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

Chapter 595 Pinecone Base
She now thinks that people who have survived the apocalypse are really amazing.

Ordinary people are even more powerful, while those with superpowers at least have their own abilities.

If it were her, she probably would have become a zombie as soon as the apocalypse broke out. Becoming a zombie doesn't seem so bad, at least it wouldn't be so tiring.

Lu Li lost her appetite, but the others regained their appetites after the cockroaches completely disappeared.

As expected of someone who has survived the apocalypse, they are almost unaffected.

Lu Li admired them, sprawled on the sofa, and watched them eat with great relish.

Before arriving at the pine cone base, they finished their hot pot meal and voluntarily cleared away their bowls and chopsticks.

Soon, the dining table was restored to its original state.

As Lu Li approached the pine cone base, she learned the origin of the base's name.

Outside the base, there are tall pine trees, each one taller than or at the same level as the three-story RV.

Standing inside the RV, she could clearly see the towering pine trees within the base.

Why not call it a pine tree base?
Luo Mu said, "These are mutated pine trees."

Luli asked, "Will it attack humans?"

Shen Bing continued, "The amazing thing is that these mutated pine trees don't attack humans, and the fruits they bear are edible."

"Wow, the first person to discover that mutated pine cones are edible was a genius," Wang Yang said sarcastically.

"I guess they were starving at the time, so they were desperate and would eat anything they could find," Su Xu said.

This kind of thing happens often inside the base; when you're starving, you can't think about anything else.

What's in front of me? Let's eat it first. Hey, it's not dead. This thing is edible!
That would create a new species and provide a new food source for the general population.

Because the mutated cockroaches delayed us for a long time, it was already quite dark when we arrived at the Pinecone Base.

Luli told everyone to go home, and that they would officially open for business tomorrow.

……

My first day at the Pinecone Base.

The residents had received the information well in advance, and as soon as the base gates opened, they rushed out.

The sight of these densely packed, charging cockroaches inexplicably reminded Lu Li of the mutated cockroach swarm she encountered yesterday.

She shook her head. How were these two things connected?

These are clearly adorable humans who came to make a purchase, while those yesterday were despicable cockroaches that wanted to eat her.

Thinking about it this way makes me feel much better.

In the morning, a first prize was awarded, and Lu Li was still thinking about it before getting out of the RV.

Weapon shop, weapon shop, weapon shop.

Reciting it three times is easier to do and shows more sincerity.

However, it is not a weapons shop.

It turned out to be a grilled fish restaurant. Great, great, it's food again, so Lu Li was quite satisfied.

It's been a long time since I've had grilled fish.

I wonder if it's because Luli complained about the shop's design last time.

The grilled fish restaurant this time has a very ordinary design, with only one floor.

But the interior is very large, like a street food stall, full of lively atmosphere.

The table is a round wooden table, and the chairs are red-backed plastic chairs; they look very comfortable to sit on.

Seeing this setup makes me want to call up a few friends, drink beer, and chat on a summer night.

Very cool.

Hearing that the owner wanted to open immediately, Luli decided to bring everyone here for lunch.

The shop owner's name is Zhang Xiaobei. He is a young man with a buzz cut and doesn't look very old.

With the opening time approaching noon, many customers were debating which restaurant to eat at.

After all, stomach capacity is limited, but there are many shops to choose from.

Now I see a new shop, which was built by the residents of our base.

Thinking it was a must-do, they flocked into the grilled fish restaurant. They quickly filled most of the seats, and Lu Li even got a large round table.

He was sitting in a comfortable red-backed plastic chair, using his personal computer to call out to Shen Bing and the others.

They arrived relatively quickly this time and seemed indifferent to having won the first prize again.

I have become accustomed to it.

Since there were nine people, Luli ordered four different flavored grilled fish.

Grilled fish with fresh green peppers and a numbing, spicy and sour golden soup, spicy tofu and grilled fish, and soy sauce flavored grilled fish.

Both are mildly spicy.

We also ordered a lot of side dishes: enoki mushrooms, potato slices, tofu pudding, wide rice noodles, bamboo shoots, fresh tofu skin, and white fungus...

Lu Li thinks the best part isn't the fish itself, but the tofu pudding in the grilled fish—it's amazing!

It's soft and tender, melts in your mouth, and soaks up all the broth.

As expected, the tofu pudding received rave reviews, and we ordered many more servings.

The fish was also delicious, with few small bones and no fishy smell; all four flavors were tasty.

Oh dear, Lu Li thought again, it would be nice to have more different kinds of food shops.

This way, everyone can enjoy a variety of different delicacies.

Unlike before, I no longer have to eat those awful black jelly treats every day, which were practically inedible.

Life now is worlds apart from what it used to be.

Even if Lu Li hasn't been to the base, residents can still order takeout through food delivery platforms.

You can order anything from food and household items to fruits, hardware stores, and appliance stores.

The only downside is that you can't enjoy the same experience at a bathhouse, and ordering takeout never tastes as good as having it freshly made in a restaurant.

But that's okay, she'll visit every base!

One day, her footprints will be found outside all the bases, and in all the shops she left behind.

After finishing their grilled fish and paying, everyone went back to their respective shops to continue their work.

Back in the RV, she began her daily routine, lounging on the sofa.

I was using my computer while lying down.

I saw a post that was quite popular.

[A generator and a water supply unit have been unearthed at the Lion's Head base!]

The comments below were full of envy; why didn't their own base get such a good thing?

I really wish I could scrape together a generator too.

So, tell me, does this generator/water supply unit ultimately belong to the base or to an individual?

[You clearly don't understand the rules of a lottery shop. The prize is only for the owner to use; you can't steal it, and it's useless even if the owner dies.]

Why do people say that death is useless? If you die, the reward becomes unclaimed property.

[The master is dead, so the reward is gone.]

【how do you know? 】

[There are precedents for this. Someone was jealous of the rewards someone else had gotten from the base, so they killed that person, and the rewards vanished.]

[Wow, that's incredible! Will it just end up back in the lottery jackpot?]

When Lu Li saw this comment, she exclaimed, "You're absolutely right, bro!"
[Hey, I'm here to vouch for you! I've rented both the generator and water supply to the base, so don't worry about it!]

Immediately, someone asked her how she felt about using the generator and water supply machine.

Lu Li left the [Human Social Area], remembering that someone's reward was replication.

I wonder if it's possible to copy the generator and water supply unit?

"Yes, everything is fine except for superpowers and the first-prize shop, which cannot be copied," the system said.

"Hmm, it's a good thing, but right now I don't have a copy of this reward, nor do I have a generator or a water supply machine, nothing at all." Lu Li smiled wryly.

Good prizes don't come easily, you need to be patient, host.
