The apocalyptic livestream attracted a lot of haters, alarming the government.

[Three Foxes: Are they going to start drawing lucky viewers again? How exciting!]

[Black frame: What rules?]

[Dawn's Flame: Lottery, Lottery]

[SilverMoon315: Lottery? When is the lottery? You noob, let me carry you!]

[Mouse Me: Trash streamer, dare to hit me?]

[Cosmic Light: Stop your nonsense, you coward! Go ahead and hit me if you dare!]

[Master of slacking off: If I were a streamer, I'd send all the ones I drew to their deaths; they're a bunch of useless trash dragging the team down.]

[Pharaoh Elden: What's going on? Why are there so many haters?]

[Milk and Egg Not Bland: Where did this bunch of trash come from?]

[Nine Returns to One: Can it even teleport viewers there? I don't believe it, try and draw me if you dare!]

……

Ye Xiao was a little confused as he looked at the barrage of trolls in the live stream chat.

He took a closer look and realized that most of these trolls were new IDs and completely unfamiliar.

It was as if someone had hired an online army. Ye Xiao was a little puzzled, but this guy called "Master of Slacking Off" was quite outstanding.

Ye Xiao sneered inwardly, really hoping this guy would be the next lucky audience member. He was curious to know if this guy was willing to die now that he was here.

Ye Xiao frowned, looking at the constant barrage of trolls on the screen, and hesitated.

"No rush, let's wait two more days before drawing the sample. Let me find out more about the base first."

Bringing these guys over now will only cause more trouble, since we never know what kind of weirdos we'll end up with.

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Liang Kai and Zhou Qirui nodded in agreement.

Liang Kai said, "Yes, let's find out about the base situation first. If we send someone over now, and it turns out to be a hindrance, it will only cause us more trouble."

Liang Kai and Zhou Qirui are people who have been through it all; they personally experienced a series of changes in mindset after arriving here.

It's clear that adjusting one's mindset and adapting to life here will inevitably take time.

Zhou Qirui knew all too well how unexpected his arrival had been back then, and now, he didn't want someone just like him to suddenly appear.

Moreover, the base was right in front of them, and they didn't want anything to go wrong.

Ye Xiao stood up, and the three of them went back to the room.

A candle was lit in the corner of the room. Chen Ge and the others were still awake, chatting in bed.

Ye Xiao and the other two took off their coats and smelled the rancid stench on their bodies. Ye Xiao turned his head away in disgust.

It's really annoying that you can't take a shower outside. There should be water for showering inside the base, right?

Thinking this, Ye Xiao silently sat down, and Chen Ge's voice came from beside him.

"Ye Xiao, are we going to the base tomorrow?"

Ye Xiao hesitated for a moment, "Why don't we stay here for a couple of days and find out the situation at the base first?"

Chen Ge nodded. "That's what I was thinking too. How about we go get some seed kernels tomorrow and check out the base first?"

Ye Xiao nodded, "Okay, I heard that the rent for this base is five seed cores per month. Do you think it's expensive?"

Ah Zhao propped himself up and asked, "Five seed cores? Big ones and small ones?"

Zhou Qirui answered from the side, "It's just ordinary."

Ah Zhao waved his hand, "That's easy, but there are too few of us, only four. Going out to collect seed cores is still quite dangerous."

Big Black nodded, "We need at least two more people, after all, we still need to make inhibitors."

Ye Xiao was a little puzzled, "Is being an adventurer the only option? Can't we run something else in the base?"

Old Han leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. "There are few businesses that can be done in the base. Most of the resources are monopolized by the upper echelons of the base."

"Ordinary people just sell miscellaneous items; the more profitable ones are those who modify vehicles for adventure teams."

Ah Zhao suddenly got excited and said, "Hey, if we could open a car modification shop in the base, we wouldn't have to worry about anything."

A car modification shop?

Ye Xiao stroked his chin, thinking that this was indeed feasible. He could exchange all the tools he had points for, and these wouldn't cost many points.

Most importantly, it also allows Chen Ge and the others to stay at the base and be there to take care of them at any time.

Upon hearing about the car modification shop, Liang Kai became interested and quickly reached out to pat Ye Xiao's blanket.

"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, this is really a good idea!"

Ye Xiao nodded, "Okay, if you need any tools, make a list, and I might be able to get them."

"Alright, let's rest first. We'll go to the base later and see what happens."

Ah Zhao got up and blew out the candles, and everyone snuggled into their blankets and lay down.

Ye Xiao lay on the floor, no longer paying attention to the live stream.

I haven't been sleeping well these past few days, but I can finally get a good rest today.

The mat beneath him wasn't hard; it was covered with a soft quilt, and the quilt on his body must have been sun-dried.

Unlike the blankets in my previous room, which were covered in dust and made my respiratory tract feel very spicy when I slept at night, these blankets are much better now.

As he pondered, Ye Xiao slowly drifted into a drowsy state and fell asleep.

Click, click, click...

At dawn, the sky was just beginning to lighten, but the rising sun was obscured by large patches of dark clouds, and sporadic raindrops began to patter against the tin and wooden planks covering the windows.

Ye Xiao and the others were still fast asleep in the room, while A Zhao and Da Hei slept on the periphery of the group, with guns still clutched in their hands under the covers.

This was a habit they developed after the cataclysm, but last night was a rare one for them that they didn't have to keep watch.

Nothing happened peacefully, and the two of them slept soundly.

Thump, thump, thump, a series of hurried footsteps came running down from upstairs.

Immediately afterwards, there was a series of urgent knocks on the door.

"Big brother, brothers, wake up!"

The anxious sounds at the door woke Ye Xiao and the others. Zhou Qirui and Liang Kai were yawning and stretching in their blankets.

Chen Ge yawned and sat up. A Zhao rubbed his eyes, came to his senses, and darted to the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Sister Lin upstairs looking anxious.

"Big brother, something bad has happened! It's raining!"

"what?"

Upon hearing the word "rain," Ah Zhao, standing at the door, instantly snapped out of his daze and turned to shout to the people inside:

"Oh no, it's raining!"

"It's raining?"

Dahei, Chen Ge, and the others threw off their blankets and stood up. They hurriedly left the room and, as soon as they reached the living room, they heard the sound of raindrops hitting the ground outside.

Ye Xiao yawned, still somewhat confused. He scratched his neck and slowly walked to the door of the room. Looking at the tense-looking group of people, he felt completely bewildered.

"What's wrong? It's just raining, why are you all so worried?"

In Ye Xiao's mind, shouldn't rain mean the source of clean water?

But why do these people look so nervous and uneasy?
