Apocalypse: System of lotteries

Chapter 287 What Are You Running?

?

Zone 1521.

Late at night, acid rain drizzled down.

Ming took a bite of the bird meat. It was a bit charred, but the taste was still acceptable.

"Eh?"

He found the taste of this bird strangely similar to the ones Alan often brought.

Could it be... well, it's not strange for birds that look alike to exist in this world.

After finishing his meal, Ming walked around in his room, starting to habitually think about things. After all, his current mental state was incredibly high, at 1400+. He was constantly thinking. Of course, serious people think about serious matters.

Those who aren't serious surely think about other things.

He, however, was a serious person.

This was certain.

"Right~"

Ming let the porcupine out. It had told Da Vinci that its quills could regenerate, and they wouldn't regenerate if it stayed in the puppet space.

This was also to restore its confidence. Otherwise, it would feel inferior when it saw its kind in the future.

However, creatures like the porcupine, categorized as a BOSS-level mutant, still had their flaws. After being bridged and turned into a puppet, they might be very obedient to you.

But once the bridging was canceled, no matter how well you treated them before, they would still attack you. This was characteristic of a BOSS. At present, no way had been found to change this.

This also led to some puppeteers without puppet spaces having to kill their old puppets in order to collect new ones when they were short of puppet slots.

Creatures like the little bear, a five-star animal, as long as they establish trust with humans, will no longer have any hostility. Moreover, they will protect you at all costs.

"You're such a good bear~"

Ming raised his right hand, rubbed the sleeping little bear's head at his feet, leaned back, and laid his head on his left hand, which was balled into a fist and wrapped in gauze.

Time to sleep.

Chapter Three.

Day 21.

In the early morning, the rain stopped.

After washing up, ming drove to the central area to face today's shared BOSS.

Before leaving, he rubbed each member of his family one by one, hoping to share some of their luck. Today, no matter what, he had to take down a BOSS.

"This is breakfast, don't waste it~"

Ming tossed out various kinds of food and then turned to leave. Inside the car, Jenna was in the passenger seat, Annie was in the back seat, and Raoul, whose upper body broke through the car roof, was also there.

The car was not moving quickly, as he was thinking about how to remodel Raoul into a tank that can attract and take hits while driving.

After all, its "Lion King's Majesty" could make it immune to the negative skills and effects of its targets. This was a talent for attracting attention and taking hits.

Amazing~

[Your frogs think that the morning light after the rain is the most comfortable. Foodie push breakfast to the door and started to leisurely taste their respective gourmet food~]

[In front of Da Vinci was a peanut butter-coated fat white bug, Merlin had snake venom mixed with violet petals in clear soup, Foodie drooled over a large pink cake, the little bear was holding a bucket of fried fish~ Sol was looking at the caterpillar in front of him, very conflicted~]

Heh!

Upon arrival, Ming got out of the car and gave Jenna and Annie a look.

"Hehe~"

"Hehe~"

Annie and Jenna started chanting and dancing.

Ming leaned against the car door, took out a coconut, poked a hole in it, inserted a straw, and enjoyed the performance in front of him.

During the time in the tent when he was asking for money from three thousand zombies, they had the longest time to get used to them. Just a look was enough for them to understand what he wanted.

He checked the system time: 08:50:45.

"The timing is just right."

"Hey, it will be your turn to perform soon."

Ming looked at Raoul. He did not plan to take action for today's shared BOSS.

A two-star Emperor Level, if it couldn't crush a five-star King Level, then Raoul would have to give up all its talents and skills and become a bull that only knows how to plow the fields.

To raise one's status in the family, one must at least make some impressive contributions or demonstrate certain abilities.

In fact, Ming really wanted to remodel Raoul, but he didn't want to do it based on his imagination. Instead, he wanted Raoul to reveal his weaknesses in real combat. The more weaknesses exposed, the better, so he could remodel it accordingly.

Most importantly, Raoul always gave him a strange feeling, he didn't understand exactly what it was. Today, if there was a chance, he could also verify it.

09:00

A white beam of light fell to the ground.

"Just one?"

Ming frowned. The shared event that occurred every three days usually started with several dozens or hundreds of five-star lords, followed by a five-star king.

Why was there only one beam of light today? 

At this moment, the beam of light dissipated, revealing a figure that was slightly shorter compared to Raoul.

This five-star king was wearing a gray and green tracksuit, a pair of sports shoes, and a thin monkey-like face with a pair of small purple eyes.

The moment it saw Ming, it turned and ran!

"Holy cow!"

Ming, leaning against the car door, was immediately stunned. What was happening?

A five-star king saw him and ran away... had he become so intimidating?

Then, the figure of the five-star king gradually moved away... disappearing into the ruins.

Bang!

Ming delivered an uppercut to Raoul's waist, "Chase it, what are you waiting for?"

"Hehe~"

Raoul turned around and started running towards the disappearing figure.

"Let's get in the car~"

Ming waved to Jenna and Annie, quickly opened the car door, got in, and buckled his seat belt.

He had been so stunned just now that he hadn't had time to use his eagle eye to check the BOSS's attributes. Now, he couldn't even see the BOSS's figure.

It must be said, the five-star king was really fast.

But why was it running?

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

Ming stepped on the gas, violently turned the steering wheel, and drove onto the road, closely following Raoul.

While driving, Ming simply ran over the debris on the road without avoiding it. He would need a new car sooner or later anyway, so there was no point in being overly careful. Of course, he should drive as fast as he can.

"This guy! He runs pretty fast!"

If his left hand still retained the agility attribute from when he punched Raoul, he too could chase like Raoul, running on foot. But now, with the spiritual attribute in his left hand, he could only drive fast. Besides, driving a bomb car didn't cost fuel, which was quite cool. Chase~

"Raoul! Come on~ Today is the moment to examine your mettle, don't lose face~"

Ming shouted through the car window.

He also saw the back of that BOSS, and it must be said, it was really fast!

Just as he wanted to examine its attributes with his eagle eye, it suddenly made a right turn into a side street. Raoul followed closely, perfectly blocking the view.

Swoosh!

Ming drove to the corner and made a hard turn, executing a perfect drift, and continued to chase!

There was only one BOSS today, so it was certain to get the first kill. He couldn't miss this opportunity!

"Raoul, speed up, you have 10 minutes to catch up with that guy, otherwise, you'll be a plow ox~"

Ming shouted from the window.

He made a hard turn, drifting to the left again.

Sniff sniff~

What's that smell? Weird?

Ming turned his head to see Annie and Jenna had vomited, all black juice.

"..."

"My genuine leather seat!"

"Everyone shut up, hold it in!"

"Hold on!"

Ming shouted, drifting right at the same time. He had to admit he admired the five-star king, a true long-distance running champion, seemingly not tired at all.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

Full throttle, chase!

[Your froglings squat at the front door of the house, enjoying their own food. They see a guy with rat-like eyes running past them, stepping on puddles, and disappearing into the distance... foodie looks at his own cake that hasn't been eaten yet, covered in dirty muddy spots...]

[Your foodie tells Da Vinci, watch my cake, I'm going to kill that guy today! Foodie rushed out!]

[Da Vinci nodded in relief, luckily mine is okay... Splash~ Raoul's massive figure rushed past them, stepping on a puddle and causing ripples of muddy water...]

[Your Da Vinci shouted loudly, don't stop me, I'm going to teach Raoul a lesson~ Merlin looked at Da Vinci covered in mud spots, blinked, don't go~]

[Your Da Vinci fainted, frothing at the mouth~]

Ming rolled down the car window, looked outside, and slowly drove the car past, past the puddle, then stepped on the gas to speed up.

"..."

He shouted out of the window, "Raoul, do I need to remind you that you have wings? Why are you running blindly? Fly! Chase by flying!"

Flap!!

Raoul flapped his wings and flew high, once again increasing his speed, getting even closer to the five-star king.

"Foodie?"

Ming drove past Foodie who was running on the muddy road, "Foodie, you're too dirty, don't think about hitching a ride~ Remember to take a bath when you get home~ No sofa for you if you don't wash!"
