Deadly Game: Almighty Boss’s Guide to Making Money

Chapter 1374. The Same Copy (11)

After dinner, Lin Xi looked at the exchange page, specified the medicine for the person who wanted it, and then lay down on the bed.

She needs to go to bed early.

I'll try to get up early tomorrow, eat breakfast early, and then leave early.

We need to keep opening supply crates to prepare for the next disaster.

She's forgotten what the next disaster is, and even if she remembered it, it probably wouldn't matter; she might have changed it anyway!

In any case, finding more protective equipment is always the right thing to do.

The next day, when Lin Xi woke up, there wasn't much talking in the live stream.

I guess they waited until midnight, when the massive hailstorm ended, before going to sleep.

—123, you woke up really early!
—Last night was peaceful. A few people were injured, but Teacher Huang saved them all.

—I don't know if the cars are still drivable. Many cars have been smashed and deformed.

Lin Xi quickly went to check the electronic map.

There are quite a few scrapped vehicles shown on the electronic map.

Lin Xi stopped cooking, summoned bread and milk, and ate while talking in the group chat.

Mu Xiaobei: I saw some vehicles that were totaled.

Guo Xinxin: I saw that too. In a moment, I'll use teleportation to gather everyone together, and then use the transportation card to summon a car.

Gu Bei: If you're really too busy, you can send out the vehicle upgrade cards I have.

Old Li: The scrapped vehicle probably can't be upgraded, it can only be used with a transportation card.

Gu Bei: Xin Xin, Lao Huang said you should come and take care of him, it might not be safe for him to be alone!

Guo Xinxin: Okay.

Maple Leaf: Xiaolin probably fell asleep in the early hours of the morning, so she's probably not awake yet.

Lin Ranran: What can I do?

Mu Xiaobei: Let's set off early and find more supplies.

Guo Xinxin: I'll just use my transit card to summon the largest car. I don't know if other cars will be scrapped in the future disaster.

Mu Xiaobei: If you can choose the color of your car, choose the same color as the ground. If you can make it quiet, that's best.

Guo Xinxin: Okay.

While chatting in the group, Lin Xi finished her breakfast, went to the driver's seat, and prepared to set off.

It was already daylight, although the sun hadn't risen yet.

She guessed that once Huang Jingjing woke up, she would go with Guo Yuelang to look for the person whose vehicle had been scrapped, according to the map.

There's a supply depot up ahead; I wonder who I'll run into this time.

Lin Xi hopes to meet the people in their group soon so that they can use the Anywhere Door together to go to other zones.

Before encountering everyone, we should still try our best to ensure that the other players in this zone have more resources and better conditions.

In front of the supply depot, Lin Xi found three supply boxes.

There was poisonous gas in a supply box, but Linxi had protective clothing and wasn't afraid.

Inside are four vehicle color-changing cards.

When upgrading a vehicle, you cannot choose the color; it's all random.

Lin Xi immediately assigned the four cards to Guo Yuelang.

Guo Yuelang is probably busy and doesn't have time to deal with her right now.

The other two supply boxes contain supplies.

One of them contained the blueprints for a universal tent, one for level one and one for level two, as well as a key.

The other one contains medicine to ward off wild animals; there's a lot of it.

Lin Xi didn't put them into her space; she directly clicked "list" and designated them all to Guo Yuelang.

Lin Xi used all three boxes to achieve her wish.

The supply depot is just a dozen kilometers ahead.

Just then, a cold, electronic voice sounded.

"On the fourth day of your journey, the treasure chest requires a key to open. Please purchase the key at the supply station."

Previously, they would pry it open with a crowbar, but Lin Xi had never used one before; she would always smash it open directly with a plastic hammer.

She didn't plan to use it anymore. She specifically messaged Guo Yuelang, asking him to distribute the copied key as he pleased, as she didn't want any.

She wanted to use a plastic hammer.

—This lousy game is just trying to scam players out of their money again.

—Isn't the money the players gave us the tips? In the end, it's still money we're being scammed out of.

—123 is really lucky; they actually managed to unlock the key.

—Even 123 is useless. At the beginning, there was a small crowbar in the passenger seat, probably for prying open supply boxes, but she never used it.

—Yes, she used a plastic hammer from the beginning.

Lin Xi arrived at the supply station.

She encountered Zhang An on both of her previous visits to the supply depot.

I just don't know if Zhang An is in the same division as her this time.

She also saw two cars on the electronic map, but neither of them was as fast as her car.

This time, the supply depot doesn't seem to be categorized; it's just labeled "Supply Depot."

The courtyard is very large. Although the houses are all single-story, they are well-built and stand in a long row.

It seems that these crappy games are getting more and more interested in making money off their players!

Lin Xi parked her car and decided to walk from the east side of where she parked to the west side.

Lin Xi originally thought that since the dungeon didn't provide food and water, the supply depot wouldn't have any either.

As a result, the first house contained all kinds of food.

From raw to cooked to convenience foods, from staple foods to vegetables to fruits to all kinds of seasonings, everything is available.

It's really expensive!
A 500ml bottle of purified water costs 50 gold coins. A 60g box of instant noodles costs 50 gold coins.

Fruits, such as apples and oranges, are sold individually; a small apple can cost over sixty gold coins.

Small grapes are sold by weight, with prices reaching three figures and sometimes four figures per pound.

Very good. It seems the people on the other side of this broken game are trying to make one last quick buck.

After all, once people actually die, viewers might not be as genuinely emotional about giving rewards.

For her sister's sake, and for the fact that they might give a portion of their earnings to the Academy of Sciences to create a more perfect virtual community, Lin Xi... of course, spending money was out of the question.

She would keep her complaints to herself and not say them out loud.

However, the audience didn't take the criticism to heart.

——Fuck!

—I was wondering why they weren't providing any food; so that's what they were waiting for!
But most players have food stored in the dungeon.

—They're bullying the newbies, but there aren't any newbies.

—And the tips from newcomers aren't that much, which is understandable.

—Then I'll have to pay for my own food and water; I can't let myself starve or die of thirst.

—We can buy a little less and resupply at the next supply depot.

Lin Xi scoffed at the expensive food filling the room and went to the second room.

The second room contains various fragments, which aren't expensive, costing one gold coin per fragment. However, upgrading requires a lot of them.

There are also timber, stones, bricks, and tiles, which cost twenty gold coins each or a piece.

If you want to build a house, you also need a lot.

The third room, we have the key now.

One thousand gold coins per bundle.

—The golden key?

—No, no, gold is much more expensive than this; it costs more than a thousand yuan per gram.

But it is an iron key!
—But with this, there's no need to pry it open with a crowbar.

—Those with plastic hammers are, after all, a minority.

—Well, it's not that we don't need to use a crowbar anymore, it's that we have to use a key to open it, because the crowbar won't work.

Besides the keys, there were also various cards.

Vehicle upgrade cards, vehicle merging cards, vehicle color-changing cards, transportation cards, etc., the prices... well, they're quite reasonable.
