Chapter 13: A Well Performed Play

Lan Ke reluctantly put down the knife in her hand, but in her mind she recalled the words of Ruthless Swordsman.

"Although this knife is slender, its blood trough is deep and long. The handle can be grasped with both hands. It is suitable for chopping and stabbing. It is a veritable weapon."

"After you take it back, drop your blood on the blade to recognize you as its master. After the recognition, there will be a connection between the knife and you. Even if you are a novice, it will become easy to use, such as prompting it with your arm. The knife's weight will be adjusted according to your strength, which could be convenient for you to use."

"I don't know what's happening on your but this knife needs to be used with caution. Don't do anything arbitrarily and hurt yourself."

Thinking of this, Lan Ke couldn't help sighing: "This Ruthless Swordsman has a good heart."

Anyway, she had written down this favor.

Now that she has a weapon in hand, she has the confidence to protect herself in the next global mutation. However, necessary preparations must be done.

It wasn't easy to be born again. With so many supplies, she doesn't want to overturn the boat in the gutter.

Pursing her lips, Lan Ke immediately pierced her finger and squeezed out blood drops onto the knife. She doesn't know what material the whole knife was made of. At first glance, it looked like metal, but had the texture of jade. The blade is as black as ink, with a faint flow of light, forming a peculiar scale like pattern.

The scarlet blood was absorbed by the knife in the blink of an eye. The knife trembled slightly in the next moment, and at the same time, Lan Ke realized that there was a strange connection between herself and the knife.

At this moment, Babao's angry roar suddenly came: "Ouch ouch ouch. Damn you, get off from my head!"

Lan Ke turned her head and saw that Babao was flying around furiously and on top of his head, there was a small bean sprout standing innocently against the wind.

Lan Ke shook her head and was not surprised. She picked up the black scale knife and began to draw it. Although it was her first time using it, it's really easy to use after it has recognized her as its master, as if it had been used by her countless times.

Lan Ke had used various weapons in her previous life, such as guns, knives, axes, spears and hammers. The conditions in the apocalypse was very hard. Foolish people are not qualified to choose weapons at all and they often find anything they want to use as weapons.

However, Lan Ke used knives the most. She's good at cooking and is most familiar with knives. Although she had a very hard life in the early stage, but later, when her conditions gradually improved, she asked someone to make her a knife to defend herself.

Speaking of which, the style of that knife is somewhat similar to this black scale knife, so when she was looking for a weapon, she fell in love with this black scale knife at a glance.

After practicing for a while, Lan Ke gradually recovered the feeling from her previous life and became more proficient using the knife in her hand. This black scale knife is really not a common product and it is much better than the one that she spent a lot of money to make in her previous life!

Although she spent all her savings to buy this knife, Lan Ke understands that Ruthless Swordsman was already very kind to her. The trading points she gave him were not even a fraction of this black scale knife!

This favor must be returned as soon as possible!

Suddenly, a green light flashed and Douya jumped onto the back of Lan Ke's hand. It's two bean sprout leaves held her fingers pitifully: "Hungry! Hungry! Rich master! So hungry!"

Lan Ke glanced at it silently and fished out a small basin of prawns from the pond, then placed it on the ground: "Eat it."

One day outside, one month in the pond, so these days, two batches of freshwater fish in the pond have been harvested, all of which have been made into various cooked foods by Lan Ke and stored in her inventory space, which could be eaten at any time.

However, Douya was a larvae of the heaven devouring vine after all and Lan Ke wants to make it her future combat partner, not just a cute pet. Therefore, its food could be said to be carefully selected. She sometimes gave it some fruits and cooked food or she also let it eat some raw meat as she was afraid that it would forget its ferocious nature.

Douya was not a picky eater and could eat whatever food she gave, which makes Lan Ke feel quite satisfied.

The prawns that just came out of the water are very fresh and their translucent chubby bodies move around inside the basin, which looks particularly attractive. As soon as Douya saw what its food was, it immediately turned into a green light and jumped into the basin.

The prawns in the basin were taken aback and they tried to get rid of the uninvited guest Douya, but when they rushed up, they were entangled by the roots that suddenly sprouted from Douya.

Douya was still too small now and eating mainly depends on its roots. Usually its roots are small, but once eating, it will produce countless slender fibrous roots that will entangle its food.

Those fibrous roots are thinner than hair and look extremely fragile, but the prawns cannot move after being entangled, those fibrous roots are very scary.

There are not many prawns in the small basin, only 10 in total. This is also the limitation of the system. The maximum quantity of each kind of freshwater animal is 10 and those who wanted more could only wait for the next batch to mature.

After Lan Ke gave Douya its food, she left Douya alone and continued to prepare food. She was already familiar with the black scale knife and every time she spent some time practicing, there wasn't much time left since preparing cooked food is her priority.

The sky outside is always dark and would inevitably cause panic after watching it for a long time. As for Lan Ke, she felt fine since she had been through it for a long time. However, the others were miserable.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Lan Ke's door was knocked again.

The one-bedroom room is not big, the entrance and the kitchen are separated from each other. Thus, Lan Ke heard it as soon as the security door was knocked.

"Open the door please! Help me! Please!" These words were accompanied by the "bang bang bang" slamming on the door. A young female voice kept crying for help, "Open the door, I'm only 15 years old and still in junior high school. I beg you!"

She walked to the door, but didn't open it. She just opened a peephole to observe the situation outside.

The lights were on in the corridor and a girl in a light-colored down jacket was crying and smashing the door. The girl was very beautiful, her clothes are a bit shriveled, her tied ponytail was messy and there was a pink slap mark on her face. It was obvious that she had encountered something and was bullied.

At this moment, arrogant curses came from the corridor below.

"Go faster, that chick is up there!"

"Yes, yes, let's catch her quickly!"

"That chick looks pretty good and was still a junior high school student. We can have a good time with her later."

"Hahahaha, her little waist is so thin!"

The following words are getting more and more obscene and unpleasant to hear.

The girl heard it too. She was frightened and then trembled: "They are catching up! Please help me! I'm still a junior high school student!"

The girl's face was very young and it will only take a look to know that she's not that old. If she falls into the hands of those people below, her fate can be imagined.

At this time, it is estimated that even the most hard-hearted person should open the door to save her.

Unfortunately…

Lan Ke looked at the girl outside the door with a sneer, a 15-year-old junior high school girl who didn't stay at home well, but unexpectedly ran out in such a chaotic time? Not only did she escape from several hooligans, but no one came to arrest them after she asked for help for so long?

The play was performed well, but unfortunately, she saw a lot of these similar tricks in the apocalypse!

Lan Ke was about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, the opposite door opened.
