody mess, with large amounts of slime splattering through the air along with the shattered flesh. The worm convulsed violently before crashing to the ground, where it remained motionless.

The battle is over.

Lin Yu put away his weapons and the ghost.

He first glanced at his phone to make sure the order status hadn't changed to "delivery failed" before he breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked towards the flower fairy, about to urge her to sign for the goods, when he saw her looking at him with an extremely complicated expression.

There was relief in his eyes, a deep sense of gratitude for surviving a disaster, but even more so... a gaze that was almost burning with intensity.

It has to be said that this flower fairy's face is indeed very beautiful. If you ignore its terrifying lower body, and this is in the real world, Lin Yu might even feel a little happy facing such a gaze. But unfortunately, there are no ifs.

This is a monster.

The flower fairy manipulated her vines, casually tossing aside the specially made flowerpots. Her eyes, like pools of water, gazed at Lin Yu, her voice trembling slightly with an unusual tenderness as she said, "Thank you... thank you so much... for saving my life."

"It's my job to ensure the order is completed smoothly," Lin Yu interrupted her calmly, maintaining his distance. "Please give me a five-star review."

The flower fairy seemed not to have heard his last sentence at all, and just stared blankly at his calm profile, saying to herself, "You...you are completely different from those cowards or opportunistic bastards who came before...You are strong, brave, and...and so calm..."

The enormous flower on her lower body slightly closed, then bloomed again, emitting an even richer, more intoxicating fragrance. Her voice grew softer and softer: "You are so cool. Only someone like you deserves my following."

At the same time, it took another deep look at the blood vine armor on Lin Yu's body.

"It's perfect. Everything is such a coincidence. You saved my life, and you happen to have an item on you that is very compatible with me. Perhaps this is God's arrangement."

Lin Yu frowned slightly, sensing that the atmosphere was a bit off, but he just wanted to get a good review and leave as soon as possible, so he could only continue, "Madam, please confirm receipt and leave a review."

However, at that moment, the flower fairy seemed to have made up her mind.

She stared straight at Lin Yu, and then her entire body, including the huge flower, began to emit a strong emerald green light.

"Since you saved me... then everything I have... is yours..." The flower fairy's voice held a hint of joy: "Please allow me... to follow you forever..."

Holy crap, what the hell is this?

Do monsters also have love-struck minds?

Are you even listening to me?

To Lin Yu's astonishment, the flower fairy's spirit actually detached itself from the symbiotic flowers, and the charming female figure transformed into a dazzling green stream of light.

The enormous, eerie flower below withered and decomposed rapidly, eventually coalescing into a pure, green sphere of light containing immense life energy.

Immediately afterwards, the green light led the ball of life energy, like a moth drawn to a flame, and it flew towards Lin Yu.

Lin Yu immediately tried to dodge.

However, a system notification in his mind interrupted him.

[The Symbiotic Flower Fairy has chosen to follow the player and voluntarily merges with the player's equipment, [Bio-Armor - Bloodvine +4]. The Symbiotic Flower Fairy and Bloodvine have a 95% compatibility rate, and the fusion success rate is 90%. Do you agree to the other party following you?]

[Upon agreement, the Flower Fairy will coexist with the Blood Vine, significantly enhancing equipment effects.] (Note: After successful coexistence, there is a high probability that the Flower Fairy will override the Blood Vine's consciousness; players should consider this carefully.)

"This?!" Lin Yu was taken aback when he heard the system notification in his ear.

This...this is like a windfall!

How could such a good thing happen to me?

Lin Yu did not refuse and directly agreed. It was just a Blood Vine, and he could afford to gamble on it. Moreover, after obtaining the fusion item from the blacksmith, he had some special ideas about the Blood Vine.

Therefore, the fusion of the Blood Vine and the Symbiotic Flower Fairy doesn't seem like a bad thing.

Since the blood vines weren't very obedient anyway, he didn't care that his consciousness had been overwritten.

As soon as Lin Yu chose "yes," a green light instantly enveloped the blood vine, which seemed to be greatly stimulated, writhing and swelling violently.

The dark red vines began to tremble violently, waving incessantly in the air. Lin Yu could clearly feel that the consciousness inside the blood vines was anxious.

This sense of urgency was even more pronounced than when Lin Yu had used electric shocks on it before. Clearly, it sensed the crisis and was now trying to escape it.

As time went by, emerald green veins, resembling leaf veins, began to appear on the blood vines, and even small, eerie yet beautiful flowers bloomed at some nodes.

[Bio-Armor - Bloodvine +4] is being symbiotically generated and fused!

Lin Yu could clearly feel that the originally ignorant, greedy, and occasionally restless consciousness inside the blood vine was being forcibly covered, devoured, and replaced by the flower fairy's clearer, stronger consciousness, which was filled with endless love and obedience for him.

This process lasted for more than ten seconds.

In the end, all the green light merged into the blood vine.

The new blood vine has turned into a strange color that is a mix of dark red and emerald green. Its shape seems more fluid and full of vitality, and its surface has a faint shimmering light, exuding an aura that is both dangerous and alluring.

At the same time, a clear, gentle, yet submissive female voice echoed in Lin Yu's mind, identical to the flower fairy's voice before, but with an added strange quality resulting from its fusion with the blood vine: "Master..."

Lin Yu immediately checked the equipment panel:

【Bio-Armor - Symbiotic Floral Vine】

Category: Armor

Grade: Silver

Defense: 250

Durability: 400/400

Effects: Strength +3, Constitution +3, Spirit +1

Bio-armor: As bio-armor, the symbiotic vine possesses certain plant-like biological characteristics. When inserted into the soil, it can absorb sunlight and ground nutrients to quickly heal itself and restore its durability.

Symbiotic Intelligence: The equipment gains a stable, loyal, and highly intelligent spirit that completely obeys the master's commands and is no longer at risk of going out of control.

It enables more complex communication and the execution of more precise instructions.

Life Drain/Bloom: When Bloodvine attacks, in addition to absorbing blood, it can selectively absorb the target's life force to nourish its master, or rapidly grow poisonous flowers with hallucinogenic and paralyzing effects in a designated area.

Plant Life Mode: Insert it into the ground, activate its skill, and it will transform into a plant life form with a silver-level biological panel, fighting for you.

Protector: The symbiotic vine has an extremely strong protective instinct; any target that attempts to harm player Lin Yu will be attacked.

describe:……

Lin Yu was speechless for a moment as he looked at the earth-shattering changes.

He just wanted to deliver takeout and get a five-star review... How did he end up with a "flower fairy" version of smart armor as a bonus? And this fusion process looks like the other party forcibly "paid" for it.

Fortunately, the phone notification sounded soon after:

[Ding! Order completed, 84 points earned.]

[Ding! Customer 'Symbiotic Flower Fairy' has given a five-star review!]

Positive reviews arrived... but it seems like the customers have disappeared as well.

Lin Yu looked at the new armor on his body, which had become quiet and docile, and even showed signs of attachment, and shook his head helplessly.

"Never mind... at least my strength has improved, and the threat of the Blood Vine has been eliminated."

Although the Blood Vine hasn't caused any trouble recently, its description on the panel hasn't been changed at all. This is the main reason why Lin Yu summoned all his combat forces during the battle but didn't use it.

If this thing goes crazy and attacks me on its own initiative, although it's unlikely to cause any major trouble given its strength, it would still be quite annoying.

It's a good thing that we can resolve this directly now.

Lin Yu hopped on his electric scooter and set off again.

......

The game has reached its third day.

As the first rays of morning light shone through the cracks in the dormitory window, Lin Yu opened his eyes precisely on time.

After several hours of deep rest, yesterday's fatigue was completely gone, and my mental and physical energy were restored to their best state.

He immediately picked up his phone to check.

[System Notification: Congratulations to player 'Witcher Elite' for winning yesterday's 'Single Order King' title! The reward has been sent to your apartment, please check. Number of orders completed yesterday: 16.]

As expected! A smile appeared on Lin Yu's lips.

A score of 16 is an overwhelming achievement in this treacherous world, a result he worked hard until almost midnight yesterday.

In fact, if it weren't for the large number of monsters at night, which greatly increased the danger and caused Lin Yu's speed to slow down significantly, he might have been able to deliver more orders. However, this number is already enough, considering that the second-place finisher only delivered 10 orders today.

Like Lin Yu, he must have bought a new car to achieve this level of efficiency.

As for the other players, apart from a few, most of them barely met their quotas with five orders.

Not many people died. As of today, the chat channel still shows 61 players still alive, compared to only a handful who died yesterday.

Lin Yu was clearly right; the weakest ones had all died on the first day, and those who survived were all quite capable.

Lin Yu looked at the bedside, where there was indeed another cardboard box.

Inside, there were two things: a points card that shimmered with a faint light, and a card with strange runes drawn on it.

[Delivery Points Card]: Earn 500 points upon use.

[Evaluation Modification Card] (Exclusive Reward for Single Kings)

Category: Special Item (Cannot be taken out of this world)

Effect: After use, you can select a completed order that has been recorded by the system and forcibly change its customer rating to "5-star". (Note: Only the rating can be modified; other penalties incurred due to order timeout, damaged goods, etc., cannot be changed.)

Description: "Negative review? No, you must have accidentally left a message." — A top-performing deliveryman who wishes to remain anonymous.

"Not bad." Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction. This card was similar to the previous [Order Elimination Card], both being tools designed to prevent negative reviews.

Lin Yu doesn't mind having too much of this.

[Current total points: 1890]

With a considerable number of points, Lin Yu planned to buy a few super batteries before setting off to keep in his backpack as backup, ensuring the electric vehicle's range.

After he finished washing up and getting ready, he was about to head out to begin his third day of deliveries when his phone suddenly rang urgently. It was Captain Bull's call.

"Kid, are you awake?" The bull's voice sounded somewhat serious, far less relaxed than yesterday.

"Just woke up, Captain, is something wrong?" Lin Yu's heart sank slightly, and he had a bad feeling.

"Damn it, that crazy woman is getting serious!" Bull cursed. "Just now, the system forcibly refreshed and locked an order assigned to you! The pickup and delivery points... are both in the north of the city!"

Lin Yu's eyes sharpened instantly: "How did it do that? Didn't it say that I needed a negative review to trigger the mandatory special order? Did someone give me a negative review while I was sleeping? That shouldn't be possible, aren't reviews supposed to be unchangeable?"

"It's not a bad review, it's a loophole in the rules!" Bull's tone was full of dissatisfaction: "It somehow managed to get a customer from the north of the city to place an urgent special order and pay an extremely high 'express fee' and 'designated fee'."

According to the company's policy of "prioritizing customers with special needs," the system bypassed the regular order dispatch process and forcibly assigned the order to you, who currently has the highest rating and the highest efficiency.

The reason given was, "Only elite riders can complete this urgent and crucial task!" Damn! What a high-sounding excuse!

Lin Yu fell silent.

Ms. Black Mist is using both overt and covert tactics, manipulating the rules to force him to go.

"What are the details of the order? What about the risk assessment?" Lin Yu asked calmly.
