Apocalypse: I pick up trash in a survival game

Chapter 98 Transaction, High-level Meeting

The horror brought by extreme cold far exceeded people's imagination! Suning had just returned from the mysterious space, and as soon as he stepped into the dormitory, he immediately felt a chill coming towards him.

She could even clearly see the breath she exhaled condense into white mist in an instant.

Although the shelter has activated the heating system, the weak warmth can only make people feel a little bit of warmth, which is a drop in the bucket to resist such severe cold.

Most people still have to rely on their own efforts to resist the invasion of cold.

Without any hesitation, Suning quickly took out the constant temperature flower from his arms.

This magical flower bloomed with a soft and warm light, like a small sun, enveloping the entire dormitory. With the appearance of the constant temperature flower, the temperature in the dormitory gradually returned to normal levels, finally allowing Suning to breathe a sigh of relief.

She couldn't help but worry, "I wonder how other people who are in the severe cold can survive this terrible extreme cold."

Due to the sudden arrival of extreme cold, the shelter fell into a state of comprehensive rest and recuperation.

Most daily work was forced to stop, and people hid in their rooms and gathered together, seeking a moment of peace and warmth. Suning was wrapped tightly in a thick quilt, leaning on the bed.

She opened the communication channel, hoping to learn more about the situation outside.

Various information kept scrolling on the screen, and several of them caught her attention.

[This extreme cold is really terrifying. A fierce ice storm has blown outside our 11th area! Is there any kind-hearted person willing to exchange some cold-weather supplies with me? I can use the food I got from the dungeon as a condition for exchange.]

[Ahhh, I just collected food in the dungeon and knew that the extreme cold was coming, but I didn't expect it to be so terrible. The cold-proof supplies I collected before couldn't withstand such a cold air current. I'm almost frozen into a popsicle in the shelter.]

[Brothers, at least you are in the shelter. We who are not in the shelter are the real disaster! ]

[I have very little winter supplies at the national store on the system mall. How can I survive in this weather?]

Looking at this message for help, Suning frowned and felt heavy-hearted.

Faced with such a harsh environment, everyone is struggling to survive, and helping each other may be the only way for everyone to overcome the difficulties together.

Knowing that other shelters were also facing huge challenges brought by the extreme cold air, Suning couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

If someone could stand on a high place and overlook the entire blue planet, the scene before their eyes at this moment would surely be shocking!
The once colorful and vibrant planet is now completely covered by a thick layer of white snow, as if it had instantly traveled back to a distant and cold ice age.

Despite such harsh conditions, life must go on.

Suning looked at his scavenging backpack, which contained a considerable amount of bluestone ore. Suning knew that these cold-proof ores were extremely scarce and vital resources for each shelter.

Su Ning never had any unrealistic ideas like conquering the world, she just wanted to live a good life with the resources in her hands. So, she decided without hesitation to enter the system store with the new identity of "Su Kexin", and quickly found the official store representing the power of the country, ready to start a transaction.

……

At the same time, Song Ping'an was also anxiously dealing with a series of problems caused by the [extreme cold].

He frowned, worried. "It's so cold now. How can we survive the continuously decreasing temperature? If the shelter cannot enhance the ability to resist the cold, then the temperature will be even more horrifying. How can people survive in such a harsh environment!"

As one of the important persons in charge of the First Shelter, Song Pingan can obtain extremely accurate information. Not long ago, the mysterious player who predicted the coming of extreme cold once again issued a warning, saying that the temperature will continue to drop, and this disaster will be even more terrifying.

Faced with such a serious situation, leaders racked their brains and tried every possible means to find a feasible plan to ensure that all residents in the shelters and those who could not enter the shelters could safely survive this disaster.

Song Ping'an was so worried about this that his hair was almost falling out.

At this moment, a message suddenly came from the Daxia store he was in charge of. You know, this system store was carefully set up by him, and except for the stores he paid special attention to, it was impossible for others to send him any messages.

Out of strong curiosity, Song Pingan clicked on the message without hesitation, and was surprised to find that the merchant of the once popular [Doomsday Survival Department Store] unexpectedly sent him a message. The reason why Suning did not communicate with other people was because talking to them would reveal his information name.

Now that she possesses the power of the ghost bead [Ghost Covering Eyes], she can finally communicate with others.

Song Ping'an thought that there had been countless times when anyone, or anyone else, had tried to find out how the player known as the "Doomsday Survival Department Store" obtained those special supplies.

However, no matter how hard they tried, this person always isolated himself from the world, as if the outside world had nothing to do with him. All the messages sent to him were like being thrown into a bottomless abyss, with no response.

Who could have expected that today, this little shop that had always been full of mystery would actually take the initiative to pass on a message to him.

At the same time, he finally got a glimpse of the true identity of the player hidden behind this doomsday survival department store—Su Kexin.

Judging from the name alone, it seems that we can imagine that it should be a female, but this alone is not enough to determine who she is.

However, just the fact that he can control such a magical store must mean he is no ordinary person.

Song Ping'an was surprised, but when he actually read the message sent by Su Kexin, he stood there in a daze as if he had been struck by lightning.

I saw an item with special data in the message: "Blue ore, has extremely powerful cold and heat protection effects!"

Immediately afterwards, Suning solemnly released a transaction information, detailing the relevant situation of the blue stone mine it owned, and clearly stated that it could trade with the country.

Faced with such an amazing item, Song Pingan did not dare to be negligent and reported the matter to his superiors without hesitation. After all, this blue ore with extraordinary properties will undoubtedly have an impact on all shelters. If this transaction is not handled properly, the consequences may be disastrous.

……

The joint meeting of Daxia Shelters officially begins.

All shelter leaders came online to start the meeting.

All the shelters were excited to learn that they had something as good as a bluestone mine.

I thought that if blue stone ore could be used on the outer wall of the shelter, the threat of the terrible extreme cold would definitely be reduced a lot.

After hearing this, the head of the Ninth Shelter became excited and shouted, "Such precious ore should be handed over to the country. What does this player Su Kexin mean? At this moment, when the country is facing a huge crisis, shouldn't we contribute our strength without reservation? He actually wants to make a deal with the country. He has no sense of dedication at all."

After hearing this, representatives from other shelters expressed their agreement.

One of them echoed, "That's right. When the country is in danger, everyone should step forward without hesitation. I don't know which shelter this Su Kexin came from. She actually tried to gain benefits through transactions. It's really disappointing."

However, not everyone fully agrees with the views of the head of the Ninth Shelter. Some are cautious and hesitant; others feel that not everyone can become a saint with high moral standards, and it is obviously unrealistic to ask people to be selfless.

At this time, the representative of the First Shelter who came to attend the meeting happened to be Qin Fan.

After everyone had expressed their opinions, he did not agree with them. Instead, he said solemnly and seriously, "No one is born to give everything for others. The fact that this person can take the initiative to trade the blue stone mine in this crisis is enough to prove that she has extended a helping hand to this disaster. We must not let down the kindness of such a capable person as her, and we must not take her contribution for granted."

“Not only that, Qin Fan doesn’t want to make enemies with him. You have to know that the person who can produce such a large quantity of extremely rare minerals must be very powerful and should not be taken lightly. So you must not hand over such a rare and outstanding talent to others because of momentary selfish desires.” At this moment, all the responsible persons fell into silence.

The person in charge of the Ninth Shelter looked grim.

Liu Jianjun looked with disdain at the head of the Ninth Shelter who had just put on an ugly face and tried to make Su Kexin give everything without reservation. He said in his heart, "Humph, you are the most cunning and insidious. You keep asking others to make selfless contributions, then why don't you take the lead in taking out those precious things in your own shelter and give them to others?"

After muttering, Liu Jianjun felt envious again, "Oh, if this woman named Su Kexin is a resident of my shelter, how great it would be!"
