Night Falls: I Kill Through the Wasteland with My Entries

Chapter 45 Small Scavenging Group

Su Ding entered the dream again.

In the dream, the deformed tree was still lingering, and its roots disappeared underneath.

Now, Su Ding finally has time to observe the tree carefully.

Before, he felt that the big tree on the parchment and the big tree on the metal sheet were very similar to the big tree in his dream.

But now after careful observation, Su Ding felt that there were many differences.

At least... whether it was the tree on the parchment or the tree on the metal sheet, none of them were as ugly as the tree in front of him...

The trunk of this tree looks like it has a big tumor, and it looks very ugly.

It's also very inconsistent.

When Su Dingsheng came up with this idea, the big tree in front of him suddenly moved.

The tumor on the torso disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What's going on?" Su Ding looked at the big tree, feeling very surprised.

Could it be that the big tree in the dream could sense his thoughts and change according to his thoughts?

And at this moment, I don’t know if it was Su Ding’s illusion.

He found that the progress bar in the sky was moving significantly faster.

"Could it be that the change in the tree's appearance can also change the speed of absorbing black crystals? What kind of logic is this?" Su Ding was even more puzzled.

Of course, he didn't know whether this was his illusion.

After all, in dreams, people's perception of time is always vague.

Su Ding looked at the progress bar.

Now it has reached 50%, a total of 17%.

He looked at the tree again, and kept giving instructions in his mind, but the tree did not change at all.

"What's going on?" Su Ding looked at the big tree with a frown, and couldn't figure it out for a moment.

"Maybe it has something to do with the parchment or metal piece." Su Ding took a deep breath.

He was not in a hurry and waited quietly for the progress bar to reach 100%.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 1 refining point." A message appeared in Su Ding's mind.

He opened his eyes immediately.

What meets the eye is still pitch black.

Su Ding saw that it was pitch black all around him and immediately realized that his feeling was not wrong.

The speed of absorbing black crystals has indeed increased.

This time, he absorbed about 60% in total.

At the previous speed, it would take at least 10 hours before dawn.

But now, it is still in the dark night.

Su Ding moved closer to the watch, covered it with his hands, and checked the time in backlight mode.

More than five hours had passed since he went to bed.

"In just over five hours, we've achieved 63% progress. The absorption speed has more than doubled!" Su Ding was pleasantly surprised.

He didn't expect that he would have such a gain!

"Brother Su...are you awake?" At this time, Monkey also noticed Su Ding's condition and couldn't help but come over.

"How is it?" Su Ding turned off the backlight of his watch and asked Monkey.

"After the noise, there has been no movement." The monkey said in a low voice.

"But..." Then he paused.

"But what?" Su Ding looked at the other party with some confusion.

Monkey hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Su, when you were sleeping just now, Sister Jing'an and I discussed it. We feel that dividing the spoils every time is a bit too troublesome.

My sister Jing'an and I don't want to bring too many things right now. So, we decided to just put everything together. Brother Su will be in charge of everything."

In fact, there are some things he is embarrassed to say.

Now following Su Ding, he feels that the things he comes into contact with are becoming more and more high-end, and many of them are things he will never be able to come into contact with in his entire life.

Like runes and so on.

To be honest, he felt a little nervous holding these things, and was afraid that he couldn't bear it. In this case, why not just leave the things with Su Ding, so that he would feel much more relaxed.

As long as Su Ding gave him a bowl of rice, it would be enough.

When Su Ding heard the monkey's words, his expression paused.

He probably understood what the monkey meant. It was too conspicuous for the other party and Li Jingan to hold these things.

This is just like him being targeted by his neighbors for holding a large amount of black crystal.

At the same time, he also understood the other party's deeper meaning.

If the other party places something with him, it means that he wants to form a deeper cooperative relationship with him.

Similar to a scavenger group.

"That's fine." Su Ding hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "How about this, the three of us form a small scavenging group. The things will be placed in the scavenging group. When we do something, we will directly record the contribution points. With the contribution points, we can exchange for supplies."

"No problem!" The monkey immediately became excited when he heard Su Ding say this.

Now, he is completely on board.

For him, this is definitely like winning the lottery.

Although, he also understood that following Su Ding would definitely lead to risks in the future.

But this is also the only chance he has to change his destiny now.

"I have no problem either." Li Jingan's calm voice came from the side.

"Then monkey, you will be responsible for recording the contribution points from now on." Su Ding said with a smile.

The monkey was stunned and said in disbelief: "Am I coming?"

"Well, come on. Li Jingan and I are not suitable for doing these things." Su Ding nodded.

He has too much to do now and doesn't want to spend any extra time on this.

As for Li Jingan, she had been suppressed by her parents and had little experience in social life, so it was not very suitable for her to deal with such matters.

In addition, there are also plans to boost the monkey's confidence.

Although the monkey did a lot of things during this mining trip.

For example, reminding him to cover the rune with black crystal, or carefully watering the rune line before making it.

However, during the communication between Su Ding and the other party, he could feel the other party's inferiority complex.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the monkey, what he did was insignificant and could not be compared with him and Li Jingan.

Su Ding thought of this and sighed in his heart.

In fact, it’s not that Monkey is not excellent, but what he and Li Jingan did has exceeded the scope of ordinary people.

How can ordinary people accurately find black crystals, runes, or even special minerals?

How could an ordinary person be like Li Jingan, who confronted others head-on and killed three strong men?

"Well... okay!" Monkey gritted his teeth and said firmly, "Brother Su, I will never let you down! If I ever do anything to let you down, you can just kill me and I won't say a word."

Su Ding smiled and said nothing more. He patted the other person's shoulder and said, "The house next to where I live is empty. Go talk to the camp management office and ask them to move over. That way, the three of us will have someone to look after us."

"Okay! Brother Su!" The monkey immediately agreed.

At this moment, Li Jingan handed a set of clothes to Su Ding.

When Su Ding touched the clothes, he was stunned.

Where did this dress come from?
He felt the texture of the clothes, paused, and had a guess in his mind.

"While you were sleeping, Monkey and I made three sets of clothes using the skin of rain corpses. We simply made these clothes by digging some holes with a dagger and tying them up with old clothes. I'll make them more carefully when we get back to the camp." Li Jing'an said.

"Thank you." Su Ding put on the clothes directly.

This dress is indeed simple and a bit inconvenient to wear, and I can't stretch my arms and legs.

But at this time, I can't ask for more.

Next, Su Ding discussed the details with the two of them, and then they took turns to keep watch.

After three or four hours, the sky brightened slightly and I could finally see some things.

This damn dark night is finally over!!!

Su Ding's eyes lit up, and his mission was also completed!
