Chapter 385 The Adult's Alt Account
Lu Youyou didn't believe that the adults who brought everyone from Earth to the survival world were good people.
But on someone else's turf, she could only smile and nod, pretending to agree.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lu Youyou finally crossed the Heart Pool and arrived at the third room.
The layout is similar to the previous room, with a central aisle dividing the room in two.
However, there is no heart here; instead, it is filled with incubators.
Between the two incubators, there is a narrow path through which one person or one robot can pass.
Each incubator contains more or less eggs.
Click.
A faint sound came from the incubator directly opposite Lu Youyou. A tiny beak pecked open the eggshell and then suddenly pushed upwards.
A sparsely feathered duckling, its eggshell aloft, gazes at Lu Youyou across the incubator.
"This is the 99832nd duck that adults have tried to study using gene sequencing. It is already infinitely close to the ducks of Earth."
"Why are adults studying ducks?"
"In order to enrich resources."
Lu Youyou said "Oh," and then asked, "What about the ducks that we failed to research before?"
"The clever ones will find an opportunity to give them to humans as pets, the stupid ones will be used to breed ducks, and the inherently evil ones will be given territory and treated as monsters that hate humans."
The robot was much more open than the adults, not hiding anything at all, and answering every question.
She and the robot looked through many rooms, and in summary, the adults were raising people, monsters, pets, and plants.
Moreover, the adults are researching plants and animals that share the same genes as those on Earth.
Lu Youyou asked the robot what its purpose was, but the robot said it didn't have the authority to know; it was just a tour guide robot introducing supplies.
However, Lu Youyou had a guess: the adults wanted to turn the survival world into the next Earth.
Of course, this is purely personal speculation and has not been confirmed by either the robot or any adult.
But Lu Youyou knew that the adults wanted her to have this kind of conjecture.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have given me a lab teleportation card, nor would they have arranged a tour guide to explain things to me.
He wanted to change his opinion of him.
But why?
My thoughts were in turmoil, but it was time to visit the laboratory.
After the robot reminded her, she returned to her car the next second.
It felt like everything that had just happened was a dream I had during my lunch break.
But Lu Youyou knew it wasn't a dream.
She sighed, expelling the negative thoughts from her mind, and regained her energy.
At the very least, you have to survive until the end to see what the survival world will become.
She also wanted to know what kind of instance she would have management authority in if she passed the test.
If she were to become a dungeon boss and encounter a new group of survivors, she would definitely bare her teeth and deliberately scare them.
Thinking of this, Lu Youyou felt that her boring life had a glimmer of hope.
For no apparent reason, Lu Youyou suddenly thought of Gu Jingchen.
The man who fed insects with his own body.
She had completely forgotten about him, but suddenly a sentence he said popped into her mind.
"Don't come to save me. My life is like a stagnant pool. There is no meaning in living."
At the time, I just thought it was weird that he had the life to live but didn't.
Now——
She also experienced a boring life, but still thought he was a weirdo.
Life is boring, so be it. If you're feeling down for a few days, find something to vent your frustrations and keep going.
Well, she's also someone who says one thing and does another.
When the environment is tough, people worry about survival; when the environment is good, they complain about being bored.
But if anything were to threaten her life, she would still have to try her best to live.
In the laboratory, the screen was filled with Lu Youyou's words of advice to herself.
The adult sent a screenshot of the records about Gu Jingchen to Gu Jingchen, who was guarding the empty dense forest instance.
Then he burst into laughter, almost lifting the roof off.
On a branch of an old tree in the dense forest, Gu Jingchen was playing with the crow chicks in the nest, vying for insects.
The crow parents were so angry they trembled, but what could they do when Gu Jingchen was the boss of the dungeon? They dared not speak out.
My child, be patient!
hum~
The watch, which hadn't vibrated for eight hundred years, suddenly made a sound, leaving Gu Jingchen somewhat dazed.
When he clicked on it, he saw that it was a screenshot sent to him by an adult using a secondary account, which was full of bizarre comments about himself.
Just as he was about to reply, he saw a new message from the adult.
[Big Guy's comment: This is what Youyou is really thinking. So much time has passed, and you've even given away the Heart of the Withered Vine, yet people still think you're weird.]
[The Ever-Changing Withered Vine: Oh, so what happened?]
[Big Person: So pitiful~]
[Ever-Changing Vine: Please, that's loyalty, not love. What she thinks of me is none of my business.]
[Big Guy: You dare talk to me like that? I'll corrode you in some medicine.]
[Ever-Changing Vine: I'm the first person to pledge my loyalty to her for the entire instance. You won't kill me, and you can't kill me.]
[Big Brother: You deserve to die! As a human from Earth, what's wrong with your head? I've never told you any secrets.]
[The Ever-Changing Vine: Its intelligence is simply something it was born with.]
After confronting the adult, Gu Jingchen looked at the screenshot and inexplicably laughed, then changed the screenshot to his watch screen background.
It's really hard on her; even so long after her death, she can still remember his exact words.

Inside the RV.
Lu Youyou's watch vibrated continuously.
The screen continuously displays notifications about changes in favorability.
[The Ever-Changing Vine's favorability towards you has decreased by 1%, currently at 54%.]
[The Ever-Changing Vine's favorability towards you has increased by 2%, currently standing at 56%.]
[The Ever-Changing Vine's favorability towards you has decreased...]
When Lu Youyou received the first notification of a decrease in favorability, she was still trying to recall what she had done to annoy the NPC.
Upon receiving the second message about the increase in favorability, she breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed that the NPC had comforted himself.
However, after receiving more than ten notifications about changes in favorability, she suspected that the favorability assessment function was broken.
Finally, the watch stopped vibrating.
The favorability rating is set at 60%, which is 5% higher than the initial 55%.
She did nothing, and had never even seen the Ever-Changing Vine, so how did she manage to cause the Ever-Changing Vine such a fuss?
Lu Youyou had a question, so she decided to ask it in the public chat.
[Lu Youyou: Has anyone encountered a situation where the favorability rating fluctuates repeatedly within a short period of time?]
[Red Candle: I've experienced this before. When I wanted to confess my feelings to the dungeon boss without any pain, his affection level dropped to -20% in just ten seconds, but it eventually returned to 0.]
[Big Guy: The favorability rating system is very sensitive now, it won't be bad.]
[A smile makes you ten years younger: The favorability rating fluctuated repeatedly in a short period of time? That's rare, but it shouldn't be bad. By the way, how can you be so sure? Did you make that judgment yourself?]
[Big Guy: Why are you speaking such blunt truths?]
[Indestructible Vajra: Hahahaha, that idiot upstairs actually took it as a compliment?]
【…】
The topic on the public chat gradually shifted to other things, and Lu Youyou still didn't know the reason for Bai Bian Ku Teng's emotional change, because no one had ever encountered the same situation.
Lu Youyou rolled her eyes at her watch.
The ever-changing withered vine is just an oddball; if she's emotionally unstable, she should just take some sleeping pills and sleep it off. Why bother with her mental state...?
Suddenly, Lu Youyou, with her sharp eyes, spotted a message among the rapidly scrolling messages.
[Player 1314888: Defeating the Mist Monster has a chance to drop Mist Cores.]
