After closing her attribute panel, Lu Yuelan immediately turned to collect the rewards from the monsters she had killed.
【System Notification: Congratulations to player Lu Yuelan for killing six low-level Knight-class wolf-dog monsters. Obtained Tier-3 Wolf Club ×1, Wolf Hide ×18, Wolf Teeth ×58, Recreational Flying Disc ×2, One edible piglet, Rabies Vaccine ×2.】
【System Notification: Congratulations to player Lu Yuelan for killing a high-level Knight-class wolf-dog monster. Obtained Wolf Hide ×3, Wolf Teeth ×8, Rabies Vaccine ×1, Growth-capable Item ×1, Breath Soil ×3.】
Good, very good, indeed, when luck swings to extremes, good items just keep appearing one after another.
Seeing these valuable items, Lu Yuelan suddenly remembered that she hadn’t yet contacted “Officially Certified by the State” about exchanging important information. She decided to send them a message.
At that moment, system warning alerts rang out continuously.
【Alert! Alert! Warning: Player Lu Yuelan’s stamina is insufficient. Please rest immediately and recover energy.】
Only then did Lu Yuelan remember that her stamina had been as low as 3 earlier. She was so startled that she almost wanted to eat a piece of chocolate to restore stamina. But reason quickly kicked in, she recalled Professor Meng’s earlier reminder that it had side effects, so she gave up on the idea, immediately went to sleep, and completely forgot about someone waiting for her.
Meanwhile, Ming Tianying, who had been anxiously waiting for Lu Yuelan…
He was wondering whether he had been stood up, or whether the little girl simply felt he wasn’t suitable and didn’t want to trade with him. With a melancholic “male-god” pose, he looked up at the sky, only to then receive a phone-like message that made his expression turn serious.
【Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars: Big brother, help me! Someone is trying to kill me and steal my goods.】
Ming Tianying was so frightened that he immediately activated the stockpiled location card, locked onto the position of “Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars,” and directly teleported there to help the little boy escape danger.
In just one night, Ming Tianying and the little boy Lu Yingling suffered more than ten ambushes. It forced Ming Tianying to call in several special forces soldiers before they were able to help Lu Yingling survive this deadly crisis.
When Lu Yuelan woke up from her sleep, she hadn’t even had time to sigh over the fact that her driving distance had increased by another five kilometers, nor reflect on the fact that over ten thousand players had died yesterday due to insufficient basic mission progress. She immediately learned about the intense battle that had occurred on the “Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars” side the previous night, and she felt a deep sense of lingering fear.
That was close. She had casually mentioned the “Officially Certified by the State” account, which had indirectly pushed the boy to seek help from official forces. Otherwise, he would have already left this world last night.
At the same time, Lu Yuelan also felt frustrated. The previous night, she had been too excited about her powerful weapons and equipment and ended up fighting half the night without stopping, completely forgetting to deal with the boy’s situation.
She truly didn’t expect those villains to be so impatient, they couldn’t even wait a single night before attacking the child. He was just a little kid, yet they were truly heartless monsters in human skin.
【Please Take Your Seat, Princess: @Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars, sorry, little guy. I forgot about you yesterday. I should have told you earlier that the “Officially Certified by the State” person is quite reliable, and asked you to contact them.】
Lu Yuelan had heard that the little boy only went to seek help from “Officially Certified by the State” when he truly could no longer hold on.
She didn’t know whether her earlier message telling him to “wait” had contributed to that delay. If it had, her guilt deepened even further.
Next time, she told herself, she must be more careful and not act so carelessly.
After waiting for a while and not receiving any reply, Lu Yuelan assumed that the boy had been too badly hurt last night. The sense of guilt weighed heavily on her. She took out the first aid kit she had placed in the back seat, found items like bruise treatment medicine, anti-inflammatory powder, hemostatic bandages, and alcohol, and sent them to the boy.
【Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars: @Please Take Your Seat, Princess, sorry, sister. I was busy taking care of the soldier big brothers who came to help just now and didn’t notice the message.】
【Please Take Your Seat, Princess: That’s right. Taking care of the injured is more important. Sister just sent you some medicine, please accept it.】
【Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars: Sister, these things are too precious. Please take them back. Baby can’t take such a big advantage from you.】
【Please Take Your Seat, Princess: What happened last night was also partly my responsibility. If I hadn’t told you to wait and had you contact “Officially Certified by the State” earlier to receive official protection, you wouldn’t have encountered something so dangerous and intense.】
Early in the morning, Lu Yuelan had also seen discussions in the regional channel about the official statement from “Officially Certified by the State,” which announced that “Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars” had been taken under official protection. This deterred those with ill intentions from continuing their ambushes.
Only then did she truly realize just how dangerous the boy’s situation had been last night.
Combining everything that had happened earlier, she felt an overwhelming sense of guilt.
【Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars: Big sister, you’re thinking too much. If it weren’t for your reminder telling Baby to go hug the “Father State’s thigh,” Baby would have already been killed by those bad guys. Speaking of which, I should be the one thanking you. You should just keep these medicines.】
【System Notification: Player “Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars” has returned the medicine you gifted. Please retrieve it in time. It will be destroyed after expiration.】
【Please Take Your Seat, Princess: You child, there were such intense battles last night, there must have been many injured people. Even if you don’t want it, you can’t refuse on behalf of those people. Just take it.】
After saying that, Lu Yuelan sent the medicine back to “Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars” again. Perhaps her words had been taken to heart this time.
This time, the boy did not return the medicine again. Instead, he sent Lu Yuelan some talismans.
【System Notification: Player “Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars” has gifted you 18 Temperature Stabilization Talismans and 22 Purified Water Talismans.】
【Earth is Too Dangerous, I Want to Go Back to Mars message: Sorry, the battle was too intense last night. I completely used up all my Thunder Talismans. In the end, I even had to draw Thunder Talismans on the spot, so I couldn’t immediately send powerful attack talismans to big sister. When I have time later, I’ll definitely make up for it and send them to you first thing. Those medicines are very useful for injured people on our side. Baby was mistaken earlier, so I’ll accept them without being polite.】
Lu Yuelan smiled as she read the little “grown-up’s” message. The child was too adorable. She hoped the national authorities would take good care of him.
She directly accepted the talismans. For the boy, these were things he had personally crafted; refusing them would only make him feel uneasy. However, she still sent him a reply, telling him not to rush in making Thunder Talismans and to rest properly, she had good weapons on her side and wasn’t lacking combat strength.
The two of them conversed quite happily. If it were adults, they might have worried about whether the exchange was unfair, but for the child and Lu Yuelan, the idea was simple: if my things are useful to you, that’s enough.
There were no deeper theories, being human is simply about mutual exchange in order to maintain long-term relationships.
Because “Officially Certified by the State” had helped the boy through an all-night battle last night, they were likely busy at the moment. Lu Yuelan did not follow her original plan of contacting them today to exchange important information. Instead, she prepared to complete her “childcare instructor” work for the day and secure the guaranteed resource coins.
If the national side had time later, she would contact them again.
