Survival in the neighborhood: Give me a piece of bread every day

"Boss Chen, the team has assembled, we can head back now."

Li Jia stepped forward to report to his superior.

"Okay, let's go back then."

Chen An agreed, then looked at the disheveled woman.

"Luo Qing, you come with us."

Then, he led Jiang Lai and the other girls into the crowd.

The team members have already made way for them.

They knew that the leader always walked in the middle when he came out.

Therefore, it is important to cultivate the habit early on, reserve a spot for them, and let them walk into the crowd.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Jiang Lai took out a lightsaber from her backpack.

Press the button, and a blue sword instantly appears.

She casually moved her hand twice, and the sword began to hum.

Upon seeing this, Luo Qing strode over to Jiang Lai's side, her eyes shining.

Staring curiously at the lightsaber in Jiang Lai's hand, he asked, "What kind of weapon is this? I've seen similar concepts in our country before, but we've never actually built one!"

"This is a lightsaber. Press here to bring up the blade, and press again to retract it."

Jiang Lai said.

While speaking, he also gave her a demonstration.

She felt that Luo Qing had seen things clearly and would no longer ask any more pointless questions.

Luo Qing looked at her: "Then can I have one for research?"

"You'll have to ask that, honey."

Jiang Lai said directly.

She wasn't just passing the buck.

However, this kind of thing definitely needs to be decided by Chen An.

Luo Qing nodded and immediately turned to look at Chen An.

He asked, "Sir, may I have a lightsaber? I only need it for research; I won't do anything else with it."

Chen An glanced at Luo Qing and said calmly, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

She's on her way now; her research equipment hasn't been moved there yet.

Even if you gave it to her, she wouldn't be able to study it.

It's good that she doesn't have any weapons now.

Normally, with so many of them, she wouldn't be harmed.

Once the team reached the perimeter of the residential area, some members quickened their pace and went inside.

Luo Qing slowed her pace, looking at the gate of the residential area and the long, tall wall.

He murmured in surprise, "When did such a large residential area appear out of thin air here?"

Chen An was standing right next to her, so he naturally heard what she said.

He looked down at her: "Appeared out of thin air? Hasn't this happened before?"

Luo Qing shook her head.

Although she didn't care much about these things.

I just want to do my research well.

But she couldn't be mistaken that a residential complex had suddenly sprung up from the vacant lot.

Huo Ling'er exclaimed in surprise, "So our neighborhood appeared out of thin air!"

"Yes, at least to this world, it appeared out of thin air," Jiang Lai said calmly.

They had never thought of this angle before.

They didn't mention the neighborhood again.

Instead, they followed the group into the residential area and headed towards Building 27.

After they arrived at the building, Chen An said, "This is the building where we live."

Luo Qing looked around, and finally her gaze fell on the large building downstairs that was partially illuminated by the streetlights. She then quickly walked up to it.

She reached out and touched the tower, feeling the coolness of the iron structure with her fingertips.

Under the streetlights, the light in her eyes shone even brighter.

"Mr. Chen, what kind of building is this? I've never seen anything like it before!"

"Heavy crossbow tower".

Chen An gave a simple answer.

"Can I disassemble it for research?" Luo Qing pressed.

"Absolutely not, this is our lifeline."

Wang Ziyan said directly.

Let's not even mention that arrow towers are for survival.

The sheer value of building it is enough to deter anyone from dismantling it.

Bai Lu frowned and said, "Why do you want to study everything?"

Seeing her talent, she wanted to study people.

Upon seeing a lightsaber, she wanted to study it.

Now that she sees the arrow tower, she wants to study it.

He really is a madman!

"These are so novel, I'm really curious!"

Luo Qing spoke truthfully, her eyes burning with fervor.

Items that previously only existed in concepts are now real objects, and some can even be put into use.

Of course she was curious.

"Let's go upstairs first."

Chen An said calmly, and then walked towards the stairwell.

Before turning around, he glanced at Luo Qing and thought to himself: The madmen in the research community are truly insane.

However, if she didn't have this tenacity and dedication in her research.

They probably don't even have her current abilities.

We arrived at the room door.

Chen An opened the door and said to the woman, "Come in."

Luo Qing stepped into the room and looked around.

Just then, a virtual panel suddenly popped up in front of Chen An's eyes.

A red exclamation mark is flashing above it, along with red prompt text—

[If an outsider is detected, should they be evicted or invited to become a resident?]

Chen An raised his eyebrows.

Even when Alice and Evelyn, residents of other neighborhoods, entered their rooms yesterday, they did not receive this notification.

He turned to look at Luo Qing, wondering to himself: Is this local actually considered an outsider in their room?

Luo Qing was unaware of Chen An's thoughts.

Instead, he stared at the virtual panel that had appeared out of nowhere, his eyes wide with surprise.

She stepped forward and tentatively touched the panel, but her hand passed right through it.

"What kind of novel technology is this?"

Amazing, absolutely amazing.

Their technology is so advanced!

At the very least, she felt that even if monsters didn't descend upon the world and it were allowed to develop normally, it still wouldn't be able to achieve this level of technology.

Chen An did not explain her question, but instead invited Luo Qing to join the room.

Only if she becomes a resident can he be sure that this woman will not betray him.

Otherwise, this local who can control monsters is a ticking time bomb.

After Chen An successfully invited her, a virtual panel popped up in front of Luo Qing.

You have become a resident of room 009527...

Name: Luo Qing

Gender: Female

【Strength: 3】

[Agility: 4]

【Intelligence: 7】

Satiety level: 68/100

"Honey, Luo Qing has a panel now! It's amazing, she didn't have one before."

The egret asked curiously.

Previously, Luo Qing was just a local who knew nothing about panel talents or other related things.

Now that she's joined the room, she actually has her own control panel?

"Moreover, her basic attributes are not low, and her intelligence is also very high."

Jiang Lai looked at Luo Qing's panel and said calmly.

After listening to their words, Luo Qing looked at her control panel with great curiosity.

"This is the panel you were talking about? I have it too?"

She was pleasantly surprised and plopped down on a stool to study it slowly.

Luo Qing's lips curled up in a smile, her expression one of delight, and she murmured softly, "It's like a fully evolved AI, such advanced technology!"

Chen An looked at Luo Qing, who was already deeply engrossed in it.

Bai Mengjie helped him remove his armor, and he said, "I'm going to take a shower first."

The next second, with a thought, he used his teleportation skill to arrive in the bedroom.

Avril glanced at it, then jogged after it, smiling brightly, "Darling, I'll go with you~"

Bai Lu, who had originally intended to do the same, followed suit: "Avril, you actually stole my lines!"

Avril took Bai Lu's arm, her eyes crinkling as she smiled and said, "Then let's do it together! Let's serve Darling together, there's no question of fighting over him."

"That's more like it."

The egret raised its chin and said proudly.

Soon, joyful sounds of playful laughter came from the bathroom.
