Chapter 61: Wandering Artist
Passing the Little Bird Swimwear shop, the houses on both sides of the road also increased, giving a Swiss town feeling.
The scenery is very nice, with tall mountain ranges covered in snow at the top, and waterfalls like a glistening white ribbon.
It really is a scenic area.
Passing the culvert, when coming out the rain had stopped, the wooden building next to the parking plaza was old but had no traces of acid rain corrosion.
Because this place as an instance is separately isolated?
The wooden house nearby, judging by the decoration it was originally a coffee and dessert shop, not sure if there are still supplies.
Yu Jiang drove so fast, even activating the autopilot function, rushing in first, just to grab some supplies and pick a good parking spot.
She grabbed the crowbar and got out of the vehicle, practicing scavenging wherever she went to the fullest!
The coffee shop’s glass door wasn’t closed, the tables and chairs inside were all broken, and the counter was covered in a layer of dust.
Based on Yu Jiang’s previous experience, after passing the culvert, the buildings around the instance’s parking plaza won’t have food, water, energy, or those kinds of supplies.
But you can gather and recycle, and there will be some discarded items.
For example, the empty glass jar she found in the counter, originally used to hold coffee beans.
And two unopened bags of oiled paper, used for baking cakes.
Nothing else, Yu Jiang smashed all the tables and chairs into wood, and also recycled the integrated oven that couldn’t be moved later, obtaining iron blocks, steel blocks, and a stainless steel glass.
She didn’t spare the tables and chairs upstairs either, after searching the wooden house, Yu Jiang wandered around the surroundings again, quickly gathering the medicinal herbs.
After doing these things, other vehicles also drove in.
The players behind also wanted to search the surroundings first to see if they could find anything, they ran very fast when getting out of the vehicle, but unexpectedly after circling around, the surroundings were cleaner than their faces.
Really nothing at all.
“Who was it, so fast? Not even a wild vegetable in sight!” Someone couldn’t help but say.
Yu Jiang with empty hands, blending in with a disappointed look and chiming in, “Yeah, too fast.”
Thinking in her heart: Grabbing supplies has to be fast.
She only picked a few dandelions for drug manufacturing, planning to plant some more herself when the weather is good, this thing is easy to grow and not picky about environment.
As for other wild vegetables, she didn’t see any either.
A few players looked at each other, and behind the wooden house they saw the over 2-meter-tall off-road pickup truck.
“Damn! It’s the one mentioned on the public screen, the big shot is in the same team as us?”
As soon as this was said, everyone opened their eyes wide to look around, wanting to catch a glimpse of the big shot on the leaderboard.
They searched with their gazes for a long time but didn’t spot anyone, the inside of the vehicle was also obscured tightly.
Curtains drawn, there was a cloth curtain behind the driver’s seat, not even a gap exposed.
The setup in the driver’s seat was also simple, except for a milky yellow thermos cup, a jar of Longjing tea, a deep blue windproof and waterproof jacket, and a rabbit figurine, nothing else.
Perspective issue, the Tyrannosaurus Rex Pickup Truck’s front hood was too high, couldn’t see the endless summer car incense clipped to the air conditioning vent.
Just from these things in front, couldn’t tell anything, the vehicle owner’s gender, age, preferences, exactly which person on the leaderboard.
Everyone gathered around discussing for a long time without a conclusion, and at this moment Yu Jiang had already met up with her teammates not far away.
She was wearing a set of old clothes, army green work jacket, black quick-dry work pants, brown short boots, and carrying a super green waterproof bag, the color matching looked messy, sitting on a half-dry rest chair gnawing beef jerky.
Like an apocalypse scavenger, but not quite the tough ruthless person everyone imagined.
When Lightning Mage King jumped down from that cyber cat car blinking electronic screen eyes, he looked around for a long time, his gaze landing on Yu Jiang.
In the few minutes before arriving, he received the captain’s message about what color clothes she was wearing, looked around, and only one person matched.
This color, at a glance her mental state is very beautiful, as expected of a big shot!
Lightning Mage King scratched his self-flattened hair that he tried to smooth with tools and techniques that weren’t great, so it ended up flat like dog-chewed, sneakily approaching to size up Yu Jiang, lowering his voice,
“Captain, is that you, Captain?!”
Yu Jiang had just been gnawing beef jerky until her cheeks hurt, when the two exchanged looks, the scene was somewhat funny.
“No one around, you can speak at normal volume.”
Lightning Mage King nodded, face full of joy, “Finally meeting the big shot, I’m so excited.”
Mainly also having the opportunity to team up with the big shot, he was already a bit impatient for tomorrow’s instance.
Yu Jiang sized up his four-wheeled cat car, this one was really nice-looking, with two ears on it, also very eye-catching, the rear end obviously looked crashed.
Not long after, over twenty or thirty players had arrived at the parking plaza, Pure Love Cockroach and Strawberry Candy also arrived.
At this point, the team was assembled, everyone’s vehicles also parked nearby, could look out for each other if something happened.
With the harvester and cyber cat car parked there, they drew away quite a few gazes staring at the off-road pickup truck.
This instance requires bringing vehicles in, so what kind of car the competitors drive is especially important, this kind of rare vehicle inevitably draws attention.
Many players started looking for teammates, Yu Jiang’s four found a corner to discuss together, not conspicuous here.
Strawberry Candy all gray, but with twin tails baseball bat, and a brick in her bag.
Pure Love Cockroach Spicy Spicy’s outfit was eye-catchingly bright, fluorescent Barbie pink hiking hat, fluorescent yellow-green outdoor jacket, fluorescent purple backpack.
She waved her hand to explain, “I’m not a wandering artist, the brighter the outfit, the more buffs.”
Everyone knows flashy outfits easily get targeted, if not for the buffs, she wouldn’t use so many eye-catching colors.
“I can change when entering the instance.” She added.
“No need.” Yu Jiang shook her head, “In an instance with so many people, players are dense, for racing being in front means getting targeted no matter what you wear, better to have combat power buffs.”
Lightning Mage King agreed, looking at him, his vehicle got targeted all the way, no big deal.
“Right, sis, how to address you once inside the instance?”
Big shot’s nickname and achievement title all hidden, probably doesn’t want to expose identity easily, if they directly call Little Drill Wind people would know.
Yu Jiang: “My name has a Jiang character in it.”
“Then still call you Sister Jiang.” Lightning Mage King followed up.
“Okay, we don’t know the instance’s specific content yet, discussing tactics now is meaningless, wait until tomorrow when the instance opens and rules are announced, then adapt accordingly, first get to know each other, reveal skills is fine.”
Yu Jiang first stated her skills, healing and consumption.
Pure Love Cockroach followed right after, taking out her suona.
The other two looked at her with respect, Lightning Mage King gave a thumbs up, “Suona sounds, ignites the whole field!”
“Don’t mention it, learning this I couldn’t even find a job, preparing for graduation internship at a red and white events one-stop company.”
Pure Love Cockroach thought of the scene using her skill, toes curling to dig out a three-bedroom one-living room.
“My skill weapon is the pig herder, can discharge in a small area.” Lightning Mage King said this, from his expression you know he’s very satisfied with his weapon, though using it is pretty funny too.
Sea King has trident, he has pig herder, both can discharge, rounding it off pig herder = divine weapon.
