Chapter 63: The Sky Is Going to Rain, and the Nuns Are Going to Get Married
He was shocked. He quickly looked at the chatbox and found that it was full of such information.
“Hahaha… congratulations on becoming a hundred-yuan household.”
“Are we going to use copper coins to trade in the future?”
“I think so.”
“Definitely.”
“I wonder how much these 100 copper coins are worth. Can we buy a catty of streaky pork?”
“You’re too pessimistic. How can it be so tragic? I think we can at least buy a catty of pigs to cook.”
“…”
“I think this is a good thing. In the past, when we bartered in the trading area, there was too much water. Some people made a lot of money because of this, and some people lost all their money.”
“Do you see the black-hearted merchants? If they dare to raise prices and disrupt the market in the future, it will be difficult for the public to calm down.”
“That’s right, your path has come to an end. When the new season comes, everyone will go to the shopping mall and use the new currency to shop.”
“…”
Looking at the countless messages flas.h.i.+ng past, Mcgee could not help but frown.
His intuition told him that this upgrade and maintenance was going to change the entire market and situation!
Suddenly, a loud rumble came from outside.
It was a thunder explosion!
Then, thunder and lightning flashed.
At some point in the day, dark clouds suddenly gathered and the world was dark.
After a while, a storm poured down and strong winds blew.
How could he go out in such bad weather?
Mcgee stood in front of the window on the second floor and watched for a while. In the end, he shook his head.
No matter how heavy the rain was, it had nothing to do with him.
After working hard for so many days, it was time for him to have a good rest and have a good sleep.
As for the farmlands in the pigpen outside, they had been destroyed by the Crypt Weavers, so he did not need to worry about it.
“Ah…” Mcgee threw himself onto the soft bed and stretched himself comfortably. Soon, he fell asleep.
The Little Spirit Fox was also in the room, sleeping comfortably on a piece of sheepskin.
However, its vigilance was extremely high. Even if it was asleep, as long as it heard a strange sound, it would wake up immediately.
The other tamed beasts and Omori were resting on the first floor.
A sizzling fire was burning in the furnace, constantly providing heat.
The wind and rain outside were fierce, and the room was as warm as spring.
…
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Mcgee, who had been woken up by the urge to pee, suddenly sat up on the bed. However, he received a notification from the system.
Opening it, he saw that there were already countless messages in his private inbox.
At the top of the list was Sister Irene.
“Mcgee, something big has happened. Please help me, please help me.”
It could be seen that Irene was very anxious.
But Mcgee subconsciously frowned.
What was this nun trying to do again?
To be honest, he did not really want to pay attention to this woman.
But out of courtesy, he still asked indifferently.
“What’s wrong with So now? Now all the monsters have yellow names, and it’s still raining so hard outside, what can happen?”
As soon as the message was sent, he immediately received a reply.
“Big boss Mcgee, you finally replied to me… I beg you, please help me.
“If you don’t help us, many people will die.”
She was guilt-tripping him.
This was going against him.
Mcgee’s face instantly darkened. This woman did not know what was good for her. If she had something to say, she would say it. Why was she guilt-tripping him?
“You mean, if someone dies, it’s because of me?” Mcgee asked back.
“No, big brother, you misunderstood… something really happened to me. Please help us.”
Irene was almost begging, but she did not tell him what had happened.
No one would agree to it so easily.
It was really infuriating.
“What exactly happened? Explain it clearly first.”
Although Mcgee was angry, his heart softened in the end.
He had to figure out what happened first. As for whether he would help or not, that would depend on his mood.
“It’s like this…” Irene did not dare to make any more requests and started talking.
After hearing it, Mcgee was so angry that he wanted to slap this woman.
It turned out —
After the system announced that all monsters were to be upgraded and maintained, all monsters had yellow names.
Irene immediately realized that this was a G.o.dsend opportunity. All of the players could safely leave their homes and go to the wilderness.
So, she called in the system chatbox and prepared to hold an offline meeting.
Players who wanted to join her utopia would partic.i.p.ate in the meeting. They would discuss how to create an ideal country where everyone was equal. There would be no oppression, no leaders.h.i.+p, and no burden.
In the end, everyone responded.
Of course, very few of them actually believed in the utopian concept. Most of them mainly did not have the ability to protect themselves and wanted to rely on a utopia to survive this crisis smoothly.
Therefore, countless people left their homes with hope and headed to the agreed meeting place.
However, G.o.d’s plan did not work.
Most of the people who were preparing to go had not even walked halfway. Some people had not even left their homes when a storm hit them.
However, a few people came to the open-air event venue early and were drenched.
Fortunately, a large natural cave nearby could provide them with temporary shelter from the rain.
At first, everyone did not pay much attention to it. They lit bonfires in the cave, sang and danced, and imagined the establishment of a utopia together.
However, as time pa.s.sed… everyone’s expressions gradually changed.
Because a few hours later, it was still stormy outside and even caused a flood.
A large amount of rain poured into the cave, slowly turning the cave into a pool of water.
Until now, more than 200 people were soaking in the pool of water that was close to their chest.
If they did not try to save them, these hundreds of people would probably drown inside.
Even if they did not drown, they would freeze to death or starve to death.
As the organizer of this event, Sister Irene was undoubtedly the culprit.
As the ugly human nature of the people was gradually exposed, the situation quickly went out of control.
The consequences would have been unimaginable if it were not for Irene’s ident.i.ty as a missionary who had a slave contract and could force people into a master-slave relations.h.i.+p.
But even so, her situation was still very bad, but she was thinking about how to save people…
After figuring it out, Mcgee did not know what to say. He wanted to curse this woman for being a pig head and extremely stupid.
“Then what do you want me to do? I’m not that capable.”
Mcgee took a deep breath and quickly calmed his anger. But, he continued, “To be honest, if these people die, it has nothing to do with me. It’s all your fault.”
“I know, I know… no matter what the result is, I’m already grateful that you’re willing to help.”
Irene also knew that it was her fault, which made her feel even more guilty.
She even felt that even if those people had done terrible things to her, they were worthy of being saved by G.o.d.
Therefore, now that she saw even a glimmer of hope to make up for it, she would do her best to try.
“I… I don’t know how to save them either.”
Irene was silent for a moment. “But I believe that you must have your own So way. So I’m begging you.”
“…”
F*ck, what the h.e.l.l was going on?
Was this woman toying with him, or did she think that he was being blackmailed?
Forget it, this woman’s mind was full of water right now. It was a waste of time to argue with her.
Mcgee’s mind spun rapidly.
Soon, he replied.
“I do have a way, but there is no guarantee that it will work.
“If you insist on trying, agree to my conditions.
“No matter what the result is, you have to get married!”
Irene was silent for a few seconds after receiving the private message.
She did not understand why the other party made such a weird request?
Did he not know that as a nun, she had made a vow before joining the church to serve G.o.d for the rest of his life.
