The promise of slow wear for the rest of your life

Anol sighed, and said, "He has grown up, and it's time to learn to stand on his own. I can't support him forever."

Hearing this, Brother Li couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You have figured it out! If you want me to say, you should have given up a long time ago. To put it bluntly, in this world, people like us can't even protect ourselves. It would be good to live for a few more days with enough food and drink.”

"You have done enough to allow your brother to go to school for so many years without any worries. Other people's families can't do what you do even if they have real parents."

"If you don't believe me, look around us. Which family is willing to send their children to school in the fourth district to receive education? Which family's children are not young enough to come out to earn a living?"

"It's just you, foolish enough to spend your life earning money to support your brother's schooling. He raised his limbs and didn't care about the five grains. Tiantian Guang knew that he asked you for money to buy spiritual plants and spiritual cards. I haven't seen him for so many years. Learn some decent skills."

Arnold smiled wryly, but didn't answer the words.

Brother Zhao interrupted and said, "Brother Li, please don't say a few words. We've arrived, so cheer up."

Brother Li shrugged and said nothing.

Xiaoquan looked left and right, with a dazed look on his ears.

Although the old town that is already in front of us is not big, only a few hundred people swarmed in and scattered in all directions. It still couldn't stir up any splashes, nor could it make this dilapidated town, where most of the buildings had already been ruined, lively. stand up.

After everyone entered the town, they all went straight to the residential houses that were still in good condition.

As for the shops, shopping malls, libraries, hospitals, etc., where the buildings are still in good condition, and there may be more usable materials, those places will definitely not be missed by the Alliance Army.

It's useless for them to go now, so it's better to hurry up and go to a few more houses with intact houses to pick up the leaks, and then dig out the ruins that have collapsed.

In the past, Brother Li and his party of four would move separately nearby so that they could watch and help each other, and today is no exception.

Most of the remaining residential houses in this small town are small buildings with two or three floors.

The four of them entered a small building next to each other.

The available resources that need them to pick up and recycle can be said to be extremely broad or very limited.

It is said to be extremely wide because, as long as it is an object with usable value, it is as small as a good bowl spoon, a piece of wire and a nail, as large as a refrigerator, TV, and washing machine that can be turned on normally after being connected to a spiritual socket. Included in the scope of pick-up and recycling.

It is said to be very limited because it has been more than [-] years since the catastrophe day came.After more than [-] years of time erosion, there are not many objects that can still retain their value.

Especially for items such as electrical appliances, few of them can be started normally.

When encountering such objects, most people would dismantle them, and only take metal plates and engines, etc., and sell them at the price of old metal by the catty to the West Fifth District branch of the old recycling station specially set up by the alliance.

They often collect and pick up non-stop for a whole day, and their harvest can't fill two big sacks.

After handing in half, the remaining Union Coins exchanged can at most allow them to maintain their basic living needs and not lack food and clothing.

If you want to save money, rely on this, unless you are lucky.

The only good thing is that when they do this kind of work of picking up waste and leaks, they usually only go to the places that the Union Army has swept away. In the old days, it was much safer to collect available resources in rural towns than wandering in the wild.

Even if they are unlucky enough to encounter ghosts and monsters that the alliance army missed, in most cases, they can rely on their own weak strength to escape.

At least you won't accidentally stray into the haunted den, and you won't be able to escape even if you want to.

In addition, wild hunting and scavenging will occasionally organize some relatively strong people who are willing to risk their lives to make money, and go to a designated place in a wilderness haunt or den for wild hunting.

Wild hunting is extremely dangerous, almost every time there are more or less people involved, injured or even killed.

But correspondingly, high risk also comes with high income.

The travel expenses of hundreds or thousands each time is already equivalent to a huge sum of money for people who rely on scavenging to cover food and clothing.

The original owner, Yin Nuo, relied on his frequent participation in wild hunting operations and used his blood to earn money to support his stepbrother in school.

Most of the [-] deposits that Arnold spent at once came from this, and the remaining small part was saved by the original owner's daily frugality.

With the memory left by the original owner as the background, Anol picked up the wasteland, looking like it.

Although his purpose of going out of the city this time is not to experience the life of scavenging, but to get in touch with more plants and collect information in order to prepare for the long journey in the near future.

But whether it’s going to a residential building where the building is still in good condition to collect available resources, or going to the ruins where the building has collapsed, digging out objects that still have recycling value.

A Nuoer acted with a serious and familiar face, even Li Ge and others who were very familiar with the original owner Yin Nuo, could not find that there was a change in his heart, this Yin Nuo was no longer the other Yin Nuo.

A total of three to five hundred people, after working for a long time in this dilapidated town where most of the houses were in ruins, they all stopped at around four o'clock.

Then, carrying the harvest on their backs, they hurriedly evacuated in order to arrive at the drop-off place before dusk, so that they could get on the car that would take them back to the city in time.

When they arrived in the city by car, it was almost dusk.

Sell ​​all the harvest to the West Fifth District Old Recycling Station Branch, and then hand in half of the Union Coins.

They are a group of waste pickers who have been busy all day, but also worry about it all day, so they can really rest their minds and take a breather.

It was almost dark at this time.

Everyone didn't dare to stay outside too much, and only took a short rest before going home.

After returning to the residence in disgrace, the first thing Anol did when he entered the house was to wash off the dust in the bathroom.

However, just halfway through the bath, the energy in the spiritual water card was exhausted and there was no water.

Fortunately, he was already able to cast emergency magic, which saved him from making a psionic water card in his body of foam.

Putting on comfortable and clean home clothes, Anor sat at the table, took out all the blank talisman papers and blank crystal cards stored in the spiritual space, as well as spare pens and ink, and placed them on both sides of the table within easy reach land,

Then he spent a full six days preparing for the upcoming trip.

Three days were used to draw those blank talisman papers and blank crystal cards into all kinds of attack-type finished talisman cards of various grades.

The other three days are used to modify various long-range and close-combat weapons that may be used for walking outside.

During these six days, he stayed at home. When he was hungry, he ate the crude nutrition powder stored food prepared by the original owner. When he was thirsty, he condensed a water polo in the cup to drink.

When the spiritual energy in the body is exhausted, it absorbs the countless beast power spar and magic spar stored in the star ring, and then converts it into spiritual energy for use.

He only sleeps for four hours a day at most, and the rest of the time is used by him to draw spell cards.

It wasn't until the spare talisman pens and card pens were all useless, and the talisman ink and blank talisman cards were all used up, that he escaped from this crazy state of forgetting to eat and sleep, and fell on the bed to sleep soundly.

It is worth mentioning that when he used the space of the star ring, the scepter of the Elven King seized the opportunity and ran out.

After flying around him, it turned into a green Duka instrument, which was attached to the Duka instrument on his left wrist, and made a home.

Arnold saw that it was pleasing to the eye, so he didn't take it off by force.

-

At noon on the eighth day in this world, Arnold, who was sleeping in the dark, was woken abruptly by the knocking on the door.

When his consciousness was hazy, A Nuoer subconsciously wanted the people around him to see who was so ignorant to disturb people's lucid dreams.

However, when he pushed his hand to the side, it was in vain. Arnold woke up completely in an instant, and then realized that the person who was supposed to be sleeping next to him was still a hundred thousand miles away.

Opening his eyes and looking at the ceiling in a daze for a while, Anol finally collected his mood, got up slowly and got out of bed, and opened the door.

Outside the door, a handsome young man with the same black hair and black eyes as him, whose appearance was threefold similar to him, hurriedly withdrew his hand that was clapping towards the door, looked at his weak and decadent appearance with pale face and scruffy beard, and said worriedly: " Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? "

A Nuoer recognized at a glance that this person was Yin Luobai, the white-eyed wolf stepbrother of the original owner Yin Nuo.

Arnold looked at this man, his eyes condensed like frost: "No class at school today?"

Yin Luobai shook her head and said: "No class, no class for these two days. In another month, it will be the graduation assessment day stipulated by the school. This assessment is very important. It is related to whether our students of this year can be admitted to the inner city. Psychic academy, change destiny."

"So, the instructor of our department specially gave us two days off, let us hurry up and prepare in advance the high-level power card and contract spirit plant needed for the assessment."

"So that we can cultivate a tacit understanding with the contract Lingzhi as early as possible, and strive to maximize our combat effectiveness in the next month."

At the end of the sentence, Yin Luobai said with concern: "Brother, if you are not feeling well, let's go to the hospital to see it? Spending money is a trivial matter, and your body is the most important thing. If the money is not enough, I will not take it seriously. Participated in the assessment."

Arnold looked at his sincere face and didn't respond for a moment.

In the memory left by the original owner, the original owner also heard such words at the same time on the same day.

At that time, the original owner was both moved and guilty, and the response was to give him the silver card with the entrance fee and accommodation fee of the Psionic Academy, so that he could prepare the assessment supplies with peace of mind.

Then the original owner dragged his seriously injured body to the West Fifth Branch of the Wild Hunting and Scavengers Association, and renewed his life-saving contract for the next ten years.

And with this, he paid an advance payment of alliance currency to fill in the missing entrance fee and accommodation fee of the Psionic Academy.

But now, after a moment of silence, Arnold's response did not meet Yin Luobai's expectations.

Not only did he not give Ka a peace of mind to prepare the assessment supplies, but he also acted as if there was nothing left to do: "There is no need to go to the hospital. I was seriously injured a few days ago, and I have already spent all my savings."

It is not a lie for him to say that, it is a fact that the original owner was injured, and it is also a fact that he spent all his savings.
