Chapter 89 : Flowers are chasing us.
Flowers are chasing us. (Chapter 89)
Don't care about black cats or white cats; if you can catch mice, you're a good cat!
Hearing Gu Luoyu's praise, Ye Sheng felt a momentary weakness but quickly composed herself and calmly accepted the orders.
After all, it was her arrows that had taken down the two-headed long-tailed rat.
That was a fact!

She deserved the praise~

However, before Ye Sheng could continue shooting, the two-headed long-tailed rats began to retreat rapidly.
Once the convoy brought out the powerful insect repellent balls, the two-headed long-tailed rats seemed to be overwhelmed by the gag-inducing smell.
They hid their faces, retched, and dragged their tails as they fled, leaving behind only the injured.
Ye Sheng felt a pang of regret, she had wanted to kill a few more rats!
Е̄ n̆ u m̆ а
But still...
"Gu Luoyu, if the convoy had such effective rat repellent, why didn’t they use it earlier?"
Ye Sheng sidled up to Gu Luoyu and whispered discreetly.
Compared to her limited knowledge of the wasteland world, Gu Luoyu, clearly knew much more.

Especially since Gu Luoyu had previously worked for the base, she had access to information that ordinary people didn’t.
There must have been some internal communication among them.
E̊n̊ ūṁ а
Looking down at Ye Sheng’s adorable, sneaky demeanor, Gu Luoyu couldn’t help but smile.
She leaned in closer to Ye Sheng’s ear and whispered, "The two-headed long-tailed rats are highly vindictive. The best approach is to annihilate them completely, but that’s clearly beyond the capabilities of the convoy. We can only manage the situation as it unfolds."
Of course, the Esper Squad hadn’t intervened either; they had merely observed from the sidelines.
With only the mercenaries in the convoy, they could only defend themselves.
It was nearly impossible for them to wipe out all the rats... It was clear that while the Esper Squad was ostensibly protecting the convoy, they had another agenda.
As for what that was?

It wasn’t hard to guess.
The Dark Jade Lotus they had picked up this time...
"Vindictive?"
"Yes, if the two-headed long-tailed rat were human, it would hold a grudge for three months and wait for the right moment to retaliate."
"..."
Ye Sheng was stunned.
Е̄ ńu ḿ_а́. і̃ ḋ
These rats could hold grudges too!
After that, it became evident that Gu Luoyu wasn’t the only one who knew about the two-headed long-tailed rats’ vengeful nature.

The rest of the team also seemed aware.
They weren’t angry that the team leader hadn’t intervened in time; they simply cleaned up the battlefield in silence.
Among the injured, some hadn’t been able to cut away the infected flesh in time, allowing the festering toxin to spread.
Now, they could only amputate arms or legs.
Е̊.n̈um̈.ã . і̆ d̆
Those with wounds on their torsos had no choice but to wait for death.
The people traveling with them didn’t prolong their suffering.
They quickly ended their misery with a weapon... The convoy had suffered heavy losses, and the mood was somber.
After packing up, they continued on their way.

Those who survived in the wasteland were accustomed to death, so the grief for the fallen was brief.
The heaviness in their hearts was more about their own survival, hoping they wouldn’t meet the same fate.

As for Ye Sheng, who had joined the journey midway, she wasn’t used to such harsh realities.
But she didn’t voice any naive objections. Instead, she silently resolved to adapt to the brutal ways of the wasteland world.
The convoy continued to move forward.
As they walked, Ye Sheng suddenly turned her head to glance behind her.
The path had become smoother from the tread of many feet, and the surrounding polluted vegetation grew thick and wild.
The bodies of those who had died were piled together, gradually left behind by the group, now only faint shadows in the distance.

The polluted creatures, emboldened by the retreating crowd, emerged from nowhere and pounced on the lifeless corpses, ready to feast.
Even though she couldn’t see it clearly, Ye Sheng knew it was a scene of desperation, brutal and tragic.
Her mind filled in the grim details, and her expression grew complicated as she let out a soft sigh.
In the pre-apocalyptic world, when people died, they would at least be cremated or given some form of burial.
But for the wastelanders, such rituals were cumbersome and impractical.
Especially for the low-level wastelanders, who couldn’t afford a burial plot in the safe zones.
Ènum а . і̌ ḋ
They had no choice but to leave their dead in the wilderness, where polluted creatures would steal the corpses to fill their stomachs... As for cremation, it was even more troublesome, and few had the patience for such rituals.
That’s why, when Ye Sheng first arrived, she had spent all her "family wealth" to recover her parents' remains, it was a rare act in this world.

But still, she felt it was the right thing to do.
She was living in place of the original owner, who had been sensitive and timid, and it was only fitting that she took care of her parents' final arrangements.
Ye Sheng turned her gaze away from the distant shadows and silently reached for Gu Luoyu’s hand, holding it tightly.
Suddenly, she murmured, "I’m glad you’re strong."
Е ṅ ûm̊ а̄
Strong enough to protect yourself.
The wastelanders were accustomed to life and death partings, but Ye Sheng felt she would never grow used to it.
Her seemingly random remark made Gu Luoyu tilt her head slightly, not fully understanding Ye Sheng’s emotions or worries... In the wasteland world, the weak were prey, and weakness led to death.
Even if she hadn’t been a psychic, she would never have allowed herself to be weak.

……
After the attack by the two-headed long-tailed rats, everyone in the convoy remained on high alert.
W е̌bnöv̀ē l̊ Е n ü mā
Facing the constant threat of another ambush, Ye Sheng didn’t refuse Gu Luoyu’s help this time.
She allowed herself to be carried on Gu Luoyu’s back, her arms wrapped around Gu Luoyu’s slender neck, her chin resting on her shoulder.
Every now and then, she would playfully tousle Gu Luoyu’s soft pink hair, feeling utterly at ease.
Despite Gu Luoyu’s tall and slender frame, she carried Ye Sheng with surprising steadiness.
It looked effortless, and it gave Ye Sheng an overwhelming sense of security.
Without Ye Sheng, a self-proclaimed "weakling", slowing her down, Gu Luoyu moved swiftly, soon overtaking the others and reaching the front of the group.

As Ye Sheng caught sight of the three "hot" figures ahead, she quickly lowered her head, pretending to be invisible.
It’s not that Ye Sheng wanted to act affectionate at this moment, but Gu Luoyu had informed her earlier that the team leader possessed a sheepskin map officially issued by the base.
It marked the general terrain of the valley, making navigation easier.
Due to the radiation from the toxic fog, the wilderness terrain could shift unpredictably, meaning there was no fixed map available.
Areas close to the safe zone could still be viewed on the electronic map provided by the Super Intelligent Network watch, but this wasn’t possible for remote regions.
Typically, the maps provided by the Super Intelligent Network were based on real-time surveys conducted by individuals.

After completing a survey, they could upload the data to the official website and receive rewards.
However, those who ventured deep into the wilderness weren’t desperate for such small rewards.

They sought greater value and profit.
Besides helping their families by drawing temporary topographic maps, they often sold the maps privately for a hefty price.
For instance, when the convoy entered the valley this time, many likely used the Super Intelligence Network to record the terrain, planning to sell the data upon returning to the base.
However, an oversupply would inevitably drive prices down.
Ẃ е́b̃ n̄ò v̄е l Е̌n ũ m̄ ā
Ye Sheng pondered this silently, then glanced at the Super Intelligence Network device on her wrist.
As someone perpetually short on funds, she wasn’t about to pass up an opportunity to earn points!
Even a small amount was better than nothing, and she planned to sell the map data once back in the safe zone.
She wouldn’t need to go through the hassle of finding a buyer; she could sell it directly to Merlin.

Ahem, her thoughts had wandered a bit too far. Ye Sheng quickly snapped back to reality from her money-making fantasies... For now, only the team leader had a topographic map, and perhaps the Esper squad did as well.
Gu Luoyu moved to the front of the line, intending to take a quick look at the map.

That way, even if something unexpected happened, they’d be prepared.
Ye Sheng naturally didn’t object and was even eager to help memorize the map.
However, as she lay on Gu Luoyu’s back and peered at the densely packed map in the leader’s hands, her head began to spin.
It was nothing like the simple topographic map she had imagined!!
Her enthusiasm quickly turned to defeat.

Fortunately, Gu Luoyu was incredibly capable, with an almost absurdly good memory.
Perhaps wastelanders had a special knack for reading maps, but she managed to memorize it after just a glance, ensuring they wouldn’t get lost later.
Of course, relying solely on a map wasn’t foolproof.
The terrain could change at any moment, so they’d have to stay vigilant.
As they hurried forward, the convoy didn’t encounter any counterattacks from the two-headed long-tailed rats, which brought a collective sigh of relief.
The path began to level out, and they successfully reached the mountain’s summit.

Ahead, the terrain flattened out.
They had reached the heart of the valley!

Cheers erupted from the convoy, and their pace quickened as everyone rushed to reach their destination... The flat terrain of the valley also meant less polluted vegetation, making it easier to defend against potential ambushes by the two-headed long-tailed rats.
Their goal was clear: to find Dark Jade Lotus at the Pond!
As the group hurried forward, Ye Sheng, comfortably carried on Gu Luoyu’s back, had little to do but look around curiously.
The polluted plants in the depths of the wilderness were bizarre and unnameable, their strange appearances sparking a sense of wonder.
Web̊ nо̌ v е̃ l̆ Еń u m̈ ȧ
For example, amidst the green blades of grass, there were peculiar little purple flowers that uprooted themselves and began chasing people......
At first, Ye Sheng thought she was mistaken.
After all, similar flowers were everywhere, and these small purple ones were easy to overlook... But when she saw them uprooting themselves with her own eyes, she was utterly stunned.
"Gu Luoyu, Gu Luoyu, look! Those flowers are chasing us again."

After silently observing for a while, Ye Sheng couldn’t hold back any longer.
She tapped Gu Luoyu’s shoulder, her voice tinged with both surprise and excitement, urging her friend to take a look.
Е́nu ṁ а̂ . iď
Forgive her for being a country bumpkin, but she had never seen such strange flowers before!
However, when Gu Luoyu turned to look, her brows immediately furrowed.
Her expression grew serious, and her body tensed as she shifted into a defensive stance.
