The end of the world: I am linked to a mobile lottery store

Chapter 527 Sequelae

She walked over to him, feigning helplessness, and reached out her hand, "Get up and eat."

Luo Mu was relieved by Lu Li's words, which made him feel panicked because everyone around him was asleep. He raised his hand and firmly grasped her wrist.

Luo Mu used her strength to stand up, but he was still reluctant to let go. He helped her shake her arms and legs, but he still felt a little uncomfortable, as if he had been given a replacement.

"What's wrong with everyone?" Luo Mu asked, voicing his doubts.

“You guys…” Lu Li had to explain again. The process was bland and boring, but it didn’t matter. Luo Mu would imagine it as a blockbuster movie.

The two returned to the kitchen one after the other. Luo Mu smelled the aroma, and the emptiness in his stomach surged up in waves.

He immediately went to get his rice, found a seat, and began to wolf it down. He was very eager, having just come from a famine-stricken period, so the three of them, including Lu Li, were not surprised.

After all, Sheng Xian and Jiang Ning had just looked like that.

The two were still eating, showing no sign of stopping. Lu Li thought it wasn't just because they had been asleep for so long, but also because of some aftereffects.

The four of them continued eating, and inexplicably, more and more people gathered at the table, gradually waking up one by one.

Every time someone came in, she would ask, "What's going on? How did we get to the lottery shop?" Lu Li would then give Luo Mu a look.

Luo Mu was very skilled; he started talking while eating, and his description was so immersive and engaging that it made you feel like you were right there with him.

They even used both their hands and feet to perform, which is truly...dedicated.

After listening, everyone cast admiring, grateful, or respectful glances at Lu Li. Boss Lu is simply amazing!
He quietly did so much to save everyone from disaster.

Now he's like a big shot who keeps his achievements hidden, calmly sipping his porridge. When he gets stares from others, he just waves it off indifferently.

Gradually, the kitchen countertop became crowded with people.

Lu Li felt cramped, so she took out the dining table and chairs from the space and put them back in their original positions, and also put out the sofa.

Like herding ducks, they said, "Go, go, go eat outside."

The group reluctantly left, each carrying a dish in one hand and a bowl of rice in the other.

The meal was served like a continuous banquet; no one had a fixed seat, and everyone just carried their food and wandered around the tables.

Wang Yang was the last to wake up. He only felt that it was noisy, with a buzzing sound of voices in his ears, as if hundreds of people were talking at the same time.

He opened his eyes impatiently and saw the ceiling of the lottery shop's first floor. How did he end up here?

He remembered being at a bathhouse, where he was topping up customers' points. How did he end up here? Right, what time is it?

Wang Yang turned his head and looked at the wall clock.

Nine p.m.

He was startled. Could time really fly? How could it pass so quickly?

Wang Yang slowly got up and saw that the dining table was full of people coming and going, while he was lying on the sofa, covered with Lu Li's cute blanket.

Wang Yang felt a strange sense of unease about the scene.

He's always been a light sleeper, so how could he not have noticed so many people talking, especially since they were walking around?

He silently sensed the energy within his body; very good, still at the tenth level.

Wang Yang sat up, and the cute blanket on his body slipped off. He quickly grabbed it and prevented it from falling to the ground.

Otherwise, Luli will have to criticize herself again.

Over there, Lu Li noticed that Wang Yang had woken up in a gap in the crowd.

She saw Wang Yang stride over and ask the question, "What happened?" She breathed a sigh of relief. She had achieved the goal of having everyone ask what had happened.

As expected, Luo Mu seemed to have triggered a key word upon hearing this sentence, and began to give a practiced speech, accompanied by not-too-exaggerated, somewhat perfunctory gestures.

Lu Li thought he was tired of talking, after all, there were so many people, and Luo Mu was the main speaker.

I understand, so Lu Li occasionally chimes in with a few words, adding her own embellishments.

After listening to the whole story, Wang Yang muttered to himself, "So that's how it is, no wonder..."

Lu Li only heard the last three words, "What did you say? No wonder?"

“It’s alright. I’ve encountered this kind of mutated plant in the wild before. They’re not very harmful, but they can cause people to fall into a coma. The higher the level, the longer the person will be unconscious, and the faster the toxins are absorbed,” Wang Yang explained.

Neither Luo Mu nor Lu Li mentioned the following sentences.

“I heard there will be aftereffects,” Lu Li said.

"Yeah, my appetite will increase, that's the only side effect." Wang Yang touched his nose, feeling a little guilty, as he also felt hungry.

Especially when there's a group of people eating heartily in front of you, the scene and the aroma are simply irresistible.

Lu Li was speechless. She had been worried about what the aftereffects would be, but the system wouldn't tell her and just kept making her guess.

She wanted to sing: "Keep guessing, guessing, guessing, and I've done another divination."

As it turns out, Wang Yang is now telling her that the side effect is that her appetite will increase. She can only say that everything has a reason, no wonder these people can eat so much!

Jiang Ning and Sheng Xian, in particular, were the first to wake up.

We've been eating in the crowd ever since, but halfway through, Lu Li noticed there were a lot of people and it seemed like there wasn't enough food, so she ordered two more rounds.

But this group showed no signs of being full, leaving Lu Li speechless.

These people were already superhumans with big appetites, and now they have an even bigger reason to eat more.

Lu Li comforted herself, "Garlic Bird, as long as you're alright, let it eat whatever it wants. It's not like we can't afford to raise it."

And so, the group ate and drank until 11 p.m.

Lu Li yawned and couldn't help but urge, "Alright, alright, stop eating. Can't we eat again tomorrow? Aren't you guys really full?"

A dozen or so people looked at her, then shook their heads in unison. The scene was rather eerie, and they all said in unison, "Not full."

Lu Li took a step back, raised her hands, and made a gesture of surrender.

"Alright, alright, you guys eat, keep eating. If you're still hungry, go to hot pot restaurants, dim sum restaurants, cake shops, Sichuan restaurants and keep eating. It's free. I'll pay for today's meals." Lu Li waved her hand.

The shop owners cheered "Yay!" and put their arms around each other, calling out to their friends, "Let's go, let's go! Boss Lu has spoken!"

Shen Bing asked Lu Li, "Are you going?"

Then, seeing her yawn again, he naturally retracted his previous statement, "Get some rest."

Lu Li rolled her eyes at him, "You guys clean this up before you leave."

The "you guys" in that sentence obviously refers to Shen Bing, Luo Mu, and the other four. After Lu Li finished speaking, she turned around and went upstairs to sleep.

The other shop owners moved on to Sichuan restaurants and continued eating. They all felt that their stomachs were like bottomless pits, and no matter how much food they ate, they felt nothing.

Before going to bed, the base commander of the Erlang base called her to ask if the matter had been resolved.

Lu Li said, "As you said, they just need to wait and they will wake up, but now there are aftereffects..."
