Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy! - Chapter 107

Chapter 107: Catching a Chicken
The trees loomed above, their branches winding and twisted likes grasping fingers, giving off an eerie feeling.

A thick carpet of leaves strewed on the dirt part along with the white feathers muffled the sound of her footsteps as Nanzhi made her way deeper into the misty woods.

The air is thick with scent of decaying leaves and damp earth.

She couldn’t identify the plants and trees she encountered.

These are the details she never observed when she was playing.

She spent twenty four minutes walking and used another two torches, before she was able to find she was looking for.

Behind the dense thickets and bushes on her right, the sound of wings rustling and clucking entered her ears.

She quietly crouched down and parted the branches and leaves as quietly as possible.

A foot a half tall white Cornish chicken breed with a stocky build was in the middle of pecking worms.

There you are.

Nanzhi didn’t attack it and circled around to do something first.

After ten minutes, the white chicken heard a sound from behind and instantly leaped.

Nanzhi’s hands only caught air.

(AN: MC can’t use telekinesis inside Daily Dungeon but she can used it in Weekly Dungeon.)

The white chicken was startled by the presence of Nanzhi and when it noticed Nanzhi moved, it started flapping its wings and jumping around like a frog.

Nanzhi chased it but the white chicken was very agile.

The chicken was very nervous at first thinking Nanzhi was a threat but after a while it becoming very arrogant.

Even stopping in the midst and flaunting its feather like a peacock as if it was making fun of Nanzhi, for failing to capture it. “Mac. Mac. Mac!” Stupid two legged creature!

However, to its bafflement, the two legged creature didn’t get angry or annoyed and only stand and smiled.

It suddenly had a bad premonition.

It turned around to run only to end up in a hole covered by dried yellow leaves.

An ominous voice came from above the hole before it saw a grinning face, covered by the shadows.

“Guess I’ll have fried chicken tonight.”

The chicken’s pompous attitude disappeared and cooed weakly.

After a few minutes in the [SAFE ZONE].

Nanzhi glanced at the white chicken while setting aside the torches.

[Hen]

Once the chicken is brought inside the [SAFE ZONE], it will no longer be able to get out and will become Nanzhi’s property.

She was not entirely sure if they about their taste but her game character’s hunger is always satiated by one fried chicken leg.

“Mac. Mac. Mac!” The white chicken trembled in the corner. It buried its head inside its wings seemingly afraid of Nanzhi.

“You better behave or I will turn you into a fried chicken just like I said before.”

“Well, if you can give lay eggs and hatch chicks in the future, I won’t cook you.” Nanzhi looked at the land inside the safe zone.

She was certain there was an abandoned thatched cottage somewhere near.

There are tools inside which can help her make chicken coop.

Tomorrow, she’ll find a rooster.

In the safe zone, she can used items from outside.

The chicken was startled when it saw corn kernels appeared out of nowhere. It cautiously tasted and when it found the kernels delicious, it quickly devoured the other kernels.

Nanzhi looked at the time left at the Daily Dungeon.

[2 hours: 10 minutes: 53 seconds]

She used the remaining torches to venture out again and didn’t manage to find another chicken and the cottage.

Instead, she discovered a small field of cattails and some dried stalk of grass.

She made a temporary coop from dried stalk of grass and separated the stalks cattails, leaving them to dry.

When the timer is off, she left the Daily Dungeon.

…..

The stab wound on Yu Baoyin’s stomach had already scabbed.

“The wound is healing well. Remember not to let it dry or peel off before it’s completely healed.” Nanzhi applied a layer of petroleum jelly and antibiotic cream to keep it moist and promote healing before changing the bandage.

“Thank you Sister Nan!” Yu Baoyin also inspected the wound.

Her skin was white and fair, especially at her abdomen area making the scab wound was very conspicuous and terrifying to look at.

Her ex-boyfriend’s face came to her mind. Yu Baoyin’s mood turned sour.

She wondered how that two timing bastard is faring in the toilet.

Anyway, to take advantage of the light, Nanzhi, Lin Weihao, Yu Baoyin, and Feng Ran planned to check the surroundings for other alien beasts and supplies.

But before that, Yu Baoyin was taught a quick lesson on how to handle and fire a gun.

“Sister Nan! I’m pretty satisfied with my machete! I’m afraid that if you give me a gun, I might accidentally shoot any of you instead!” Yu Baoyin shook her head. She knows the limit of her skills and shooting definitely isn’t her forte.

“Machete is good for close combat but what if your opponent has a gun? What’s faster, a gun or a machete?”

Yu Baoyin was still filled with hesitation.

Nanzhi perceived it.

“I’m not asking you to be proficient in guns. I just wanted you to have a lifesaving trump card.” Nanzhi explained before giving a handgun to the reluctant Baoyin. The gun had also saved her life multiple times in the past.

“Okay.” Yu Baoyin understood that Sister Nanzhi was only looking out for her. She finally relented and accepted the gun.

It was her first time to touch a gun. It was heavier than it looked.

She had only seen guns from her father’s bodyguards but never saw them in action until Boss Chu cause chaos in the Tourist Hotel and when Sister Nan fend off the fish monster.

They made the unit 2104 a temporary firing range.

The most qualified teacher around was Lin Weihao.

But his lessons were too advanced for a simple Baoyin.

Additionally, his strict gaze without the rose tinted filter was too scary for Yu Baoyin to concentrate.

It’s like she was back in her college days taking a high pressure examination.

After explaining the purpose of the safety mechanism, the barrel, the trigger, how to load the bullets into the magazine, and how to change the magazine, he stepped out.

Yu Baoyin was relieved and opted for the second best, her Sister Nan.

Nanzhi hesitated at first because she only got the skills from the system.

She wasn’t considered a true expert.

Her true knowledge of the gun was shallower than Feng Ran.

So instead of explaining, Nanzhi demonstrated instead.

Like a memory deeply engraved in her muscles. Her body went into a perfect firing stance.

“Hold the gun with your dominant hand and steady it with your free hand…”
