I understand what the furry ones are saying. I'm going crazy killing people in the apocalypse.

Chapter 48: Rock Giant
Nowadays, there are more and more people in Taoyuan Base, so it is necessary to formulate laws and regulations to restrain everyone's behavior. Qu Jin thought about this problem and said directly:
"The base currently needs to formulate some regulations and penalties. If you can, you can stay in the affairs center to help formulate and improve them. The daily salary is 100 gold coins."

Fu Qiqi and Wang Lingling were very surprised to hear this. Collecting wood and stone also costs 100 gold coins. If they have to choose, they would of course choose the easy and less tiring one.

"We can!"

They both answered in unison.

After a whole day of discussion and revision, a new version was completed in the evening. Tomorrow, this management regulation will be printed into a manual and distributed to every resident of Taoyuan Base.

Qu Jin glanced at the time and said, "I'll leave the printing to you. Come to the business center at 8:30 tomorrow."

Ji Li went out to fight monsters and came back to the base. After hearing Qu Jin's report, she patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's great to have you at Taoyuan Base, Deputy Commander Qu. I'll give you a raise!"

Qu Jin shook his head: "I just hope that the base can get better and better." He said seriously, "Lord, don't talk about whether to increase the salary or not. I don't care how much money it is."

"..."

If this happened before the end of the world, employees like Qu Jin would definitely be exploited by the capitalists. Ji Li thought: Since he doesn't want money, I'll just give him a house someday.

OK, it’s a happy decision.

Without saying anything else, Ji Li greeted him and drove to the bakery. As soon as she got off the car, she saw Liu Yi busy in front of the machine. When she heard the door open, Liu Yi turned around and said in surprise: "Lord, why are you here?"

"I'm here to take a look."

Ji Li strolled into the store and smelled a strong, sweet, creamy aroma.

Liu Yi brought out the baking tray and greeted cheerfully: "Lord, you came at the right time. I made coconut buns today. Would you like to try them?"

The freshly baked bread is still steaming, and the custard-coconut paste on the surface looks delicious.

Liu Yi took one with a clip and put it in a paper bag and handed it over: "I bought this coconut flakes at the convenience store this morning. I don't have much food right now, so I can only make some simple bread and biscuits."

Ji Li took a bite of the hot coconut bun, and the sweet and soft coconut milk aroma spread in her mouth. While chewing the bread, she praised vaguely, "Super delicious!"

Liu Yi was naturally very happy that her food was praised. She took two more paper bags and packed the remaining five coconut bread bags and placed them on the glass cabinet: "As long as they taste good, you can take these back for a midnight snack."

Ji Li finished the coconut bun in her hand and took out the card from her pocket: "How many gold coins are there in total?"

As the manager of the bakery, Liu Yi has some autonomy and can set his own prices. In addition, he can receive a 5% commission if the monthly turnover exceeds 30,000 gold coins.

"That's thirty gold coins in total."

After paying with the card, Ji Li asked casually, "Can you handle the store by yourself?"

Liu Yi: "I can handle it for now, but I will have to hire two more employees when the base has more people."

Ji Li said "oh" and chatted briefly for a few more words. Then she looked at the time and picked up the coconut bread to go to the cafeteria to get food.

There was nothing to do after dinner, so Ji Li went to the Pet Plaza to play with the furry animals for a while, and waited until eight o'clock to return by bus.

Currently, the bus service at the base runs until 9 o'clock sharp, and after the last bus leaves at 9 o'clock, you will have to walk.

After returning to the cabin, washing up and changing into pajamas, the little girl gradually fell asleep hugging a thin blanket.

The next day, Ji Li was awakened by the game.

When I opened my eyes blearily, I saw a panel pop up automatically, and the bloody graffiti words were extremely conspicuous.

[Announcement of Doomsday Law: The novice protection period has ended, and the national survival doomsday game has officially begun. I hope all players will work hard to survive to the end and win]

???

Ji Li rubbed her eyes in disbelief and confirmed the announcement again. She was completely stunned.

There is actually a protection period for newbies?
No, so many people died in an extreme heat wave. You say this is a protection period for beginners? Who are they protecting?

Ji Li's mind was full of questions. She stared at the notice blankly for a long time, and her mood became a little depressed.

And at the same time.

The residents of the entire Taoyuan base were furious about this announcement.

"What does it mean?"

"Novice protection period? Does that mean it will be harder to survive in the future?"

"We finally settled down, but this crappy game has come up with this again. What should we do..."

"Damn it! Who has so many monsters in the protection period? This bastard game is deliberately making things difficult for us."

Liang Jing and his team came out of the room: "Everyone calm down and listen to me." He looked at the people who were discussing, "We can't lose our composure because of this announcement. Nothing has happened yet, and we still have time to prepare..."

"Captain Liang is right. We can't lose our composure. We've gotten through it before. What are we afraid of?"

"You've got a life to live, so just do it!"

"To be honest, I'm ready to die, it doesn't matter..."

Everyone was very panicked when they first learned about this, but they gradually calmed down after hearing someone say this.

Liang Jing comforted him, "Okay, everyone go to the cafeteria to have breakfast first. I will go discuss this matter with the Lord."

Here.

Ji Li came to the affairs center.

Qu Jin received the notice and hurried over: "Lord." He said with a serious face, "We have to prepare in advance. I don't know what will happen after the novice protection period..."

"Let's have a meeting and invite Liang Jing and the others."

Everything that is happening now is contrary to the original plot. Ji Li didn't know there was such a thing as a novice protection period. All she can do next is to consider what to do next depending on the situation.

I discussed with Qu Jin and Liang Jing for the whole morning and the meeting ended at noon.

The content of the game announcement made Ji Li feel stressed. The first thing to do was to work hard to complete the tasks and upgrade the base, and the second was to prepare enough food and supplies to deal with emergencies.

……

……

At that time, Shahe District, Lanjiang City.

In the endless desert, huge brown figures that have been sleeping for a long time slowly wake up. They slowly emerge from the desert and make deafening roars.

【Name: Rock Giant】

【Level: 10】

[Health volume: 3000]

[Other descriptions: Indestructible]

The small base five kilometers away from the desert was unaware of the impending danger, so they formed a team and went out to collect and search for supplies as usual, returning one after another in the evening.

The monster also followed. Every step its heavy and huge figure took on the ground made a rumbling sound like an earthquake.

The person in charge of guarding the base saw the monster approaching from afar, and immediately cried out in surprise, and hurriedly told others: "There is a monster! The monster is coming, run, run..."

The strange sound of the ground shaking spread throughout the base. When everyone saw the huge figure, they were instantly frightened and hurried back to the house to pack up and flee.
