The whole nation: You're put to survive on a desolate planet, you'll be running an alien b

Li Haotian put down his phone, moved his left wrist, and heard a slight cracking sound from his knuckles.

He glanced at the notification of the more than three million yuan in funds arriving and then crossed it off.

Money is important, but for him right now, the impact of those numbers is far less real than the burning pain in his legs.

He held onto the wall and tried to take a step.

His knees bent uncontrollably, and his body lurched forward. He immediately reached out his left hand to brace himself against the opposite wall, barely managing to regain his balance.

She is too weak.

Although the power feedback in the game allowed him to stand up again, his body, which had been hollowed out for two years, was like a rusty machine, with every part groaning in protest.

He needs nutrition, lots of nutrition.

Li Haotian took a deep breath and took another step, this time much slower.

One step, two steps, he walked the short distance of just a few meters from the room to the door, his brows drenched in sweat, the back of his old T-shirt soaked through and clinging tightly to his bony spine.

He opened the door, preparing to go out and throw away the trash piled up at the entrance.

As soon as the door opened, a strong smell of cheap perfume mixed with the smell of cooking oil hit me.

A large, obese figure blocked the entrance; it was the landlord of the building, a middle-aged woman who appeared to weigh over 180 pounds.

"Oh, isn't this our young master?"

The landlady stood with her hands on her hips, her waist so thick it almost filled the entire hallway. Her small eyes sized Li Haotian up and down, her gaze filled with meanness and disdain.

"What's wrong? Did the sun rise in the west today? You lame man, you can walk now?"

She saw Li Haotian standing there, but there was no surprise on her face. Instead, she seemed to have caught something red-handed, and her voice rose eight octaves.

"I knew it! How could a young man in his early twenties be paralyzed? He was faking it all along! What, faking disability to collect welfare money, and then he doesn't have to pretend anymore once he gets the money?"

Li Haotian looked at her expressionlessly and didn't say anything.

He simply placed the trash bag he was carrying by the door.

Seeing that he remained silent, the landlord assumed he was guilty and became even more arrogant.

She stretched out her large, fan-like hand, intending to push it towards Li Haotian's chest.

"Let me tell you, Li Haotian, don't give me that crap! This month's rent, plus last month's utilities, totaling 1,580 yuan, you have to pay it all today! If you don't, pack your bags and get out right now! I don't rent this place to scammers!"

Her fingers were about to touch Li Haotian's T-shirt.

Li Haotian slowly raised his eyelids.

His eyes were still those lifeless eyes, but something inside them was different.

It was a cold, emotionless scrutiny, like looking at a lifeless stone.

The landlord's hand, which he was pushing towards, froze in mid-air.

She felt as if she were being watched by some ferocious beast, a chill running from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head.

The young man in front of her was as thin as a bamboo pole, but his eyes were even more frightening than the pig butcher she had seen at the slaughterhouse in the middle of the night.

"What...what do you want to do?" The landlord subconsciously took a half step back, his voice weakening.

Li Haotian ignored her and slowly took out his old smartphone from his pocket.

There are also several cracks on the screen.

In front of the landlord, he swiped his finger across the screen a few times and opened a food delivery app.

The landlord was stunned.

What are you doing?

If you can't afford the rent, why would you order takeout?

Just as she was about to make another sarcastic remark, she saw Li Haotian click into a Japanese restaurant that looked extremely expensive.

He scrolled through the menu as casually as if he were strolling through his own vegetable garden.

[Premium Bluefin Tuna Belly Sashimi, 888 RMB/serving.]

Order one.

[A5 Wagyu Beef Sukiyaki Set Meal, 998 RMB/two people.]

Order another one.

[Hokkaido sea urchin, 298 yuan/plate.]

I'll have some of this too.

Li Haotian's fingers flew across the screen without the slightest hesitation.

The landlord's eyes widened, and his mouth slowly opened wide enough to fit an egg.

She watched the total price of the order soar from three digits to a glaring number.

Total: 2188 yuan.

Then, in front of her, Li Haotian slowly and methodically entered his payment password.

Payment successful.

He showed the landlord the address bar, which clearly stated the address of the place.

"Are you crazy?!" The landlord finally reacted, her scream almost lifting the roof off the building. "You have over two thousand yuan to order takeout, but not enough to pay over a thousand yuan in rent? Li Haotian, are you kidding me?!"

Li Haotian put away his phone, didn't even glance at her, and turned to go back inside.

"Stop right there!" The landlord was so angry that his fat jiggled, and he reached out to grab his arm.

Li Haotian sidestepped and easily dodged.

He turned around, looked at the woman throwing a tantrum, and suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

The scope of vision is still too small.

Arguing with this kind of person only lowers your own standards.

Too lazy to waste any more words, he went straight back into the house and slammed the door shut, almost bumping into the landlord's nose.

"You've gone too far! Li Haotian, you little bastard! Get out here! If you don't pay rent today, I'll throw all your stuff out!"

The landlord was frantically banging on the iron gate outside, making a deafening noise.

Inside the room, Li Haotian ignored him.

He walked to the window, picked up his phone, and dialed Su Wan's number.

The call was answered almost instantly.

"Feed? Haotian? You...you're offline? Are you alright?!" Su Wan's anxious voice came through.

"It's nothing, what could possibly happen?"

Li Haotian deliberately turned up the volume to make sure that the people outside the door could hear him clearly.

He strolled slowly to the door and leaned against the cold door panel.

"Oh, right, I have something to tell you. I just exchanged some survival points for some money, not much, only about three million."

The knocking on the door stopped abruptly.

Li Haotian could clearly feel that the obese body outside the door froze, even stopping its breathing for a moment.

Su Wan on the other end of the phone was also stunned: "Three...three million?"

"Yeah, just playing around, it's nothing," Li Haotian said in an extremely calm tone, as if he were just saying that the weather was nice today.

"I figured this place was pretty annoying to live in, with lots of flies and mosquitoes, and the neighbors were noisy too."

He paused, then raised his voice a few decibels.

"Could you find out for me how much this building, yes, the dilapidated building I live in right now, costs? If the price is right, I'm thinking of buying it."

"Buy...buy it?" Su Wan was completely lost in his train of thought.

"Yeah," Li Haotian's voice held a hint of amusement, "buy it, and then... tear it down. It's an eyesore."

"It's been demolished?"

"Well, just take it apart for fun, otherwise what's the point of keeping it? Do you really expect to get rich from the rent? The layout is terrible, Auntie."

He spoke the last three words softly and slowly.

Outside the door, all was deathly silent.

Li Haotian could even picture the landlord's expression at that moment, from anger to shock, then to bewilderment, and finally to blankness.

He smiled slightly and hung up the phone.

Sometimes, even fists are too dirty to deal with this kind of person.

Using what she values ​​most to crush her pitiful self-esteem will be much more effective.

After a few seconds of silence, there were rustling footsteps outside the door, followed by a deliberately low, ingratiating knock.

"Knock knock".

"Um... Xiao Tian..." the landlady's voice came, her tone obsequious as if she were a completely different person, "Auntie was... I was a little loud just now, please don't take it to heart..."
