EBE Chapter 582 Lotus Tower + Undersea City 4
Chapter 582 Lotus Tower + Undersea City 4
After finishing, Xinran looked at the two people inside the protective shield she had created with her spiritual power, unsure of what to do next.
Send it back? But she hasn't found the passage yet.
Xiao Qi teleported her back here before, which was not against the rules. Zhu Xin was with her by chance, but it certainly cannot act arbitrarily against others.
Save them? That would require providing food and lodging, and things like Haixia City aren't cheap. Should we make them work for us here to pay off our debts?
I can't just not work. Although it's not hard for me to accumulate points, I can't just support two grown men for nothing.
Xinran was still debating whether to save him or not when Xiaoqi spoke up: "Host, your friend is in trouble. Go back quickly."
"Zhu Xin?"
"Yes, someone is trying to steal the wakame seaweed she just collected."
Saving lives was the priority, so she didn't have time to think about anything else. She simply put the two people into her space and would release them before they woke up.
Xin Ran rushed back and saw that Zhu Xin was already bleeding and was fighting with two girls in the water.
Beside them stood another girl, an accomplice, holding a net bag filled with vegetables that made up most of her skirt, watching the three of them make their move.
Judging from the situation, it seems that these three people stole something, and Zhu Xin only attacked them because she wouldn't let them leave.
Xin Ran swam over and pulled Zhu Xin behind her, then stepped forward and broke the hand of the other girl who was about to stab someone with a knife.
The girl instinctively opened her mouth and cried out in pain. Seawater entered her respirator, making it difficult for her to breathe, and her mouth was filled with even more seawater.
Her companion lunged at Xinran from the side, but before she could even touch her, she was kicked far away.
That kick was quite powerful; it would at least cause her internal injuries, preventing her from getting up for a short time.
The girl holding the net nearby realized something was wrong when she saw this, and immediately turned around and swam away in one direction.
Zhu Xin became anxious and immediately tried to chase after them, but Xin Ran stopped her and gestured, "I'll go."
She quickly caught up, grabbed the person by the back of the neck, slammed her head against the rocks until she was unconscious, and only then did she let go.
She returned to Zhu Xin's side and used sign language to say, "You're injured. I'll take you home first."
Zhu Xin knew her own situation, but hearing that she didn't plan to go back yet, she gestured anxiously.
What about you? We've had a good day, let's head back now.
Xin Ran shook her head: "Go back and bandage your wound first."
Zhu Xin had a cut on her arm. She checked the wound and saw that it wasn't deep; some medicine would heal it.
There are many plants in the sea that have mutated and have medicinal value, and almost everyone collects them.
Everyone inevitably gets injured on their first trip to the sea, so everyone is prepared just in case.
Seeing that Zhu Xin was about to say something, Xin Ran simply pushed her and swam forward.
The two returned to the sealed room at the exit. Zhu Xin took off the ventilator and held her hand, saying, "Xiao Ran, come back with me too. This seaweed is enough for us to eat for two days."
Xinran made up an excuse for going out: "I killed a mutated animal and left it somewhere without bringing it back."
She hadn't explored enough areas, and going back so early would be a waste of time.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xin's eyes widened slightly: "Wow, you're amazing! You killed a mutated animal all by yourself. Are you injured? Let me see."
Her excited expression quickly turned into worry, and she nervously pulled Xinran to check everything over.
Seeing how anxious she was, Xinran shook her head and patted her hand: "No, don't worry."
"That's good." Zhu Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past, when the two of them went to the sea, they could only kill a small mutated animal if they risked their lives or were lucky.
So even though she knew Xinran was very capable, Zhu Xin was still worried about her. The two had become accustomed to each other's company, and she couldn't accept that her good friend would have an accident.
They have supported each other for many years. They are both struggling to live in this difficult world, and losing one of them would be despair for the other.
Xinran said with a smile, "So if I don't bring it back, wouldn't someone else benefit from it?"
"Yes, yes, go ahead and be careful. If you encounter anyone, just hide. Don't fight with other people."
Seeing that she was genuinely worried about him, Xinran smiled and said, "And you're the one talking? Fighting three people all by yourself?"
Hearing this, Zhu Xin was a little embarrassed: "Hehe, I was just thinking that this is something we finally found with great difficulty, so we definitely can't give it to them."
After she finished speaking, she forgot about her injured arm and even raised her hand to touch her hair: "Ouch! That hurts!"
"Hehehe, if it hurts, go back and apply the medicine quickly. I'll be back as soon as possible."
"Okay, then I'll go back and wait for you."
Xin Ran nodded, but then remembered something and turned back: "Oh right, when you go back, pack all our things and just pack them up."
She had just recalled the original owner's memories that someone had seen that they were just two girls outnumbered and tried to steal their food, but they fought back together.
She felt that if she didn't take her with her, Zhu Xin would be bullied to death by everyone.
Zhu Xin was puzzled: "Huh? Why?"
"Keep this safe, I'll tell you when I get back."
Trusting her, Zhu Xin didn't ask any more questions and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Xinran returned to the sea, and to speed up her exploration, this time she transformed into a streak of light and swiftly swam through the ocean.
Inside the space, Yunshang transmitted her voice, "Master, the two people you put into the space are about to wake up."
"Knock them out first, then treat their injuries to save their lives. I don't have time to deal with them right now."
"Ok."
Xiao Qi's lips twitched upon hearing this: "Host, these two can be considered the chosen ones of another world, and you treat them so casually."
"You said yourself that it's from another world. Since it's been sent over, I'll call the shots."
"Okay, host, you can go ahead with your work."
Xin Ran curled the corners of her lips. She discovered that there really were all sorts of mutated plants and animals in this sea.
About two hours later, she finally found some traces of time travel in one place.
Thinking back to when she found Li Lianhua and Di Feisheng, she realized that she hadn't noticed anything unusual while they were nearby.
This indicates that the passageway here is mobile, while the passageway in the Lotus Tower world over there is likely fixed.
With no fixed route, it seems we'll have to improvise.
Since she was already there, she killed quite a few mutated animals to earn more points for moving.
Xinran returned to the entrance of the underwater city and took out a few mutated animals.
She brought back a large number of mutated animals, so the route she took back this time was different from before.
The underwater city has a dedicated transport channel. You can hand your items to the staff inside, and they will transport them to the exchange point without you having to carry them yourself.
Xinran took the elevator to the mall's redemption counter on the first floor. After exchanging all the mutated animals for points, her account became rich.
