Survival in the Apocalypse: Max Level Drop Rate with Abundant Resources

"Survival of the Apocalypse: Max Level Drop Rate and Abundant Resources": Explosive word-of-mouth and rave reviews!

"accept."

The illusory figure nodded and stepped aside.

"Please come in, guest. As you are the first player to discover our store, the system rewards you with a 50% discount on your first purchase."

Shen Xi stepped into the store.

The shed looked dilapidated from the outside, but inside it was a hidden gem.

In the small space, countless light screens floated. On the light screens, product icons were densely arranged, each with a detailed description and price below it.

Shen Xi's gaze swept over the light screens...

[Equipment Section]

Bronze-level equipment: 100-500 gold coins

Silver-tier equipment: 1000-5000 gold coins

【Props Area】

Consumables: 10-100 gold coins

Functional items: 200-1000 gold coins

[Supplies Area]

Food: 1-10 gold coins

Drinking water: 1-5 gold coins

Medicine: 50-200 gold coins

[Skills Section]

Bronze-level skills: 300-800 gold coins

Silver-level skills: 2000-5000 gold coins

……

Shen Xi opened her panel and glanced at her gold coin balance.

Gold Coins: 11600

After the 50% discount, you can buy an item worth 23200 gold coins.

Not few, but not too many either.

After all, a single piece of silver-grade equipment can easily cost over a thousand, and silver-grade skills are even more expensive. If you want to buy good stuff, this amount of money is really not enough.

Shen Xi's gaze swept across those light screens.

Equipment? His Bone-Corroding Battle Axe, Storm Cloak, and Bone Nightmare Boots are all silver-grade, which is sufficient for now. Unless they have exceptionally rare special effects, there's no need to replace bronze-grade equipment.

Skills? He currently has Whirlwind Triple Slash, Bloodthirsty Charge, and Bloodthirsty Frenzy, providing both damage and control, so he doesn't lack any for now.

Items? Eye of the Watcher, Molotov cocktails, and rotting grenades are all good items, but they are more expensive in stores. The same items are more cost-effective when dropped outside.

Supplies? No need for that, his storage space was already overflowing with food and water.

Indecisiveness first appeared in Shen Xi.

"What should I buy...?"

Just as he was hesitating...

[Buzz...! ...

Golden light exploded in my consciousness!

[The Domination System has intervened!]

[Host detected entering the game store...]

[The hidden shopping channel in the Star Shop will be forcibly activated!]

Shen Xi's pupils suddenly contracted.

Hidden shopping lane?!

He had heard of it in his previous life!

That's a special privilege that only players who have made significant contributions to a city are eligible to activate. For example, helping the city defend against zombie hordes, killing lord-level rotting corpses inhabiting the city, or completing high-difficulty missions issued by the city…

The greater the contribution, the higher the privileges.

It is said that the items sold in the hidden passage are all top-quality products that cannot be bought outside.

But he didn't expect that he could activate it now?

The Domination System... is too overbearing!

The light screen in front of me suddenly distorted, and countless product icons disappeared, replaced by a pitch-black vortex.

The vortex spun and slowly expanded, eventually forming a black hole as tall as a person.

Golden runes shimmered at the edge of the black hole.

【Starlight Shop - Hidden Passage】

[Already activated for the host]

[Time Limit: 10 minutes]

Please choose as soon as possible.

Shen Xi took a deep breath and stepped into the black hole.

The scene before my eyes changed in an instant.

When he could see his surroundings again, he found himself in a small space.

There are no light screens or product icons here, only three floating light spheres.

Three orbs of light, three colors.

The first one is silver-white, with the faint phantom of a battle axe swirling within it.

The second one is pale gold, with countless runes seemingly flowing inside.

The third one is dark black, with a hazy mist covering its surface, making it impossible to see what's inside.

Shen Xi's gaze fell on the three orbs of light.

【Starry Rhythm Uniform (Equipment)】

Price: 20000 Gold Coins (10000 after 50% discount)

[Note: Attributes can be viewed after purchase]

【Starry Sky Badge (Item)】

Price: 30000 Gold Coins (15000 after 50% discount)

[Note: Attributes can be viewed after purchase]

【Starlight Guardian Mark (Special)】

Price: 10000 Gold Coins (5000 after 50% discount)

[Note: Attributes can be viewed after purchase]

Shen Xi's pupils contracted slightly.

All three things begin with "starlight".

And the prices aren't cheap.

The most expensive Starshine Badge still costs 15000 gold coins even after the discount.

The cheapest Star Guardian Mark, even after the discount, still costs 5000.

But what captivated him most was the Starry Night Rhythm uniform.

Although the stats aren't visible, since it's from a hidden shop and is an item, it must be much better than what he got.

but……

He glanced at his gold coin balance.

11600 gold coins.

You can only buy the Starlight Rhythm Uniform or the Starlight Guardian Mark.

The problem is that you can't see the attributes of these things, and you only know if they're worth it after you buy them.

What if I overpay?

Shen Xi fell silent.

The Starshine Rhythm Uniform—if Shen Xi remembered correctly, the Starshine Mage wore this very uniform in his previous life to fight the Lion God of War. At that time, the Lion God of War had already become a veteran war god, but he still managed to fight the Starshine Mage to a draw. And in that battle, Liu Xinghui was still wearing this uniform, which shows its great effectiveness.

Shen Xi was now even more hesitant; if he bought it, he would only have 1600 gold coins left.

No, he also needs to save some money for equipment repairs.

He glanced at the durability of his equipment...

Bone-Rotting Battle Axe: 58/65

The Mine Owner's Bone Blade: 56/60

Bone Nightmare Boots: 40/40

Bone Spike Leggings: 40/40

Power Bracelet: None

The Stormcloak needs repairing; its durability is almost gone.

Repair costs...

He remembered that the shop had a repair function; the higher the equipment's durability, the more expensive the repair. A silver-level piece of equipment would cost around 500-1000 gold coins to fully repair.

Shen Xi gritted her teeth.

"I choose..."

His gaze swept over three things.

"Starlight Rhythm Uniform," he said in a deep voice.

Purchase successful!

[Deducted Gold Coins: 10000]

[Remaining Gold Coins: 1600]

The moment the ball of light landed in my palm, a warm current flowed from my fingertips into my body.

It wasn't the kind of heat that comes from attribute enhancement, but rather... how to put it, it was like being enveloped by something. Warm, gentle, yet carrying an irresistible sense of oppression.

Shen Xi looked down.

The Starlight Rhythm uniform was now fully donned. It was as light as a feather, yet it covered the entire body, every detail exuding the aura of the starry night.

The hood hung down behind the shoulders, its edges trimmed with silver thread, like a ray of light cascading down from the Milky Way. The hood was deep, covering most of the face when pulled up, leaving only the outline of the jawline visible. The lining was a deep indigo blue, like a frozen night sky, and upon closer inspection, one could see tiny specks of light flickering within it.

The blouse was a stand-up collar, fitted at the waist. The silver-gray fabric shimmered with a faint starlight, not a glaring brilliance, but rather like moonlight spilling through a thin mist, hazy and soft. The collar and cuffs were inlaid with extremely fine silver runes, which flickered with his slight breathing. The hem hung slightly, just covering his belt, and swayed gently with his movements, creating shimmering fragments of light.

The cloak cascaded down from her shoulders, reaching her calves. It was almost translucent, like a veil woven from starlight, but as the light shifted, countless tiny points of light could be seen flowing slowly within it, like a miniature galaxy. The edges of the cloak were irregularly shaped, as if gently torn by the night wind, giving it an exceptionally dynamic appearance.

The bottoms are simple and neat trousers, also silver-gray, with straight creases and invisible three-dimensional tailoring at the knees and lower back to ensure unrestricted movement. The trousers are naturally tucked into the boots, and the surface also has a star-like sheen, but it is more subtle than the top.

The boots cover the ankle, conforming to the shape of the foot, and the upper is also outlined with simple patterns of runic silver lines. When stepping on the ground, they are so light that they make almost no sound. The patterns on the soles faintly form a star pattern, and with each step, it is as if a small star map is briefly imprinted on the ground.

The entire uniform is seamless, without any superfluous decorations or cumbersome parts. Every line is simple and clean, yet the details conceal the secrets of starlight.

When Shen Xi's thoughts stirred, his hood would automatically pull up, his cloak would gently flutter, and the starlight around his body would faintly illuminate. At that moment, it was as if he were truly wearing the entire night sky on his body.

When he chose to conceal his other equipment, the Bone Nightmare Boots, Bone Thorn Leggings, Storm Cloak... all disappeared, leaving only the Starlight Rhythm Uniform.

【Name: Starlight Rhythm Uniform】

[Type: Special Equipment]

[Quality: Diamond Grade]

Defense: None

【Durability: Never wears out】

[Special Effects:]

[1. Starlight Concealment: When equipped, all armor and accessories, except for weapons, can be hidden, and the equipment effect remains in effect. The concealment state can be controlled by the host's will.]

[2. Starlight Shelter: Automatically adjusts temperature to adapt to environments ranging from -50℃ to 80℃; automatically repairs, restoring 1% durability of other equipment per hour (this equipment requires no repair); automatically cleans, keeping it perpetually clean.]

[3. Starfall Intimidation: When the wearer is within the Starfall City area, all enemy players with lower reputation than the wearer will automatically have all attributes reduced by 10%. This effect cannot be exempted or dispelled.]

[4. Starlight Edict: The equipment user can issue a mandatory quest to any other player in Starlight City. The quest must be deemed reasonable by the system (suitable for the recipient's current level, strength, and actual situation). The recipient cannot refuse, and the quest cannot be transferred. The quest cannot be issued to the equipment holder themselves. A quest can be successfully issued once per day.]

[Note: This is a treasure of Starshine City. Wear it, and you will be the master of Starshine City.]

Shen Xi stared at the line of text, her pupils slightly contracting.

Diamond grade.

Never wears out.

The four special effects are all incredibly outrageous.

He took a deep breath, a thought flashing through his mind...

His Bone Nightmare Boots, Bone Thorn Leggings, Storm Cloak, Bone Concealment Hat, Power Bracelet... all disappeared.

But upon closer inspection, all the equipment effects were still present, they were just invisible.

Only that Starlight Rhythm uniform, its silver-gray sheen subtly shimmering in the moonlight.

"interesting."

Shen Xi stretched her limbs, feeling no restriction whatsoever, but rather even more at ease than before. Although the Storm Cloak was concealed, the feeling of being able to unleash a death storm at any moment remained.
