Chapter 33: End, Selling
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He then checked his surroundings and confirmed that no other monsters had come, as well as that the woman had not dropped anything after her death. Then, he left this place.
After walking for a while, he found a shady spot and sat down to rest.
“The only ones who are still alive in this Survival mission are me and that foreigner with the dagger. If I encounter him again, one of us will have to die.”
Zhou Chen felt that the chance of death in this Survival mission was too high. No wonder so many people were reported missing in the news.
“No matter what, I have to do my best to survive.”
Even though he was exhausted, his determination did not waver at all.
After resting for a while, Zhou Chen set off again.
The rest of the journey was rather boring. He only encountered a small group of lizard monsters along the way. After killing all of them, they dropped a bottle of mineral water. Then, he continued walking silently after finishing the water. It took him nearly two hours to reach the destination.
The oasis at the end was very small. It looked like a withered forest that was only a few hectares wide. After Zhou Chen approached it, he did not directly enter but waited outside for a while.
He wanted to block that foreigner.
He hid in the shadows of a pile of sand outside the oasis for half an hour, but unfortunately, he did not see the foreigner at all.
“Could he have arrived before me? Or is he still far away? Or has he been torn apart by the monsters?”
Zhou Chen had no way of knowing the fate of the enemy. He chose to give up after half an hour. In any case, he had already killed the other foreigner, who was the main hostile target.
Zhou Chen walked out of the shadows of the sand pile and stepped into the forest oasis that did not seem to be very green. After a few seconds, he felt dazed and returned to his rented room.
[You have completed the mission. Reward: 1 Spirit Scroll (Low Bronze), 1 Desert Camouflage Suit (Low Bronze), 1 Machete (Low Bronze)]
The system immediately announced the mission rewards.
Zhou Chen, who was feeling exhausted, did not take out all the rewards from his inventory. He only took out the spirit scroll and tore it. Then, he took off his mask, washed up, and slept without eating anything.
When he woke up, he realized that it was already night outside. This time, he had slept for more than ten hours.
“So hungry.”
With his habit, he would have lay on the bed for a while more, but his rumbling stomach made him quickly get out of bed. He opened the fridge and ate bread and milk.
While eating, he opened his character interface to check:
[Name: Zhou Chen
Physique: 1.7
Agility: 1.6
Spirit: 1.8
Talent: Passive Plunderer
Passive Skills: Corpse Poison I, Snake Venom I, Agility Enhancement I, Spirit Enhancement I, Body Enhancement I, Giant Strength I, Combat Arts I, Spear Arts I, Low Light Vision I, Life Recovery I, Underwater Breathing I, Breath Holding I, Body Regeneration I
Comprehensive Evaluation: Low Bronze]
“My physique and spirit have increased a little. I obtained passive skills, Breath Holding and Body Regeneration. The gains are just so-so.”
Zhou Chen felt that although the Survival mission was a little difficult, the increase in his attributes on the interface was ordinary. He did not feel like his strength had increased rapidly like in the previous Survival missions.
“But I have gained much more items.”
He had obtained much more items than in the previous two Survival missions.
He opened the inventory space and began to sort them out.
“One spear, one hammer, one lighter, one dagger, one cactus cudgel, one claymore, one desert camouflage suit, one machete, and four mineral water bottles.”
All of these were obtained from the desert Survival mission.
“I can sell some things and pay the orphanage fee.”
Zhou Chen would definitely not be able to use all these things. He only needed a few core items.
While eating bread and drinking milk, he opened the system’s trading area to check.
“I’ll sell the cactus cudgel first. I’m not used to using clubs, let’s see what price is suitable.”
Zhou Chen looked at the prices of the various clubs in the trading area and realized that their prices were now between 30,000 and 40,000, slightly lower than the price he had seen when he browsed before.
He could think of the reason. Perhaps as the days passed, there were more and more powerful Survivors. They were throwing more and more weapons into the trading area.
But even so, the most ordinary weapons on this trading area still cost tens of thousands of Dragon Country bills.
This was because it was not easy for Survivors to obtain weapons. They could only rely on mission rewards or monster kills to obtain them. If they obtained them, they had to ensure that they could survive and place them in the trading area. Even if they placed them in the trading area, they had to survive until the day the item was sold.
A few days ago, when Zhou Chen was browsing the trading area, he had seen that a spear that was on sale had suddenly been taken off the shelves. The announcement from the system was that the seller of the spear had died, so all his items displayed in the trading area had been taken off the shelves.
“This cactus cudgel can be priced at 30,000, the hammer will be 50,000, the iron rod at 60,000, the dagger at 60,000, and the whip at 20,000.”
After some thought, Zhou Chen decided to sell the hammer, iron rod, dagger, and whip as well. He sold the hammer because the handle of that thing had many deep marks cut by the blade worms and was no longer of much use. He sold the iron rod because he had a spear and a claymore, he sold the dagger because he had a machete, and he sold the whip because he did not know how to use this thing.
“If all of them are sold, I will obtain 220,000 Dragon Country bills, enough to pay the fee.”
Zhou Chen placed the five items with their prices on the trading area.
“I wonder if the empty bottles have any use.”
Zhou Chen placed the weapons he did not use in the trading area and looked at the empty coke bottle and four mineral water bottles in his inventory. He guessed that these bottles might still be useful.
“Can I bring the bottles into Survival missions if I fill them with water?”
Zhou Chen thought to himself. Then, he opened the system forum and began to search for relevant information.
As he expected, someone had already done the relevant experiments and posted on the forum:
[After my tests, the containers produced by the system cannot be brought out of the original place(Planet Blue or dungeons) after they are filled with non-system items. They can only be used as materials or containers.]
“So it is not possible… If that’s the case, these things won’t be worth much.”
Zhou Chen frowned and took out a mineral water bottle from his inventory. He filled it with water from the tap and placed the bottle in his inventory.
About a second after he placed the bottle in his inventory, a stream of water suddenly appeared above his head and drenched him.
Feeling speechless, he took the mineral water bottle out of his inventory and found that the bottle with the lid still closed was empty.
