In a blink of an eye, it has been three days since Si Nian came to the garbage star.

I can't say whether he has adapted to life here, after all, it is difficult to see his identity as an outsider in terms of dress, but it is really difficult to change it for a while to say something deeper.

Of course, the cottage will not be used by Louis alone, Hank and Joe also live here, in addition to this, there is a skinny boy named Lu Sheng and a middle-aged uncle named Wuhua.

Lu Sheng is not much older than Louis, he is a native of the garbage, his parents died when he was very young, he struggled to survive on the garbage alone, but accidentally encountered the Ground Walking Beast, almost died, fortunately met Louis and them, this was the only way to pick up a small life, and since then, Lu Sheng has been following them.

Like Hank, Louis was assigned to him as soon as he was born, taking on the role of care and protection, and then for some reason, Louis was exiled to Junk Star, and they quietly followed here.

Lu Sheng is good at using electronic devices, and the area they are in happens to be a magnetic field shielding area, so all electronic devices can be used normally. He usually spends most of his time in the villa analyzing and sorting out the information he collects, and does not go out with Louis and the others.

Uncle Wuhua is more like a housekeeper here, responsible for the daily life of everyone in the villa, but when this middle-aged uncle is wearing a thin shirt, the obviously bulging muscles seem to show that he is extraordinarily strong, so Si Nian thinks that the profession of housekeeper should not be this uncle's job.

The division of labor among the few people here is clear, and after Si Nian came here, he really didn't know what he could do for a while.

I wanted to go hunting with Louis, but I was a very outstanding skill in that world, and when I got here, I became a weak scum with a negative five combat effectiveness.

He saw with his own eyes that Lu Sheng, who didn't look strong, broke a metal pipe that had always been thick into a U-shape with his bare hands because he lacked a spare part when repairing the detector.

After this incident, he finally realized the gap between himself and this group of people.

And he can't carry out such work as intelligence analysis and collection.

This kind of "high-tech" equipment beyond his ability is beyond his capabilities, and he can't even find a switch, let alone operate it.

In the end, he could only help Uncle Wuhua with some logistics work, and finally didn't let himself become an idle waste.

At this moment, he was carrying a plate of broth on the table.

After looking around and finding that there was no one around, Si Nian quietly touched his left hand, and a black stone bracelet on his wrist was particularly conspicuous.

Si Nian didn't like slightly feminine things like bracelets, but this stone bracelet couldn't be taken off since it was put on his hand, so he could only reluctantly accept this fact.

The stone bracelet was actually transformed from that black stone, and at the moment when the rat tide occurred, the black stone suddenly "flowed" onto Si Nian's wrist as if it had melted. It's just that he was too flustered at that time, and Si Nian didn't have time to pay attention to it at all.

This bracelet is the latest carrier of the "contract".

When I met Louis and his party, the contract finally gave me the first task since it was signed - to join Louis's team.

When this task appeared in front of Si Nian in the form of a light curtain, he was taken aback. But fortunately, his expression never changed much, so it didn't attract the attention of others.

This is the first time that Si Nian is glad that his expression is "consistent".

He observed the reactions of the others, and it seemed that except for him, the people around him were completely unaware of the existence of this light curtain.

Only then did he feel relieved to check the contents of the light curtain.

The light curtain is not large, and the content is very concise and clear, as if I am worried that saying too much will reveal something.

After he was invited to join the small team, the light curtain changed.

The mission "Join Team Louis" has an extra parenthesis after it, and the word "completed" is written in it.

He still remembered that he had said at the beginning of the contract that there would be rewards for completing the mission, and just as he thought about it, the light curtain changed again.

Seeing that the prize column was written with "upgradeable space" and "easy guide", Si Nian was in ecstasy at first, and then the heat gradually cooled down.

Although he had only been in contact for a long time, he had already deeply realized the pitfalls of this contract.

There was no such thing as a free lunch, and he didn't think it would do him such a good thing.

Sure enough, after careful research, he found that this so-called upgradeable space was no more than the size of a cubic meter. Of course, this is not the key, and the most unacceptable thing is that it not only has a time limit but also charges a certain "royalty" when it is opened.

After calculating, about five percent of the stored items will be deducted for one use!

Don't underestimate this number, when there are not many things and the value is not high, it may not be reflected, and when you really want to put valuable things in, you will know how powerful this amount is.

If you don't want to be deducted, you can use points to deduct it, but unfortunately he has just got a hundred points now, and he doesn't dare to use it lightly before he knows the use of points.

As for the other guide, it's even more pitiful.

Because it is a "beginner's easy" version of the guide, it is not very useful at all, except for some superficial guidance.

But no matter what, something is better than nothing, like the carcass of the sharp-toothed rat lying in his space, without this reward, he would not have been able to gain this at all.

The carcasses of the spurious rats collected secretly are said to fetch a good price here, especially for their furs, which are of great practical value. It's just that he doesn't know how to take things out for the time being, so he keeps putting them in the space. He's been here for a short time, and there's nothing good for him to expose too much until he's absolutely sure.

Just thinking about how to make better use of these corpses, Wuhua walked over quietly with a huge plate.

In terms of appearance, Wuhua is a bit like a mixed race. He has black hair and relatively three-dimensional features, and his beautiful brown eyes often reveal the light of wisdom.

When they met for the first time, the middle-aged handsome uncle smiled gently, and for a moment, Si Nian felt that his heart was completely at peace, as if he had found a close elder in this strange world.

If Si Nian loves Louis like a younger brother, for Wuhua, it is an uncle's reverence.

On the plate Wuhua was holding was some paste, which he had made from the items Louis had brought back.

Compared to the nutrients sold in the world, this paste is relatively low in nutrients and does not look very good. However, I don't know what kind of method the other party has adopted, and the taste is not inferior to the nutrients made by professional blenders in large stores.

Looking at the broth I just put on the table, although it looks a little bland because of the restrictions of ingredients, the taste is really not bad at all. The meat of the sharp-toothed rat is a little fishy, but after Wuhua added a little bit of peel that he didn't know where to get it and boiled it together, this taste suddenly became a unique and attractive smell.

Si Nian couldn't imagine what kind of delicious dishes the other party would be able to make if he could give Wuhua enough ingredients.

However, he only thought about it, knowing that even if it wasn't in the garbage star, the ingredients available for human consumption were quite limited.

Si Nian accidentally learned from Hank's chat with Joe that in this world, there are not many high-quality environments suitable for plant growth, coupled with the extreme expansion of the population, natural foods, such as vegetables and fruits, are not cheap, which also leads to the depression of the entire restaurant industry.

In its place, there is the rise of synthetic foods such as nutrient solutions, nutrients, and compressed biscuits.

Of course, although this kind of synthetic food is indeed no different from the description in ordinary novels in terms of appearance, the taste is not monotonous.

Clever blenders have created synthetic foods with a variety of flavors based on synthetic spices. Fruit-flavored nutrient solution, curry-flavored nutrients, chicken-flavored compressed biscuits, and more.

Si Nian was fortunate enough to get a compressed biscuit from Uncle Hua that was still three days away from the expiration date, although the biscuit was hard, and it took at least three sips of water to swallow it, but in terms of taste, it did have a strong beef flavor.

However, for Si Nian, this kind of taste is like all kinds of food made with flavors in the past, no matter how similar it is, it is always missing that natural taste. Even if it doesn't cause harm to the human body like the flavors used in the past, Si Nian still doesn't like it very much.

In comparison, Uncle Hua's broth is much more natural.

The food was divided and the others came to the restaurant on time, just at the right time.

Si Nian didn't eat much, and the others filled a small pot per person, for Si Nian, that kind of container can really only be described as a "basin".

Even Louis is no exception.

Si Nian felt that he was eating no less than before, but compared to the other four, he was like a child and an adult.

Si Nian ate absentmindedly, he always felt that something had been ignored by himself, but every time he wanted to calm down and think about it, he didn't know where to start.

After cleaning up the tableware, Si Nian's task today was completed.

There are also seasons on the garbage star, and now it is considered summer, so the daylight hours are relatively long.

After dinner, it was not yet dark, and Si Nian sat on the stone steps in the courtyard a little bored.

The world was still quite new to him, and although he joined this small team, it was not an overnight thing to really integrate into it.

Besides, there is very little he can do now, and sometimes when I think about the team's tolerance of him, there is always a strong sense of loss in my heart.

Just as he was a little sluggish, a phantom flickered before his eyes.

The speed of the phantom was too fast, and if it weren't for the subsequent release of the task, Si Nian would almost think that the one qiē just now was just his own illusion.

The contract mission came suddenly, but Si Nian had already prepared. He has been here for three days, this should be the adaptation period given by the contract, and when this time passes, it is natural to get to the point.

"Main quest: Investigate the origin of the phantom and conclude a contract with the phantom owner. Time limit: 7 days. ”

The task description is a little vague, if it weren't for the fact that this task appeared immediately after that fleeting phantom, Si Nian probably didn't know where to start.

But now, since the contract has given a hint, he will follow the phantom to find out.
