Everyone's on a time-travel adventure! I'm raising city beasts in a post-apocalyptic world

"Lin Feng! It's me, Fu Kui. We went to the same school and even worked at the same company during our internships. Don't you remember?"

There was silence on the other end of the walkie-talkie for a few seconds, then no sound came out.

Fu Kui quickly continued, "It's that... my girlfriend needed to pay tuition, and I borrowed 500 yuan from you back then! Don't you remember?"

"Oh...I vaguely remember."

Fu Kui quickly seized the opportunity: "Lin Feng, no, Brother Feng! It's so great to have met you. I've always remembered the time I borrowed money from you when I was in trouble, and I really want to thank you in person. I don't have much to offer right now, just these two Ghost Crystals... but my wife and I are both Awakened, and we're willing to do anything for you. Um... could we come over to your place?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the walkie-talkie.

Lin Feng did recall this person, but they didn't have much interaction. They were indeed from the same school, but in different classes and the same internship unit. He didn't have much of an impression of this person, Kui. If it weren't for the mention of borrowing money, he really wouldn't remember him.

I did borrow money from him back then, and the reason I gave was that my girlfriend's family was in financial difficulty and I needed to borrow money to pay for her tuition. It seems that I borrowed money from more than one person. This guy is very quick-witted, but he is a bit irresponsible. He never hesitates to lend money. One day he says his girlfriend needs to pay for tuition, and the next day he says his elderly relatives are sick. After borrowing money, he immediately posts pictures of himself eating and drinking on social media. He only paid back the money before the end of his internship.

It seems someone made a fuss with the boss, demanding that he pay off the debt before he would receive his salary, or something like that. Lin Feng didn't care about that money at the time; he was busy having a great time with a pretty girl in the company.

I had long forgotten about this person.

"Alright, it's fate that we met at the same school. Come on over, you guys stay in the outer city and don't wander around. Zhao Gao will take care of you, but everyone will be treated equally."

After giving Zhao Gao some instructions, he thought to himself that Zhao Gao should be able to handle the matter.

It turned out she underestimated Fu Kui's shamelessness.

After thanking him repeatedly, Fu Kui quickly followed Wang Lie back to the convoy. The guards used a basket to hoist them onto the turtle's back, and they landed at the entrance of the outer city. Zhao Gao was already waiting there. He looked the two men up and down and said expressionlessly, "Come with me."

After Fu Kui and Sun Nana entered the city gate, their eyes were simply overwhelmed by the sights. The streets were clean and tidy, with neat three-story buildings on both sides, their roofs covered with solar panels and planted with various plants, including gray-faced grass, red-heart fruit trees, sweet potatoes, and potatoes. There were also guards coming and going, especially the female guards, each with a curved sword at their waist, a quiver on their back, and a longbow in their hand, looking heroic and valiant.

There were also street vendors, and every place they encountered amazed them.

"Holy crap, Nana, look! There's actually a small town on this turtle's back! That's incredible!" Fu Kui whispered.

Sun Nana's eyes darted around, but she was more restrained than Fu Kui.

Zhao Gao led them to an empty room: "Gentlemen, this is your room."

Fu Kui glanced inside. It was about 50 square meters, with a bed and a bathroom. Although it couldn't compare to the luxury on Earth, it was considered a very luxurious dwelling in the apocalypse.

"Um, do you have any nicer rooms? Lin Feng and I are old classmates. Don't worry, I know the rules. I'll charge whatever the price is, and I definitely won't make things difficult for you."

Zhao Gao glanced at them and said, "Yes, the rooms on the first floor are all ordinary rooms, costing one level 1 ghost crystal per day. The rooms on the second floor cost ten level 1 ghost crystals per day. The facilities are better, the rooms are larger, and there is running water and electricity. I'll take you upstairs to have a look."

The group went up to the second floor, and Fu Kui took one look at the room and immediately said, "This is the one we want."

Then he took out two level 0 ghost crystals from his pocket. Seeing Zhao Gao's constipated expression, he wasn't angry. He said with a smile, "This is the deposit. Please take it. Don't worry, I will definitely raise enough for the rent. We'll pay you back double later. We are both Awakened Ones, and we will never renege on our debts. We are good buddies with Brother Feng. We would never renege on anyone else's debt."

Zhao Gao's hand froze in mid-air. He looked at the two level 0 ghost crystals with disdain, then at Fu Kui's smiling face. He took the two ghost crystals and then spoke, his voice devoid of emotion.

"Since Lord Lin Feng has entrusted this matter to me, I'll trust you this once out of respect for him. You wouldn't want to know the consequences if you renege on your promise. Farewell..."

"Don't worry, don't worry, you're a true friend! I'll treat you to dinner another day!"

Zhao Gao turned and left, a slight smirk playing on his lips. He made his way to the inner city and only met Lin Feng after Xiao Rui informed him.

"Sir, this is what happened... your classmate..."

Zhao Gao recounted the whole story. After listening, Lin Feng sighed and said, "I don't know him well. Just follow the rules and don't worry about me."

"This old servant understands!"

Lin Feng: "..."

You're addicted to this, aren't you?

He waved his hand, signaling Zhao Gao to step back.

The convoy continued on its way. Fu Kui and Su Nana settled in, and their chatter never stopped: "This tortoise formation is huge! It's practically a small mountain! How did they manage that... Sun Nana, do you think we hit the jackpot...?"

Sun Nana: "Say less. You owe people favors and rent. You'd better find a way to make up for it as soon as possible."

"We'll definitely fix it," Fu Kui turned and sat down next to her, lowering his voice, "Once I figure out the situation here, I'll find an opportunity..."

Before he could finish speaking, Sun Nana glared at him.

The convoy continued forward, crossing valleys and barren plains. After a day and a night, the convoy finally arrived at its destination.

The ruins finally came into view. Broken bricks and tiles covered the wilderness, and gray-black withered vines and moss like human skin grew among the broken walls. The sky above the ruins was hazy, and even in the daytime, the sunlight could not penetrate the haze.

A faint smell of decay permeated the air.

The wandering shadows in the ruins appeared and disappeared, and the distorted human figures passed through the broken walls. The aura of the vengeful spirits could be sensed from afar, making everyone's hair stand on end.

"So many vengeful spirits, level 3 are everywhere, and level 2 are as common as dogs."

Guo Yi's face paled upon seeing this: "There are even more vengeful spirits in these ruins than when we went in last time!"

The convoy stopped outside the ruins. Wang Lie jumped off the vehicle and stood at the front of the convoy. Dong Yu, Lao Chen, Lin Daoshi and others got off the vehicle one by one. Including the five people who obtained the profession last time, there were about twenty people behind him, holding weapons and looking in the direction of the ruins, their palms were sweaty.

"With so many vengeful spirits, should we still go in?"
