Survival in the neighborhood: Give me a piece of bread every day
56: Six-legged monster
"Boss, shall we set off now?"
Li Jia and the others came forward to greet them.
They received Chen An's message about half an hour ago.
Anyone willing to venture outside the community will be rewarded with a bottle of mineral water and a loaf of bread, and this is just the minimum.
Therefore, no one refused.
First, he refused Chen An, who was wealthy and powerful, as it might offend him.
Secondly, everyone is already short of resources and gold coins, and they want to go out to find supplies and fight monsters to get gold coins.
It's actually safer to leave the community together now.
of course.
Another reason why everyone was so united was that they had just fought together, which laid the foundation for cooperation, and they knew that cooperation was the safest option.
"Okay, let's go!"
Chen An nodded.
With nearly a hundred underlings protecting him, even if he encountered any danger, he could safely escape.
All he needed to give was a mere hundred servings of water and bread.
I don't feel bad at all.
If you have resources, you should make the most of them!
Otherwise, if you get ambushed and killed, no matter how many resources you have in your inventory, it won't help.
Chen An always kept in mind one principle: Only by living can one be entitled to enjoy life!
You should know that the most painful thing in the world is dying before you've spent all your money.
Moreover, with so many henchmen protecting them, the chances of hunting monsters are greatly increased.
You can easily recoup your losses by killing a few monsters.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Chen An keeps taking out resources.
But he carefully calculated every expense in his mind, ensuring that he wouldn't lose money.
"Boss, which direction should we go?"
As Li Jia walked out of the community gate, he turned back and asked.
The world was pitch black, and there was no way to tell where to find more.
"Go straight ahead to the abandoned city."
Chen An, who was in the middle of the crowd, said.
He had already bought intelligence about the neighborhood.
It is said that there is an abandoned city about one kilometer away.
There are relatively many six-legged monsters in abandoned cities.
While there are resource points in other directions, I've heard that there are few six-legged monsters.
Chen An was mainly after the six-legged monster, which was non-aggressive and could drop treasure chests.
Secondly, we need to have Lin Luxi kill more monsters to increase the drop rate of her talent.
The group walked cautiously along the way.
Occasionally, they would encounter a few wandering faceless monsters, which Lin Luxi and Li Jia would then kill.
After the faceless monster dies, its corpse does not disappear like the laughing monster; instead, some rewards will drop next to it.
There were gold coins, silver coins, and bread, among other things.
Although Chen An had collected a lot of information about the Faceless Monster in the chat room, this was the first time he had seen it in person.
The faceless monster is very similar in size to a human, but its skin is pale, its limbs are longer than those of a normal adult, and it is completely bald, without a single hair.
It has no facial features and no hair.
But it seems to have eyes; as soon as it is exposed to light, it will react immediately and rush over like a madman, somewhat similar to the zombies in movies.
In the darkness, this crazed monster is truly terrifying.
Many residents who saw it for the first time were quite frightened.
"The area ahead is the abandoned city area."
Li Jia shone his flashlight forward.
Abandoned buildings appeared one after another, standing out in the darkness of the night.
Chen An looked down at the asphalt road beneath his feet.
This road surface is exactly the same as the one on Earth.
The abandoned vehicles parked on the road also looked like cars from my previous life.
Even the appearance of these abandoned and desolate buildings is very similar to the buildings in my previous life.
"I heard that the closer we get to the city center, the more faceless monsters there are, so let's search for supplies nearby."
Chen An said.
"Okay, boss, let's go check out that building up ahead first. Maybe we'll find something."
Li Jia pointed to the nearest abandoned office building and said.
The office building looked to be about forty or fifty stories high when the lights shone on it.
Many of the windows on the facade are broken.
There were also many dents on the wall, as if they had been left by something hitting it.
But what bothered Chen An the most was that some windows had residual dark red marks.
It looked like dried blood.
"Even the building is corroded like this, why hasn't the bloodstain oxidized? Is it because there's no sunlight?"
Chen An pondered this thoughtfully.
What left the bloodstains?
people?
Or some kind of monster?
As they pondered this, the group went downstairs.
"Everyone be careful, the space inside the building is cramped, please do not shoot arrows randomly, so as not to injure your own people."
Li Jia, who was walking at the front and wearing a golden shield, spoke up.
A dozen or so residents in the front row held crossbows and watched the building entrance warily.
Chen An took the flashlight from Bai Mengjie and shone it into the building.
Examine carefully from left to right.
Suddenly, he saw a shadow.
It was a strange shadow with six legs.
But as soon as the light shone on it, it darted into the darkness at lightning speed.
"Holy crap! Boss, there's a monster in the building!"
One of the residents also saw the eerie shadow and immediately screamed in terror.
"I saw it too! It looked like a six-legged monster!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it has six legs, and they're the legs of a person who isn't wearing shoes!"
"What? A monster with human legs? Really?"
Several residents who witnessed the incident also started shouting.
Immediately, the crowd became somewhat agitated.
A monster with six human legs—that sounds terrifying.
Chen An's heart stirred.
"That monster we just saw should be the six-legged monster mentioned in the intelligence report."
The name "six-legged monster" must have been chosen by the person who sold the information.
That's quite fitting.
And his habits are just as he described.
They will not attack people unless provoked, and may even run away when they see people.
He just shone a light on it, and it scared the six-legged monster so much that it ran into the building.
Chen An looked at the chattering and somewhat panicked crowd and raised his voice, shouting, "Quiet down!"
As soon as he spoke, the crowd quieted down and all looked at him.
Li Jia and his burly male neighbor also looked over.
They all hesitated, not wanting to enter the building.
After all, that monster was too creepy.
They would rather kill the faceless monster than face the six-legged monster.
Chen An looked around and said, "I bought some information about monsters before, including information about this six-legged monster."
Everyone immediately perked up their ears.
"Although this six-legged monster looks creepy, it is very timid and almost non-aggressive. It will run away when it sees people, just like just now. I only glanced at it and it ran away in fright."
When Chen An finished speaking, the residents were all taken aback.
What?
The monster is cowardly?
real or fake?
Most residents expressed doubt.
But the residents who had just seen the six-legged monster thought back and realized it really was true.
Unlike the faceless monster, that monster didn't rush at people as soon as it saw them.
Instead, they disappeared into the darkness.
Does this mean that this monster really doesn't attack people?
"Boss, this six-legged monster is so timid, does that mean we can kill it and get resources? It seems less risky than killing the faceless monster."
Li Jia spoke up at the opportune moment.
He knows how to respond.
Chen An looked at Li Jia and nodded, saying, "That's right. Killing the six-legged monster is easier than killing the faceless monster because it's just fast and almost harmless. Plus, killing the six-legged monster will drop a treasure chest."
"The treasure chests contain a wider variety of resources than you can get from killing other monsters!"
