Survival in the neighborhood: Give me a piece of bread every day

"Perhaps upgrading the skill will reduce stamina consumption? Or perhaps increase attack range..."

Chen An was really looking forward to the effects of this skill upgrade.

If the ice-controlling range could be increased, it would definitely be more powerful than the repeating crossbow.

Because he controls the ice with his mind, his accuracy is extremely high, making it very difficult for enemies to dodge.

Moreover, with this skill, he also gained the ability to attack and protect himself.

It's time to go out and kill monsters and search for supplies.

Materials like door upgrade blueprints and runes can only be obtained by killing monsters outside the community.

And this way, we don't have to share the lion's share of the profits with others.

Overall, this deal with Zhao Jiahao was a huge win!

"Knock knock knock!"

A knock came at the door.

This time, Lin Luxi and Wang Ziyan are back, along with Bai Mengjie.

Lin Luxi had a bleeding wound on her arm.

Bai Mengjie also had a wound in the same spot.

"These are the bandages I just bought. Please bandage this up first."

Jiang Lai took out bandages from her backpack and handed them over.

"Thanks."

Bai Mengjie said gratefully, took the bandage, and bandaged herself.

Because the injury wasn't serious, it was treated quickly.

After questioning Wang Ziyan, Chen An also learned the reason for Lin Luxi's injury.

He was ambushed while trying to grab the gift pack.

Bai Mengjie had the same wound because she used her talent to help Lin Luxi share the damage.

"Teacher Bai, would it be convenient for me to see your talent?"

Chen An became curious.

"OK."

Bai Mengjie didn't even hesitate before showing the panel.

[Group Sharing (lv1): You can select a target as a designated target, and then share the damage or buffs received by that target with other targets within 30 meters. The more targets you select for sharing, the smaller the proportion of damage and buffs received by the designated target. If there is only one shared target, the sharing effect is 50%.]

"Teacher Bai, you have a really strong talent."

Chen An asked in surprise.

He initially thought Bai Mengjie's talent was only to share the damage.

I didn't expect that even the buff effects could be shared.

This support effect is absolutely amazing!

Although there is a distance limit of 30 meters.

But it was pitch black outside, and it was difficult to see anything around you even if you were more than three or five meters away.

Thirty meters can be closed with ease.

Moreover, the most invincible thing about this talent is that as long as it is bound to an enemy, the enemy will suffer 50% of the damage back when he slaps Bai Mengjie.

Even if he kills Bai Mengjie, he will have to be buried with her.

What's even more disgusting is that the enemy will be hampered, while Bai Mengjie will be completely unaffected and will be able to fight back normally!

As for distance restrictions...

Without seeing the character panel, it's impossible for an average person to immediately know that a talent has a range limitation.

So, this talent is indeed strong!

"I was only able to kill Smiling Nightmare the past two days because of my talent..."

Bai Mengjie nodded gently.

She also trusted her students Chen An and Lin Luxi, which is why she was willing to let them assess her talent.

"Teacher Bai, would you like to join my room? Your talent for support is very strong, while our room has a strong combat force. If we work together, the survival pressure will be much less."

Chen An started with zero frames and directly extended an invitation.

This shared talent is incredibly useful.

We must take it!

In addition, Ms. Bai was gentle and had helped him before, so Chen An always had a slight adolescent fantasy about Bai Mengjie.

It existed before I traveled through time.

However, due to the teacher-student relationship and his family's circumstances, Chen An knew that he was not good enough for Teacher Bai.

So even when she speaks, she seems a little self-conscious.

But after time travel.

All human beings start from the same point.

No matter how rich you were before, everyone here starts with a room, and resources depend entirely on hard work.

Therefore, his inferiority complex also disappeared.

Bai Mengjie paused for a moment, then hesitated and said, "This... let me think about it, okay?"

"certainly."

Chen An nodded.

Then, he took out a few gold coins from his backpack and handed them over, saying, "Teacher Bai, these five gold coins are your reward for helping me grab the airdrop gift pack today, and also your previous debts. We're even now."

"Huh? Isn't this too much?"

Bai Mengjie did not accept the gold coins immediately.

Five gold coins, plus the three gold coins he had on credit, and the two gold coins and six silver coins he had previously owed, totaled more than ten gold coins.

"Compared to the effort you put in, Teacher Bai, it's not much."

Chen An smiled faintly.

Bai Mengjie pursed her lips.

In the end, he accepted the gold coins.

"Thank you, Chen An..."

She could sense that Chen An's attitude towards her had changed.

It's not the same kind of respect students have for teachers as it used to be.

I can't quite describe the feeling.

Because Bai Mengjie spends most of her time studying and improving her academic qualifications, she has very little understanding of interpersonal relationships.

In fact, she's already thirty years old and has never been in a relationship.

Her family had arranged several blind dates for her, but she only met the men once, had a meal together, and then nothing came of it.

She has very little social experience.

I returned to my room.

Bai Mengjie looked at the damaged door and hesitated whether to repair it.

The reason she hesitated was because she was considering whether or not to join Chen An's room.

Logically speaking, Chen An's room was of a very high standard and contained a lot of supplies.

Joining his room will definitely make things much easier.

However, his room was very small.

Moreover, Chen An is a boy...

Will it be inconvenient to join?

Could something unspeakable happen?

After all, Lin Luxi and Wang Ziyan both seem to have fallen into depravity.

Bai Mengjie was conflicted.

On the other side...

Chen An had just kicked Lin Luxi's butt, and seeing her flushed face, he lectured her: "What did I tell you before we went downstairs? Your own safety is the most important thing, prioritize your own safety, and yet you risked your life to steal a worthless gift bag?"

"I……"

Lin Luxi wanted to explain, but the words wouldn't come out.

She just wanted to do more.

That way, you won't get kicked out.

That way, I can survive.

"Don't do that again next time, or I'll get really angry."

Chen An said seriously.

Losing a resident will definitely lower the comfort level.

Moreover, in the long run, the value of Lin Luxi's talent is definitely more worthwhile than one or two gift packs.

That's why he repeatedly told her not to take any risks.

After all, as long as you're alive, you'll have resources sooner or later.

"I...I understand..." Lin Luxi said softly.

Chen An didn't make things difficult for her. Instead, he said to Wang Ziyan, who was drinking water, "Don't throw away the empty water bottle. Fill it up in the toilet later and then sell it to Jiang Lai."

Toilet water can be sold.

Although it's not as valuable as bottled water, Jiang Lai's calculations still show that there's a profit to be made.

It's just a bit troublesome to fill it with water.

"Uh-huh."

Wang Ziyan responded.

Then, without any hesitation, he walked to the toilet, squatted down, and started urinating.

Chen An looked at her, slightly satisfied.

Since the reprimand, the woman has become much more sensible.

The atmosphere in the room is much better now.

There were no arguments, no internal strife.

When there's work to be done, everyone divides the tasks.

This is the feeling of everything flourishing and bursting with vitality!

Sitting on the bed, Chen An browsed the chat room for more than ten minutes. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he looked up at Wang Ziyan and Lin Luxi and said, "Once you've recovered your strength, let's go outside the community."

"Um?"

Jiang Lai's gaze immediately fell on Chen An.
