Chapter 68: Do You Want It?

As soon as these words came out, Xiu Wu and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at them, Zhu Lin could see their worries in their faces.

Sensing their concern for her, she smiled and said, "I’m considering telling the commander that humans can eat mutant beasts and plants. It’s just that some parts of them are poisonous. If you are not careful, you may die if you eat them. In the worst case, people will die due to too much devil energy in their bodies and become zombies."

Hearing what she said, Tan Wei suddenly said, "Perhaps, people who died of poisoning after eating the meat of the mutant beast in the past is because they ate the poisonous part."

Xiu Wu, who is busy cooking snake meat, calmly said, "Maybe. If they can determine which parts are edible and which parts are poisonous, this information will bring great hope to mankind."

After saying this, Zhu Lin said, "Actually, other parts of the mutant beast can also be used. For example, this one."

She took out the giant snake skin and snake gall from the ice flower pendant, and said, "The giant snake’s skin can be used to refine armor, and the snake gall can be used to refine pills."

Her words seemed to open up a new world for Xiu Wu, Ji Yang, and Tan Wei, and their eyes lit up when they looked at Zhu Lin. Meeting their hot gazes, she scratched her cheeks awkwardly and asked, "Why are you guys looking at me like that?"

Xiu Wu came to the dining table with a plate of fried meat, sat down beside Zhu Lin, and asked, "Xiao Lin, do you know why no one dares to hunt mutant beasts and mutant plants?"

Zhu Lin tilted her head slightly and said, "I don’t know."

Tan Wei swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "That’s because only five percent of the remaining survivors have awakened abilities. Without abilities, those ordinary people can’t hunt mutant beasts and mutant plants, or they would be courting death. In addition, after the mutation, guns and other weapons do little to no harm to the mutant beasts and mutant plants."

Ji Yang nodded and said, "Not only that. Even supernatural beings have a very low success rate against mutant beasts and mutant plants. To kill mutant beasts of the same rank, a team needs at least three to five people working together. In the end, when someone encounters a mutant beast or a mutant plant, they will choose to run or hide."

"What you just told us is very valuable information. If we can really use the body parts of mutant beasts to make weapons and armor, even ordinary people will be able to kill mutant beasts in the future." Xiu Wu added after a moment of silence.

After listening to their explanation, Zhu Lin realized the value of this information. Seeing her lost in thought, Xiu Wu said, "Let’s eat first. We can talk about this later."

After speaking, the four of them and TuTu quickly finished their meal. After eating, Ji Yang and Tan Wei took the initiative to wash the dishes, while Zhu Lin and Xiu Wu went back to the living room.

Zhu Lin sat on the carpeted floor and took out the body part of the giant snake from the ice flower pendant. She put the snake’s skin, fangs, and horns on the ground, then looked at Xiu Wu and asked, "Do you want these? I can give them to you, since I don’t need them."

Xiu Wu looked at the giant snake’s skin and said, "This skin can be used to make several sets of armor. But before that, we need to find someone who can make armor first."

Before the end of the world, they lived in a society where private ownership of weapons was prohibited. After living in such a society for hundreds of years, there are not many masters who could forge weapons and armor.

Zhu Lin looked at Xiu Wu’s frowning face, thought for a while, and took out a thousand-year-old ice silk cloth from the ice flower pendant. The moment she took the cloth out, the living room temperature dropped several degrees.

Xiu Wu came out of his contemplation, looked at Zhu Lin and curiously asked, "What kind of fabric is that?"

Zhu Lin spread the ice silk cloth on the ground and said, "This is an ordinary ice silk cloth, made of thousand-year-old ice silk."

When Xiu Wu heard her answer, he was immediately speechless and thought: ’Thousand-year-old ice silk... The name alone is very impressive, but she said it was just an ordinary fabric. I wonder where Xiao Lin came from.’

While Zhu Lin was busy making a cloak out of ice silk cloth, Ji Yang and Tan Wei came out of the kitchen. Feeling that the temperature was colder than before, they looked curiously at the fabric in Zhu Lin’s hand.

Noticing their gaze, she just smiled slightly. Tan Wei sat on the carpeted floor, touched the hem of the ice silk cloth and asked, "Xiao Lin, do you have more of this fabric?"

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Yes. I still have a lot. Do you want it?"

Hearing her question, Tan Wei’s eyes lit up, and he nodded quickly while saying, "Yes. I won’t accept it for free. Didn’t you say that you need a lot of crystal nucleus? Xiao Lin, you can just tell me how much this cloth is, and I will pay with crystal nucleus according to your price."

Zhu Lin thought for a while and said, "Mhm, just give me some crystal nucleus as payment. How much fabric do you need?"

Tan Wei scratched his head, then looked at Ji Yang and Xiu Wu. They noticed him looking at them and shrugged at the same time. The two of them have never touched a needle in their lives, so it is useless for Tan Wei to seek answers from them.
