Apocalypse: I have a supermarket stocked with supplies-Chapter 263: Goldfish Base’s Talent
Chapter 263: Goldfish Base’s Talent
Goldfish Base was brimming with talent.
One outstripped the other in zeal.
By day, they killed zombies; by night, they killed zombies; they mined Crystal Cores, mined Crystal Cores.
Each one more industrious than the last.
Except for the Base Boss, who was a salted fish, the rest were Kings of Competition.
They outcompeted like crazy.
The speed at which they accumulated Crystal Cores was terrifyingly impressive; Su Yinhe was scared just looking at it.
Now they were madly gathering Crystal Cores to exchange for supplies, and once they got the supplies, they’d carry them into the caves.
They worked like a swarm of ants, busy and organized.
The Boss watched with great satisfaction.
The cave was piled high with supplies; his life of reclining blissfully was delightful.
He could continue to lounge around in the future.
“Why are the people in your base so hardworking, and you can’t even bother to roll over?” Lin Murong couldn’t stand his approach at all.
“What do you know, a salted fish is still a salted fish even after it turns over. Let them work hard. I’ll keep laying flat.” The Boss lay there unmoving, refusing to get up.
He wouldn’t get up.
Everyone in the Base was so diligent; not a single one wanted to slack off.
So he’d reluctantly help them slack off a bit.
After all, someone’s got to slack off, right?
“At least you could roll over once in a while,” Lin Murong tried to persuade him.
The Boss finally deigned to give him a glance, glanced at Lin Murong, then nodded perfunctorily, and rolled over.
“Happy now?”
Lin Murong: “???”
Lin Murong was convinced.
“Alright, alright, you can turn over,” Lin Murong gave him a thumbs-up.
“Thank you for the compliment. I’ll take it.” The Boss was also quite satisfied and nodded.
Lin Murong: “…”
Damn shameless.
The Boss of Goldfish Base was determined to waste away as a salted fish, but everyone else was still working hard, living and dying by their competitiveness.
Lin Murong found this interesting and joined them.
And then…
He simply couldn’t compete with them.
He failed.
In the contest of competition, they were yet another level above him.
“It’s too much, just too much, seriously too competitive,” Lin Murong lay on the ground, his eyes vacant, like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.
He finally understood, that’s why the Boss turned into a salted fish because he couldn’t compete.
And then the inferiority complex.
“Bro, I get it now. You’re right; it’s good to be a salted fish, it’s wonderful. Keep being a salted fish. I didn’t understand before, but now I do.”
Lin Murong patted the Boss’s shoulder as he spoke.
Now the two of them lay side by side.
“See? It’s not that I’m not trying, but they are just way too competitive. I had wanted to compete too, but well… you know the rest.” The Salted Fish Boss was quite melancholic.
Really, it wasn’t that he didn’t try.
Didn’t he ever want to make an effort?
No, of course, he did.
He’d even tried.
And then he was devastated by defeat.
So he continued to lay there as a salted fish and found it very enjoyable.
And so, he just lay there.
Too joyful.
Making you not want to get up.
He lost even the motivation to rise.
Su Yinhe discovered, somehow, that the supermarket now had an additional salted fish that had lost its dreams.
There was already one before, and now another one had joined.
It was quite speechless.
“Galaxy, being a salted fish is really blissful. You could give it a try too,” Lin Murong invited her to lay down together.
Su Yinhe waved her hand in refusal.
“No, no, you give it a try.” It’s not like she hadn’t been a “salted fish” before.
“Galaxy, you really won’t join us? I saved a spot for you.” Lin Murong made room for her.
Su Yinhe’s mouth twitched, “Have you forgotten whose floor you’re lying on?” This is her supermarket, hers. Did she really need him to save her a spot?
“Uh… forgot, my bad.” Lin Murong swiftly flipped over.
This chapter is updat𝓮d by freēnovelkiss.com.
And then flipped back again.
He then lifted his head and gave a flattering smile, “I’ll roll around as an apology to you.”
Su Yinhe: “…”
There’s a curse word she didn’t know whether or not to say.
“Please forgive me. What do I have to do for you to forgive me?” Lin Murong became a drama king and started acting.
Su Yinhe: “Roll, roll, roll.”
Too cringey to watch, really too cringey.
“Look at you, our feelings must’ve faded, now you’re even telling me to roll. I already rolled, but you’re still telling me to roll, did you not even look just now? I see, you don’t love me anymore, right?” Lin Murong half-lying on the ground, one hand propping him up, the other covering his mouth, looking pitiful and helpless.
But Su Yinhe was really irritated.
She wanted to slap him dead now.
“Look at you, what’s with that look? Are you thinking of slapping me? You actually want to slap me. I’m so heartbroken.”
Lin Murong began to whine.
The scene was so shocking that even the Salted Fish Boss was stunned. The Salted Fish Boss had never encountered such a spectacle; he had thought Lin Murong was a decent fellow.
Who knew he was so indecent.
The Salted Fish Boss, who rarely moved positions, now extraordinarily shuffled away from Lin Murong.
He was very careful when he moved, yet Lin Murong still noticed.
Lin Murong with a “you’re betraying the organization” expression, “What are you doing? Didn’t you say you don’t like to move, that you’re a salted fish? What are you doing now? Why are you moving? Huh?!”
Boss: “…”
Silence was the Cambridge of tonight.
Lin Murong, going crazy online.
He seemed mentally unstable.
Su Yinhe felt like she couldn’t communicate with him, so she temporarily ran away.
Su Yinhe left, leaving Lin Murong and the Salted Fish Boss at the scene.
Lin Murong could only turn his gaze to the Salted Fish Boss.
Salted Fish Boss: “…”
Shivering in fear.
Don’t leave him alone.
He was scared.
Amidst the immense fear, the boss who was originally a salted fish suddenly surged with boundless energy, got up, and ran away swiftly.
Lin Murong: “???”
What happened to the salted fish?
Damn.
Running so fast.
Was he worried about being eaten by him?
What a joke, was he that kind of person?
Can’t there be a little trust between people?
Lin Murong rolled on the ground, feeling that there was no trust between people.
Su Yinhe, who had run away, went to check out how the people from Goldfish Base were killing zombies.
The way they killed zombies now was practically an assembly line.
One group went to attract the attention of the zombies, another to kill, and a third to dig out the brains.
The division of labor was clear.
The main thing was to be fast, accurate, and ruthless.
“Your people are good,” Su Yinhe complimented.
The Salted Fish Boss had just run out following Su Yinhe.
Hearing this, he chuckled, “Indeed, they are quite impressive.” He could peacefully be a salted fish, all thanks to the talents at the base.
Without these talents, he wouldn’t have been able to lay down as calmly; he would have been dead while doing it.
“You should also be ambitious. Lead your base’s people to, well… be ambitious,” Su Yinhe couldn’t think of the right words for a moment.
“Ambitious? Ambitious for what? I don’t have many aspirations, to be satisfied and alive is enough. They also don’t have any, they might be competitive, but they just want to live well. It would be great if the apocalypse ended one day.” The Salted Fish Boss sounded melancholic.
