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

After they went inside, they looked around at the environment. There was a cabinet on the wall corresponding to each bed, containing clean and tidy quilts and work clothes.

These items were made by Orihime in collaboration with tailors and other lifestyle professionals, using collected discarded fabrics and blankets. Although they are not exquisite, they are sturdy and durable.

"Is this really a place for me to stay?"

"This is amazing!"

They couldn't believe their eyes. Was this really the post-apocalyptic world they knew? They hadn't even had enough to eat during the day, and now they had a safe haven.

The city walls protected them, with crossbows and patrols on top. Each of them had a place to sleep and was given a warm quilt.

After Zhao Gao saw that they were familiar with his room, he continued, "Someone will come over later to take you to eat and get your work badges. Rest tonight, and start work promptly at 8 a.m. tomorrow."

He paused, then continued, "Let me remind you again, you are standing here because the city lord approved it. Work hard, follow the rules, and don't try to cheat or break the rules. The outer city walls are very high..."

He left as soon as he finished speaking; it was already an extra favor that he had the time to personally bring these people over.

Not long after, someone pushed open the door and walked in. He was a man in his early thirties, wearing a gray work uniform with a black metal tag hanging on his collar. He was holding a notebook and a pen in his hand.

Upon entering, he glanced around at everyone in the room and began speaking with practiced ease:

"I'm Chen Shi, the squad leader of this dormitory. From now on, you'll be under my command. Now, state your names, ages, and any special skills you have. I'm warning you first: it's best not to lie about your information, or the consequences will be severe!"

The room was quiet for a moment, then someone spoke, starting with the middle-aged man, "My name is Zhang Chengshan, I'm forty-two years old, and I used to work as a foreman on construction sites."

"My name is Li Shitou, I'm thirty years old, and I can repair motorcycles..."

Chen Shi looked up and added a line after the name, "This counts as a special skill, write it down..."

After quickly registering the information of everyone in the room, Chen Shi closed the notebook.

"Alright, you've filled out your identity information. Your employee badges will be ready tomorrow morning. Now come with me, I'll take you to the cafeteria."

The group looked at each other, bewildered. In this completely unfamiliar environment, they had no choice but to follow their squad leader, Chen Shi.

The group walked out of the dormitory building and along the passageway in the outer city for a while. People on the road were in a hurry. Some were carrying things and passing by, while others were carrying tools and installing streetlights on both sides of the road.

Guards clad in black iron armor and carrying long swords marched past in orderly steps, each step striking the ground with a sound like a heart pounding.

They only dared to glance up before quickly looking down again. Although everyone who passed by was very busy, their eyes were full of hope, completely devoid of the unease and confusion one might expect in the face of the apocalypse.

The canteen was not far away, its doors wide open, and the aroma of food wafted out. Everyone's stomachs rumbled at the smell, and an older woman wearing an apron stood behind the window.

Chen Shi tore off the black plaque from his chest and placed it on the table, then handed over a piece of paper.

"They're all new..."

The woman took the paper, placed the metal plate on a device that made a "beep" sound, and then put the paper away.

Without saying much, he picked up a metal plate from the side and put a fist-sized potato, about a pound of sweet potato, and a bowl of soup made from the bones of mutated beasts, with a few vegetable leaves floating on top.

Chen Shi turned to the side and called out to those still standing, "Line up and come one by one to get your meals. The first week is free."

He raised his hand and pointed to the notice posted in front of the canteen: "After the Ghost Crystals are distributed, there will be a menu and prices on it. Everything will be there. If you want extra food, just pay for it yourself. In our Xuanfeng City, as long as you are willing to work, you won't starve to death."

He paused, then continued, "And as long as you're willing to work hard and do well, you'll have the opportunity to rise above others. The conditions are simple: here, everything is determined by the Ghost Crystal. With Ghost Crystals, you can eat well, move to better houses, and more..."

He whispered, "And there's the Drunken Garden (the Tower of Sin and Vengeance), where there are Japanese and Asian girls, hehe..."

He spoke with a strange laugh that everyone understood. The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, unsure how to respond. They were barely getting enough to eat, and here they were…

The middle-aged man, Zhang Chengshan, sat down at the long stone table next to him, carrying his own plate. He didn't start eating immediately. Looking at the steaming potatoes on his plate, he felt a sense of unreality.

They not only provide accommodation, but also food!

A young man sat down next to him, eagerly broke open a potato, took a bite, chewed it twice, and swallowed it.

"Brother Zhang, eat up! This place is great, so much food, and it's really free!"

Chen Shi also got a meal and sat down next to them. In addition to a bowl of soup, his plate contained a plate of stir-fried sweet potato leaves, a few gray steamed buns, and a plate of stewed potatoes with mutated beast meat. The aroma was irresistible, and the people around him couldn't help but swallow.

"We won't collect any for the first week. You'll have to earn the money yourselves through work. Once you've earned enough Ghost Crystals, you can apply to awaken your profession and become someone of high status."

"Becoming a professional has many benefits, not just a change in status, but also... I heard that after breaking through level 4, one can live for 800 years..."

"800 years, really?"

Upon hearing Chen Shi's words, the people around him widened their eyes and began asking him questions about professionals.

Chen Shi also told the newcomers what he knew. They would find out sooner or later anyway, so he might as well do them a favor now. Nobody knows what kind of job they might get later. It's just a matter of a few words. It's good to build a good relationship now. You never know when you might need it.

Lin Feng saw Zhuoma through his golden eyes. She was leading the guard team in a hunt with the gold-eating ants. The mutated beasts were surrounded by the gold-eating ants, and the guard team members were charging back and forth in the swarm of mutated beasts.

Golden Eyes hovered high in the sky, occasionally sending down a wind blade that sliced ​​through a level 4 mutated beast trying to break through the encirclement.

Lin Feng's side also received occasional notifications that evolution points had increased.

Seeing that there was no danger on Zhuoma's side and that most of the time was spent searching for mutated beasts, Lin Feng withdrew his gaze, sent Golden Eyes flying into the sky, and turned his attention to Xia Du's side.

His hunt was nearing its end. The Gale Wolves drove a large group of mutated beasts into the encirclement. The Unicorn Rock Lizard and the Armored Rhinoceros charged head-on into the mutated beast herd and fought fiercely. One mutated beast after another was knocked over and thrown about. Some even trembled and waited for death on the spot under the suppression of their level. The Gale Wolves surrounded them and slowly tightened the encirclement.

The battle ended quickly; the enemy's hunting efficiency was extremely high. The mutated beasts that they used to have to work hard to avoid were now the prey.
