Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold - Chapter 250: The Little Mushroom Picker
After leaving Star Wave Island.
Lin Lang went to Patek Square.
There.
Zhuo Yifei had been waiting for a long time—
This time, when Xingfu District encountered a crisis, Zhuo Yifei didn’t hesitate to lead the team to aid them!
Even though!
By the time he received the news and rushed to the district!
The fierce beast had already been dealt with by the old monster!
But in the subsequent work of rebuilding the district, he also made significant contributions!
He demonstrated his loyalty to Lin Lang!
As well as his responsibility as part of the management of “Xingfu District Group”!
Lin Lang carefully observed Zhuo Yifei in front of him, noticing that after a few days apart, he seemed more mature and steady!
What’s more!
He managed the previously disorganized Gods’ Team in a well-ordered manner!
Oh! No, that’s not right!
The “Gods’ Team” has now been renamed the “Brave Corps”!
Each member was full of vigor and spirit!
Lin Lang was very pleased!
…
But just then!
The former leader of the Gods’ Team — You Dali, appeared untimely.
He looked at Zhuo Yifei with dissatisfaction!
He attempted to complain to Lin Lang:
“Master Lin Lang, look at Zhuo Yifei, how is he any better than me? You might as well let me manage the Brave Corps!”
Lin Lang hearing this, only gave a faint smile, his gaze sharp as he looked at You Dali:
“Oh? Do you think you are qualified now? When your combat power is higher than his, we can talk about this again!”
“This…”
You Dali was left speechless.
And as Zhuo Yifei listened on the side, a warmth surged in his heart.
He knew that Lin Lang’s trust and affirmation were in this.
So!
He became even more determined to lead the Brave Corps to greater strength!
…
And to commend Zhuo Yifei’s outstanding performance, Lin Lang awarded him some precious elixirs, hoping they could help him further enhance his strength.
Zhuo Yifei accepted the elixirs, his eyes glowing with gratitude:
“Thank you, sir!”
Afterwards!
Lin Lang then went to the Queen’s Hall to find Yan Lan.
This.
Was the primary reason he came here!
…
In the café!
The moment Lin Lang appeared!
Yan Lan’s expression subtly changed.
Yet, different from before, in that obvious displeasure, there was also a hint of shyness!
Because she too knew what Lin Lang came for today!
So!
She immediately dismissed the women around her!
Then.
Walked voluntarily to her bedroom.
Lin Lang naturally followed her in.
…
“Long time no see…”
In the bedroom.
Lin Lang was about to greet her to lighten the awkward atmosphere!
But Yan Lan, without patience, interjected:
“Alright, hurry up!”
Lin Lang hearing this, gave a slight smile:
“That makes it even better.”
So!
The two ignited a passionate flame within each other like dry wood!
After a moment of entanglement!
Yan Lan crawled out of Lin Lang’s embrace.
Though she appeared tired.
Her spirit was resolute as she said:
“I still owe you nineteen more times, let’s settle it all today!”
Lin Lang, upon hearing this, just shook his head and said:
“No rush, just repay slowly later… I said, I value quality over quantity.”
“But…”
Yan Lan, biting her lip, was quite annoyed.
“You better not raise the interest! Even if you do, don’t raise it too much!”
Lin Lang:
“…”
Why does it feel like this tsundere queen is getting increasingly strange!
…
Afterwards!
Lin Lang, feeling refreshed, returned to Xingfu District.
…
He gathered all the women together.
Then he told them about his plan to go to Qingfeng City!
…
Upon learning that Lin Lang was about to embark on a trip far away!
Lü Su Ran’s face showed a longing expression—
She had always had a dream!
That was to see this vast world, to experience those adventures and encounters that only existed in books.
Looking at Lü Su Ran’s eyes filled with yearning, a tender feeling surged in Lin Lang’s heart.
He remembered the dream Lü Su Ran once shared with him, so he decided—
To take her along!
But!
The other women were somewhat unhappy:
“Lin Lang, are you just taking Su Ran alone?!”
Lin Lang felt a bit troubled:
“I’m not going on a vacation, I’m going to catch frogs!”
Should I bring all of them?
A whole group of chattering women entering the forest to catch frogs?
He could hardly imagine that scene—
However.
After some heavy contemplation!
Lin Lang decided to take one more woman along, to help take care of Lü Su Ran—
So!
It’s decided, it’s you!
Ding, Xin, Rou!
“Xinrou?”
Upon hearing Lin Lang’s choice, the women were shocked!
Totally unexpected!
It turned out to be Ding Xinrou!
This woman who is like a robot, cold and emotionless?
However.
Lin Lang had his own considerations—
Although Ding Xinrou is indifferent in personality, her strength is undeniable!
On the journey, she can act as Lü Su Ran’s protector, ensuring her safety.
More importantly, Ding Xinrou’s calmness and rationality often prove crucial at critical moments—
The key is that she’s quite worry-free.
“Why bring Xinrou?”
Lin Lang explained to the women.
“It’s because she’s not good at expressing herself, so I want to take her out to experience the world, to find truth, kindness, and beauty.”
Though, this might sound somewhat far-fetched.
But upon hearing this, the women could only nod in agreement.
They knew that Lin Lang’s decisions were always well thought out, and he always considered everyone’s safety and happiness—
Except for Ding Xinyi!
Her eyes sparkled, secretly delighted:
“Great! I can switch consciousness with my sister anytime, which means I can go too!”
…
And so!
Lin Lang, Lü Su Ran, and Ding Xinrou!
Embarked on a new journey.
…
Lin Lang released Spiritual Qi, taking Lü Su Ran and Ding Xinrou into the sky.
They flew towards Qingfeng City!
Lin Lang didn’t bring Xiaohu—
Leaving Xiaohu at Xingfu District as a gatekeeping Divine Beast!
…
A journey of hundreds of kilometers is neither too far nor too close.
But because he brought the women.
They inevitably had to enjoy the scenery along the way.
Take some photos and whatnot!
So it took Lin Lang one or two hours to arrive.
…
Qingfeng City!
The trio landed in an urban forest!
The Red Mist here was much thicker than they expected!
“There’s too much Red Mist here, it feels like stepping into another world.”
Lü Su Ran held Lin Lang’s arm with one hand, and with the other, she took out a handkerchief to lightly cover her mouth and nose, avoiding inhaling too much mist.
Ding Xinrou, on the other hand, observed their surroundings with even more caution!
Numerous gigantic plants emerged from the ground!
Their branches and leaves intertwined, forming natural labyrinths, making it difficult to walk freely on the ground!
Her eyes sparkled with curiosity and unease!
It seemed.
They had lived in Bright Moon City for too long, forgetting that this was what the world really looked like after doomsday!
Lin Lang appeared composed.
He took a deep breath.
A great amount of Spiritual Qi was inhaled into his body, then fused into his Superpower Core!
Even!
The mist around him became slightly lighter!
Then.
Lin Lang released his Divine Sense—
With his probing, the Red Mist and plants seemed to become transparent, everything was clearly visible:
“Hmm, someone?”
…
“Lalala!”
“Lalala!”
A simple and pure song suddenly came from deep within the forest!
The trio looked in the direction of the sound.
Amid the distant trees and grass!
There was a little girl wearing rough clothes, with two small braids tied in her hair!
She was squatting in front of a clump of weeds.
Her hands skillfully weaving through the grass!
Soon!
She caught a colorful mushroom the size of an adult’s fist!
Put it in her basket.
…
The three of them approached.
Discovering the little girl’s basket was already full of those mushrooms, emitting a faint fluorescent glow!
“Colorful mushrooms? Aren’t these poisonous?”
Lü Su Ran exclaimed in surprise.
But Lin Lang raised what he thought was a kind smile, walked towards the little girl, and greeted her:
“Hello, little girl! What are you doing here?”
The little girl turned around, revealing a tender and delicate face!
Yet, her eyes held a hint of fear when looking at Lin Lang—
This big brother’s smile is so scary!
But!
When she saw Lü Su Ran and Ding Xinrou behind Lin Lang, those two especially beautiful big sisters!
The fear in her eyes disappeared!
Such beautiful sisters!
They mustn’t be bad people!
“I’m picking mushrooms… these mushrooms are edible.”
The little girl timidly replied.
“Are these mushrooms really not poisonous…”
But just then!
A deafening roar shattered the silence!
A massive Fierce Beast, covered in black scales and eyes burning like flames, burst from the forest, charging straight at the little girl!
“Watch out!”
Lü Su Ran instinctively shouted!
But Lin Lang, with quick reflexes, flashed in front of the little girl in an instant!
A powerful wave of energy rippled out, forming an impenetrable barrier!
Blocking the Fierce Beast firmly outside!
“Ah!”
The little girl turned pale with fright, retreating repeatedly!
