End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

When Lu Zhu opened her eyes, she was holding the basin filled with honeycomb honey in her hand.

Zhizhi and Xuanguang smelled the scent and raised their heads. Lu Zhu had cut the honey for them in the first place, so she generously shared the honey with them.

There is actually not much in a basin, especially for Xuan Guang. They can eat sweet food but not too much. It is just a snack for them.

When Lu Zhu was distributing the honey, he also ate some himself. He had to say that the honey made by the alienated bees was indeed more flavorful and tasted better than the honey made by ordinary bees.

Maybe it was because it was the first time they ate something sweet, Xuanguang and Zhizhi loved it so much that they licked the bottom of the rice bowl.

Xuan Guang was still unsatisfied and tried to rub Lu Zhu, wanting more of that sweet thing.

Zhizhi licked his paws gracefully, savoring the taste of honey.

"Stop it, you can't eat too much~" Lu Zhu pushed Xuan Guang away feeling a little itchy and laughed at it for being a foodie.

Just as Lu Zhu and Xuan Guang were playing, a voice interrupted their interaction.

Opposite their temporary residence, someone slowly approached them.

Xuan Guang narrowed his eyes in vigilance, Zhizhi protected Lu Zhu, and his fur stood up.

Lu Zhu calmly looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a man with his hands folded, pushing away the leaves in front of him and revealing his face.

It turned out to be him~ What a coincidence!

"Hello, can you lend me a light?" He saw the fire from a distance. He didn't know when he lost his magnesium rod. Fortunately, he saw the fire here, otherwise he would have a hard time tonight.

Xuanguang and Zhizhi had darker fur, so they were not very clear at night. He didn't notice them as he was walking from a distance.

Before he actually showed his face, Lu Zhu quickly put Xuan Guang and Zhi Zhi into the space and stood next to the fire.

She wasn't worried about being seen by that person, she just instinctively didn't want to cause trouble.

If he really saw it, there are plenty of ways to make him shut up in Oasis.

Seeing him approaching, Lu Zhu did not stop him. Only when he got closer did Lu Zhu see his full appearance clearly.

The voice belonged to a young man, in his early twenties, very thin, with long hair and a sparse beard.

The clothes on his body were very torn, but he had protective gear on his wrists and ankles, and some iron plates were exposed.

He looked like a homeless person on the street. Lu Zhu was sure that he was not the one who came with them.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask you for some fire." The man looked at Lu Zhu's puzzled eyes and couldn't help but explain.

He was a little afraid to look directly at the girl in front of him. Although her clothes were old, she looked very neat and her face was clean and beautiful.

But he didn't dare to have any other thoughts. His life experience over such a long time told him that some people cannot be judged by their appearance.

And there was a person lying behind her. He was not so ignorant and ungrateful. Staying alive was more important.

Lu Zhu didn't make things difficult for him, after all, she had snatched his honey in the afternoon. Judging from his appearance, he had been hungry for a long time and was no match for her.

"Sure, come here and warm yourself by the fire first!" Lu Zhu smiled and invited him to sit down and warm himself by the fire.

The young man was flattered and stood awkwardly not far away, not daring to get too close.

"It's okay, come and sit down! I want to ask you something too." Lu Zhu's eyes were calm, which could make people let down their guard unconsciously. Moreover, she was a girl who didn't look threatening, which made people feel even less wary.

He finally compromised and lingered over the fire to absorb the warmth.

"My name is Lu Zhu, what's your name?" Lu Zhu asked, looking at the dancing flames.

"My name is Zhao Huatong, you can also call me Huazai." The man leaned closer to the fire again.

"Judging from your appearance, you have been in this oasis for some time. When did you come in?" Lu Zhu asked him casually, adding some more firewood to the fire.

"It's been almost half a month. This damn place is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. Now I'm the only one left," Zhao Huatong said angrily, with some fear in his tone.

He watched with his own eyes as the people who came with him died one by one.

Those alienated plants, alienated animals, or those previously harmless insects, seemed harmless at first, but they harvested lives the moment people let down their guard.

If it weren't for the wrist guards and knee guards, he would have lost his arms and legs long ago, and the consequence of losing arms and legs is only death.

"Are you here to look for the crystal core as well?" Zhao Huatong looked up at Lu Zhu and asked.

"Well! That's what they said, but I don't think so. They deliberately made the noise to attract the mutated plants, and then they ran away," Lu Zhu stated simply.

"It's all the same. I think we are just bait, helping them to lure away the alienated animals and plants so that they can do their thing... Bah! Didn't we die in the end?" Zhao Huatong said with gritted teeth and spat again, as if he was relieved all of a sudden.

"I don't know what happened to them. I was busy escaping, so I ran here by myself," Lu Zhu said half-truthfully.

"Then you are quite lucky..." Before Zhao Huatong could finish his words, a gurgling sound interrupted him.

Zhao Huatong covered his stomach with his hands, blushing. "Gurgle, gur ...

Zhao Huatong stood up hurriedly, tightened the belt around his waist, and smiled awkwardly at Lu Zhu.

"I'm sorry! I haven't gotten anything to eat for two days. I could have gotten some honey today, but the tree disappeared for some reason. It's really like seeing a ghost." Zhao Huatong muttered to himself and sat down again.

Lu Zhu also laughed awkwardly ~ Could she say that she destroyed the tree?

"Is that man injured? It's hard to find medicine here~" Zhao Huatong had already seen the man lying on the side. They talked for a long time, but he didn't move at all, and there was no snoring. Combined with what Lu Zhu said just now, he guessed that he was injured.

It can only be said that Zhao Huatong has a smart mind, but he only guessed half of it. He was indeed injured, but it was because of Lu Zhu that the injury was exacerbated.

Lu Zhu cleared his throat uncomfortably and nodded guiltily.

The two men in front of her seemed to be suffering because of her.

Oh! What a sin, what a sin!

"Where do you live? Is it far from here?" Lu Zhu asked, changing the subject.

"Not far, just over there~" Zhao Huatong pointed in the direction he came from, "It's only a few hundred meters away from here, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the fire here"

"Oh~" Lu Zhu responded with an "oh".

When Zhao Huatong turned around, he saw Lu Zhu pulling out a few sweet potatoes from under the fire, which gave off a somewhat sweet aroma.

Zhao Huatong's eyes widened as he stared at the sweet potatoes being dug out of the fire. He smelled the aroma of sweet potatoes in the air and his saliva kept flowing.

Suddenly I could only hear the sound of swallowing saliva.
