The sixth lady of the canyon calmly retracted his gaze and ignored the little fan's cries for help.

He was quick on his hands and feet, and he didn't look back, and he jumped up the wall in a few jumps, and distanced himself from the "beast" through a rapidly turning spatial route.

……

Ideal Town, Academic Affairs Building.

Elizabeth gradually understood what Jiang Qian meant: outdated!

She glanced at Monat who was guarding the door, and the other party was already frowning, and his face was solemn.

Jiang Qian took all these details into account, but he didn't rush or break them, he had to give the other party enough space to make a decision.

After all, if the negotiations between the two sides only stop at the level of the exchange of interests between the leaders and the residents, then the issues related to scientific research and secret medicine mentioned by Little Allen before need to be explored by Jiang Qian through other means.

Jiang Qian has reason to believe that the quest will send out a side quest when Elizabeth makes an invitation, which means that Elizabeth and Monat may be carrying clues related to the "Source of Cataclysm".

"Can you give us some time?"

Elizabeth grimaced, she didn't seem ready to be honest about something more "core".

But she obviously realized the value of Jiang Qian, so she didn't directly deny it or divert from the topic.

"Yes," Jiang Qian nodded, "but my time is limited." ”

"How long will you stay?" Elizabeth asked eagerly.

Jiang Qian quietly stared, it seemed that the other party urgently needed him more than he imagined.

"20 days."

He said with great honesty: "After this time, we may not continue to stay in Ideal Town." ”

The 20-day period is based on the next quest to announce the player's coordinates.

According to Jiang Qian's estimates, the next time the coordinates are announced, there is a high probability that it will trigger a rather bloody battle for resources: maybe it is based on food and survival resources, maybe it is based on side quests, or some other reason that he can't predict yet.

And the closer you get to this point in time, the frequency of unpredictable events will only be higher and not lower.

……

After the fever subsided, Xue Yang woke up from a nightmare.

He sat up from his bed, looked around, and was horrified to find that his surroundings were no longer the cramped locker room he was familiar with!

It was like a ruinous student dormitory, and he was lying on the upper and lower beds in the dormitory, covered with a blanket......

The current environment is much more comfortable than the previous cramped locker room, but it still makes Xue Yang anxious:

Because Jiang Qian is not around!

"Old ginger?!"

Xue Yang called out blankly, he didn't even hope to get an immediate response.

However, Jiang Qian's voice came from above him:

"Where, awake?"

Then, I saw Jiang Qian's legs hanging down from the top bunk, jumping down, putting on his shoes with a calm face, and picking up two pieces of clothing from the back of the chair next to him and throwing them to Xue Yang.

"The residents of Ideal Town donated it, and it's about the same size, so let's change it yourself."

Xue Yang took the clothes and looked at Jiang Qian blankly: "Old Jiang, you ......"

He said, swallowing.

This time it's not because of hunger, it's about nervousness.

“…… You slaughtered the town? ”

Xue Yang asked tentatively, and Jiang Qian looked at him calmly.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, which frightened Xue Yang.

Jiang Qian got up calmly and walked over to open the door.

Xue Yang noticed that Jiang Qian had also changed into a shabby but clean monochrome shirt.

Although it is shabby, it is dressed neatly by Jiang Qian.

This makes him look a lot like a work-study leader who is leading new students who have just entered the school and whose situation is unknown to open the door to a new world.

There was a conversation at the door that made Xue Yang continue to be dazed:

"This is my oil lamp, this is the pen and paper you want, you take it and use it first!"

……

"These quilts, if you don't dislike them, you can use them...... It doesn't matter, I still have some at home, no trouble, no trouble! I'll have to work hard for you to take care of my husband in the future......"

……

"Is Dr. Jiang here? This is the dinner brought by Monat, for two, you use it slowly! ”

……

Xue Yang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and smelled the smell of rice......

After a while, the door closed.

Jiang Qian took the food plate, returned to the room with a large stack of daily necessities, and glanced at Xue Yang with a strange expression: "It's time to eat." ”

Xue Yang was already shocked by Jiang Qian's operation!

Where is this "slaughtering town", this is to give the whole ideal town a bow, right?!

So Xue Yang obediently leaned over to the table, lowered his voice, and asked cautiously, "Old Jiang, what's the situation now?" What have you done to those recalcitrant Aborigines? ”

Jiang Qian slowly pushed the plate to Xue Yang and made a "please" gesture.

took advantage of the other party's eating, and roughly told him what happened when he was unconscious.

Xue Yang was stunned when he heard this, and almost choked on the soup in the bowl.

"So, not only do we not have to go to prison in the future, but we also have to be fed and drunk by them for nothing??"

Xue Yang was so happy!

Jiang Qian chuckled: "It's not enough to eat and drink for nothing, you must contribute." Although they have not yet made a specific request, eighty percent of them have the same mission as us. ”

"Mission?" Xue Yang was even more confused.

When Jiang Qian triggered the side quest, he was still asleep.

But Jiang Qian didn't hide it from him, and briefly described the content of the side quest.

And summarize the current situation:

"Currently, there are 20 days left before the next time the dungeon's coordinates are announced, and we need to complete the side quests within these 20 days. Once the side quest rewards are unlocked and my items are unbanned, the degree of freedom of the dungeon at that time is not at all imaginable now. ”

"Of course, this also means that other players may also have triggered side quests, and it is possible to complete quests before us to gain combat power in the item dimension. Therefore, we still have to be cautious in our words and actions against our fellow super-species players, and not be reckless in negotiations. ”

"In terms of superspecies ability, we currently have food and drink, and we can still protect ourselves, but we still have to pay careful attention to the problem of 'hunger'. You know, there are many players who have chosen a radical way to play a copy of life. ”

"According to my train of thought: their easy access to power now must mean that there is a great price waiting for them; And now that we are suffering from hunger and enduring hardship, there must be a corresponding reward waiting to reward us, otherwise, our way of survival will be meaningless. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Qian's words suddenly changed, and he said with a calm expression:

"Of course, maybe the path we choose now is meaningless, there will be no rewards in the future, and there will be no hope for perseverance......"

These words made Xue Yang's already excited face suddenly freeze, like eating a fly.

Jiang Qian's words made him realize that maybe those terrible patiences before were meaningless and useless, and those so-called "differences", the analogy between mutation and order, maybe were just their wishful thinking!

Xue Yang pondered what Jiang Qian said repeatedly, and finally smiled suspiciously:

"Don't lie to me, old Jiang, you are so smart, will you persist and endure for meaningless things?"
